Naruto walked down the street looking for Vicki it's been a week since she was turned, and she's been busy. There has been 4 bodies with their throats torn out, he had noticed that they all were people who Vicki has had a problem with in the past. He had been covering them up, it would also seem that she accidentally turned one of her victims, who he had staked he just needed to dispose of the body.
Naruto snapped out of his thoughts when his phone rang, "Hello?"
"We found her, she's at the school." Stefan said
"Be right there." Naruto said before he hung up 'She must be going after Tyler.' he thought before he sped off
Mystic Falls High
"All right, later, man." Tyler said walking out to his car, "See you, bro!" his friend said driving off as Tyler put his duffel in the trunk of his car, before he walk around and got into the car and put the key in the ignition when
"Hi, Ty." Vicki said with her head down causing Tyler to jump
"Whoa," Tyler said startled before he squinted his eyes "Vicki?" he asked "Everyone's looking for you!"
"I know." Vicki whispered shivering
"What's wrong, Vick?" Tyler asked
"I'm so cold." Vicki said
"You on drugs!? Everyone thinks you're off on a bender." Tyler said
"I wish." Vicki whispered with a snort
"What happened in those woods, Vicki? Those kids that were killed. What did you see?" Tyler asked
Vicki looked up getting her hair out of her face before she turned to Tyler and hugged him "I'm so scared."
"Come here. It's okay. I'll take you home." Tyler said hugging her back as he pulled away to start the car
"I can't control it." Vicki said panting
"Control what?" Tyler asked confused
"I am so hungry, Ty. And it won't go away." Vicki said
"What are you on? What drugs did you take?" Tyler asked before Vicki grabbed the sides of his head and placed hers on his shoulder
"I want it. I am so hungry, Ty." Vicki whispered
"Okay look, I'll get you something to eat. Just sit back. Look, lets just get you home, okay?" Tyler asked as he pushed her back gently only for Vicki to vamp out and growl at him, "Whoa! Vicki! What is wrong with you?!" Tyler said falling out of the car and crawling away, as Vicki jumped on him and prepared to bite him only for Stefan to pull her off of him in time.
"Aah! Let go of me!" Vicki said struggling as Stefan held onto her, Tyler stood up and almost ran into Damon
Looking to Stefan and Vicki, Tyler asked "What's going on here, Stefan? What's wrong with her?"
"You don't talk." Damon said
"Screw you, dude." Tyler retorted
"Dude" really?, "dude"?" Damon mocked smirking
"Damon, dont!" Stefan said
"Oh come on. Who's gonna miss this idiot?" Damon asked before Tyler punched him, causing Damon to narrow his eyes
"Don't you hurt him." Vicki said before Naruto appeared and grabbed Tyler by the throat before he compelled him.
"Forget what you saw here tonight. None of us were here." before he threw Tyler completely over his car, and sped over and grabbed Vicki ,when Tyler got up all of them were gone.
Gilbert House
Elena woke up and laid there for a moment before she sighed, and got up and went into the bathroom, to see Jeremy who just got done brushing his teeth "Sorry." she said turning around to close the door
"Oh, no, it's cool, I'm done." Jeremy said causing Elena to come back in as Jeremy backed away
"You're up early. Where are you going?" Elena asked as Jeremy was walking into his room before he turned back
"Police station. They're organizing the search party for Vicki, so…" he trailed off
"Wait. Shouldn't you be going to school?" Elena asked
"What? You're kidding me, right?" Jeremy asked in returned
"You shouldn't skip school. If they find her, we'll know. That's what cell phones are for." Elena said
"Yeah, your lips keep movin'. I don't know why." Jeremy replied before leaving
Mystic Falls High School
Matt was walking through the Halloween decorated hallway when his phone rung "Yeah?" Matt picked up
"Matty?" Vicki's voice replied
Matt's eyes widen before he leaned against the locker "Vicki, where are you? Are you okay?" he asked
"Yeah. I'm okay." Vicki replied sitting in Stefan's room along with the vampire brothers
"Tell me where you are, and I'll come get you." Matt said
"No. Matty, I just need some time to figure things out. Just know that I am okay, okay ? Please don't worry about me." Vicki said before she hung up on him
Salvatore Boarding House
"I don't understand why I have to stay cooped up here. Why can't I just go home?" Vicki asked
"You've been a vampire for a couple days, Vicki. You know why." Damon said reading the newspaper
"You're changing, Vicki, and it's not something you wanna do alone. We just want to help you." Stefan replied
"There's nothin' about that Logan guy I killed in here. Not a word. Someone's covering it up." Damon said throwing the newspaper down, before he picked up the compass
"What is that?" Vicki asked
"This is a very special, very old compass. What was Logan Fell doing with it? Aren't you curious?" Damon said looking to Stefan
"Well, if you're so worried that somebody's onto you, why don't you just leave town, Damon?" Stefan asked
"We should all be worried." Damon said looking at Stefan
"Hey, um, I'm hungry. Do you have anything to eat?" Vicki asked Stefan, who got up and got a mug off the desk
"Here." Stefan said handing her the mug
"What is it?" Vicki asked
"It's what you're craving." Stefan said sitting down
"Heh. Don't lie to the girl. It's so not what you're craving, but it'll do in a pinch, right, Stef?" Damon asked
"What is it?" Vicki asked smelling the cup
"Yeah, what is it? Is it skunk? Saint Bernard? Bambi?" asked Damon with a smirk
"Go on. Give it a try." Stefan said ignoring his brother as Vicki took a sip of the blood
"She's new. She needs people blood. She can't sustain on that stuff." Damon said
"Yeah, why can't I have people blood?" Vicki asked
"Yeah." Damon said
"Because it's wrong to pray on innocent people, Vicki." Stefan said
