Guest: here's your update ;)
Alison flashed over to the turned over car and knelt down to the shattered window, offering a weak smile to her younger sister who seemed to be on the verge of a panic attack.
"Elena? Are you okay?" the brunette asked worriedly reaching out a hand to move Elena's brown locks out of the frantic girls face.
"Alison?" she questioned dizzily. Alison frowned slightly.
"You're looking a little stuck there." She gave a half-hearted smile. Elena gestured to her seat belt her brown eyes wide.
"It's my seat belt-" Elena didn't get to say anything else before Alison pulled Damon to the floor next to her. Damon examined the problem Elena was having before getting up and trying to push the car back over onto its wheels, to no avail.
"Elena, I need you to put your hands on the roof ad brace yourself," Elena did as he sister told her and nodded her head. The older Giber turned to Damon. "I need you to catch her when I undo her belt." She quickly ripped the belt from the buckle, Damon's arms swooping in to pick up the younger Gilbert.
"Are you okay? Can you stand? Anything broken?" Damon listed off his questions to the half unconscious girl. Elena only shook her head, so Damon tried to set her on her feet only to have her stumble.
Alison quickly flashed to her sister's side and helped Damon in holding the girl on her feet.
"She's fading fast." Damon muttered looking over at Alison. The older Gilbert bit her lip worried, as she placed a hand on her sister's cheek to get Elena to look at her.
"Elena? Elena, look at me. Focus look at me." Alison ordered sternly forcing Elena to keep her eyes open.
"I look like her?" She croaked out before fainting. Alison knelt on one knee catching her sister her eyes wide with concern.
"Damon." She didn't even have to voice her thoughts before Damon swooped up Elena in his arms and carried her over to his car, placing her across the back seats gently.
"Alison Gilbert, are you up for a little road trip?" Damon looked up over the roof of his car at the older Gilbert as she arched an eyebrow slowly walking over to him.
"To where?"
"Georgia." He answered simply.
"Why?"
"To go see an old friend." He smirked draping his arm around her shoulder when she reached him, guiding her to the passenger seat.
"I guess, but we should probably take Elena home first." Alison looked over at her sister worried, as she sat down.
"Don't worry, she can come with us," Damon leant down so that he was at the same level as Alison, the Gilbert girl giving his a look. He sighed. "Wouldn't you rather her be with you, where you can watch over her." Alison gave in with a sigh.
"I guess."
"Great!" Damon smirked in triumph, shutting the passenger door and climbing into the driver's seat. He smirked at the girl beside him as he started the car. "And this way you can thank Bree yourself for the ring."
Alison looked down at the ring with wide eyes before looking up at Damon with an unspoken question. Damon gave her a large smirk and nodded his head, before starting down the road.
…
Hours later the trio arrived in Georgia both gilbert girls asleep, one sprawled out across the back seat, the other resting on the glove box between the passenger seat and the driver seat. Finally the youngest Gilbert came to it, sitting up slowly looking around, trying to process where she was.
"Morning." Damon chirped cheerfully.
"Where are we?" Elena asked, placing a hand on her head dizzily.
"Georgia." Damon answered simply. This seemed to perk up Elena, as she looked around out the car windows.
"No, no, no. We are not in Georgia. Seriously Damon? Where are we?" She asked forcefully causing Damon to wince slightly as Alison stirred in her sleep, not wanting to wake the girl.
"Seriously, we're in Georgia, and sh!" He hushed her violently. "Don't wake up Alison." Elena just then seemed to notice the pile of brown hair that was her older sister.
"Damon, what did you do to her?" Elena asked, matting down her sister's wild hair gently.
"Nothing, she just fell asleep," A silence fell over the three as the car continued down the road, Damon glanced through the rear view mirror at the younger Gilbert. "How ya feeling?"
"I…" Elena trailed off touching her collar bone.
