Stefan P.O.V
When I got back home after comforting Elena there wasn't anyone downstairs I could hear someone crying upstairs. I went up and it came from Siena and Damon room the door was closed. So I knocked on the door and Siena told me she wanted to be left alone I could hear her trying to control her tears. What had happened for her to be this upset? I looked round for Damon and he was nowhere to be seen in the house. I swear if was the one who upset her I'll kill him.
I couldn't sleep at all last night all I could hear was Siena cries. I wanted to go in that room and comfort her but every attempt I made she insisted she wanted to be alone. Damon didn't even come home last night so if they have had another argument. Damon probably gone on a rampage somewhere. I walked over to my desk and sat down with my journal; I took a deep breath and began to write in my journal.
'She's been spiralling since her transition and at times I barely recognize her. But now, for the first time in a while, there's hope'
'Somewhere in the world, there's a cure for vampires. If I can get it, Elena can be human again. I can give her back her life'
'So, that's what I need to do. No matter what Klaus asks, no matter what lies I have to tell or secrets I have to keep, I'll do it. No matter what it takes? The only thing that will stop me pursing this journey is that Siena is part of all this too. If any harm would come to Siena I wouldn't be able to live with myself'
I put my pen down and my phone went off I looked at the screen and I had a new message from Klaus
Klaus: We have a problem
I called him straight away I knew that he was in Italy now. He told me how Connor had escaped from his torcher device and his stupid hybrid Nate, he really weren't happy at all
"How the hell did Connor escape?" Now Jeremy and Siena were both again in danger with Connor on the loose.
"I'd blame my numbing incompetence, but pointing fingers isn't going to help me, you're going to help me" Where the hell did he want me to start looking for him? He would be anywhere Klaus away thinks things are always so simple.
"Well, he could be anywhere now" I told him firmly.
"Think, Stefan, he took the hybrid's head which means he wants werewolf toxin" Conner wasn't planning on leaving town then.
"Which means he plans to stay in Mystic Falls to kill vampires" Of course he would and I can guess who he planning to go for.
"Which is a pity, as I'm half the world away digging up a dead hunter, you'll have no access to my blood and therefore, the antidote, nevertheless, his tattoo is our only map to the cure, so your task is quite simple; find him, catch him, and above all, keep him alive he's no good to us dead" Klaus warned me. Yeah like that would be easy Damon after his blood after what Conner did to Siena.
"Damon's been looking everywhere for him, if they cross paths...." I began to tell him but Klaus cut me off.
"You'll need to keep Damon in check" Well if Damon knew everything it would be easier to keep him in check.
"Be a lot easier if I could just tell him the truth" I told him hoping Klaus would have changed his mind.
"You trust Damon with the cure? I imagine he prefers Elena the way she is" he teased me; here we go again he always had to bring that up.
"Nice try, Klaus but I trust Damon a hell of a lot more than I trust you" I told him firmly.
"And I trust only one person Stefan and that is Siena. I do not even trust my own family which is why my sister is lying daggered in a box. The more who find out about the cure, the more who will go after it. Nations have gone to war over less. You mark my words, tell one soul and I will throw the hunter's sword in the Mediterranean and we can end this quest right now. Am I understood?" He threaten me and I didn't say a word and hung up on him. What was I mean to do? I'm meant to stop Damon from killing the man who hurt his wife. That not going to be an easy task. I see me and Damon are going to have a lot of disagreement but I have to lie to him I can't tell him about the cure.
Siena P.O.V
The talk Julian and I had last night has left me questioning my life what my actual purpose of me even being on this earth. Well let put it this way in chess you play all your pawns and you bring forward your knights and bishops to protect the queen. Well I'm living in a game of chess I'm what you call 'the queen'. Julian had opened my eyes to the world of the supernatural and what I needed to do. Which scared me it wasn't my life I was risking but the life of my unborn child too. He had left me with all this knowledge of why the five wanted me and I couldn't process it all in my head. The worst part is that I can't even turn to anyone about it. If they knew what dimidium sanguinis purpose is to all of this I don't know how they will react or even do to me. I couldn't believe everything I had heard I had to keep all of this to myself. I really don't know if I'm that strong to do that, Julian tried to comfort me. I totally flipped out at him telling him it was his and his mother fault. I was born with this fate that lay ahead of me.
I cried myself to sleep in the end Stefan kept trying to come in and check on me. I couldn't face him or anyone not after what I had heard. I needed time on my own to try and figure out how I could stop any of this from happening.
I woke up really early and I got out of bed and made my way to the bathroom I passed the mirror and I looked at myself. I looked terrible I needed to trying and have normal day that what I'm going to do. I'll go to the grill and have something to eat because this dam house still don't have any food plus. I didn't have to see either Salvatore's either I don't think I'm still ready to face them.
I got into the shower and I washed my body and hair when I got out I wrapped a towel round me and went into the bedroom. I picked out some casual clothes jeans and a blue checked shirt I dried myself and got changed. I grabbed my tan boots and put them on and my tan leather jacket. I opened the door and made sure I didn't make a lot of noise I didn't want either of them to come out of their rooms. I crept out of the house and got into my car and began to drive into town. I parked my car and I got out and walked toward the door of the grill the closed sign was up. Matt saw me and walked over to open the door.
"Hey Siena your early" he told me as he was letting me in, I turned to him.
"I didn't think craving kicked in this early but I really want a bowl of curly fires" I told him with a smile I was totally lying but I hoped he didn't notice.
"Yeah sure I'll get that done for you let me set up first" I smiled at him while I sat at the bar Matt was on his phone "Really? Jeremy, you're half an hour late. Get here now" He demanded down the phone, he hung up and walked over and starts to put down the chairs from the table tops. I got up and went to help him. He looked at me and smiled then a girl walked in she looked a little nervous as she approached us.
"Uh... Matt?" She spoke nervously, she seemed like a sweet girl, Matt looked up and smiled.
"Uh, hey, April We don't open until eleven" he told her, very smooth Matt you can clearly see the girl likes him.
"Oh, sorry, I wasn't like trying to scare you or stalk you or whatever. I just - I came to ask if you've seen Rebekah" she looked at me I smiled at her I hope she didn't think that something going on with me and Matt.
"Why would I have seen Rebekah?" Matt asked taking another chair down.
"Oh, I just assumed... I mean, aren't you guys kind of like a thing?" Matt and I both began to chuckle while April was frowning at the both of us.
