Disclaimer: Don't own this show, or it's characters.

Note: Sorry this update has taken so long. I also apologize in advance for any mistakes, as not had chance to go over this as many times as I would like. To make up for the lack of update, this chapter is twice as long as my last one :). Been a while since I wrote a long chapter. More Kai and Parkers next chapter. As I know there has not been enough of that crazy family. Again, this story was a a surprise. I honestly remember writing it out of frustration for this show and how they treat Bonnie and the Witches. Also, all the wasted characters. You will see I have used many of them in this. I know I have added werewolves, but this story is still witch-centered.

Hope you enjoy, and please remember to review and tell me what you like about this story. I'm keeping it going for you guys now. :)


- Out of the woods -


I had one of those moments. The moment where others tell you they see their life flashing before their eyes. I'm sure my life and drama would take longer than a quick flash, but I didn't want to see it played out.

Everything felt like it was in slow motion. My feet wouldn't move, my whole body was still as a statue. My eyes were wide, as I looked into Tyler's lit up moon-werewolf eyes. The colour they shone was amazing. A flash of pure silver, making his his pupils look enlarged and dilated. They were glowing in a creepy supernatural way, and much to my shock and surprise, he also had sharp teeth and long fangs!

When on earth had he grown fangs? My mind questioned, as my body refused to move. He was about to jump on me and sink his teeth into flesh, and I couldn't do anything about it.

"Bonnie!" I heard Rai shout.

All of a sudden Tyler was sent flying backwards, crashing into the small wooden bed. I heard the wood snap, and Tyler let out a feral growl that made my body shake with fear.

"Are you okay?" Rai asked me, pushing my hair back.

I smiled at her in gratitude, and looked behind me to see that Vicky was gaining consciousness. She held her head and looked up at us, looking very disorientated.

"Shit. Did you two slip me something? My head feels like someone just whacked me with a baseball bat," she mumbled into her hands.

I sighed. There was no time to explain, as I looked at Tyler. He was breathing heavily, and his eyes were closed. He almost looked at peace, it was a sad sight. He was battered and bruised like a neglected young man that had been beaten to death. I had to help him, no matter what.

"Tyler," I whispered. Too scared to go to him and wake him up.

He groaned, and moved slightly. He didn't get up, which was a bonus. Hopefully that meant I could approach him without getting my head literally chewed off my body. I got a little closer, my feet finally willing to move. He stirred then, and looked up at me with his dark eyes. They had resumed their natural colour, and he had lost the creepy fangs.

"Bonnie... get out...of...here," he managed to get out inbetween ragged breathing.

"No Tyler, I'm here to help you," I tried to soothe him best as I can.

I got closer, and put a hand on his clammy forehead. The sweat was still dripping off him, like he had just had a shower. Despite being sweaty, his skin was cold as ice. I kept my hand there, and had to move it as the heat radiating from his skin seared my hand.

It seemed his temperature kept changing in the space of only minutes. I looked at Rai, who was helping Vicky. I looked to her for answers, and she shrugged.

"Their temperature changes, like Yin and Yang. Yin being more associated with the moon, and cold. His moon self is fighting his human self, causing an imbalance of sorts. " She looked at Tyler with concern.

I stared at her in confusion. What the hell was she talking about? then again, it was probably some magic history I still needed to catch up on. I sighed and held Tyler's hand. It was clammy and cool, compared how hot he was a minute ago. I wondered if that meant the moon-self was winning?

"Bonnie, we need to get out of here before he changes," Rai whispered.

Of course it was useless to whisper, as Vicky heard everything. She also had seen most of it, which would be hard to explain later.

"Change into what? What the actual hell are you two talking about? The only thing Ty turns into, is a massive douche bag most of the time." Vicky now got up on her feet, dusting herself off.

She was crossing her arms, and looking at me for an explanation. One I couldn't give.

"Look Vicky, I know this is too much to take in right now, but Tyler is sick." I hope that would bring out her older sister concern she usually had.

She did look sympathetic then, as she looked down at Tyler who was out cold on the bed.

"Fine, let's get this idiot out of here. Then you and blonde pixie here, will explain everything to me, okay?" She had that stern look, that meant she would not take no for an answer.

I looked at Rai, and we both nodded in agreement. We could figure out what to say to Vicky later, right now Tyler was our main concern.

We all took ahold of him, lifting him up and getting him through the small door. He was heavier than he looked, but Tyler was all muscle afterall. I was relieved to feel the cool night air when we got outside. It helped Tyler, as he started burning up again. We laid him down on the floor, and I almost screamed in shock when I saw Kai and Luka.

They were running towards us with a look of panic. I'm guessing the werewolves were hot on their heels.

"Bon, sister dearest, and Bonnie's very drunk friend; I'm afraid we need to get going, like now!" Kai was yelling at us, as they approached the clearing.

