The younger brother walked up next to his older brother, he was curious because he knew that Damon was trying to strike a nerve with him. He was slightly disturbed with what his brother just said because if it was true then something was up or was it suppose to go down that path eventually, eternity is a long time "Damon it wasn't funny the first time and it's not the second time"

Damon pointed to Elena's neck "No Stefan, Look"

Elena rolled her eyes and became bored so she was sadly listening to there conversation

Stefan did what his brother told him to and he noticed the two marks, it was an understatement to say that he was shocked to see the marks "Elena what have you been doing?"

"Nothing" she answered innocently and the fact that the brothers have been blind about the way she was acting had confused her. Then she processed what they said, she still had the marks that should have been long gone but they weren't and the common word that was popping up in her mind was Why?

"these marks Elena, there from a vampire and the fact that they haven't healed yet tells me everything"

She raised an eyebrow and smirked "Really?" she dragged out the word for a bit

He nodded and looked her dead in the eyes "Yes it does, it means it was an original that caused the marks." He waited for a response and didn't get one, so he continued. "I got a nice set back in the twenties from Rebekah, it takes longer for them to heal because of who the marks are caused by and depending on the emotional state, it can take a long time to heal and there was something else to it." He shook the rest of the thought away because he couldn't remember it "The fact is he drank from you Elena, and he meant it"

Ok so they were putting it together slowly but her thought were going off in one direction he meant it. Did that mean that his emotions truly weren't off… oh well she would figure that out later. At the moment she wanted to see how far she could take the innocent act. "I think I would remember Elijah biting and feeding from me"

"He could have compelled you"

She immediately perked up and lied "Vervain, I've been on vervain, taking daily doses" she knew it was a lie, she had already been compelled once that day and quite frankly she was fine with it. The truth was she and the Salvatores had stopped taking Vervain the day Klaus had left town for New Orleans and plus, if she had really been taking it there would have been the fact that her emotions would still be on.

After letting Stefan have a try at her Damon decided to take matters into his own hands and started to inch closer to her. He was truly frustrated with her but went along with her game, he had picked up on it but he didn't know it was going to end soon. "Fine Elena, so there's no original around, then how do you explain those marks?"

She shrugged, rolled her eyes and tried to walk away only to be stopped by Stefan's arm. She looked down at it and told him "Are you sure you want to do that?"

Damon walked towards he again and this time almost pleading "What is wrong with you?"

She knew what she was going to say and she wanted to see those faces once they heard what she was going to say "I'm in an emotional state of distress, you two are questioning me and I'm trying to figure out where Elijah went." She saw two blank stares. Oh this is to good. "He followed me in and then ditched me, that's just rude." And as a joke she yelled through the air "You better not be searching through my drawers…or looking through my Diary" she looked at the two brothers and smirked, this was too good. "Didn't I mention that he was here… or he at least was." She started to look around. "oh well he's some where" she stopped at the stairs and sat down on them some where in the middle. She crossed her arms and found that the brothers followed her and there was a glare from Damon and Stefan was concerned, she could tell, there was part of her that was disappointed in her self but that was pushed far down because her emotions were shut off she wasn't suppose to feel anything remotely like that. But if the originals emotions weren't truly off either would that mean when he tried to shut hers off that it wouldn't have completely worked?

They both just stood there, they didn't quite know what to say and they had other things to worry about if there was an original snooping round their home or watching them. "Where's your buddy Elena?" Damon figured it was worth a try, Maybe she would tell them at least something useful

"were you not listening Damon, I lost track of him." She then smirked, she had been doing a lot of that lately but when she thought about it she was having fun. "And he might have a make shift stake"

And right on cue Elijah walked out from a dark corner, holding the coat rack stake. Elena immediately noticed that there was an end now broken off. Damon's eye immediately went to the stake "So what, are you going to kabob us to death"

Elijah was standing in front of the two and he placed a hand on Damon's shoulder and tossed him back. "Kabob, yes. Kill you" he sounded like he was thinking it over "Not yet"

Damon stumbled back. "You here that Elena, your favorite original is going to kill us"

Elijah glanced towards Elena and mockingly said "I'm your favorite, oh I'm touched" and his attention went back to the brother, where Stefan had flashed to Damon to see if he was all right.

"Elena aren't you going to do anything?" as much as Damon hated to admit it, Elena would probably be the only being that could talk Elijah out of anything and right now the look in Elijah's eyes scared him, Damon wouldn't show fear but he was afraid of this original at the moment.

She was still sitting on the stair case "Nope"

Stefan looked at his brother and said to him "She's not her self, she's gone"

Damon just glared at his younger brother taking his attention away from Elijah who was moving closer to them. "You think!?"

The two brothers were not quite sure what happened next, they had lost there focus on Elijah for a whole second and Damon found himself with the coat rack through his stomach and, he and the coat rack were pinned to the wall. His neck was soon snapped after. "What should I do with you Stefan? Are you still on animal blood or have you finally controlled that inner demon where human blood will not do anything to you?"

Stefan was looking around frantically, he looked up to Elena who was just watching, a smile was prominent and it seemed like she was amused. This wasn't the Elena he knew. Neither of the brothers seemed to pick up on the fact that something was off, that she was enjoying this little game. They'd seen her like this once but she was more cruel and closed off. There was something off with her; he now saw it or at least part of the picture. Stefan snarkly replied with "Your inner demon seems to be out and you're losing control."

The next second there was a hand around his throat and he was slide into the stake with a searing pain. The was a look in his eyes, like there was no regret "And I love it" then Stefan's neck was snapped. Elijah looked at his handy work. Blood was pouring out of both of them. A large stick through both of their stomachs and there heads at a strange angle "A Salvatore kabob"

Elena had gotten up from the stairs and walked up to the only other living… unliving… undead being in the house. She placed a hand on her shoulder "I liked that rug" she then looked closely at the brothers "Wasn't it only Damon who staked you"

He shrugged "Yes but Damon mentioned Kabob."

A few things in Elena's mind click. She had caught on when they first entered the house that Elijah wanted to do the same thing that Damon had done four years ago to him, give or take a year or so. She remember the image she saw after Damon originally staked Elijah, it ruined a nice suit and he was ash grey. "Your not satisfied are you?"

"Not one bit " he said walking towards the door "But I know what will"

She didn't care what he was about to do next she just followed, it was interesting seeing him like this. "Where to next?"

"I'm thinking to see a witch, sorry ex witch" he held out his arm to her and she took it "But maybe we should make a quick stop"

Bulldoze88- so much fun writing the cheeky side, and they really don't care because of their supposed emotionless state. Thank you for reviewing!

Aria Daughter of Chaos – so I am planning to have Rebekah in this, that a definite and possibly Klaus, I'm still debating on that, but it depends which reason I want to use for Elijah shutting off his emotions. Thanks!

So I have a question for you guys, how many year have passes on the show since the beginning, this was going to be bit in the future anyways but it popped in my mind and if I recall right there was never a year given to begin with. It would be great if someone can tell me because it seems to only really be three years but I could be completely off

Alright, thank you guys for reading, let me know what you think and if some one could answer my question that would be awesome.

p.s. any mistakes are of my own
