I quickly ran down the stairs of my home hearing persistent knocking. After last night I went back home to get a change of clothes since my other ones were stained with my blood.
"I'm coming, I'm coming!" I yelled as the knocks got louder. I opened the front door and I was shocked to see Elena at the front door and Rose's car at the curb with Rose in the driver's seat.
"Elena, something wrong?" I asked confused.
"I want you to come with me to Richmond to talk to Slater." I looked at her with wide eyes and eye brows raised.
"You do realize the last time I was there a coffee shop exploded and I had a three inch long shard of glass stuck in my abdomen? Not to mention Rose was almost turned to ashes." I stated crossing my arms.
"I know but this curse is threatening everyone I care about. I have to find a way to stop it so please." Elena begged. I furrowed my brows as I thought.
"Does Stefan or Damon know you're doing this? And don't lie I'll know it right away." I warned her.
"No, they don't know." She answered truthfully.
"Okay fine I'll go, but if you do one stupid thing then I'm calling it off and I will drag your sorry ass back to Mystic Falls even if you're kicking and screaming." Elena nodded in understanding and I closed and locked my front door and followed her into the car.
We approached Slater's door and Rose knocked on the door, "Slater, its Rose open up!" Rose called out. There wasn't a response.
"He's not home." Rose said turning around.
"Really?" I walked over to the door and with my Werewolf strength I shoved the doors open, "Look at that, it was unlocked." I stated smugly with a smirk and walked into the house. That's when the stench of death hit my nose and I froze on the spot.
"Elena, stay here." I ordered and I followed the scent through the house.
"What is it?" Rose asked walking by my side.
"I just got a whiff of a familiar stench in here." I turned around the corner and sure enough there was Slater on the floor with his skin gray and a wooden stake sticking out of his chest.
"I knew I smelled death." I muttered to myself, "Elena, I don't think Slater is going to be much help!" I called out to her.
I heard Elena's running footsteps and froze seeing Slater's dead body. Rose sighed and walked in front of us and grabbed Slater's body and dragged it away.
"Looks like whoever tried to kill us in the coffee shop found Slater and ended him for his information." I said walking over to a desk with Slater's work on it.
"He was a Vampire Almanac, his own knowledge bit him in the ass." Rose said walking up from behind us and went towards the curtains and opened them, letting the sunlight show through.
"What are you-"
"Tempered glass, UV-rays can't penetrate." I answered for Rose.
"I use to come here and watch the day go by." I heard Rose say looking out the window.
"I'm sorry about Slater." Elena meant sincerely.
"Thanks, any luck?" Rose asked looking towards us.
I turned on the computer and grunted in frustration, "Password protected." I said sighing.
"Then there's no point of us being here we sh-" Something fell and we looked at the direction where it came from.
"Stay here." Rose told Elena quietly.
I flexed my hands and my claws grew out. Rose and I slowly approached the doors and opened them and I saw a woman hiding.
"Alice?" I relaxed seeing that Rose knew this girl and my claws turned back to normal fingernails.
"Rose!" The girl named Alice rushed for Rose and hugged while sobbing, "He's dead!" If I wasn't a Werewolf I would not have heard her say that.
I was in the kitchen with Elena who was pouring hot water into tea cups for the tea.
"How's she doing?" I asked seeing Rose enter the kitchen.
"Overreacting, big time." Rose stated softly.
"Her boyfriend just died." Elena argued.
"She never cared for Slater. She only dated him long enough to see if he'd turn her." That made me scoff.
"Of course, I should start expecting that from every desperate human." Rose nodded her head agreeing with me.
Elena took one of the tea cups and walked over to Alice while Rose and I stayed in the kitchen and listened.
"You look really familiar, did you know Slater?" Alice asked.
"Not personally, he knew some Vampire contacts and I wanted to be pointed towards Klaus." Elena answered, Rose and I exchanged glances then back at Elena and Alice.
"Klaus doesn't get pointed at." Alice scoffed.
"Do you know Slater's password for his computer?" Elena suddenly asked.
"Are you seriously asking me that? I just found my boyfriend with a stake through his heart!" Alice stated giving Elena a look of disbelief.
"Where did Slater find a girl like her anyway?" I whispered to Rose.
"You know about some cults of humans who are wannabe Witches and Vampires?" I nodded my head.
"She was part of the cult for wannabe Vampires and when she found out Slater was a real Vampire…" Rose trailed off and I got the hint.
"She wanted to become a real one, gotcha." I said nodding my head.
"What if I can convince Rose to turn you?" That got both our attentions and we looked at Elena in shock, "Or if you don't want to be a Vampire there's also a Werewolf option. I could convince Allye to turn you. Could I see his files then?" Elena asked, I was signaling Elena with my hands telling her no but she wouldn't budge.
"Follow me." I lifted my hands in the air in a 'flip a table' motion as Elena followed Alice to the computers. I growled under my breath and followed after them with Rose.
"Someone wiped all of his data." Alice stated as she was on the computer.
"Probably by the person who killed him, oh well we tried can we go back now?" I asked crossing my arms.
