Chapter 38: New Werewolf in Town


"We're going to have to test her to see if we can trust her," Bonnie told Sakura.

"Already know we can't, you test her, I'll trap her in right away though," Sakura sighed, knowing the outcome.

"I'll let Jeremy in on it," Bonnie rushed away.

Sakura turned when a hand was put on her shoulder, "It's for the best," Damon tried to smile.

Sakura put her hands up at Elena's front door, "Adamanteus aer coerceo Elena et Leilani!" A shine went around the house and disappeared.

"Is that it?" Damon asked, "Elena and Leilani?"

"Yeah, barrier is up. They can't leave, Leilani seems to be a flight risk as well," Sakura sighed and turned to leave.

"Not staying to see what happens?" Damon asked.

"I already know what's going to happen," Sakura seemed sure. "I'm going to go see Stefan," Sakura said as she walked away.

"I'll drive, I have something to bring him anyways," Damon rushed to catch up.


"You trapped her in her house?" Stefan seemed unsettled.

"It's for the best. Trust me. Elena is on a martyr that rivals your greatest hits. I brought you this," Damon handed him a bag.

"Besides, she has company in there," Sakura smirked.

"Care package: candles, lanterns and lunch," Damon showed him a bottle of blood.

"Give that to me and I'm just gonna have to share with her," Stefan nodded his head towards Katherine.

"I'll hold her back while you chug it," Sakura smiled and her eyes glowed, "Drink up."

Stefan polished it off and couldn't help but smirk. "You guys are surprisingly calm considering Klaus will hunt you down and kill you if you mess with his little plan," Katherine spoke up.

"I've been dead before. I got over it," Damon glared at her.

"And what about her," Katherine said referring to Sakura.

"She'll probably be the one to kill him," Damon smirked as he pulled Sakura close to him.

"Ugh," Katherine rolled her eyes, "Get a room."

"Who needs one," Damon retorted before giving Sakura a kiss.

Katherine gave them a dirty look and walked deeper into the tomb, since Sakura had already released her. "I see you two are still getting along," Stefan held back a smirk.

Damon smiled at him briefly before getting serious, "Once we deal with this moonstone, we'll figure a way to get you out."

"Don't worry about me. Just make sure Elena's safe," Stefan said firmly.

"Don't you know we multitask," Sakura smiled at him sadly, "We will get you out Stefan. Take care."

They walked away back to the car. "You are still blushing," Damon laughed.

"I'm not big on PDA," Sakura sighed.

"Well that's too bad, cause I am," Damon smiled getting in.


They went to Elena's house, Damon was ahead of her, " You should really lock your door." Elena, who was sitting on the couch with Leilani, glared at him, "Oh, come on pouty. Just give me two points for ingenuity."

"Do you think this is funny?" Elena growled.

"Of course!" Sakura rolled her eyes.

"SA-KU-RA!" Leilani got off the couch, "Let us out!" she screeched.

"Um, ouch," Sakura pointed at her ears, "And no," Sakura used her powers to push Leilani back on the couch. "You guys are house bound," Sakura stated.

"What does Stefan say about this?" Elena asked.

"Pretty good laugh," Damon smirked.

"And what did he say about Elijah still being alive?" Elena continued.

"Forgot to mention that," Sakura bit her lip, "Besides there's nothing he can do about it."

Jeremy came into the room and Damon noticed someone missing, "Where is Bonnie?"

"I thought she was meeting you," Jeremy frowned.

"No, she's on moonstone duty and we're on Elena patrol," Damon stated.

"Shouldn't I be on moonstone duty as well?" Sakura asked, not sure why she wasn't.

"Well..." Damon trailed off.

"And who's on Tyler Lockwood and the full moon?" Jeremy changed the subject. Sakura looked at Jeremy suspiciously, wondering what they were up to.

"Vampire Barbie asked me if she can handle this and why not? Because if she screwed up he'll bite her and then I'll be rid of two of my problems," Damon explained.

"Hold on a second. Tonight is a full moon?" Elena hadn't noticed.

"Yeah but you were too absorbed with all your suicidal tendencies to notice," Damon replied before picking up his phone that had started to ring. "What?" Damon answered as if he was annoying, "What? Why? What girl?" Damon turned away from them, "It's not good. Where are you? I'm on my way," Damon hung up. "Change of plans. You baby sit," Damon said to Jeremy. Jeremy sighed and laid on Elena's lap. "Hey you know, you should get out, enjoy the sun. Oh wait, you can't," Damon laughed. Elena threw a pillow at him, he deflected it with his hand. "Time to run," Damon grabbed Sakura's hand and bolted out the door.


They headed to the Mystic Grill, where Alaric was waiting for them at the bar. They sat down beside him and he pointed to a lady talking to Matt, "Mason's mystery woman," Damon said as they looked at her.