"Rebekah and I are not a thing" Matt confirmed to her. I gave April an apologetic smile she walked closer towards Matt.
"Well, I - I mean I'm worried about her, she said she'd help me find stuff out about the fire that killed my dad and then she just - disappeared" she said, hold on I saw her yesterday.
"Trust me that's the least of your problems" I heard a familiar voice say I felt my heart accelerate. I turned around and Connor pushes Jeremy into the room then April and Matt turn around, startled. Matt runs in front of April and me then Connor come up behind Jeremy again and places the knife back against his throat. Normal day??? I think that not going to happen.
Damon P.O.V
After what had happened between Elena and I at the frap party. I couldn't get out of my head why did Elena come on to me? She in love with Stefan for a start and I'm married to her sister. Granted that Siena and I aren't on best of terms but still what was she thinking? When I bought Elena back home and Siena came out of the house. Reality set in I looked at her and there was so much hurt in her eyes when she looked at me. She didn't even acknowledge Elena or myself I swear I saw for a few seconds hatred in her eyes as she walked passed us. I just let my wife the mother of my child walk away and I didn't even attempt to make any effort to speak to her. I felt like my feet were stuck to the ground I wanted to move and go after her but I couldn't.
After leave Elena and Stefan I needed to get out of Mystic Falls for a few hours. I couldn't go home because I knew if I did Siena and I would get into another argument and I don't want to add more fuel to the fire. So I went a few towns over and did what I did best I went on a murderous rampage. I need to let out all this anger and confusion out of me. I'm on the verge of losing my wife and we hadn't even been married a month I knew I weren't cut out for this to be a husband.
I went back to the boarding house and when I walked in there wasn't anyone there. I search every room in the house and Stefan and Siena weren't anywhere in sight. I even called both of their phones and neither of them answered. I kind of expected Siena to ignore my calls but Stefan? Elena better not of told him about what happened last night between us because that would drive Siena further away from me. I got in my car and began to drive to Elena house. I got out of the car and I walked up the path to Elena house, I opened the door and headed straight upstairs. Elena opens her bedroom door and I walked passed her into her room.
"Excuse me? What are you doing?" she said a little annoyed, I turned to her.
"Where's Stefan?" I demanded she began to frown. She had to know why stefan was acting shady not answering any of my calls.
"Okay, uh, good morning to you too" I'm not in the mood for Elena snarky comments.
"He's not answering his phone and he's not here, which you know, big deal, we've only got a killer vampire hunter on the loose" Elena didn't know about Jeremy and Siena being able to see the hunter tattoo. Also the fact that Siena was important to their stupid quest.
"I haven't talked to him yet today" She spoke to me a little nervous now, ok so maybe he still pissed at me.
"Hmm" I walks towards Elena and stuck out my hand "Give me your phone, maybe he's dodging me" Elena starts digging through her purse for her phone.
"Why would he be dodging you?" Elena asked with confusion. Oh I don't know she probably confessed everything to him last night.
"Oh, I don't know, maybe the hot, sweaty dance party business" Elena looks up "I figured you spilled your guilty, little guts the minute I left last night" Elena says nothing and continues to search for her phone "Ohhh, you didn't tell him, did you?" I said a little surprised and with a lot of relief.
"No, Damon, I didn't tell him that I got high on blood like some crackhead and then dirty danced with you. It was a mistake, okay I wasn't myself and besides, he's already got enough to deal with trying to get me through this vampire stuff. Then there Siena she always not liked our closeness since she walked in on me kissing you" Elena hands me her phone I began to dial Stefan number.
"No, I see, it's just a classic shame spiral" I told her, Elena shook her head.
"I'm not in a shame spiral" Elena told me firmly.
"Oh, you so are, Newbie vampire remorse? Oof, it's worse than a hangover" I told her, she needed to be honest with herself.
"I'm not in a shame spiral, Damon" she told me, I rolled my eyes then I heard Stefan voicemail.
"Hey it's Stefan, leave a message" I hung up, Elena and I looked at each other a little worried.
"So, either he's dodging both of us" I said then Elena added.
"Or something's wrong" she said, I'm going with Elena option.
Siena P.O.V
I don't know what the hell going on but Connor guy had finally lost it. He holding Jeremy at knife point and I can't do anything about it. I thought Nic had him strapped to that torcher device thing. This not looking good at all with April looked frighten and I could see Matt's hands were shaking. I had to think of a way to get us out of here.
"Sit down! SIT DOWN!" Connor demanded while he still had Jeremy in a headlock and walks forward. April and Matt back up and sit down I stood there and Connor pushes Jeremy down into a chair next to them "Siena, give me your phone" What the hell did he want with my phone? I needed to reason with him.
"At least let April go, she doesn't have anything to do with this" I tried to reason with him but he glared at me. I don't think it was actually working.
"She has everything to do with this" I handed Connor my phone "Her and her father, plus, she and I have history" He spoke to me as he was looking through my phone. Great we are dealing with a rouge hunter who has completely lost the plot.
"What are you talking about? I've never seen you before in my life" April told him with fear in her voice.
"Well, you kids need to get some vervain and don't just wear it as a bracelet where anybody can just take it off" He pointing at Jeremy's vervain bracelet, Jeremy looks up at him "Maybe then you'd remember our conversation at the hybrid's yesterday" Connor told him and then looked at me "Wouldn't he Siena" Jeremy looked at me then back at Connor.
"Our conversation?" Jeremy said to Connor then looked back at me "Siena is he saying someone compelled me?!" I didn't know what to say to him I just stood there stunned.i didn't expect to actually be put in this situation I hated the idea of Jeremy being compelled but Nic demanded it.
"Would someone please tell me what he's talking about?!" April asked with confusion.
"Compulsion, secrets, vampires" Connor told her, Jeremy kept looking at me and all I felt right now was guilt. He shouldn't of had his memory erased but Nic didn't want anyone else to know about the cure.
"If you know so much, then you know our friends are going to come for us" Matt told him and Connor began to smile.
"Oh, yeah, I'm counting on it every vampire that comes for you is another one I get to kill. Now, who should I text first? Hm?" Connor looks through my phone "Damon Salvatore your husband, his brother Stefan, Tyler Lockwood? Nah, all of the above" I looked at him while he sent whatever message they are all going to get themselves killed I can't let that happened, he places my phone down and stabs it with his hunting knife.
