Chapter Seven
Everything kicked off when Rose made the first move, diving for Elijah and kicking him in the shins.
"Aaah!" He yelled, but then he slammed Rose into the wall and dove at Dean.
…...
"Bonnie, can't you go into some sort of trance thing and see how they're doing?" Jeremy asked. Jeremy, Bonnie, Sam, Matt, and Elena were back at the Salvatore boarding house, huddled together in the middle of the living room.
"I can try- but I don't really think I want to," Bonnie said. The last time she had been in a trance, she had been possessed and had freed an evil Vampire from a tomb, and both her and Jeremy had nearly been killed.
"Please, Bonnie," Sam said, "My brother's in there."
"You just have to tune into the fight and see what's happening. No-one will be out to get you there," Matt said.
"Bonnie, please," Elena said.
Bonnie thought for a moment. Then she sighed in resignation. "Fine. Go get me a candle and something of Rose's, Katherine's, Castiel's, or Deans."
"I'll go get the candle," Jeremy said, standing up and heading to the attic.
"We'll get the stuff," Elena said as she and Matt stood up and followed Jeremy.
"Thank you," Sam said to Bonnie. "He's my brother, you know? I can't live without him."
"I understand," Bonnie said. Suddenly Jeremy came running back in with a blue candle and a box of matches.
"Got 'em!" Jeremy said. He laid them in front of Bonnie, then sat down on the other side of her.
"Hey, we actually can't find anything of Rose's, Castiel's, Katherine's, or Dean's," Matt said as he and Elena walked hand-in-hand back in the room. They sat in front of Bonnie, so now the five made a circle.
"Can you use me in any way?" Sam said. "Dean is my brother."
"I can try," Bonnie said doubtfully. "Please light the candle, while I channel my energy," She directed to Jeremy. Jeremy lit the candle as Bonnie took Sam's hand and concentrated intensely.
"Okay, I'm ready," Bonnie said. "If anything goes wrong it's your fault."
Bonnie sighed and stared into the candle flame...
…...
"How do you think they are?" Caroline said for about the hundredth time in ten minutes.
"I don't know, Caroline," Stefan said also for the hundredth time.
Both Stefan and Caroline were really worried. Of course they were, Stefan for Rose and Caroline for Dean.
Damon was wandering around the tomb by himself, obsessed with the mystery of his soulmate. Not that he needed one. He was fine, just fine all by himself.
"Do you think they're okay? Do you think Dean's okay? Do you think they're winning?" Caroline said again.
Stefan thought he might actually have to kill her.
…...
"Dean! Behind you!" Rose yelled as she hit Matthew over the head, then kicked him where it hurt.
Dean whirled around to see Elijah jumping at him. Dean ducked and simultaneously reached into his jacket to pull out a silver-coated stake, which he slammed into Elijah's heart. Elijah coughed a bit and then pulled it out.
Katherine jumped at Klaus as he swung his arm at Castiel. She tackled him to the ground, but he was older and stronger so he flipped her up against the wall and hit her. He was diving for her neck when Castiel kicked him.
…...
Bonnie was in in the fight.
Not literally, she wasn't fighting, but she was seeing the fight first-hand.
Through Dean's eyes.
"Bonnie? Bonnie, are you there?" Jeremy said.
"What's happening?" Sam said anxiously.
"Bonnie?" Elena said, not anxious for the fight, but for her friend. She remembered only too well what happened last time she was in a trance.
"I'm fine... they're fine..." Bonnie breathed. Her grip on Sam's hand tightened though, as if seeing something unsettling occur.
Matt couldn't help but wonder what Bonnie was seeing. What Bonnie had seen. What Bonnie could see. All because she was a Witch. All because of her heritage.
"How is Dean? How are they doing?" Sam said, leaning in towards Bonnie.
"Fine... fine..." Bonnie murmured. She was distracted by the fight.
"Are they winning?" Elena asked.
There was no reply.
…...
Elijah drop-kicked Rose, but as she fell back Katherine sprang at him from the front, which distracted him enough that Dean could get a stake though his heart and Rose could snap off his head. That done, Katherine teamed up with Castiel to take on Matthew and Rose and Dean tackled Klaus...
…...
"BONNIE!" Everyone yelled at Bonnie, but she still didn't awaken from her trance.
Bonnie didn't awaken, but she said two words which changed everything:
"One down."
"Who!" Sam yelled.
Jeremy whipped out his phone and texted that informaton to Caroline.
…...
"Someone's dead!" Caroline said.
"Who?" Damon said. By now he had returned to Caroline and Stefan.
"Bonnie won't say, she's stuck in a trance," Caroline said. "Oh please not Dean..."
"Not Rose," Stefan said.
"And we're just stuck in here," Damon said, "Great."
…...
It was half an hour later that Bonnie finally spoke again.
"It's over," she said.
"What happened?" Sam asked.
"Four are dead."
…...
"Four are dead," Caroline read aloud, just as three shadows materialised in front of them.
