The Vampire Diaries
Lost Love
Chapter 7- Evil Schemes
Damon listened as he stood, frozen. Then he heard it; another scream. He tried tracking down where the sound had came from and ran towards it's direction.
He was in the woods now. He stood there watching a man; a vampire, drinking blood from a girl. 'Thats where the screaming came from', Damon stated in his mind. "You-hoo!" Damon mocked. The vampire's head shot up in shock. "What do you think your doing?" Damon asked. Suddenly the vampire ran with his vampire speed over to Damon, trying to get a grip of his neck. But since Damon was obviously an older vampire; which meant stronger, before the vampire could even touch him, Damon had the vampire on the ground rolling in pain and shock.
"So your a new born vampire, I see? Well, you wanna tell me who turned you?" Damon asked, ready to rip this guys head off. The man looked awfully familiar to Damon. "I ain't tellin you nothing." The smug guy stated to Damon. Damon was now lost in another world, trying to figure out where Damon had seem him before. A bunch of words kept popping up in Damon's head.
Woods, Elena, Stefan, engagement, anger, woods, mad. Damon tried to look into all these words.
Then Damon's head shot up. Back when Stefan and Elena had made the 'big news' about there engagement- after, I got upset and went to the woods- and when I was there, there was this man- and I drank from him...' Damon thought putting all the pieces together. Now Damon had remembered clearly. That day-the day that made him so mad.
'Wait but I didn't turn him..' Damon thought.
Then Damon heard a sniffling sound, and looked below him, realizing the new born vampire was still there laying in pain. Damon got back to reality. "Mind telling me who turned you?" Damon asked, bent down on one knee, so he reached the mans level. "I dunno, man! I just woke up like this! I ain't got nothing, and I don't know shit!" The man yelled.
"Your new, you'll learn." Damon said remembering the fustration he had to go through when he was turned. Katherine had left Stefan and him, all alone to figure it out on there own. Then Damon thought of a plan. "Listen kid, I need you to do me a favor."
"Hell no!" The guy yelled again. 'This is getting annoying', Damon thought with fustration. "If you help me, I will teach you how to be a real vampire, and how to use your vampire powers, including how to hunt? Sound like a deal?" Damon usually was the one NEVER to make deals, he usually just took what he wanted and left. But now he actually needed someone's help.
"Fine." The vampire agreed. "Then it's settled." Damon completed the deal, and smiled widely. He had a plan, and it was not going to be pretty.

Morning
It was morning again. Elena slowly sat up in her bed and rubbed her eyes. There was way to much drama in her life, she thought. Then she started to remember last night. How awful it was. And Caroline had- died. That was the worst part of last night. She hated this, she hated this so much. She started at her feet and headed downstairs to the kitchen to find Aunt Judith and Jeremy sitting at the bar, drinking coffee.
When Elena entered the room all heads shot up; all eyes full with concern. Elena ignored them and headed for the coffee. "Sweetheart..." Aunt Judith started. "Would you like anything for Break fest?" She asked. "I'm not hungry" Elena said, lying. She was starving. She hadn't even ate dinner last night because she was so depressed, but she still couldn't get herself to eat. "Are you sure-" Aunt Judith tried to finish but Elena raised her hand in annoyance. "Yes. I'm sure." Elena grabbed her cup of coffee and head back upstairs to her room.
Aunt Judith turned to Jeremy. "When will I ever get that girl to talk to me?" She asked him. Jeremy just shrugged and went upstairs also.

Elena actually got her self dressed, knowing she never wanted to get up again, and stay in her bed forever. But she knew she couldn't, she had to go see Stefan. Elena combed her hair back into a ponytail, not wanting to deal with it today. She grabbed her car keys and headed downstairs.
She walked swiftly and quietly past her Aunt and Jeremy trying not to be noticed, but NO ONE could ever get past her Aunt Judith. "Elena where are you going? Are you actually going out-now?" Judith questioned. Elena was honest with her Aunt for a second. "I'm going to Stefan's. We need to get all this figured out." She said her hand raised showing off her engagement ring. She stormed out of the house and into her car and headed for the Salvatore's.
Elena got out of her car and walked smoothly across the paved pavement leading to the huge double doors entering Stefan's house. She knocked on them hard. Wanting to get out of the sunlight and next to Stefan. Then one of the doors opened, only to reveal Damon. "Why hello, Elena? Anything I can do for you?" He asked smugly with his signature smirk. She pushed past him and tried to enter the house but couldn't get all the way past Damon. "Move, now! - Please. I really don't want to deal with your crap today Damon! I need to see Stefan!" She whined and yelled. "A 'Hello Damon, may I please speak to Stefan' would have been nice.' Damon mocked and moved aside to let Elena through.
"He's in the Study room." He told her as she was already heading up the staircase like she had a 'Stefan TRACKER', in her mind. When she was outside the 'Study Room', she pushed the door hard and entered to find Stefan reading a book, sitting across a long wooden table. His head shot up in surprise. "Elena! Umm-hello, how are you?" He said getting out of his chair heading to Elena.
She moved away from him, and sat in a chair next to a small fireplace. "Stefan-" She started, but stopped. Stefan stood in front of her, but knelt down so he could look her in the eyes. "Elena whats wrong?" Stefan asked, looking in Elena's drooped eyes with concern.
Elena felt bad. Her best friend was-dead. And she was posed to have a wedding? But, Elena wasn't going to let herself have a bad day. Caroline wouldn't have wanted Elena to be like this. Even at the worst times, Caroline always made the day fun, she worked with what she had. Elena was going to go on with the wedding, because thats what Caroline would have done. Even if she wasn't here to help.
Elena's head shot up. "Wedding Plans! Me, you, and Bonnie are going to look for the perfect wedding dress and grooms suit." She said. Stefan started to smile. He nodded lightly. "Okay." He said and took Elena's hand to help her up.

