Wolves

Bonnie closed her car door and walked up the circular driveway to the Salvatore mansion. As she reached for the metal doorknocker, the wooden door opened with Damon behind it. The group had worked together for almost a week to organize the plan and Bonnie had to master the spell as best she could; Damon hadn't been at their planning gatherings. Apparently he had been trailing Jules.

"Damon." Bonnie averted her eyes as she entered the home, and Damon caught hold of her hand just as she passed him and her heart fluttered.

"Bonnie?"

"Yes?" she answered, leaving her hand in his and turning to face him. His eyes pierced her own, and he took a step closer.

"Why didn't you return my calls?"

"I had nothing to say."

"I wanted, I want to…apologize for that day. At Elena's." He looked to the floor and then met her eyes once more. "I shouldn't have reacted that way." Damon squeezed her hand. "Thank you for helping."

"You're welcome." Bonnie pulled her hand out of his and pushed her hair behind her ear. He never apologized like this, she thought. Most apologies seemed insincere or came with physical groping.

Damon trailed after her into the living room where Stefan, Alaric, and Caroline waited. For the next hour Stefan and Alaric explained the plan and Bonnie informed the group about the spell. Damon, unusually quiet, spent a majority of the next hour intensely staring at her. Bonnie attempted to ignore him, but the blush that rose and stayed on her cheeks wouldn't allow it.


Bonnie sat in the driver seat of her car while Caroline concentrated on hearing what was going on a quarter of a mile away in the cottage at the edge of the Lockwood property. The cottage where Jules lived. The spell Bonnie had performed was time sensitive. She had sound proofed the room that Alaric (after some spying) had determined was the room most used by the wolves. She made it so those in the room couldn't hear anything outside the room, but those outside could hear the goings on of the room. He and Damon would be hiding in the house while Stefan would be the lookout. Damon and Alaric needed to be able to hear the wolves' conversation and leave the building within thirty minutes.

Bonnie tapped her fingers on the steering wheel and gnawed at her bottom lip. The guys had been there for almost fifteen minutes.

"Bon, stop. My ears pick up every little sound. That drumming of your fingers? Not so silent to me."

"Geez. Sorry."

"No, I'm sorry. I just—" Caroline froze and put her fingers to her temples.

"What happened, Car?" Bonnie grabbed Caroline's arm.

"There's some type of dog. No wolf! They're after each other!"

Before Bonnie could say anything, the vampire was out of the car.

Crap. Crap crap crap, Bonnie thought. She turned the key to start the car and then turned if off. Once again in the middle, she said to herself as she started the car and shifted into gear.

Bonnie's heart raced as she drove towards the cottage after Caroline. All she could think was that she shouldn't have done the spell. Damon was in trouble as well as Stefan and Alaric, and now even Caroline. But deep down she knew they would have found another way to get what they needed.

When her hands touched the doorframe of the cottage, snarls and yells filled the air around her. Bonnie moved towards the sound and froze when she found its source.

A dark grey wolf lunged for Alaric and Stefan tried to speed to his rescue but was stopped by a sandy colored wolf. Damon squared off in front of Jules, her white and grey fur standing on end. She snarled at Damon and he jabbed a long wooden stake at her but she was too quick.

Where's Caroline? Bonnie thought. She searched the room, and found her friend in the corner, hidden behind a dresser. She was trying to put some gun-like weapon together. Bonnie looked at the scene surrounding her. I need to do something, she thought. Just as she began to concentrate, Alaric went to the ground followed by the grey wolf. The wolf bit into his arm. With her powers, Bonnie threw the wolf off and watched as it banged into the wall. Its disorientation allowed enough time for Bonnie to reach Alaric. Her hands hovered over Alaric's arm and she concentrated on healing the bite.

Nothing happened. She tried again with no results.

"Bonnie, is he okay?" Damon asked, his eyes not leaving Jules.

"He's not healing. It must be because it's a supernatural bite."

"Blondie, now would be a good time to use that gun."

"I'm sorry. It's not working," Caroline answered.

"Then give Alaric some blood," Damon said. Caroline sped to Alaric's side. And Stefan was running around the room so fast he couldn't be seen, two wolves after him.

"No, no. I do not want any vampire blood," Alaric said.

Bonnie touched his good arm. "You have to Alaric. I can't heal you."

"I'm not doing it."

"Ric! Don't be an idiot!" Damon said. Bonnie watched as Damon turned his head just for a second.

"Damon! Look out!" Bonnie yelled. She swore her heart stopped as she saw Jules push him the ground. Just as she leaned in to bite him, Caroline threw a wolfsbane filled dart from the gun at her followed by another for good measure. Jules yelped in pain and fell to the side giving Damon enough time to plunge a stake into her side.

Bonnie let out her breath and focused her energy on Alaric. She drew out the pain from his arm, but he was losing a lot of blood and his skin had become pale. "Caroline, you need to get him out of here. Take him to the hospital. Can you handle the blood?"

"NO!" Damon said. "Bonnie, you need to leave. You take him."

"I'm staying here. You need my help. And you need to help Stefan!"

"Bon, I'll take him," Caroline said. The veins surrounding her eyes appeared, but she controlled herself. "I'll be fine." And then she picked up Alaric and was gone.

All the chasing had stopped and as Bonnie stood, saw the grey wolf snarling at Stefan and the sandy colored one looking from Damon to her with a curious gleam in his eyes. She squinted her eyes and lit the wolves' tails on fire. The one going after Stefan freaked out and attempted to put the fire out. The other narrowed his eyes at her and leaped into the air. Bonnie fell backwards at the wolf's impact and through a glass-topped coffee table.

Shards of glass pierced her skin and her head hurt from hitting the floor. She focused an aneurysm at the wolf and when it stopped going towards her, she got to her knees and put all her energy into a new spell she had never tried. From the corner of her eye she could see Stefan finishing off the grey wolf. Damon came towards her, but the sandy wolf was now going after him.

She concentrated on the wolf and watched as he began to turn into his human self, but then he forced himself back to wolf. She tried again and this time most of his body became man. Damon pierced a knife into his neck.

Bonnie felt herself sway and the pain in her head made everything hazy and silent. She dropped to her side, seeing fear in Damon's eyes as he mouthed her name. Her eyes closed.
