Told from Bonnie Bennett's Point of View.

Bonnie continued walking trying to ignore the sounds of Damon screaming for her. She felt bad, no she felt so much more than bad. She felt, broken. Everything she had put up with Damon over the years; she knew a part of it was because of Katherine. More than a part, that bitch broke him. And then he met Elena. She should've ran with her gut in thinking that was going to fall apart. Granted, she didn't know she'd be one the causes to the falling apart. She hated the idea of Elena hating her, she hated her best friend being mad at her. Though, she understood, right? She lost her brother, for real, and she had to deal with being a vampire. Still, that was no excuse to treat her like shit. To hog everyone. Hell, she didn't want Damon until recently and even at first everyone thought it was the sire bond. Was he that impossible to imagine being with? Yeah, I suppose he is… she told herself finally able to glance back.

"Just keep walking Bonnie, come to me and everything will alright." Bonnie gulped as she slowly approached the cave, all she had to do now was go inside and go down to meet Silas. She hated hearing his voice, knowing he was back in her head, knowing he could threaten her life by threating those she cared about. First thing he said to her after they got Elena was ripping Damon's heart out and realizing there was nothing she could do about it. And then she heard Jeremy's scream. She didn't know if it was real or not, but if Silas could bring that kind of pain to him she could only guess what would happen to Damon. God, stupid Damon. He should've realized they were more alike than he thought before all this, before she died. They both risked their necks for friends and family, they both tried, they both pretended like nothing every affected them in public.

Which was why now it was so hard to walk away. To know she finally felt something for him, to know she really cared about him, that she did love him in that way. But she couldn't—wouldn't let herself think of that. Not now, not knowing this may be her last moment on earth—again. She ran her head along the walls, now at the bottom of the cave. This is was where it happened before. Her, Professor Shane and…she paused at the figure against the wall. He looked still, but how was still able to stand? Was that Jeremy or Silas? Regardless she ran to him, touching his cheeks and urging him to wake up. "Bonnie…?" Jeremy said as he blinked a few times. "What are you doing down here, you're supposed to—why did you come alone?" he asked as Bonnie shook her head.

"All that matters is that we get you out of here…don't worry, we'll figure this out" she whispered as she felt a figure emerge from behind her.

"It's him" Jeremy said, his eyes wide.

"Silas" Bonnie said slowly as she turned around only to see a handsome young man with black hair, sea blue eyes, perfect jaw line, little smirk, hands behind his back and wearing the signature black leather jacket. Bastard. Bonnie thought as she stood in front of Jeremy.

"Hello beautiful" Silas said cheerfully as Bonnie forced herself to stay tense, to focus. He just really sounded like Damon, looked like him. She barely noticed how close he was to her.

"I'm going to get rid of you Silas" she said quietly as she closed her eyes, the spell coming to mind to immobilize Silas. She shut her eyes even tighter, a little pain shooting up the side of her head. She knew this was going to be difficult, she just didn't know, how difficult.

"All you're going to do Bonnie is kill yourself, I suggest you stop, after all, I want to be the one to kill you. As him, right now, I love the irony" Silas continued pleasantly as Bonnie felt her head stinging. This was hurting more than she thought. More than she realized. "Keep it up child, you're doing terrific, you have the spirit in you to get rid of this evilness." Bonnie focused a little more, she knew Grams voice anywhere.

"We got you Bonnie, we're here to help, don't just immobilize him, take his powers, he wants to go so bad, let him." Bonnie didn't recognize the new voice but it only took seconds to realize it was Qetsiyah. "You know we've created that spell together Silas, I know it too" Bonnie heard herself say, though it sounded and felt distant. What was happening?

"It can't be…" Silas said slowly, moving closer to Bonnie, touching her cheek as he scanned her face. "Qetsiyah…" he whispered as Bonnie felt herself smile.

"I loved you once upon a time. But then I saw the destruction you created, the lives you've gone on to ruin. I've decided I can't keep you from that side, from her. But maybe, once she finds out everything, once she sees you for who you are she won't want you either. And you'll finally be alone. You'll be powerless and alone Silas" she spat at him.

"I will rip her heart out before you can utter a word" Silas growled back and maybe just to prove a point he lunged at Bonnie, though she couldn't do anything to stop, didn't move.

"Bonnie!" she heard Jeremy shout as she realized Silas was biting her. He opened his mouth to attack her again but was propelled backwards. Quickly though, he got to his feet. "I. Will. End. You" he said angrily, only partially looking like Damon now.

"Really? Will you?" she asked. Silas, either to angry to reply or anxious to kill Bonnie went to step closer, but nothing happened, he didn't move. "You…you!" he screamed at her.

"No, it's all Bonnie, as long as you underestimate her she will continue to be more powerful than you can ever imagine" she continued as Bonnie raised a hand, ancient words coming to mind as she mumbled under her breath, Silas screaming, no, pleading. But his words became garbled; for a fleeting moment Bonnie could see he was becoming stone, again, but this time, it was more than that. He looked skinner, weaker, almost human. "I'm so sorry my child…" Bonnie heard her Grams say. Bonnie would've asked why, but she couldn't say anything, she was so tired, so numb and dizzy. She just needed to rest for a moment.
