Chapter 19 - Fusion
Azkedelia's POV
I smiled as I walked behind Elena as she made her way into the living room. When she stopped to face me I bit my lip as I smiled brighter and gave a deceiving look with my eyes. She started to adjust herself showing she was nervous which only made me want to be more devious.
"You know Damon told me how you lied to him and betrayed his trust" I said slyly as I made my way across the room to sit on the desk.
"Well he trusts me now" she shot trying not to sound petrified and I couldn't help but laugh.
"What makes you think that?" she stood still and I could see she was holding something back. "Please enlighten me" I gestured toward her.
"He stopped you from hurting me twice already" she suddenly had a smug little look on her face.
I jumped up off the desk and took a few long strides until I was close enough for her to back away in fear.
"Saving your pathetic little life wasn't for you honey. He was making sure I didn't break my code and as far as the mocking and making fun of he was in on it and he only stuck up for you because that's the kind of man he is, the one very few people know about" I stepped closer until I was nose to nose with her. "And let's do the math. You met him a few months ago and I've known him since I was ten and envisioned him for a long time before that not to mention I am the reincarnation of his first love Amelia. So don't presume to think you know Damon, me or anything about our relationship, Got It?!" I shouted the last part. She didn't answer me which only angered me more. I grabbed her by her throat and squeezed until she began coughing. "I said do – you – got – it?!" she simply shook her head. "Good" I smirked"because what Damon and Azzie have is stronger than..." I felt a searing pain in my head causing me to let go of Elena and clutch my head. It hurt worse than most times causing me to actually scream out in pain. After a few more moments of agony the pain stopped and my breathing was uneven as I gave three large laughs as I let out my breath.
"Wow" I chuckled as I slowly stood up. "That was a lot stronger than it has been in a long time Destiny" I smirked at her. "What a rush" I gave her a simple devilish grin as I tilted my head to the side. She gave the surprised look I was waiting for.
Destiny's POV
I used my power to stop Azzie from hurting Elena causing her to clutch her head as she fell to the floor and scream out in pain. After a few moments I stopped and she let out a laugh with each short breath.
"Wow she chuckled ash she started to stand up. "That was a lot stronger than it has been in a long time Destiny" she smirked at me. I could tell by the tone in her voice that something was up. "What a rush" and as she gave me a devilish grin I remembered that it what Akelianna had said when I had used my power on her when she was dipping into black magic. I looked in Azzie's eyes and I only saw Akelianna making me shocked as hell.
"Azzie? What's wrong with you?" Damon asked as he made his way from behind all of us.
"She's not Azzie right now Damon" I spoke and he looked confused. "Look deep into her eyes" I said never taking my eyes from her. It wasn't long before Damon was across the room and examining Azzie's body. Suddenly he grabbed her from behind and held her in a headlock.
"Damon what are you doing?" Stefan went to stop him but I grabbed his hand and pulled him back.
"Why Damon I thought you were a gentleman and this doesn't seem very gentleman like to me" she said slyly.
"What the hell are you doing inside of Azzie, Kelli?" Damon asked as she struggled against him.
"Wouldn't you like to know" she chuckled.
"How long have you been possessing Azkedelia?" I asked as I took a few steps closer.
"Since 'yes Azkedelia, I trust you no matter what'" she said dramatically then chuckled as she gestured her attention to Damon.
"Do you have complete control?" I asked.
"Azzie can't see what's going on if that's what you mean" as she spoke the darkness in her eyes became even darker. It was then I noticed that she was trying to buy time. She could have gotten Damon off of her anytime she wanted and I realized she was trying to perform the impossible.
"Stefan?" I asked turning toward him. He simply looked at me and it was then I seen Elena was still here. "Do you still have the black onyx I gave you?"
"Yes"
"You need to grab that and a black marker and get back here quickly" I stated.
"You're going to ca..."
"Yes so hurry" I interrupted him and he did. I looked back to Damon and I gave him a signal he wasn't too thrilled to get. He had seen what I was about to do before and it never ended exactly well. I turned back to Elena and although I hated to admit it I needed her help right now.
"Look I know we haven't exactly gotten off on the right foot but upstairs in my room there is a black bag with a silver chain inside. Please grab the bag" she looked from over to Akelianna then back to me.