Damon P.O.V
Elena and I were on our way to the Lockwood mansion we had all received the same message from Siena. "Hunter at Mystic Grill with hostages. They all die at sundown." I couldn't believe what I was reading. I felt like I wanted to be sick knowing that pyscho hunter had Siena again. I wanted to barge into the grill but Elena tried to calm me down. My wife was in there not matter that we are not on good terms I loved her and I didn't want anything to happen to her or our baby. I wouldn't be able to live with myself if anything happened to her and I swear when I get hold of that Connor I'm going to torture him to death. This is the second time he had taken Siena.
We were all in the parlour in Lockwood and Tyler looked worried about this all and Elena kept pacing up and down we needed to have a plan. I needed to get Siena out of there and whoever else who was with her as the text said 'hostages'.
"So, we each take a different entrance; hit them at the same time" I told them then Stefan walks in the room. Elena gets up and walks over to him.
"Stefan!" Elena said with relief in her voice.
"Where the hell have you been?" I shouted at him, Stefan reaches his arm out towards Elena she hugs him.
"Coming up with a plan" he said firmly. A plan well what the hell did think we were doing throwing a party?
"Yeah, we have a plan. The plan is I'm gonna rip Connor's heart out and I'm going to feed it to him" I'm going to have great pleasure in doing that to him after everything.
"That's not a plan, we need to be careful Connor has Siena and who knows how many other hostages" Stefan said calmly. What planet is Stefan on today? Don't he get it that my wife in there the one who I love is being held hostage by that pyscho.
"Hence, the open heart surgery Stefan. We are talking about Siena here" I said stepping closer to him; he was beginning to piss me off.
"Damon's right Connor's strong, but he's not going to be able to take all of us" Elena agreed with me wow that even surprised to me.
"I called in the hybrids to help too" Tyler said then Caroline walks in the room.
"My mom put squad cars blocking the streets, they're saying it's a faulty gas main we're good to go" Caroline told us, well this was all going to plan out well then.
"Good, great. No cops, no witnesses, no reason to wait around" I said as I was about to leave the room.
"Alright, hold on, you're not all going" Stefan said I turned around and he was looking at Caroline and Elena.
"He shot me like nine times If we're killing him, I want in" Tyler told Stefan, Stefan looked at him blankly.
"He's got Siena. I'm going" Elena demanded, Stefan step into the middle of the room.
"Listen, nobody is going anywhere until I figure out what we're walking into" Why the hell Stefan is being a dick about this all?
"Until you figure it out? Is that where you've been all morning? Out buying bossy pants" I told him, he shook his head.
"This guy is known for setting traps, right? We'd be pretty dumb to walk into one, especially if he has werewolf venom" Actually brother had a point there but that didn't matter. Siena was in there and Conner could be doing God knows what to her. Like vervaining her again.
"Does he?" Elena asked him, Stefan shrugged his shoulders.
"He's had it before" I'm not having any of this now. I'm not waiting around while Siena in there, I walked right up to him.
"Fine. Fine, if you want to take some time to do recon, you get one hour but you need to remember who in their Stefan. We are talking about Siena my wife and the mother of my child!" we both glared at each other "But we're gonna need some extra help. So, where the hell's the Wicked Witch of the West?" Right now would be great to have her around.
"She can't do magic" Caroline said, I looked at her.
"Really? Well, call her, tell her Siena and the baby life is in danger; maybe that will bring her out of retirement" I walked out of the room, hitting Stefan with his shoulder on the way out. I can't believe he wanted to take his time on this while Siena was in there. I really did look at Stefan in a different light family didn't mean anything to him.
Elena P.O.V
Conner had Siena and god knows who else hostage in the grill. I was on board with Damon plan to go in there and get her and whoever else out of there. Until Stefan kind of made me see sense of course Connor going to be prepared for any attacks. If we did go in there what to say he wouldn't hurt Siena or even the baby. I wouldn't be able to live with myself if anything happened to her she was my family. I would die for her and Jeremy. So we had to play this all safe for her sake. I just hope that she is ok in there and all of this stress isn't doing anything to her and the baby.
Damon and I had decided to go to Ric apartment because it had a clear view of the grill from there. I was looking through the blinds and I notice Stefan was on his phone and he had just hang up on someone. I looked over at Damon he was combing through a chest of drawers and takes out some vervain darts and a mini crossbow.
"Who was he talking to?" I said referring to Stefan. Damon kept looking through the draws I don't think he was too happy with Stefan at the moment.
"Bonnie, hopefully. Maybe she decided to make herself useful again" I knew Damon was getting really stressed out over Siena being in there. I really didn't know what to do or say to make him feel better. I saw Damon take out a large map and spreads it on a table I walked over to him.
"What is that?" I said looking down at the map. Damon was scanning the map.
"It's our way in, Courtesy of Alaric Saltzman's interest in the Mystic Falls underground railroad" So under the town there were tunnels?
"The tunnels, like the ones in the Lockwood cellar" Damon takes a picture of the map with his phone.
"Yep" he some in frustration in his voice. Damon put his phone away then my phone starts to ring I answered it and puts it on speakerphone.
"What did you find out?" I asked Stefan, hoping he had something useful to tell us.
"I can only make out the voices" Well I wanted to know who they were.
"How many hostages?" Damon demanded he was still really pissed at Stefan from earlier.
"Four. But Elena, it's Matt and April Young and I'm sorry to tell you this but also Jeremy" No this can't be happening. My brother and sister held hostage by some crazy hunter.
"What?!" I shouted, not only did Connor have my only sister but he had my brother and Matt and poor April who has no part in all of this.
"Those two idiots, they're like danger magnets" Damon spoke bitterly, I glared at him I knew he was referring to April and Matt.
"We have to get them out of there" I couldn't let anything happen to any of them I wouldn't be able to live with myself.
"I just need a little more time" I don't like questioning him but right now the only family I had left was with some crazy hunter.
"Well, the clock's ticking, brother and I'm not wait around for too much longer while Siena in there with that jack up hunter" Damon growled down the phone to him.
"You know, I could do without the coloured commentary" Stefan said a little hurt then hangs up. I'm not sitting around for Stefan no way I need to get them all out right now.
"I'm going in these tunnels" I told Damon and I started to walk off, but Damon grabs my by the wrist.
"No, you're not, this guy doesn't know that you're a vampire, let's keep it that way" Damon warned me. What did they both expect me to do sit back and watch?
"Well, maybe that's it, I can offer to trade myself in exchange for the hostages" I tried to leave again, but Damon doesn't let go of me.
