Day 18
Anna woke up with a pounding headache. She tried to move, but she was cuffed to the wall. "What the fuck?" She said to herself.
"You're awake." Elijah said. She rolled her eyes and pulled against her restraints, but she was too weak. "You pumped me full of vervain didn't you, you jackass."
"Well you shouldn't have hurt killed people, but you did, so here we are."
"Oh come on Elijah, like you've never killed people just for the fun of it." Anna spat.
"I think you're getting me confused with Niklaus little one."
Anna snorted. "So, what are you going to do, dry me out? Beg me? Send Steve in here with his little puppy dog eyes to plead that I'm the love of his life? You really think that will work?" She asked. She knew all the tricks. It had been Nik who brought her back the second time she had shut it off. Elijah wasn't as good at is as Nik was, and he was gone.
"Fine Elijah, dry me out. I promise I'll last longer than you think I will." Anna told him. "Where are we anyway."
"We're back in New York, you're in the basement of the Avengers Compound." She stopped pacing. She had been all over this compound, why didn't she know this was here? She noticed a viewing room, and in it was Steve, Rhodey and Jules. Fine. If a show was what they wanted, then she would give it to them.
Steve watched as Elijah spoke with Anna. He had explained to him what he would be doing to her. Steve didn't think it was a good idea, but Elijah assured him that it was probably the only way to get her to turn her humanity back on. Steve really didn't care at this point, he just wanted her back.
We let the waters rise
We drifted to survive
I needed you to stay
But I let you drift away
My love, where are you?
My love where are you?
He watched as Anna started pacing again, a sultry look in her eye as she spoke to Elijah. "Don't you miss me Elijah? We used to have so much fun together baby." She glanced at Steve and gave him a wicked smile that made his stomach uneasy. "Don't you remember how I felt under you? Rolling around in your bed for hours? The way I used to scream your na-"
"That's enough!" Elijah screamed at her. Steve turned around, facing the wall, trying to stop the tears that were threatening to fall. This wasn't her. This wasn't his Anna. That's all he had to keep telling himself. It didn't mean it hurt any less.
Whenever you're ready, whenever you're ready
Whenever you're ready, whenever you're ready
Can we, can we surrender?
Can we, can we surrender?
I surrender
"Fine Elijah." He heard her say. He turned back around, and she was standing at the length of her restraints. Her demeanor had changed from sultry to deadly. "Why don't you just go back to New Orleans and mope after your Hybrid. Really Elijah, hiding in the shadows and pining over her while she's engaged to that gorgeous werewolf. I bet he's good in bed." Steve watched as Elijah's jaw clenched shut. Anna turned to them.
No one will win this time
I just want you back
I'm running to your side
Flying my white flag, my white flag
"And you Jules, lets start with you. I forgot to tell you! How silly of me! I met your soulmate." Steve's head snapped to Jules; he didn't know that. "Oh, yeah, good looking guy. James Buchanan Barnes… better known as the Winter Soldier. Oh yeah Jules, your soulmates responsible for dozens of murders, what a dream guy!" Jules had tears streaming down her face, looking at the floor. "But let's not forget the best part!" Anna continued. "He vanished in the snap! Yup. Gone, just like that." She said snapping her fingers. Steve watched as Jules ran from the room. Anna was taking this too far.
My love where are you?
My love where are you?
She turned on Rhodey next. "I really just should have let you die. You not much use to anyone, just another Iron Man really." Her eyes danced over to Steve.
"And finally, Steve Rogers, Mr. Star Spangled man with a plan. You so fucking noble it makes me sick. When are you going to get it through that thick head of yours? Not everyone can be saved. Not everyone wants to be saved. Stop being so good. Let yourself be bad every now and then. Or maybe you can only do that in the bedroom." She smirked. "At least you were a good lay."
Whenever you're ready, whenever you're ready
Whenever you're ready, whenever you're ready
Can we, can we surrender?
Can we, can we surrender?
I surrender
I surrender
Steve looked down and realized he was shaking.
"That's not her Cap, you know that." Rhodey told him.
"It doesn't mean it doesn't hurt."
Elijah was in front of her now. He shoved her into a wall "Oh Elijah, I forgot how rough you liked it." Her head snapped to the side as his fist connected with her jaw. She spit out some blood and looked back at him.
Elijah stared at her, and her eyes widened realizing what he was doing. She felt her blood start to boil. "Elijah, stop it." She warned. She closed her eyes, slumping back against the wall. When was the last time she fed? Three days, two weeks, a month? She shook her head, trying to knock the thoughts. "Elijah." She rasped. She looked down at her hands, they were desiccating. It had been a year. Two years. Five. She dropped to the ground and screamed out in pain. "Elijah!"
Ten years. "Oh God." She said before she saw black.
A/N: Elijah doesnt play. lol