"You don't have to kill to feed. Just find someone really tasty and then erase their memory afterwards. It's so easy." said Damon
"No, no, no. There's no guarantee that you can control yourself, okay? It takes years to learn that. You could easily kill somebody, and then you have to carry that with you for the rest of your life, which, if I haven't made clear, is eternity." Stefan retorted
"Don't listen to him. He walks on a moral plane way out of our eye line. I say snatch, eat, erase." Damon said
"Hey, look at me. We choose our own path. Our values and our actions, they define who we are." Stefan said as Damon shook his head
"Okay, Count Depac. I'm outta here." Damon said before he left the room
"Can I have some more?" Vicki asked sucking her finger
Downstairs
Damon walked to the door when the doorbell rang, smirking Damon opened the door to see Elena as he leaned on the door
"Is Stefan here?" Elena asked
"Yep!" Damon answered
"Where is he?" Elena asked annoyed
"And good morning to you, little miss " I'm on a mission"." Damon said
"How can you be so arrogant and glib after everything that you've done?" Elena asked crossing her arms
"And how can you be so brave and stupid to call a vampire arrogant and glib?" Damon asked
"If you wanted me dead, I'd be dead." Elena said
"Yes, you would." Damon replied
"But I'm not." Elena said a little smugly
"Yet." Damon said causing Elena to take a deep breath
"Where is Stefan?" she asked
"He's upstairs singing "the rain in Spain". Knock yourself out." Damon said walking outside as Elena walked in and closed the door with Damon smiling before he left
"Stefan?" Elena called out, when she heard the floorboard creak she looked behind her, and called "Stefan?"
"Yes." Stefan said from the steps
Elena looked up to him and asked "It's been a month, where is Vicki?"
"She's upstairs." Stefan said walking down to her
"What happens now? Because my brother is out there searching for her with the rest of the town. What do I tell him?" she asked
"I'm working with her, but it's gonna take time. She has a very volatile and impulsive personality. She's a drug user. I mean, all that's gonna play a part in how she responds to this." Stefan explained
"So, she's a vampire with issues? What am I supposed to do? Because I'm lying to everyone that I care about. What's gonna happen to her?"
"I'm gonna keep her here with me until I know that she's safe." Stefan answered when Vicki came down the stairs
"How long is that?" she asked getting there attention
"We can talk about that later." Stefan said causing Vicki to roll her eyes
"Hey, Vicki, How are you?" Elena asked
"How am I? You're kidding, right?" Vicki asked with a raised eyebrow, before Naruto entered the house getting a glare from Vicki, and Elena before Vicki ran back upstairs causing him to sigh.
Running up after Naruto entered Stefan's room to see Vicki in the shadows of the room with her back to him "Vicki." he said
"How long?" Vicki asked
"Huh?" Naruto asked raising an eyebrow
"How long have you've been a vampire?"
"Let's just say I knew Jesus." Naruto said sitting beside Vicki "I had got all my abilities back after the crash."
"Why wouldn't you tell me?" Vicki asked turning to him
"Because when a human finds out about us, any hope for a normal life is gone."
"And any hope I had for a normal life is gone." Vicki said
"Not necessarily." Naruto replied getting her attention "My first wife has made this community for vampires trying to live peacefully. I told her about you, and she said she would be willing to help you control your bloodlust."
"Your married?!" Vicki asked getting a sheepish chuckle from Naruto
"Yeah, I have 5 wives."
"How do you know none of them cheat on you?" Vicki asked
"Because, if they touch another man sexually they'll feel sick to their stomach. Besides they have clones of me around if they are ever in the mood."
"Clones?" Vicki asked
Naruto smirked before a shadow clone appeared beside him
"Is that a vampire thing?" Vicki asked staring at the clone in shock
"It's a Naruto thing." Naruto smirked, before his clone vanished
"Anyway, what if I don't want to go?" Vicki asked
"Just think about it." Naruto said
Mystic Grill
Mayor Lockwood just finished speaking with a cop, when he walked back to his wife, sliding into the booth Richard said "We never should have trusted that Logan…" lowering his voice "Weasel with the watch."
"How many are we dealing with?" Carol asked
"Well, the coroner thinks just one. Something about the wound radius and the jaw pattern." Richard said
"Are we in danger? I mean, if it found the watch, then it knows we know, and could it come after us? A-and should I even be saying "it"? Or, or is it a he or a she?" Carol asked worried
"If it has any historical knowledge of the town, then it'll know where the watch came from, so yes, we could very much be in danger" Richard said
"So what do we do?" Carol asked
"Just keep it quiet. We can't have the entire town aware of this. We need to find it before it finds us." Richard said unaware that Damon has been listening to their conversation the entire time.
Sheriff's Office
A shadow clone walked into Liz's office "Naruto." Liz said looking up from her paperwork as he closed the door "Shouldn't you be in school?"
"Free period." The clone said as he sat across from her "How you been Liz?"
"I've been ok, how are you doing, and how are your studies going?" Liz asked
"All A's, I have enough credits to graduate, debating if I should. Caroline threatened to castrate me if I do graduate before her so theres that." Naruto said with a shrug as Liz giggled
"Well you know how Caroline is, she just wants to have the perfect high school experience." Liz replied
"Yeah." Naruto nodded as Liz went back to her paperwork "So how's the vampire hunt going?"
Liz froze before she looked up to Naruto who raised his eyebrows "How do you know?"
