Chapter 29
Bonnie sat cross legged on the dusty floor of the tunnel and focussed her powers on reaching Bridget. It was difficult at first because the group seemed to have been moving but she could pin point the direction in which they were going.
They were coming for her, she breathed a sigh of relief and focussed her magic on contacting Bridget. Something in these underground tunnels had been limiting her abilities and for the first time in months Bonnie had to try extra hard just to do a simple thing such as telepathy.
"Tick Tock Bonnie" Katherine called from her spot against the wall breaking Bonnie's already weak concentration.
"Stop talking" Bonnie answered annoyed. She closed her eyes again and tried to focus but the sound of the vampire doppelgänger tapping her foot got rid of any chance of that. "I need to contact Bridget so that they can find us, but I can't do that with you making these annoying sounds"
Katherine scoffed and stepped off the wall walking toward the rocks that blocked their path.
"You sure you can't just make these rocks go away with your juju?" she asked eyeing the rocks.
"If I could don't you think I would have done it by now?" Bonnie asked and then perked up when she sensed Bianca getting closer.
"What?" Katherine asked walking toward her.
"I can feel them getting closer" Bonnie answered getting up and walking in the direction of Bianca's aura, Katherine rolled her eyes but followed anyway.
"So saving me, not very Bonnie Bennett-y of you" she said smirking as she walked behind the determined witch.
"I saved you so you could owe me" Bonnie lied easily following her senses and turned left into another tunnel.
In truth Bonnie wasn't exactly sure why she saved Katherine, it was like an out of body experience. All she knew is that she saw someone who needed help and she did. Maybe it had something to do with the fact that Katherine looked exactly like Elena and she still had it programmed into her head to put herself in harm's way to save her childhood friend. Or maybe she just had a hero's complex, she wasn't sure but she didn't want to think about it anymore.
"You've been hanging out with Damon way too much" Katherine said with a smirk as Bonnie visibly stiffened.
"I'm not having this conversation with you Katherine" Bonnie said rolling her eyes and stopping at a cross roads to stare at four different tunnels almost laughing at how well this illustrated her life at the moment. Make the wrong choice and be lost in the darkness.
Finding out that she actually met Damon when she was six years old freaked her the. hell. out. Him being her knight in shining armour even back then created some sort of connection between them which put her mind in all sorts of turmoil. First being the fact that she now had very serious feelings for a vampire who was now very much single. How did she even get to this point? She remembered telling Caroline that she didn't forgive him but now she felt like she could forgive him of anything as long as he would plant those lips on her again.
'No Bonnie this is not you' her mind practically yelled at her drowning out Katherine's complaints. It wasn't her at all she didn't fall in love with vampires, that was reserved for people like Caroline, Elena and that Bella girl from twilight. She was the reasonable friend, the one who made the right and moral decisions. Damon saving her when she was a little kid didn't mean anything, it was just one of those random things right? Right?
What happened to the Bonnie she discovered recently? The one who didn't mind just going with things? The one who didn't feel guilty for making out with her ex best friend's boyfriend? Of cause she realised that this was also the same Bonnie who got her into this position in the first place, where she was falling in love with the vampire that pretty much brought her to tears many times before.
'In love?' she stopped in her musings and shook her thoughts away 'nah' she thought smiling sadly.
"Hello?" Katherine called snapping her fingers in front her face making Bonnie slap her hand away annoyed.
"I think we should wait here until they find us" she said going to sit on a boulder. Katherine stared at her for a while before shrugging and going to stand against a wall.
…
"Hey sis, did you feel that?" Bridget stopped as the air rippled with electricity.
"Bonnie?" Betty asked as she raised her hands to feel the air around her.
"Definitely" Bridget said smiling brightly "She's been trying to contact us, oops" she said sheepishly as Damon glared murderously at her.
"And you didn't think to mention this in the first half an hour we were walking through the dark?" he asked stepping dangerously toward her but stopping when Bianca planted her tiny hand on his chest.
"Enough, can we not argue while Bonnie sits waiting for us, probably crying her beautiful green eyes out thinking we've forgotten her!" Betty shouted randomly making everyone stare confused at her.
"C'mon she says she's waiting for us" Bridget said already walking in the direction of where Bonnie was.
Damon removed Bianca's hand slowly and stepped around her to follow Bridget.
That little witch had better have a good reason for risking her life to save Katherine's. He was mad yes but also a little confused as to what possessed her to leave his side where it was safe to help her. He remembered Bianca telling her never to leave his side so what could have been going through her mind that she would be that reckless?
Then he almost laughed, him calling someone else reckless just didn't seem right. All he knew now was that he could sense the little witch nearby and that he didn't need Bridget to lead him anymore.
….
"Bonnie? Bonnie?" she heard him call and got up as he got to the entrance of the tunnel they were waiting in.
She would have said something as he walked toward her but Caroline speeding past him and crushing her in a death hug took her breath away, literally.
"Bonnie oh my god we were so worried! Are you ok?" Caroline said practically squeezing the life out of her.
