Damon was struck with realization when his brother had called him and told him of Elena attacking him.

"You can get through to her, talk her down," Stefan hanging up. Damon realized then that Stefan had given up his Elena and opening the door wide for Damon to sweep her off her feet. Damon didn't have to think too hard of where she would be, since she had manage to escape her fate the first two times.

On the Bridge

"Elena," Damon calmly,

"Damon… how did you find me?" Elena asked.

"It wasn't hard, I mean I figured third times a charm," Damon half smiled. Elena looked to the hallucination of Connor,

"Don't let him talk you out of this Elena," Connor persuaded, Damon made a pass to try to grab her, she swiftly moved to the spot to where Damon had been standing.

"Come on Elena, we can go somewhere and talk about this, before you do something stupid," Damon explained. She glanced down at her bare finger,

"What did you do with your ring? Where's your ring Elena?" Damon asked, panicking inside. Elena felt the hallucinations leave and she felt better but now she felt her hand before she heard it start to sizzle,

"Damon," Elena looking to him, hoping he would save her. Damon did the only thing he could think of, he swiftly grabbed her and threw themselves off the bridge, his arms tightly around her. When he hit the water he dragged her down so the sun's rays couldn't touch her and also so he could search for the ring he knew that she had thrown into the water.

When he found the ring he placed it on her finger and jumped out and took her home. Currently she was starting to wake, noticing her hand in the sunlight, she felt her ring in place and turned to sit up to greet Damon.

"Its like it was just all a bad dream," Elena mumbled,

"Just so you know Elena, vampires don't like to swim," Damon coming over to the bed, he immediately took her hand, grateful he had talked her down just in time, and he felt exhilarated that he had saved her on the that bridge, he wished he could have been the one to have saved her that night that Stefan had pulled her from the truck, he would have saved Elena first, Matt didn't matter to him, and then Elena wouldn't be having to go through all this. For the first time Elena didn't pull her hand away or make any excuses that they shouldn't be doing this,

"Elena, you have to know, Stefan keeping his secrets, teaming up with Klaus, its all for you, and when he burns my ass for telling you what I'm about to tell you I want you to scatter my ashes off that bridge. There may be a way out of this for you, there may be a cure," Damon caressing her hand. A few minutes later Elena met Stefan on the porch steps, and started 'the talk'.

"I am grateful for you wanting to help Klaus find this cure, but I am not the girl you fell in love with anymore Stefan and since I have turned I am this different person, I want different things, and my feelings for Damon when I was alive have…" Elena being cut off,

"They have magnified, Elena I cant do this anymore, I knew when I became the ripper I pushed you toward him, that person I had become is at fault for this, but I cant do this any longer," Stefan being serious.

"I know Stefan," Elena mumbled.

A Beginning of a New Strange Day

Stefan woke up in his bed alone, thinking of the last 24 hours. Everything had changed when she had turned, she couldn't accept the animal blood that Stefan was having her feed on, which was making her turn to Damon even more because she needed to feed from the vein, but Stefan couldn't take the chance of her killing someone, it would have destroyed her, causing her to switch off her humanity, despite having Jeremy to protect from all this, but now he had been roped in by being the next vampire hunter. He would have to kill vampires to complete the markings so Klaus would be able to figure out where the cure was, what is was and if it actually existed.

Elena woke up, all she could think about was Katherine's words,

"Stefan will hate you."

Elena's fears had just begun, she wondered if Stefan had told Damon that they had broken up yet and why. She wondered if she should tell Damon her feelings,

"At least you have Damon left," Katherine's words playing in her head.