"Where is Mason anyway?" Alaric inquired.

"Decomposing in his truck," Damon answered.

"So you think she is a werewolf?" Alaric asked, worried he already knew the answer.

Sakura's shoulder started to burn, then she felt a tingle down her spine, "She is..." Sakura trailed off.

"Well I hope not, because it's the full moon, but we should definitely find out..." Damon glanced at Sakura for a second, noticing something off, then turned to Alaric and pulled out wolf's bane from his pocket.

"What is that?" Alaric asked.

"Wolf's bane," Damon smirked, Sakura knew right away, he had a plan.


They separated from the bar, out of sight from Jules, the werewolf looking for Mason. They waited for her to be alone at the bar, to put their plan in action. Alaric went up to her with a drink, faking that he was drunk. Damon was waiting to go in and distract her while Alaric spiked her drink with wolf's bane. "Be careful," Sakura warned him, hiding behind a corner, out of sight.

"No worries," Damon tried to assure her. They saw Alaric talking with Jules, "My turn," Damon walked briskly over.

Sakura stayed off to the side, trying to use reflections to see what was going on. Sakura was certain Jules was a werewolf, which meant she was deadly. She saw the three of them talking and Alaric drop the wolf's bane in Jules's drink. Alaric quickly made his leave after that. Damon chatted with Jules for a while, but she didn't have any of the drink. Sakura heard them talking about Mason, and Damon glanced over at Alaric then at her nervously. Suddenly Sakura felt a pulse of energy, "Elijah?" Sakura swallowed hard and looked around the room frantically, he was nowhere to be seen. She knew she felt his presence, but why? He wasn't at the Grill with them, so how could she feel his energy. Sakura stormed into the ladies bathroom, breathing heavily and sweating. She locked the door and tried to concentrate, "Omni neuro caecus visus bentidoct." Sakura casted a spell to see into Elena's house, figuring Elijah had walked through her barrier.

Sakura could see Elena in her room with Elijah. "Klaus is the most feared and hated of the originals, but those who fear him are desperate for his approval. If the word gets out that the doppelganger exists there'll be a line of vampires eager to take you to him and I can't have that," Elijah was explaining himself.

"Isn't that exactly what you're trying to do?" Elena asked.

"Let's just say that my goal is not to break the curse," Elijah said vaguely.

"So what is your goal?" Elena asked, glaring at him.

"Klaus's obsession has made him paranoid. He's a recluse. He trust only those in his immediately circle," Elijah explained briefly.

"Like you?" Elena pointed out.

"Not anymore," Elijah frowned.

"You don't know where he is, do you? So you're trying to use me to pry him out," Elena breathed in deeply.

"Well, to do that I need you to stay put and stop trying to get yourself killed," Elijah sighed.

"How do I know you're telling the truth?" Elena looked at him suspiciously.

"If I wasn't being truthful, your family would be dead and I'd be taking you to Klaus right now. Instead, I'm here and I'm preparing to offer you a deal," Elijah stated.

A deal, Sakura found it odd.

"What kind of a deal?" Elena bit her lip.

"Do nothing. Do nothing, live your life, stop fighting and then, when the time is right, you and I should drop Klaus to get out and I should make sure your friends remain unharmed," Elijah looked in the direction where Sakura was secretly watching them. She swallowed hard, but kept watching.

"And then what?" Elena asked.

Suddenly Sakura was pulled out of her trance by Alaric calling to her and thumping his fist on the door. "Sakura! Are you okay?" he asked.

"I'm fine," she opened the door.

"You're all sweaty... I saw you run off," Alaric looked at her with worry.

"How are things going with Jules?" Sakura changed the subject.

"She hasn't touched the drink," Alaric informed her. Sakura walked out of the bathroom and they stood around the corner with him.

"I know she's a werewolf, I wonder is she can smell the wolf's bane," Sakura pondered in a whisper, loud enough for Alaric to hear.

"Who knows..." Alaric had no idea, "Looks like you're right. I'll intervene, you stay here," Alaric rushed off. "How about that second round?" Alaric asked them.

"I think we're done, Ric," Damon sighed. Sakura heard him, and slowly made her way up to them. "You think I'm afraid of you?" Damon asked Jules.

"No, I don't. That's your vampire arrogance. You should be. I sniffed you out the moment you entered this bar along with your pathetic wolf's bane. Any other night of the month, the situation would be reversed but tonight is not the night to pick a fight with me. You've been marked," she practically hissed at Damon. She got up to leave and bumped into Sakura, "Sorry."

"Don't threaten him. Or else you'll have to deal with me," Sakura's eyes glowed as she walked by Jules. Jules stumbled away from her, not sure what she saw.

Sakura looked over to see Damon frowning, he stormed out of the Grill and she followed him along with Alaric. "Where is she?" he growled.

