Know Thy Enemy PT2

Damon, Bonnie, Thalia and Jeremy arrive at an old, abandoned house.

"Is this the spot Emily Bennett was killed, too?" Jeremy asked, clearly creped out by the scene before him.

"Founders thought it was poetic burning her where the other witches burned." Damon answered with a slightly disgusted look on his face.

Intrigued Bonnie decided to ask, "How do you know where the witches were burned?"

"'Cause I tried to save her." Damon started, calmly which then turned to mockery as he said "Emily was just my key to getting Katherine back before I knew what a nasty little bitch Katherine was."

Thalia and Jeremy laugh at that remark, soon they reached the front of the abandoned house, all secretly regretting coming her but they had work to do.

"You sure it's the right place?" Jeremy asked unconvinced.

Damon nods. They entered the house quietly and walk around. They walk past a ray of sunshine but when Damon tries to walk through it he suddenly is unable to move.

"Whatever witchy prank you're playing, don't. It's not funny." Damon looked accusingly towards Bonnie.

" I'm not doing anything." Bonnie defended.

"I can't move." Damon announces through gritted teeth. All of a sudden his skin starts to burn, and Damon starts panting in pain. "Oh, my ring's not working. Do something." Bonnie closes her eyes and concentrates on trying to free Damon, after a while Damon can move again, he moves away from the light and tries to catch his breath as his wounds heal themselves.

"I don't think the witches like you being here." Bonnie assumed.

"I guess this is the right place." Jeremy declared, completely convinced that this was the right place.

" I'm gonna go wait outside." Damon announces yet again through gritted teeth, while he slightly advances towards the door.

"I'll go with you. Last time I encountered witches they tried to kill me" Thalia began and with all the confused looks she got she decided to add, "I'm not very good at making friends" and with that she walked towards the entrance with Damon closely following.

Time skip

Damon and Thalia are waiting outside the house.

Thalia started getting restless a while ago and that resulted into her doing multiple cartwheels, flips and other gymnastic type stunts.

"Wanna hurry it up in there? Thalia is getting restless"

The door closes and Damon is stood there extremely angry, Thalia stopped her stunts to laugh at and then continued.

"Screw you too, Emily. You know, you're all on your own in there." Damon shouted he then walked towards Thalia and pulled her along until they were gone from the place.

Lockwood's mansion

Thalia and Damon arrive at the mansion after getting a call from Elena about Isobel showing up, as they enter they notice that everyone is leaving, and Carol tries to inform everyone that he is going to be ok. "I'm sorry for the scare. It was just a bad fall. Paramedics are on their way."

After everybody has left she sees Damon and Thalia standing in the back of the room and she walks towards them. At first with her worried state she doesn't realise that Thalia is there.

"Hey. How is he?" Damon asked, fake concern across his face.

"He's dead." The sheriff informed them, she too did not notice Thalia at first. Thalia was getting very used to not getting noticed in this town. Far better than having people looking up to as if I know every answer in the world worth knowing, and having them follow me around. She thought.

Damon looked at John's hand, he wasn't sure if he was angry at the fact that he was wearing his ring but he sure as hell wasn't happy either. "He'll be fine in a couple hours." He admitted, much to everyone else's surprise, except for Thalia who had been told about the ring before.

"What are you talking about? Damon, he's dead." And then she noticed some movement besides Damon and her eyes fixed on a petit young girl of around 18-19. "And who is this?" she asked, looking towards Thalia.

"Oh, hi, I'm Thalia, a friend of Stefan's" Thalia answered her second question reaching her hand out to Carol to shake and then the sheriff who only just noticed Thalia after Carol had pointed her out, while Damon went on to answer her first.

"Well... Here's the thing. John's ring, it's an old Gilbert family heirloom that protects its owner from death by a supernatural entity." Damon tried to explain in the shortest way possible.

"But he's not breathing. He has no pulse." Carol retaliated.

"He will be. Trust me. We're gonna need a cover story... epileptic fit, alcohol binge, banana peel, whatever works. But right now I just have to get him out of here." Damon assured.

"The banana peel one is certainly my favourite" Thalia added, while Damon picked up John's limp body and walked out with Thalia following him.

Carol and the sheriff both looked at each other before sighing.

Salvatore's house

Damon and Thalia both walk in the house, Damon in front he then dumped John's body on the ground. After looking at himself and seeing he is covered in blood he tells Thalia he is going to the bathroom to wash up while Thalia says she's going to the kitchen to get something to eat.

While in the bathroom Damon's phone rings, he quickly dries his hands and takes his shirt off. He then answers the phone knowing its Stefan.

"Stefan? How'd I beat you and Elena home? What?" he starts but then realises the moonstone has been taken away from the soap bowl. Katherine, he thought.

He quickly told Stefan to come home quick and he'll explain what happened. Damon explained what happened with the moonstone and they both thought the same thing, they both grab Thalia (who was in the middle of making a sandwich) and run out the door in hopes of finding Isobel's house, with Thalia muttering behind them about not being able to eat her sandwich.

Isobel's house

All three arrive at the house, with Thalia still pissed off at the fact she never got to eat her sandwich.

"Think this is the house?" Stefan asked

"Better be. It's the nicest foreclosure in town." Damon responded.

