Katherine's Downfall
Damon stands in front of me, frowning.
"What? It could work!" I protested
"Elena, even if you do figure out her weakness, then what? How do you know she'll believe you?" he asked me? I shrugged. I hadn't figured that out yet. "Have you told Stefan your brilliant plan?"
"No, I don't want him to know because then he'd never leave me alone," I said. He sighed.
"Look, Elena, even if it did work, then what? You're still in danger. She can act like she's hurt and when you let your guard down, then she'll attack," he said and started to pace. I bit my lip.
"But I won't let my guard down! Why do you guys think I'm not capable of it?" I asked him. He spun around.
"Because you're not! You're only a human. Your strength doesn't even begin to match a vampire's. You need to seriously think about what you're doing, Elena," he said. I snort.
"Since when are you concerned about danger?" I asked. He appeared in front of me before I could blink.
"Since it's your life," he said quietly. I sat there, froze.
"Look, if it'll make you feel any better, you can come with me again. But, I'm doing this. Are you in?" I asked hopefully. He stared into my eyes and I stared right back at him.
"Fine," he said finally. I smile. He sat down next to me. "What exactly did you have in mind?"
"I was hoping you would have something," I admitted. He looked thoughtful, which, for Damon, is rare.
"I don't know," he said after a while. "But, I think there's one thing that hits home with her."
"What is it?" I asked. He looked at me.
"Her death," he said quietly.
I know that it's shorter than the others, but the whole point of this chapter was for them to find one of Katherine's weaknesses. Rather her death is a weakness or not, I'm not sure. I decided to make it that so she had a weakness. Enjoy!
