Hi everyone! Here I am with a new part for you! I wanted to thank all the responses I've had.

And I wanted to tell you that I made an instagram account for my stories, I'll put stuff related to this if you'd like to follow, it's @iceduchess26.
I also wanted to thank ElzaSniegs for the review, thank you so much, it was so nice to read and know that you liked it and also thank you for appreciating the translation. I tried to write their relationships with both teasing and emotions, like 'I'd do anything for you but you're dumb' hahahaha.
And thank you for the advice! I know AO3 because I read Supernatural fics there but I don't have an account, maybe I'll sign up there since actually here is the only place where it's succeeding the story, I put it in wattpad in english and spanish but it's not that much, but thanks for your words!

Normal POV
Elena woke up feeling dizzy, when she looked up she saw Ben and tried to escape but Ben discovered her and tried to compel her. She tried to escape again after tricking him when Anna found her and locked her in the bathroom of the place, she looked around the place and found out that Bonnie had also been kidnapped, she approached her and noticed that she was unconscious.
Damon was at the Salvatore boarding house, he was sitting in the study reading the grimoire carefully when he heard Stefan enter, but he didn't look up.
-Anna took Elena- revealed Stefan with anxiety on his face entering the study.
-Yeah, I got that from your 600 voice mails- he clarified without taking his eyes off the pages.
-Damon, I've been searching all night, every street in town. What if your blood hasn't left her system?- he insinuated while he walked towards his brother and stared at him.
-Well, then at least you know you'll see her again- the older guy added, wanting him to leave.
-Please. What do you know? You were with Anna, you must know where she is living. Just tell me where I can find her- asked the vampire as he sat down on the couch in front of him.
-Nope. You can go now, really- he denied looking at him for a moment and smirking to go back to reading.
-You know, all I can remember is hating you. There might have been a time when it was different, but your choices have erased anything good about you, no matter what Caroline thinks- the younger one started to say, Damon put the grimoire in his lap and looked at him- But I also know you have just as much reason to hate me. This all started with me. Katherine was taken away from you because of me. And I'm sorry- he apologized without lowering his gaze, hoping that he would help him.
-Apology accepted- accepted the vampire, smiling slightly at him.
-So please, just tell me what you know- he repeated with desperation. Damon lowered his gaze to the grimoire and kept looking through it- It's Elena, Damon. If you know something, tell me- begged him. His brother sighed and closed the book while he stood up after some thought, followed by Stefan.
-I mean this sincerely- Damon began to speak, making his brother nod waiting for his answer- I hope Elena dies- he replied seriously staring at him and let the study.
After a while, Elena had managed to get Bonnie to wake up, although she was confused and remembered that Ben was a vampire. Elena believed that they were kidnapped because of something related to the tomb and Emily's grimoire, and explained that she hadn't told her about all that since she didn't want them to use Bonnie as the witch to break the spell and free the vampires. At that they were interrupted by Ben, who revealed that they had kidnapped Elena to motivate Bonnie to collaborate with them and took the older brunette with Anna, who after looking at her for a few moments affirmed that Elena was Katherine's doppelganger indeed.
Caroline had woken up with a bad feeling, like something weird in her body and she couldn't explain it so she went to the Grill to see if Stefan or Damon were there. When she entered she looked around looking for her brothers or Elena that would know about them, but when she didn't see them she approached Matt.
-Hi Matt- she greeted him as soon as she approached while the boy worked.
-Hey Caroline, what are you doing here?- he returned the greeting as he looked at her with a smile.
-Well, apart from looking for my brothers, I came to talk to you. Don't worry, it's nothing bad- she began to explain. She liked the boy and they had kissed but hadn't spoken.
-You seem nervous, it's a little weird to see you like this- commented the guy chuckling a little.
-Yeah. It's just that you kissed me and I don't want things to be weird. I just wanted to talk about this in case you feel regret now, that it was an impulse or a mistake. Clarify all this- started to say the heretic hoping the conversation would be something easy to do.
-A mistake?- repeated the human, confused by what she was saying.
-Yes, we don't know if this is gonna work. I just wanna say that what I'm offering you now is a way out. It would be a kind of escape clause- she finished her strange speech, although by the confused look on Matt's face, maybe she had explained herself wrong.
