Alex's P.O.V
Elena and I were still talking to Rose. We heard, Trevor I think his name was, walk-in behind us. Elena didn't notice, but I turned my head and saw Trevor standing behind us casually with his hands on his hips. "Tell me more," Elena basically commanded Rose.
"Captivity has made her pushy, eh? What do you want to know doppelicious?" Trevor said as he grabbed a piece of wood to cover the window. Ok, what the actual fuck? I will not let this become a love square between Elena, my brothers, and this idiot.
"Please, don't," I groaned at him as I gave him an annoyed glare. "You sound like Damon."
"And captivity seems to have pissed you off," Trevor observed, and I flicked him off before he placed the wood on the window so that he could walk over to us.
"Screw you."
"Who were you running from?" Elena asked quickly, which both stopped Trevor and me from arguing further, as well as, me talking about Damon.
She still hates him for snapping Jeremy's neck. Long Story short, Damon saw Kathrine again. Kathrine gave Damon hope that she was in love with him. Katherine took Damon's heart and crushed it in front of him. Not literally or he would be dead, which he isn't. Damon went to Elena to try and pick up the pieces by kissing her and telling her how he felt about her, but she pushed him away. Elena said she will only ever love our little brother, Stefan.
Damon got angry. Jeremy walked into the room while this was happening and since he wanted to be a vampire before all this, Damon decided to grant him that wish without any vampire blood his system. Elena screamed and Damon left out of guilt.
"The Originals," Trevor answered.
"Yeah, she said that. What does that mean?" Elena said, and I answered.
"They're the first family of vampires from a thousand years ago." Elena turned around to look at me. "They either trust you and let you live or they don't and they kill you. Pretty simple, really. I'm guessing you two pissed them off," I said to Rose and Trevor.
"How do you know so much?" Trevor asked me.
"I read about them in Vampire Weekly." I snapped at him.
"Anyway." Trevor turned his attention back to Elena. "Rose and I pissed them off-"
"Mm-mmm" Rose interjected.
"Correction - I pissed them off. Rose," He pointed to her as he picked up a book. "Rose had my back. And for over half a millennium, they've wanted us dead." He explained as he threw the book at my legs. Elena jumped in fright at the sound, whereas I didn't react to it and both Trevor and I stared at each other. If looks could kill, we'd both be dead.
"What did you do?" Elena asked them, and I was wondering the same thing.
"He made the same mistake countless others did - the trusted Katerina Petrova," Rose said. Why does that bitch have to be at the center of everything?
"Katherine. Of course." I groaned.
"The one and only - the first Petrova Doppelgänger," Rose informed us as she began to walk out of the room. I turned as I watched her walk out.
"I helped her escape her fate, and now I've - sorry, we've - been marked ever since," Trevor explained.
"Yup, because you don't cross them." I turned back to him. "Even I figured that out just by hearing simple rumors," I said pointing out the obvious.
"Which is why we're not gonna make the same mistake again," Rose told me and I crossed my arms. Trevor dropped the book, which slammed against the table, before flashing Elena a devious smile and me a pissed off expression. I just scoffed at him as he walked passed us and out of the room with Rose.
Elena and I walked back into the room with the broken chandelier. Both of us were about to sit down when I grabbed her arm and turned her towards me. "Hey, you ok?" I asked her and she nodded.
"Yeah, I'm fine," Elena answered and then let out a shaky breath. The look she gave told me she wanted me to drop it, but she should have thought about that before letting out that breath of air.
"Elena, you just found out you were going to get used in a random sacrifice in order to break some spell, and you believe that I think you're ok with that? Because I wouldn't be." I said to her softly. Her expression turned cold and she ripped her arm from my grasp. You do know you could have just asked for me to let go of you?
"Yeah, well, you're not me." Elena snapped and plopped down on the couch. She turned her head to look away from me. Look I can understand that your in shock that you might die, but you don't have to be a bitch when all I'm doing is asking if you're ok! I was about to sit in the chair next to her because there was a black duffle bag on the couch with her when we both heard a crunch sound as she brought feet up onto the couch.