"Animal attacks? Not very clever lies. So what's going on?"
"I'm not going to talk to you about. Just stay out of it." Liz said seriously
"Stay out of it? None of you know how to track a vampire, let alone fight one." Naruto replied
"We'll take care of it, the only thing you need to do is go to school."
"Your serious, I'm not gonna let you and your band of amateurs hunt a vampire by yourselves." Naruto said
"We're doing fine."
"Really, what's the vampires gender? How old is it? Is it a blonde, is it short, or tall, does it have any defining characteristics like tattooes, or piercings?"
Liz sighed as she couldn't answer any of those questions "I'm your gaurdian why don't you just do as I say?"
"So you want to take your guardianship seriously, that's the reason you called off our relationship. I get it, but my parents raised me to do what I think is right, and you hunting a vampire you know nothing about ain't right. I'll have the vampire for you by midnight." Naruto said before leaving getting a sigh from Liz
Mystic Falls High
Matt was putting up his books in his locker when Tyler walked over "Hey man!" he greeted
"Hey!" Matt returned
"I heard they're putting together a search party for Vicki." Tyler said
"She just called. She's okay." Matt said looking to Tyler before turning back
"Ooh good. That's great. I figured you must have been goin' out of your mind." Tyler said
"Little bit. Yeah." Matt replied
"I was just gonna offer. You know, if there's anything I could do." Tyler said
"I appreciate it." Matt said thankful
Bonnie was locking her locker when Caroline came over she smiled"I've got your costume. It's all here." she said handing Bonnie a bag, Bonnie pulled out a witch costume
"Seriously?" Bonnie asked incredulously
"Come on. Can someone please be excited that it's Halloween? I just wanna have fun, you know, just some silly, fluffy, Damon free fun." Caroline said before she looked around "Hey, have you seen Elena? Do we know what she's wearing?" Caroline asked
"I was with Grams all weekend. I haven't talked to her. Maybe she's with Stefan." Bonnie said with a shrug, she and Elena haven't really been hanging out since she heard about Elena's and Naruto's confrontation
"Riding to his castle on his white horse." Caroline grumbled
"Don't be bitter. It provokes wrinkles." Bonnie said amused
"Whatever, do you know where Naruto disappeared to?" Caroline asked
"Said he had to go take care of something." Bonnie shrugged
Salvatore Boarding House
Everyone was sitting at the table "Coffee is our friend. It's the caffeine. It circulates through our veins, and it warms our body so we're not so cold to the touch." Stefan explained to a board Vicki who was leaning on Naruto's shoulder, while he was eating popcorn
"Well, what if I wanna drink human blood?" Vicki asked
"You're gonna have to learn to live with that urge and fight it on a daily basis one day at time." Stefan said
"Oh god! Don't start with that whole 12 steps thing. School counselor has been down that road, and it doesn't work for me." Vicki said with a sigh
"It can work. It's your choice, Vicki."
"So you've never tasted human blood?" Vicki asked as Elena looked to Stefan curiously
"Not in a long time." Stefan said after a moment
"How long?" Vicki asked
"Going on 60 years." Naruto said looking at Stefan
"What about you?" Vicki asked
"I drink human blood on a daily basis." Naruto said with a shrug "Blood bags, or from the source doesn't matter to me. We're predators, not monsters; blood keeps us alive like a human drinking water. Only difference is that when we are on human blood we are at full strength, and are in better control of ourselves, some of us more than others anyway. But since your new you still need to adjust. also human blood is highly addictive, and you need to learn control first before you feed on your first human." Naruto said as Stefan who was looking down, looked up at Naruto
"No, she can't just feed on a human."
"We're talking about a vampire here, not some house broken pitbull. It's impossible to go cold turkey when your new. At this time our bloodlust is through the roof, I'm impressed Vicki hasn't come across the table and rip Elena's head off." Elena sat back as Vicki looked at her before she turned to Naruto "Question?"
"Does this sketchy feeling ever go away? It's like I have a massive hangover." Vicki said but before Naruto could answer she stood up abruptly "This daylight thing is a bitch. I need more blood. Where's your bathroom? I have to pee. Why do I have to pee? I thought I was dead." Vicki ranted as she left the room
Naruto chuckled while Stefan sighed and shook his head, before turning to Elena "I'm gonna get her some more. All right. I'll be quick." Stefan said getting up and leaving as Naruto put his feet on the table still eating popcorn
Vicki walked back into the room "False alarm. My body's feeling really funky. It's a good funk, but it's weird." she said before picking up a phone and dialing a number
"Hmm, who are you calling?" Elena asked
"Here we go." Naruto thought as he got more comfortable and watched smiling as if he was watching a comedy movie
"Jeremy." Vicki said with a smile
"Vicki, you can't see Jeremy anymore." Elena said
"Oh come on don't you start. I'm gonna see whoever I wanna see." Vicki said
"Even though you could hurt him?" Elena asked
"I would never hurt Jeremy." Vicki retorted
"I know you think that but I can't take that risk. You're gonna have to let Jeremy go now." Elena said stepping closer to Vicki
"Oh really?" Vicki said placing the phone back on the table "And how long have you been preparing the "you're not good enough "speech? I'm assuming it predates the whole vampire thing." she said
"All I am saying is Jeremy is not getting involved in any of this. I mean it, Vicki." Elena said before she looked to Naruto who was chuckling to himself
"Or what?" Vicki asked before she grabbed Elena by the throat and pushed her against the wall "Let's get one thing straight, you perky little bitch. You had my brother whipped for 15 years. 15 years and when you finally did go out with him it was the happiest I've ever seen him, and then you dumped him. When I look at you that is all I see, just so you know. And I'm gonna see Jeremy whenever I wanna see Jeremy, because I have some fun new toys to play with, and I won't think twice about ripping your little head off. You got it?" Vicki threatened before she let her go as Elena started coughing.