"Are you guys okay? " I was concerned, as I had left them battling furry fiends.

"For now, yes. Kai is right though, they won't leave us alone for long. Kai and I managed to cast a spell to throw their scent off, but it won't last long. Werewolf's sense of smell is equal, in fact better, than a vampire's senses." Luka was looking behind himself as he said this. Checking to see if they were still being hunted.

"Q&A session later Bon, we got to get going, now. Is that him?" Kai asked.

He had only just noticed Tyler laying there. Raising his eyebrow in surprise.

"Yes, we need to get him to a safe place." I looked at both of them in question.

They shared a look I didn't like. One that said they had already reached a decision with regards to Tyler, when I was not with them earlier.

"Yeah, about that, so Luka said his coven of up-tight witches can take him for a bit." Kai was looking at me for permission.

I was glad he at least wanted to consult with me first. I looked at Luka, whom nodded in agreement with Kai's suggestion.

"Yes, we think it's best for now. We can watch him, and make sure he doesn't cause any harm," Luka looked at Tyler with concern as he said this.

I nodded, but was still unsure. I knew he couldn't be put with Tessa, as she was already under enough pressure from the witch community. Then there was Matt and Caroline staying with us. Kai's father sounded like an asshole, and I doubt he would be happy with a werewolf dumped on his door step.

So Luka it was.

"Okay." I agreed.

Luka came to where Tyler was laying down. Vicky and Rai were watching with interest, as he went to place his hand on Tyler's head.

"What the hell is he doing? Ty needs more than a head massage right now!" Vicky yelled at him.

Luka smiled, and looked to me to calm Vicky down. I knew then he was probably going to cast some magic, and didn't need Vicky interfering. I looked at Rai, but Kai had already beat me to it.

"Rai, take Bonnie's little friend back to the city. I'm sure your little ghostie friend can help you find your way out," he gave her a serious look.

Rai rolled her eyes, looking peeved.

"How many times ass-face, my spirit friends don't always help me. I don't control them, you know that!" she sounded exasperated.

"Then you need to get better spirit friends." He laughed at her in a mocking way.

"You need to stop making fun of my ability. You know what Kai, sometimes I think you're just jealous," she huffed, crossing her arms.

A dark look crossed over Kai's features then, at the mention of jealousy. I knew that look. I was starting to recognize the facial masks he wore. The look he had now, was the one he didn't let slip often. Only when something triggered it. It was an extremely hostile look. Luckily Vicky was concentrating on what Luka was doing with Tyler, to notice them argue.

"Jealous? Of who? You? Oh golly gosh, of course I am! I would love to have creepy spirits following me around, asking me favors, scaring the living shit out of me daily. Or maybe I'm jealous Jo? my dear twin, who hates doing magic, more than she hates being part of our crappy little coven. Yeah, it's always jealousy with you guys huh?" You could hear the anger in his tone.

Rai's peeved look suddenly changed to an empathetic one. She looked at her brother in a different way, like she felt sorry for bringing up the subject matter. I stood there, not wanting to interfere.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring-"

He cut her off.

"Shove your sorry, okay ghost girl? I don't need your pity. You're not even a twin, remember that. You know the name Gemini, kind of implies you need a twin to join the party. Truth is, you don't matter Rai. You and our other twin-less siblings. I mean I don't either, according to dear old Dad, but don't for one second think you're better than me." His voice was lowered, but his anger was like a sharp edge cutting through you.

I watched in worry, as Rai looked about ready to cry. I wanted to comfort her, but the way they sounded, it seemed this argument was a family drama. Like it was constantly brought up, and I didn't know if it was my place to interfere.

"I wasn't Kai, I don't think that." She whispered so quietly, I barley caught it.

"Good. Now can we get going? I don't fancy being eaten tonight. I would like to keep my handsome face from being chewed off," his tone was less confrontational now.

He was back to all-jokes Kai. It made my head spin, how he could change so fast. Still, I knew that in order to really care about someone, I needed to get used to their facets.

I looked down to see what Luka was doing, and noticed straight away that Tyler was gone. He had vanished into thin air!

"Where is Tyler?" I looked around anxiously.

Luka looked at me like it should have been obvious, but took pity when he saw my worried expression.

"He's safe Bonnie. He's in my coven's little sanctuary, which we call home. I just need to make sure he will be safe to let loose on the street, before he's allowed out." He gave me a thoughtful look.

I still panicked like crazy. What would I tell tell Caroline and Matt? Who were counting on me to bring him back, and explain the situation?

Kai noticing my look of turmoil, put a reassuring hand on my shoulder. Gently rubbing it, trying to calm me down.

"He will be okay Bonnie, I promise. Luka may act like an uptight-ass, but he's good on his word. He knows this dude is your friend, and won't let anything happen to him." He reassured me.

