Sitting on the bed, and looking down, Bonnie focused on the words at hand "Fes matos tribum nas ex viras, Sqeuias saquines, Ementas asten mihan age petous." She said out loud. Sighing she placed the book down as she ran both hands through the long chocolate tresses "This is silly…I haven't had to recite a full spell in months…" Pushing the book aside, laying on her back against the pillow, and looking up at the ceiling, she smiled. Thoughts filled her mind of Klaus on top of her, the soft moans whispered into her ear, closing her eyes as she thought of the words he asked and she foolishly agreed without thinking of the consequences.
"Bonnie!" her father called from downstairs "Someone is here for you."
Sitting up she walked towards her door, and down the stairs to see Kol standing on the porch "Oh, Hey." She smiled while walking towards the door.
"Hey, sorry it took so long…" Kol said looking over her shoulder to see her father with his arms crossed over his chest.
As if taking the hint, Bonnie glanced behind her shoulder "Sorry Dad, this is Kol, Kol this is my Dad, Rudy."
"Kol, funny name…" he said with his arms still crossed against his chest.
"I could say the same thing about Rudy…" Kol whispered inaudible "It's a name that has been passed down from generations, sir." He said taking a step closer towards the door.
"I see…" Rudy said before looking at Bonnie "You have class tomorrow, so make this quick." He said before turning around and walking into the kitchen.
Feeling her cheeks flush while nodding to her father, and then looking back at Kol who held a humorous expression, she was mortified. "Sorry about that…" she said covering her face slightly as she shook her head.
"He's quite the character, isn't it?" Kol laughed softly.
"Yeah…" she laughed nervously "So, should we do this?" Stepping back she held her hand towards the stairs.
As if a switch had been turned Kol nodded "Of course, if you would please…" he said waiting for her to invite him inside.
Swallowing the lump in her throat, if she were to invite him inside what would stop him from not entering whenever he felt like it? Shaking the fear, he wanted to find Klaus just as much as she did.
"Please, would you come inside?" she said stepping back once more.
Smiling he nodded "Thank you, Bonnie." Walking into the house he inhaled, it was warm, and welcoming unlike his humbled abode.
Bonnie watched as he looked around the house, just as Klaus had. Perhaps where they lived was a damp dungeon like place, but that couldn't be right.
"Where you would like to do this?" he asked breaking her from the thoughts.
Pointing towards the upper part of the house she began to walk up the stairs "My room would probably work best…" she said without thinking too much into it.
"Your room, hmm?" Kol followed behind "I do hope I'm not the only one who has gotten such the privilege to see your bedroom."
"Of course not…Now hurry up before my father catches us." She said ushering him into her room and closing the door.
Again he seemed lost; he focused from one part of the room, to the other as if making mental notes of everything.
Ignoring his lingering stares at her room, she walked over to the bed where the book and ingredients lay besides the one crucial substance. Turning her back to him she began to turn the page "Okay, so I have everything" she began to say as her finger pressed against the book.
"Expect the blood." Kol said standing next to the bed, causing her to jump slightly.
"Right and you said you have it?" Bonnie said looking up at him expecting him to pull out a vial of old blood instead he pulled out a small switchblade.
Stepping back, Bonnie watched in horror "Ugh, what are you going to do with that?" she said pointing at the blade.
Smiling he began to roll up his sleeve "You said you needed blood of his relative, and I am just that…"
Shaking her head in disbelief she took a step back until she finally hit her desk causing her to sit down in the chair "I didn't think you would just cut yourself! I was thinking more along the lines of a contained source."
Tilting his head in confusion he began to shake his head "You didn't really believe we would just keep a source of blood in some sort of sacred vial that we carried around our necks, did you?"
"Well kind of…" Bonnie said standing back up.
Laughing softly by her innocent response, he said "Now, you can look away as I cut into my arm, or you can watch and hold the bowl."
Swallowing the massive lump in her throat she began to step towards him "This is to find Klaus…" she said more to herself instead of Kol.
Nodding, he raised the blade delicately pressing it against his arm, and in one swift motion caused the crimson blood to drip down his arm, and into the bowl. "Tell me when we have enough." He said squeezing his arm to cause more to flow out.
Bonnie watched as the bowl began to fill until she held her hand out "That's enough…There's a towel hanging on the back of my door, please feel free to use it."
