Chapter 12

*flashback*

Klaus was standing in front of Rebekah before she could do anything about it. Rebekah knew that she had to be very careful with what she was going to say or do to her brother; tonight was a full moon.

"What are you doing Rebekah?" He said, taking the skate from her hand and seeming very mad.

"I was getting those stakes to burn them, so no one can kill us" She lied, amazed by her own lie. Klaus didn't speak for a long moment, as if he had believed on what she had just said.

"Really? Then let me help you!" He said, throwing the stake that was on his hand inside the fireplace. Rebekah flinched, but said nothing; when he went to get another one, she screamed:

"STOP!" she said and pushed him away with all her strength. He didn't expect that, so he literally flied through the window he had come in, breaking it in the process.

"You won't stop me, Nick! I will kill myself, in order to be with mom again!" She screamed to the now broken window.

At first, nothing happened as if Klaus had given up; she went to get another stake very fast, because she knew it wouldn't last long. "Klaus would come back as a wolf through that window in any second" She thought.

And she was right, as a half turned Nicklaus jumped on the window, his body full of cuts and blood was falling from the wounds, making the couch get a very red color.

His eyes were full of pure hate and he was completely blinded by it. Rebekah got taken aback by his eyes and didn't kill herself. He jumped from the window to the couch, letting half human half wolf footsteps on both places before his wounds could heal.

"Nick... calm down" Rebekah said, getting away from the stakes. Fighting an original vampire was tough, even for another original vampire; fighting an original hybrid and winning was something that would never happen.

Klaus seemed to be trying to control himself; as he stood on top of the stakes, he screamed:

"Rebekah, run!" But then he lost control completely and finished to turn.

Rebekah tried to run, but even on her vampire speed she wasn't as fast as the werewolf, who was surprisingly holding a stake on his mouth. She stopped running and got on a very vampire form, to defend herself, but it was no use; the werewolf jumped on her, making she fall on the glass that was on the floor and cut herself.

She managed to get away from it, but when she ran outside, he tried again, this time managing to pierce the stake that was on his mouth through her heart.

As Rebekah burned on the grass outside the Salvatore's mansion, the now completely turned werewolf howled to the moon and ran away to the darkness of the empty streets of mystic falls.

*end of flashback*

Damon was wrong when he thought Klaus would kill him fast; he had threw vervain grenades on him, exposed him to sunlight and now was whipping him. At this rate, Damon didn't even know how he was standing up, but he did know he wasn't going to cry; that was a satisfaction that he wouldn't give to Klaus.

The whip touched his back one more time and he closed his eyes, waiting for the next one.

"STOP!" A voice echoed through the room. Elena's voice. Klaus stopped instantly and Damon smiled tiredly, finally falling to the ground. He knew that she had made it, just by feeling her heartbeat. She seemed very happy too.

"You actually made it here after all" Klaus greeted Elena.

"Damon didn't do what you said he did" She stated and gave Damon that was almost passing out a reassuring smile. He would be safe.

"Really? Then who did it?" Klaus asked, throwing the whip away and then crossing his arms against his chest.

"A werewolf did it" Elena said, taking her cell phone from her purse and showing it to Klaus. He took it from her hand the exact same time it vibrated, indicating that a new message had arrived.

He read it and his eyes widened in surprise and on understanding minutes later. It also became sorrow, but Elena didn't understand why. He handled the cell phone back to her.

"Get your friend and leave, NOW" Something about his tone said that he wasn't joking, so Elena went to the cage where Damon was as quickly as she could. When she looked back, neither Klaus or Stefan was there, but she wasn't worried about that now.

She got inside the cage and that was when she realized how weak Damon was. His wounds hadn't even started to heal and he was getting whiter by the second. She could swear that if he didn't drink blood soon he would die.

"Elena..." He managed to say, when she sat next to him on the floor.

"It's ok. You are going to be ok" She tried to calm herself and him down at the same time. His deep blue eyes were staring and her brown ones intensely.

"You are so beautiful" He said, closing his eyes.

"Damon!" She screamed, knowing that if she didn't do something 'quick, he would be dead.

She searched around the cage for something that could cut and found the rests of a vervain grenade. She cut her wrist with it, and put the blood on Damon's mouth.

"Damon please wake up" She begged, wanting him to bite the blood on her wrist.

"Please Damon, I love you!" She screamed, desperately wanting him to wake up. How could she have been so stupid on choosing Stefan? Damon was her true love! Too bad she had only seen it now.

Suddenly, his wounds start to heal and his cheeks to gain color. He woke up and saw Elena crying.

"Elena... It's ok. I am ok" He said and she looked at him, giving the warmest smile she could ever give.

"Damon!" She screamed in happiness, hugging him. "Don't you ever do that to me again!"

He then realized that this couldn't be reality. Elena would never love him the way she loved Stefan; he had to be dreaming.

"I won't." He promised, but felt as if he needed to ask. "Elena, about Stefan."

"I don't wanna hear about him Damon. I choose you. I will always choose you"

He then was sure that it was all a dream. But if that was a dream, he wouldn't be able to feel the truth on Elena's touch or even the warmth of her arms around him. It was all true. She was there with him and she had chosen him.

He gave her one of the best smiles he could and leaned over to a kiss. The best kiss of his entire life.

And speaking of life, it couldn't be better, for any of them. They would be together forever.