"Ok…Care...I can't breathe" she said her blood circulation feeling like it was being cut off.
"You're cutting off her circulation Blondie" Damon said pulling her off Bonnie surprisingly gently.
Bonnie expected him to yell, or lecture but was surprised by his aloof attitude as he turned and walked away toward another tunnel.
"Let's go we've lost enough time" he said confusing everyone.
Stefan eyed Katherine who hadn't said a word ever since they got there and watched as she stepped away from the wall and followed the group. She was being uncharacteristically quiet and compliant.
"Actually you can all stop right there" Jamal said stepping out of the shadows of a connecting tunnel and walking toward them followed by two vampires and three werewolves already transformed into wolves.
"Bonnie Bennett, Damon Salvatore, and the Trinity follow me. The rest will stay here" Jamal said turning and waiting for them to follow.
Bonnie was about to follow when Damon grabbed her arm lightly and pulled her toward him. She turned surprised and found herself staring into his azure blue eyes. To the others it just looked like they were having a staring contest but they were locked in silent conversation, nodding slightly Bonnie stepped away from him and raised her hand shakily in the direction of Jamal.
"I wouldn't try that" Jamal said still not turning to face her and kept walking to the entrance of a tunnel slow enough to see what she would do. "Miss Bennett, I suggest you save your strength and follow me" he continued and entered the tunnel.
"Incendia" she called upon her magic and a ball of fire shot from her raised hand in the direction of Jamal. Her eyes widened in surprise when a vampire jumped in front of the attack, got hit and was engulfed in fire.
He screamed in pain as he burned alive and Jamal continued down the tunnel without looking back. "Very well, have it your way" he said chuckling as the entrance to the tunnel closed completely like it had never even been there to begin with.
The burning vampire stopped screaming and was soon reduced to a pile of ash. Matt could barely take a breath when a female vampire sped toward him about to bite him when Rebekah stepped in front of him and ripped her heart out.
"And here comes the hard part" Damon muttered as he stepped in front of Bonnie defensively when a werewolf lunged at them.
"Damon!" Bonnie screamed horrified when the werewolf almost bit him but she breathed a sigh of relief when he overpowered the werewolf and pushed it off him.
"Don't just stand there witchy, help a guy out would ya?" he called as the werewolf began to surround them. She rolled her eyes at him and froze the werewolf in place as it was about to attack them.
Betty and Bridget took a step back as the other two werewolves stepped toward them as Bianca teleported in front of them.
"I don't know about you guys but I'm not in the mood to get bitten by a werewolf right now" she said smirking at the growling vampires as she raised her hands and chanted a spell.
….
"You delivered the message?" Joshua asked Jamal as he entered the cave they were sitting in.
"Yeah, but as expected they didn't take the idea of separating too well" Jamal said as the other already transformed werewolves bowed to him.
"How predictable of them, they're making this game way too easy for me. Oh well at least my plan is working out perfectly." Joshua said sighing holding out his glass as Andy poured whiskey into it.
"Not exactly" Andy said getting their attention. "We still don't know who this David guy is" she said nonchalantly while staring at the fire that displayed the entire fight between the werewolves and the gang.
"I wouldn't worry too much babe, that David guy still hasn't made a move to defend himself. My guess is he's just like that Matt guy, talks a big game but can't deliver shit" He said taking a sip of his whiskey savouring the taste.
"Remember the first rule, never underestimate an opponent" Jamal said going to sit down on the couch they had brought in earlier.
"They're not opponents Jamal, they all just toys for me to keep myself preoccupied with" Joshua said getting up and pouring more whiskey into his glass as Jamal scoffed at his arrogance.
…..
"That was way too easy" Alice said stepping away from the wall and staring at the dead werewolves and vampires on the floor.
"Would you have liked more of a challenge?" Damon asked eyeing his torn leather jacket before taking it off, removing something from the pocket and throwing it to the ground showing off the impressive muscles on his arms.
Bonnie averted her eyes and put her concentration back on Matt's injured arm. Closing her eyes she muttered the spell and his arm began to heal until there was no evidence of injury left.
"Thanks for… saving me" Stefan said to Matt who just shrugged in return.
Bonnie smiled with pride at the memory of Matt shooting the werewolf with a crossbow before it could bite Stefan. He however did get an injury when he fell on his arm as the werewolf lunged for him, despite Rebekah's best attempts to make sure he didn't get hurt.
"She's right" Bridget said stepping forward and surveying the dead bodies "That was way too easy" she said poking at the dead werewolf with her boot.
"Maybe they were just testing us" Stefan said furrowing his eyebrows deep in thought.
"Even their tests aren't this easy" Bianca said and then gasped when the werewolf Bridget had been poking suddenly jumped up and lunged for her, luckily she sped safely out of the way.
The werewolf sped toward the other werewolves and nudged them awake with its nose. Once awakened they all howled as if toward the moon and replicated themselves into two's.
"You just had to question it didn't you?" Damon asked them huffing as the werewolves multiplied themselves into twelve.
"Well what do we do now?" Alice asked as the werewolves stepped toward them growling viciously.
