Hi guys! Sorry I haven't posted but I was going on a bunch of college tours. But because I'm feeling guilty I'll post two chapters tonight! Hope you like... CHAPTER 14!
Chapter 14
"I'll need the big one near the table in the kitchen." Bonnie said to John over the phone. He was getting her grimoires from her house.
John had told her about the spell. He told her not to tell Elena about it because he knew she would try to stop them.
"Does it have papers hanging out from it?" John asked her. He picked up a big book from the table. It looked old and it was dark brown. Papers were hanging out from it. They were also all over the table. It looked like Bonnie had been studying from it.
"Yeah, you can put the papers that are out just in the front page. That's the one I need. Put the key under the mat when you leave."
John did as she said and put the papers in the book. On his way out he started to look through the book. It was all symbols that he had never seen before.
John closed the book, went outside and locked the door. He climbed into his car and started to drive to the Salvatore boarding house.

Elijah walked up to the mayor's home. He knocked on the door and waited for a minute. He heard someone running down the stairs.
When she opened the door and saw him she was surprised. "Elijah? What are you doing here? I thought you had left town." She said to him.
"Yea I took a break from my research for a while but I'm ready to get back to it now. I was wondering if I could talk to your son? I wanted to ask him about how his education now is different from how it was back in the time I'm researching." He said making something up on the spot. He really needed to find the boy for Klaus.
"Oh, he's at the restaurant in town with his friends. The Mystic Grill. You could wait for him here if you want to." She said beckoning him inside.
"No. That's fine. I'll come back tomorrow. I was just wondering if he was in school this week. Why isn't he?"
"Well the school is on spring break this week." She said. She looked confused to why he was asking. "I'll tell him you stopped by." She said.
Elijah grabbed her hand, which was still outside of the house. She looked up into his eyes and he did the same to her.
"Forget that I came by here and we talked. I'm still out of town and you have no idea where I went."
She nodded and closed the door. Elijah turned away from the house and smiled to himself. He was so glad that he had gotten her of vervain the day he got into town. That was going to make his life so much easier.
O
"What if he's just biding his time? He could just come on Thursday and take me." Elena asked. She was sitting on the couch hugging her legs to her chest. Damon was sitting next to her. There were only a few inches separating them.
"He's not going to come Elena. Even if he does we're going to keep you safe." He said reassuring her. She had been asking questions like that for the past two hours. It seemed like she was trying to find a way for Klaus to be able to come and get her.
"How much vervain is there in the basement?" She asked him. She put her head on his shoulder. Damon started to play with her hair.
"A lot. Why?"
"Would you think I was crazy if I asked you to drink it?" She asked him.
"Maybe not if you had a valid reason."
"Well, Elijah compelled Katherine. That means originals can compel regular vampires. If you drank vervain they wouldn't be able to get into your head."
"Now I don't think you're crazy. It would hurt like hell though." Damon said, "Would burn my throat and probably my stomach."
"It wouldn't kill you though right?"
"No. I'll try it Elena if it makes you feel better."
O
Elijah walked into the Grill and looked around. There was a group of boys playing pool in the far corner. He went and sat in a booth near them. He put his head down in case anyone saw him.
He heard the sound of one ball sinking in a pocket and then another. "Nice job Tyler!"
Elijah picked his head up and looked over to the boys. He guessed the one wearing a triumphant grin was Tyler.
He put his head back on the table and waited for the boys to leave.
O
"Stefan is that Elijah?" Katherine whispered so low that Stefan could barley hear her. He looked over to where she was pointing and saw a man with his head on a table.
"I can't tell." Stefan said. Katherine looked petrified.
"Let's get out of here just in case." Katherine practically ran out of the Grill. She didn't even check if Stefan was behind her until they were outside.
"I swear it was him. You don't exactly forget the face you've been running from for 500 years."
"Lets get out of here then." Stefan said.
They both blurred as they ran back to the Gilbert house. Katherine opened the door and they went inside.
"I think we should try my house again." Stefan said to her after she had calmed down a bit.
"Ugg! Why won't your brother just let us in?" She asked him. She was getting tired constantly having to ask.
