Fall to your knee's bring on the rapture

{{2024 hey all, hope you're all good. 

So I just learnt that 2013 apparently is when Silas made Elena immortal and yet it's the date of Alaric's wedding? what a long year. I'm just going to keep the date the same because I want to establish a timeline for this story}}

June 23 2013

The Barn was silent. Wedding decor was strewn across the floor, the pink and cream centre pieces scattered in every direction. Fairy lights and chandeliers tangled between the ceiling and floor like the lower branches of bramble bushes. Glass. Shattered and covered the ground like a second layer of skin.

Bodies.

Bodies, littering every which way like confetti. Kai, dressed in his blood stained tux sat clapping himself by the altar steps. He watched Damon Salvatore stand the Vampires eye's firmly on Bonnie Bennett as she lay gasping. Kai had made it so she had been impaled by Alaric's unsightly cherub ice sculpture. The blood and water mixing as it ran across the floor . Kai watched as the vampire's blue eye's seemed to narrow and twitch. The sound of the world disappearing into a misplaced silence. Something in Damon's mind prompted him, to look around outside of himself and say.

'This is Alaric's wedding' his voice sounding hollow, strange even to himself as his eyes wandered back to the orchestrator of such a depraved act. The interloper appeared to be in his own world as he sat glancing at the bouquet a small smile edged its way out of the corners of his face. Damon bit his bottom lip in astonishment something he hadn't felt in a long time. The uninvited guest who was now watching Bonnie with a somewhat amused expression stood with his hands in his pockets, 'She doesn't look like she has a lot of time left' Kai's earlier ultimatum seemed to have paralysed Damon. 

Kai coughed clearing his throat stepping from the altar into the scene as if the main character in a stage play. He lowered his voice 'Maybe you don't even make a choice, maybe you let Bonnie die here and now.'

- No one has to know. It'll be our secret. You and Elena get to be happy' Kai said as he pretended to remove a blood stain from his shirt collar. He knew Damon could only save one and Kai bit his lip in anticipation for the decision he would make.

Damon saw that the mans smile appeared to be bigger than his face would permit. It spilled into the corners of his face like a Dr Seuss character. His eyes shining like the cat that got the canary.

'You've got to make a choice' Said Kai.

Damon lunged for the the lunatic, however he used his ability to get away.

He rushed to Bonnie's side and saw that if he lifted the ice sculpture she may bleed out faster then he could heal her. He thought about Elena and felt an instant wave of regret? perhaps guilt? Though he didn't have time to think about it as Bonnie had already been choking on her blood. He decided to lift the sculpture if he was fast enough then-

He heard a whoosh and then someone tap his shoulder. 'What's up doc?' Kai chuckled from behind him. Without wasting anytime. He snapped Damon's neck.

'Didn't think it would be that easy did you?' Kai shook his head.