"Just let her go, Damon. Don't be stupid," Alaric told him.

"So what? Just let her get away? 'You've been marked' What the hell kind of wolf crap is that anyway?" Damon was pretty angry.

"Damon, look up! Just look up," Alaric pointed up at the full moon. "If this werewolf stuff is true, one bite and you're dead. One bite! Alright? Don't risk it," Alaric tried to reason with him.

"Lets just go home and stay safe," Sakura zoned out slightly, looking at the moon.

"Yeah," Damon sighed.


Damon and Sakura got to the boarding house. They went in and Damon locked the doors, they walked into the library and saw Rose waiting for them. "You just can't stay away, can you?" Damon complained.

"You don't answer your phone, either of you," Rose frowned.

"Speaking of my phone," Sakura pulled it out, "105 texts tonight, mostly Elena and Leilani," Sakura sighed and put it away.

"Guess they don't like house arrest," Damon smirked.

"I wanted to apologize," Rose interrupted them.

"Just admit it, you don't have anywhere else to go," Damon rolled his eyes.

"I'm sorry about Elena and Leilani. I wasn't thinking straight. I didn't know they had a death wish but I called you, I tried to make it right, okay? I'm sorry, Damon, Sakura and I have nowhere else to go," Rose admitted.

"There's nothing for you here, Rose," Damon replied.

"There's lots of space," Sakura said, "Come on Damon." Sakura paused for a moment and turned to the window, "Someone is near. Umbra Ferrum."

They heard a window break in the living room and rushed in. A wolf was standing there, it immediately jumped on Rose biting her. Sakura threw her sword at it, not getting a direct hit, but injuring it. It ran away, but the damage was already done, Rose had been bitten. Sakura and Damon helped her get up. "How bad is it?" Damon asked.

"It hurts," Rose winced.

"It's healing," Damon looked at the bite.

"Oh my god, I thought a werewolf bite was fatal and I thought…" Rose started to cry.

"Rose," Sakura pulled her into a hug and stroked her hair. Damon, wrapped his arms around both of them in an embrace. When Rose calmed down, they separated. "Jules is looking for a fight," Sakura sighed.

"How do you know it's Jules and not Tyler?" Damon inquired.

"Tyler locked himself up, and you should know by now I can sense things, a lot more then anyone," Sakura smirked, "Be careful Rose, it looks like it's healing, but it might take time to sink in. Your vampire blood is probably fighting the virus.

"I'm sorry. I picked a fight with her. She was coming after me," Damon bit his lip.

"Pretty sure I provoked her as well..." Sakura trailed off.

"All's well that ends well," Rose sighed, "But I'll keep what you said in mind Sakura. Also, I'm going to stay and help you guys."

"Help us do what?" Damon crossed his arms.

"Save them, the sacrifices, all of them," Rose stood firm.

"Really? Why?" Damon couldn't figure a good reason for her to help.

"Because I like you guys. I believe in friendship. I happen to have a vacancy in that department and you can use all the friends you can get going up against Klaus," Rose smiled weakly.

"Come on, I'll show you a free room," Sakura linked arms with her and led her upstairs.

"You know this place as well as me, it's like you live here," Damon shouted up at them, laughing slightly.

"Thank you," Rose said when Sakura opened up a door to an empty room.

"My room is just next door," Sakura left and headed back downstairs. When she reached the bottom step she was pushed against the wall, "Miss me already?"

"Of course," Damon smiled and kissed her. "So what exactly happened at the Grill when you ran off?" Damon questioned her.

"What are you talking about?" Sakura went to move away, but couldn't.

"I heard you run into the bathroom, and your heart rate was through the roof. Then it suddenly dropped really low," he stated. He brought his head really close to hers, he eyed her careful, "What happened?" he whispered.

"I felt Elijah's presence hit me like a ton of bricks," Sakura sighed. He backed off slightly, waiting for her to explain more, "He got into Elena's house, I felt him walk through the spell. So I used some magic to see what was going on, but I couldn't keep it long enough."

"And when were you planning to tell me this?" Damon complained.

"Didn't really have a plan going," Sakura held back a laugh.

"Is that so?" Damon smirked and kissed her neck.

"Stop, you know I'm ticklish," Sakura laughed. "Ah!" Sakura squealed, still laughing as Damon kissed her neck. Sakura's foot slipped, and Damon caught her, his arm firmly around her waist.

Rose came rushing down, "Sakura?" The she noticed what was going on, "Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry, I heard Sakura scream..." Rose trailed off.

Damon and Sakura looked at each other and laughed heartily. "Thanks for coming when you thought I was in trouble," Sakura smiled.

"Right, I'll just," Rose pointed up the stairs and disappeared right after.

"Now where were we?" Damon smirked.
