Jessie finished getting dressed in a sheer black dress with sleeves that went halfway to her elbow. She also had an assortment of necklaces around her neck. Once she was finished, she walked into Blair's room. She noticed her sister was watching a video of Mason and mixing up a bottle.
"What are you doing?" She asked.
"I'm preparing for tonight." Blair explained. "This contains wolfsbane, which will make me weaker and less likely to break the chains."
"Well I'm going to go right now and hope that it works." Jessie replied. "I have to go see Anna today."
"How are you dealing with that?" Blair questioned.
"I'm still pretty pissed at everyone over this plan to protect." Jessie admitted. "I don't think I'll actually give Elena to Elijah, partially because I don't know what he looks like, but I don't want to help them with anything anymore."
"So what else are you going to do today?" The werewolf asked.
"I've got to work tonight." Jessie stated. "I'm going to work until close so I don't have to worry about you or Tyler having any mishaps."
"That's probably a good idea, even though I don't think that there will be any issues." Blair admitted as Jessie grabbed a bag. She also covered her head with a black hat.
Jessie then went down to the tomb, carrying said bag.
"So how are you holding up down here?" Jessie asked. "Is the Bulgarian bitch behaving?"
"Clever…I've never heard that one before." Katherine remarked from inside.
"Well she is still a colossal pain in the ass, but she hasn't tried to hurt me yet." Anna explained.
"I brought you some things." Jessie replied. "There are some spare clothes and some lunch."
Jessie pulled out a bottle full of blood. She didn't seem happy.
"I'm going to pass on all of it." The eldest vampire responded. "Anything that you give me I'm going to have to share with her."
Jessie hadn't thought of that, but Anna was right.
"So I hear that you two are the only ones that aren't going along with this whole deactivate the moonstone plan." Katherine commented. "I guess that makes you the smartest girls in town."
"Anna, I want to stop helping them." Jessie remarked.
"Why?" Anna asked.
"You're on a roll today." Katherine stated.
"It seems like every time we help them, one of us gets hurt or trapped inside of a tomb." Jessie responded. "Just because we are of the same species doesn't mean that we have to be any way involved with the Salvatore brothers. My focus is on getting you out of here. I have no idea how I'm going to do that, but I'll figure it out."
Blair was waiting at the Grill when Tyler showed up. They were meeting for lunch before they focused on locking themselves up. Tyler looked distressed.
"What's wrong?" Blair asked.
"This girl Mason knows stopped by the house." Tyler explained. "She said that he never made it back to Florida. My mom is freaking out and talking to the sheriff. I don't think we should for lunch."
Blair discreetly began to text Jessie the news.
Jessie decided to go to the Grill a little early and investigate to see if any new people came in. There she was met by none other than Damon Salvatore.
"I'm not talking to you." She remarked.
"We're looking what we suspect is a she-wolf friend of Mason's." Damon replied.
"Well if I did see her, I wouldn't try to mess with her. Tonight happens to be a full moon." Jessie pointed out. "Also if I did have a plan, I wouldn't tell you or anyone else, because I no longer care about what happens to you."
"Look, I'm sorry about what happened." Damon declared.
"No, you're not." Jessie argued. "You got my girlfriend locked inside of a tomb with a huge bitch in exchange for the moonstone that you wanted. I'm glad that you can't actually use it because all your little witch can do is give some headaches. Now leave me alone before I get you kicked out of here."
A little while later, Jessie was dressed for work. She was about to head to her first table when she was approached by a blonde women.
"This is a crazy question, but you do know Tyler Lockwood?" The woman asked. Jessie suspected this was the aforementioned she-wolf.
"We go to school together." Jessie answered. "I don't know him that well, nor could I tell you where he is."
Jessie was pretty sure that Blair was with Tyler somewhere, but didn't want to divulge that secret. She overheard Damon and Alaric talking about her and about how Damon planned slipping the girl some wolfsbane. She couldn't believe how Damon managed to consistently be a dumbass.
In the Lockwood cellar, Tyler and Blair were setting up the chains and preparing everything else.
"Are you sure that you're going to have enough time to lock yourself up?" Tyler asked.
