Chapter Six: Coming to an End
Maine-
Eliyah put the last of their things into the bed of the truck. She looked back to the little house. She was glad to be leaving. She was glad she got into the college in North Carolina. Still she would miss Maine. She would miss this little house.
"Let's get this show on the road!" Anna said excitedly as she threw her bag through the window of the truck.
"Help me tie down this tarp," Eliyah asked. Anna nodded as she grabbed the other side. "You aren't even a little sad about leaving?" She asked Anna.
Anna shrugged. "I guess maybe a little." She said, then laughed. "But you know me. I like change."
"You mean you are going to miss it here, yet at the same time you are glad to be going somewhere no one knows you." Eliyah said as she made her last knot.
Nodding as she laughed. "Yeah that would be it. I made a lot of enemies as a teen." She said. She hated to admit it, but it was true. Only recently had she started to watch what she said and who she said it to. Mainly for Eli's sake.
"Okay let's get going. We have a long drive." Eliyah said. She took out her phone and snapped one last picture of the house.
Washington-
"Where you going," Elena asked her friend Brook who looked to be packing.
Brook spun around placing her hand over her heart and taking a sigh of relief when she saw Elena. "You scared the hell out of me." She said.
"Sorry," Elena said giving Brook a smile. "I didn't mean to sneak up."
"Well I guess you can't really help it." Brook said, then sighed. "I am leaving because I can't stand it here anymore. Its wet, cold..."
"And has Anton." Elena said interrupting her. Brook nodded. "Yeah, I ran into Kevin at the bar. He told me you and Anton were at it again."
"Yeah well this time I am done. I need to get out of here. I need change." Brook said.
"Were you going to leave without saying goodbye?" Elena asked trying not to take it personally.
Brook looked down with guilt. "I wanted to. I just wanted to get out before I could get out before I change my mind. Please don't be mad."
Elena nodded. "I am not made. Or I wont be as long as you take me with you."
Brook smiled. "Wait, you want to come with me?"
"Yeah, It would be fun," Elena said.
Brook smiled. "Hell yeah it would." She picked up her bag. Lets go get your things."
Elena followed her out the door. "Where shall we go?" Elena asked.
Brook shrugged. "Wherever life brings us."
Utah-
Caroline watched as Klaus paced around the dusty living room. "Klaus I flew here. Please tell me I didn't come just to watch you pace." She said with irritation.
"I remember," He said to her with urgency. Why did he remember? It was three months to soon.
Caroline fought to hide her shock. Did he mean he remembers who he is? Who they were? "What are you talking about Klaus?" She asked trying to look confused.
Klaus looked at her. He wanted to kiss her so bad. "Caroline." He said unsure what else to say. He shook his head, still pacing about. "You wouldn't believe me even if I told you. Why do I remember?"
"Do you mean about who we are?" Caroline asked. Bonnie told her not to tell any of the others. That they would remember on Eliyah's twentieth birthday. However if Klaus already knew, what was the harm in letting him know that she knew too?
Klaus stopped in his tracks. He looked at her questionably. "Caroline you know who I really am?" He asked her.
She nodded, "You are Niklaus Mikealson, and you are not my brother." She said with a small smile. "Thank god because I had some intense feelings toward you." She added with a laugh.
"Why do we remember?" He asked her not really looking for an answer.
Caroline shrugged. "Bonnie thinks I remember because I saw her. She saved me from a fire." Caroline waved away the concern on Klaus' face. "Don't worry I wasn't hurt. Anyway she said it is so close to the end that we are all starting to remember. She triggered mine."
"But I have not seen anyone." Klaus said. He took a few steps toward Caroline.
"You are an original. Maybe that's why you remember." Caroline said.
"Maybe. Caroline that girl Eliyah she shares the same name I gave my daughter." He said slowly.
"I know," Caroline said with nod. "I think she is your daughter. It would explain why you felt so compelled to be apart of her life."
He nodded. There was no arguing with her. He knew it was the truth. "I was looking for her when the truth it me. It was so weird one minute I know I am one person and the next I know the last twenty years have been a lie."
"Yeah," Caroline said with a laugh. "I got the revolution over night." She smiled at him. "I know that this is all really weird. Bonnie says we need to find Eliyah. They don't know how long after her twentieth birthday her vampire side will show. However they are sure the first full moon after her werewolf side will come through. No one knows exactly what that means. Obviously there has never been a child born of a vampire, and she is also half wolf. It's crazy."
"We do have to find her. She will be frightened." He said in a tone that surprised Caroline. It was one she had heard before, but now that she knew the truth is was odd.
She closed the distance between the, taking his hand and squeezing it. "We will find her. She will be fine. This is Eliyah we are talking about."
"I have missed you Caroline." He said looking at her in a way that made her feel like she would set fire. The memory of their last encounter before they lost their memories played in her head. She tried to look away before she blushed, but his hands cough her face and his mouth was on her is a kiss that she could not easily forget.
Tennessee-
Elijah looked around his new home. People had started to suspect something was off about him so he had decided it was time to once again move. This move was a lot different then the others. Hayley was waking up. Sometime she would wake for a whole five minutes before slipping back into her coma state.
He was excited with this new development. It meant she could wake up for sure. She never talked, but she would smile at him. This made all the other years worth while. He watched her know as she slept. She had just been looking at him moments before.
A knocked on the door pulled him from his thoughts. He opened it revealing a lovely blond.
"I am sorry to disturb you, I saw your light on. My car broke down and I have no idea where I am, as you can see it is pouring."
"No problem, please come in." He said moving aside. He smiled as she went in.
She looked around. "You have a beautiful home. Very old fashion like."