"No. Best case scenario is now you're a hostage. Worst case scenario: he figures you out, kills you on the spot" Spike to me with worry in his voice I releases my wrist from his grasp.
"Stop treating me like I can't handle myself. Ric trained me and I've been practicing with Stefan" I had enough of the Salvatore thinking that I couldn't do anything to save my family. I walked towards the door.
"So what? Now you're gonna take on a professional killer?" I turned and looks at him Damon rushes and grabs the crossbow off the bed. He points it at me "Bang. You're dead. Now what?" I rushed at Damon and knocks the crossbow out of his hand. I grabs it and straddles him on the bed I pointed the crossbow at his heart.
"Head shots no good, it has to be the heart. So, now you're dead" I told him smugly then Damon smiles. I think he finally realised that I could handle myself.
"For someone who doesn't want to be like me, you sure are good at it" he said proudly as he pushes my hands away. So that the crossbow is no longer pointing at his chest.
"My brother and sister are the only ones that are holding me together right now, Damon If anything happens to them..." I told him and he cut me off.
"We will get them out I promise" he told me sincerely. I smiled at him I keep on forgetting that if anything happens Damon will lose his family too.
Siena P.O.V
I'm really feeling on edge here right now I could really do with being in Damon arms right now. Even though I'm pissed at him I wanted him with me more than ever. I've been replaying in my mind why I'm mad at Damon and I'm trying to find ways to justify to myself to stop being mad at him and I can't. I just want everything to be normal again but that will never happen not with all this craziness that keeps coming. I just want to be that normal girl that I use to be before who didn't have a clue about any of this. I mean when I was with Nic he really made sure I weren't thrown into this supernatural world. His an original vampire and I never had any of this drama with him unless he compelled me to forget?
I looked over at Connor he was pouring something into a glass jar. Then he began rigging up what looked like a bomb even if any of them came in here and saved us they would get killed. It would destroy me if anything happened to Damon I wouldn't be able to live on without him. As much as he a freaking ass hole he was my ass hole and I loved him. But not just him but Elena my baby sister then Stefan the guy who had a heart of gold and Caroline, Tyler all of them I loved to bits. I wouldn't want any of them to get killed just because of that psychotic hunter.
April, Jeremy, and Matt sit together at a table I couldn't sit with them I needed to be moving around so I kept pacing. Connor had threaten me a few time to sit, but I never listen to him. I think he gave up in the end April was crying I really felt sorry for her.
"He's clearly delusional, I mean, right? All this - all this talk about vampires, but I mean, he mentioned my dad" She asked looking at both boys, then at me. What could we really tell her?
"Hey, this guy's a nut job, okay? Don't let him get in your head" I told her, she gave me a small smile.
"What if he knows something? Jeremy, did he say anything to you about why he's doing this?" April asked him with hope oh great April bring that up.
"I don't know. Maybe but Siena would know as she was there" he said a little pissed, Jeremy gets up.
"Jeremy, please" I called out to him and he ignored me and Jeremy walks over to Connor. I walked over I didn't want him to anything stupid.
"You said we had a conversation yesterday" Jeremy asked Connor then looked at me. God I felt so guilty about hiding all of this from him.
"Mmhmm" Connor replied while tweaking with the bomb he was making.
"About what?" Jeremy demanded I couldn't let Connor tell him.
"Jer, please" I pleaded to him and he glanced at me then back at Connor who picked up his bomb admiring it.
"We'll get into that. First, take a look at my handy work pick up some tips from the hunter's trade" Connor told Jeremy, Jeremy looked at it a little confused.
"What is all that?" I asked I knew it was a bomb but what the hell did it do?
"The fluid is derived from werewolf toxin" He said pointing at the glass jar "Trip the wire, bomb goes off, nails deliver a lethal dose into the bloodstream" I felt my jaw drop. Jeremy looked tense now we both knew out friends and love ones were going to come in here a save us. I didn't like the sound of that bomb.
"And what's the point? What do you get out of all this?" he questioned Connor, and Connor turned to look at him.
"You know, I used to think that there was no 'get'; that I was just supposed to do Kill vampires that was until I realized that the mark held the answer to why I'm the way I am. The more I kill, the more it grows and once it's complete, I'll know my story and - and all of this will have meant something" He looks at Matt and April "Hey! We're gonna have visitors soon, you two get in the back. Get up! MOVE!" Conner demanded to them April gets up, crying Matt gets up and grabs April by her shoulders gently "Before you think about any other exits, I got every door rigged. Got it?" He warned them both Matt leads April to the back of the Grill Connor looked at me and smiled. "What a shame not even a month of marriage and you will be a widow. Luckily you will have sanguinem nectunt to bring up he or she going to be a handful to look after" I felt my stomach turn as he told me that, he was determined to kill the people I love.
Damon P.O.V
Time was ticking away the more time that went by the more chance that Siena was in danger. It wasn't only her that was I danger but Jeremy and Matt and that girl whatever her name is. My point is that Stefan taking the piss now I don't know what we are waiting for. Then my phone began to ring I looked at the screen and it Stefan I answered it. He told me he was on his way, thank god because considering the circumstance I'm remaining quite calm here. Elena was really on edge knowing that her brother and sister along with her friend were in danger. She was pulling the blinds apart from the window again and looks down at the Grill I walked over to her.
"Stefan is on his way, this will be over soon" Right now I wanted Siena in my arms and I would beg and plead to her to forgive me for me being such a dick. For not thinking about her first because she should always come first no matter what.
"Will it? I mean, haven't we already been here before with Jeremy? Isn't this why we sent him to Denver?" Elena said looking at me now. I gave her a small smile she was right the reason why he was sent away was to protect him from all this.
"Well, we'll get him out of this and we'll compel him down to the Bahamas maybe he'll find an island girl" Elena gave 'the look' "Elena there something I need to tell you" she looked at me with concern "Siena and I are going through a rocky time. I'm hoping after today events we can work through it, but I want us to leave Mystic Falls. This is all getting too dangerous with her being pregnant I can't keep having her life put at risk! I hope you understand" Elena face sadden I don't think she was too happy to hear that. She was about to speak but Stefan walked in.
"Did you find the tunnel map?" Stefan asked walking over, one step ahead of you brother.
"Got it. It was in his weapons drawer with seven stakes, some weird MacGyver crossbow, and the last remaining vervain in Mystic Falls, so how about we get this party started" Stefan looked at me he looked a little nervous. Why the hell did Stefan look nervous?
