It's a beautiful day. Ric, Stefan, and I are at Ric's apartment. I hear a knock on the door and the familiar scent of human and know it's Elena Gilbert.329Please respect copyright.PENANAhMOaHpalQz
I open the door.329Please respect copyright.PENANAPMcZ5YONtq
"Morning sunshine," I greet Elena.329Please respect copyright.PENANAj6wMox7kR4
"Hey, how's Alaric?"329Please respect copyright.PENANAR1g7qSVYOV
"Indecent. But fine."329Please respect copyright.PENANAYTDWStXCmx
"So then, does that mean there was no issues last night?"329Please respect copyright.PENANA26Q4ASVD1M
"Nope. Slept like a baby, woke up Alaric. No head minds about dead council members."329Please respect copyright.PENANApLTohfShJ3
"Then why do I feel like you're hiding something from me?"329Please respect copyright.PENANAnSY7W40zdL
"Well, maybe because you're being all paranoid and control freaky. What'd you bring me?" I ask, taking the bag and sniffing it. "Ooh, chocolate muffins. You know what they say; a way to a psycho killer's heart is through his stomach."329Please respect copyright.PENANAZkDWjFrnlN
She takes the bag from me.329Please respect copyright.PENANAE03PRqGPJ5
"They're not for you."329Please respect copyright.PENANAmC6LmCnQXA
"Fine. Keep convincing yourself you're still mad at me. But sadly, Ric's gonna have to miss Elena time today. You know lock down and all."329Please respect copyright.PENANACPRqRAOhHX
"Just take it and give it to him and tell him I miss him, okay?"329Please respect copyright.PENANAGTGLYsyxh3
She hands me the bag of muffins.329Please respect copyright.PENANAuD88sGWIJS
"With pleasure," I reply.329Please respect copyright.PENANArqfgxjy2O3
"Please."329Please respect copyright.PENANAMXcn3wKkQl
I start to shut the door on her.329Please respect copyright.PENANAyCLixapK5a
"Have a great day, thanks for coming by."329Please respect copyright.PENANAluvnWazmr2
"Dam…" she starts to say, but I close the door on her.329Please respect copyright.PENANAUt6uNzLm9F
After closing the door, I walk over to where Ric and Stefan are standing by a saw with the Whickery Bridge sign.329Please respect copyright.PENANAyLcJ5xr66c
I listen to Elena leaving.329Please respect copyright.PENANALS6p6n16Fy
"Walking down the stairs, opening the front door, and she's gone."329Please respect copyright.PENANAMFxK9XByXT
Alaric turns the saw on and begins to saw the sign.
After we finish making stakes to kill the Originals, Alaric puts his jacket on.329Please respect copyright.PENANAj0Ret7wgVZ
"Looks like you guys have got it under control. I'm calling the sheriff. I want to turn myself in."329Please respect copyright.PENANAtp9EhmzAIB
Stefan and I look at him.329Please respect copyright.PENANAiFv1aSXr6T
"No you don't," I say.329Please respect copyright.PENANAiBHRdz9tty
"I have a homicidal alter ego. Unlike some people in this room, I would like to take responsibility for the people I've killed."329Please respect copyright.PENANANjg8ctjvbv
"If you wanted to turn yourself in, you wouldn't be saying it out loud. Just saying."329Please respect copyright.PENANAzfrmYAUF7K
"Hey, listen, out of all the people you cannot psychoanalyze me. I killed Caroline's father, I nearly killed Meredith. Everything's changed."329Please respect copyright.PENANA9bXe8Ze1nZ
"Look, you're not turning yourself in. Bonnie's herbs are working and we have Originals to kill," Stefan says to Ric.329Please respect copyright.PENANAZtEwYokMA1
"His morals get questionable when he has revenge on the brain," I tell Ric.329Please respect copyright.PENANAKZtitsUPul
"Klaus needs to die. We finally have the chance to kill him, so you're not turning yourself in," Stefan says.329Please respect copyright.PENANAHmIfZ7P3H9
I walk up to Alaric and give him his ring.329Please respect copyright.PENANAmxzivuCqIc
"Here's your ring, Ric. Put it on."329Please respect copyright.PENANAup5iIXcgoN
"That ring is the reason I've killed people."329Please respect copyright.PENANAdOGbVLhd5z
"It's also the reason you're alive. You're going vampire hunting, Ric. Wear it."329Please respect copyright.PENANAx9c1XGGXpl
He takes the ring and puts it on.
I place my White Oak stake underneath a pile of firewood at home. It's night.329Please respect copyright.PENANAA1JsPfBNSF
"Did you learn anything from the moonstone in the soap dish?" Ric asks me.329Please respect copyright.PENANA8WevfEr97V
"Why? Where'd you put yours?"329Please respect copyright.PENANAIJCqAjAgAj
We hear a sudden noise from downstairs and I get up.329Please respect copyright.PENANAEs4imN1YTU
"What the hell was that?" Ric asks.329Please respect copyright.PENANAO1wqqfOXNE
I leave the room and walk downstairs.329Please respect copyright.PENANA978896Bfw3
Suddenly, I see Alaric get thrown down the stairs.
"Ric?" I say.329Please respect copyright.PENANAn028Z4nOkc
I look up the stairs and then turn around, only to get stabbed in the stomach by Rebekah.329Please respect copyright.PENANA4cvGfsBrFB
"Hello, lover," she says.
When I wake up, I'm hanging from the ceiling by chains with my shirt torn and I'm bleeding from being cut by a dagger; probably the one that Rebekah holds in her hand, as she stands in front of me. I then wince, as she cuts me with the dagger on my chest straight down. She stops though, when Klaus walks in, interrupting her torture.329Please respect copyright.PENANAc090BEurfG
Klaus makes a comment and Rebekah says, "I am very capable of torture."329Please respect copyright.PENANArTXrEPtjM4
"I'm sure you are," he replies to his only sister.
Later, I have a day dream of Elena rescuing me from being tortured.329Please respect copyright.PENANA7s0mI5D211
When it stops, I hear Rebekah walk into the room from the set of doors that are behind me.329Please respect copyright.PENANA25Z8AxZB3k
"You know how easy it was to get inside your head just now?" she says, before going to stand in front of me.329Please respect copyright.PENANAmwE9E54qjp
Klaus walks in on us again. This time I'm very weak.329Please respect copyright.PENANAsGmUB5n04l
"Go home," he says to me.329Please respect copyright.PENANAItTJhNZX9u
"No," I answer.329Please respect copyright.PENANAAgzCP79QWe
He looks into my eyes, compelling me.329Please respect copyright.PENANA5ORwXEMvhR
"Go home."329Please respect copyright.PENANAUwUHjdTfbM
I'm compelled so I have to do as he says. I have no control over myself anymore, and I try to break from the chains to obey him.329Please respect copyright.PENANA36jl0LB3rk
"Stop. Just stop it already," Rebekah says to her older brother.329Please respect copyright.PENANAeFbjs8Ybdo
She unchains me, letting me go free, and I fall to the floor on my knees.329Please respect copyright.PENANAGsTMdyhQle
She looks at her brother with a warning look.