"I'm already set up. All I have to do is go home and I plan on doing that as soon as I get done here." Blair answered.
Later in Jessie's shift, she noticed that Alaric took a seat next to the mystery women. He seemed drunk, but she knew he was faking it. She knew it was part of Damon's plan and actually kind of wanted to see it blow up in his face.
"Well hello." Alaric replied in what was probably the worst attempt of a drunken slur that she ever heard. "Can I have a scotch and whatever this beautiful woman is drinking?"
'Oh no, one's my limit." Mystery wolf said.
"Come on, it's not like I'm a freak." Alaric urged. "Just being friendly to someone who's new to town."
"Okay if you insist." She remarked with a nervous giggle. "How do you know that I'm new?"
"Because I've never seen you before and I am here every night." He replied. Jessie couldn't help but wonder how hilarious it would be if Jenna walked in.
"Excuse me, is this guy bothering you?" Damon asked appearing from behind.
"I'm not bothering anybody." Alaric replied defensively.
"Perfect do it elsewhere." Damon told him while giving him the signal. Alaric began to mix in the wolfsbane. "Don't worry. He's harmless. He's sort of the town drunk and when we get tired of him, we just put him in a cab and send him back where he came from."
The girl seemed to notice it right away. Jessie wondered where that ranked on the Damon Salvatore fail chart.
In the tomb, Anna was lying on a bed that had apparently been set up at some point.
"So we're fasting now?" Katherine asked. "How long have you actually gone without blood."
"Shut up." Anna stated. "I'm trying to sleep."
"Do you want to know what your mother felt like?" Katherine inquired as she opened the gate and walked toward the shorter girl. "Your heart still beats struggling to pump whatever blood remains and when it's gone, well it's pretty bad."
"Well at least I'll know that I won't be alone in it." Anna remarked as she sat up.
"You know you used to be a lot more fun." Katherine pointed out. "Whatever happened to hippy Anna from the 60s?"
Anna didn't respond.
"Well I need to get out of this dress." Katherine announced. "You've seen me naked before. Why don't you help me?"
Anna was a little bit shocked when Katherine pulled her dress off and stood in front of her in bra and panties. There was the girl that Anna was once almost in love with.
"Do you think Jessie is going to be able to get you out any time soon?" Katherine inquired as she leaned over her. "You heard her when she said Bonnie is extremely inexperienced."
Katherine then kissed her and she kissed back before snapping awake.
"Looks like I can still do one of my favorite tricks." The European replied. "You know being in here with you is fun."
"Stay out of my head or I won't stay out of your chest." Anna responded. Katherine smirked at the double entendre. Anna blushed. "By that, I mean I'll help your heart out, not fondle you."
"But if you kill me you'll be alone in here with no one to talk to." Katherine cooed. "I wonder if you'll start hallucinating soon."
Inside the Grill, Damon was trying to chat with the wolf girl who hadn't touched her drink. Jessie didn't know what he was trying to prove.
"I'm just here for the night." The girl declared. Damon decided to pry. "Mason Lockwood."
"I know Mason. He's a great guy." Damon declared.
"He's missing." She stated.
"What do you mean like missing-missing?" Damon asked as if there was another kind.
"How do you know Mason?" She asked.
"He's a friend of a friend." Damon answered. Once again trying to get her to drink. She did not.
Inside the Fell mansion, Blair was getting herself chained up. Her father and Tina were in the old house as the moon began to get closer to its apex. Because she was alone, she decided to wear anything. The pain of the transformation was starting. It did hurt less than the previous time, though.
Damon was continuing to try to get the woman to drink and it still wasn't working. Jessie considered just taking the cup away and letting him stop making a fool of himself.
"You I'm really tight with the sheriff. If there's anything that I can do about Mason, I will." Damon stated. "He's a great guy and he helped his niece and nephew after his their father died."
"Wait he has a niece?" The woman asked.
"No…no." Damon replied, realizing that he had revealed something that he shouldn't have. That pissed Jessie off because that was a secret. "You know you haven't touched your drink."
"You know I'm not much of a drink." She declared. "I should get going?"