"Lucky for you, Slater was paranoid. He kept everything on our back up router." Alice said getting onto the other computer.
"You do realize she is getting no where near my blood." Rose whispered to Elena.
"And no way in hell is she getting The Bite." I added whispering harshly.
"I know, but she doesn't." I looked at Elena shocked but yet impressed, Rose and I exchange glances and we both had smirks plastered to our faces.
"Kristen Stewart, god was he obvious." Alice said sighing as she continued to type on the computer.
"That's a lot files on Vampires." I said letting out a whistle seeing the screen.
"Slater was obsessed, a lot like me." Alice noted looking at Slater's e-mails.
"What about that one, Cody Webber? They've exchange dozens of e-mails about Elijah." Rose stated.
"I could call him." Alice suggested.
"Tell him we're trying to send a message to Klaus. The doppelganger is alive and she's ready to surrender." I looked at Elena sharply and glared at her.
"What?" Rose asked harshly.
"Oh my god I knew I recognized you." Alice stated.
"Just give him the message please." Elena stated.
"Come here, now!" I growled out gripping Elena's arm and dragging her to the kitchen, "I told you not to do anything stupid!" I yelled at her as she stayed beside the counter.
"I had to get Klaus' attention." Elena stated.
"Damn it Elena, he'll kill you!" I yelled at her and slammed my fist against the counter and huge crack appeared on the granite.
"That's what you planned all along." Rose stated walking into the kitchen.
"It's better me than my family." Elena stated calmly.
"So this was a kamikaze mission from the start? Do you honestly think by giving yourself up Klaus won't hurt anyone else? I've known people like him Elena and people like him don't stop after what you give them! They'll want more and they'll kill anyone who gets in their way!" I slammed my fist against the granite counter top again. The entire corner broke off and fell on the tile, cracking it in the process.
"I just got off the phone with Cody and he says he really can't wait meet you." Alice said walking in. I angrily ran my hand through my hair and let out an angry sigh.
Alice walked out of the kitchen and so did Elena leaving Rose and me in the kitchen.
"What now?" Rose asked quietly so Elena didn't hear.
"I told her if she did something stupid I'd drag her back to Mystic Falls and that's exactly what I'm going to do." I told her.
"I have something better in mind." Rose said getting out her phone.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
"I'm fixing this." Rose stated and walked out of the kitchen.
"And this is why I prefer working with Werewolves, they actually listen!" I murmured to myself.
I was sitting on the couch tapping my fingers against the arm of the couch. I tried to get Elena to go home but for some reason Rose stopped me saying she handled it. That's when I smelled a familiar scent and my body went tense. Elena noticed this and she turned around and gasped.
"What are you doing here?" Elena asked.
"What are you doing here?" I heard Damon repeat.
"You told him!" Elena snapped at me.
"Don't look at me. I left my cell phone at home after you dragged me down here." I defended myself, standing up from the couch.
"It was me," Rose walked into the living room, "I had no choice."
"Damon Salvatore." Alice stated looking at Damon in 'awe'.
"Get rid of her." Damon told Rose and Rose took Alice away from us.
"We're going now." Damon ordered strictly looking at Elena then me.
"No, I'm staying." Elena argued.
"You don't get to make the decisions anymore." Damon stated harshly.
"When have I ever made a decision? You and Stefan make decisions for me, this is my decision." My body went rigid feeling all the anger and hate in the room.
"Who's going to save you while you're making your decision?" Damon asked.
"You're not understanding me. I don't want to be saved, Damon." Elena fired back, "Not when Klaus will kill every person I love."
"Get your ass out that door before I throw you over my shoulder and carry you out myself." Damon gripped Elena's wrist as he said this. Okay that was far enough.
"Damon enough let her go." I told him, stepping closer to them.
"You don't get to bark around orders, you're just enough to blame as Elena." Damon stated letting go of Elena and walking dangerously close to me. As much as I wanted to hit him for that comment my instincts were telling me I couldn't harm him.
"I was the one that wanted to take her home as soon as she contacted Cody, but Rose had other plans. Now I see what her plan was, she shouldn't have even called you!" I sneered at him.
"I'm glad she did call or else you would have done something stupid!" That tears it, screw my instincts that just pissed me off! I went to punch him but he caught my punch and tighten his hold on my fist. My eyes flashed crimson red as I felt anger run through my veins.
"Don't ever do that again!" Damon threaten getting close to my face.
A growl erupted from my throat and I pulled my fist away from Damon. I punched the sofa and the wooden frame in it snapped it half and caved in the middle. I gripped the couch, my claws piercing through the leather of the couch, and my chest heaving from my anger. Tomorrow was the full moon and I could already feel the effects of it coming close. I tensed feeling someone place their hand on my shoulder. At first I thought it was Damon but when I turned my head it was Elena.
"I'm sorry." She mouthed to me. I felt myself calm down and my heart beat slowly went back to normal. My claws retracted and my eyes turned back to their emerald green color.
"Alice won't remember a thing when she wakes up, now let's go." Damon stated as he walked out of Alice's room. Just then the doors burst open end three Vampires stood there.