"There's no broken bones. I checked." Both snapped their attention to the heap in the passenger seat that was Alison. The brunette sat up slowly rubbing the sleep from her eyes and running a hand through her wild curls.
"Ali, you're awake, glad you could join us." Damon smirked over at the older Gilbert, to which she rolled her eyes.
"Did you know he was taking us to Georgia?" Elena asked leaning forward slightly through the space between the passenger and drivers seat.
"Yes, I did. I want to know what you were doing driving out as 10 at night, and what 'I look like her means?'" Alison ordered like the true older sister she is.
"I was driving and there was a man… I hit a man. But then he got up," Elena explained wide eyed. "Who was that?"
"That's what I'd like to know." Damon muttered shaking his head.
"Where is my phone?" Elena asked suddenly and Alison arched an eyebrow at Damon to which he shrugged. "Ok. We really need to go back. Nobody knows where I am."
"Caroline, Bonnie, Aunt Jenna, and Jeremy all think that we took a trip up to the summer cabin we used to go to. And Stefan has no idea cause I told him to go screw it," Elena looked at Alison with a curious look. "I got the vibe you were upset with Stefan when I got 75 voicemails saying to tell you 'how sorry he was and that he could explain everything'."
"Why did you do that?" Elena asked quietly.
"Cause we're going to Georgia. We could use a time out." Alison muttered to herself glancing out the window as the scenery flew by.
Suddenly 'Teenagers' by my chemical romance sounded in the car signaling Stefan was calling. Alison pulled her phone out of her bra and answered it.
"Yes, Stefan." She answered with an all too sweet smile that was obviously fake.
"She wouldn't answer her phone. Where is she? Is she okay?" Stefan's voice came through the phone only loud enough for her to hear, and Damon but that was cause of his vamp hearing.
"She didn't answer because we're having a timeout, so we confiscated the cell phones. She right here with me. And yes, she's fine. I wouldn't let anything happen to her Stefan." She said the last statement quietly and seriously.
"Let me talk to her." Stefan demanded. Alison sighed and glanced back at her sister who only shook her head.
"She doesn't want to speak to you brother." Damon shouted which resulted in Alison smacking his arm, pressing the phone back to her ear.
"Is that Damon? Alison, is that Damon?" Stefan asked the second time more forcefully. Alison rolled her eyes.
"Bye Stefan," Alison spoke, annoyance clear in her tone as she hung up and handed her phone off to Damon. "No phones. No problems." Alison sighed in content kicking her feet up on the dash board.
"Can we please just turn around?" Elena asked quietly from the back seat. Alison looked back at her younger sister with a soft smile.
"'Lena, were just steping away for 5 minutes. Think of it as some sister bonding time," Both girls looked over at Damon then back at each other. "Just ignore him, he's harmless." Elena snorted in disbelief. Alison gave Damon a pointed look and he sighed.
"You're safe with me Elena, I promise to be on my best behavior." Damon promised with almost unnoticeable roll of his eyes,
"I promise." Alison replied holding out her pinky. Elena hesitantly looped her pinky wither sisters and sighed.
"5 minutes," Alison grinned turning forward in her seat and happily tapped on the dashboard. "So where's my car?" Elena asked, finally settling into her seat.
"I pulled it off to the side of the road, don't worry." Aliso waved her sister off. Elena sighed, crossing her arms.
"What about that man? Was he…?" Elena trailed off, biting her lip.
"From what I could tell yeah." Damon answered with a tight lipped smile. Alison arched an eyebrow at the Salvatore.
"Did you know him?" she questioned.
"If I've never met him, I wouldn't know him" Damon answered sarcastically, causing Alison to give him a really look. "It's not like we all hang out at a vamp bar and grill." Despite his sarcastic remark Alison still grinned.
"That's be so cool." The eldest Gilbert grinned from ear to ear. Causing Elena to give her a weird look and Damon to grin at her, amused. The baby blue Camaro pulled up to a building, Bree's bar written in large letters across the top.