"Not yet Klaus is sending one of his men, he'll take the front, you and I can take the tunnels" Hold on Klaus is involved in all of this?
"Since when did we team up with Klaus and the Lollipop Guild?" I told him pissed. Why did Klaus even know about all of this. Of course one word Siena his still sweet on her.
"Well, I already told you, Connor has werewolf venom we need someone to draw his fire, the hybrids are immune to it so they're our best bets" I don't get it why would Stefan even think that dick would have werewolf venom?
"Well, how are you sure that he even has werewolf venom? Why is Klaus involved, Stefan?" He seemed disinterested in what I was saying. Stefan turns around and picks up a vervain dart.
"Stop being paranoid, Damon" Stefan was hiding something I knew he was.
"Start telling the truth, Stefan why is Klaus involved? Did he compel you?" Stefan was acting way to strange about this all, he was clearly hiding something.
"I am telling you the truth; this is the best way to get everyone out! But Damon if you really want to know the reason why he helping it's because Siena in there" I glared at him he knew I hated the fact that Klaus still had feeling for Siena. Stefan had to wined me up with that.
"Okay, what is with you two? We're wasting time" Elena added. Yeah screw all of this Klaus wants to play hero.
"You know what, she's right. Screw your plan, I'll kill Connor myself" Elena and I start to walk towards the door then I felt something stabbed in the back.
"Stefan!" I heard Elena say then I totally blacked out.
Stefan P.O.V
Damon going to literally kill me when he wake up.I just hope I have enough time to get this all done and hide Connor before Damon come through. Elena wanted to come with me but I couldn't have her knowing what I was doing. I made her promise me to stay with Damon and to trust me. I was walking through the wood and I pulled out my phone and called the main line to the grill. After a few rings someone picks up.
"We're closed" I heard Connor say.
"I want you to free the hostages" I warned him as I walked through the woods.
"I'll free them as soon as you give me what I want. You and everyone like you dead" Well that clearly not going to happened but I had to negotiate with him.
"What? So your hunter's mark can grow?" There was a stunned silence from Connor "Yeah, I know all about that what it means, what you are" I threw down some shovels, while I stood outside the Lockwood Cellar "Listen, if you free the hostages then you and I can have a little chat. I'll even tell you about the brotherhood of the Five" I hope I could convince him I hear Connor scoffs.
"That's a weak move you must be desperate" he told me firmly, I needed to get him on side.
"Think about it, Connor. Klaus saved your life. He needs you alive. Aren't you the least bit curious why?" That would get him thinking now then Connor put the phone down on me. I began to walk through the system of tunnels with a shovel. I could hear a noise I began to walk towards it who else would be down here?
Siena P.O.V
I don't know who was on the phone to Connor but now he was more pissed than ever. He smashed the phone into pieces, me and Jeremy just looked at each other. Then Connor finishes setting up the werewolf venom bomb. I notice Jeremy looking at a stake and slowly walks towards it.
"You may be a potential hunter, but if you make one move. I'll break all twenty seven bones in your hand" Conner warned him, Jeremy glance at me then back at Connor.
"They're not all bad, you know, some of them, they're my friends" Jeremy told him. They all had done something bad in their past but now they were like normal people they tried to be good and Connor didn't see that.
"Your friends, huh? Yeah, I had a friend like that once she got turned by this vampire I was hunting. He thought it would be ironic" Wow I that why his bitter? I walked over to him.
"What happened to her?" I asked he looked at me and for a second there was sorrow in his eyes.
"I didn't want to hurt her she promised that she would keep it under control, but... a vampire's like a loaded gun. Eventually it's gonna go off" He shows us his tattoo "That's why I got this" I looked down at the piece of his tattoo near the crook of his elbow.
"So, you killed your own friend?!" I couldn't imagine any of us doing that to one another no matter how angry we are at each other. Connor looked at Jeremy.
"Listen; if you're gonna be like me, you need to understand. Vampires kill humans, hunters kill vampires" We heard a noise near the front "We've got company" Connor turns off the lights and turns on the music very loud. He grabs Jeremy and me he pushes us both down to the floor. Someone opens the front door my heart was racing. I kept praying that bomb Connor rigged up wouldn't work then suddenly, the bomb goes off. I screamed I wanted to get up and see who it was but Jeremy held me down.
Connor stood up and began to shoot his gun off, then he walked away from the bar. I looked at Jeremy he looked as frighten as me we both peek over the bar. Whoever it was, was trying slowly to get up he was covered in nails, blood, and shards of glass. I didn't know who it was but thank god it wasn't anyone we knew. Connor approaches him with a gun the guy raises his hands in surrender. Connor shoots the gun and blows a hole clean out of the guy chest he fell to the ground, dead. I was about to scream but I covered my mouth to stop myself.
Jeremy and I both got up and we walked over to Connor. Connor takes off his jacket and sees that the tattoo is growing then all of a sudden Connor grabs Jeremy. What the f**k going on he points his gun towards someone and I looked it was Stefan. Then Stefan super speeds around the Grill and Connor shoots the gun multiple times. I ran to the bar and hid behind there. Then Stefan crouched down next to me and hides behind the bar. I couldn't help but cry as soon as I saw him. He hugged me and put his finger to his lip and I nodded.
"Connor, you don't have to do this!" Stefan called out to him. You don't think he going to reason with him? This guy want going to listen to no one.
"Stefan!" Jeremy said with panic, I looked at Stefan and he looked really worried.
"What wrong?" I whispered to him, he looked at me
"Jeremy standing on a bomb" he said with worry. You got to be kidding me.
Damon P.O.V
What the hell.... why is my head killing me? Oh yeah my freaking brother stabbed me with a vervain dart. I'm going to freaking kill him what the hell is his problem today stopping me from saving Siena?
"Damon, hey can you get up?" Elena asked me, while I was still groaning.
"Ohh, where's Stefan? I'm gonna kill him" I said through the pain I sat up slowly. Then I was burned by the rays of sunlight coming through the window, I lay back down "Ow! Ow!" I said in pain why the hell is the sun burning me?
"He took your ring? Why would he do that?!" Elena said confused, I rolled off the sofa and onto the ground then Elena stands up.
"Because he's playing us all this stalling, getting hybrids, taking my ring, add it up" I said getting up and sat on the arm of the sofa away from the sunlight "He's either made a deal with Klaus or he's compelled" Well it better be one or the other because if he was doing this with his own freewill. I will defiantly kill him.