Clasping onto his arm to stop the blood from spilling onto the floor he walked over to the door, grabbing the bright pink towel that hung in place "Are you sure that will be enough?" he asked wrapping the towel around his arm.
"I'm sure it will be…" Bonnie said lying. This was the first time she had to create this spell, and with the limited instructions on the how to, she was left guessing the amount. Placing the bowl onto her desk, she walked over to the candles that lay on top of her bed. Picking up both she placed them on the floor and lit one after another.
"I forgot how wonderful witches could be…" Kol commented as he watched her light the candles without a match.
"I have to concentrate…" Bonnie snapped as she stood to pick up the map and place it in between the two lit candles.
"You'll have to excuse me, it's been a while…" Kol said handing the bowl to her before crouching in front of her.
"Thanks…" Smiling apologetically she placed the bowl beside her as she looked over the book to get the wording right.
"So, what's next?" he asked looking at the book, and back to her.
"Well, the next part I read the incantation…" she said hesitantly, thoughts of getting the wording wrong flew through her mind.
"Okay, I will remain quiet so you may concentrate." He smiled, while sitting on his butt with his hands intertwined together.
Inhaling deeply, she picked up the bowl, and began "Fes matos tribum nas ex viras, Sequitas saguines, Ementas asten mihan ega petous. " Tipping the bowl sideways so the blood would drip she closed her eyes and focused.
Ever so quietly she continued to mumble the words to the spell, her eyes remaining closed until the sound of Kol's movement and his whispered "It's working…It's moving…"
Opening her eyes she watched as the blood ever so slightly moved towards the wooded area of the town "He's in the woods?" Bonnie said knitting her brows in confusion.
"Strange, what would he be doing in the woods?" Kol began to stand his wound clearly healed as the towel still lay on the floor.
"There's only one way to find out." Bonnie copied his motions as she stood next to him "I'll drive." She said taking her keys from the dresser and began to walk down the stairs leaving Kol standing in her room confused.
"Wait, Bonnie…" he said once realizing that she was already taking the stairs to leave "What if this is some kind of trap, conjured by the Salvatore's?"
Once hitting the final step she looked back to see Kol standing at the top of the stairs "Then I guess it's a trap, but they have one thing missing…" she said as a smirk appeared.
Taking two steps at a time he looked at her puzzled "And that would be?"
Smiling she turned around towards the door "A witch to save their ass." She said taking a step out of the door and walked towards her car, leaving Kol once again speechless.
"""
This wasn't the first time she had visited the forested area, if anything this was her twentieth time she had been greeted by the lush blackened forest.
"You wouldn't happen to have a flashlight would you?" Bonnie said completely forgetting hers.
As they parked into the small quaint spot he began to shake his head "No, honestly I didn't see ourselves ending up at the forest of all places."
Biting her bottom lip as she thought of what to use as a light she remember her cellphone had a flashlight app, smiling at her genius idea she looked over at Kol "You have a cellphone, right?"
As if realizing it on his own he smiled "Why yes I do. Aren't you a smart, I can see why Klaus adores you."
Unable to hold the coy smile she opened the door, and began to walk towards the woods with her phone in hand. It gave little light, but it was enough to see what stood in front of her. Kol close behind followed her as she travelled through the lush forest. Feeling oddly confident Bonnie continued to take step after step before stopping and looking over her shoulder "He could be anywhere…" she whispered.
"Yes, but I can at least look in mere minutes to see where exactly he is." He said walking past her as he looked back and forth.
"So, what's stopping you? I should be fine, and if you find him please come back." Bonnie smiled weakly, as she looked around her. It was dark, the tree's stood way too tall and yet here she was asking him to leave her to find Klaus.
"I will come back, just stay here." He said with a nod, and then disappeared.
Bonnie stood shifting from one foot to the other as she uneasily waited. What if someone was out here as well or a hunter? Feeling the fear start to consume, she turned the flashlight off, and quickly dialed Caroline.
"Well Hey Bon. Shouldn't you be studying?" Caroline laughed.
"You'd think so, but no." laughing as well, her fear soon was diminishing.
"So, what's up? Do you have any word on Klaus?" She asked getting right to the point.
Taking only a few more steps until she made out a small tree stump she sat down "No, not yet. I may have a lead but nothing concrete."
