Chapter 23

A/N: This is an AU story for the vampire diaries. I do not own the vampire dairies.

Recap: Kol and Bonnie are staying in the Lake house. Looking for a spell that will weaken Qetsiyah and help Silas end her. Elena, Caroline and Rebekah look for Elijah, Klaus and Sophie through the catacombs. Everything goes dark and Elena hears Caroline scream and Rebekah sounding as if she is fighting someone. Elena is grabbed by escapes and runs away despite that she can hardly see.

New Orleans:

Elena looked up at the dark figure who she thought she could see smirking at her. She decided to use her leg to knock them to the ground and she began to flash away through the catacombs. She suddenly found herself in another old looking room. As she walked into it she suddenly tripped and fell face first on the ground. She screamed when she came face to face with a skeleton. She took out her phone and used the light to help her see. She moved out of the old room and looked around when she was suddenly grabbed and flashed away. She screamed but it was muffled with the hand that was now over her mouth. They turned her around and she was met with Elijah. She breathed a sigh of relief. He put his finger to his lips and wrapped an arm around her waist to pull her with him into another room full of bodies. Elijah still had the arm wrapped around her as they hid in the room against the wall. She found herself leaning into him feeling as his arms were protecting her from everything and everyone. That's when she heard voices. She caught one as Marcel.

"Find that girl that looks like Katerina Petrova and the blonde vampire, especially the blonde vampire. Klaus will forever regret leaving himself open that girl will make him feel pain. And then he will learn better then to mess with me."Elena glanced at Elijah. When Elena heard them leave she turned to Elijah.

"Elijah what's going on?" She asked.

"Those vampires, daggered me but they took it out. They didn't know that they were supposed to leave it in. They caught Niklaus, Sophie and me off guard and attacked us. Turns out Sophie was right when she said that she might have found something. Marcel doesn't live down here but it's a place where his vampires and he comes to hide out and move under the city. They can be anywhere through secret passages that have been created over the centuries. I don't know what happened to Sophie or Klaus. I am still looking for them when I heard you scream. I at first thought that it wasn't you because I didn't think that you were down here. Not until I overheard from a vampire saying that you were down here and escaped him. So then I found you," He said. She nodded.

"It got dark and we couldn't see. I heard Caroline scream and then I heard Rebekah fighting someone. I don't know what happened to them because I was attacked but I managed to get away. And that's how we met up." She explained. Elijah nodded.

"Let's look for the others quickly, and we have to find Miss Caroline soon before Marcel get's his hands on her." He said.

Mystic Falls:

"I'm not blushing! And I wasn't thinking about anything!" Bonnie protested glaring at Kol who was still smirking at her.

"Well we could always talk about how you were jealous back at the Grill place." She glared daggers at him.

"I was not jealous." She insisted folding her arms across her chest.

"Seems like you were darling,"

"Jealous you're ridiculous." She said.

"Bonnie Bennett was jealous just admit it already." He said putting his arms behind his head and leaning back smirking still.

"Your impossible," She stood and walked away to the kitchen. He followed her.

"Impossibly handsome." She scoffed. "Why can't you admit that you were jealous?" She glared at him.

"I was not jealous Kol you can flirt with anyone you want I don't care. God I wouldn't care if you got hurt I don't care about you what's so ever and I never will." She stopped realizing her words and looked to Kol who looked serious now. She could see hurt in his eyes. But his face hardened. "No, Kol I didn't mean that I…" He glared at her.

"Got it darling, I got it. Bloody hell I can see that maybe it was just a waste to come here with you. I should have taken off by now and look for my family." Kol turned and Bonnie swallowed hard and rushed to him.

"No, Kol I am sorry really I didn't mean don't go please don't go." She begged.

"How can I stay with someone who hates me, and maybe I hate them too." His words cut through her like a knife and he turned away and walked out the door. She heard the door slam and she flinched. She felt a tear escape her cheek at hearing that he hated her.

She sat in her room feeling tears drop from her eyes but she made no sound just let the tears fall and feel the sadness within her. She had started to actually care for Kol and when she had said that she didn't she made a mistake and hurt him. The old Bonnie would have said that it wasn't possible to not hurt him because he couldn't feel. But she knew that, that was a lie. Kol could feel she had seen his humanity. He had showed it to her and only her. She wanted to take it back but he was gone perhaps for good. She walked downstairs to make something to eat when she was suddenly flashed into a wall. At first she thought it was Kol because he was the only invited in at the moment and she thought he would be mad. He had done it once before. But instead she found an angry Damon holding her by the throat.

"How are you alive?" He demanded. She was in a matter of shock seeing Damon there.

"I did a spell to bring me back from the dead." He glared at her.

"Where is Elena?" He choked her harder and she gave in to tell him where she was.

"She's in New Orleans with Elijah, Caroline and Klaus."

"What?!" He growled. "I will kill them. She is not safe there how could she be so stupid."

"Damon you're not together anymore you need to let her go." Bonnie told him. Damon just began crushing her windpipe in anger so all she could do was struggle and think about the pain. She couldn't get herself to fight him struggling for a breath. Her vision was starting to get a little foggy. Suddenly his weight was gone and she gasped for breath coughing. She looked to see Kol having Damon against the wall choking him.

"Salvatore, you always seem to be a bloody thorn in my side." Kol said. Damon glared at him but was also in confusion.

"You brought him back to life with you judgy." Damon snapped at her. She was still panting.

"Don't talk to her like that," Kol said and began choking Damon harder in anger. She watched amazed how Kol was showing that cared for her really. He didn't like how Damon was speaking to her. But she wouldn't give in even if she saw just a little care for her. Damon tried to get the upper hand on him but he was no match for the original who quickly snapped his neck. Bonnie watched as Damon's body fell to the ground with a thud. Kol turned to her but didn't say anything.

"Thank you," She tried to tell him. She knew he of course could hear her he was just still mad at her for what she had said to him. He just nodded and looked away walking to the body and bringing it outside before flashing off into the night. He knew Damon would wake up but he would make sure that the Salvatore was far enough from the house and from Bonnie. Kol was still mad at her for what she said. But for some reason he couldn't bring himself to harm her or her to be harmed. He really had fallen for this girl and he was in too deep already. Bonnie was still where she was when Kol had left to get rid of Damon. She was thinking that perhaps she should start by seeing what 'this' is between them. And she wasn't going to back out of it her friends were either with an original or friends with them. Perhaps Kol and her could work and become more.

Note: So there is the chapter like I promised. And more good news I have my laptop back now and it works! Also I was using it right now as I typed this. YAY! LOL More fast chapters. Just would like to see how I did on this chapter first though. Reviews thanks.