"She wasn't the one attacking you. She's being possessed and that chain is going to help me stop it" she looked between us a few more times then she took off up the stairs. Stefan came running back down with a marker in one hand and the black onyx in the other and handed them to me. I kept them hidden so Akelianna couldn't see what I might be up to.
"So Azkedelia is being possessed by her sister?" Stefan asked.
"Yeah her twin at that which is why it was probably so easy to do it. Not even the oldest of ghosts can possess someone let alone a Warren witch" I confessed quietly. Just then Elena came running down the stairs with my black bag in hand. She handed it to me and I thanked her. I looked to Stefan and gestured the bag to him. "I need you to take this chain and wrap it around Azzie's body as fast as you can. Damon already knows the drill so just make sure you wrap it good and lock it. It keeps her from being able to use her magic" I explained to him and he looked nervous at first but he put on a brave face as he walked to where Damon and Akelianna could see him.
Stefan held the bag and opened it slowly as him and Damon exchanged looks. Akelianna started to look a bit uneasy. "What have you got there?" she asked slyly and cool although I could see the fear begin to build in her eyes. Stefan quickly pulled out the chain and at vampire speed he crossed the room and both boys tied her upper half up and locked the chain around her. There was a struggle but it was completed.
"Now, sit" Damon spoke as he pushed Akelianna down into a chair "stay!" he added as him and Stefan made their way over to me as she struggled against the chains.
"We need to talk before we decide on this casting out deal" Damon said sternly.
"Look I know the few times you saw this happen it didn't pan out well for the people involved but Azzie is a strong Warren witch and I know that Akelianna won't hold on as hard because she knows it could kill her and no matter how dark Kelli ever became she would never do anything to cause Azzie's death" I explained.
"Possessing her could kill her" Damon exclaimed.
"Which is why Akelianna is not only possessing her but trying to fuse their souls together so they literally become one person with two separate personalities, but if she does that it will only be matter of time before one personality takes over for good and Akelianna thinks she can do it, so unless you want to loose Azzie I have no choice but to use the spirit cast out spell" I directed at him and I knew that he knew it was the only way we could save Azzie for the time being.
"Maybe we should get some answers out of Kelli before we cast her out" he replied.
"No she has already begun the fusion process so we have no time" I looked into Damon's eyes and I could see how unsure he was but also the fear at losing Azzie. "Azzie is strong enough to survive it Damon if she has you to feed on right afterward" I tried to reassure him.
"Do what you gotta do" he said and I nodded.
"Keep the doppleganger away. It could get messy if I'm wrong about Akelianna's will to fight" I stated to Stefan and he nodded in agreement.
"Let's go for a walk. I need to talk to you about something anyway" he said to Elena who went from looking nervous to delighted at the flip of switch. If only she knew her heart was about to be broken. After Stefan and Elena left Damon and I walked into the living room and stood in front of Akelianna. I still had the black onyx in one hand and the marker in the other.
"What are you going to do with that? Try to work a spell to stop me from succeeding?" she said in a mocked tone.
"Something like that" I replied.
"Why are you doing this Kelli?" Damon asked.
"I have my reasons"
"Which are?"
"Wouldn't you just love to know" she chuckled. Damon started to become angry.
I walked up to Akelianna before Damon could and ripped her shirt open. "Why Destiny I had no idea you felt this way" she mocked as I used the marker to start drawing a magick symbol to draw away negative spirits. First I drew Hecate's Wheel which gave Azkedelia the protection of the three aspects of the Goddess Maiden, Mother, and Crone. I next drew a seven pointed star known as an Elven star. It has a power in succeeding in victory and finally I drew a triquetra to save her mind, body and soul. When I was done I stepped back and when Akelianna looked down and saw he markings I had drawn she looked up to me in disbelief.
"You're seriously going to cast me out?" she looked uneasy but tried to keep a straight face. I simply nodded. "You might kill my sister!" the tone in her voice changed from deceiving to defensive and protective.
"That's what you're already doing" Damon shot and her facial expression completely did a one-eighty to where now it was full of concern and love for her sister.
"I'm not trying to kill Azkedelia. I'm going to make us one like we were always meant to be. Two halves of a whole put back together to become stronger and smarter than we ever were apart" she explained.
"Kelli you were born apart for a reason" I replied.
