N/A Again, so sorry this took so long! But I enjoyed writing it and, sorry, again, but this one had little Bamon! But, unfortunately, lots of Shinichi! :( But please, give it some thought and review! :D

Chapter 11


"I'm so sorry this is happening." Elena said, folding one of Bonnie's shirts and putting it on a pile. She looked up and gave Bonnie a sympathetic look. Then she glanced at the window that was just over Bonnie's left shoulder. "Are you sure you don't want me to stay the night with you?"

Bonnie was sitting on her armchair reading a book calmly, while Elena was stressing. "Yes, I'm sure." She closed her book and looked at Elena calmly. "Stefan's right outside in the trees and Damon's waiting somewhere close by for my Call in case something happens- which it won't."

Elena sighed. "I know, I know. But ... I don't know, Bonnie. I've just been-worried about you."

"About me?" Bonnie asked skeptically, like she hadn't heard right.

Elena looked away. "Yes."

"Go on."

"Well ... I don't know how to explain." Elena said. "I've already said there was danger."

"Yes, you have." Bonnie waited for Elena to say more- but she didn't. Bonnie took a deep breath. "Are you worried about me, or for me?"

Elena sighed. "Both." She looked Bonnie straight in the eyes. "You've been acting so odd lately ..."

"How so?" Bonnie asked through her teeth.

"Well," Elena started. "First of all, defending Damon after he bit you, and then getting mad at me when I wanted to stay in the room at the boarding house, and then wanting to leave right at day break and then in the washroom at school...!" Elena trailed off.

Bonnie swallowed and her eyes burned with tears. "Are you suggesting something is wrong with me?"

Elena looked hard at her. "Yes."

For some reason Elena's response made Bonnie's emotion melt into anger. Her blood boiled like it had never before and she glared at Elena. "Well, Elena," She sneered. "I think, the only reason your saying these things is because your jealous. Jealous because, for once, something doesn't revolve around perfect little Elena and you don't have two vampire brothers chasing after you, declaring themselves."

Elena's mouth was hanging open, her eyes wide. "Bonnie." She breathed. "I-I can't believe you would think that-"

Bonnie stood, still glaring at Elena, she put her book away on a shelf and turned to look out the window. "You should leave now, Elena. I'm tired."

"But, Bonnie-" Elena's voice sounded half strangled.

She turned back to the other girl with a calm and pleading expression. "Please, Elena? Okay, something's wrong with me, your right- I'm very tired. So, please, can you leave me alone, Elena?"

Elena stood and nodded, her dark blue eyes glistening with tears. She raced out of the room, closing the door behind her.

Bonnie settled into her bed, wrapping her sheets around her. She smelled the vervain strongly beside her bed- she didn't know if it would have any effect on a kitsune- but it was worth a try. She turned the lamp off and closed her eyes- for some reason drifting easily into a dream ...

She was walking around a beautiful mystical garden. Filled with purple, blue and ivory. The sky a light misty gray. She reached out to feel a blue rose, and noticed her hand.

It looked normal, with skin like a white pearl and long manicured finger nails- but it wasn't the skin underneath that shocked her, but the jewels on it. Bright green emeralds shone on her ring finger and around her wrists. She looked down at herself and found she was wearing a long Italian Renaissance gown. It was also dark green- to match the emeralds. She noticed her hair didn't fall in her face like it always did when she looked down- she reached up and felt her deep red hair carefully. It was woven in an itricate braid down her back. She also felt more jewels hanging on her head, like a crown.

Something felt wrong, though.

Yes, this was a dream. But she had never had a dream so vivid before.

She took a step, hearing the clack of high heels and raised her dress, seeing emerald green heels. She let her dress fall and kept walking, trying to hear anything past the soft

wind and the 'click, clack' of her heels.

Leaves blew around her feet and Bonnie's eyes scanned the thick bushes. She realized, as she turned a corner, that this mystical garden she thought she was in- was not a garden, but a maze.

The horror and terror was quick as it flew through her veins. Her heart beat faster and she looked around herself. Feeling the panic race through her. She picked up her long dress and ran through the maze, twisting and turning through it. She passed a stone statue of a crying angel and turned another corner, gasping.

She slipped, falling to the ground and scrapping her palms on the rough wood beneath her. She burst out crying. She heard rustling around her in the bushes behind her and stood, picking up her skirts and dashing around a corner. She kept glancing behind her, and as she turned her head back she noticed something-

A statue of a crying angel. She skidded to a stop- not believing her eyes.

She was gasping and her dress had dirt on his, pieces of dark red hair fell out of her braid and her brown eyes were swimming with tears.

She heard pursuit behind her and turned just in time to see Shinichi stop, and smile.

"Bonnie, Bonnie, Bonnie," He chanted, shaking his head and stepping towards her. "You'll never learn, will you?"

Bonnie's heart pounded against her ribs achingly. Her breathing slowed and stuttered. Her brown eyes were wide with fear.

"You can't outrun me." He said, coming closer. "And your vampires can't save you here. I created this world just for you- do you like it?"

She didn't answer, and didn't move. She knew better, now.

He smirked, stepping closer. He was so close, now. He could touch her if he wanted.

"Of course you do, I created it around you. It's your own vision, your own dream. Except my world, so I control what happens." His smile faded and his eyes grew blood red. He reached out and touched her arm.

Bonnie gasped and jerked away from him.

"Now, now." He said, his smile returning. "I just want one thing, for now. You know what that is?"

Bonnie shook her head tears falling down the side of her face.

He came closer, holding her chin gently. She didn't move.

"A kiss from your red lips, and a drop of your magic."

Bonnie's bottom lip quivered and her tears kept falling.

Shinichi touched her quivering lip with the lightest of touches. "Of course," He growled. "You have no choice."

He leaned her back with lightening fast reflexes and planted his lips against her, his tongue traced her bottom lip. Bonnie stayed perfectly still. He pulled his mouth away from hers, trailing his lips along her jaw and down the hollow of her throat.

"Now," He murmured. "Give me some of your Power, mahoutsukai."

Bonnie closed her eyes tightly. "I-I don't know how."

"Channel your Power to your throat, and close your eyes."

She did as she was told, and when she woke up in her own bed, she felt hollow and sick. And she was shaking with horror and terror.

She would tell no one of this.