I nodded, wanting to trust him. I could see from the corner of my eye that Vicky shared the same look of concern. She was also looking around for Tyler, as if she expected him to reappear.

"The actual fuck? Dude, this is a prank, right? I'm on that Ashton Kutcher show punk'd, or something? Did Matt put you up to this Bonnie? Because I will kill the little shit for this." She crossed her arms, letting out a sigh of frustration.

I at this point would rather her think it was a prank, than have to explain the whole situation. Rai did me a solid, and comforted Vicky. Which she seemed thankful for.

"Right, you three, let's go," Kai looked at each of us.

Luka was already heading off down another path. I desperately wanted to follow him and check to see where he hid Tyler. I had no idea they could just teleport people, but apparently witches could. I thought only Silas and his immortals had that power; Guess I was wrong about that.

"We will see him later Bon. Right now, you look like you could use a hot drink." He was looking down at me with a comforting smile.

I smiled back, even though I wasn't really in the mood. I was anxious as hell, but the handsome devil had taken on a huge beast for me. So I was at least going to try and act braver than I felt. I nodded, and he finally looked at Rai and Vicky. Rai was still rubbing Vicky's arm, whispering words of comfort in her ear. Vicky seemed to be silent, so I guess it was working.

"What about you two? Fancy some nice hot chocolate? I will even throw in some jello and colouring books if you're good," he added with a cheery lilt.

They both glared at him, which just made him look further amused.

"Get bent, asshole," Rai muttered.

She was still holding Vicky, who suddenly perked up at the mention of hot chocolate.

"Fine cutie, but you're buying." She sighed in defeat. She looked as warn out and tired as I felt.

With this, Vicky walked further ahead. We started to move with her. It was a silent journey on the way back. A few times Kai brushed my hand with his own, letting me know he was there. I felt bad, but I was still trying to get my ahead around all the events that had just occurred these last few hours.

I barley noticed when we reached the diner, till Rai let out a cheerful laugh.

"Yes! We're here. The Gemini kids fav hang out, the local Portland diner," she let out in a rush of excitement.

I noticed it was the same one myself and Davina had been too. Where I first met the creepy clan known as Gemini coven, or at least family. I wondered if they finally had the chocolate milk that Davina had craved, and led me to meeting the guy I was beginning to fall slowly in love with.

I looked at Kai, who was heading into the diner with a grumpy Vicky and happy Rai. I looked down and noticed my clothes were still covered in bits of mud and twigs. All four of us, except Rai, still looked like we had gone for a a very long trek in the woods.

I contemplated on whether or not I should go to Tessa's and shower, which I desperately needed. Problem was that meant running into Caroline and Matt, which means I would have to explain everything. Tessa would also want the full story. I needed to get my head round it first, before I disclosed any information to them.

I followed them into the diner, to find it almost empty. There was one lady in a business suit drinking coffee, occupying the table on the left. Then an old couple sharing late night lunch on the right. I forgot how late it was, and was glad the diner stayed open. I didn't notice how hungry I was, seeing as I hadn't eaten since we set off.

Our table was further down at the back, so we had alot of privacy. Perfect for discussing supernatural problems we had just faced.

"So, what's good to eat here?" Vicky mumbled. Her face stuck into the menu she was reading.

"The cheese fries are yummy!" Rai replied enthusiastically.

Vicky gave her an unimpressed look, and I was really hoping that Rai's sunny attitude would start to rub off on her. I just couldn't deal with her mood swings right now. I felt on the verge of a nervous breakdown myself.

"Fine, guess the cheese fries it is. I want that hot chocolate pretty boy was talking about, with extra marshmallows and cream." She ordered like she was a queen, staring Kai down with folded arms.

I didn't need to look at him to know he was glaring back.

"Yes your highness," he scoffed, before turning to me. I was looking down at the table, trying not to let any emotion show on my face.

"Bonnie?"

I heard him say my name, but I felt like I was in dream-world.

"Yo Bonnie, can you hurry up and order! I'm so damn hungry, I could eat all of you right now." I heard Vicky grumble in annoyance.

I finally looked up, trying to get my head out of it's daydream.

"Uhh, sorry about that. I will just have whatever." I said my words so fast, I doubt he heard me.

"I don't think they have whatever on the menu, Bon." Kai sounded concerned.

"How about we all get cheese fries?" Rai chimed in, trying to lift our moods.

I nodded in her direction. "What she said." I looked at Kai and smiled cheerfully.

He didn't ask anymore questions, instead going off to get our orders. I felt my fingers shake slightly from nerves, and was happy to see Rai and Vicky still discussing food choices to notice. I tried to hide my hands under the table, but felt my whole body clam up with jittery nerves. It must be all the adrenaline from what had happened earlier. I still had Tyler's werewolf face fresh in my mind, and it scared me. Maybe because he was not some Portland stranger, he was one of my mystic falls friends I had grown up with. I just didn't know how to deal with him going through this supernatural problem, and it worried me.