-Why are you offering me an escape clause?- asked Matt, more confused than before.
-I don't want to make assumptions about what's going on between us. So if you want to think it through, tell me- she clarified with a small smile hoping that her speech had gone well.
-I'm fine with this, but thank you- affirmed the younger one smiling at her, thinking it was nice what she had told him. She was about to speak when Stefan appeared and seemed to be tense.
-Caroline, I need your help. Come with me- ordered the vampire speaking fast, taking one of his sister's arms to try to get her to go with him outside the Grill.
-Sorry but Stefan needs me- apologized the blonde with a smile as Matt chuckled when he saw the guy- See you at Duke's party!- she shouted saying goodbye from the door.
-Sure, see you later!- Matt smiled and waved goodbye and continued working. At leaving Caroline looked at the older guy angrily for ruining her moment with the boy.
-I'm sorry but I need your help. A girl named Anna, Pearl's daughter, took Elena and I need you to find her with your magic- her brother explained with some desperation.
-Calm down Stefan, just breathe, okay? To find Elena I need something of hers or blood from a relative, otherwise I can't do anything. Get something of hers while I get ready for the party- she offered slow to convey him security and relaxation. Stefan nodded and left her after mumbling a thank you.
Anna had been talking to Elena because she kept asking her questions. Anna revealed to her that she wanted to free her mother from the tomb since for Katherine's fault she had been trapped, and that she would be her leverage so she called Stefan with Elena's phone. She explained that his girlfriend would be fine if he got the grimoire and with Damon agreed to work with her. She then told the vampire that she wanted to meet with one of them. After a while Anna went to the square and came across Jeremy who invited her to the party in the woods, then Damon appeared sitting with her.
-Got a date or are you planning to nab the entire Gilbert family?- asked Damon looking at her sideways.
-A party, right next to the old cemetery. Isn't that nice of them? Lots of warm bodies for starving vampires?- she commented smirking as she turned a little to look at him.
-I told you, I work alone- he reminded her, looking at her with seriousness, wanting nothing to do with her.
-Yes, so do I. But you're minus a witch and I'm minus a spell book. So, what do you say?- offered the older, not wanting to work with anyone either, but she had no choice.
-Stefan will come after you, you know that. For messing with Elena- clarified the younger one smiling a little. But internally he was angry that Caroline had refused to help him open the tomb, if she accepted to help him anyway he wouldn't have to depend on someone else.
-Then he won't be happy if I kill her when I don't get what I want- warned the girl as she stood up and was about to leave. After thinking about it for a few moments Damon sighed.
-When do you want to do this?- he asked without looking at her, getting more and more irritated by the situation. Anna smiled and turned around while she laughed lightly at the Salvatore boy's decision.
-God, it's like 1864 all over again. I think that the Salvatore men are truly pathetic when it comes to women. Tonight, after sundown. See you at the church- she said after wiping the smile off her face and left, leaving Damon thoughtful and angry at the meeting.
Elena and Bonnie were at the motel room being watched by Ben, after having tried to escape using Bonnie's magic. Suddenly, Stefan appeared who took advantage of Ben not having a daylight ring to burn him with the sun, giving the girls a chance to escape with him. Then the three of them went to Bonnie's grandmother's house.
At first, Stefan wanted the girls to stay with Sheila at the house while he took care of Damon. Elena believed that the oldest one wouldn't stop until he freed Katherine and perhaps it would be best to help him, other than that they had no choice. Sheila agreed to open the tomb if Stefan got Katherine out and kill the other vampires, which they all agreed to. The only thing left was for Damon to trust them again, which Stefan thought impossible, so Elena offered to go for Damon. In the meantime, Stefan stayed with the witches.
-Stefan there is something that I would like to ask you for today- Sheila started when Bonnie went to the bathroom.
-Sure, after agreeing to do this, ask for anything you want- affirmed Stefan with a curious look.
-I'd like some of your blood- at seeing his surprised look the younger one explained- You see, this spell is big and we don't have anything to channel. We are powerful witches and we are able to do it, but a little extra energy would be useful- she explained the first part of her idea.
-But why would my blood be of any use to you if I'm a vampire?- he wanted to know, somewhat confused.
