Disclaimer: I Don't Own Vampire Diaries
Bonnie didn't know what to do. She spoke with her grandmother but she should have known even after everything her grams still told her to embrace it and try to figure out what Emily was telling her. Bonnie didn't want any more messages from her dead witch ancestor. She didn't want this, so she tried to really put herself into school and really focus on her studies and just for the time being at least forget about all of Emily's nonsense she's throwing her.
The plan seemed to work ok in English but as soon as she went to Math she didn't stand a chance. The teacher was yammering on about some sort of equation of some sort and sleep was not far behind.
Emily was folding blankets with a small half african girl with curly hair helping. Then Damon walked in and said, "How quaint? I didn't know the help had kids."
"You wouldn't. It might shock you to know I have a life of my own."
"Aren't you just full of surprsies. So tell me Emily. Why did you do it?"
She finished folding the sheet and went to the little girl and said, "Thank you you sweety. Put this away and and then you can go off and play."
The little girl smiled and kissed her on the cheek and said, "By Mommy."
"Awe, how adorable." Damon said as he looked at her little girl leave. Then he went back to Emily and said, "So tell me Emily. Why did you do it? Katherine did not tell you to give me the vervain."
"I do have a mind of my own."
"I can see that but that doesn't tell me why you did this?" Damon insisted.
"Did it Vex her?" Emily asked.
"No, it amused her. I suppose it would have vexed her, if I wasn't willing to go along with whatever she wants me to do. Lucky for you. She might have not been very kind to you." Damon said tauntingly.
"I'm her hand maiden, I'm her right hand woman. I know what she is capable of and I'm not afraid of her."
Damon pondered that for a bit and said, "So what do you want Emily?"
"Nothing. I don't already have."
"I doubt that." Damon said smirking.
"Lets just say I gave you a choice. I gave you a chance Damon to choose and free yourself from the doomed life you would have to live. I gave you a chnace to free yourself and your brother."
"Why come to me? Why not Stefan?"
"I never got a chance to be alone with Stefan until it was too late."
Damon's eyes became wide in fear and saddness and asked, "He's a vampire?"
"No, not yet but he will be if he dies. The process has already started and if I had warned him it would not work. Katherine's mind control is too strong."
"And what you think I'll betray Katherine just because I have a choice."
Then Emily looked him straight in his eye and said, "I do not want you to betray Katherine. I just know I needed to give you the choice."
"Why?"
Emily gave him a blank look and said, "Does it bother you, the unknown?"
"It bothers me when I'm being manipulated."
Emily laughed, "You don't like to be manipulated? What do you think Katherine has been doing this whole time? You know what she is. You know what she can do. You know she can bend you to her will. She tried did she not? She would have if I did not interfere. And say you do not like being manipulated. I think you like it."
Damon looked away and said, "Think what ever you want."
"And you." Emily said and then she curtsied and left Damon alone.
Bonnie woke up in math class not pleased. Just when her life starts to simmer down Emily pulls her back in. What was Emily's problem? Why did she insist on throwing her these meaningless visions. Bonnie woke up in math class not to pleased. Just when her life was starting to simmer down Emily pulls her back in to this mess. What was Emily's problem? What was Emily's problem? Why was she insisting on throwing her these meaningless visions about Damon? She didn't understand it.
Then Elena got her attention from her desk a couple seats down and mouthed, "Are you OK?"
Bonnie shook her head and mouthed back, "No."
After class Elena found her and put a hand on her shoulder and said, "What's wrong?"
Bonnie sighed, "Same old, same old. That witchy ancestor of mine, won't leave me alone."
"Emily? Do you think she's trying to possess you again?" Elena asked in hushed tones.
"I don't know, these dreams are different from last time. Those visions were were short vague flashes of her trying to tell me something. This was clear, like your having a dream that feels real. Or like your having a dream like your watching a movie but your the main character but at the same time the main character is someone else but you don't really have any control of what happens."
"Was it of the future?"
"No. The past. Emily's past."
"Oh are you sure it just wasn't a dream?"
"Please my subconsciouse would never dream of Emily and Damon and if Emily wasn't with me."
Then Elena asked a bit creeped out, "Damon? You're dreaming about Damon?"
"Yeah, I don't know why. It wasn't like it was anything big either. Emily just gave Damon some vervain so being a vampire would be his choice."
Elena scoffed and said, "I should have known Damon wasn't compelled and he turned into a vampire because he wanted to. It's not surprsing at all."
"Yeah, I just don't see why she's shoing this to me. I don't care how or why Damon turned into a vampire."
"Maybe, it's a warning of some kind."
"Damon bit me. He always had bad boy written all over him even before I knew what he is. No one needs to tell me he is bad news." Bonnie said in a fierce mood.
"What about your grams?" Elena asked.
"I asked her and of course she told me to embrace it, to learn from it, but I just want it to go away." Bonnie said.
"Bonnie I hate to say it with everything that has happened but it is probally a good idea to pay attention to what happens in these dreams and figure out what Emily is trying to tell you. The last time she sent you messages in your dreams it was important and this time it must liekly is too."
Bonnie rolled her eyes fiercely and said, "The last time she had a message for me, I almost got killed."
Then Elena said, "Bonnie, you know she was just trying to protect you and this whole town, right? If she didn't do what she did this whole town would be over ran by vampires."
Bonnie sighed and said, "I know you're right. I hate it when you're right sometimes."
"Ah, it's a gift." Elena said as she wrapped her arm around Bonnie's shoulder.
Then Elena said, "How aobut you spend the night tonight. We can do distracting girl stuff and no siances."
"I'll pass. I think I'll just stay in tonight."
"Are you sure?" Elana asked worried.
"Yeah, I'll be fine Elana don't worry about me."
"Elena? Do you know what vervain does exactly?" Bonnie asked.
"Yeah, it protects from vampires compelling you and it protects from their bite."
Then Elena said, "Maybe that is what she wanted to tell you. Maybe she wanted to show you how to protect yourself. I should have known. I should have told you about vervain. I'm sorry Bonnie."
"It's ok, Stefan has some maybe he can get some more for you, so you'll be protected from Damon."
"Yeah, thanks."
