Hey guys! I was actually going to post this yesterday but STUPID WINTER STORM NEMO KNOCKED OUT MY POWER! I had no internet until like an hour ago. SO HERE'S CHAPTER 12!
Chapter 12
Stefan and Katherine walked right up to the door. Damon watched and chuckled when they bounced off the barrier. They didn't know about Jenna owning the house.
"Hello Stefan, Katherine, so nice of you to join us." He said. He was pissed that they even showed their faces.
"Damon, what the hell is going on?" Stefan asked him.
"Well, someone kidnapped Elena and compelled Bonnie and we have no idea who it was. We felt the need to protect Jenna, Jeremy and Bonnie from whoever it was." Damon said in reply.
Stefan's jaw had dropped when he heard about someone kidnapping Elena. .
"When did this happen?" Stefan asked him.
"Last night. So what have you been up to?" Damon asked him.
"Katherine and I were trying to keep Klaus away from Elena." Stefan said looking over to Katherine. She was staring at the three people on the couch with a smirk.
"Oh yea! Forgot to tell you, he was here yesterday!" Damon said to him.
Katherine let out a gasp and looked around her like she expected him to be right there. Stefan's worry lines on his forehead deepened.
"Do you think Klaus took her?" Stefan asked.
"You know Stefan, you are pissing me off. The last time we spoke you told me that it wasn't worth the risk to save Elena. Now you're asking all these questions like I'm going to trust you to help me find her! No thank you, goodbye." Damon said and slammed the door in Stefan's face.
"Damon! This is my house too!" Stefan called to him.
"Sucks now doesn't it." Damon said back.
He pulled out his phone and quickly found John's number. Changes of plans don't come to my house. I'll meet you at the grill. He texted him. Okay. John replied.
He ran into the kitchen and grabbed a paper and pen. He wrote a note on it and handed it to Jenna.
I'm going to go meet John at the Grill. Don't invite them in no matter what they say.
Jenna nodded and he left.
Damon ran to the Grill and saw Alaric sitting at the end of the bar. He walked over and sat beside him.
"Damon! Have you seen Jenna? I haven't heard from her and she hasn't been home." He said once Damon sat down.
"Yea. She's staying at my house with Jeremy and Bonnie. We told her about vampires and it seemed like she was safer there." Damon said.
"Wait, when did you tell her about vampires?" Alaric asked.
"Yesterday. Elena asked me to. Speaking of Elena, she's been kidnapped." Damon whispered to Alaric. He felt that he needed to know.
"What by who?" He urgently whispered back.
"We have no idea." Damon said, "You could go to my house, but my brother and the 500 year old slut are staking it out."
"Why did you leave then? They could hurt them!" Alaric said standing up.
"No, we signed the deed of the house over to Jenna so they can't get in." Damon said. Alaric sat back down but just then Damon saw John walk back into the bar. "You might want to leave now Ric. Your biggest fan just walked in and I need to talk to him." Damon said.
Alaric looked over and saw John. A look of disgust crossed his face. He drank the last of his drink and left the Grill, passing John on his way out.
John came and sat down next to Damon. "Damon," he said, "What's with the change of plans?"
"Well, my brother was off somewhere with Katherine for the past week and we don't know where they were. They just came back today and they can't get into the house because I had Jenna sign the deed. They're pissed and I think Katherine hates you." Damon said and pointed to John's gloved hand.
"Well, since we are here I will tell you how to kill an original, I won't be able to show you." John said and Damon nodded for him to go on, "There is a dagger made by a witch. If you dip it into ash from an ancient tree and stab them with it, it will kill them."
"Are you serious? Do you have one?" Damon asked John. John pulled something out of his pocket wrapped in a handkerchief and handed it to Damon.
"I was originally not going to tell you this but if a vampire uses it they will die." John told Damon.
"Why the change of heart?" Damon asked him shocked.
"Well, you seem like the best chance at saving my daughter. If you die when trying to save her that won't do her much good would it?"
"Thanks John." Damon said and he left the Grill.
O
Elena sat in the corner of the room with her arms around her knees. She was petrified. It was just now catching up to her that she would probably be dead in less than a week.
Elena heard the door upstairs open and two people coming down the stairs. She knew that it was Elijah and Klaus. She started hyperventilating. When she heard the deadbolt unlock she stopped breathing completely.
The door swung open and she saw Elijah and another man. He was the same height as Elijah and was dressed all in black. His hair was dirty blonde and there was coldness in his light eyes. When he saw Elena a look of pure joy crossed his face. He walked over to her and kneeled down in front of her.
Elena backed away from him and he just stared at her. "After 500 years. Thank you Elijah." He said turning back to him.
He looked back at Elena, "I hope you aren't as foolish as Katerina to try to run. I'll do the same thing to you as I did to her if you do."
"Wha- what did you do to her?" Elena asked him petrified scooting away again.
He smirked at her and whispered, "I slaughtered her entire family. It was quite fun. Did the same thing to most of my own also."
He laughed at the look on her face. When he stood up he patted her on the head and walked out with Elijah right behind him. Right before Elijah closed the door he looked back at Elena. She saw pity in his eyes.
And then he closed the door and Elena was in darkness again.
