Woods.
Damon was leading Caroline, Tyler, and Matt away from the tomb in the woods. Tyler was about to transform, and Damon wanted to far gone by the time that happened.
"Is he okay?" Matt asked Caroline. Damon looked behind him for a second.
"He better not wolf out on us." Damon said, but kept walking. Then his phone rang.
"Stefan." Damon answered.
What are you doing? Stefan asked him.
"Saving the day...or in this case saving Elena's friends who were about to be sacrificed. Tell Elena to sit tight, the sacrifice may be postponed."
Too late.
"What? What do you mean?"
Klaus came and took her already.
Damon froze. "I'll handle it." he said angrily, hanging up the phone and shoving it back in his pocket.
"We gotta hurry." Damon told them. He pulled his phone back out to call Rose. Whatever her and her hunter pals had planned needed to happen now. He waited while it rang, but Rose never answered. Damon swore a few times under his breath. Where was she?
Tyler finally started to transform and begged them to run. As Tyler tried attacking Caroline, Damon stepped in and held him off while the other two ran, once they were at a safe enough distance Damon sped away.
llllllllllllllllllllllllll
Motel
Dean had been waiting a while, and Rose still wasn't there.
"Come on Bela, where are you?" he said aloud. Sam and Cas were gone finding Crowley, and by himself Dean just wasn't patient enough to sit around waiting.
He dialed her number again, and still nothing. That's weird.
llllllllllllllllllllllll
Alaric's Apartment.
Klaus and Katherine were standing in the middle of the room when Damon walked through the door.
"Wasn't aware you'd been invited in." Klaus commented dryly. "Why are you here?"
"To tell you that you'll have to postpone the sacrifice."
"Didn't we discuss this already, I told you no messing up my plans. Not going to happen."
"Yes, but that discussion was before I saved your werewolf and vampire, and also killed your witch."
Klaus turned towards him.
"Excuse me?"
"You can kill me if you have to." Damon told him. "It was all me though."
"You know I've heard all about you, and I knew you'd try to stop me. So..." Klaus said, grabbing his laptop. He opens up a video, Damon can see it's someone tied down in chains...a werewolf.
"Need a closer look?" Klaus said, and made the video full screen. It was Jules.
Damon sighed, now he was frustrated.
"When you spend a thousand years trying to break a curse, you learn to have a few back up plans. Back up witch, werewolf...and vampire."
Damon thought about it...he figured Klaus was going to take either him or Katherine. Nothing was going as planned.
Suddenly Klaus rushed at Damon, and for Damon the room went dark as he fell to the floor unconcious.
llllllllllllllllllllllll
Motel
Dean still was waiting, and by this time he figured Rose had to have gotten distracted. Maybe she was helping Damon...but then she'd supposedly been on her way. He knew she could take care of herself, but still...Dean had no way of calling Damon. He finally made the decision to head over to the Salvatore place and see what was going on.
llllllllllllllllllllllll
Alaric's Apartment.
Damon stirred awake to Katherine's voice telling him to wake up.
"What the hell happened?" Damon asked, picking himself up off the floor.
"He left, said it was time to do the sacrifice. I'm sorry, I had to tell him where she'd be...he would have known I was on vervain."
"What, what are you talking about?"
"Earlier, Klaus made me tell him, he needed an extra vampire."
"Who Katherine? Who is his vampire?"
Katherine glanced down at the floor. Damon thought for a second...the only other vampire he knew was...oh hell no. Rose.
"He didn't..." Damon started. "Why didn't he just take me...I mean you I get, he wants to torture you forever, but why not take me?"
Damon was furious, first Elena, now Rose. Damn it.
"He was going to...then he said you were as good as dead and it wouldn't work."
"What? Why?"
Katherine looked at his arm, and rolled up the sleeve.
"What is this?" she asked. Damon looked down to his arm. Crap!
"Werewolf bite..." he said, rolling his eyes. Just what he needed right now.
llllllllllllllllllllllll
Woods Somewhere. :)
Greta is walking Elena to the spot of the ritual.
"This way." Greta ordered.
Suddenly fire lit up everywhere. Elena looked around, and noticed someone lying on the ground.
"Who.." Elena started, and walked closer. She finally noticed the woman. Oh God. "Rose." Elena called out.
Rose stirred, and sat up. Her head was killing her.
"Elena?"
Elena rushed over.
"What happened?"
"I don't know..."
"She's part of the sacrifice. You have your friend to thank for that." Greta told them.
"What?" Elena asked.
Rose sighed.
"Elena, Klaus was going to use Tyler and Caroline...Damon went and rescued them. Klaus must have found out."
Oh god. Elena thought. She had no idea Klaus was planning on Caroline and Tyler being a part of this.
"I'm sorry." Elena said.
"It's fine. We'll get out of this Elena." Rose said.
The problem was that Dean had no idea where they were, neither did Damon. What the hell was going to happen now?
End Chapter.