"We're here for the doppelganger." One of them stated.
"Thank you for coming." Elena said trying to move forward but I pushed her back.
"I will break your arm." I threaten keeping a vice grip on her arm.
"There's nothing here for you." Damon told the Vampires.
Suddenly the Vampire in the back fell to show Elijah standing behind him. I saw a blur go by me and I looked back to see Rose had fled.
"I killed you, you were dead." Damon stated looking at Elijah in shock.
"For centuries now," Elijah commented, "Who are you?" He asked looking at the Vampires.
"Who are you?" The Vampire demanded.
"I'm Elijah." The two Vampires looked shocked and scared.
"We were getting her for you, for Klaus. She's the doppelganger, I don't know how she exists but she does. Klaus would want her." The Vampire informed Elijah.
"Does anyone else know you're here?" Elijah asked looking between the two Vampires.
"No." The same Vampire answered and shook his head.
"Then you have been very helpful." Elijah suddenly stuck his hands in both Vampires' chests and ripped out their hearts, holding one in each hand.
Elena let out a gasp while Damon and I tensed and got ready for him to come towards us. But Elijah left which left all three of us dumbfounded.
"Thank you for taking me home." Elena said as Damon and I escorted her up to her front porch.
"Well your ride left you. I didn't want to leave you stranded." Damon stated as we got close to her front door.
"Don't blame Rose, she was scared." Elena said sighing.
"She's been running for 500 years." Damon argued.
"And Damon, I know you're mad at me and you should be, but please don't be mad at Allye. She only went because I asked her to, she was just protecting me." I gave Elena a grateful smile and she returned it before heading into her house.
"So you have any idea why Elijah killed those Vampires but let us live?" I asked changing the subject.
"If I had a dollar every time an evil Vampire surprised me." Damon stated looking at me.
"Well thanks for the ride back to Mystic Falls but I think I'll walk home." I went to step off the porch but Damon grabbed my wrist.
"What you did today was incredibly stupid." Damon stated.
"You've already clarified that and if you didn't hear Elena clearly, she said it wasn't my fault. I was there to protect her and that's what I did. So go ahead Damon, tell me how stupid I was for trying to protect my friend." I told him staring at him right in the eyes.
"I meant you going back to Richmond was stupid. You got hurt there, Allye!" I looked at Damon in shock and his expression soften, "When Rose called and told me what happened, I tried calling you and every time it went to voice-mail. I was thinking the worse. I thought something happened to you." I opened my mouth to respond but I was interrupted when the front door flew open and Elena ran out, I looked over at Jeremy who had a bandage on his neck.
"What the hell was that all about?" I asked looking at Jeremy.
"It's Stefan, he's stuck in the tomb with Katherine."
"You've got to be kidding me! Is everybody on a freakin' kamikaze mission today?" I yelled out as both Damon and I ran towards the tomb.
I lunged forward and I felt my body adapt as I started to run on my hands and feet and trees blurred past me as my speed increased. I saw something in the corner of my eye and I smirked inwardly, my Werewolf speed could keep up with Damon's Vampire speed.
"Stefan! Stefan!" I heard Elena cry out and I quickly jumped down the staircase and grabbed Elena before she could enter the tomb.
"No! Allye let me go!" Elena yelled pulling at my arms that were circled around her waist.
"Elena calm down, we'll figure out a way to get him out of there." I could feel her anxiety and it was way too high at the moment.
"Why didn't you stop him?" I heard Elena yelled out and I noticed Damon behind me.
"What are you talking about? I was too busy saving you from your crazy kamikaze mission." Damon argued back. I held Elena back as she started to struggle more against me.
"Damon, you're not helping at the moment." I seethed at him, tightening my grip on Elena.
"You didn't even have to go after the Moonstone in the first place!" Elena yelled at him.
"It was the right call, Elena!" Damon snapped at her.
"The right call? How was any of this the right call? Let go of me! Let go of me!" Elena started to struggle even harder this time but I didn't budge.
"Elena you need to calm down! I'm not letting go until you do, just take deep breaths alright?" I said in a soothing voice.
Being a Werewolf I am an expert when it comes to controlling anger and how to calm down from it. I slowly felt her anger diminish but it was still there but once I thought it was low enough I slowly released her.
"Go home and try to get some rest, we'll figure this out in the morning. We'll get him out of there Elena, okay?" Elena looked at me for a while but slowly nodded and turned around to leave but not before glaring daggers at Damon.
"I'm going to follow her home, make sure she gets there safely." I informed Damon heading towards the staircase.
"Allye, we still need to discuss what happened today." Damon stated making me stop and look back over to him.
"No I don't think we do, you know my reason and I know yours. I get it, you were worried and you had every right to be. But it's in the past now and it's best to let go of it and move on." With that I turned my back towards him and went up the staircase to followed Elena.
Well Allye and Damon had their first fight, but on the other hand they just discovered Elijah is still alive. Now Allye and the group have to try and keep Elena off her suicide path by trying to contact Klaus saying the doppelgangers alive. Stay tune for chapter 10. :D