"Well keep up your Nancy Drew activities; I'm sure you'll find him in no time." Caroline said, but then paused as if she had another question to ask.
As if feeling the tension coming from Caroline, Bonnie sighed "Just ask it, Caroline."
Another pause came through until Caroline sighed "Jeremy came to see me today. Bon, he's really beat up about the break up."
Running a hand through her hair Bonnie began to shake her head "Yeah, I ran into him as well. He was so different from the last time I saw him…It was as if…" she paused. They wouldn't do that to Elena's brother, would they?
"As if what?" Caroline asked trying to get more information.
"Nothing, look I have to go. Something just came up." She said as Kol reappeared. Hitting the end button, Bonnie stood up and walked towards Kol "So? Did you find him?" looking over his grim expression, she knew the answer wouldn't be pretty.
"I did…" running a hand through his disheveled hair.
"Okay, so show me where he is." Bonnie said walking towards him.
"He's not far from here, but I should warn you…It's not pretty…" Kol slowly spoke as he began to walk forward as Bonnie followed into the line of trees.
It seemed like ten minutes had passed as they walked throughout the trees until a clearing opened. Looking from one end to the other, Bonnie could only see darkness. "Is he here?" squinting her eyes in hopes that would help make out any movement.
"He's over there…" poitning across from them lay Klaus slummed against a tree, almost unoticable if he hadn't pointed it out.
Following his finger, Bonnie's eyes widened and her heart sunk into her stomach "Klaus?" she screamed before running towards the figure.
"Klaus! What the hell happened to him?" finally reaching him, she sat next to him as she watched as his eyes fluttered open and closed. Right behind her Kol stood looking down at his lifeless brother "We need to get him out of here."
Nodding, she grasped onto his arm, wrapping it around her shoulder as Kol did the same.
"On the count of three." He said draping the limp arm around his shoulder, never dropping his gaze towards Bonnie.
"One…two….three." both stood causing Klaus to stand with his body and head bent forward. Without looking at the battered Klaus between them, they began their walk back to the car. What seemed like a long distance to get to him turned to be short, and before they knew it they were back at Bonnie's car.
Klaus mumbled slightly as they reached the lit parking lot towards the car "I'm taking him back to my house." She said without thinking.
"Bonnie, I don't think that is such a great idea." he grunted once Klaus shifted his weight onto Kol.
Reaching the car, Bonnie maneuvered herself out of Klaus grasp to unlock the door. Looking at Kol who held his brother close, she knew he should be with Kol instead of herself, but, she needed to be by his side "He's coming home with me." her voice grew dark as she looked at Kol.
Opening the door, Kol delicately placed Klaus into the backseat. Making sure he sat comfortably before closing the door he sighed before running a hand through his hair "Obviously there is no sense in fighting with you. But please remember he will require substance once he awakens."
Sitting in the driver's side, Bonnie glanced to the backseat "I know, and I will help him." She said looking at Kol who sat perfectly still in the passenger side.
"Thank you…" he managed to say a little hesitant at first, as if it were the first time he had ever thanked someone.
As if knowing his thought she smiled as they drove out of the park and onto the street. Driving faster than usual they reached her house in record time. Opening the door to her house, as Kol maneuvered Klaus out of the backseat, they both quietly walked up the stairs to her bedroom.
"Thank you again, Bonnie." He said as they lay him against the bed.
Looking at Kol before focusing back towards Klaus "You're welcome, if anything happens I'll be sure to call you." She said in hopes that would calm his nerves.
Nodding he gave one final look at Klaus before walking towards the door "that would be wonderful, and if he…" his eyes shifted towards her neck "please fight him off, you have no idea how hungry he may be."
Swallowing hard as he left with those words, she began to panic. That thought never registered through her mind. If anything he would maybe be hungry and she would offer only the slightest bit, not the whole cow in a sense. Shaking the thoughts, she trusted him at this moment and that's what would keep her thoughts from darkening.
Quickly closing the door and locking it, she walked towards her dresser where she dressed into shorts, and a tee shirt. Looking at the bed where Klaus lay it brought her to attention, it had been months sense she had someone of the opposite sex sleep next to her. Shaking her head she pulled the covers back and slowly crept into the open spot. Making sure she made no sudden movement she laid on her side, while going over the open wounds that now began to heal.
"What happened to you, Klaus?" she asked as her fingers began to trace against his bruised skin.