"When I need to get in there" Elena starts to leave, what the hell is he doing?
"No, Elena, this guy is dangerous!" I told her and she turns around.
"So am I, Damon!" she told me with anger, I looked up at her I never thought I would ever see the day that Elena would be this extremely angry I couldn't stop her anyway.
"Then you need to be smart, he doesn't know you're a vampire. You get as close as you can and you kill him" I told her she nodded and left the apartment. I can't sit in here there had to be a way for me to get over there, then it literally hit me how I could.
Siena P.O.V
This couldn't be happening Jeremy was standing on one of Connor homemade freaking bomb. There me thinking now Stefan was here that things were going to be ok. Who was I kidding thing never work out like that life never work out like that. Stefan kept holding my hand and reassuring me that we would get out of this at least one of us was positive about this.
"Connor, we can end this right now! Just put down the gun and come with me!" Stefan told him. I looked at him did he really think that pyscho was going to listen to that.
"Sure Come out, I'll hand the gun over" Connor told him with sarcasm. See I was right Conner not going to listen to vampire.
"Think about this no one has to die. I'll tell you everything you need to know!" Stefan was trying to convince him. A vampire bribing a vampire hunter I don't see that working either.
"I don't make deals with vampires!!!" he shouted, I need to say something to him.
"Connor Listen to me, if you die right now, then your whole life, all that killing; it'll all be for nothing. You told me there was a reason to all of this and I was part of that. If you let everyone go I'll come with you willingly" I told him Stefan glared at me. I shrugged my shoulders I would say anything right now to stop him from hurting anyone.
"I can give you the truth just put down the gun and let Jeremy go!" Stefan told him, then we heard the front door and someone enters the Grill.
"Please!" I heard Elena voice. I looked at Stefan and fear ran through me I was about to get up Stefan pulled me back down I glared at him "Don't hurt him" Elena pleaded.
"You come any closer, he's dead" Connor warned her. What the f**ck is Elena doing? I tried to get up again and Stefan forced me back down again.
"Elena, get out of here!" Jeremy demanded to her.
"Jeremy and Siena are the only family that I have left. Just - just let them both go" Elena pleaded. Seriously if we get out of this I'm going to kick the crap out of her for being so stupid.
"You hear that? Your girl is watching I will shoot the boy right in front of her! On the count of three! One! Two!" Conner called out to Stefan. Stefan stands up and raises his hands in surrender. I got up to and Connor points the gun at Stefan instead. Elena rushes at Connor he shoots his gun and hits Jeremy in the stomach with a bullet. I screamed from the shock of seeing that. Elena throws Connor to the ground and sits on top of him. She grabs him by the throat and starts choking her. I watched Jeremy is bleeding profusely and clutching his wound any minute that bomb is about to go off. I saw Stefan rush over to Jeremy he grabs him, and throws himself and Jeremy over a table. I ducked behind the bar and the bomb explodes
"Jeremy?!" Elena called out panicking "Siena" she screamed I tried to get up from the floor and I pulled myself up. I saw Elena panicking looking over at Jeremy Connor manages to rip her hand off his throat and tosses her to the side. He rolls on top of her and grabs her by the hair he goes in to stake her, but Elena grabs his wrist and fights back. Stefan rushes at Connor and knocks him off Elena. He kneels down next to Connor, grabs him, and rushes off. I came from behind the bar Elena breathes heavily and gets up I ran over to her and she hugged me tightly. I couldn't help but cry then I saw Jeremy on the floor not looking good I pulled away from her.
"Elena....." I said looking over at Jeremy Elena rushed over to him and she began to fed him her blood to. I watch and I saw Elena begin to vamp out she touches his face and looks down at his wound. Her eyes start to become red with hunger then her eyes go back to normal and she backs away.
"I'm sorry - I...." she said while she turns away.
"Hey, it's okay. You don't have to hide it. I know you're not going to hurt Jeremy with both know you wouldn't do that to either of us" I told her with assurance in my voice. She turned back around and knelt down next to me and Jeremy.
"How did this happen? Why did Connor come after you?" Elena asked with her voice filled with concern. Oh god how do I explain this?
"He said I was like him, because I could see his tattoo. Siena also because she is the dimidium sanguinis she part of their cause" Jeremy told her. Oh shit Elena turns and faces Jeremy not looking happy at all.
"His what?" Elena half shouted and looked at me. I couldn't even look at her I felt bad for not tell her any of this.
"His hunter's mark it's invisible to everyone but Siena and I. Stefan and Damon didn't tell you about it?" I stood up and turned away from them both I couldn't handle this now I had to lie to Elena too.
"No. Siena Wait - wait, who else knows about this?" she demanded, I turned around and Elena looked angry Jeremy got up from the floor.
"Well, that's the thing, I don't even know. Apparently, I was with Connor all day yesterday, but I can't remember can I Siena? Someone compelled me" Jeremy added while Elena stands up. She is furious.
"Siena you better tell me what going on right now" Elena growled at me, I shook my head.
"Elena I can't I'm sorry" I wanted to tell her but if she asked question I don't know if I'll be able to answer. Not after what Julian had told me. She rushed passed me and went into the kitchen. I looked at Jeremy and gave him apologetic look and followed Elena. I went into the kitchen and I notice there was a hole in the ground. Well looks like I'm going down there.
Damon P.O.V
I had found a way to get the hell out of Ric apartment and it wasn't pretty. I had to go through a boiler room basement and into a septic tank to get the hell down here. I could hear Stefan talking to someone down here and I followed his voice and then I finally found him. He had that psychotic hunter with him. I'm going to enjoy kicking the crap out of him then ripping his heart out for in endangering my wife again.
"Good work, brother" I told him, Stefan stood in front of Connor what the hell is he doing?
"It's over, Damon. I have him" No that not how it works he risked my wife life and Stefan protecting him?
"Not after what I just went through, I had to punch through a boiler room basement into a septic tank to get into this stupid tunnel. But it'll be worth it to kill him for tormenting Siena AGAIN" I told him stepping forward and Stefan stood in front of me. Seriously what the hell is Stefan problem?
"I'm taking him with me" What the f**k is my brother on? No way in hell I'm letting him take Connor. No way I'm going to kill him with my bear hands.
"That's the thing, you're not I don't know what you're up to or what Klaus has over you, but even if I have to go through you, I'm gonna kill him" I warned Stefan and I moves closer towards Stefan and Connor.