"Come on one drink." Damon urged.
"You fool." She responded apparently tired of playing. "You think you're clever, don't you?"
"What do you want with Mason Lockwood?" Damon grilled.
"He's my friend." The woman answered.
"Well, I'm sorry to inform you, but you probably won't find him." Damon spat.
"And why not?" She challenged.
"You should leave town." Damon ordered. Jessie could not believe that he was actually stupid enough to threaten a werewolf on the night of a full moon."
"Are you threatening me?" The blonde asked. Damon smirked. "On a full moon, how stupid are you?"'
"Anyway how about that second round?" Alaric interrupted. Yeah the plan was falling apart quickly.
"I think we're done, Ric." Damon told him. "You think I'm afraid of you?"
"No, I don't." She replied. "That's your vampire arrogance. I saw you two trying to slip me wolfsbane. At least someone here knows not to mess with me. You see I've been at this a long time and on any other night, the situation would be reversed, but tonight is not the night to pick a fight with me. You've been marked."
She walked out and the two knuckleheads left shortly after. Jessie made sure to wave to them as they did. She knew that she should care about Damon, but she was feeling too spiteful to give a damn about him at the moment.
Back in the tomb, Anna leaned against the wall, not wanting to fall asleep because she didn't want to fall asleep to keep Katherine out of her and also keep her from killing her.
"Pretty soon you won't be able to talk at all." Katherine remarked.
"It will be worth it because I won't have to listen to you." Anna remarked. "So you were my friend once. That was only because my mom and I were stupid enough to trust you. I wish that I could hand you over to Klaus so he could jam a stake in your heart."
"What, do you want me to apologize?" Katherine asked. "I'm not sorry. I've done everything to save myself from Klaus. I faked my death so he wouldn't know that I was alive."
"Well it's good to know that you're finally being punished for it." Anna stated. "I can't tell if you're smart of you're just a pathetic waste of space that somehow got lucky. You wouldn't have known that Caroline had Damon's blood in her system if Bonnie hadn't told you. You didn't know that you broke the sire bond that you had over Damon. You didn't even know that Richard Lockwood had a secret daughter who was already a werewolf and you didn't need to make a new one."
The two of them then heard the sound of someone entering the tomb. They both went towards the doorway and noticed that Elijah was standing there. Katherine definitely looked afraid.
"Elijah." Katherine replied in shock.
"Good evening, Katerina, Annabelle." Elijah greeted. He looked over at Anna. "You've made bail."
"What?" Anna asked.
"I made a deal with a Miss Elena Gilbert." He explained. "Please step outside. I've had my witch remove the spell on the tomb."
Anna walked outside slowly. Katherine then tried to escape, but Elijah blocked her path.
"As for you, however." Elijah interrupted before he began to compel her. "You shall not exit the tomb until I say so. My brother will want to know where you are."
Elijah then stepped out and looked back at Anna. She knew Originals could compel other vampires, so it didn't surprise her.
"You're free to go." Elijah reiterated. "I believe that your girlfriend is getting off work right around now. I think it would be a nice surprise if you went over to pick her up."
"Don't let him leave me!" Katherine shouted.
"See you, Bitch." Anna responded.
Jessie walked out around back. The doors had been locked and she went to take out the trash and see if the moon had clouded over yet. She found that it had. She went back inside and heard a pounding on the door. She went open them.
"We're closed." She remarked, not looking up.
"I know." Anna replied. "I came to pick you up."
Jessie's jaw nearly dropped. "How?" She asked. It was the only word that she managed to get out. She wrapped Anna in a hug.
"Elena made a deal with Elijah." Anna explained. "Apparently part of it involved undoing the tomb spell. But don't worry. Katherine is still inside, because Elijah compelled her."
She didn't care about the fact that that had happened. She just gave Anna probably the longest kiss that she had ever experienced.
"I wanna go check on my sister." Jessie declared, happily pulling on Anna's hand.
So Elena got Anna out of the tomb. That probably means that Jessie owes her and she's be rejoining Team Elena. You knew it wouldn't last. Please don't forget to review.