"Where are we?" Elena asked peeking out the window. "You brought me to a bar? Damon, I'm not old enough. They're not gonna let me in."
"Sure they will," Damon grinned getting out of the car and flashing over to Alison's side, opening the door for the brunette. "After you milady." He gave a mock bow. Alison gave out a loud laugh as she took his hand and allowed him to help her to her feet.
Elena eyed the two's exchange silently before stepping out of the car and following them into the bar.
"No. No. It can't be," a tall, dark skinned woman called out in disbelief when she saw Damon and the two girl's walking over. "Damon," She grinned hopping over the counter. "My honey pie." She drawled out in an accent before pulling Damon into a passionate kiss causing Alison and Elena to share surprised looks.
"Thanks for that image." Alison muttered causing her little sister to let out a quiet chuckle. Both Damon and the dark skinned woman looked over at the two. "I'm guessing you're Bree."
"You guess correctly, and who are these two young ladies?" Bree turned to Damon expecting an answer
"Bree this is Alison Gilbert, and her sister Elena." He introduced with a smirk. Bree looked over at Alison with rose eyebrows.
"So you're the new vamp," she turned to Damon and whispered. "Your description of her did not do her justice," Alison let out a chuckle having heard her comment and arched an eyebrow at the Salvatore to which he only smirked.
"How's the ring treating you?" Bree asked as she hopped back over the counter.
"It's great, thank you." Alison twirled the ring around her finger taking a seat at the bar, Damon and Elena taking a seat on either side of her.
"Listen up everyone! Here's to the man who broke my heart, crushed my soul, destroyed my life, and ruined any and all chances of happiness!" Bree said with a grin on her face as she poured some shots.
"Drink up!" Damon and Alison downed their shots, the later taking her sisters before Bree could notice. The dark skinned girl smiled warmly and lean up against the counter. "So how'd he rope you in?"
"Coffee, if I remember correctly." Alison joked grinning over at the Salvatore who smirked back. Bree smiled as she poured the girl more shots.
"So how'd you two meet?" Elena asked politely gesturing between Damon and Bree.
"College." Bree smirked.
"You went to college?" Alison chuckled, arching an eyebrow at him. Damon rolled his eyes.
"I've been on a college campus, yes." Damon replied downing another shot.
"About twenty years ago, when I was a sweet, young freshman, I met this beautiful man, and I fell in love. And then he told me about his little secret, made me love him more. Because, you see, I had a little secret of my own that I was dying to share with somebody."
Alison bit her lip, listening to the story growing awkward at how similar it was to herself and Damon, she glanced down at her shot glance before downing it with a sigh.
"She's a witch." Damon whispered, to fill in the blank.
"Changed my world, you know" Bree gave a heart warm smile tipping her glass towards Damon.
"I rocked your world." Damon corrected with a smirk.
"He is good in the sack, isn't he?" Bree asked looking over at Alison. The eldest Gilbert shrugged with a face that said 'eh' causing Damon to nudge her with his elbow. The brunette let out a loud laugh at that and even Elena found herself giggling along.
"So, what is it you want?" Bree finally asked, leaning on the counter so she was face to face with Damon. Damon went silent looking over at Elena and Alison. Both girls took the hint and got up to move over to the pool table.
"What's he saying?" Elena asked not even bothering to try and pretend like they were playing pool. Alison shrugged deciding to actually rack up the pool balls. "Can't you just… listen in?"
"No, that's rude," Alison scolded her younger sister. Elena gave a tight lip smile and nodded, both girls leant up against the pool table silently, occasionally glancing over at Damon and Bree.
"Okay I can't take it anymore." Alison leant up against the table, pushing some of her hair behind her ear.
"Come on, there's gotta be another way." She heard Damon's irritated voice snap, causing a crease of confusion to form between her eyebrows.
