Elena's POV
Stefan's off the rails again. This time, I couldn't care less. To be honest, I went along with him. We treated human's like blood bags. We went after them, one after another. All the lessons I taught Damon, about innocent lives, and how wrong it is, was all down the drain. Again, I couldn't care less. My humanity's off. It was just a constant reminder of the mistakes I made, including leaving Damon behind. After what happened, we never heard from Klaus. Normally Klaus would've called, traded Damon's life for some leverage. This time he didn't. Day by day, the odds of Damon still being alive were getting smaller…
Footsteps broke my chain of thoughts. They echoed the hallways of the Salvatore house. I focused my attention to the heartbeat. Thump. Thump. Thump. I listened to it intensely. Hmm. Just about my favorite sound in the world. It was just like the song that could be played again and again. I could never get sick of it. I focused my senses. It wasn't Stefan. It was human. I smiled to myself. It's been I while since a human walked in this house. I couldn't help but think. Poor human, walking right into the slaughterhouse – wait, no! My humanity is off! I walked over to the door, and hid behind it. Ready to greet my prey with my fangs.
I wanted for the perfect timing, and I lurched forward. As I was about to sink my fangs into the humans neck, i felt a sudden but strong pain in my brain– oh god! What is that? My head. It feels like its about to burst! What the hell?! With all I might I looked up. My sight was blurry, I squinted as if I was looking into the sun. I could make out a blurry figure, it had black hair and - "Bonnie?"
"Lesson one Elena, never try to bite a witch." Oh great. It really is Bonnie. "You can't just go around biting everyone. They're innocent people." Yeah Yeah Yeah. Just shut up. Your ruining my day. I thought of saying that, but i was afraid of feeling my brain explode again. I can't help but wonder if this was what Damon felt every time I tried to give that lesson. With me being like that all the time, how did he ever fall in love with me?
Shut up already! I mean, seriously? I rolled my eyes. Finally, i couldn't take it anymore. I spoke up "That's great Bonnie, just great. You want to give more lectures? Become a teacher. But remember, I'm not enrolled in your class."
"You know what Elena. Maybe you are hopeless, you sound just like Damon!"
I felt my heart break hearing his name. Damon. I imagined him tortured by Klaus. I recall those sweet blue eyes, and the way he plead for me to leave. I closed my eyes, as they became watery. I don't what my vampire life to be haunted with this mistake. The mistake of leaving, when I should've stayed.
A gust of wind made me open my eyes. I looked up and saw Bonnie leave and begin to slam the door. I used my vampire speed to catch up, and grab the door before it closed. "Wait, Bonnie. Last week, when you said the spell didn't work, what did you mean?"
Bonnie took a breath and began to talk. Her voice turned shaky. "I don't know, i really don't. Ever since i switched Klaus's body with Tyler's my magic just felt weak. It feels like its slipping away. I know its crazy" She lowered her voice and said, "i think I made the spirits angry."
I felt sympathy slowly coming back to me. "I'm sorry Bonnie. I really am. But Klaus doesn't know that. He'll still want Damon for leverage and -"
"Elena," Bonnie said, in a voice that was barely a whisper. She took a deep breath and continued, "that's not the worst part. When I called Klaus, he said I'm useless. He doesn't need me to do anything anymore."
Suddenly, I no longer was the girl with no care in the world. I felt my eye filled with tears, and as invincible vampires were, i felt my knees grow weak. I felt pain, as if my heart got ripped out from me. The same way my last shred of hope just disappeared.
Klaus's POV
I paced back and forth. I was pissed. I had plans, bigger plans then just regaining control of my hybrids.
I glanced over to the guy conscious on the floor. Weak. Recovering from a broken neck. Damon Salvatore. Anger overcame me. I felt like i was surrounded by clouds of burning red flames. I glared at Damon, and thrashed a stake into his stomach. I laughed as he yelled out in pain. I repeated staked him again and again. He had stab wounds all over his body, everywhere but his heart. Blood was oozing out of the wounds.
"What the hell!" A high pitch voice stopped me from attempting to kill Damon with the most pain possible. I glance towards the door. It was Caroline. Caroline. My heart immediately started racing. Wow. You look great. Is that a new jacket? I stopped my thoughts before they accidentally fell out of my mouth. Like always, i swallowed the complements. Instead I opened my mouth and said, "What do you want? I'm a little busy here love."
Caroline rolled her eyes. "I want to know why you took Damon!" I didn't respond. As gorgeous as she was, i couldn't risk anyone knowing what I needed. Annoyed by my silence, she raised her voice and said, "Also, why i chose to use my boyfriend body out of all the hybrids you could've chosen! And don't try to lie, because Bonnie told me everything."
"I doubt it." I chuckled. "Did your little friend tell you she no longer had the ability to practice magic?"
"What?" Her face immediately turned from being completely confident to confused.
"Yeah. You have no idea how much i want to return to my body. I mean, this" I gestured from head to toe "is nothing but a piece of -"
"Hey! Watch it! That's my boyfriend your talking about."
I chuckled again. "Well you should get a new one, because - " With that, my face got greeted by her palm. "Ouch" I said, although i felt no pain at all.
"Ugh. Your despicable." Caroline said with her face filled with rage. With that, she stomped out of the cage.
"Thats rough." Damon said, clearly enjoying what he just saw. "Getting slapped by the girl you like."
"Yeah, but not as rough as getting left behind by every girl you ever loved." He face immediately reflected pain. I knew his mind was wrapped around Elena know. But I reflected back on the list of women that left him. For a 100-year-old it, I'll admit, it wasn't a long list. Merely three women, including one I recently found out about. I chuckled again. It's funny how people think they can hide things from me, but that never the case.
Right on cue, the cave door opened. This time, the girl that walked in was just who I was waiting for. Damon's eye widen. He had to blink a few times to make sure he wasn't dreaming. His mouth hung open, and he clearly couldn't hide his shock. He tried to stand up, completely forgetting he was chained to the ground.
I flashed the girl a smile and said, "Shawn, aren't you a little late to the party?"
"Hey. Your lucky I showed up at all." Shawn replied, although her eyes remained on Damon.
"Well, you know the saying. Better late than never." Damon said, with his eyes fixed on Shawn. Looking at her as if she was from another planet.