"You better back off, Damon" There was a reason why Stefan wanted him alive and it better be a good one to stop me from killing him.
"Why? Because Klaus wants him alive?" I shouted at him, Stefan shook his head.
"This has nothing to do with Klaus. You're just gonna have to trust me on that" After everything he had done today I couldn't trust him. That guy Connor put Siena and our baby at risk and I'm not letting it go.
"I don't want to... I don't have to.... Not gonna.... Now, give him to me, brother" I demanded and then Stefan turned to Connor.
"Run as fast as you can!" Wow my brother had completely lost it. He pushes Connor away then Connor runs off. Suddenly Stefan rushes at me he pins me to a wall "You're not gonna kill him" Now my brother was really pushing it! I grabbed Stefan and super speeds around himI threw him against the wall and grabs him by the shoulders, pinning him.
"Why are you protecting him?! Tell me" I told him then I moved my hand towards Stefan's heart. I can't believe I'm resorting to this but he giving me no choiceStefan grabs my wrist and tries to fight back I overcomes Stefan and stuck my hand into his chest Stefan groans in pain "Tell me" I demanded while I felt my brother beating heart in my hand. He was putting everyone at risk protecting Connor and the one person who I truly cared about and that was Siena.
"Klaus will kill anyone who knows" Stefan told me in pain, I didn't care about Klaus I started to pull at Stefan's heart then Stefan screams in pain.
"Then it has to be good. Spill it!" I told him and I continue to tear at Stefan's heart "Spill it!" I demanded.
"Damon please don't hurt him" I heard Siena cry out I turned my head slightly and there stood Siena with tears streaming down her cheeks. "Damon please I'm begging you don't hurt Stefan" She said between sobs it hurt me seeing her like that "I'll tell you everything Damon Connor's tattoo is the key to a cure" She said coming closer to me I looked at Stefan.
"A cure for what?" I demand to Stefan, he looked at me with fear in his eyes.
"For her. For Elena" He spoke to me through his pain, did I just hear right?
"Klaus told you there's a cure for vampirism?" I told him just to confirm, Stefan nodded his head.
"Yeah, and if Connor dies then we'll lose it forever" I felt my jaw drop "I know it's crazy, Damon but its hope, do you understand me? It's her only hope" Stefan pleaded to me. Siena placing her hand on my wrist that was in Stefan chest.
"Please Damon you're hurting him" Stefan grunts I still has my hand in his chest, but removed it after a couple of seconds. Stefan breathes heavily Siena went by his side to make sure he was ok. While I was still trying to take in the fact that there could be a cure.
Elena P.O.V
I can't believe Siena wouldn't tell me what Connor want with the both of them. Then the fact that Stefan and Damon knew that my brother and sister would see this mysterious tattoo and put both of their lives a risk. I'm going to kill them both. I could hear Connor running through the tunnels and I finally found him. He takes a turn around and I rushed up to him. I grabbed him by the throat and bit into his neck. Connor screams I pulled away and looks him dead in the eyes.
"Stay the hell away from my family!" I threaten him and I lets go of him and Connor falls down in front of me on his knees.
"Look at you, so worried about your brother and sister, you're the biggest monster they will ever meet" he told me Connor tries stakes me.
"You missed" I told him then I snapped Connor's neck. Connor falls to the ground, dead, I looked down and I tried to control my breathing oh my god I just killed someone. I had to get rid of his body I picked him up and used my super speed to take him into the woods. I dropped him on the floor and I began to digging dirt up with a shovel, making a grave for Connor. I couldn't believe I kill someone. I know he was threating Jer and Siena but I can't believe I killed him I couldn't stop crying.
"Elena" I heard Stefan voice I looks over and Damon and Siena were with him too. Stefan approaches me and looks down at Connor's lifeless body.
"I need to bury him I killed him, I should - I should bury him" I said looking at Connor lifeless body I continues to dig. Siena walked over and grabs me gently but I pushed her away.
"Hey, hey, come on" Stefan said, I looked at him and shook my head.
"Don't! I heard you talking to him making some secret deal with Klaus? You said you were going to protect Siena and Jeremy! Keep me from this you said that I could trust you, Stefan" I told him and Stefan looks down, ashamed.
"Elena, it's complicated" Damon said, I glared at him, how could any of this be complicated my family were at risk.
"No, it's not complicated, Damon! You want to know why? Because - because he's dead now. You told me to kill him, so I did" Damon looked at me helpless, then it hit me all over again and I began to cry.
"I -I killed someone. I - I killed someone" I kept repeating then I felt a pair of arms round me I knew It was Siena. My legs were giving way and we gradually slump to the ground Siena held to me tightly.
"You're going to get through this Elena, I promise you" Siena comforted me and I cried on her shoulder. I don't know if I'll ever get through this.
Jeremy P.O.V
They compelled me once again to forget about the whole conversation I had with Connor yesterday you know I expected it from Elena but not from Siena. How could she do that to me?why would she do that? She always told me that it was wrong to compel anyone against their will. Then what did she turn round and do. The same as the rest of them making sure poor Jeremy is compelled him can't handle it all.
I was sitting on a bench in the middle of the Town Square, I looked down at my vervain bracelet and I removed it. What is the point of me even wearing this anymore! I looked up and I saw Matt and April walk over to me.
"Hey Jeremy Sorry we're so late, we had to take this crazy detour" April told me, I looked at Matt.
"There was a gas leak" Matt told me looks like April been compelled then.
"Yeah, I heard about that" I told her looking back down at the bracelet.
"Yeah, and we had to stop by Tyler Lockwood's house because we had to see Caroline we talked to her for a little bit, but now I was thinking maybe we could all go get some coffee" She looks over at the Mystic Grill "But the Grill is closed that's weird"She said with confusion I got up I couldn't listen to any of this anymore I need to get my head around it all.
"You know what, it's okay, I, uh, I need to get home anyways. I'm feeling a little over it today" I told them both then Matt gets up.
"I should probably get home too" Matt said, April looked a little disappointed.
"Oh Alright, then" April starts to walk away I dropped my vervain bracelet on the ground then I picks it up.
"Hey, April!" I called out and April turns around "Did you drop this?" I asked her, she began to frown.
"Oh, that's not mine" she said in confusion, she needed this more than me.
"You sure? Hey, let me see your wrist" I told her and April extends her arm I put the bracelet on her.
"Uh, thanks, but..." she began to say but Matt cuts her off.
