I feels so unloved! I only got one review last chapter... although it's probably my fault for practically abandoning this story...
I don't own Vampire Diaries!
Scarlett's POV
I looked up at Elijah as he looked at me from the other side of the door. "Elijah, where am I?"
He came into the room. "You sister, are in a room which you cannot get out of."
I nodded and crossed my arms. "I think I figured that out myself but why am I here?"
He smiled a little. "I wanted to talk to you, Scarlett."
I glared. "Really, because the last time I saw you, you tried to kill me."
He nodded. "But that was when I was working with Klaus; I'm here to help you take him down."
I shook my head. "I'm not buying it; you kidnapped me, you killed Trevor. I can't trust you anymore!"
He nodded. "Look I'm sorry but I had to take you away from that place, I needed to talk to you; you're my family."
I snorted and looked out the window. "Isn't Nicklaus your brother too, I don't care what you say, you betrayed me end of story. So either kill me or let me go, I don't care anymore."
I felt him walk closer to me. "I'm not going to kill you, and in-case you don't remember; you betrayed us too."
I turned to face him. "I would have never betrayed you; I would have died before I did anything to hurt you. I didn't help Katherine escape; I didn't even know she had escaped until I found her in Mystic Falls hundreds of years later."
He nodded. "I know that now but please listen to me. If you still want to leave after a week; you can."
I sighed but knew there was no use in arguing. "Fine I'll listen but I'm not changing my mind." He smiled a little. "I'm not leaving but can you please tell the witch that's keeping me in here to get rid of the spell?" I pointed to the ceiling. "It's hard to remove it if I'm inside it but if you're afraid I'll leave put a spell around the house."
He nodded. "I trust you I'll tell the witch to lift the spell." He walked to the door. "I'll come back to get you when I'm done."
He was about to walk out. "Wait, I need a change of clothes." He looked back at me.
"I'll see what I can do." He closed the door and I walked over to my bed and sat cross-legged.
I could get out of here but the spell was in my Grimoire which I had in my bag that I dropped back at the house. I thought about Damon and the others, would they notice I was missing?
I checked my pocket and was shocked to see that my phone was actually there. I turned in on and walked over to the bathroom.
There were toms of voicemails, most of them from Caroline and Damon.
I decided it would be good to call them back. I dialed Caroline's number and waited as she answered. "Hello?"
I sighed in relief. "Caroline it's me?" I whispered so if Elijah was in the house he wouldn't hear me.
She gasped. "Oh my god, Scar; where are you? Everyone's worried about you and when we found your bag we didn't know what to think."
I sighed again. "I'm fine Care but I'm not going to be there for at least a week, how long was I gone?"
She exhaled. "About two days."
I gasped. "I've been unconscious for two days."
"Unconscious? What are you talking about, where are you? I'm coming to get you."
I shook my head "I'll explain when I get back, don't worry about anything." I hung up.
I closed my eyes and set the phone back in my pocket. I quickly walked out of the room and sat down on the bed again.
I concentrated on my thoughts; I hadn't drank any blood in three days, I was starving.
About twenty minutes later I couldn't take it anymore; the thirst was killing me.
Right now I was pacing back and forth in my room; I had been trying to break the spell but I couldn't concentrate.
Finally after what seemed like years Elijah came back, and he brought me some blood bags.
I immediately ripped into the bags and sucked the warm red liquid from the bag. It tasted great in my mouth and I couldn't help to think about how much I wanted it. After about five bags I stopped and noticed Elijah was looking at me.
"Your appetite hasn't changed I see." He pointed to the bags lying at my feet. "Still can't get enough blood."
I sipped the last drops of blood and let the bag fall on the floor. "I haven't eaten any blood in about three days so I have a right to feed as much as I want." I grabbed another bag. "I'm not hurting anyone."
I opened the bag but didn't devour the blood, just sipped it slowly. "Can I get out of this room now? I'm getting tired of just sitting around and doing nothing."
He nodded. "I had the spell lifted, you can come out."
I finished the rest of the blood and walked out of the door; I was bored and wanted to explore the house. The place was big but not as big as the mansion.