I walked closer to her as she grabbed the crumpled up paper that was under her shoe. Elena unfolded it and held it so we could both read it. " Stefan and Damon are coming for you guys. -B " Thank you, Bonnie, thank you.
Rose walked into the room where we were in, before walking around the couch and grabbing the small black duffle bag that was on the couch. She walked over to grab a pair of shoes and came to the chair I was sitting in. I moved to the couch before she places the bag in the chair and put the shoes inside. You could've asked me to move, you know? I looked at Elena who was watching Rose as she packed away her things. Trevor came rushing into the room and we watched him make his way over to Rose like he had seen a ghost. Woah, calm down, dude.
"He's here!" Elena turned to him, afraid. "This was a mistake," Trevor said as he began to freak out. Oh, nevermind he gets a pass.
"No, I told you I would get us out of this. You have to trust me." Rose said, and Trevor turned to her.
"No! He wants me dead, Rose!" He yelled at her.
"He wants them more," Rose said pointing at us. Trevor looked at us, and I waved at him with a smile. Elena slapped my shoulder, and we glared at each other.
"I can't do this. You give the girls to him, he'll have mercy on you, but I need to get out of here." Trevor said as Rose walked up to him.
"Hey! What are we?" Rose said as she held his shoulders. Trevor closed his eyes as he took a deep breath.
"We're family, forever," Trevor answered. Woah, is this how my brothers and I sound? That's creepy. Someone knocks on the door and they looked towards the door, as we looked at them.
"You're scared," Elena said. Yea as if you're not.
"Stay here with them and don't make a sound," Rose said as she looked at us and I held my thumbs up at her. Rose walked up the stairs to greet our new guest. Trevor looked at us as he took another deep breath and placed his hands on his hips. Elena was scared, I can tell, and she turned to me.
"I'm scared Alex," Elena said. I nodded then brought her into a hug and rubbed her back.
"It's going to be ok," I said, and she started to calm down a little.
We pulled out of the hug and Elena started pacing back and forth while holding Bonnie's crumpled up note in her hand. When Rose came back with a man in a black and white suit, all eyes turned to him. He walked into the room and looked at Elena as she stood still. He sped over to her to get a closer look, then smelled her neck.
"Human. It's impossible. Hello there." He said and Elena is freaking out right now.
"And that's not weird," I said, and he looked at me. Remind me how I ended up here again? Oh, that's right my brothers.
"And who would you be?" He asked me, and I just smiled.
"Alex," I said.
"Salvatore?" He asked as if he has heard of me and I nodded as I stood up. He looked at Elena then back at me with a smile. "We have a long journey ahead of us. We should be going." He said and we look at Rose.
"Please, don't let him take us," Elena begged her and Rose looked down in guilt. I just took a deep breath and sighed. If I could fight this guy, I would, but I can tell he's a lot stronger than me.
"One last piece of business then we're done." He said and walked over to Trevor.
"I've waited so long for this day, Elijah. I'm truly very sorry." Trevor said and I realized the man in the suit was Elijah. Well, this makes a lot more sense now.
"Oh no, your apologies aren't necessary," Elijah said. Ok, why is he so calm right now?
"Yes, yes it is." Elijah started to circle around the guy. "You trusted me with Katerina...and I failed you," Trevor said. If you shut up now dude, you might make it out alive.
"Third mistake of the day," I whisper to myself.
"Oh yes, you are the guilty ones, and Rose aided you because she was loyal to you and now that I honor...Where was your loyalty?" Elijah asked him.
"I beg your forgiveness," Trevor begged him.
"So granted," Elijah said and I saw Trevor smile a bit. Elijah then smacked Trevor's head clean off his body. We were both shocked, but I saw it coming so I wasn't that affected when it happened. Elena, on the other hand, was terrified, so I tried to comfort her. I placed Elena's head my neck so she didn't look at the body.
"You-!" Rose yelled at Elijah.
"Don't, Rose," I looked over at Rose who was crying and felt horrible for her. "Now that you are free," Elijah said and looked at us. "Come," Elijah said as he held out his hand to us. Elena pulls away from me quickly, so we are standing side by side.
