Nothing's Ever Easy
Bella's Point of View
I felt myself being carried and when I opened my eyes I saw I was tied up. Elena was already sitting on a couch being untied;
"Bella." She said and looked at me.
"Shut up," The person carrying me said to Elena and I looked to see a woman with short brown hair.
"What do you want with us?" I asked as she sat me down.
"Shut up." She told me.
"No," I replied as she freed my hands.
"No questions." She replied.
"Too bad you should have gagged me then." I said and stood up.
The next thing I knew she was in front of Elena and had hit her.
"Elena!" I yelled and went over to her.
"Let that be a lesson to you." The woman said.
I walked over to the woman and stared her in the eye, "What is your name." I said compelling her to tell me the truth, but I felt weaker instantly.
"It's Rose, why do you ask?" she said slightly shaken.
"Because when this is over I'm coming for you." I said and went over to inspect Elena.
While Elena was out I started to think of a plan to get us out, but the truth was I was way too weak to get us both out. I decided one of us would have to get out while the other stayed behind. I wasn't gonna leave her here helpless; yeah I would be weak, but I could force myself to use my magic if push came to shove. Besides this way I could find out what they wanted with us.
About an hour later Elena woke up; "Bella?" she asked.
"Hey I'm here." I said and inspected her cheek. "I think you'll live."
"Where are we?" she asked.
"Kidnapped and from what I can guess in the middle of nowhere." I said.
"What are we going to do?" she asked.
"If you two think you're going to get out of here you are sorely mistaken." Rose said.
"Elena, Rose, Rose, Elena, she's the one who kidnapped us and hit you." I said.
"Why do you want us?" Elena asked.
"Elena don't ask any questions because she isn't going to answer them and she'll probably hit you again, but she's right we aren't getting out of here." I said as I turned to look Elena; "You are." With that the wind whipped around her and she was gone.
"Where is she?" Rose asked lifting me up by my throat.
"Gone." I choked out and then I was thrown into the wall and blackness overtook me.
Damon's Point of View
Bella and Elena hadn't stayed at Elena's house last night and we had no idea where they were. I had explained to Stefan what Katherine had said and he wanted to go talk to her. Bonnie had found another way and as we were about to do the spell I felt a breeze and then Elena was standing in front of us.
"Stefan." She said and he grabbed her.
"Where's Bella?" I asked.
"I don't know. We were kidnapped last night by someone named Rose and there is a guy with her. She knocked me out and when I came to Bella immediately sent me here." Elena said.
"How did she look?" Bonnie asked as Jake held her and I didn't understand what was going on with them or Tyler and Leah.
"Horrible." Elena replied. "I'm pretty sure she probably blacked out after she sent me here."
I slammed my fist down; "Damn it."
Just then the door to the boarding how slammed open and I saw the Cullen's along with some of the pack.
Immediately I was against the wall with Edward in my face, "Where is she?" he asked.
"I don't know she and Elena were kidnapped last night; she sent Elena here and she's still out there." I said and pushed him off of me.
"So what are you doing?" Alice asked.
"Trying to figure out where they are." Bonnie said, "You wouldn't happen to have anything that has Bella's blood on it?"
Stefan and I looked at each other and he ran out of the room and returned with Bella's torn clothes from the werewolf attack. Bonnie took them and started chanting the blood flowed from them and left a trail until it stopped in the middle of nowhere.
I started heading for my car and realized I was being followed by everyone;
"What do you think you're doing?" I asked.
"We are coming with you." Caroline said.
"No you aren't." I said "Especially the humans."
"Fine, Stefan, Edward, Jake, and you go." Bonnie said.
"Very well." I said and we all got into my car and headed for the spot on the map.
Bella's Point of View
I heard voices when I woke up and followed them. I heard Rose say Elijah and I decided that I should make my presence known;
"So who is Elijah and when do I meet him?" I asked.
"You're up how's your head?" Rose asked.
"Hurts like hell; look here Rose there are only two ways I'm going to behave either A. keep me unconscious or B. tell me what I want to know." I said.
"Fine, Elijah is one of the orginal, orginals; the first family." She said. "He and some others want you to do a spell with the moonstone since it has to be a Swan witch."
"Why do they want Elena?" I asked.
"She is the sacrifice you have to kill her. I'm trading you and Elena for Trevor and mine's freedom." Rose said.
"Hello Bella." The man with her said and touched my hand.
I saw that he had trusted Katherine and helped her escape from being the first sacrifice.
"You saw." He said.
"Yeah, now why the hell does Elena need to be the sacrifice and me be the one to cast the spell?"