It had about five rooms when the mansion had about ten or more, the living room was smaller and there were less bathrooms.
When I finally had the house memorized I walked over to Elijah that was just standing there, looking at me amused. "What do you want to talk about?"
He motioned for me to sit in the couch. "After you left Klaus became obsessed with finding you, he went to great lengths actually."
I nodded and looked down as he sat down next to me. "And eventually he did, along with my new family."
He put his hand on my shoulder. "I heard about that, I'm terribly sorry. There was nothing I could do."
I looked at him. "Sorry isn't going to bring them back." I sighed and shook my head. "I just lost so much during those times, my family was one thing."
"What else did you lose?"
I shrugged. "Nothing that matters now, it was about a hundred years ago."
He sighed. "If this is because of Klaus it does matter."
I got up and walked over to the window. "Everything in my life has to do with him; there is nothing that I do that isn't affected by him in some way." I rubbed my arms. "He's a part of everything; what I eat, where I live, how I look, everything."
I felt him stand up. "That is exactly why he must be taken down."
I nodded. "I will take him down but I don't need your help to do it. Just tell me after all this time; you do you want to kill him now?"
He sighed. "He killed our family; scattered their bodies in the sea so they could never be found."
I looked at him. "Took you long enough."
He turned me to face him. "You knew about this?"
I nodded. "He's been doing it since I left; making sure none of our family helped me." I bit my lip. "I was with mother when it happened, she told me to run and protect myself; I'm sorry."
He shook his head and moved back. "There was nothing you could do. At least Klaus didn't get to you first." He pointed to a suitcase next to the couch. "One of my witches brought you some of your clothes."
I nodded and looked down at my shirt. "I'm going to take a shower and change." I grabbed the suitcase and headed for the room. "Who are your witches by the way?" I turned back to him.
He looked at me and shrugged. "I'll tell you eventually."
I set my suitcase down and crossed my arms. "It's not a Bennett so is it a Martin? They'd be the only ones crazy enough to help you."
He didn't answer and I took it as my answer. "Figures; that with Greta and everything, have you even told them?" Again he remained silent. "You know you have to tell them eventually."
Damon's POV
I looked at Caroline. "Let me get this straight; she called you to tell you she wouldn't be back for a week?"
She nodded. "She was whispering and she mumbled something about being unconscious for two days. When I asked her where she was she hung up."
I shook my head. "Great, just great; Stefan's stuck in the tomb, Elena has to be kept a watch on, Katherine doesn't have the moonstone, Elijah is alive, the full moon is tonight and to top it all off our second witch is kidnapped and won't tell us where she is."
Bonnie spoke up. "She's a powerful witch she'll find a way out, for now we let her worry about herself."
Caroline nodded. "As for the rest of those things; Jeremy can keep an eye on Elena, I can go with Tyler and make sure he stays away from the town and you and Bonnie find a way to get Stefan out. The rest of those things we'll deal with later."
Alaric sighed. "Elena's safe in the house so Elijah won't be able get to her. And the moonstone, maybe Stefan can get Katherine to tell us who took it."
Jeremy nodded. "As for Elena; we should probably head home before she gets up and demands why she can't get out."
Alaric and Jeremy got up and walked out of the boarding house's front door. Caroline looked at us. "I'm going to go see Tyler."
She walked out leaving only the witch with me. "So do you even have a clue on how to get him out?"
She nodded and sighed. "I know the spell but I don't have enough power."
I nodded. "In that case, who does have enough power?"
She sighed. "Well, if Scarlett was here that would be really helpful but she's not so we need someone else to help us."
I looked at her. "Who else will help us? I mean you almost killed witch boy when we tried to get the moonstone."
She nodded. "I know that, but I need to do some research maybe Scarlett's Grimoire will have an answer."
I nodded and handed her Scarlett's book. "Have fun with that."
I walked into my room to get my jacket before walking out of the door. "What do you need now, Rick?" I opened my phone and answered it.
"They put up a missing person's report for Mason Lockwood; a girl came here and said that he never arrived back home, I think she might be one of them."
I nodded. "Hold on I'll be right there, I need to get some wolfsbane."
