Samantha- Just to clear up any confusion anna and jeremy date :D

Jeremy strode ahead of Katherine, his face a mask of fear and worry. Everything was different to him; nothing was what it once was like. Birds' singing in the tree's sounded like they were screeching at volumes their small lungs couldn't possibly reach. Jeremy could hear every heartbeat, every breath of the people around him. Even the cars driving on the road sounded more like jumbo jets. It was becoming all too much for the youngest Gilbert but sadly there was nothing anybody could do to save him. He was damned to a life he thought he wanted…. He thought he had wanted to be like Anna so they could always be together, but now that he had gotten his wish all he wanted to do was return to sender. He didn't want to be Katherine's pawn; he wanted to be with his girlfriend. Jeremy had no idea what Katherine was planning or how it involved Anna but sooner rather than later he was going to find out her true intentions for returning.

"I pray you're not playing games with me, jer. I do hope your taking me to Anna because if you're not I won't be very happy and you won't like me when I'm angry. "Katherine grinned from ear to ear as she temporarily revealed her true nature, it was so fast that it was impossible for any humans to see but Jeremy saw.

That sort of look had no right being on his big sisters face. Black veins protruding from her cheeks to circle around her eyes, her pupils leaking out into the whites of her eyes only to turn a murky blood red.

"I didn't take you as a hulk fan." Jeremy threw in sarcastically as he continued to walk forward, every step taking him closer to Anna. Bringing Katherine closer to Anna. "I see you more as a Mr. Burns from the Simpsons kind of chick."

"I don't like your tone of voice little brother." Katherine warned as she darted past Jeremy with vampire speed. "And I don't have a problem about killing every single man, women and child in this quaint little town square. Their lives are in your hands now, boy. Let's hurry this trip along."

Jeremy sped up his walking till he was practically jogging to his destination; he still didn't have full control over his abilities just yet, because he still hadn't fed properly. All Katherine had provided him with was a small vial of rabbit blood, not even that was enough to fully change him; he needed a lot more than that. He just hoped that Anna would be ready for what was coming.

"Jeremy!" Anna yelled from the porch of her temporary home, she had felt Jeremy coming… She had felt Elena coming, but something wasn't quite right.

"Anna!" Jeremy yelled back in return, as he ran forward using his vampire speed and straight into her open arms. It had surprised him that he had been able to use his speed but who it surprised more was Anna. To say his girlfriend was shocked was the polite explanation for her reaction. In all honesty, she tried to throw him off in horror. "Anna…. Anna! It's okay… it's okay. "Jeremy whispered as he rubbed the side of Anna's face in an attempt to calm down. She had always liked the contact, she had said it helped her connected with him, helped her feel loved.

"You're a vampire. Oh god, you-you... How?" Anna begged as Jeremy simply angled his head in the direction of his companion in an attempt to answer her. Anna followed his eye line and allowed her eyes to fall on Elena.

"You did this…"She whispered her mind not fully understand what was happening.

" Yahtzee." Katherine giggled not even trying to mimic Elena anymore; she was tired with the whole act. "Didn't take you as long as I thought it would to be honest. It seems you have grown more perceptive since we last saw each other."

Anna moved away from the embrace of her boyfriend and moved forward, studying 'Elena' with every step. Everything from Elena's attire, to the way she stood told Anna all she needed to know. The person standing in front of her was not her boyfriend's sister; this person was someone she hadn't seen in a very long time, someone she hoped she would never see again. "Katherine…"

"Pleasure to see you again." Katherine beamed as she strode past the two love birds and into the house Anna had previously come out of, she didn't need an invitation to enter a fellow vampire's house. As if on cue, Jeremy and Anna appeared in the doorway their faces crippled with concern.

"I don't have all day kiddies, so if you two would be so kind as to hurry the hell up… I'd like to begin my conversation sometime this century; after all it will benefit your future together."

"I heard you were dead." Anna hissed as she and Jeremy sunk into two oversized chairs, letting the comfortable fabric ease their tension.

"Was dead, didn't like it too much. But that's all in the past, sweetie. We have more important things to talk about right now." Katherine began as she too got comfortable, "I've decided upon a few things that, I understand won't be achievable on my own. I need help…"

The room fell silent, static thick in the air. Everything boiled down to what Katherine wanted and what she wanted, she usually got. If Elena hadn't been in the equation, Anna was positive that Katherine would be long dead by either her hand or someone else's. Elena was the hostage in the whole situation… after all Katherine understood how to play games, she was an old pro.

"If you help me, I let sweet little Elena go… if you don't help me, well you'll be seeing an awful lot more of me around here and trust me I won't be as pleasant. What I suggest you two should do, is listen to my offer. " Typical Katherine place down the cards then threaten like hell.

"What did you have in mind?" Anna asked, keeping her poker face in place. She really didn't want to have anything to do with Miss Peirce at the moment after all she had just gotten settled back into Mystic Falls, she didn't want anything to jeopardize her new life.

"I always did like it here in Mystic Falls, as I am well aware you do too. But wouldn't it be nicer to not have to hide your true nature? To be free to be yourselves and not live in fear of those nifty little council members and their love of pointy objects?"

"What are you getting at here, bitch?" Jeremy burst in anger; he was getting rather sick of the whole charade. "What are you gonna do, huh? Kill the weak and turn the strong?"

Katherine laughed deep and cold, her eyes glinting with a benevolence that was anything but human.

"You are a brainy boy, Jeremy." Katherine mocked as she continued to laugh, "That is precisely what I intend to do. It's been my plan since 1864 and I do intend to fulfill it."