"No, what about the moonstone?" Elena said quickly, trying to buy us time 'till Damon and Stefan get here.
"What do you know about the moonstone?" Elijah asked Elena.
"I know that you need it, a-and I know where it is," Elena said.
"Yes?" Elijah said, and I observed the pair of them, ready to interfere at any time.
"I can help you get it."
"Tell me where it is," Elijah demanded.
"It doesn't work that way," Elena said, and I smiled. Good for you.
"Are you negotiating with me?" Elijah asked her. No, shit Sherlock. Elijah then looked at Rose with curiosity.
"It's the first I've heard of it," Rose said defending herself. Elijah tried to compel Elena but it didn't work. He then looked at her necklace. And this why you drink vervain, kids.
"What is this vervain doing around your neck?" Elijah asked her as he ripped the necklace off her neck and threw it across the room. Elijah then grabs Elena's head and forces her to look him in the eyes so that he can compel her.
"Tell me where the moonstone is," Elijah said.
"In the tomb, underneath the church ruins," Elena answered him.
"What is it doing there?"
"It's with Katherine." The little cunt.
"Interesting," Elijah commented and then looked at me.
"Did you know about this?" Elijah said and I didn't answer him. We heard glass break in another room above us and Elijah looked up. "What is that?" Elijah asked Rose.
"I don't know," Rose said.
"Who else is in this house?" He asked her.
"I don't know," Rose said. Elijah grabs Elena's injured arm, then turns to me and grabs my arm. He forces us to walk over to the stairs. Why does his grip have to be so strong? Then again, he is one of the first vampires in history.
"Move!" He demanded and pushes us both up the stairs. We walk into, what I think, is the entrance of the house. Someone sped behind Elijah and I watched as they sped away. Elijah pushed Elena and me into Rose's arms, roughly.
"Rose," Elijah said.
"I don't know who it is," Rose said.
"Up here." I heard someone say and I looked up the stairs behind me. Elijah goes up the stairs at his super speed, while I smile a little. Stefan. Elena keeps turning around, looking for the voice and I don't know if she's scared or relieved.
"Down here." I heard Damon say and turned around to his voice. I heard something go off and Elijah received at stake in his hand. He removes it with ease as Elena and I were whisked somewhere else. We saw Stefan in front of us and he tells us to be quiet. I'm guessing Damon has Rose and is telling her to be quiet as well.
"Excuse me. To whom it may concern, you're making a great mistake if you think that you can beat me. You can't. Do you hear that?" Elijah said and I heard him break something. "I repeat, you cannot beat me. So I want the girls, on the count of three or heads, will roll. Do we understand each other?" I watched as Elena walks to the stairs and Stefan handed me a crossbow with wooden stakes.
"How long did it take for you to realize we were gone?" I asked him while Elena distracted Elijah.
"Jeremy told me Elena wasn't home, so we did a locator spell on her. But Damon then noticed you didn't come home last night and we did a locator spell for you too when you didn't answer your phone," Stefan said, and I loaded the crossbow.
"Ok, I can see that," I said and looked up to see Elena throw a vervain bomb in Elijah's face and it explodes. His skin burns as he screams but he heals immediately. He walks toward Elena but Stefan and I jump in and we shoot him with the crossbow. It doesn't hurt him so Stefan throws down the weapon, the rushes at Elijah and tackles him.
They fall down the stairs. Elijah gets up immediately but Stefan stays on the floor. He goes toward Stefan as I move towards Elena to help her up. I turned around to go help my little brother, but Damon appears and stakes Elijah with a giant coat hanger. Damon pushes him against the door. Elijah is dead and pinned to the door with the stake in his heart. Rose sees it and fleas. My older brother tries to follow her but Elena stops him.
"Just let her go," Elena says and Damon actually listens. He smiles, seeing both Elena and me safe on the top of the stairs. I see Elena smile too and go down the stairs to Stefan's arms. But I can tell Damon thinks she's running to him.