"Because Elena's mad at me."
"Fine. But this is the only time today. We're not making three trips like yesterday." She said. She walked over to the table and picked up another jacket. She shed the one she had on and put the heavier one on instead.
"Fine. Let's hope they let us in this time."
O
The group of boys finally left the Grill at five p.m. Elijah had been sitting next to them playing pool for almost two hours.
He was glad to see that as they left the werewolf Tyler stuck to the back of the group. Elijah stood up and walked out behind them.
Part of the group went one way but Tyler and another boy turned the other. Elijah tailed them until they got to a pickup truck.
"You sure you don't need a ride man?" The boy getting in the truck said.
"Yeah. I'll just run home. I need the exercise."
The blond boy in the trunk grinned at him. The truck started noisily. Elijah watched as it pulled out onto the street.
The boy Tyler had already started running. He was fast for a human. But wait, he is a werewolf, Elijah thought to himself.
Elijah followed the boy's path until they were close to the woods where the tomb was. Then he ran up to the boy at full speed and pushed him on the ground.
"What the hell!?" He said looking back at Elijah. Elijah smiled at him and then pounded his head into a tree.
O
"Oh my gosh! They are here again!" Bonnie exclaimed from upstairs. She was with Jenna, John and Jeremy. Elena had no idea what they had been discussing but Damon did.
"Seriously? They haven't given up yet?" Damon said. He got up off the couch. Elena had an angry look on her face.
"STEFAN! KATHERINE! I'm not even going to open the door this time! You're not getting in the house!" Damon yelled.
"That's nice Damon." Stefan said. "Question: How's that Elijah plan working out for you? Is he still protecting Elena and everyone she cares about?"
"Nope! He's dead." Damon said from the inside of the house. Elena's face changed from angry to confused. Why would they bring that plan up if Elijah was dead?
"Are you sure about that Damon?" Katherine said, "Stefan and I just saw him at the Grill."
Damon turned to Elena. Her face was horrified. Damon just looked confused.
"What are you talking about!? I killed him with a dagger!'' Damon yelled back to her.
"Did you remember to leave that dagger in his chest? Cause if you took it out he walked away scratch free." Katherine said.
Damon and Elena were stunned speechless. All of Elena's fears could come true then. Klaus was working with Elijah so he knew where she was. He knew about all of her family and friends.
That was not good.
O
"The boy is chained in the tomb where I found Katerina. He won't be able to escape." Elijah said to Klaus. Klaus was sitting at the table. He was massaging his temples with his fingers.
"Where did you put the backup werewolf?" He asked Elijah. If he had learned one thing from trying to break a curse for a thousand years was to always have a backup.
"I left Maddox in charge of her. I think he'll be able to control her."
"Good. I have my plans for the vampire so all we need now is the doppleganger. I think I'll pick her up tomorrow." Klaus said. Elijah sat down across from him. Klaus wouldn't look him in the eye. He knew Elijah had been planning to kill him.
Klaus had his plans for Elijah as well. He put his hand inside his coat pocket and touched the dagger that lay there.
O
Elena woke up in the middle of the night from a nightmare. It was about Damon again. She dreamed of Klaus knocking his head off like Elijah had done to Trevor.
She walked to his bedroom but he wasn't there. His bed wasn't slept in yet tonight. She just then realized she had never been in his room before. She only knew where it was from seeing him go in there so many times.
She sat on his bed and waited for him there. Eventually she fell asleep bathed in Damon's scent. She felt much better.
O
Damon walked into his room and saw Elena sleeping one his bed. He wondered why she was there before he remembered what she had told him the morning beforehand about her nightmares.
He put his glass of bourbon on the bedside table and went over to her. She had fallen asleep on top of the covers. He gently pulled them over her.
Damon went to the armchair opposite his bed and sat watching Elena. After a while he too fell asleep covered in her scent.
AWWWWWW! I hope you liked this chapter and PLEASE REVIEW!
BTW, that means by the way, OMG MY BABY JEREMY! Please let the ring bring him back! I know it won't but I can't stand not having him alive! I feel so bad for Elena, now she has NO ONE!
