Chapter 3
*flashback*
"I want the girl, Damon. Bring her to me."
"What's so special about this girl anyway Klaus?" Damon asked Klaus curiously through the phone, trying anything to understand the tinniest piece of Klaus' plan. There was a silence from the other end of the line. "Klaus?" Damon asked, making sure he hasn't been hung up on.
A cocky chuckle filled Damon's ears.
"You'll know when you lay eyes on her." Klaus replied simply after his short chuckle. Damon sighed in frustration "can you at least tell me what you want with a petty human? Big bad vampire like you wouldn't simply want a girl for her looks... What are you up to Klaus?" Damon smirked waiting for an answer.
"Well I thought you would of already figured that one out Damon, but if you must know." Klaus paused for dramatic effect, "I'm going to kill her. And if you don't bring her to me, then you will never get Katherine back. Understood?"
Damon frowned at the thought of taking a girl and handing her over to Klaus just to be killed. He'd always hated what he'd become… having to sacrifice all these lives, he never asked to be like this, never asked to live forever... Well yea... He had wanted to when he was with Katherine, but that was for love, when she was dragged into that church back in 1864 he didn't want to live. But now all he had to do to get her back was hand over a puny human. A life for a life.
"Understood?" Klaus asked again impatiently
"understood." Damon answered robotically "who exactly am I looking for?"
"Get ready to go home to mystic falls Damon," Klaus smirked "you're looking for Elena gilbert." With that he hung up leaving Damon stunned.
Mystic falls? Damon hadn't been home since his 'uncle' Zachariah's funeral back in 1912. I wonder what it's like now… has it changed much? He thought as he slid his phone back in his back pocket, making made his way to his car.
*end flashback*
"Who where you texting earlier?" Elena asked in curiosity, she was still sitting on the sofa, her knees tucked securely under her.
"Again with your nosey questions?" Damon mocked, making Elena roll her eyes in response. It was strange how comfortable she felt around him, given the fact that he had kidnaped her not even 12 hours ago and is now keeping her hostage in a cottage out of town.
"Would you rather the silent treatment then?" Elena spat back at him. "Fine, fine." Damon chuckled, immensely enjoys her frustration. "It was my brother, he's on his way to help."
"Help with what?" Elena eyed him suspiciously, she watched as he stood and made his way back to the kitchen and hoisted himself up onto the counter top.
"Klaus control." He replied after a minute or two. "You need to disappear Elena, to somewhere Klaus can't find you... Because if he finds you..." his voice trailed off, seeing in her facial expression she got the gory picture.
"What does Klaus want with me?" her voice was now shaky.
Damon shrugged "I couldn't get it out of him…"
Damon jumped a little feeling his phone vibrating in his back pocket, he jumped off the counter top and slipped it out of his pocket. A frown instantly appeared across his flawless features as he looked at the caller ID. He raised his index figure to his lips in a shushing motion "be as quiet as you can if you know what good for you."
With that he pressed answer on the phone and brought it to his ear. "Klaus, how are you buddy? Long-time no se-"before he could finish he was rudely interrupted by an impatient Klaus "cut the crap Damon. Where is she, I expected you at our meeting spot an hour ago!" Klaus was practically screaming now.
Damon put on the best fake chuckle as he could "well… here's the thing Klaus, there has been a slight change of plans…" he trailed off
"Change of plans? What are you doing Damon we had a deal! The girl for Katherine!" Klaus spat out at him
"Why didn't you tell me about the resemblance Klaus?" Damon said flatly
"You were bound to figure it out at some point, I mean you're not blind are you Damon? Look if you bring me the girl right now at our meeting spot I will spare you your life, I still might even let you have Katherine as a mere gesture of kindness"
"Small problem with that plan Klaus" Damon replied with no emotion in his voice.
"And what might that small problem be Damon?" Klaus said trying to control his voice.
"The problem is Klaus, is that I'm not giving her to you" with that Damon pulled the phone from his ear, Elena could hear Klaus screaming through the phone about some deal before Damon ended the call.
A deal? What kind of deal did Damon make with Klaus? I'll have to ask him that later she thought then turned her attention back to Damon whose mouth was now set in a firm line. His anger stricken face staring straight at her.
"Bed" he said simply
"But it's only noon?" she replied in protest.
Damon ran up to her at an inhuman speed, grabbed hold of her arm and was now dragging her to the door slightly open she saw earlier. He shoved her into the room so that she landed face first on the double bed, he stood in the door way and watched her sluggishly pull herself up until she was sitting on the corner of the bed.
"When I say something. You do it. No 'buts' a protesting what so ever. Got it?" he said sternly waiting for her answer, and when she didn't he repeated himself impatiently. "Got. It?"
"Y-yes Damon…" she stumbled her words. What happened to the Damon from 5 minutes ago? The one who was just being to nice to me? Has He just been replaced but this cold, disconnected… obviously cruel creature? Shethought
A smug smile spread across his face.
"Good. You'll stay in this room until I tell you so. Got it?" he stood at the door way awaiting an answer.
"yes Damon" she replied shortly
"Good" with that he slammed the door shut leaving Elena stunned. God his mood swings are giving me whiplash she thought, slamming her head back against one of the pillows, left in the is this boring room staring at the celling.
