Elena waited nervously with Katherine. Lucy would be here any minute. Katherine knew it.
Elena kept peeking over to Katherine, trying to gauge her emotions. But they were unreadable at the moment. The silence between them was cut into with the sound of the big door opening.
Katherine turned to the foyer and quickly walked over to welcome Lucy. She gave Lucy a tight-wound hug and smiled nicely to her. Her expression turned serious and solemn in a quick second as she kept her dark eyes planted calculatingly on Lucy.
"Are you sure you'll be able to do this?" Katherine asked seriously, a stitch of worry in her tone. Lucy nodded sure of herself. "We'll get your girl back to normal," Lucy said, grinning stupidly to Katherine. Katherine rolled her eyes and glared at the witch.
Lucy just brushed it off and walked into the parlor. Elena sat against the back of the couch, looking around nervously, not knowing what to do with herself.
She turned to Katherine and Lucy, fear was clear in her deep, dark eyes. It shivered Katherine to her core. She gulped silently and held in the shiver threatening to break down her spine.
Elena looked to Lucy. "Hi," she whispered fearfully. Lucy came up to Elena and just hugged her in greeting. Elena felt her fear deepen a tenfold. She quickly pulled away and wrapped her arms around her middle feebly.
Katherine quickly came up to Elena and rubbed her back soothingly. Elena just shivered and flinched uncontrollably. Katherine backed away, hiding her hurt and just putting it off as Elena being to nervous.
"Let's do this," Katherine said, quickly turning to Lucy. Lucy nodded, and set her grimoires on the table. She got stuff out of her bag. There was a cauldron and small vials. Lucy slowly handed a dagger to Katherine.
Katherine grimaced and quickly slit the blade across her wrist. Drawing a thin bead of blood from her. She turned to Elena, who was standing right next to her. Elena nodded in reassurance to Katherine as she saw her hesitating with slitting Elena's wrist. Katherine closed her eyes and quickly slid the blade across Elena's closest wrist.
Her eyes opened and she saw the blood slithering out of the open skin. Elena look devoid, though she felt a million emotions pulsate through her at a blurring pace.
Katherine gulped and blinked vigorously. Her mind was getting fuzzy, as she watched their blood fall into the cauldron and mix together. She felt a deep hunger resonate with in her.
She wanted to possess Elena. Have her fully to herself, with her mind, body, blood, and soul. She all wanted this to be hers. Katherine tried to get a control of herself. But it was hard to focus on her 500+ years of control. The Latin words coming from Lucy's lips were bubbly and unclear to her.
Elena was falling into black oblivion. Everything was swirling with black and she felt the stormy gray veil clouding her mind. She peeked over at Katherine from the corner of her eye, then down to the pouring blood. Katherine pulls her wrist back when she knows she had supplied the proper amount of blood.
Elena was oblivious to it all. She gripped Elena's wrist quickly pulling it back. Elena seems to almost snap out of her daze as she stared at Katherine with hooded eyes.
Her tongue darted out and licked the thin line of blood from Elena, sealing the wound and stopping the bleeding. Elena and Katherine both needed to take a minute to recollect themselves. Lucy just put together the potion.
"Ok, it's done," Lucy informed them both, pouring the liquid contents into the two tiny vials. She handed them to the two girls. Elena's shaky hand came out to grasp her vial. Katherine firmly gripped the vial, the fragile glass threatening to break underneath her strong hold.
She uncorked it and took it back quickly. It burnt her throat, almost like hardcore liquor. Elena flinched as she took back the burning substance. It slithered down her throat and she felt her conscious slipping into the black hole of sleep.
Katherine sat there and waited impatiently. Elena's eyes darted open and she gasped. She looked to Katherine.
"What are you doing? I thought you said you wanted me to leave her alone?" 1864 Elena demanded, glaring at Katherine. Katherine smirked, having a good plan in mind. She gave Lucy the signal behind her back, out of sight from Elena.
Lucy murmured Latin words to herself, words that was inaudible to Elena's human ears. "I wanted to see you again. We never really had our final goodbye," Katherine lied in a sickly sweet tone. Elena fell for it and her doe eyes widened excitedly.
She grinned. "You still care about me," she drawled stupidly. Katherine held in her anger and just kept up the façade. Before Katherine could say anything, Elena's body suddenly jerked forward. "What's happening?" 1864 Elena demanded fearfully, looking to Katherine like a scared child desperate for their parent.
Katherine stood up and backed away to stand proudly next to Lucy. "Sending your ass where you belong," Katherine's lips curled into a malicious grin.
Elena fell to the floor and coughed loudly. "You bitch!" she rasped out angrily, ready to lunge at her. Elena's limbs twitched a flailed uncontrollably, screams echoed through the empty mansion. Katherine just bit her lip in concentration and reminded herself it wasn't her Elena that was in pain.
Suddenly Elena's limp form froze and her eyes slid close in silence. Katherine's eyes widened, and she looked over to Lucy demandingly. "It's done," Katherine was quickly looming over Elena, checking to make sure her heart was still beating.
The distant murmur coming from her chest quickly reassured Katherine. She breathed out a sigh in relief. There was a gasp and Elena had awakened. Katherine stared at Elena, gauging her emotions.
"Did it work?" she asked, stuttering uncontrollably. Katherine held back the grin and nodded quickly. Elena breathed out in amazement and quickly tackled Katherine in a tight embrace.
"Thank you so much," she nuzzled into Katherine's neck. Taking in the comforting scent of her. Katherine turned to give Lucy a quick dismissive look. Lucy smiled friendly and got her stuff together, quickly leaving Elena and Katherine to themselves.
They pulled away and just stared. "I have to tell Damon and Stefan about this now," Elena immediately bought up the subject of the Salvatores to release the growing tension between them. Though she knew it didn't work.
Katherine tensed, but quickly composed herself. "Of course," she deadpanned, standing up and bringing Elena with her. Elena stood up shakily and tried to compose herself.
She knew soon she had to make a big decision between three people who she loved. A lot. But now she was doubting that she'd survive long enough to decide.