Chuckling louder Naruto stood up finishing his popcorn before he walked over to Vicki and looked at Elena as he put an arm around Vicki's shoulder "Welcome to the world of supernatural creatures." he said before they left Elena in the dinning room
Moments Later
Stefan and Elena were in front of the house as Vicki was still with Naruto "She threatened me." Elena said still massaging her neck
"She's on edge. Imagine every sense in your body operating at super speed. I mean, she's uncomfortable in her own skin. And then when you throw in her other issues…" Stefan explained
"How long before it settles? Hours? Days? Weeks?" Elena asked
"There's no rule book." Stefan answered
"Well, how long before you learned to control it?" Elena asked
"A while, But I didn't have anybody helping me. I had to do it on my own. The thing is it's hard to resist certain people especially when you're new, it's difficult to separate your feelings. Love, lust, anger, desire it can all blur into one urge: hunger." Stefan explained
"What does that mean?" Elena asked
"It means that Jeremy can't see her, not now. She might not be able to resist him, and she could hurt him." Stefan said
"Or worse."
"I'm not gonna let anybody get hurt." Stefan promised
"I need to get going." Elena said turning away
"Elena." Stefan called
"Please Stefan. There's only so much I can take." Elena said before walking away
Later
Vicki was laying on Stefan's bed, listening to music when Damon walked in, and sat down beside her "What are you doing?" he asked
"Just contemplating the next hundred years, while Naruto goes home to get some blood bags." Vicki said before turning to Damon "Why did you do it?" she asked
"I was …. Bored." Damon said before Vicki sat up a little
"You did this to me out of boredom?" She asked incredulously
"It's one of the pitfalls of eternity." Damon said
Vicki sat up completely and sighed "Now I'm bored. And all I can think about is blood. I just want some blood. I can't think about anything else. What is that about?"
Damon chuckled and said "That'll ease up. You've just been cooped up all day. Let's go." he said holding out his hand
"Where?" Vicki asked with a smile
"Your life was pathetic. Your afterlife doesn't have to be." Damon said, before Vicki smiled and took his hand, and they walked downstairs, where Stefan was walking up, as they moved to the door
"What are you doing?" Stefan asked
"She's been cooped up in your room all day. She's not Anne Frank." Damon said opening the door only for Stefan to close it
"No no . Hey, hey...Now's not the time for this." Stefan said
"If you're gonna teach her. Teach her. Show her what it's all about." Damon said
"She could hurt someone." Stefan replied
"I'm not takin' her to Disneyland. We're going in the front yard. Come on." Damon said opening the door, as they all walked to the front yard, as Stefan shook his head
"Bad idea Damon." he said
"She's a vampire Stefan, she should know the perks." Damon retorted
"Like what?" Vicki asked
"Like.…" Damon said before he used his super speed to appear behind her, Vicki looked around for Damon when she felt her shoulder being tapped turning around she saw Damon smiling
"Whoa. How did you do that?" Vicki asked as Damon did it again and whistled to get her attention "Ho ho ho ho."
"Come on Vicki, live a little. No pun intended." Damon said gesturing for her to try, Vicki smiled and used her super speed and ran away
Stefan and Damon looked around for her when they saw Naruto walking over to them with a blood bag "Why are you guys outside?"
"Damon taught Vicki how to use her vamp-speed." Stefan said
"And she ran away." Naruto replied with a sigh, turning around "Come with me."
Uzumaki Manor
Naruto and the brothers stood in his library before he tapped a button on the table and a 3D version of Mystic Falls appeared before them
"What the hell?" Damon asked as he reached out to grab the map but his hand went through it.
"Just finished this, it'll tell me where every active supernatural being is in Mystic Falls." Naruto said as he formed a ram seal and immediately 8 red dots appeared "Well, it seems there's 4 other vampires in town."
"Which one is Vicki?" Stefan asked
"Give me a minute." Naruto said before he concentrated and the map shifted to an birds eye view of Vicki's house "She's gone home."
"I'll get her back." Stefan said then he sped away before Naruto could stop him
"Idiot, how does he hope to get into the house." Naruto said with a sigh before he turned off the map.
"I'll see ya, I have to check on something." Damon said getting a nod from Naruto who pulled out his phone, and called someone
"Hey Hilary, give Cersei the phone." Naruto said as he went up to his room and went to his closet before pulling out some black pants
With Vicki
Vicki arrived home, and unlocked the door with her key that she kept under the flower pot by the door, opening the door, Vicki attempted to get inside but couldn't "What the hell?" she asked herself trying to get in before she sighed in annoyance "Matt?"
"Vicki? Is that you?" Matt asked walking toward the door
"Hey." Vicki smiled
"Get in here." Matt said before he stepped out and hugged her tightly, Vicki smiled before she heard the blood running through his veins, before she pulled away.