O
Katherine and Stefan were gone. Damon didn't know where they went but he was glad.
John was at his house now. Jeremy and Jenna were completely ignoring him.
Ric was there too. He wanted to come help when Damon went to get Elena. He was going to be the one to dagger Elijah.
Bonnie had found that her witch friends were in the woods six hours away. Damon said they could make it in five if they drove fast enough.
They were getting ready now. Damon had decided that it would only be Ric and him going. They were the most durable of anyone. Jeremy had given Ric his ring for tonight's attack. Alaric was packing a huge bag of weapons to use when they got there.
"How are we going to over power Elijah? It took both you and Stefan last time." Alaric asked Damon.
"We have the element of surprise. He has no idea we have the dagger." Damon said putting the last of his vervain darts in a gym bag. "You ready?"
Alaric nodded and walked into the living room to say goodbye to Jenna. Bonnie walked over to Damon. She handed him a piece of paper. "That's Luka's dog tag. Once you kill Elijah you should probably give it back to him so he knows you know me. "
"Thanks Bonnie." Damon said sincerely. That just might save their lives.
When Alaric came back out of the living room Damon and him made their way to the car. They got in and prepared for a long drive.
O
Elena woke up when she heard a large bang from upstairs. She didn't know when she had fallen asleep; there was no way for her to tell time down here.
There were sounds of struggling upstairs and then Elena heard someone come down the staircase again. She backed farther into the corner and tried to make herself look as small as possible.
Whoever was at the door didn't have a key. They pounded on the door and pulled on the handle on the outside until Elena heard it pop off.
"Elena?" She heard Damon's voice from the other side of the door.
"Damon!" Elena exclaimed.
"Stand away from the door. I'm going to push it in so you can get out." He said.
Damon started pushing on the door. It took about 30 seconds until the deadbolt's lock broke.
When the door pooped off the hinges light rushed into the tiny room and Elena saw Damon on the other side. Before she even realized what she was doing Elena was in Damon's arms hugging him.
"You saved me again. Thank you, thank you Damon." She said with her face pressed into his shoulder. Damon was in shock for a moment before he wrapped his arms around Elena also.
"We should get you out of here Elena." Damon said. She nodded with her head still pressed against him. Then she remembered what Klaus had told her he would do if she tried to get away.
"Damon he was here. Klaus was here. He said that of I tried to run he would kill my entire family. Damon, I can't let him hurt anyone!" She said looking up into his face.
"Don't worry Elena. I'll keep everyone safe."
"But how?" She asked him, finally breaking the hug and wiping a tear from her eye.
"Jenna is the legal owner of my house now. No one can get in unless she invites them." He said, "Bonnie is going to help too."
Elena just stood there looking at him still.
"He doesn't even know where you live Elena." Damon said.
She seemed to be having a battle with herself in her head. A worried look crossed her face.
"Elena, if Klaus was here we need to leave now." He said.
Elena nodded again but this time she started walking out of the basement. Damon led the way upstairs. Once they got upstairs Elena saw Elijah on the ground with a dagger through his heart. Alaric was standing beside him.
"Ric? What are you doing here?" She asked him.
"A human needed to dagger him for him to die." He said to her.
"Better be taking this." Damon said and he pulled the dagger out of Elijah's chest.
"Well, let's go then." Damon said, and they walked out of the house.
O
Six hours later Elena, Damon and Alaric were walking into the boarding house. Elena saw Jeremy and Jenna in the living room and ran to the immediately. They all hugged and Damon went downstairs to the basement to get a blood bag.
Bonnie was down there standing outside the vervain cellar.
"Bonnie what are you doing?" Damon asked from behind her. She jumped and turned around.
"I can't go in! I went to go get some for Jenna and Jeremy to put in tea and I can't go in!" She said distressed.
"Might be from the compulsion." He said and turned around to the blood cooler.
"Were Jonas and Luka there?"
"Nope, you can have the dog tag back." Damon said and threw the package it was in to Bonnie. "Did Stefan or Katherine cause any problems while we were gone?"
"No. Didn't hear anything from either of them." She said. "It must be the compulsion." She murmured to herself. Damon decided that was a good time for him to go upstairs.
"You need to rest Elena." Damon said to her when he came upstairs.
Elena looked at him and nodded. She squeezed Jenna's hand before she stood up and made her way upstairs.
"Damon is she okay? She wouldn't tell us anything." Jenna whispered to him when she was out of earshot.
"She met Klaus and he scared her really bad. He told her against running by threatening you two." Damon told them.
"So she didn't want you to take her back?"
"She did and she didn't. She wanted to get away from him but she didn't want you to get hurt. She only came once I promised to keep you safe." Damon said to Jenna.
"She's been through a lot. All she needs now is rest."
O
Elijah woke up angry and confused. What had happened? He stood up and looked around. The door was off its hinges. He didn't hear a heartbeat coming from downstairs.
He dashed down to the basement and saw that door was off its hinges too. He cursed to himself. He raced back upstairs and saw that Klaus was sitting on the couch and had been the whole time.
"Brother, it seems we have a problem."
AHHHHHH! KLAUS IS GOING TO BE SO MAD! I HOPE YOU LIKED THIS! PLease review!
