Chapter Ten: The Turning Point

My body shuck as my heart began to race as I tore myself from the nightmare I was forced to face. He girls voice still rang around my head – whispering, shouting, begging for me to save her. Tears continued as I shuddered another breath, just as my door banged open with Elena, Jenna and Jeremy running inside. "Hey are you okay?" Elena asked as she came and sat on the bed pulling me into her arms. I cried unable to stop, unable to force out a reply. I took comfort in my family surrounding me as I slowly calmed down. My body felt heavy as I flung myself onto the bed being lulled to sleep by Elena's comforting voice, Jeremy holding me and aunt Jenna stroking my hair like mama used to, for I had once been distraught with the nightmare of my parent's death. I tried to stay awake, but the darkness soon covered me once more as I fell asleep.

I awoke alone, the nightmare fading from memory until all that remained was a flash of a smirk, a blood curdling scream and a voice. Showering quickly (to get rid of the sweat covering my body) I dressed in blue shorts and a black camisole. As I walked out of my room I ran a hand tiredly over my face before seeing Jeremy sitting at his desk, quietly sketching. Something he hadn't done since our parents had died, Elena stood beside me shocked before she looked at me; Giggling before we rushed downstairs, where aunt Jenna was getting ready to leave. "Jeremy's got his sketch pad out." Elena told her happily. "you're kidding" Jenna gasped, just as shocked as the rest of us. "just don't say a word, the minute we encourage him, he'll put it away." Elena added "except for maybe Mayrah." Aunt Jenna joked, as Elena looked sadly at her phone. "you and Damon?" "were fine he just hasn't text me. I know stupid problem." Elena muttered "no it's not, though I wish Logan would leave me alone." Jenna announced. "Logan?" Elena questioned startled. "He's back." she answered as my eyes widened. "Did you invite him in? I questioned well more demanded. "I didn't let him past the front door." Aunt Jenna responded. "Hope you slammed it in her face." I told her smiling though inside I was worried, Logan Fell was now a vampire. "Ah medium slam." She answered. "three strike rule Jenna, you're not even allowed to watch the news." Elena told us as we made our way outside. "exactly, no more Logan 'scum' Fell." Jenna spoke proudly.

After dropping Elena off at school, I quickly drove to the boarding house so worried I didn't even put any music on. As soon as my car was parked I ran I ran over to the door which was luckily open. "yes, Mayrah please come in" Damon said sardonically his eyebrows raised as I threw myself into the closest chair gasping for breath. While I was busy getting my breath back officer Forbes arrived asking to speak to Damon privately. "what is she saying?" I asked quietly knowing Stefan and Lexi could still hear me." Looks like there is another vampire attack." Lexi told me. "oh, it's probably Logan." I said trying to be dismissive but failing. "What! Damon exclaimed as he came back, officer Forbes already gone. "Apparently he showed up last night asking Jenna to let him in." I told them "Let's find him then" Stefan spoke as he began to stand up. "Let the adults handle this Stefan and go to school." Damon mocked. Great! What I always anted to do, find a crazed vampire who has a thing for my aunt.

I stood waiting outside the abandoned warehouse by myself, with Johnathan Gilberts vampire detector in my hand. The arrow continued to point towards the warehouse, I sighed once more just as Lexi and Damon appeared. "so are you ready to catch a vampire." Damon smirked as I nodded though I was unsure, Damon and Lexi sped into the building while I followed at a slower pace.

BANG!

The shots of a gun rang out as I stopped at the door, the only thing protecting me from the vampire was the slowly setting sun. "Run Mayrah Run." I heard Lexi scream before another shot went off. I rushed to my car before speeding off – I had to find Stefan.

Dashing into the school I quickly began my search to find Stefan who was by Elena, who was planning for the future. Stepping up the pace I practically ran at the. God I was so unfit I thought as I held on to Stefan to hold myself up as panted like a dog. "What's the matter." Stefan asked worriedly. "L-Logan h-h-has…" I began only to be cut off by aunt Jenna showing up looking annoyed. "What's going on?" Elena asked looking worried. "the 'scum' Fell had landed." Jenna answered. "Logan's here?" Elena questioned as Stefan shared a worried look with me before quickly exiting.

I followed behind him as we exited into the hallway where Logan was 'scum' Fell himself was chatting up some high school girls. "Stefan what's going on?" Elena asked as her and aunt Jenna came after us. "Jenna, are you dodging me?" questioned Logan as he joined us. "it's a form of self-preservation." Snapped Jenna. "Um, Mayrah, why don't you take Elena and Jenna and go somewhere else?" Stefan ordered, I gave a quick nod before pulling the two women away.

I ignored Elena and Jenna's talk as I tried to navigate the school and get to the exits, when Alaric stopped in front of us as the two-grown-ups flirted me and Elena made a bee-line towards the exit to go find Stefan.

We found him outside on the phone as I quickly ran towards him. "are Lexi and Damon okay?" I asked worried eve though they are vampires. "there fine Mayrah, just annoyed, there coming here to kill Logan." He answered. "So, Logan's a vampire now too." Elena questioned with her eyebrow raised.

We walked along the corridor's, looking out for Damon and Lexi, when Elena. caught Matts arms. "Hey, have you seen Logan fell, the news guy?" Elena asked him. "yeah. He just gave Caroline a ride home." He answered. The three of us shared a worried look. "Stay here." Stefan demanded, so me and Elena were left by our self's in the corridor.

I was pacing nervously as Elena chatted to one of her friends; that is until I saw Stefan walking through the dwindling crowd to join us. "Caroline?" Me and Elena asked at the same time. At any other time, we would have laughed at how in sink we were with each other, but this was not one of those times. "She's okay. I took her home, she was shaken up, but all she knows is Logan attacked her. Nothing else." He reassured. "Where's Logan?" I asked worried that he was still out there. "Damon and Lexi are dealing with him." He told us as I sighed in relief, I didn't like the idea of killing but would I rather my family be in danger? "As in…?" Elena questioned, and Stefan nodded his answer after a moment of silence Elena spoke up "well I'm going to go make a romantic meal for Damon, so cover for me" with that Elena was gone.

That night I sat on my bed, tiered as sleep refused to come as I gazed dazedly into the mirror; the light began to flicker as my image changed to the girl from my nightmare s. a look of terror crossed her face as she banged on the glass, silently screaming. Then the lights flashed back on and she was gone. I sat in silence, a small scream escaped past my lips as my phone began to ring.

Elena's P.O.V –

I sighed in content as I snuggled into Damon' s body before he got up, kissing me before he went to get me a drink. The smell of the candles allured me out of bed to smell them more closely, Mayrah had looked candles lighting them everywhere I had missed the smell when she moved away. I moved around the flames until I found a picture of Kathrine, she looked exactly like me… I left the house quickly only stopping to grab my phone, so I could call Mayrah to come pick me up.

Mayrah's P.O.V –

I smiled sadly at my sister as she climbed into my car before I began to drive once more. The car was silent as Elena quietly wiped away her tears. I looked way from the road for a moment to place my hand on her thigh in comfort as I looked back a man stood in the middle of the road. Quickly I pushed on the breaks but I still hit the man and sent the car tumbling, my head smashed against the window, the last thing I heard was Elena's screams before I succumbed to the darkness.