So lost in my thoughts, I did not even notice Kai come back with our food in hand. He put a gentle hand on my shoulder with a stern look, and looked at the other two girls who had finished their conversation.

"Okay, why don't you two go powder your noses or something. I need to talk to Bonnie alone." It was a stern order, using his older brother voice he was so adept at.

I gave him an annoyed look, but he was glaring down at me. I couldn't really look into his dark blue eyes when he looked like that. Rai looked at me in worry, but then nodded in understanding. Vicky was not so keen to follow his orders, but looked like she would also follow it.

"Look asshole, I will pretend you didn't just say that sexist comment, and leave you two to make out or whatever. I need to pee anyway." She got up in a very un-graceful way, still slightly drunk from earlier.

I was happy when Rai helped her to the bathroom, but not so happy about being left alone with Kai.

"So, want to tell me what the hell your drunk friend was talking about earlier." He sat down across from me, looking at me like he was trying to assess every reaction I had to his words.

Of course my first reaction was panic, as I looked down at the yummy fries in front of me. Of course I felt too sick to eat now. Just my damn luck.

"It's a friend of my aunt's, okay? Vicky was just exaggerating." I hoped that would end it.

Looking at his now aggravated face, I guess he wasn't buying it.

"Bonnie, I can tell when someone is lying. Believe me, I perfected the perfect look to hide it over the years. Who were the dudes that she said kidnapped you? And when were they here? I don't like the thought of any guy laying a hand on you," there was evident rage in his voice.

He closed his eyes and let out a long breath he had been holding, rubbing his fingers through his short chocolate brown hair. I wanted to rub my own fingers through it, and pretend Vicky never opened her big mouth. I didn't want to lie to him, but I couldn't tell him everything about Silas, as it would mean more trouble for Tessa. I had already caused enough of that for her.

"You're not going to tell me, are you?" It wasn't really a question, more of a statement.

I tried to give him my best lost puppy look, hoping to distract him. It didn't work, so I went with the truth.

"We were fine Kai. These were just friends of my aunt's friend. He would never let anything happen to us, especially my great aunt. He really loves her, or is obsessed with her. Vicky and I just happened to get caught up in their drama. It was all fine in the end, and no one was hurt. I promise," I reassured him.

He didn't look as reassured as I had hoped, but he accepted what I said.

"Fine, but next time you sense any danger to yourself, you come to me. You have a witch's intuition now, which is sort of like an alarm bell that will go off when there is any danger coming your way. I want to be the first person you come to if that bell goes off, understand?" his tone was stern.

I was not used to that, considering how lax my father was when it came to parental responsibility. I honestly wanted to tell him I didn't need a babysitter, that I could take care of myself. Still, it was nice to have someone look out for me for a change. I always felt like the big sister taking care of my friends. It was nice to feel like someone would have my back, when I didn't think or care about myself in situations like this.

"I will," I promised.

I reached out my hand, and he did the same. We both held each others hand like a handshake and comfort all in one. As if that was not enough skin contact, he reached out and touched my cheek. I enjoyed the feel of the soft skin of his fingers, and missed him leaning over the table to kiss me. He was as impatient as I was to feel our lips touch once more, as he placed a soft kiss against my lips. Feeling like I needed more, I pulled him closer and let him know I was not letting him go.

He grinned against my mouth, and deepened the kiss. His tongue lightly licking my lower lip, as his teeth bit into the plumpness his kiss was causing. I gasped a little, and was happy there was no one else around to witness us kissing like two horny teenagers. I wanted to continue, but we were interrupted.

"Geez Louise! can you two not make out all over our food? get a damn motel room or something." Came Vicky's loud voice.

We both turned to look at her and Rai. Rai was looking more amused that anything. I felt my cheeks burn, and wanted to run from the scene of the crime. Kai seemed positively delighted by Vicky's idea.

"Hey, not a bad idea. I could do with a break from here. How about it Bon? Fancy a romantic get-away?" He grinned at me.

I wanted to slap him, but didn't want to act like a teen with a crush in front of my friends.

"Hey bro, you're not taking Bonnie to a hotel like she is one of your flavors of the week!" I was glad Rai answered for me.

"More like flavor of the month, or year in fact." Kai continued to joke, grinning at me as he did so.

"Okay, I need the bathroom." I got up and left them debating.

While in the bathroom I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. I honestly don't know how my phone didn't get broken when I was running from werewolves in a muddy forest. I checked to see who it was. Caroline and Matt had both sent texts:

"Bonnie did you find Tyler? Bring him back asap!"

This was not good. If only they knew...