Elijah nodded. "Yes I tend to like the more vintage feel."
the woman smile. "As do I. My name is Rebekah." She said holding out her hand.
"Elijah," He said taking it. "You look oddly familiar," He said after a moment.
"Yeah," She said with a slight nod. "I was thinking the same."
Florida-
Damon looked down to where the water met the sand, slowly making its way up the beach. He was bored out of his mind and currently kicking himself in the ass for leaving Elena. What the hell was he thinking? He loved her.
He couldn't believe it had been three years since he left her. He had went back to find her last year, but she had moved on and he was not looking for her ever since. As well as someone else. He had no idea who this person was or why he wanted to find them, but it didn't change the facts.
He thought of the face he saw in his dreams. It was a face of a guy with brown hair and eyes. He felt like he was close to the person. Like he should have never forgotten who he was. Damon's brow pulled together when a name crossed his mind. Stefan.
"Stefan?" He said out loud, then took a sharp breath. Just for a moment it felt like his brain would explode. He looked over the ocean with shock. He remembered everything.
Lost Somewhere-
"Have you heard from Stefan?" Anna asked Eliyah who drove slowly through the pouring rain.
"Yeah, we text often." She said wondering where the hell they were. The had pulled off the highway to get some food, but she must had taken a wrong turn somewhere because they had not run into any town and now it was so dark she was not sure she could see a building if it stared them in the face.
"What has he been up to? I miss him being around." Anna said. She was nervous so she was trying to make small talk.
Eliyah shrugged. "He still says he is looking for something." She said to Anna.
"Well he needs to stop looking and settle. He wont stay young forever." Anna said.
Eliyah agreed though she knew he would. He had told her that she was a witch. It would explain why the cake exploded on her sixteenth birthday, along with some other things that she had experienced. She had tried to blow it off, but she had been upset on day and she yelled saying she just wanted a damn umbrella and one appeared in her hands. Hard to argue after that. She learned soon after that he was a vampire. At first she wanted to deny it, but again she couldn't do that for long. Though she knew she should fear him she never did. It was Stefan after all.
"Eliyah watch out!" Anna yelled pulling Eliyah from her thoughts. Eliyah swerved just in time to miss whatever was in the road, but she hit something that made the truck go flying. It flipped a few times, then stopped upside down.
Eliyah took deep breaths. "Anna? You okay?" She asked.
"I think so." Anna said in a terrified whisper.
Eliyah carefully unhooked herself from the seat. She fell, cutting her knee on some broken glass. She could hear Anna crying quietly.
"Anna I am going to help you out," Eliyah said. She carefully unhooked Anna, Catching her as she went down so she wouldn't hurt herself more. They both climbed from the window and stood for a moment in the rain.
"Eli what are we going to do now?" Anna asked looking at the truck. Their stuff was all over the place.
"I don't know." Eliyah said. Her mind raced. "Let's just start walking. We are bound to find something." Eliyah said trying to convince herself as much as she was trying to convince Anna.
Eliyah had no idea how long they had walked, but when she saw a house her heart leaped into her throat with excitement. They were cold, wet and very tired. "Look Anna." She said to her. Anna had hurt her leg bad in the car accident, so Eliyah all but carried her now.
"Oh think god." She heard Anna whisper. Eliyah wondered how much blood loss they both have suffered. She could feel her legs scream as she told herself just a few more steps.
They came upon the huge house and she couldn't hep but gawk at it. She struggled up the steps and knocked on the door. "I have been expecting you." A woman said from behind them.
Eliyah turned slowly. She was exhausted. "What?" She asked confused, then shook her head. "We need help. We were in an accident." She said to the woman who smiled hugely.
She took a few steps forward. "I never thought it would be so easy." She said, As Eliyah helped Anna sit.
"I'm sorry, but you never thought what would be so easy?" Eliyah asked getting a bad feeling.
Again the woman smiled big. She almost looked crazy. "Killing you." The woman said in a wicked tone.
Eliyah took a step back. "Why?" Was all Eliyah could think to say.
"Oh dear child." The woman said. "I know this makes no sense to you. You couldn't possibly understand. That was my doing as well. You see your parents and other sacrificed for you almost twenty years ago so you could be safe. They knew that there was danger in your future, They could not imagine it was you who were the danger. I meant to kill you as a child, but you managed to get out of my grasp. That was a very unexpected turn of events, yet here we are. You tired from travel and wounded from an accident. Even the universe knows you should die." The woman said with a laugh.
The woman went to attack her. Eliyah threw her hands up and the woman flew back. She jumped up, shock heavy on her face. "No," She said half with anger and half with wonder. "It can't possibly be." She added.
Eliyah's legs gave out. Whatever she had just done had taken the rest of her strength. She looked at Anna who looked at her with fear. Anna knows about her being a witch so thee fear must be for her life.
"Please," Anna said to the woman in a weak tone. "She has never hurt a soul, you must have the wrong person." Anna begged. She knew they were not going to walk away from this, but she had to try.
"You are a true marvel." The woman said as she walked to Eliyah. "Truly. I never even saw that coming. I mean I have heard of magic transference, but never had I seen it done. I true waste. You see you must die." The woman was about to put her hands up when something came at her from the side. Anna and Eliyah could hear the sound of struggle, then a pop sound and all went quite
Eliyah and Anna sat shocked. "Are you two okay?" A familiar voiced asked.
"Stefan?" Eliyah asked. Stefan stepped into the light. He looked worried. "You have no idea how great it is to see you." Eliyah all but cried when she saw him. He gave her is breathtaking smile.
"I think I have an idea." He said. "Looks like I got to you just in time."
