I do not own Twilight, the originals, or tvd.


The next morning, Klaus called Damon.

"Hello?" Damon asked groggily, as if he had just woken up.

"Hello Damon," Klaus said with a bored tone in his voice, "We need to talk."

"Hold up," Damon said as he stared at his phone, "First off, no. Actually, wait. How did you even get my number?"

"I have my ways." Klaus stated. "Anyway, you need to keep a close eye on Bella. She obviously doesn't trust me enough to be around her, so I need you to do it. Bella without emotions is the last thing we need."

"I'm not gonna ignore the fact that you somehow got the number to my phone that my brother doesn't even know I have," Damon began, "but Imma put that aside for now. Why should I help you? How do you even know Bella?"

"I met Bella a long time ago. She became part of my family; Rebekah even liked her. That's not the point though. In case you haven't realized yet, Bella without emotions is a really bad thing. She is the most compassionate person I have ever met, and she turned her emotions off. Keep an eye on her until I can get help." With that command, Klaus hung up and left Damon to figure out what just happened.


On the other side of town, Bella was back in the Grill. She sat there drinking until a certain blonde original walked into the bar.

"Bella?" Rebekah asked, astonished, "Is that you?"

"What is it with people this week? Do I look like Beyonce to you Rebekah?" Bella asked harshly as she set her drink down. "All I wanna do is be left alone but all anyone wants to do is annoy me, so what can I do for you?"

"Bella, first off, I'm so glad you're here. Second, I would have contacted you after we left New Orleans, but Klaus daggered me. When I was undaggered I couldn't find you. And thirdly, you flipped your switch didn't you?"

"Yes Rebekah, I did. Since I can't seem to get you to leave, you want to join me for a drink?"

"Why not, sure." replied Rebekah as she sat down. She quickly had to leave though, as she had previous plans already made for the day.


After searching for hours, Damon finally found Bella drinking at the falls.

"Did you steal my scotch?" Damon asked as he walked into the clearing. "Not cool, Bella."

"Can you leave me alone for five minutes Damon? You've been following me all day." Bella exclaimed as she looked at him.

"You're obviously not in the best state right now Bella. Why don't we go back to my place, and you can tell me what happened." Damon tried convincing her.

"How do I know you won't ambush me with vervain or something and get me to try and flip my switch back on?" Bella accused.

"We can stay here if you want." Damon replied as he sat next to her.

"Alright, but if you try and get me to flip the switch, I'm leaving."

"Thats fair."


"And thats what happened." Bella finished her story off with. "His family left me just like Nik's did, and it pushed me to the breaking point. This was your plan though, wasn't it? Get me to talk about the breaking point in the hopes I'd flip the switch back. It was brilliant, it worked." She sighed as she got up off the ground. "Well, I'm grateful, but I kinda need some alone time right now. Ill meet you back at the mansion in a couple hours, okay?"

With that, Bella ran off into the woods, leaving Damon alone in the clearing.


Back at his place, Damon thought over the information he just received. Not only was his best friend Bella like family with the Originals, her soulmate was one of them? It was just too crazy. Maybe with Bella back in all of their lives though, the Originals would go back to how they were in her story. One could only hope.


The story is coming to an end soon, but as I wrote this, I realized I wanted to add more than three or four more chapters. So, its got a couple more left.