-Even though you're a vampire you come from a powerful family of witches, using your blood I'll be able to channel the magic of your bloodline through your sister to help us cast the spell- she clarified him, not mentioning that the channeling could be a bit painful for the blonde.
-Is this blood thing 100% necessary? I don't know if it's good, I don't know much of magic- hesitated the vampire, he didn't know if it would be a good idea or if something bad would happen to the heretic.
-Don't worry, channeling isn't bad. Besides, because of her vampirism, your sister will heal faster- the witch tried to convince him. She didn't really like channeling a vampire but if she wanted to go through with her plan she would need all the power she could get. After some thought he sighed.
-Okay, I'll give you some of my blood if this won't hurt Caroline- Stefan agreed while the woman brought a small vial to him and he dropped blood after biting his wrist.
Elena had managed to convince Damon that they were all on the same side and the Bennett witches were going to open the tomb to free Katherine, and luckily the vampire had agreed to trust her. They were on their way to the tomb when they arrived at Duke's party and saw Matt with Caroline, who had been briefed on almost everything that had happened by Stefan, but the vampires had agreed not to tell the blonde that they were going to open the tomb.
-Damon, Elena, how are you?- greeted the heretic as soon as she saw the vampire and the girl near her.
-Fine, long story but we don't have time- answered Damon trying to get away from them with Elena but the heretic got in their way with a doubtful look.
-Is something wrong?- she wanted to know, having the feeling that they were hiding something from her.
-Nothing to worry about, sis- the oldest tried to cut the subject short and leave.
-I don't think we've met, I'm Matt- the human introduced himself, extending his hand.
-You must be the blonde's boyfriend. There's a reason we haven't met Matt, we have to go. Now you and I are going that way- he replied without taking the boy's hand while he pulled Elena's arm away from them. And he heard the heretic apologize to the boy on his behalf.
Stefan was waiting outside of the tomb with Bonnie and Sheila, down there he had set some torches and cleaned the place so they could do the spell, and he had brought what was necessary to kill the other vampires. At that moment Damon appeared with Elena and the grimoire.
-Brother. Witches- greeted the older vampire as he passed between them and went straight down to the tomb after looking at them all and Elena walked straight towards Stefan.
-Everything okay?- Stefan asked, worried that something had happened on the way.
-I just want to get this over with. But there's something I don't get. Why didn't you and Damon want to tell Caroline about the plan? Maybe she'd be happy to kill vampires- inquired Elena curiously.
-Because Caroline doesn't want the tomb opened, she doesn't want Katherine back. If it were up to her, those vampires would stay locked there for eternity, or she'd go in there to kill them herself- he answered a little doubtful about how to explain what his sister would do.
-You can tell Caroline hates Katherine just by looking at her face at her name. Are we ready?- Elena asked to the witches, thinking that they were right in not wanting the blonde girl there.
-I guess- Bonnie agreed, then the four of them looked at each other and went down to the tomb.
At the party, Matt was talking to Tyler about not knowing if he could act as a couple with Caroline in public since she seemed a bit mysterious and hiding things, so he didn't know what to do. Tyler was saying that he wanted his friend single when his drink fell on him suddenly and the boys saw Caroline, who returned after disappearing earlier.
-Hey, there you are Matt. Tyler, did you have an accident?- asked Caroline feigning confusion, but inwardly she was smiling since she'd made him drop his drink over him.
-Don't you dare say that. I'd better go to get another beer instead of listening to you- replied the younger one angry and left, but stumbled after the heretic moved her hand hidden.
-Excuse him, he tends to get angry easily- apologized the human while she nodded.
-I wanted to apologize for what Damon did. I didn't know that he was gonna do that since he hadn't met any of my boyfriends so I didn't think he would be rude, I hope you weren't offended. If it's of any help Stefan is usually more polite than he is- she tried to apologize a little distressed. She had gone to try to spy on them but she had forgotten her mirror and didn't have another one in her purse.
-Don't worry, it didn't bother me. Maybe some time we can talk better- assured the boy smiling making her sigh with relief smiling equally, and they started walking.
