"The house is not safe anymore." Estella started packing clothes into random duffle bags while Lucy tried to calm her down and stop her rampage. "Not-ah! I'm not going to sleep somewhere she can find me!" Damon jumped forward, holding a duffle bag out of her reach.

"Stella, let us deal with Katherine, you and Luc stay here and...hold fort."

Lucy glanced back at Stefan, who sighed and gestured back to the kitchen. "I made breakfast, does anyone want it?"

Estella froze for a moment -as if she were deciding whether to go or not. "No, I need to leave now!" She grabbed the duffel bag and ran and Damon bolted after her.

"Stella! You forgot your laptop!"

"Did not! I would never!" Estella shouted and a door slam followed.

Stefan rolled his eyes. "She's just being dramatic, right?"

"No..." Lucy stared at the door. "She's dead serious...I've gotta go with her."

"What?"

"She's my sister, Stefan. My older sister and though she may think she knows best she...well, she makes sense sometimes. And she needs me."

"She just fell down the fire escape!" shouted Damon from the living room.

Lucy laughed humorously. "See what I mean?"

"She just took my car!" Damon paused. "No wait that's Stefan's car..."

"Anyway I know where she's going and I'm not leaving her out alone where she could chase your car or get married to someone in Vegas-"

"She better not!" Damon yelled.

"...or, at the worst, kill someone." Lucy ran her fingers through her hair. "God, I need to pack."

"She already packed for you..." Stefan pointed shyly over to a garbage bag full of Lucy's belongs.

"How generous of her..."

~X~X~X~

Daniel's Motel had to be the one of the best motel in town: room service, in room movies, maids and other workers willing to jump through the ringer to please their guests well that didn't have to worry too much about Estella -after parking Stefan's car a mile away and faking a French accent all she wanted was to be alone with her in room movies and complementary bathrobe.

"...this place is awesome Damon, I think I might work some magic and get some free wine or something."

"That's my girl. Are you alright now?"

"Yes, I'm a lot better, you can pick up Stefan's car in the alley behind the Marithon Gas Station. So how's everything with Katherine?"

"Um, she's...not here."

"What?"

"She's gone. We can't find her anywhere."

Knock. Knock. Knock.

Estella froze. "Hey, Damon...?"

"Hmm?"

"How fast can you get here?"

"I'm on the other side of town right now, why?"

"Well, then if I don't call you back I just wanted to let you know I love you." Estella tapped the End Call button and tossed her cell phone on to the coach. "Who is it?" she called.

No answer.

"Hello?" Estella slowly crept towards the door. Then she noticed the door knob slowly turn, and then suddenly stopped, followed by a loud thud.

"Oh shit." She heard a voice mutter.

Estella opened the door to find Lucy on the floor, covered in the groceries she had just bought for the stay. Damon was standing guilty behind her.

"Lucy!" She yelled.

"They look scary alike from the back..." Damon said.

"Damon!"

"I'm sorry!" Damon defended.

"Get her inside and I will call Stef-" Before Estella could finish, Stefan walked around the corner from the end of the hall.

"Lucy!" He yelled. "What happen!" He quickly ran to Lucy's aid.

"Oh just a silly misundestanding." Damon brushed off.

Estella rolled her eyes, "Damon yacked her in the back of the head."

Stefan gave Damon the death glare.

"As I said, silly misunderstanding." He chuckled.

"Silly? You knocked out my girlfriend!"

"Can we not fight? And call me crazy, but I think we should do something!" Estella yelled.

Stefan carried Lucy inside, and set her in the bed. While Damon picked up the groceries strewned all over the floor.

~X~X~X~

"How much longer till she wakes up?" Estella asked.

She was pacing back and forth in front of the queen size bed, where her sister lay.

Stefan and Damon were rumeging around the room, to make sure it was safe.

"Any time now." Damon declared. "Sorry...again."

Estella exhausted back against the coach. "And to make things worse I'm hungry now...Lucy usually cooks for me."

"Take out?" Damon offered.

"No..."

"Room Service then?"

"Yes...get me the lobster." Lucy shifted on the bed. "And some steak for Lucy."

"You gonna pay for all that?" asked Stefan.

"I stole someone's credit card on my way in." Estella curled further onto the couch. "And ask for some sleeping meds or whatever they can give me."

Damon used the phone and called down to the kitchen.

"Owww." A voice whispered.

Everyone turned to find Lucy squirming around on the bed, holding her head.

"Luc?" Estella whispered.

Lucy opened her eyes slightly, "What happen?"

"Umm...you hit your head...off of...Damon's fist..." Estella confessed.

Lucy turned to Damon, who just got off the phone, "Thanks." She said sarcasticaly.

Damon smiled a little nervously, "Yeah..."

Stefan went to sit at the edge of the bed, "Are you okay?" He grabbed her hand.

"Yeah, I'll be fine I think. I just need to walk it off." Lucy stood up with the help of Estella, when suddenly Lucy's face went blank.

"Lucy, what do you see?" Damon asked taking a step closer.

"She's..." She stopped for moment, and took a deep breath. "Close."

"How close?" Stefan stood up.

"She just destroyed you car, Stefan." Lucy quickly shook off her daze, "We need to go, now!"

That's all it took, and Lucy was back to normal. As if Damon didn't even lay a hand on her. She was running quickly to her back to retreive her stuff. Luckily she didn't even unpack. Estella did the same, only she did unpack a few things. So she had to grab it quick.

Instantly there was a knock on the door.

"Room service." A voice yelled.

Stefan and Damon's eyes got bigger, "Go hide." Damon whispered, "Now!"

Before they had the chance, the door was knocked down.

Katherine.

In a wedding dress.

"Here comes the bride!" She screamed. "Why aren't the grooms dressed?"

"Katherine stop it, your insane!" Stefan said through his clenched teeth.

Katherine took one look at the two girls, "Cheating are we? That's not proper behavior!" She instantly launched herself at Lucy. Estella quickly jumped in front of her sister and made a slashing motion with her left hand, fire sparked at her finger tips and launched at Katherine who took the attack head on and knocked Estella aside. Lucy stared wide eyed as the vampiress still came at her.

She whispered a defensive spell to herself and Katherine was forcefully pushed back, slamming against the opposite wall.

Katherine snarled, lips curling over her canies and she leaped at them again, this time Stefan stopped her. "Katherine! Leave her alone!"

"No Stefan, you are mine!" Katherine shreiked. "She's gettin in the way of us! That stupid little witch, she casted a spell on you Stefan!" Katherine turned frantically back to him. "Trust me! She did this to you! Both of you!"

"No." Damon snarled.

Stefan let go of her so Damon would charge. But just before Damon hit her she flew at Estella knocking her down, biting her on the neck.

"Ahhhhh!" Estella screamed, Lucy tried to run to her aid but Katherine was too quick. She grabbed Lucy by her hair and threw her towards the wall. Stefan tried to pervent it while Damon ran to Estella. But Katherine was to quick, she grabbed Lucy again and ran out of the room.

Lucy was captured.

"Help!" Estella screeched.