"In a minute. I..." Vicki trailed off trying to think of a way to get inside
"Please come inside." Matt nearly begged, before Vicki noticed she wasn't stuck anymore and stepped into the house
Moments later the two were in the kitchen with Vicki sitting at the table "I've been worried. Thank God you're okay. Where were you, Vic?" Matt asked as he sat a plate with a hotdog and tater tots in front of her, before he sat down
"It's no big deal. Drop it already." Vicki said
"3 people were murdered in the woods. The cops were lookin' for you. They wanna question you." Matt replied
"They know where I live." Vicki retorted with a shrug, as Matt was getting annoyed with how laid back she was being
"Everyone was worried about you." Matt said
"I'm back now. Just let it go." Vicki replied
"Are you kidding? I had a freakin' search party out lookin' for you while you were off on your crazy drug trip, and you want me to let it go?" Matt asked annoyed
Vicki took a deep breath as she suddenly envisioned herself tackling Matt and drinking every drop of blood in his body, before she went through it physically she slammed the fork in her hand onto the plate shattering the plate "My head hurts." she said grabbing her head
"You think?" Matt asked ignoring the show of strength, before the doorbell rung getting their attention, answering the door Matt saw Stefan outside "Stefan, what are you doing here?" Matt asked confused
"Is Vicki home?" Stefan asked
"Yeah." Matt said
"Can I see her, please?" Stefan asked,
As Matt was about to invite Stefan inside Vicki spoke "Don't let him in. I don't want him in here."
Matt, and Stefan looked at Vicki before Matt glared at Stefan "Did he do something to you?" he asked with a glare
"No, I just don't want him in here." Vicki said
"Just let me come in so I can explain what's going on." Stefan said
"Please, leave Stefan." Matt said before he closed the door on Stefan
Uzumaki Manor
Naruto wearing his costume (He's wearing Wade Wilson's mercenary suit from Origins of Wolverine) ran a hand through his now black hair, as he looked at his phone while he was on his way out of the house when the doorbell rang, looking out the window he saw some kids outside in their costumes. Smirking Naruto allowed his face to shift as he swung the door open before he snarled at the kids getting screams of fear before they ran, causing him to laugh loudly as his phone rung. While his features receded Naruto answered his phone still chuckling "Hello?"
"Naruto, I need your help." Stefan said
"Let me guess, she wouldn't let Matt invite you in." Naruto said walking to his 2007 Tjaarda Mustang,
"Yeah, we need to get her out of there, she could kill Matt."
"Listen to me Stefan that's not our problem. We're vampires, not superheroes. It took me a long time to figure that out, your aunt Cersei had to beat my hero complex out of me for 300 years." Naruto said sitting in his car placing his phone on speaker and putting it in his lap, as he started to wrap his hands up in black bandages
"If she kills him, it'll crush her." Stefan said
"Fine look, knowing Matt he'll drive her crazy, probably already has, just stick around they'll leave soon." Naruto said
"Alright." Stefan said before he hung up, as Naruto finished wrapping his hands he sped off in his car on his way to the school
Mystic Falls High
The Halloween carnival was going on, as Bonnie and Caroline dressed as witches stood outside, as Tyler in his Spartan costume walked over to them "Cider for the ladies. It's a Lockwood special." he said handing Caroline a cup
"No way. Last year I was hung over until Thanksgiving." Bonnie said when he offered her the cup
Caroline scoffed "Lightweight. I am going to drink until someone is hot enough to makeout with."
"Sounds like a plan." Tyler said before he and Caroline touched cups
Bonnie shook her head before she saw Naruto walking up "Hey!"
Smiling Naruto hugged and kissed Bonnie and Caroline , before they ran their hand through his hair "You dyed it?" Caroline asked as Tyler walked away
"Yeah, thought I'd do the costume justice."
"And the swords?" Bonnie asked looking at the sheathed katanas on Naruto's back
"Props." Naruto shrugged before he looked at them "So witches huh?" he asked amused
"Her idea." Bonnie said pointing to Caroline.
Mystic Grill
Richard, and Carol were sitting in a booth at the grill, drinking "How many martinis have you had?"
"Oh. Don't start with me." Carol said annoyed
"Can we go now? We're late for the Halloween party. Let's go." Richard said letting out a heavy sigh after he finished his drink
"So go ahead. I'd like to finish my drink." Carol said
Richard shool his head and left, after a moment of stirring her martini Carol looked over her shoulder to see Damon sitting 2 booths down staring at her before he raised his drink to her.
Smiling Carol turned around, before she looked up just as Damon sat down across from her
"Let me guess. Daisy Buchanan. I love a good "gatsby" look." Damon said with a charming smile
"I've met you before. Aren't you Caroline Forbes' boyfriend?" Carol asked
"Ah, she had a schoolgirl crush on me but...It was cute but I had to let her down easy." Damon lied
"It's Damon, right?" Carol asked
"Ah, you remember?" Damon asked smirking
"Well, you have a face that's hard to forget. What's your last name Damon?" Carol asked
"Salvatore." Damon said
"Salvatore." Carol repeated surprised
"Mm hmm." Damon nodded
"Are you any relation to Zach?" Carol asked
"Zach's my uncle." Damon said before he leaned forward and attempted to compel her "How do you know Zach?"
Carol looked at him weirdly "Are you okay?" she asked
Damon surprised said "Yeah. I think there's something in my eye."
"Well, I know Zach from the founders council." Carol said as Damon sat back and noticed her braclet "You know the Salvatores were one of this town's original settlers."
"Yes, they were. I wasn't aware that Zach was a member. I just recently moved back home and haven't really had a chance to meet many of his friends." Damon said
"Well, will you tell him to return my calls? I've left several messages." Carol replied
"Zach went out of town for a bit. But if it's about the Vervain..."
