A/N: Sorry for the wait. Just been pissed off at TVD and the writers for the crap they're pulling on the show. I havent watched it in weeks but I promised an update and here it is : )


Lucy groaned as she attempted to walk with the heavy weight of Mason pressing into her small frame. He stumbled over the ground and clutched her shoulder harder; causing her to hiss in pain. She felt him stop immediately and turn his blue eyes to her face, a look of concern in his eyes.

"I'm hurting you." He said, not much of a question but she replied with a shake of her head anyways. He laughed humorlessly, "Yes I am, Lucy. Stop acting like you can basically carry me to wherever you're trying to take me. I'm three times your size and since I attacked you earlier you're in no shape to..."

"Just be quiet, Mason!" She exclaimed, draping her arm around his waist again as she pulled him along with her. "I'm fine. You're not hurting me. We need to get you somewhere safe so you can heal before we find out what Klaus has done with the others...with Bonnie and Damon..."

Mason snorted, "You're not my girlfriend anymore you can't tell me what to do!" He pushed away from her; stumbling, before falling into the grass with a thump. He turned onto his back and groaned in pain before meeting Lucy's unamused eyes with a smirk. "We're in the middle of nowhere. I doubt they will find us here. Plus seeing a bloody woman carrying around a half naked dirty man is going to attract so many people. Might as will make camp here."

The witch ran a hand through her hair in frustration before crossing her arms to stare down at him, "Were you this much of a douchebag when we dated? God...you are just so...you don't listen!" She yelled, throwing her arms up. "I barely survived your werewolf attacks and thought I nearly killed you when I finally turned you back to normal. You need to get to a bed...hospital...something!"

That smug look never left Mason's face. "Worried?"

"Shut up!"

"Look," He sat up, resting on his elbows as he winced in pain. "I almost killed you, Lucy...and despite it all...everything that we've been through and I know you hate my guts...if you would've died at my hands..."

"It wasn't your hands, it was your paws. And it was all that bitch Greta's fault." Lucy interrupted sharply. "We're alive. I'm alive. We need to get going. So get up and wrap your arms around me so we can get you somewhere safe so I can think of a way to help the others..."

Mason chuckled, "You Bennetts are so much alike. You sound like Bonnie right now. You can't save everyone, Lucy. Witch or not...you're only human." He watched as she visibly shook at that before coming to sit next to him. "You just gotta trust that the others will be fine. Stefan, Caroline, Tyler..." His eyes went sad at the mention of his nephew. "They...they'll be fine."


Damon didn't know how this happened. First Bonnie pulled him in for a kiss then the next thing he knew they were in the shower naked...together. He knew she never been with anyone at all. He wondered if she even ever held hands with a guy let alone made out with one like this. Sure she was hesitant about it. He could tell by the way her hands shook as they caressed his chest; the way she shivered away when he tried to pull her closer. This was wrong, it wasn't the right time. She wanted to feel safe and she figured it was his body that could do that.

"Bonnie..." He pulled away as she attempted to nibble on his lower lip, the water splashing down on both their heads. "Stop." He wanted to sound affirmative but it came out as a plea. Since when did Damon Salvatore beg? Especially to a seventeen year old girl? He opened his eyes and looked down to take in her body. Yeah...she was not just a little girl. "We need to stop. This isn't right." He hated being the voice of reason.

Bonnie blinked up at him in shock, "Wait..what? You wanna stop?" She asked, confused. "For the first time I'm not fighting you...you wanna stop?"

He rolled his eyes. He sucked at this stuff. "You'd hate me forever if I had sex with you now. And though you won't live forever...I will. Can't live with that on my conscience." He watched as she wiped her wet hair behind face before sending him a death look. "Give me that look all you want but I'm not doing this. Sex isn't the answer and you know that." Before he could react, she magically pushed him aside before jumping out the shower. She didn't bother to grab a towel as she walked out the bathroom. He groaned and yelled after her, "You seriously cannot be mad at me about this!"

"Don't talk to me!" He heard her reply.

He tried not to laugh at her brattyness, knowing that'll piss her off some more. "Get some rest, Bonnie. In the morning you'll thank me..."

"I liked it better when I was trying to kill you instead of trying to fuck you!" She retorted angrily. "At least then you would let me try and do it!"

Ok that hit a spot. He quickly left the shower and joined her in the room where she was hastily throwing on some shorts and a shirt. His eyes roamed her body before stopping on her angry face. She was still really beautiful even if she wanted to set him on fire, "Ok I'm gonna need Badass Bamf Bonnie Bennett to come back because right now I cannot deal with hormonal teenage Bonnie."

She bit her bottom lip before sighing, "Fine. I'll go to bed. In the morning we'll think of a plan to save our friends." She walked over to the twin size bed before collapsing onto it. Her face was in the pillow as she muttered something he couldn't quite understand.

"What was that?"

"I said," She raised her head, her dark green eyes taking in his body before looking up to his face, "Get some clothes on. I've had enough of naked Damon rubbing on me tonight and since you don't wanna pull through then you need to be decent." Bonnie planted her head back in the pillow, ignoring his chuckles.


Elijah sat back as he watched his brother who was now talking to Stefan. It took a huge toll on Klaus when he felt that Greta was dead but somehow that misery made him even more stronger. Elijah ignored Rebekah's accusing eyes as he watched his brother grab Stefan roughly by the shoulder, causing the younger vampire to wince.

