"Tonight, is the full moon. We should assume that Klaus is prepared to break the curse." Elijah informs the group.

It's been a day since Elijah has told Chelsea and Elena about Klaus' curse and having a way to save the doppelganger. Chelsea didn't sleep at the Salvatore's last night. Which meant that today she was wearing her own, none restricting clothes. It made her feel more confident and less like she was about to flash the world.

"Elena said that the sun and the moon curse is fake? That's it's actually just a curse placed on Klaus." Stefan speaks up.

"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.

"Then why are we letting him break the curse? We can kill him today. With Bonnie." Damon announces as he walks into the room.

"Damon..." Stefan sighs.

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

"I'll write her a great eulogy." Damon continues.

"My sister isn't dying. End of discussion Damon." Chelsea snaps.

"Of course, you would be okay with this little plan. Your soulmates get what they want, who care how it effects the rest of us." Damon snipes.

Chelsea moves to get closer to Damon ready to prove a fucking point when she feels Elijah's hand rest on her arm causing her to stop.

"That isn't going to work every time I get mad." Chelsea tells him before settling down.

"All right, how do we break this curse?" Stefan asks.

"Well, the ritual itself is relatively straight forward. The ingredients, so to speak, you already know." Elijah answers.

"The moonstone." Stefan starts.

"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 inquires.

"The final part of the ritual." Elijah states before taking a wooden box off the shelf, "Klaus must drink the blood of the doppelganger...to the point of your death."

Elijah opens the box and Chelsea takes a peek inside. There is a glass bottle, with a white translucent liquid inside it.

"That's where you come in." Elena says.

"This is an elixir that I acquired some 500 years ago for Katerina. It possesses mystical properties of resuscitation." Elijah informs.

"So, I'll be dead?" Elena asks.

"And then you won't." Elijah concludes.

"That's your plan? A magical witch potion with no expiration date?" Damon questions in disbelief. "You want to come back, what about John's ring?"

"Those rings only work on humans. The doppelganger's a supernatural occurrence. Odds are the ring won't work." Elijah points out.

"I'll take those odds over your elixir. What if it doesn't work Elena?" Damon queries.

"Then I guess I'll just be dead." Elena states.

Damon leaves the room at that declaration Stefan leaving after him.

"Do we know if Klaus has everything, he needs to do this? Does he have a werewolf?" Elena inquires.

"Klaus has been waiting to break this curse over a thousand years. If he doesn't already have a werewolf, my guess is by tonight, he will." Elijah replies.
