Thing were mad around the house, tonight would we meet meeting Caroline and April so, Jacob went back training me how to fight, while Erica watched us trying to correct what we did wrong but, it was hard to concentrate, I could practically feel the fear and nervousness coming off her. Everyone was on edge but, Erica kept asking me about the kid from my dream. It felt like my life my ending before it could begin, everyone knows that Erica and I are engaged but, they were a little confused by it knowing Erica might die.

"No, no, no. You have to grab his arm and twist it behind him." Erica said.

"Why don't you join in then, since you seem to know everything." Jacob said really irritated.

"Fine continue." she said.

"Why don't you join in?" I asked her.

"I'm not feeling well today." she said.

"What do you mean?" I said a little confused.

"I'm just really hungry and drained." she told me.

"You drank just a half hour ago." I said.

"I know." she said like she was hiding something.

"Well Jake, I think its time to stop for now, the sun is up." I said to him.

"Sure." he nodded.

I walked over to Erica, about to pull her in for a hug when I put my hands on her hips she flinched away almost putting a few cracks in the wall behind her, I dropped my hands in shock. She looked like she was going to cry when she realized what she did. Slowly she stepped forward and hugged me.

"I'm so sorry." she said over and over.

"Don't worry about it." I told her.

"You surprised me." she explained.

"You would tell me if anything was going on right?" I asked.

"Of course I would." she said.

I nodded and we headed up to our room. I climbed into bed along with Erica and we sat there talking about tonight but, as much as she tried to reassure me that everything was going to be fine, I still had this feeling like everything wasn't. Something was really wrong and I couldn't figure it out, the way Erica has been acting and the dreams but, for now I had to push all of that out of my mind and focus. Caroline was going to pay, and I'm the one that's going to make sure that happens. Erica was asleep with in seconds, she was curled up with a pillow she had her arms and legs wrapped around. I closed my eyes and slowly drifted to sleep.

"Elijah, wake up." Erica said.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"I'm scared, I don't want to die, I want to be with you forever." She said just about to cry.

"Don't even say that, we will be together forever." I told her wrapping my arms around her.

"I just want you to know, if I die, I love you so much, you have made my life so much better. From the first time I saw you, I knew we would be together." she said.

"I felt the same way." I told her.

"I love you." she said.

"I love you too."

We kissed and I couldn't help but, feel like this was a goodbye kiss. That we wouldn't never see each other again after tonight but, the passion came over us and we went a little further then we should have.

Time was starting to go by fast, we had just enough time to get ready and fill up on more blood to give us more strength to fight because that's what it's going to come down to. Caroline wont be leaving that field alive and if April gets in the way of that, I will act of it. When it was time to go, I was wearing track pants with a green shirt, Erica had leggings, a black and pink shirt with a black sweater on. I was just about to say let's go when Jacob pulled me away.

"You have to make sure my sister lives." he said slowly.

"I will do everything in my power." I told him.

"And you have to make it out a live as well, I don't want to lose my brother." he said giving me a small hug.

When we went back into the living room Erica was hugging Angela and James followed by Jacob just as he left my side. She let go of them and turned towards me she had tears running down her face making her blue eyes shine brightly, she ran to me and held on for dear life, lucky for me I can now handle her bone crushing hugs. So we said good-bye and ran out into the now dark sky.

We stood in the middle of the field, holding each others hands waiting, the air was cold and blew left and right. I smelt the air and Caroline's scent was all over the place, some were at least a week old others new. That's when it hit both of us, we tensed at the same time as they walked almost to the tree line. I knew what to expect, I've seen all of this so, as if right on time, two figures stepped out of the tree line moving faster than an average human but slower than a vampire would move.

Soon enough they were both staring at us I glanced over at Caroline first, her dark hair was curled with a white headband that kept her hair in place. She was wearing dark blue skinny jeans with a white tank top underneath a thin light colored grey sweater, sleeves pushed up to her elbows. She smiled and looked over at April, who had a death glare on her face, she stood just a few inches taller, with blonde hair a green eyes, wearing a just above the knee short sleeve blue dress with black tights and heels. Her face started to move into a smile showing her fangs slowly growing longer and eyes turning from green to red.

"Hello brother." she greeted.

"Hello April." I said back.

"After you died everything went to hell, mom and dad wouldn't even speak. I had to deal with everything you left behind but, when I meet Cara, she told me everything. You gave up everyone in your life just to be with her." she said giving Erica a small hiss.

"Caroline, it seems you left things out, like how it was your fault I'm like this." I said.

"What does he mean by that?" April asked Caroline.

"I was the one who bit him but, Erica was the one who turned him." she said.

"She did that because I would have been truly dead." I told them.

"You know V, you look a little worn out." Caroline said to Erica.

"I can see beat you." she growled.

April stepped in front of Caroline protecting her, as she crouched just about to attack. I moved Erica behind my body shielding her from them, sending a growl back at her. April recoiled and stood up, just as Erica slid her hand into mine to calm me down. I felt their eyes on my hand but, they didn't move.

"So you would really choose her over me?" April asked.

"Yes." I said staring her right in the face.

"Fine, I that's how you want it." she said turning to face Caroline.

She whipped around eyes blood-red her mouth open letting out a horrific snarl with her fangs ready to draw blood. That's when Erica had enough she was in front of me in a second kicking April back colliding with the ground. Caroline watch and turn on me, after all the training I did with Jacob, I finally put it to use. She went to grab me but, I moved out-of-the-way so I grabbed her arm and twisted it behind her and biting into it as she screamed. April grabbed me and threw me into Erica, almost taking us both down. Caroline's blood was on my lips and trailing down my chin. Erica was blind sided by April and thrown to the ground hard causing her to yell out in pain. She gave me a nod telling me she was alright. Caroline was just about to grab me when I bit into her breaking a few of her fingers.

I was just about to go after Caroline when April dug into my back ripping through my shirt, I didn't realize she cut me I turn on her grabbing her by the throat when I saw all the blood on her finger. I threw her with a lot of effort to the ground making her bounce slightly, that ended in something snapping. Erica then grabbed her and dug into her scratching into her face and body but, April came back at her pushing her aside ripping a chunk out of she shoulder. Caroline charged once again but, this time getting me snapping my arm. Pain over came me but, I calmed myself breathing in as I waited for it to heal.

I stood up once again I had Caroline by the throat lifting her of the ground as she panicked. I could see the fear and begging in her eyes but, I wanted this over but, I was stopped by Erica yelling out a blood curdling scream from behind me. I whipped around still holding Caroline watching in horror.