"You know about the Vervain?" Carol asked in surprise
"Well, I'm a Salvatore. Of course I do." Damon said
"Of course." Carol smiled
"Hmm. Cheers." Damon said before they tapped glasses before Damon signalled for another round
Mystic Falls High
Elena and Jeremy walked into the school, where they ran into Matt, "You went with last year's costume too, huh?" Matt asked as he and Elena wore matching costumes
"Yeah. I didn't know that I was coming till an hour ago." Elena said
"Me neither." Matt replied smiling before he looked to Jeremy " And you're going as...you?"
Rolling his eyes Jeremy walked away, without saying a word
"He's not talking to me right now. We got into fight." Elena said
"Yeah, I got into it with Vic too, when she got home. I'm trying not to smother her tonight, but part of me didn't wanna let her out of my sight." Matt replied
"She's here?" Elena asked surprised
"Yeah, you can't miss her. She's a vampire." Matt replied with a chuckle
"Where did Jeremy go?" Elena asked worriedly looking around
"Elena what's the matter?" Matt asked confused
"I..I've gotta find him." Elena said before she walked off,
(Vicki was walking through the halls, panting as she bumped into her peers, about to lose control, Vicki was grabbed into a classroom.
Looking around confused, Vicki turned around to see Stefan "What, you're following me now?" she asked annoyed
"You didn't really give me a much of choice." Stefan said before Vicki scoffed and tried to leave only for Stefan to stay in front of her
"Let me out of here." Vicki demanded
"You shouldn't be here Vicki. Crowds like this, makes it even harder for you to keep yourself under control." Stefan said
"I'm fine." Vicki replied
"Really?" asked Stefan in disbelief
"Mm Hmm." Vicki nodded
"No headache? Your stomach's not screaming at you? You're not feeling lightheaded or anxious or cranky like if someone looks at you the wrong way you could just rip their head off? Do you wanna know what that's called? It's called hunger and it's only gonna get worse and worse every minute that you pretend like it's not controlling you." Stefan explained as Vicki looked uncomfortable
"I'll take Naruto up on his idea." Vicki thought to herself before she left the room with Stefan
Mystic Grill
Carol, and Damon, were now sitting beside each other, drinking, and flirting with each other "So you need vervain?"
"Yes. my husband and I only have left what his parents left him, and Zach had promised that he could supply us with more." Carol said tipsy
"Well, I talk to him all the time. So why don't I just ask him?" Damon lied taking another swig of his drink "How much do you need? I mean, how many people, you think?"
"Well, there's our children, of course." Carol said
"Of course." Damon nodded
"And, um, friends, family, and everyone on the council." Carol said
"The council?" Damon asked interesting in knowing if anyone besides the families have joined
"Zach knows how many. But I am so late. My husband is not going to be happy with me." Carol said with a giggle
"Well, are you happy with your husband?" Damon flirted
"You're flirting with me." Carol said smiling
"You flirted with me first." Damon replied with a bigger smile
"True." Carol said nodding
"Let me escort you to the school. It's not safe out there alone. I mean, I've seen 10 vampires tonight." Damon offered
"Heh. well, if only the real ones were as easy to find." Carol said grabbing her purse
"How's that search goin'?" Damon asked
"Oh, we had the founder's party, and anyone who arrived during the day was eliminated as a suspect." Carol said
"Oh." Damon said with a small smirk
"And all the rest were just dead ends, so mmm mmm, I gotta go." Carol said
"Okay." Damon nodded before getting up and taking her hand before they left
Mystic Falls High
Elena was still looking for Jeremy, when she turned around to see Stefan and Vicki "Thank God." she said relieved
"What's the matter?" Stefan asked
"I lost track of Jeremy. I was worried." Elena said
"Jeremy." Vicki thought looking around
"What's goin' on?" Matt asked walking over getting their attention
"Shit." Stefan thought trying to think up something "Hey. uh, everything's fine."
Vicki seeing a chance to go see Jeremy pulled away from Stefan and said "I told you to quit bothering me."
"No. Vicki, don't do this." Elena pleaded
"Matt, he won't leave me alone." Vicki said
"You need to back off, man." Matt warned Stefan
"Matt, it's...it's okay." Elena said worried for Matt's safety if he decided to pick a fight
"No, it's not okay. What the hell is your problem?" Matt asked glaring at Stefan
Elena looked to Vicki only to find her gone "Stefan. She's gone." Elena said getting his attention before Stefan tried to leave only for Matt to grab him, grabbing Matt by his throat Stefan forced him into the wall
"I'm trying to help her." Stefan said frustrated before he left Matt there glaring at his back
Elsewhere
Jeremy was walking around, when Vicki grabbed him and pulled him into her "Whoa. Vic, you scared the hell out of me." Jeremy said
"Sorry. I'm sorry." Vicki said before she kissed him, and they ran away
Outside
Naruto was with Bonnie giving candy to kids having a good time, he had given her the crystal to go with her costume, also telling her the crystals history, when suddenly she asked "What's going on with Vicki?"
Raising an eyebrow Naruto asked in return "You want to talk about this now?"
"Your friend was turned into a vampire by your vampire son." Bonnie said causing him to sigh
"She's killed four people, and she turned Linda Fell by accident. I was lucky enough to find Linda, and kill her. I plan on taking Linda to the council to throw them off our tracks."
"Wouldn't it be suspicious that a girl they know, will turn out to be a vampire?" Bonnie asked
"Only she won't look like Linda, I'm going to place a permanent illusion on her body to make it look like someone they've never seen before." Naruto said before he continued on the original subject "As for Vicki she is showing more control then I thought she would. I have Cersei, and Hilary coming to get her."
