The Turning Point

Parker sat with Liz in her cruiser on the way to the Salvatore boarding house. Liz had woken her up that morning because of another vampire attack; she used Parker to confirm it. So here Parker was riding with the sheriff to the Salvatore house. Once there it was Liz who knocked on the door. Stefan opened the door with a slight look of shock.

"We're here to see Damon," Liz said looking at Stefan.

"Uh yeah," Stefan said Stepping aside as Damon came around for the door.

"Uh Sheriff, what a surprise." Damon said looking at the Sheriff barely glancing at Parker.

"I'm sorry to bother, we need to talk." Liz said in her 'this means business' voice.

"Come in," Damon said catching on.

"Um, you two talk I have something's I need in my old room. When you're done sheriff just leave, I'll be fine." Parker said before walking off and going to her old room.

In her room Parker started looking through some of her old stuff. Most of her stuff was boxed up in the room. Going through a box of her old art stuff Parker pulled out a sketch she had done of Zach, Sara and herself. Looking at it Parker smiled, it was the day of her twenty first birthday Zach and Sara pitched in and bought her a new art easel and paint sets. Putting the sketch down Parker continued to dig through the box and a couple minutes later Stefan and Damon both stood in the dorrway looking at her.

"You may enter if you like, how did your chat with Liz go?" Parker asked setting aside more art work.

"Good, Liz said you took the day off work and could help me. I didn't know you took on a vampire alone before." Damon said as he looked at a sketch Parker had done.

"Yeah, I have and I know you have the watch and you interfere with the signal. Do you want me to use it for you?" Parker said looking up at the older Salvatore.

"That would be greatly appreciated, but only if you can handle being around people." Damon said causing Stefan to raise an eyebrow.

"Did I miss something?" Stefan asked stepping next to Damon looking at some of Parkers art as well.

"We had a chat." Damon said as Parker stood up to leave.

"See you later Stefan, let's go Damon." Parker said walking out the room with Damon.

Once outside Damon handed Parker the watch and they got into Damon's car. Once in town Damon parker his car and ran off so as not to mess with the watch. Parker started walking around town following the watch, every once in a while she had to shake her head to offset the buzzing. After walking around for about an hour Parker stopped in front of a warehouse. After sending Damon a quick text she waited for him to arrive a second later.

"So this is the place," Damon said looking at the warehouse, "don't look like much."

"Well what you don't know is, is that this is where we store wooden bullets and other things that we use against vampires." Parker said with a smirk looking at Damon.

"You have got to be kidding me." Damon said before receiving a serious look from Parker.

"Nope," Parker said before starting to walk up to the door with Damon.

Walking into the warehouse it was mostly dark, not many people went into it because it was owned by the police department. Damon walked in front of Parker and looked both ways before stopping and his eyes widening before a gun was fired and he got shot. Looking over Parker gasped at the sight of Logan 'Scum' Fell.

"I've got tons of these wooden bullets so nothing funky," Logan said to Damon but never taking his eyes off Parker.

"Scum Fell, lovely to see you." Parker said with a glare.

"Courteous as ever Ms. Gilbert," Logan said before shooting her and making her drop to the ground in pain.

Parker lay on the floor in pain, the pain causing the buzzing in her head to get louder and stronger. The buzzing started turning to fuzz and static. Parker tried to focus on what Logan and Damon were saying to each other but the static in her head became so strong mixed with the pain form the bullet she passed out.

Parker wasn't sure how long she had been out when she felt something running down her throat and a hand at the spot where she was shot pulling the bullet out.

"Gross," Parker said pushing Damon's wrist away from her mouth.

"I don't care, come on." Damon said helping her up, together they walked out of the warehouse. Damon vamp sped them to the boarding house and into Parkers old room. "I didn't give you enough blood; please tell me you have a first aid kit."

"Yes, go Damon find Logan and kill him." Parker said cringing as she moved. Once Damon left her room Parker took her shirt off and saw that Logan had shot her more than once, the cause for Damon not giving her enough blood. Slowly parker started bandaging up the still slightly open wounds in her bathroom.

"Fell's at the school," Damon said walking into her bathroom but stopping when he saw she didn't have a shirt on.

"Well then let's go." Parker said grabbing a new shirt and walking out the door.

Ten minutes later Damon sat Parker down next to Stefan as Stefan threw Logan out of a car. As Logan started to run at them both Damon and Parker shot at him.

"Payback's a bitch isn't it?" Damon said smirking as Logan fell back to the ground.

"Stefan take her to the hospital, I'll be there shortly to talk to the doctor." Parker said before Stefan takes off to the hospital, and she picks up the phone, "Sheriff, Caroline is on her way to the hospital to be checked. I'm headed there now."

"Thank you Parker." Liz said with a sound of relief before Parker hung the phone up.

"Good luck," Parker said before running off in the direction of her house a block away to get her car. As she ran Parker started to blink rapidly to try and stop a pain in her head, grabbing her and cringing in pain Parker started to run faster until she was to her driveway. Once at her driveway Parker shook her head and walked to the front door of the house and walked in stumbling to the bathroom. Once inside the bathroom she slowly started to reach for the bottle of aspirin, before her hand touched the bottle a large wave of pain went through her head causing her to drop to the floor. Before everything went black Parker could see the bottom of a hoop skirt and a frowning Emily Bennett.