"After all these years, it's still only Katherine. How do you even know she's still alive?" Bree asked. Alison found herself frowning t the fact they were speaking about Katherine, she told Damon she'd help him, so why didn't he come to her.
"Well, you help me get into that tomb and we'll find out." Damon retorted.
"I already did. 20 years ago. Remember? Comet. Crystal. Spell." Bree explained tiredly.
"There's a little problem with number 2; I don't have the crystal." Damon explained and Alison bit her lip knowing that she was the reason he didn't have the crystal.
"That's it, Damon. There is no other way. It's Emily's spell." Bree reminded the Salvatore.
"What about a new spell with a new crystal that overrides Emily's spell?" Damon offered, the hopeful tone in his voice making Alison sigh.
"It doesn't work that way, baby. Emily's spell is absolute. You can't get into that tomb." Bree said sympathetically, and Alison couldn't take it anymore.
"What'd he say?" Elena asked, Alison ignored her and walked over to Damon taking a seat next to him.
"You know the whole reason of walking away is so you don't hear the conversation." Damon said sarcastically as he stared down at his beer bottle.
"You could've talked to me, I told you I'd help you find another way," Damon didn't say anything motioning fir Bree to get him another beer. Alison bit her lip as she spoke "is it because I'm the reason the crystals gone," Once again Damon didn't respond.
"So it is then." Alison sighed shaking her head before downing a shot.
"Alison…"
"No it's fine Damon," Alison cut him off forcing out a smile. "I get it, I was just the girl you used until you got Katherine, and now I screwed that up for you so why should you care," Alison went to take another shot but then realized their weren't anymore. "I need more shots!"
"Would you just listen to me?" Damon whispered fiercely trying to pull her away from the bar. Alison ripped her arm out of his grip and grabbed one of the three shots Bree lined up.
"No, just go on, continue on your little journey to find Katherine, I call Caroline or something to come pick me and Elena up." She turned on her heels abandoning the shots, her sister and Damon.
Damon let out an irritated groan as he dropped his head into his hands, running his fingers through his black hair causing it to stand up all over the place. He took a well needed shot.
"Just give her a second to cool down, take it from someone who knows, she'll realize she overreacted and apologize." Elena offered sliding into the stool Alison had abandoned.
"I don't want to talk about it." Damon muttered. Elena nodded in understanding.
"Fine, then let's talk about something else. Let's just say that I'm descended from Katherine- Does that make me part vampire?" She asked curiously, Damon looked over at the girl appreciating the slight topic change.
"Vampires can't procreate. But we love to try," He smirked, wiggling an eyebrow. Elena gave im a really look that reminded him a lot of the one Alison gave him causing him to change the topic.
"No. If you are related, it would mean Katherine had a child before she was turned." He explained.
"Did Stefan think that he could use me to replace her?" Elena asked hesitantly.
"Kind of creepy if you ask me," Damon quipped. Noticing Elena's sudden mood change he frowned, can't have both sister's mad at him. "Come on, what? You don't like pickles? What's wrong with you?" He plucked her discarded pickles from her tray and ate it.
"How can you even eat? If technically you're supposed to be—"
"Dead," Damon filled in with a smirk. "It's not such a bad word. As long as I keep a healthy diet of blood in my system, our body functions pretty normally." He explained with a shrug.
"This nice act. Is any of it real?" Elena finally asked with a disbelieving look. Luckily Bree walked over so he didn't have to answer.
"Here you go, honey." She spoke with a smile handing the beer bottle over the Salvatore.
"Thank you."
"I'll have one too." Elena spoke up holding out a hand to the dark skinned lady,
"Hmm?" Damon looked at her with a raised eyebrow a small smirk flickering on his lips.
"Time out, remember? For 5 minutes? Yeah, well that 5 minutes is going to need a beer." She admitted taking the beer Bree held out to her
"There you go."
…
"Ready Go!" Bree called and all the participants that surrounded Damon and Elena downed their shots with them. Elena winning.
