After almost kissing, Sebastian couldn't stop the feeling he had for her. After what happened with Cassandra he never wanted to get close to anyone, he couldn't live with himself if something happened to someone he loved. Cassandra was his great love, and she died right in front of him. He couldn't allow himself to care for Elizabeth even though every cell in his body was telling him otherwise. He just needed her to get out of the coffin.
It has been several days since they had almost kissed. Since then Sebastian has been entering her mind trying to gain her trust. They had agreed to meet by the lake, he was going to tell her about his current state. He really needed that blood to reawaken once again.
Lizzie was getting ready for her date with Sebastian when she noticed the rash forming on her hand. Josie was using dark magic again, she thought to herself. She had to go back to her closet to find something else to wear to hide the rash she had. She settled on a long sleeve blue dress, with a pair of her favorite boots. That was when Josie came into the room.
"There you are, I need your help," Josie said entering their room
"What so you can apologize for this," Lizzie said pulling up her sleeve showing the rash she had
"Are you seriously using black magic, again? Let me remind you that whenever you do, whatever happens to you happens to me too," Lizzie told her sister adjusting the sleeve
"I'm so sorry, it won't happen again," Josie apologized
"Well you're just lucky that Sebastian appreciates the old fashion look," Lizzie said when she heard a man speaking in Japanese. Josie went into the hallways and brought in a samurai looking maa.
"Who the hell is that?" Lizzie asked confused
"Long story, um...short version, he is samurai/demon hunter who lost his oni and the only way to kill it it's with his demon banishing sword before it carries of Landon into Malivore, can you come?" Josie rambled
"Well, I suppose if I reschedule my date it would give this rash sometime to clear up," Lizzie said
"Oh thank you, thank you, thank you," Josie said hugging her sister. Lizzie looked at the samurai as he began to hit his head and point at her.
"He's talking about me, isn't he? He's calling me crazy," Lizzie asked concerned
"No, he's talking about the oni, it possesses people making them act crazy," Josie said clarifying
"Well then, I retract my offer, my mental health is the most precious thing that I have right now. A rash I can deal with, but I cannot risk crazy," Lizzie said as the samurai took out his sword and left the room, Josie ran after him. Lizzie finished getting ready for her date.
Lizzie and Sebastian were sitting on a laid-out blanket by the lake. Lizzie kept asking him questions about who he was and where he came from, but he always seemed to dodge the questions.
"I have enjoyed our time together," Sebastian said
"Same," She responded
"Though I feel we are not as close as we could be," Sebastian said turning to face Lizzie, she looked intrigued by what he had said.
"And I wish for us to be, skin to skin," He said as he reached for Lizzie's hand, but before he could grab it she pulled it away.
"I have but one question to ask," He said as Lizzie nodded
"Do you have access to a moderate to a large supply of human blood?"
"No, I'm not a virgin," They said at the same time, Lizzie was confused at his question, but also embarrassed at what she said. When Sebastian was about to respond, they heard leaves shuffling from behind a tree. They both turned around and saw Mg with a camera in hand.
"I know how this looks," Mg said
"Like you're a freaking stalker. Leave now before Sebastian kicks your ass," Lizzie said getting up and walking towards Mg.
"Lizzie I don't think that's going to be a problem," Mg said coming from behind the tree and walking towards Mg. Lizzie turned back to where she and Sebastian were sitting and saw there was nobody there.
"Fine I'm going to kick your ass," Lizzie said as Mg showed her the camera he was holding
"Get that thing out of my face," She said pushing his hand away.
"Just watch," Mg said showing her the footage on the camera. Lizzie looked down at the camera, Mg had recorded her conversation with Sebastian but when she saw the screen it was just her talking.
"What the hell is this? Sebastian was just right next to me," She asked confused.
"I'm really sorry, but this was the only way to get you to see what everyone else would see. Sebastian is not real," Mg said, Lizzie felt sadness overcome her. She finally thought she was getting better but it was all just a lie, she had just been hallucinating Sebastian.
After seeing the recording of her talking to herself, Lizzie left the lake in tears. She ended up at the Mystic Grill eating an ice cream sundae, she was full of self-loathing. Lizzie had been working on herself all summer and she had finally thought she was actually getting better but she wasn't. Also being possessed by a demon certainly didn't help either. While being possessed by the oni Lizzie realized that she was shattered in too many pieces to be put back together. She didn't even know what was real or not. After the whole demon ordeal, she went back to her room and went to bed crying.
Sebastian had lost his connection to Lizzie's head. And it was all Mg fault. He still had the ability to get into people's heads but not for long, he needed to get blood as soon as possible. After hours of trying he was finally able to enter his head. He wondered the Salvatore school trying to find him. He walked through the halls and bumped into him.
"Sorry I didn't see you there," Mg said to Sebastian
"What did you say to Elizabeth? I am no longer able to reach her," Sebastian said turning to face Mg. Mg turned slowly confused.
"Sebastian?" he asked confused, Sebastian smirked at him.
"But you can't-," Mg began but was cut off by Wade.
"Oh yes, no he can't see me," Sebastian said
"You're not even real," Mg said not wanting to believe Sebastian was real.
"No, I'm very real, and I need your help," Sebastian said looking at him. If Elizabeth wouldn't be able to set him free he had to go to Mg, he just needed out of that damn coffin.