"You think she'll want to leave?" Bonnie asked
"She doesn't have a choice. We made a deal, and if she loses, she leaves Mystic Falls for 70 years. Besides, if she leaves she'll be given an awesome job, a bigger house, a car of her choosing, and a steady supply of blood while learning to control her new abilities." Naruto finished with a sigh before he asked "You thought of gaining the ability to siphon magic?"
"I still need time to think, I mean I love my powers, and I would feel cheated if I can only use them when I siphon another witch's magic."
"You don't have to loose your own magic, I can tweak it so that you can keep your own magic." Naruto replied
Bonnie smiled and made to speak when Damon arrived "So where...where'd Caroline run off to?" he asked picking up a piece of candy
"Do yourself a favor, Damon, and don't ask me about Caroline." Bonnie said
"Oh, Bonnie. So loyal." Damon smiled
"Just stay away from her." Bonnie said before Damon noticed the crystal
"You gave her my crystal?" Damon asked Naruto who shrugged
"It was Emily's crystal." Bonnie said causing Damon to look toward her
"She gave that to me, so it's mine, and I'd like it back, please." Damon said with his hand extended
"I'm not giving it to you, if my grams says it's ok to give it to you then I will." Bonnie replied
"Or I could just take it right now." Damon said annoyed before he tried to snatch the crystal from her only for his hand to develop 3rd degree burns causing him to hiss
"Try that again, and I'll reduce that arm to ash." Bonnie said glaring at Damon who looked at her in shock before he glanced to Naruto who was eating some chewy lemonheads chuckling
Inside
Elena was searching for Jeremy, while Vicki and Jeremy walked out the back entrance and continue kissing. Stefan was still in the school standing in the hallway using his super hearing to pick up on Vicki.
Elena saw someone in a hood so she grabbed him turning around "Jeremy." she said only for it to be someone else, causing her to sigh and keep walking
Outside
Jeremy leaning against a school bus kissing Vicki, before he pulled away and said "I was so worried about you."
"I'm fine now, but...I gotta leave." Vicki replied
"Wh...what? Where?" Jeremy asked
"I gotta get out of here, Jer. I just...I can't live at home with Matt. He just doesn't get it." Vicki said
"No, you can't. You can't just leave."
Vicki suddenly had a thought before she said "Come with me. If you come with me, we can be together forever." before they kissed
"Okay. Yeah." Jeremy said with a nod before they kissed passionately and Vicki bit his bottom lip drawing blood "Ow. You're taking that costume a little too far." Jeremy said as Vicki looked at him in a daze "What? What is it?" He asked only for Vicki to like his bleeding him before she took it into her mouth and started to suck his blood before biting him "Vicki! Vicki, what the hell?!"
Naruto who was talking to Damon and Bonnie looked up
"What is it?" Bonnie asked
"I smell blood. Stay here." Naruto said before leaving
Jeremy pushed Vicki away from him, before he saw her vamp out "Oh, my god." he whispered before she walked over to him with a growl "No! stop! Vicki! No! Ah!"
Elena ran out the back entrance, hearing Jeremy yelling, grabbing a wooden plank, she ran over to see Vicki attacking Jeremy "Vicki, no!" she screamed causing Vicki to grunt in annoyance before she threw Jeremy to the ground and walk toward Elena who charged at her with the wodden plank. Blocking the swing, Vicki grabbed Elena and threw her into a pile of garbage nearby.
Vicki made to charge at Elena, but Stefan grabbed her and held her against the bus.
Jeremy who was watching shouted "Vicki!" as Elena got up holding her side, as Vicki pushed Stefan away and dissapeared under the bus
Stefan looked around in shock, before he looked to the two humans "Go. get inside. Go!" he ordered
Elena grabbed Jeremy and ran while Stefan continued searching for Vicki
Naruto who had been watching speedily hopped down from the school and grabbed Vicki who was on her way to Elena and Jeremy before he left a blood clone transformed into Vicki to act like her, before he took her into the shadows
Elena had pulled Jeremy to the school and was about to enter when BVicki (Blood Clone Vicki) threw Jeremy aside and grabbed her before biting her "Ahh!" Elena screamed before on instinct Stefan staked the clone before it deccicated as Jeremy got up screaming
"Vicki! Vicki! Vicki! Vicki!" Jeremy attempted to go to BVicki but Stefan held him back
"Get him out of here." Elena ordered and Stefan immediately obeyed before he called Damon
"What?" asked Damon as he picked up
"I need your help." Stefan said as Elena sat down next to Vicki's body.
Moments Later
Damon arrived to see Elena crying "You should go. I got this." he said
"You did this. This is your fault." Elena said standing up
"You confuse me for someone with remorse." Damon replied before Elena attempted to push him, and when that didn't work she moved for a slap, only for Damon to grab her hand tightly "None of this matters to me, None of it." he said releasing her hand
"People die around you. How could it not matter? It matters, and you know it." Elena replied before she slapped him
Damon looked at her coldly before he flinched forward causing her to gasp and step backwards. Elena could see him forcing himself to stay away from her 'You need to leave. Your wounds are bleeding and you need to leave." he said through gritted teeth before she left
Moments Later
Matt was walking around looking for Vicki when he saw Elena "Elena! Hey, have you seen...Whoa. wh...what happened?" he asked seeing her shoulder wound
"Nothing. some idiot with some fake blood got me. I'm gonna go home and shower." Elena said
"I...I can't find Vicki. She totally bailed on me." Matt said
"I don't know where she is?" Elena asked
"Is this what I'm in for, a lifetime of worrying about her?" Matt asked
"You're a good brother, Matt." Elena said tears welling up in her eyes
"Yeah, Maybe she went home." Matt said tiredly
"Maybe." Elena lied
"Okay." Matt said before walking away, as Elena got into her car and cried
Gilbert House
Elena arrived home to see Stefan was waiting outside "Where is he?" she asked
"Inside." Stefan said still sitting down, before Elena went inside and walked over to Jeremy
"Do you understand what happened tonight?" Elena asked
Jeremy looked at her, tears streaming down his face "No. I don't understand. I mean, I know what I saw, but...I don't understand."