"Swear to God if she's not here..." "gods" Thalia interrupted.

"Don't be such a pessimist." Damon continued after Thalia's interruption.

They entered the house and Stefan decides to go check upstairs with Thalia checking out the rest of the house with Damon. Nobody is in the house apart from them but the three of them, Thalia and Damon found Isobel's bags so she must have been here. Stefan soon rejoins them after scoping out the upstairs.

"This is Isobel's stuff. It's definitely the right place." Damon Told Stefan

"Where are they?" Stefan asked.

"I don't know, Stefan." Damon said, they both looked at Thalia who uncharacteristically quiet still looking incredibly pissed off.

"Sorry about dragging you away before you got a chance to eat your sandwich Thalia" Stefan apologised, to which Thalia responded with "You should be" and despite their current situation Damon let out a snort, and soon after they left the house.

Salvatore's house

Elena is standing in the Salvatore house holding Isobel's necklace.

"Is that Isobel's?" Stefan asked softly.

"I never thought I would feel bad about her being dead and yet..." Elena was unable to carry on her sentence in fear of bursting out crying for a woman who she thought never cared for her.

"She was your mother." Stefan tried his best comfort her.

"Why did they let me go?" She asked completely confused as to why they'd let her go. It just doesn't make sense.

"Well, anything John told Isobel, we have to assume that Klaus knows, right? So he knows that you're not gonna turn yourself into a vampire. He knows that you have us keeping you safe."

There it is again, that name, Klaus. Thalia thought. Why do I feel like I should know this name? The other three continued on with their conversation while Thalia tried t place this mystery man's name. She only came back to reality when she realised that Damon and Stefan are giving deed to their house to Elena.

"What's this?" Elena asked.

"It's the deed to our house. It's in Zach's name. As soon as you sign it, it'll be in your name." Stefan explained. Thalia observed the conversation closely.

"You're giving me your house?" Elena asked, still confused as to why they were giving her their house.

"Isobel had the right idea with the safe house. You'll just stay here till it's all over. That way, you can control who gets invited and who doesn't." Stefan concluded.

"Although I'll be super pissed if you lock me out." Damon tried to add some humour into the atmosphere, to which Thalia smiled at.

They hear the sounds of John gasping for air. Damon used his vampire speed to rush to John and grab him by the shirt.

"I swear I had no idea what she was gonna do. I'm sorry. I'm so, so sorry." John cried.

"Damon, let him go. He and I need to talk." Elena managed to get out.

Time skip

Stefan, Thalia and Damon step out to let Elena and John talk privately, much against both boy's wishes but Thalia managed to drag them out.

"I always knew that she and Katherine were close, but I never realized that Isobel and her were working against me. Two of the world's most uncaring and selfish vampires, and yet they were genuinely friends." John told Elena

"If that's what you thought of her, why did you ever put your trust in her at all?" Elena asked.

"Because I was there when she gave birth to you, Elena. I saw how heartbroken she was to give you up. And because she was the first girl I ever loved, and when she said she'd help keep you safe... I believed her. At this point, I will do whatever you want me to do. If you feel safer with me not around, then I'll go." John pleaded.

Elena didn't answer, and so John looking sad stood and made to leave.

"You screw up everything, John. Everything you touch just falls apart. But you're the only parent I have left so maybe I can learn not to hate you." Elena spoke.

"Okay." John smiled. Well at least it's a start.

"Now about that girl..." John started to talk about Thalia

Damon, Stefan and Thalia are in the library, Thalia is once again attempting to read the same book as before, but thanks to her dyslexia she is only a couple of pages in, including the ones from the morning.

"Hey, Bonnie said the spell worked. She's locked and loaded." Damon noted

"At least something went right today. Katherine has no idea that Bonnie got her powers back and Isobel had no idea what you, Thalia and Jeremy took Bonnie to do today. We're the only ones who know." Stefan was genially happy about these news.

"That literally makes Bonnie our secret weapon." Damon concluded.

Damon and Stefan both raised their glasses of scotch and clinked them together, while Thalia let out a whoopee for celebration.

Alaric's Apartment

Katherine wakes up and sees the warlock casting a spell on someone sitting in a chair. There are two vases. One is full of blood; the other is empty and knocked over on its side. She starts to get up and sees that Elena's necklace is gone. It's Alaric that is in the chair. He opens his eyes and gets up. The warlock bends down in a bow.

"Alaric?" Katherine asks.

She decides to make a run for it and rushes to the door, but it's locked with magic which means she is trapped. Alaric then stands up from the chair and walks to Katherine.

"Zdravei, Katerina." Alaric greets. He takes her face in his hands and says, "I have missed you".

"Klaus!" Katherine exclaimed.

By the way, it is very hard to compel a demigod sometimes it doesn't work if say a vampire who drank animal blood were to compel them, so it would work at all, you would have a bigger chance if you were a vampire who drank human blood but still did not always works But since Klaus is an original he has a much bigger chance to compel a demigod but as Thalia has shown us it is not completely fool proof and that is why Thalia can sort of remember him, Klaus did not know Thalia was a demigod and still doesn't. Just thought I should tell you. :) please review on what you think, and tell your friends about this fic, and tell your friends-friends, even people you don't like because when I get a message tell me some has favourite, followed or reviewed it makes want to finish it even sooner.