"That's 3," Elena boated proudly. "Do you need a bib?" She taunted the Salvatore.
"Sorry I can't unhinge my jaw like a snake to consume alcohol." Damon retorted.
"It's a talent us Gilbert girl's possess." Elena flipped her hair over her should for effect.
"Speaking of Gilbert girl's, where's Alison?" Damon asked, looking around, noticing the brunette was no longer by the pool tables.
"I have no idea." Elena muttered confused, also looking for her sister. Damon sighed, setting his glass down and standing up.
"Bree, watch Elena." He ordered his old friend before heading out the back door. When he entered the cold night air he immediately heard the struggling. He flashed over to a back area to see Alison tied up against a pole.
"Damon, no!" She screamed but it was too late, a man whacked him upside the head causing Damon to fall to the floor.
"Who're you?" Damon grunted out from the floor.
"That's perfect. You have no idea." He muttered swinging the bat once again hitting Damon.
"What'd he do?" Alison rushed her question out, flinching whenever the bat made contact.
"He killed my girlfriend, she went to visit Stefan and he killed her," The man swung the bat again. "What'd she do to you, huh?! What'd she do? Nothing!"
"Lexi," The man froze and looked over at Alison when she mumbled her name. "Lexi was your girlfriend. I thought you were human?"
"I was." He shrugged.
"Lexi turned you." The brunette deduced.
"If you want to be with someone forever you have to live forever." He explained to the Gilbert girl, pouring Gasoline all over Damon's crumbled form causing Alison to speed up her speech.
"Wait, please don't, it's not his fault," She nearly shouted as the man flicked the match. He looked over at her curiously. "I knew he was going to do it."
"What?" He whispered, looking between the two.
"I knew. He told me and I let him. I didn't do anything to stop him, and watched as he staked her. I'm so sorry, but please don't do this," He looked down at the man on the floor the confliction clear on his face.
"If you want to get revenge kill me." She continued knowing he was close.
"Alison don't." Damon nearly shouted trying to push himself up but his broken bones weren't healed yet.
"If you want to hurt him the way you are hurting, kill me." He hesitated as he dropped the match to the ground and tossed the empty container and walked over to Alison. He knelt down, sorrow in his eyes.
"I'm sorry." He whispered before snapping her neck, thinking he had killed her he left. As soon as he was gone Damon flashed over to her side and knelt down. He let out a deep sigh as he scooped up the small girl in his arms and brought her back to the car, setting her into the passenger seat.
"What happened?" Elena nearly shouted as she ran over to the car. "Oh my, God, is she…"
"No," Damon answered instantly. "He she was human, snapped her neck." He quickly explained closing the passenger door as gently as possible.
"So she'll wake up?" Elena asked following Damon over to the driver's side.
"Yes, I'll be right back." He answered simply before walking over to the bar. Elena stood there for a moment taking in the way he seemed worried himself, before climbing into the back seats.
…
When Damon came back to the car Alison had come back to it and was leaning against the car, no emotion on her face. Upon seeing her awake Damon picked up his pace to reach her.
"Hey, your awake." He said awkwardly, leaning up against the car next to her.
"Yup." She answered simply, the attitude her voice not going unnoticed.
"About earlier with the whole Katherine thing," Damon started but was quickly cut off by Alison.
"We don't have to do this. You don't have to pretend you care if I'm mad at you or not and apologize, I'm a big girl I'll get over it. But I think it'll be best if you just stop including me in all your little plans, I always find a way to screw them up anyway." She turned and opened the door to get in but Damon's question stopped her.
"How'd you know he'd think you were human?" Alison froze one foot in the car, her back to him
"I didn't." she answered simply before getting in fully, the door slamming behind her afterwards.
There's the chapter, and now they're fighting, oh great. Who's she gonna turn to now. Maybe Tyler. Wink wink. XD anyway see you next time.