"But we weren't supposed to be. Whenever Azkedelia is reincarnated she is both the same soul and the doppleganger. There were never twins so technically my soul belongs attached to hers" as she was speaking I understood what she was saying, but I still didn't believe her intentions. There was a specific reason she wanted to be alive again and I flt these emotions coming from her spirit. It was full of love, but also deception. She believed what she was saying and it may have been true but I couldn't let her do this. It was unnatural and against all the laws laid down by the first and most powerful Warren witch. Also I was pretty sure that Azkedelia liked being her own person no matter how much she loved Akelianna. I played with the black onyx stone in my hand as I took a step forward.
"Come on Destiny! You know I would never do anything to hurt my sister, no matter what I had been doing before I died. Hell I died protecting her from Katherine by ppretending to be her" I took another step forward as she became more nervous. "Just let me do this. Let us be one like it was always supposed to be" her voice became panicky after I stopped directly in front of her.
"I'm sorry. I can't let you do that Kelli" I said.
"Then you'll be sorry for casting me out. If you think the dreams, visions and ghost sickness were bad just wait until I'm out and about again. You'll wish you'd let me stay!" she eclaimed and with that last word I slammed the black onyx stone over her heart and began chanting in another language.
"suflet care nu face parte te-am alungat din această nevinovat. suflet care nu face parte te-am alungat din această nevinovat" Akelianna began screaming and it became louder and louder as I continued to chant. "suflet care nu face parte te-am alungat din această nevinovat" he screams filled the entire house. I saw how much it was taking out of Azkedelia's body and I started to become afraid because I didn't expect her to actually hold on as tight as she was. "suflet care nu face parte te-am alungat din această nevinovat" I chanted again and she screamed even louder if it was even possible as white light started to come from her chest where the black onyx was touching her.
"Kelli if you don't let Azzie go then you're actually kill her and take yourself with her. I know you would never want to harm her so just let go!" Damon yelled over the screaming and Akelianna stopped to look at him as I continued to chant. "Let go Kelli or Azzie is going to die" he said in the moment that Akelianna stopped screaming and focused her attention on him. Kelli and Damon had always been close friends and hopefully it was still in effect and working in our favor.
"I just want to be whole with her again" Akelianna cried to Damon as I continued to chant.
"I know Kelli but we both know this isn't the way to go about it. Use Destiny to talk to her and we'll all figure out a way for us all to be happy, but right now you gotta just – let – go" the way he spoke to her was so soft and caring it reminded me of the Damon I had known existed all of these years. We all had our dark sides, even me, but there was just as much light mixed into it. Suddenly Akelianna looked at me, her face full of tears, and she looked scared.
I promise I'll find a way to help you do what you need to do in order to move on, but not this. I projected into her head as I continued to chant. She simply gave a nod in understanding before she let out on last scream and a dark purple mist came from Azkedelia's body. The screaming stopped as Azkedelia's body went limp and the mist disappeared, showing Akelianna was gone, at least for now. I stopped chanting and dropped the stone as I looked over Azkedelia. Within a moment I felt Damon come next to me.
"That was most definitely not Latin Destiny" he said panicked as he got the chain off of Azkedelia.
"I know. Since the chain is specifically designed for Warren witches I had to used the language written on the chain. It was the same spell though"
"So what was it?" He said more demanding as he took the last of the chain off of Azkedelia and gently laid her down on the loveseat.
"Romanian. The language used where the first Warren witch was from" I said as I sat on my knees in front of Azkedelia.
"Of course" he murmured to himself. "How is she?"
"Kelli held on harder than I thought she would so she's quite weak" I stated as I examined her. She moved her head slightly and began to groan. At the speed of light I was pushed out of the way by Damon.
"Azzie? Azzie love are you alright?" he asked as he caressed her face. Just then someone walked into the house and when I started to stand up I was helped up by Stefan who had a small spot of blood on his neck but no wound.
So that was a long dramatic chapter for our characters. Is being whole with her sister the only reason she tried to fuse their souls together her only reason for possessing Azkedelia or do you think she also had alternative motives like Destiny believed? Is Azkedelia going to be alright? And if so how will she react after being told what happened? Also how do you think Stefan and Elena's conversation went? And why does Stefan have blood on his neck? All these questions and more will be answered as the story continues. And I promise it will!
