Thank you all for reading and reviewing. I apologize for the wait a lot has happened to me and I just couldn't find time to update. I will start writing the next chapter soon. I should have it up before the new year. Merry Christmas everyone!

Elena POV

I closed my eyes, ready to die. I always thought when people said their life flashed before their eyes that they were lying, I mean your entire life flashing before your eyes a few seconds before death. How stupid was that?

But seeing as that very thing was happening to me now I feel bad for saying so.

I saw every moment of my life starting from my first birthday all the way to this very moment through a third person's point of view as if my entire life had been recorded and was now being played before me. I saw every moment of my life, every lie I told to save myself, every devious thing I had done to protect me, every time I did something I wasn't supposed to, I saw it all.

The only difference was the different perspective, I saw all the mean, violent, manipulative things I had done to everyone that was around me. I remember feeling justified for my actions each time I did one of those selfish acts. I didn't feel any of that justification now, I only felt shame, and embarrassment of what I had done.

I clearly saw the effect my actions caused, I saw my parents crying wondering why I was acting the way I was, I saw my brother apologizing on my behalf to countless people, I saw Stefan backing me up and going along with whatever I said and did no matter how wrong my actions and plans were.

I saw love and devotion shining clear in his eyes and I saw mine that held emotions of that sort there was a cold self-righteous look on my face. I held a look that showed I felt I was always right, my way was the only way and it was the best.

The memories were slowing and more recent so I knew my time was almost up. I have to admit I was afraid of what the afterlife held in store for me after seeing all the wrong I've done, but I knew I deserved everything that was coming to me.

I only wish I could have apologized, truly apologized to everyone I wronged. When the memories stopped I felt the worst pain imaginable, I felt like I was drowning but on fire at the same time. I knew at that point I was dying and welcomed death, I was ready to pay for what I had done. I welcomed the darkness with open arms.

DAMON POV

I heard a commotion downstairs and smashing. Perfect. What now? They better not be breaking anything expensive. I walked downstairs to the kitchen to see Jeremy holding a stake over Elena's heart and pushing it in quickly and violently. Well. This was certainly an interesting development. I considered stopping him from killing her but went against it seeing all the bullshit she's pulled, and all the lies.

I was done with it, with her, too bad saint Stefan was out eating little Bambi's and thumpers he could have saved his girl. Such a shame

When little Gilbert has successfully staked his sister through he sunk his teeth into her neck, draining the remaining blood from her body. Just then the Scooby doo gang busted in, this is about to get good. I poured myself a bourbon and stood silently watching waiting to see how this would play out.

Barbie was the first to se what happened, "Jeremy? What are you doing here? What's on your face? Where is E…." she stopped suddenly finally seeing Elena on the floor wit a stake standing straight through her chest right over her heart she ran to her side and grabbed her body in her arms rocking , "Elena? Elena! NO! No no no no! this isn't happening! Please no this cant be happening"

Witchy was shell shocked she walked over to Barbie tears flowing freely from her eyes, when she was next to Barbie who was still rocking only now sobbing hysterically , she crumpled to the floor grabbing Elena's hand , holding it tight as she let loose her own sobs.

Wolf boy still stood by the door un-moving and I'm pretty sure he wasn't breathing either, with his mouth wide and tears filling his eyes as he looked on to the scene that was unfolding.

Matt fell to his knees and was sobbing into his hands

Ric was in the same state as Wolf boy with the exception that there was tears flowing.

During all of this no one seemed to notice Jeremy making his exit. How did they miss it was my main thing I mean for a vampire, something I accidently did, he made a loud departure. Oh well, they'll notice eventually. I suppose I should give my darling little sister a call to let her know all that has happened in her absence. Can't help but wonder where Saint Stefan was. I can't wait for his reaction to Elena's untimely death. Now on to something more important how to get all that blood of my Persian rug

( hours later )

NO POV

Eventually when the sobs had subsided and no more tears could be shed, someone called to Liz Forbes to inform her of Elena's death, and got a body bag here for her.

The Mayor was also called seeing as there was a supernatural aspect, the stake, involved. There would surely be a council meeting to come

Stefan had returned to the house feeling better after spending all day feeding. When he walked in and saw the blood stained rug, he was really confused , why was there blood on the floor? What the hell happened in his absence ?

He found Damon in the living room and asked about the blood Damon told him it was Elena's, he told him that Jeremy turned into a Vampire, wanted revenge in his sister for all his deaths and attacked her. Damon told Stefan that Elena was dead that Jeremy had killed her. He left out all the details about the stake killing her and Jeremy draining her.

When Damon had finished Stefan was frozen, a look of agony on his face, he looked like he was being tortured within. Stefan wanted to deny it, he wanted to believe that Elena was ok that Damon was lying as usual and everything was fine but the look n Damon's eyes showed that he was telling the truth.

That his Elena was dead, that Jeremy had killed her. Upon asking where Jeremy was and finding that he disappeared. Stefan got a void look, which could only mean one thing. Stefan had flipped the switch. Stefan no longer felt anything. It was just too much for him to deal with so he turned it off. Now there's no pain , no sorrow , no nothing .

Elena's Dead . How do yall feel about that? i was going to leave her alive longer but she wanted to die, so who the hell was i to stop her? How did i do in this chapter? I feel like I'm not quite hitting my mark with this one. should i have waited on turning stefan's emotions off? tell me what you think. I need yur help! s REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW!