"We are going to play a little game, Stefan." Klaus grinned, his face darker than the Salvatore has ever seen. "You are going to bring me the Bennett witch. And every hour that goes by that she is not here with me." He stopped and stood back from a worried Stefan before turning his attention to the Gilbert girl who was tied onto the dining room table. Stefan's throat went dry as he paled at the image. "She will get this." Klaus pulled out a knife that caused Elena's eyes to widen in fear. "Shh, now." He said as he dragged the blade lightly down her cheek before bring it down to her collarbone then stabbing it roughly in her chest. Elena cried out and tried to shoot up for the chains around her wrists wouldn't allow her to move.

Stefan quickly reacted but before he could reach Klaus, Rebekah caught him around the neck and squeezed it tightly. "I wouldn't do that, Stefan." She warned, her eyes dark. "Now be a good boy and do as Niklaus says. This world will be a happy place if you do..."

Stefan gritted his teeth and balled up his fists as he looked over to Elena who shook her head no as tears continued to spill out her eyes. He knew she didn't want him to go back to the dark side for her but if he didn't...she'd die. And if it wasn't her then Klaus would go after Caroline or the others.

"I heard about what happened to Lexi." Klaus spoke up. His face looked sincere but his voice held anger. "You guys were the best of friends...a shame really...losing someone you love." He removed the knife from Elena's chest as she gasped in pain. "So I guess you know how I feel. See you have sweet Caroline to replace Lexi in your heart...one blonde vampire for another..." Stefan's eyes widened at the mention of Caroline. "She's like a little sister to you, isn't she?"

"Klaus..." The original heard the pleading in his voice.

"For being the ripper you sure do have a lot of love in that cold heart of yours." He continued. "Bring. Me. Bonnie."

"NO!" Elena cried out as she tried to shoot up to look at them, "Stefan, no! Don't bring him Bonnie! Stefan...please..." Klaus was soon next to her with his fist in her hair, pulling it roughly.

"Shut up, love, or I will slit your throat." He threatened darkly before letting her go to cry quietly to herself. "And if she just so happens to be with that brother of yours I want you to bring him too...I want him to see what I do to her. I want to finally show Damon that his actions have consequences. Do you understand?"

It was at times like this Stefan wished he could shut off his feelings and do whatever Klaus told him to. He owed Bonnie a lot for what he put her through those years ago and from the look in Klaus' eyes this was going to be way worse than what happened before. He had Bonnie's new family and friends. If he brought Bonnie back...

"Leave now, Stefan." Klaus ordered as Rebekah released her hold around his neck.

Stefan backed up, his eyes looking over to Elena for a brief moment before leaving.


Damon laid in the dark listening to Bonnie's soft breathing from slumber. He thinks this is the first time he's ever heard her breaths sound so calm. Especially her heartbeat, it wasn't pounding against her ribcage like it has been for the past days. Not even one nightmare was going on her head right now and he didn't know if that should worry him or not. He sat up a little and glanced down at her, moving a piece of hair back so he could stare into her face intensely.

Out like a light, he thought as he cocked his head to the side and smirked. It didn't take her long to pass out. After the little argument they had he figured it worn her out. Then again he could've worn her out a different way but there was no way he was gonna start thinking about that again because he'd mentally kill himself for passing up an opportunity like that. She was so soft; her eyes so innocent and willing. Who was he to take something so great from her? Especially at a time like this. "Fuck." he muttered, feeling himself getting all hot and bothered all over again. Why did he always wanna taint something so innocent? He looked down at Bonnie's lean body that revealed bruises and scars...then again she wasn't so innocent with the life she's had.

"Mmm..." She slowly opened her eyes before a frown appeared on her face. "What..."

Damon frowned as she quickly shot up from the bed, "What's wrong?"

"Lucy!" She exclaimed before hopping out the bed and running to go out the hotel door. She was quick and ignored his shouts as she raced down the dark street to a small path filled with tall trees. Her eyes tried to adjust to the darkness as she continued to sprint down the gravel road, her mind on a mission. "Lucy!" She shouted again and she could hear Damon shout her name before she felt strong arms around her body as they both fell to the ground.

"Ouch...what the fuck, man!" Mason cursed as him and Lucy were crushed by Damon's and Bonnie's bodies. "Get off me, Damon!"

Bonnie groaned as Damon attempted to get off her, picking her up as he did so. "Mason? Lucy? Why the hell are you guys just laying in the middle of a dirt road?"

"Why the hell are you chasing and tackling my cousin?" Lucy asked back as her and Mason attempted to get off the ground.

Damon rolled his eyes. "She was sleeping in the hotel room then all of the sudden she's running around half naked at night time screaming your name...I had to get to her before anyone else did." He glared down at Bonnie who smiled and ran into Lucy's arms. "You witches are odd. Can you just sleep without having a freaking epiphany or dream?"

Lucy glared at him from over Bonnie's shoulder as she held her cousin tightly, "Klaus found us and took the others...Mason was turned into a werewolf and nearly ripped my throat out." Bonnie looked up to her and examined her for any cuts. "I'm fine, Bonnie..."

"You're bleeding!"

Damon laughed as Mason glared at him, "Real smooth, dumb ass. Try and kill the woman you love. That'll win her back."

Mason quirked a brow at the vampire, "I know you're not trying to give me girl advice. When's the last time you had a girlfriend? The 1960's?"

"Shut up!"

"Guys," Bonnie spoke up before an argument broke out. "Let's...let's just back to the hotel room. We still do need to think of a plan..."

"You need to rest." Damon interrupted sharply, "You barely slept an hour."

Mason nodded, looking over at Lucy. "For once I agree with him. Not one of us has rested. Klaus may have the others but he's using them to have us come to him...he won't harm them until it's absolutely necessary..."

"And it is." The foursome stopped as they heard a familiar voice. Damon turned to see his brother behind him, a look of helplessness on his face. "Bonnie is coming with me."