At the tomb, Bonnie and Sheila had started to cast the spell after throwing water on the ground and lighting the torches representing all the elements. Damon and Stefan were saying that what they were reciting was similar to Latin when they stopped and Bonnie affirmed to them it had worked. While Stefan went to get the stuff to kill the vampires, Damon revealed that he wanted to go into the tomb with Elena to make sure the witches didn't lock him in there, which Elena agreed to do as she understood the older vampire's reasoning and they entered the tomb.
Stefan was outside getting everything ready when Anna and Ben arrived. The girl threatened to kill Jeremy, whom she had kidnapped, if he tried to stop her from getting her mother out of the tomb. Damon and Elena were walking through the tomb, where whispers of the vampires could be heard, when the oldest one left her alone to look for Katherine. Bonnie and Sheila were waiting there outside for the Salvatores when Anna appeared and entered into the tomb, Bonnie tried to stop her but was stopped by her grandmother who revealed to her that none of them would get out of there.
While at the party in the woods, Caroline was talking and laughing with some of her friends when she noticed Matt watching her from afar, so she walked towards him.
-I like it when you're like this, so relaxed and lively- Matt commented, smiling a little at her.
-I'm having fun, I like parties. But I like being here with you, I like having something normal like this in my life. I really like you- confessed Caroline getting a little closer to the boy while she smiled softly, since she liked to have something like this.
-I like being with you too, and I really like you- affirmed Matt with an equal smile and they pulled their faces close to the other, putting their foreheads together. After some moments they resumed their walk and tried to enjoy the party while they talked. Unaware of what was going on in the tomb.
After killing Ben by setting him on fire, Stefan returned to the tomb to find that Damon had taken Elena inside with him so he tried to go inside to find her, but Sheila told him that in the tomb there was a seal so vampires could enter but couldn't get out so Damon would end up trapped and Elena would get out by being human. That made Stefan a bit angry as he had trusted her with both the spell and his blood, but the older witch reminded him that she was only going to protect her own and that at least Elena would be able to get out.
Elena was walking through the tomb looking for Damon or the exit, but then she came across Anna and Pearl's body. The older girl revealed to her that since Johnathan Gilbert had been guilty of what had happened to her mother, Pearl would be revived with Gilbert blood. Then she took Elena's wrist and bit her making her scream, alerting Stefan that without thinking entered the tomb, and Bonnie began to ask her grandmother to help her get the vampire out of there.
Anna had placed Elena's wrist against Pearl's mouth to revive her, at that Stefan appeared and grabbed her and took her to the exit while Anna reunited with her mother. Elena came out and discovered that her boyfriend was trapped in the tomb, the witches thought they could lower the seal for a while so Stefan went for Damon as they cast the spell. But none of the girls noticed how Sheila dropped blood from a vial on the ground.
Caroline was leaning against a tree looking with a smile at Matt who was talking to his friends. Out of nowhere the heretic started to feel something strange in her body, as if something was bothering her and she started to feel dizzy. She tried to pretend that she was fine, but the feeling was getting worse and worse and her head began to hurt. She was so distracted that she didn't notice Matt had gotten near her as he saw her staggering a little by the tree.
-Hey Caroline. Are you okay? What's wrong?- he asked as soon as he was in front of her and checked her over a bit. She didn't look well, she seemed to be trying to hold on to the tree so she wouldn't fall.
-Oh, yeah. I just felt a little dizzy- she tried to lie, but she felt another dizziness sweep through her and she winced at the pain. Then came to her mind that maybe someone was channeling her bloodline.
-You don't look well. You're paler than usual and you look like you're gonna fall- Matt clarified while he grabbed her arm and kept her from wobbling. The older girl tried to think of something.
-Maybe something made me feel bad, or my blood pressure raised. Sometimes my blood pressure rises, maybe a little rest will be enough- she tried to make something up but her head and body hurt.
-Maybe that's why your nose is bleeding- the younger one commented, and she touched her nose feeling a little of blood dripping down- Do you want me to take you to the hospital?- he offered worried about the girl.
-No, I'm fine. Maybe some medicine and some rest will do me good- she affirmed hoping that he would accept. Matt seemed a bit hesitant, but after some back and forth the girl convinced him to take her home and let her rest since her brothers would be going to see her in a while.
