Meredith went running back to the living room. "What is it, Meredith",Alaric asked. "It's Tyler. He's gone." "I'll be back",Damon said.
Damon went into the kitchen. He took out his cell phone and searched through the notes that were saved on it. He remembered that Bonnie had written down the name and phone number of a witch named Lucy that she had met and was somehow related to her. Finally finding the note, he called the number and prayed for someone to answer.
4 rings later, someone picked up.
"Hello?"
"Lucy Bennett?"
"Yes. Who is this?"
"It's Damon Salvatore. I'm Bonnie Bennett's boyfriend."
"A vampire. What do you want from my life?"
"I need your help. My friends have been kidnapped and I need your help to track them down."
"Why should I help you?"
"Because Bonnie was taken too."
"Alright. But I won't do it for free. What's in it for me?"
"I don't want to do this over the phone. Can you come to town so we can meet and discuss the details?"
"Where do you want to meet?"
"Mystic Grill?"
"Alright. I'm close to Mystic Falls so I'll meet you there in about an hour. See you then."
Before Damon could get another word in, she had hung up.
Damon finally reached his destination. He looked up at the orange letters on the sign above the awning. The Mystic Grill. He saw Lucy sitting under the umbrella of one of the tables, a coffee cup in her hand. He walked over to her and sat in the empty seat next to her.
"Alright vampire. What is in this deal for me?"
"Well that depends. What do you want?"
She was silent for a moment. When she finally spoke again, she said, "Get me one of the Grimoires that I know Bonnie took from the Martins."
"How do you know-"
"Witches talk, vampire. I have connections here and there. Just give me a Grimoire and I'll do your locator spell."
"Fine. But why do you want one?"
"There are a lot of spells in those books."
"Alright. Do the spell now and after I'll get you a book."
"No. You go get a book and come back here. I don't have anything else to do today, so I'll just sit here, drink my coffee, and wait."
"Fine." He got up and ran back to the house.
He had just picked out a Grimoire at random. It was a huge dark green book. He had made sure to look inside it to make sure it wasn't Emily Bennett's because he knew that Bonnie would kill him if he gave it away. The owner had written their name in the book. It was some unknown witch. When he got back to the grill, Lucy was sitting at the same table she was at before. Sitting down, he handed her a map of Virginia and one of Bonnie's rings.
"Spell first, Grimoire later",he said.
"Fine."
He then proceeded to cut his hand with a dagger and let the blood flow onto the map of Virginia. Lucy closed her eyes and Damon watched as the blood trickled down the map. It passed Mystic Falls. It went onto a remote area and stopped. Lucy opened her eyes.
"There. Done. I'll take that." She grabbed the book out of his grasp and stood up. Then, she walked away without looking back once.
The place where the blood stopped was just a little out of Mystic Falls. He knew there was an abandoned warehouse there. He carefully took a picture of the map with his phone and grabbed the piece of paper, dagger, and ring and ran as fast as his vampire reflexes could take him.
