PHOENIX ROSE
CHAPTER TWO: STUCK IN THE PAST
~THE NEXT DAY-SALVATORE BOARDING SCHOOL-11:25 AM~

Nixie came straight home right after her lunch period like she always does. She plans to go back in time right after school at the boarding school. She rushed past her father's office to go upstairs to her room. But just before that, her father called her.

"Hey uh Phoenix." Damon Salvatore came out of his office.

"Hi daddy." Nixie went up to him.

"How was school?" Damon asked his daughter.

"It was uh good. Nothing different then yesterday." Nixie replied.

"That's uh good." Damon told her.

They just stared at each other in silence.

"So…" They both said in unison.

"I have to get to class." Nixie told her father.

"Right. I'll see you for dinner at the Grill tonight, at seven?" He asked her.

"Sure. Wouldn't miss it." Nixie smiled.

"Great, I'll pick you up around five forty pm so we could head out by six o'clock." Damon told her.

"Ok, sound good." Nixie smiled.


~SALVATORE BOARDING SCHOOL-NIXIE'S BEDROOM-3:30 PM~

Nixie ran straight to her room after the bell rang. She put up a 'DO NOT DISTURB' and 'STUDY ZONE' signs on her bedroom door, just for precaution, before locking her bedroom door. In and out, that's it. She closed all the curtains and turned off all the lights in her room except for her desk light. She grabbed one candle and a little pocket knife from her drawer. She grabbed a three shot family picture of her and her parents from her night stand before grabbing her aunt's grimoire, turning to the page with the spell in it, before sitting on the floor by her bed. She sat everything on the floor.

"Ignis absumet." She concentrated on the candle.

Once the candle was lit, she took out the photo from the frame and put it in front of her. Next she grabbed the little pocket knife and put her wrist over her mother in the photo. She chanted the spell.

"Audi haec verba audire rithimus." She slit her wrist.

(Translation: Hear these words, hear the rhyme)

The blood landed on her mother on the photo.

"Sumat per spem in corde meo." She put the knife down on the grimoire as the blood continued to drop on the photo.

(Translation: Heed the hope within my mind)

"Ut ubi te inveniam sum mitte me." She closed her eyes as she felt the wind.

(Translation: Send me back to where I'll find)

"Velim pro tempore." The wind became violent.

(Translation: What I wish in place and time)

Nixie took a breath before chanting the final part of the spell.

"Caroline Forbes ruina eius MMXIII." She finished.

(Translation: Caroline Forbes Fall of 2013)

Once the wind stopped, she opened her eyes to find herself in a wood. She doesn't recognize the place. She found the book on the floor. She picked it up. She didn't bring a bag to put the book in so she used the shrinking spell to put it in her pocket.

Once she was done doing that, she walked around. The spell was supposed to lead her to her mother. But she is nowhere to be found.

Time passed and she felt like she had walked the wood for hours now.

"Seriously? How big is this wood?" She groaned.

She had to get back home and meet her father for dinner but not before she sees her mother. But on the other hand, if her father finds out what she had done, he will never let her go anywhere for eternity.

She took out her phone to check the time and saw that it is five twenty-five pm. Shit. She has to get back home. Her face saddened as she took out the grimoire and put it back to its original size. She really wanted to see her mother again. This was a big mistake coming here. She flipped through the pages to reverse the time traveling. After a few flips, she found the spell. It's the same spell except the last part.

"Audi haec verba audire rithimus

Sumat per spem in corde meoUt ubi te inveniam sum mitte meVelim pro temporeDe Young quoniam School conscensis Salvatoris Superavit mystica & PRAEDITUSPhoenix Salvatoris

Cadunt in MMXXXI" She chanted before closing her eyes.

(Translation: Hear these words, hear the rhyme

Heed the hope within my mind

Send me back to where I'll find

What I wish in place and time

Mystic Falls Salvatore Boarding School For The Young & Gifted

Phoenix Salvatore

Fall of 2031)

She waited a few minutes for the spell to settle but nothing happened. She opened her eyes and she is still in the woods. She was confused. She did the spell right. At least she thinks she did. She redid the spell except saying to take her back home to her own time she went to the nearest building.

She's in a hallway. People are walking around with books and bags.

"Uh excuse me, where am I?" She asked a brunette girl.

"Whitmore College." She replied.

"College?" She asked.

Where has she heard that name before. Whitmore. Oh right. Her mom and aunt attended classes here.

"Uh, do Caroline Forbes or Bonnie Bennett go here by any chance?" She asked the girl.

"I'm sorry, I don't know."She just shook her head.

"Thanks anyway." She told the girl before she left her alone.

Maybe her aunt Bonnie could help her get back home. But how she is going to do that without exposing who she really is.


~SALVATORE BOARDING SCHOOL-YEAR 2031-5:45 PM~

Damon knocked on his daughter's door to take her out for dinner. It has been tough on both of them after his wife died. He felt like his little girl is distancing away from him ever since her mother's death. He is going to change that.

"Nixie, are you ready to go sweetheart?" Damon asked through the door.

There was no answer. Damon got worried.

"Phoenix?" Damon tried to open the door but it was locked. "Phoenix." He kicked the door open.

Once he went in, he saw that it was a mess. He said the blow out candle on the floor and saw the bloody picture beside it.

"BONNIE!" He yelled as he pulled out his phone. "BONNIE!" He yelled again, holding his phone to his ear.

"What, Damon, what's wrong?" Bonnie asked.

"She's gone. She's not here." Damon told her.

"What?" Bonnie asked as she looked around Phoenix's room.

"It keeps going to voicemail." Damon stressed.

"Maybe she went to meet you at the grill for dinner." Bonnie suggested.

"Really, there is blood on my daughter's bedroom room." Damon told her.

"And a blown out candle. She was probably practicing her magic." Bonnie told him.

Damon sighs as he walks towards the door.

"Where are you going?" Bonnie turns around to face the older raven.

"To the Grill. Maybe you're right. Maybe I'm thinking too much into this. She probably is meeting me at the Grill." Damon walked out.


~MYSTIC GRILL, MYSTIC FALLS,VA-7:05 PM~

Damon finally arrived at the Grill. He immediately ran inside, hoping to see his daughter in there. He looked around the grill and she wasn't there. He even asked a few people if they had seen a teenage blonde headed girl with two different colored eyes. No one had seen her at the Grill. That's when Damon starts to worry and tries calling his daughter again. And just like his other tries, it went to voicemail.

"Hiya it's Nixie, sorry, can't come to the phone right now. Leave a message, I'll call you back...or not. Byeee." The voicemail said.

"DAMN IT!" He yelled as he threw his phone onto the ground.