Stefan had found Damon, who discovered that Katherine wasn't in the tomb and threw a bag of blood that he had brought for her against the wall in anger. Outside, Elena watched as the Bennetts opened the tomb and Anna took the chance to escape with Pearl, since the witches were getting tired Elena went inside to look for the Salvatores. Stefan was insisting Damon to get out or they would be trapped, but his brother was only thinking about how it was possible that the oldest vampire wasn't trapped there if they had trapped her equally.
Then Elena found them and convinced Damon to get out of the tomb. Bonnie and Sheila were still reciting the spell but they were getting exhausted and didn't know if they could keep doing it for much longer, luckily for them at that moment Damon escaped from the tomb followed by Elena and Stefan, then the doors to the tomb were closed and the torches they had set up earlier were extinguished. On the way out Stefan and Elena checked on Jeremy after he'd been kidnapped by Anna while Damon was left standing in the middle of the woods feeling miserable and lost. Elena, feeling bad about what had happened to him, went over to him and hugged him while telling him how she lamented the revelation about Katherine.
After arriving home and saying goodbye to Matt, to whom she repeated that her brothers were going to see her in a while and that she was feeling better, Caroline picked up her phone and dialed a number.
-Stefan, it's me Caroline. I don't know what the hell you and Damon are doing, but if I'm right in what I believe and you're responsible, you'll pay for this. And very dearly. Talk to you tomorrow- she left a message and hung up, then lay down on the couch and closed her eyes, falling asleep instantly.
Caroline woke up on the couch in her living remembering little of what had happened earlier, but remembering it and knowing that she was on her mind she felt angry. Then she felt a hand touch her shoulder gently and at turning around after sitting up she saw her grandmother, Emma.
-Hello my little girl, a bad night?- greeted the older one with a small smile, which made her relax. Her grandmother was one of the most important people in her life and she'd been the first one to teach her magic, in fact she was one of the most powerful witches of the bloodline and her role model.
-Hi grandma, it seems that it was- she commented with a bit of humor as she didn't feel the effect of the discomfort she had felt in the woods- You all were channeled, right? I guess so since you tend to use the power of the lineage in the air to talk to me here- she admitted crossing her legs.
-I am sorry to say yes, little witch. Sheila Bennett channeled us using Stefan's blood- the witch began the story- Do not blame your brother, he believed that nothing bad would happen to you otherwise he would not have done it- clarified before her granddaughter got angry with the guy.
-But I don't understand, why did she channel you? And why didn't he tell me?- she inquired confused about that part, maybe it was related to Damon's previous attitude.
-She channeled you because with Bonnie they opened the tomb to free Katherine while Stefan killed the vampires, but Sheila wanted to use our power in case of an emergency. She hid the truth from him to get the blood- she finished seeing Caroline's surprised face, and it wasn't for less considering everything they had hidden in her face.
-What? They opened the tomb and they didn't tell me?- she exclaimed irritated, standing up to walk around.
-Calm down, honey. There's nothing you can do, but they are going to get a big surprise- hinted Emma staring at her, and Caroline knew that it wasn't worth asking since she wouldn't tell her anything- What I can tell you is that it was a bad night for the three of you, try to be a bit more patient than usual with them for a little while- she advised without talking about Katherine.
-So I can't tell Stefan and Damon not to do something crazy like this again with an angry tone?- insinuated the heretic sitting back down with the witch.
-They did not know this was going to happen. Tomorrow you can explain to them, calmly and gently, that they should not give their blood to channel you without permission- she recommended taking her shoulders and remarking how she could do it, after all she knew well her granddaughter's character.
-Okay, I'll do whatever you say- she accepted calmer and they smiled, after talking a little more Caroline was about to go to rest for real when she decided to ask something else- Hey grandma, what do you think about Matt?- she wanted to know, Emma had always given her her opinion about her boyfriends.
-Well, sometimes I like him and sometimes I do not. And I hope that for his sake he does not hurt you- she clarified a bit seriously, that boy wasn't much to her liking because of what he was doing with her granddaughter and he was still obsessed with the copy- Besides honey, you know I already have a favourite- she reminded her with some humor while smiling.
-I know very well who is it- she added while chuckling- And I have to say that it's mine too- she revealed with a small smile a bit melancholic. Emma looked at her and knew instantly who she was thinking of.
-Don't worry Caroline, be optimistic- she assured confident, encouraging the younger one a little and after a hug they said goodbye and the heretic fell asleep for real this time.
