Chapter Seven
"You're crazy! I mean you want us to fake my brother's death, so I, the-year-2000-version of me, will return to Mystic Falls. Are you aware that the chance that my humanity wasn't switched off and I even cared about my little brother isn't that big? It's likely that nothing will happen, except Stefan leaving this town-what means leaving us- behind."
Damon was angry.
The empty bottle of Bourbon right in front of him hadn't made it any better. He didn't even feel drunk. He was just angry. How could Bonnie think about that? Did she really want to risk losing Stefan out of sight for this low price? No. Just no. Wasn't there any other possibility?
"Damon, think about it. If there's anything that can make you return, it's your brother. Who else did you care about back in 2000?"
"I cared about NOBODY! That's the point. I cared about NOBODY. I didn't have ANY emotions."
Then it hit him.
"Wait! I would have come back for one person...", Damon began.
Bonnie looked at him.
Then she knew what he was about to say.
"Katherine." They said in unison.
Bonnie's POV
We have to come up with a plan to get Damon back to Mystic Falls but there are some problems. First, where was Damon in 2000 exactly, he doesn't know where other than "somewhere in Europe", like he said. Second, when we know where to find him, what do we tell him to get him back home. And lastly, how do we tell him. We can't really try that speaking thing between the 2000-self and the older self because who knows if it even works with someone other than me. We don't even know what that was? Anyway, even if it works, I don't think Damon can talk with himself from Mystic Falls to Europe.
Damon and Bonnie were sitting on the couch in the Salvatore's living room with grimoires spreaded around them when the front door opened. They expected it to be Stefan but instead the third ghost came in sight. Lexi hadn't been home since she left yesterday.
"Hey guys", she greeted the two.
"Where have you been?", Damon asks concerned.
" I just had to get out of here, to process everything. I'm sorry I left you alone with all the 'searching for a way to get home' and stuff. Did you find anything?", she asked.
"We found a way", Bonnie smiled,"there are a view problems along the way but we will get home eventually."
"Tell me!", Lexi almost shouted of excitement.
"So, first, I have to get my magic back but then we can get you home and then us together. To get you back we have to go to the exact center of your hometown and then I can do a spell. It's different than the one that will get us back, 'cause we died in 2012 and are now in 2000 we need to go to the center of our hometown, Mystic Falls, get the 2000-version of ourselves there and then I can do a spell. For that we need to know where Damon was in 2000. But that isn't important right now. What we need to do now is get my magic back and then we can start to plan the rest", Bonnie explained their situation.
"You guys are awesome, did you know that?", Lexi said and glanced over from Bonnie to Damon, who was watching her with a smirk and a undefinable look on his face.