"We run dumbass" he said picking Bonnie up Bridle style and speeding through one of the tunnels as three werewolves sped after them.
"You heard the man, run!" David said grabbing Alice and Ruby's hands before teleporting into another set of caves.
Bridget, Betty, Bianca and Caroline didn't need to be told twice as they sped off in the direction of another set of tunnels being chased by six werewolves.
"C'mon" Stefan said speeding after Bonnie and Damon followed Katherine and Elena, leaving Matt and Rebekah to be surrounded by three angry werewolves.
"You're going to have to climb on my back" Rebekah told Matt as the werewolves stepped toward them.
"What?" he asked looking at her as if she were crazy.
"Believe me, this would be more embarrassing for me then it would be for you. But the fact is, you're not a vampire or a warlock so the fastest way for us out of here would be for you to get on my back" she said stepping back as the werewolves got closer.
Matt wanted to protest more but Rebekah rolled her eyes threw him over her shoulder and sped after Caroline.
….
"Where are we going?!" Bonnie asked/ yelled holding her arms around his neck for dear life as he sped through the dark tunnels as fast as he could away from the growling werewolves behind them.
This was all so frustrating to him, being forced to run from seemingly immortal werewolves just felt unnatural to him somehow. But he went through being bitten by a werewolf once already and he was not looking for a repeat.
What was up with that anyway? As far as he knew, werewolves weren't immortal and they could die just as well as a vampire but these werewolves could survive having their hearts ripped out and could apparently multiply as well! It all just seemed like one bad joke to him but he didn't have time to question the mechanics of it now, he needed to lose them and fast.
"I have no idea, but I figure it should be far away from fluffy and his friends don't you think?" he growled angrily as he heard the wolves gaining on them.
She was about to reply when a werewolf jumped over them and landed in front of them in a predatory stance.
"Shit" Damon cursed stopping in his tracks as the wolves surrounded them.
"Damon put me down" Bonnie said gently as he tightened his grip on her. "Damon" she called again sternly this time a little louder making him frown in annoyance but comply, as he put her down gently.
She held her hands out in front of her and mumbled the spell again freezing them in place before setting them on fire.
Already they were beginning to heal so without a word Damon picked her up and sped off hoping that with the head start they could put enough space between them and the wolves so that they could rest.
…..
"Stefan I smell smoke" Elena called from behind him, he looked back and nodded turning into another tunnel to get away from the fire.
Katherine and Elena followed him, speeding up even more when they heard werewolves run in their direction.
They stopped running when they got to a dead end.
"Crap what now?" Katherine asked as the sounds of the wolves grew closer.
"We could always offer you as a gift and Elena and I could make a run for it" Stefan said feeling along the walls of the tunnel for a soft spot making Elena smirk.
"Leave the humour to Damon, Stefan, you were always more of the strong silent type" Katherine said stepping back when she noticed the shadows of three wolves creeping closer.
"We need to get out of here" Elena said stepping back and falling through a trap door.
"You okay?" Stefan asked helping her up as Katherine stepped around them and entered through the trap door.
"I'm fine" she said softly as he held her up.
Katherine stuck her head out and stared at the two before rolling her eyes.
"Not that I want to break up this lovely romantic moment but in case you've forgotten, we need to get out of here" she said grabbing their attention before stepping deeper into the dark cave like room.
They followed and Stefan closed the trap door before rolling a giant boulder in front of it to make sure they weren't followed.
"What is this place?" Elena asked no one in particular and Stefan shrugged as he looked around.
"It was a hide out for the runaway slaves" Katherine answered lighting a lantern with matches that she found on an old wooden table.
"How do you know that?" Stefan asked walking to the other side of the cave and opening another trap door that lead to another set of tunnels.
"Emily told me about it" she said shrugging before exiting through the trap door he had just opened. "C'mon we have to keep moving" she called walking through a tunnel.
Elena stared at Stefan to see what he would do and her eyes widened in surprise when he shrugged and followed the older vampire.
"Wait, we're …coming" Stefan called after Katherine following her and looked back to make sure Elena was following.
…..
Betty stopped running when she spotted someone up ahead making Bridget, Bianca and Caroline come to a complete stop behind her.
"Hey why'd you stop?" Bridget asked walking toward her sister, who still had her back toward her.
"Who's that?" Betty asked pointing at the teenage girl with long black hair and chocolate brown skin sitting on a boulder.
Bianca narrowed her eyes when she felt the girl's dark aura and went to stand in front of her sisters and Caroline defensively.
"You finally showed up, I was beginning to think I'd have to sit here and wait all night" the girl said hopping off the boulder easily "Forgive my rudeness, I'm Aisha, a phoenix vampire, and I'm here to kill Blondie over there" she said smirking and motioning to a stunned Caroline who stood behind the three defensive sisters.
…
A.N: And that's a wrap! Let me know what you think? I'm already working on chapter 30 so that should be up by Friday. Aisha wants to kill Caroline? Did Damon and Bonnie outrun the wolves? And where are Matt and Rebekah?