"Hey come here. Are you hurt? Are you okay?" Stefan asked her and I made my way slowly down the stairs to Damon. Elena embraces Stefan in a hug and looks at Damon over his shoulder. She mouths a "thank you" and Damon's mouths a "you're welcome". I just stand next to my older brother and smile at him.
"Don't I get a hug?" I ask with my arms open to him. Damon laughs and embraces me in a hug as well.
"Of course you do," Damon whispers in my ear and I smile.
~At the Boarding House~
Damon is pouring himself and me a glass of scotch. He hands me my glass and he drinks his glass in one go, then Stefan walks into the room.
"Where's Elena?" Damon asked him, and I looked up at Stefan.
"She's home." Stefan answers and I look at Damon.
"Where else would she be, Damon?" I asked him.
"I don't know, maybe Caroline's or even Bonnie's." Damon sarcastically said as I sat down on the couch.
"Your sarcasm is appreciated." I shot back at him.
"And you're here why?" Damon asked Stefan.
"Because she wanted to be with Jeremy," Stefan answered and sat next to me. I down my drink and set my glass down on the table in front of me. Then I found myself embraced in a hug by Stefan. "And I wanted to be with my sister."
"Feel the love," I said as I lost oxygen.
"Here," Damon said handing Stefan a glass of scotch, which makes Stefan let go of me. Thank you.
"Thanks. Listen, uh, what Rose told Elena about the curse…" Stefan started, and I butted in.
"Hey, I was there too." I pointed out, and he looked at me.
"I know, we'll keep them both safe," Damon said. Stefan stood up and walked closer to Damon. Then I walked over so that I was off to the side but still in between them.
"You know, the only way we're gonna be able to do that is if we're not fighting each other. All three of us because I know you like her Alex, don't deny it." Stefan said, and I held my hands up.
"I never did," I said defending myself.
"We let Katherine come between us. If we let that happen with Elena, we're not gonna be able to protect her." Stefan said.
"Yes Stefan, I heard it all before," Damon said and began to walk away.
"Hey."
"What?" Damon snapped at Stefan, and I took a step back from them.
"I'm sorry."
"About what?" Damon and I asked our little brother.
"For being the guy who made you two turn 145 years ago," Stefan said to us.
"Enough, Stef. It's late. We don't need to rehash that." I told him. I'm not drunk enough to have this conversation.
"You know what? I've never said it out loud. I guess I just need to say it and you two need to hear it. I'm sorry. What I did was selfish. I didn't want to be alone. I guess I just needed my brother," Stefan then looked at me. "And my sister," Stefan admitted. I sighed and placed my hand Stefan's shoulder, then smiled at him.
"Don't worry little brother," Stefan looks into my eyes, probably not sure what I was going to say. "I forgave you a long time ago," I said and walked away leaving my two brothers alone with each other.
I was in the library to get a drink when I heard a noise. It sounded like a vampire was running around me. So I sped over and took the wooden stake out from one of the hidden caches. "Who's there?" I ask the random stranger in my house and Rose appeared from the shadows. "You are not kidnapping me again. Once is enough, thank you."
"I'm not here to kidnap you," Rose told me.
"Why are you here?"
"Trevor was my best friend. For 500 years I have lived with one person and he's gone." She paused for a moment as she walks up to me. "And I don't want to run anymore because I don't have anywhere else to run to." She didn't answer my question.
"Well, I'm sorry, but I can't help you."
"I don't need your help, but I think you need mine," Rose said. "Elijah may be dead, but this isn't over."
"What do you mean "it's not over"? We killed Elijah, it's over. Klaus doesn't know where we are and we're going to keep it that way." I answered.
"It isn't over," Rose stated again. "The originals, they'll come for her...for you." I felt fear run through me. Hello old friend, nice to see you again.
"Why me? What the hell did I ever do to them?" I asked freaking out a bit.
"I don't know why they want you, but I know they have to get both of you for him. " Rose said.
"And who exactly would this him be?"
"Klaus," Rose answered and I huffed.
"Wonderful," I said sarcastically.
