No one dared to breath until Tolucan was gone, and even then no one spoke. Damon ran over to where Elena was and held her close his arms forming an iron cage around her.
"Hey guys... Its um a little tense in here isnt it" Jeremy said shuffling at the door nervously, he had just returned from his shift at the Grill.
"Go to you room Jer" Elena whispered her voice being to break because of her tears swelling.
"Elena?" Jeremy asked stepping closer.
"I said go to your room!" She yelled "For once in your life Jeremy listen to me!" Her face was contortorted into a snarl the vains beneath her eyes bulged, Jeremy jumped and practically ran to his room. When Elena heard the door close she slumped breaking down in tears, Damon caught her in his arms and was whispering soothing things in her ear.
"What does he even want?" She sobbed.
"Power, its what all absorbers want" Katherine stated, her usual snark all gone.
"So their baby is going to be powerful?" Bonnie asked hesitantly.
"The last vampire child was more powerful than any witch but he was taken by the absorber that created it, i assume he will want to take this baby for the power" Katheirne answered.
"Why are you telling us all this, what will you get out of it?" Elena asked tearfully.
"Revenge" Katherine stated simply starting to sound more like herself.
"You were the other vampire mother wasnt you?" Bonnie asked her voice quiet from not using it, when Katherine didn't respond everyone stared.
"You lost two children" Elena stated looking up at katherine.
"When i heard there was a chance to be a mother i took it, i tracked down one of the few absorbers left in the world and begged him to give me a chance, i told him how i had lost my other daughter and he sympathised, he gave me that chance, but then he took it away again once he was born" Katherine informed her voice cold.
"Do you not mourn? have you no sympathy?" Elena Demanded tearfully.
"I had over 100 years to mourn, im good" Katherine snapped.
"Look, you said that there kind was practically instinct, how do they di?" Damon asked.
"You starve them, beheading, removing their heart or any body part wont work, their core is pure life force which will allow them to continue living" Katherine answered.
"So how can we stop him feeding, where can we find his food sources?" Damon asked.
"We already have one, dont we Bonnie" Katherine stated turning to Bonnie who seemed to get smaller.
"You knew?" Elena whimpered shocked.
"He made me, he took my powers elena, he spared my life but he is using my power to function, Katherine was right, Witches are useless against him" Bonnie sniffled.
"Why didnt you tell us" Damon hissed.
"He took Stefan, and threatened jeremy and Elena, i knew that he wouldnt hurt Elena directly so i left him to it" Bonnie sobbed sitting down and covering her face with her hands.
"Stefan's gone, even if we save him the Stefan we knew is gone, That smell of rot was coming from him, he had taken parts of stefan himself and used it to make himself younger" Elena said wiping away her tears.
"But stefan will just regenerate it surely" Damon whispered dreading the answer.
"No he took away the vampirism, Stefan is mortal and dying" Elena said quietly not wanting to hurt Damon but knowing he had a right to know.
Damon looked as though he was going to explode his face flushed red and he bit his lower lip, running and through his hair.
Finally he snapped completely, flipping the table and bar shattering the bottles and glasses and they hit the flaw, Elena flinched and moved away from the smattering of glass.
"Damon what your doing now wont get Stefan back" Bonnie hissed finally gaining back some confidence.
"Damo why dont we just, get some rest, we can think about how to deal with this tommorow" Elena whispered.
"Tommorow? Elena he could be more powerful tommorow, we have to act now!" Damon yelled.
"No damon. You have a baby to care for now, you cant just go in like a mad man" Elena scolded.
"Its worked before" He hissed.
"But it wont work now, Absorbers are clever you have to destroy all sources of power before being able to kill him, no food sources no power, meaning he is mortal, You need to take care of you family" Katherine growled standing face to face with damon. Much closer than what he felt comfortable with, but he wasnt going to let her see that.
"Then how do we find them?" Damon spat.
"Leave it to me, now go take care of her Damon" Katherine growled quietly. Damon barged past her but listened to what she had said praying that he wouldnt regret it. Damon took Elenas hand and pulled her close.
Just before they left the room Elena turned back to Katherine and did something she never thought she would do. Thank her.
Once they were gone Katherine turned to Bonnie.
"Right little witch, your coming with me" Katherine smiled the familier smirk once again rested on her features.
