Hi everybody! Thanks so much for reading! These chapters haven't been that long but the next ones are longer. Here is... CHAPTER 3!

Chapter 3

Stefan had finally figured out where Elena was. He knew Caroline wouldn't have let Elena put herself in any danger so there were two possibilities in Stefan's mind. She was either with Damon, or talking to Katherine. After calling Damon he realized it was the latter. He knew that Elena thought that Katherine wasn't any danger in the tomb but he knew she still was.

He heard them talking as he was walking through the woods. He wasn't worried until he heard Katherine say, "Just in time." and he knew that she had heard him.

He immediately started running as fast as he could to the tomb and was in there in a second.

Elena wasn't there.

That didn't make sense! He had just heard her and Katherine talking! "Katherine!" Stefan called into the tomb, when she didn't answer he screamed, "KATHERINE!"

Just then saw her walking to the front of the tomb. "Yes my dear?" She said batting her eyes.

"Where. Is. Elena." He said not taking any of her crap.

"Well she's right here." Katherine said walking to the back of the tomb. When she came back to the front she was dragging an unconscious Elena. "I whacked her head pretty good. She'll probably have a bruise." She said smiling.

"Katherine I swear to God if you don't give her to me right now-" Stefan said before being interrupted by Katherine,

"What will you do? Come in here and be my playmate?" She asked seeming very excited.

"Please just give her to me." Stefan said. He knew that going into the tomb would be idiotic and pointless.

"Hmmm… Nope. Not going to happen." Katherine said.

Stefan turned around and started to call Damon.

It went straight to voicemail.

"Where are you? Why is your phone off? Call me now. Katherine has Elena."

"Well, I'm bored. If you aren't coming in here I would like to go take a nap." And with that Katherine walked to the back of the tomb taking Elena with her.

Stefan almost threw something at her but in his rage he might miss and hit Elena.

So he called Bonnie.

O

Bonnie was getting ready to go to the grill when she got a call from Stefan.

"Hey Stefan. What's up?" She said putting on a necklace.

"Katherine has Elena in the tomb with her."

"What! Why was Elena even there? How did she get her in the tomb?" Bonnie was freaking out.

"I don't know how or why but I just left. I'm going to Jeremy's to tell him. Meet me there?" He asked.

"Yeah, I'll be there in 15 minutes I just have to get my grimoires." Bonnie said already picking them up. "See you there."

O

After a half an hour of trying to figure out a way to get Elena out the only plan was for Bonnie to incapacitate Katherine. The only way for that to work though would be if Katherine were near the front of the tomb and Elena to be able to run out in 10 seconds. It didn't sound like a very good plan to Jeremy.

"Just let me do it. I could run in there when Katherine's sleeping or something and grab Elena and run out." It sounded like a good plan to him.

"No. Jeremy, no way! That's way to dangerous you could get killed!" Bonnie wouldn't hear of it. She wanted to do whatever she could to keep him out of it.

"I have my ring!"

"Yea and so did John. What happened to his fingers? Katherine obviously knows about the ring, she could rip it off your finger in a second." Bonnie said right back to him.

"Stop, you guys' bickering isn't going to help anything." Stefan interrupted them. "We need a real plan. I think I'll try Damon again."

Stefan dialed Damon's number and it rang four times before Damon answered.

"What now?" Damon said sounding annoyed.

"Katherine has Elena in the tomb." Stefan said cutting right to the chase.

"What?! Stefan you were supposed to watch her!" Stefan could hear him putting on clothes through the phone.

"Where are you?" Stefan asked.

"Home. I'm guessing you're at Elena's house with little Gilbert and Judgey witch. I'm on my way." Stefan closed the phone. "Damon will be here soon."

O

Elena woke up with a headache and realized she was lying on the ground. That was odd. She wondered how she got there until she remembered. Katherine. She sat up quickly gasping.

"Sleeping beauty lives." Katherine said perched on a bench near where Elena was lying.

"What did you do to me?" Elena asked scared that Katherine had turned her.

"Nothing other than smash your head in a wall. You slept longer than I thought you would." She said as she stood up and walked over to Elena.

Elena was relieved that she was okay. Then she realized she was alone in the tomb with Katherine. That was not good.

"What do you want?" Elena asked looking right at Katherine.

"I hate this tomb Elena. I'm bored, and starved." She said with a little gleam in her eye. "Your boyfriends are going to let me out of here to get you back."

"No. They won't let you out ever. Even to get me." Elena said thinking she was speaking the truth.

"I know them a little better than you. They will do anything to get you back."

Katherine stood up and started pacing. Elena stood up and sat on a bench. After pacing for two minutes Katherine sped over to Elena and ripped her vervain necklace off.

"I have a question and you better answer truthfully Elena. Do you have vervain in your blood today?" Katherine wasn't compelling Elena, rather persuading her to tell the truth.

"I don't know. I can't remember if I put some in my coffee this morning." That was a lie, Elena knew she hadn't she just wanted to avoid Katherine's fangs as long as she could.

"Let's test it out, shall we?" Katherine said grabbing Elena's face and turning it so their eyes were level.

"Take this stake and stab yourself in the stomach." She compelled Elena giving her a stake she found on the ground.

Elena looked shocked at Katherine's request but couldn't control her arms. Even though her brain was telling them to stop, her arms moved the stake in front of her stomach and plunged it in.

"AAGRUAG!" Elena screamed.

"Looks like you can be compelled. That's a good sign!" Katherine said before biting into her wrist and shoving it in Elena's mouth. "Can't have you dying on me or I'll never be free."

O

Damon and Stefan were walking through the woods to the tomb together. They were going to scout out the situation before Bonnie did anything.

"I can't believe you left her alone with her Stefan." Damon said still pissed at his brother.

"I had to go and figure out a way to get her out." Stefan tried to defend himself.

"Do you know all the things Katherine could have done to her by now? She's been alone with her for almost two hours!"

"Yes I know Damon! Thanks for making me feel guiltier than I do already." Stefan said looking as guilty as he felt.

"You're welcome." Damon said before they heard Elena scream even from the distance they were at.

O

Katherine had only taken one pull from Elena's neck before the Salvatore's showed up. Probably attracted by the annoying screams.

"Don't move. Don't say a word." She said compelling Elena.

"Welcome!" Katherine said to Stefan and Damon when she walked as far as she could to the front of the tomb.

"Katherine what do you want?" Damon asked not playing her games.

"I know one thing I don't want." She said holding up a finger, "to be in this tomb!" She smiled at them.

"Yea I knew you would say that." Stefan said rolling his eyes at her. "Too bad that's the one thing we can't give you, Bonnie can't do that spell alone."

"Want your precious Elena back? Then find another witch." She said retreating into the back of the tomb.