"Because it was your family that placed the curse on the moonstone. You see the moonstone seals the curse, while killing Elena undoes it." Rose said.
"He's here." Trevor said and I was left standing alone in the room.
I waited there for Rose to return and she did with a man I assumed was Elijah.
"The last living Swan witch." He said and blurred in front of me, "You are a pretty thing."
"Thanks," I said.
"Where's the other one?" he asked.
"I sent her far, far away." I replied.
He grabbed my throat and tried to compel me, "Where is she?"
"She's not here; reality check dude compulsion doesn't work on me and before you even try it no I don't have vervain on me or in my system." I said.
"You're feisty; I like you." He said.
"Well now my mission in life is complete; you like me and the world is right." I said sarcastically.
"It will be once you help kill your friend." He said.
"Then you better kill me because I won't do it." I said.
He turned to Trevor and started spewing crap about forgiveness and then he ripped Trevor's head off and Rose screamed.
Just then we heard a noise upstairs and then Elijah touched my arm and I tensed.
Damon's Point of View
Bella was talking to some man and we had a plan; we were going to distract him in different directions and then kill him. Edward would grab him while he was distracted, Stefan would grab Bella, Jake would bite him and I would shove a stake through his heart.
When we started our plan it was going good until he touched Bella and she was engrossed in a vision.
Edward, I thought, We can't interrupt her during a vision; it could hurt her.
He nodded from across the hall and we waited until she came out of it. When she did we put our plan into action and in the end I staked him with a coat rack.
"Bella," I said and pulled her into my arms, "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine," she said, "I just want to get out of here."
I carried her to the car and the others choose to run back to Mystic Falls. Instantly Bella fell asleep and I drove as fast as I could back to the boarding house. She was still asleep when we arrived and so I took her to the bedroom. Carlisle checked her over and just said she needed rest. We called everyone else and they came immediately. We briefed them and by time Bella woke up it was night and she had been out for about four hours.
I knew she was awake when I heard her footsteps descending the stairs.
"Are you alright?" I asked as I pulled her to my chest.
"I'm fine, who all is here?" she asked.
"Everyone, but you need rest." I said.
She leaned up on her tippy toes and kissed me, "I need to talk to you all." And she walked into the living room.
Bella's Point of View
I woke up in my room at the boarding house and remember everything. My vision about brought me to my knees. All it was, was death; my friends, family, the town, everyone. They would use them against me; sure they could take Elena, but they needed me. I knew my friends wouldn't let me go willingly so I had to do this. I walked down the stairs and Damon met me; it was harder to keep my resolve when all I saw was love, worry, and relief that I was there. I walked into the living room and immediately went by the fire to warm my freezing body.
"Bella…" Edward said.
"No let me speak; I know why they need Elena and I, but they won't get us." I said.
"No they won't because I will protect you." Damon said and blurred next to me.
"You can't." I said and using my powers pushed him back to the others, "I love you all too much to watch you be torn apart to get to me."
"That's what your vision was." Stefan said as he tried to move.
"Yeah, I've already lost Chris to this I won't lose anyone else." I said as tears started to flow.
"Bella we can handle this." Damon said.
"No we can't, but I know a way to fix it." I said and went to touch his cheek.
"What are you doing Bella?" Bonnie asked.
"Saying goodbye." I said.
"You aren't leaving again." Damon said and grabbed my wrists.
"I'm not." I said.
Bonnie put two and two together, "No Bella, don't do this."
"It's the only way Bonnie, as long as you know me and we are close you're in danger." I said.
"What's going on?" Stefan asked.
I pulled away from Damon as Edward said, "She's going to cast a spell to make us forget her."
"Bella Swan don't you dare!" Caroline yelled at me.
I walked over to the fire and began to cry, "Erase me from their hearts and minds I was never here release the ties that bind. The real memory gone a new one in its place; make them forget everything including my face."
The wind whipped and everyone collapsed including the Cullen's. I walked over to Damon and placed a kiss on his lips;
"I'm so sorry, but I can't risk losing you. I promise though I'll be around." I said and left.
A/N: Okay this is more of a filler because what is going to happen next will be complete opposite of the show. Now you maybe wondering if Damon will be going back to his obsession with Elena and all I can say is in the next chapter you will find out. It will be posted before next week's episode. I know this is short but for happens next I promise this will be worth it. Please Review. This is probably one of the only times I will do two chapters in one week on this story. So the more reviews equals the faster the chapter is put up. Please I want your input and your guesses on what might happen next.