"I like it. It looks good on you. You should wear it" Matt tells her, April looked at him and smiled.
"Okay" She said then April walks away. Matt turns to me.
"Are you okay?" Was I ok? No really but I didn't want to burned Matt with my thoughts.
"Yeah" I told him and we started to walk off together "I'm just sick of all the secrets, you know" I told him, I was really sick and tired of them and I really need to talk to Siena about what had happened today and find out what she knew about the five.
"Yeah, tell me about it" Matt said I had this really strange feeling with my hand I stopped and looked down at my hand, Matt stops with me and a tattoo has appeared on my hand.
"What?" I said looking at the tattoo. What the hell happening to me?
"What's wrong?" Matt said with worry in his voice, I looked at him,
"Nothing" I told him Matt looks at me strangely and walks off. I looked down at my hand again the tattoo is still there I seriously needed to speak to Siena now. She will be the only one who could see this and I'm pretty sure this magical tattoo is to do with the five.
Damon P.O.V
I'm still trying to processes what I had been told about this so called cure that Stefan and Siena told me about. I don't know what to think to it all. Then seeing Elena break down after her killing the only source for us finding this so called cure broke my heart. Watching Siena comforting her little sister while Elena cried so much into her arms. It was all too much Stefan had brought Elena home while Siena and I came back to the house nothing was really said between us. Siena looked distorted after seeing Elena like that and told me she was going to have a shower. I think she needed sometime alone. I went into Stefan room and needed to find some evidence to confirm this madness. After many attempt I broke into Stefan cupboard to get his journal. I was sitting at Stefan's desk, drinking a bourbon and reading his journal and Stefan walked in.
"How is she?" I asked him with concern.
"Angry, full of guilt, hasn't said a word to me other than that she wants to be left alone. Is that my journal?" Stefan takes the journal off the desk.
"I had to go through six locks to get it" Stefan walks off and puts the journal back on its shelf "I needed something to back up your insanity, you figure out how to tell Klaus you lost a hunter and a hybrid?" I don't think he going to be overly happy hearing that
"He's on a plane, which means I get to live for another six hours" Stefan said turning back to me. As much as Stefan pissed me off today I could kind of understand why he acted the way he did today.
"Well, I got your back, you know, when he comes to murder you" I told him, he smiled at me.
"Thanks. Thanks for not saying anything to Elena" I didn't do it just for him I did it for Siena too. If Elena found out what they knew I don't know how she would handle it.
"About what? About the cure we don't have, can't find, and probably doesn't exist? You're welcome" I told him and Stefan pours himself a drink.
"She doesn't need to know that she killed her chance of being human again" Stefan can't beat himself up over this.
"Alleged chance" There was no proof about this all it was all a little story or whatever.
"I believe him, Damon you didn't hear Klaus' story I believed every word he said" he told me I got up and pours myself another drink.
"Well, I'll remain a skeptic for now. So what's your next move?" If Stefan was set to do this I might as well go along for the ride.
"He said there was a Brotherhood of the Five, which means there are other hunters out there and I'm just gonna keep looking until I find one" he told me, great this may take a few centuries.
"Sure, Stefan, since you asked; I'd be happy to go on a suicide mission with you for a potentially non-existent cure. No problem" I told him taking a sip of my drink and Stefan laughs.
"Yet a couple of hours ago, you were ready to rip my heart out" Well he was stopping me the whole freaking day to save me wife.
"Because you were being a pain in the ass" I told him Stefan takes a drink "Tell me one thing. Why do you want to cure her?" I asked him Stefan did his famous frown.
"What kind of question is that?" Stefan asked, well I thought a pretty good one.
"A legitimate one you want to cure her because she's a vampire and she's not cut out to be? Or you can't love her if she is one?" I question him, he approached me.
"I'll always love her. But she's not supposed to be this person I don't want her to be" he told me I nodded my head.
"Well, if I'm gonna ride this fairy tale to its conclusion, I want to be clear about one thing" I'm not too sure if he going to like this.
"What's that?" Stefan asked a little worried.
"I may not had story time with Klaus, but one thing I do know is that for the five to complete their journey they need the dimidium sanguinis" I step closer to him "Now if any of this involves in Siena and the baby coming to any harm Stefan, and it between her and Elena happiness. It will always be Siena who wins" I told him firmly I took one last drink, puts his glass down, and walked out of the room.
I began to walk down the hallway and I notice my the bedroom door open. I stood in the door way and Siena had her back to me wearing one of my shirts like she always did. She was looking out of the window I couldn't hear that she was crying. I walked in I kind of hesitated to go over to her I didn't know if she was actually going to be ok with me. I gathered up my courage and walked over to her I could see the side of her face and she had tears streaming down her face.
"Princess" She turned her head to me, and gave me a small smile while wiping her tears "Are you ok? I know you went through a lot" She nodded her head and turns around and began to climb into bed. Siena looked at me and there was so much sadness in her eyes.
"I don't know how we are going to find the cure for Elena now with Connor dead" She spoke between sobs I sat next to her on the bed "Damon she needs that cure more than ever. I can't let her go through what she went through today again" She tried to keep her voice steady.
"Princess we will find a way" I told her touching her hand she looked down at my hand then back at me.
"Damon you know if we start looking for the cure there no going back" She spoke in a serious tone. What did she mean by that? "Damon no matter what happen promise me you will trust my judgement through all this" What is she going on about what did Siena know?
"Siena what are you talking about? what do you know?" I said looking into her eyes, they began to fill up.
"Damon I really wish I could tell you but I can't" She began to cry "please trust me" She pleaded I stood up what the hell was Siena hiding?
"Siena what do you know that is that bad that you can't even tell me?" I shouted at her, she kept shaking her head "Siena!!" I shouted she wiped her tears and looked at me with anger.
"Damon for once in god dam life just trust me! Why is that so hard for you to do that?" She half shouted at me "I thought out of everyone. I thought you would understand and not push me to tell you but I was wrong once again" I got up and began to walk out of the room then I stopped I needed to make one thing clear to her.
"You want me to trust you Siena, fine I will but I'm telling you now if whatever this big secret your holding involves any harm coming to you to help Elena to be human" I turned around "I will stop at nothing to keep you from harm way. You hear me Siena?" I told her sternly, she sat there with a scared expression on her face. I turned and walked away. I meant every word tonight between Siena and Elena there wasn't any competition Siena will always win no matter what the stakes are.
