Chapter 25

I never would have imagined that Rebekah Mikaelson would be helping me out. From the moment I found out about what I was, I've had a hate for the Mikaelson family that wasn't warranted.

Rebekah allowed me to stay there while I went over the spell. I didn't want anyone knowing about what I was doing. I knew that Bonnie would have a suspicion but I hoped she wouldn't share that information, especially not to Damon.

Looking over the spell it seemed fairly easy, we'd just have to see if I had enough power to do it. Rebekah told me about the last time it was done, one of the most powerful witches New Orleans has ever seen did it but even she had issues. Rebekah supplied me with the sanguinum knot and candles, once everything was all set up she left me to do the spell.

I had a candle lit of each side of me, then I place the sanguinum knot in front of me. Rebekah gave me an idea of how this was supposed to work but this was the first really powerful spell that I have done and I had to admit I was a little scared.

I took a deep breath then started chanting, "Phasmatos omnio ligor coldate sangorium...Phasmatos omnio ligata soluto...Phasmatos omnio ligata soluto vingulia cordit."

I felt disappointed rush through me, the knot was still fully tied. I breathed in and out a few times, completely clearing my mind. I concentrated then started chanting again. This time while I was finishing it the third time the knot began to levitate, then untied itself.

My heart was racing, I knew it worked, I could feel it in every bone in my body. I knew this wasn't something that I really wanted to do but it was something I had to. I knew by the way I felt in that moment that this was exactly what I was meant to do. I knew this was only step one in waking Elena but now she was no longer linked to Bonnie. Now was the fun part, I had to not only come up with a spell to awaken her but I have to find her body without arousing suspicions.

Knowing I didn't want to involve Bonnie I was stuck, I didn't know how else I was going to find Elena without some help. I picked up the unknotted rope and blew out the candles. As I walked into the room where Rebekah stood, I could tell by her smile that she already knew I completed the spell.

"Well I guess I haven't given you enough credit" She admitted "So what are we doing next?"

She shocked me, I hadn't expected her to want to help me. But decided I'd just go with it, since I had no other option anyway. "I need to find out where Elena's body is."

"Oh that's easy, Tyler has her." Rebekah stated like I had any idea who Tyler was.

"Well do you think it's possible to get her?" I asked.

She flashed a smile "Anything is possible when you're a Mikaelson."

I couldn't help but laugh and by the looks that Rebekah were giving me she wasn't appreciating it much. Once I was finally able to catch my breath, I apologized for laughing but Rebekah just ignored me. "Oh don't act all hurt."

I don't know exactly what prompted me to do it but I hugged her, once I felt her stiffen my mind finally caught up with what I was doing and a backed away slowly. She was giving me a look that I didn't know what to think of.

Finally I said, "Don't mind me, my brain isn't cooperating."

That made her smile a little, so something was better than nothing.

"Anyway… If you wouldn't mind working on getting Elena here and I'm going to figure out a waking up spell, I guess you would call it." I chuckled when I got to the waking up spell part, I honestly didn't know what to call it, maybe a reverse sleeping spell, oh who knows.

My phone started ringing, when I looked at my phone and noticed it was Bonnie calling it only meant one thing, she must have known what I done.

I hesitated a minute, then took a deep breath and answered the phone.

"What did you do?" Bonnie sounded excited.

"I don't know what you mean." I tried to play it off.

"You know exactly what I mean, you broke our linking spell didn't you?" She asked.

"Linking spell?" I acted confused.

"Skye don't play games with me, I know you are the only one who could have done it." Bonnie was getting impatient.

"What if I did?" I asked her cautiously.

"What do you mean, why wouldn't you want me to know you did it?" Bonnie was confused.

"I didn't do this ok… As far as you know, you have no idea how it happened." I told her hoping she understood.

"Oh" Was all she said, obviously connecting the dots. "Can I help with the other thing?"

"Huh?" Now was my turn to be confused.

"What you're probably working on right now, can I help?" She asked, not wanting to actually say.

I wasn't sure how I hadn't figured out what she was talking about until then. "Uh, I don't know."

"Come on, I know you could use some help, you don't have to do everything on your own." Bonnie begged.

"I'm not." I didn't really think about what I had said before I said it, not thinking that it may hurt Bonnie's feelings that I was working with someone else. But it wasn't like I was doing magic with Rebekah though, she couldn't do magic.

"Well ok then, I guess she's helping you with it then." Bonnie said obviously upset.

"No actually she's not but actually Bonnie, now to think of it, I could use a little bit of help." I caved because I felt bad.

"Good, I have a couple spells I'd like you to look over to see if you think they'd work." Bonnie's mood changed immediately.

I chuckled, she just played me and I knew it now, she knew if she played upset that I'd agree to let her help. "Alright I'll stop back by in a few."

So Elena and Bonnie are no longer linked, thanks to Esther's Unlinking Spell. Next step, wake Elena up...