Elena walked out of the dressing room with a long cream colored dress that went to the floor and had short sleeves that hanged off her shoulders. At the bottom of the dress it had a light rose color. "Like it?" Elena asked. Bonnie examined the dress. "I like it, very cute, good quality. What about you Stefan?" Bonnie asked. Stefan walked out of his dressing room. With a black suit, that had the vest and all. With a black shirt under it that had a hint of dark purple. He looked over to Elena.
She looked beautiful standing there. In that dress, that made her look like an angel. All thoughts of Katherine had went away a long time ago. And he as glad they had. "It's beautiful." He said. Elena blushed and smiled. Now Bonnie's attention, went to Stefan's wardrobe. "Hmm- the outfits good. Classic vampire. But change the shoes. There all wrong!" She said and smiled. "Bonnie is quite the 'Fashion Expert'." Elena stated and laughed.
When they were done and had bought the dress and suit, they picked the location of where the wedding would be and how it would look. It was a candle lit- black and white theme. Setted at the new church in Fells Church. It's all going to be perfect, Bonnie had told Elena. Elena just hoped it would be true.

When Elena was back home, she met up with her Aunt in the kitchen.
"Aunt Judith. The dress is perfect!" Elena exclaimed while her and her Aunt examined the dress. Elena noticed her Aunt's eyes, full of doubt. "Umm-Aunt Judith? Is there something wrong with the dress?" Elena asked. "Oh no. It's very beautiful. It's just that- well." Aunt Judith went upstairs and came down with a long box.
"What's this?" Elena asked, rubbing her hand against the box. Aunt Judith smiled widely. "Just open it." Was all she told Elena. "Umm-okay?" Elena said, peeling the tape of fast, curious to see what was in the box. Then Elena gasped.
She picked up the soft cloth. "Is this-" She started to ask, but stopped from shock. "You might want to return that dress you bought." Aunt Judiith said excited. "Is this-moms?" Elena asked, almost clear. "Yes, it's the wedding dress your mom wore to her wedding." Her Aunt stated.
Small tears ran down Elena's cheeks. "It's so beautiful." Elena chocked out. The main course of the dress was white and sleeveless. But it had 'see-through' lace that went up to the neck and down the arms. Elena looked at her Aunt. "So when's the wedding?" Aunt Judith asked. "Tomorrow; it will be in 14 days." Elena said. "Well that gives us plenty of time to figure out what to do with your hair!" Judith stated as her and Elena laughed.
"Hey Elena. Will you please go to the store and get some eggs. I would ask Jeremy but he's at a friends house. I'm out of eggs for break fest. I know you don't really eat-but still." Aunt Judith asked. "Yeah sure." Elena said. "Just let me get my car keys." Elena got her keys and was out of the door.

"Thank you..." She said to the man at the register. "Jack." Elena said aloud reading the man's name tag pinned on his shirt. Elena grabbed the plastic bag that was full of eggs and exited the store.
Elena was so glad the day was almost over. All she wanted to do was, sleep. She was going to be Mrs. Salvatore in 14 and a half, days! This gave her joy, but also stress. So she needed to rest, badly.
When Elena almost reached her car, she dropped her car keys. "Uhhh, damn it." She said bending down trying to find the keys. Which wasn't easy knowing it was pitch black. She finally found her keys and started to unlock the car door. Until she heard a voice.
"Hello Elena."
Elena whipped around to see who had called her. But no one was there. 'And now I'm hearing things, great.' She thought. She turned back around and gasped. A man was now in front of her. She had no idea who this was, a stranger perhaps. Elena's eyes grew wide. "You scared me, wait who are you?- And how do you know my name?..." She trailed off as she saw dark viens growing under the man's eyes. And not to later, two sharp vangs popped out. 'The was no stranger-' Elena thought. 'This was a vampire.'
Elena screamed but only to feel two sharp viens pierce her neck. She kicked and screamed- but it was no good. Now her vision was going blurry. Soon she would be unconscious. She kicked one more time and made some progress. As the vampire released his grip from her and started to loose his balance. Now she may have a chance. She moved around the vampire, quickly, and open her car door and locked it.
"Oh no you don't-" The man started, getting up and trying to open one of the car doors, only to find they were ALL locked. Elena put the car in drive, and the car started to move. She hadn't even realized blood was trickling down her neck and getting on her blouse. But she didn't care, she needed to be safe.
She turned the car around, heading towards Stefan's.

The vampire, had almost gotten Elena; but failed. He turned around to find Damon.
"I almost got her...But whatever, I did what you want. Now it's your part of the deal. She got away, what now." The vampire whined. "No, no. Thats what I was hoping. Let her be warned that she's not safe." Damon said and smiled under the moon light. "Let her tell her precious Stefan. That's just what I'm expecting..."