"She was going to kill me." Elena said
"Now she's dead. Vicki's dead." Jeremy replied
"I'm so sorry, Jer." Elena apologized
"Make it stop. It hurts." Jeremy sobbed
"Shh, shh, shh, shh. It's okay. it's okay." Elena said soothingly
"Why does everybody have to die on me?" Jeremy continued to sob
"Oh, my god. come here." Elena said sadly bringing him into a hug
Outside
Stefan was still sitting on the porch, when Elena came out "Are you okay?" she asked
"I, uh...I wanted to help her. But instead, uh...How's he doin'?" Stefan asked
'He's a mess. I don't want him going through this again. He's just a kid." Elena said
"Elena, what can I do? I...What can I do to help? I'll do anything." Stefan begged
"Can you make him forget?" Elena asked
"Elena..." Stefan started
"Stefan, please. I don't know how he'll ever get past this. I just want him to forget everything that happened." Elena interrupted
"If I did it, there's no guarantee that it would work...Because of who I am. Because of how I live. I don't have the ability to do it right." Stefan said not knowing how the wolf blood is affecting his compulsion
"I can do it. If this is what you want...I'll do it." Damon said walking up
Elena turned to him and looked at him suspiciously "It's what I want."
"What do you want him to know?" Damon asked
"I want you to tell him that Vicki left town and she's not coming back. That he shouldn't look for her or worry about her. He's gonna miss her, but he knows it's for the best." Elena said as Stefan sat down, while Damon went inside.
Elena sat down next to Stefan "Part of me wishes that I could forget, too...Forget meeting you, finding out what you are and everything that's happened since." she said
"Is that what you want?" Stefan asked
"Yes, it is. Because I don'twant it to be like this. I don't wanna feel like this. But I can't. With everything that's happened...I can't lose the way I feel about you." Elena said causing Stefan to smile slightly before Damon came outside
"It's done." he said before Elena walked back inside as they looked at each other before they looked to the curve when Naruto pulled up, and their eyes widened seeing Vicki in the passenger seat, eating french fries walking to the car in shock as Naruto looked at them "Hey boys, I got Mickey D's extra pickles." he said
Damon hopped into the back seat, taking the bag and getting out one of the Ultimate Cheeseburgers
"What's going on? I killed you." Stefan said staring at Vicki who was now drinkong her shake
"I switched her out with a clone before you staked her. Now would you get in, we have to get to the airport." Naruto said before Stefan sighed and got into the car taking a burger before Naruto sped off
Jet Hanger
Naruto pulled into the hanger allowing tbe three vampires to see two women standing in front of a Embraer Phenom 300, stepping out the car Naruto walked to Cersei, and the woman standing next to her (picture Crystal Reed)
Pulling Cersei into a kiss, and a hug Naruto smiled at her, "Hope I didn't keep you waiting to long."
"Nonsense, we've barely been here for 5 minutes." Cersei said smiling before every one looked up to see Cersei's blood source stumble down the plane steps clutching his neck. Cersei looled to Vicki who was watching the bleeding man "So that's Vicki?" Cersei asked getting her attention
"That's right." Naruto said before Cersei walked to Stefan and Damon
"Hello boys, it's been a while." she said smiling as she was the one who made visits to them when they were human
Damon and Stefan smiled before they hugged her. Cersei then moved over to Vicki who was tense glancing over to the bleeding human repeatedly, "Why haven't you feed on him yet?"
"What?" Vicki asked
"You can't start controlling your bloodlust, if you have never indulged in it." Cersei ordered "Kill him."
Stefan's eyes widened, before he made to speak "Before you say anything Stefan this man, killed his wife, and 12 year old daughter for insurance money." Naruto said causing Stefan's protest to die immediately
Vicki looked at the man, having heard what Naruto said immediately rushed him and started to fed on him, when she was finished she looked up as a towl was placed in front of her, looking over she saw it was Hilary
"Vicki this is Hilary, she's a very powerful witch." Cersei introduced
"Witches exist?" Vicki asked taking the towel
"Yeah. You'll learn all about, but we have to get going" Hilary said before leading Vicki to the plane
Vicki looked back to the boys, getting waves from all 3, before Naruto looked to Cersei "Keep me posted on her progress." he said handing Cersei a scroll
"I'll call you when we land." Cersei said kissing Naruto before she waved goodbye to Stefan, and Damon who waved back
Later
Sheriff's Office
The Lockwood's and Liz were in the office,"So he said he was going to find the vampire?" Carol said getting a nod from Liz
"And how does he hope to do that? We have been looking for months." Richard asked
Before anyone could answer Naruto arrived with a body over his shoulder, "Here's your vampire." Naruto said before he dropped the body onto a nearby couch
The three humans walked over to see it was someone they've never seen before "His name is Jaime Lannister." Naruto said having placed an illusion of said dead man on Linda Fells body,
"Where'd you find him?" Liz asked
"He was lurking in the school." Naruto said with a shrug, "I made sure no one saw, so don't worry about it."
Naruto left the office, leaving the humans to look at each other before they turned to the deccicated vampire.
Finished
