Chapter 9: Turned Or Not?

Damon made excellent time getting to Mystic Falls. He tried to remember where he was three years ago because it was imperative that he didn't run into his past self. It could have disastrous consequences if that happened. Then he remembered that him and Bonnie were about to be trapped in the armory thanks to Enzo. He had to hurry and get there before Bonnie was poisoned by Enzo.

He didn't have that many options but he gave it some thought, if he turned Bonnie with his blood, there was a slight chance that she would be sired to him. This was something that Damon would rather not revisit again. He had to track down Stefan and convince him to do it for him. Unfortunately Stefan just couldn't be reached in time; therefore Damon tracked down the only other vampire that he trusted Caroline. He found her and Ric playing happy family yet again as Stefan was gone. She didn't take the news too well. She met him outside as she didn't want to wake the kids.

Caroline: "Wait a minute you want me to what?"

Damon: "Turn Bonnie into a vampire, is that too hard to do?"

Caroline: "First of all we don't even know what would happen to Elena if I did that, have you thought of that?"

Damon: "Yea, I've thought of that and I don't care. In three years time she is poisoned and dying, so no I don't care about precious Elena. I'm in love with Bonnie and I'll do anything to save her."

Caroline: "Wow, wait a minute you said three years, how would you know that?"

Damon: "I know because as strange as it sounds I'm from the future and I came to change it."

Caroline: "Even if I wanted to do that to my best friend, she would never turn. Don't you know her at all?"

Damon: "Yes, I know her better than you do. In fact, I know that, not only know that she will turn but I'm counting on it."

Caroline: "First of all, if you want me to do this than I need a valid reason to do it?"

Damon: "Her life is in danger; no there's not another option. You need to do it today."

Caroline: "Why does it have to be today?"

Damon: "It has to be today because she's going to be poisoned by Enzo. If there's vampire blood in her at the time it will reject the poison. You do want to save her life?"

Caroline: "Yes, of course but why does it have to be me? Why can't you do it?"

Damon: "I can't because I'm not going though that whole sired bond thing again."

Caroline: "What are you talking about?"

Damon: "If a vampire turns someone that has romantic feelings for them it will sire bond them to the vampire. That's why it has to be you that turned her."

Caroline: "Even if what you claim is true, you do realize that she's going to be pissed off at me right?"

Damon: "Of course but at this point I don't care. I need her in a way that I have never needed Elena. Will you do it or not?"

Caroline: "Fine, you've convinced me but if your really from the future tell me something that's going to happen?"

Damon: "We don't have time for this."

Caroline: "Fine but after this is over we are having a discussion."

With those final words spoken they raced off towards Bonnie. They arrived at the armory just barely in the nick of time. Caroline rushed towards Bonnie; before anyone could utter a word, Caroline forced blood down Bonnie's throat. Suddenly Damon was there and he looked completely confused by the events. It was present day Damon; which is why he was so confused. It of course figures that only Damon could mess up his own plans.

Immediately he pulled Caroline away from Bonnie and said, "What the hell is going on?"

To which Caroline replied, "I'm only doing what you asked me to do."

Bonnie looked at them both confused until suddenly Caroline snapped Bonnie's neck. It surprised both Bonnie and Damon for different reasons.

Immediately Damon screamed at Caroline, "What have you done?"

Caroline: "I've only did what you asked me to do. I'm sick to death of your bipolar personality; please choose one and stick to it already."

Damon: "Again, I say what is going on?"

Caroline: "First you say come quick and turn my best friend into a vampire because it's a matter of life or death and now you act like I'm the delusional one. Wait, are you from the future?"

Damon: "What, no of course I'm not crazy enough to walk around claiming that. Wait is that what happened, someone convinced you that they were from the future?"

Caroline: "Not someone, you told me that Bonnie would die unless I did this."

Damon: "You mean someone told you but it wasn't me. I would have remembered that. Besides have you even thought about what would happen to Elena?"

Caroline: "Of course I have but you told me that you didn't care. You were more concerned with Bonnie's wellbeing. I've never seen you like that before regarding her."

Future Damon disappeared as the future he came from no longer existed anymore; while present Damon was still slightly confused by Caroline's actions. Regardless of all these confusions Bonnie started to wake up. At first she wasn't sure what happened to her until she felt the hunger within her.

Bonnie: "What did you do, Caroline?"

Caroline: "I had to do this because someone told me that you were going to die unless I turned you. I'm so sorry Bonnie, please forgive me?"

Bonnie: "I can't think straight right now, why did you believe them?"

Caroline: "I can't tell you right now but please turn?"

Bonnie: "I'm not sure what that could mean for Elena."

In the end Bonnie did decide to turn because she just wasn't ready for her life to be over with yet. There was like this ripple effect right after she decided. The future version of Damon ceased to exist but his memories remained intact. In fact, only Damon would carry with him the memories of the events from three years time.