After quickly escaping from the tomb, Anna and Pearl returned to the motel room where the girl was. The younger girl turned on the light as she entered and was surprised to find Damon, who was sitting in an armchair in the corner of the room.
-You knew Katherine wasn't in there- the younger guy hinted as he stared at them. After the result of opening the tomb he'd decided to focus on anger instead of sadness.
-You wouldn't have helped me- clarified Anna intercalating her gaze between him and the floor due to the look on his face. Damon's face remained just as serious, but then he quickly sped towards Pearl and grabbed her by the throat to strangle her tightly, scaring Anna.
-No! No!- demanded the girl approaching them and tried to separate the vampire from her mother, that grabbed his arm to try to get him let her go without success because of how weak she was.
-Why do you get a happy ending?- he questioned, barely opening his mouth and frowning slightly, feeling several things at the same time. Among them he felt fury, pain, sadness, confusion, spite and most of all disappointment and betrayal.
-Damon, please! You wouldn't have helped me, you know you wouldn't have!- she repeated desperate trying to make him let Pearl go. Then the youngest vampire took her by the neck as well as her mother to stop her from pushing him, without taking his eyes off Pearl.
-Why do you get it and I don't?- the guy continued to ask, clouded by his emotions.
-The guard. The one at the church, the one who locked us in. She promised to turn him. He was obsessed with her, she had him under her spell, like everyone else. He let her go- Pearl revealed, barely managing to speak considering the strength the vampire was putting on her neck. As she recounted the facts, Damon's face had gone from scowling in rage to bewilderment and pain. Then he released them both and Anna wrapped Pearl in her arms.
-Last time I saw her was in Chicago in 1983. She knew where you were, Damon. She didn't care- admitted Anna hugging her mother while she stared at Damon, feeling a little bad upon seeing the youngest vampire's face of suffering and devastation- Sorry- she added as she looked at him sadly for a moment longer and hugged her mother tightly. Damon looked at nothing feeling as if his heart was breaking and left them.
After talking to Elena to know how she was and promising to call her after checking on his brother, Stefan got into the living room of the boarding house and found Damon, who was sitting in front of the fireplace staring into the fire. Feeling very bad to see the vampire like this, Stefan sat down next to him and stood silently just offering his support since he knew that he wouldn't want to talk about it, which Damon inwardly appreciated.
Elena had gone to Bonnie's grandmother's house to keep them both company. After getting her grandmother to go to bed, Bonnie made some tea and brought it to Sheila who was with her eyes closed and lying down. She stared at the older witch and got the feeling that something was wrong so she started calling her as she shook her harder and harder. Bonnie started screaming and crying for her, calling Elena who at seeing the scene in front of her ran for the phone and called an ambulance, while the witch grabbed her grandmother's grimoire to find a spell to help her. The brunette approached Bonnie and wrapped her in her arms in a tight embrace while she continued to cry inconsolably.
What no one knew, was that a pool of blood had been left on the tomb due to the bag Damon had carried in there. There was a vampire sitting under the drops of blood that were falling and creating that pool, the blood fell over him giving him the strength that he needed to walk to the door of the tomb and he opened it and managed to get out. He then slowly walked outside and left the place, he raised his head looking at the night sky at finally being free.
And that's all for now! I hope that it was a good part, I have mixed feelings with this one for Caroline's last scene, I don't know if it was confusing, and I don't know if it's good so please tell me if it was.
Now, according to the tvd wiki fandom the siphoners can't channel but it doesn't say if their lineages can be channeled anyway, so in my story the bloodline of a siphoner can be channeled through their blood and sometimes it'll hurt like happens with any other witch, and later I will explain why the vampire blood works too. So, if someone wants to channel the Salvatore bloodline they use Caroline's (or her brothers) blood and that's all. And also, when the magic is channeled it's in the air, so the witches of said bloodline can use it as they want (for the sake of the plot both of these things are possible hahaha). I hope that it was understandable, tell me if you have any question. See you soon!
Chapter 15 - A Few Good Men:
Stefan tries to get information with Damon, who tries to piss off Alaric at the fundraising event, without knowing the effect it would have on Elena. Caroline meets Matt's mother and despairs, since she seems willing to let her know her opinion of her.
