I sit silently in the Salvatore house as Elijah talks to Elena and Stefan about the ritual.

"Tonight is a full moon. We should assume that Klaus is ready to break the curse."

"Elena said that the sun and moon curse is fake. That it's actually just a curse placed on Klaus." Stefan says, in a questioning tone, looking at Elijah.

"Klaus is a vampire born of a werewolf bloodline. The curse has kept his werewolf aspect from manifesting. But if he breaks it...He'll be a true hybrid." Elijah explains.

I fiddle with my fingers nervously.

This whole thing is terrifying. From the sacrifice, to the fact that there's going to be a hybrid running around, I'm filled with fear and anxiety.

As soon as I started to pick at the skin of my fingers, Elijah places his hand over mine.

I smile up at him gratefully and lace my fingers with his.

Damon saunters into the room, obviously having heard the prior conversation.

"Then why are we letting him break the curse? We can kill him today. With Bonnie." He asks.

"Damon..." Stefan sighs.

"No. Bonnie can't use that much power without dying." Elena states.

"I'll write her a great eulogy." Damon says sarcastically.

"That's not something to joke about Damon." I speak in a quiet tone.

He rolls his eyes at my comment.

"It's not an option Damon." Elena says with a tone of finality.

"Alright, how do we break this curse?" Stefan asks Elijah, effectively getting the conversation back on track.

Elijah gently lifts his hand out of mine before he answers the question.

"Well, the ritual itself is relatively straightforward. The ingredients, so to speak, you already know."

"The moonstone." Stefan guesses at one of the ingredients.

"A witch will channel the power of the full moon to release the spell that's bound within the stone. After that, Klaus, being both werewolf and vampire, will sacrifice one of each." Elijah explains.

"And where do I fit into it?" Elena questions her involvement.

"The final part of the ritual." Elijah answers, stepping toward a shelf and lifting up a wooden box. "Klaus must drink the blood of the doppelgänger...to the point of your death."

Damon looks at Elena with a slightly surprised expression.

Stefan takes Elena's hand in his, comforting her. She looks over, silently thanking him.
