It was a dark night, as Elena walked through the dark caves, looking for Silas' tomb.744Please respect copyright.PENANA7ybGU1RzVs
Suddenly, she saw someone. She blurred towards her to try and stop her, as she yelled, "No!" She got thrown against a cave wall, though. Then her mirror image was out of sight. 744Please respect copyright.PENANAmIIiayxTrG
A moment later, Damon was in front of her. 744Please respect copyright.PENANABJ27KfN4bv
"Elena, are you okay? What happened?"744Please respect copyright.PENANAEnIlrPT1Y8
"She's here," she informed him.744Please respect copyright.PENANALna3Be1W5g
He didn't have to ask who. He knew who she meant. His former lover and Elena's bloodline, as well as his sire; Katherine. Why she would want the cure was beyond him, but he would rather deal with Katherine and get the cure than for someone else to do it. 744Please respect copyright.PENANAYoXkq84vFB
"Get everyone out of here and go with them. I'll deal with her and get the cure," he told his childe. 744Please respect copyright.PENANAtcyHgyu7OL
She did as she was told, trusting him. 744Please respect copyright.PENANARLrr986i2f
744Please respect copyright.PENANAd6651SkUoA
744Please respect copyright.PENANALr9Smthn4O
By the time everyone was out of there, Katherine had grabbed the cure from Silas and had left Silas' tomb. 744Please respect copyright.PENANAImWQUfHDlk
When she was half way away from Silas' tomb a ways, large and small pieces of rock from the caves began falling. Then it was like an earthquake that would never stop. 744Please respect copyright.PENANAXkKRdzO9Oj
A few minutes later, Damon found her. 744Please respect copyright.PENANAjvqcoH5tTg
He began to walk towards her. 744Please respect copyright.PENANAHa3uvnlX5d
"What the Hell are you doing here, Katherine?"744Please respect copyright.PENANAoPPjsliLHF
"Isn't it obvious? I want the same thing you want."744Please respect copyright.PENANAT7p3d4K2r3
"You're 500 years old. What would you'd possibly want with the cure?"744Please respect copyright.PENANAPBuleazsdp
"Klaus wants it destroyed so it can't be used against him. I want my freedom."744Please respect copyright.PENANAER6iFORiE8
"You're going to hand the cure over to Klaus in exchange for your freedom," he realized.744Please respect copyright.PENANAHCzqs4pb4u
Even though he wanted it for Elena so she could be human again, he had to admit that that was a smart move on Katherine's behalf. He had always admired her for her intelligence. She was too smart for her own good, though. 744Please respect copyright.PENANAbqlJBqQiKV
He was about to demand her to give him the darn cure, when he got hit with some large pieces of cave rocks. Then everything went black. 744Please respect copyright.PENANAxmqVhCfAz4
She was about to go to her elder childe to help him, when she felt pain. Then everything went black. 744Please respect copyright.PENANAQeVs7SuMcX
744Please respect copyright.PENANAIr8SSDPvnm
744Please respect copyright.PENANA9wvqiW6IbN
Once he had woken up, he unburied himself and then scanned for his sire.744Please respect copyright.PENANAjy7t2zjlFo
"Katherine," he said, seeing a hand between some rocks.744Please respect copyright.PENANAeRa2wjPvGw
He blurred over and started taking rocks off the pile, being careful as to not make the boulder on top dig any further down. She was a vampire, but she could still get hurt or killed. And as he removed cave rocks and began working on the boulder, he used vamp hearing to listen for anything from his sire. Sure, he hated her, but there was still a part of him that was connected to her. He didn't want her to die. Besides, she wasn't exactly evil. Her life just made her what she was these days. What she did in the past and present, she did to survive. 744Please respect copyright.PENANAuRAeOCr72n
744Please respect copyright.PENANAlIUPZgd8Ne
744Please respect copyright.PENANAZgkT8sKm8P
When the pile had been removed from on top of her, he knelt beside her and looked down at her. There was a rebar protruding from the middle of her chest and blood on either side of her head. Her skin started to look cracked and pale.744Please respect copyright.PENANATQRRh9A3Ac
He pulled the piece of wood out of her chest and gently sat her against him, her head up against his chest. He then bit his wrist and put it to her lips, making his blood go down her throat.744Please respect copyright.PENANAs3zO3rPFJH
"Stay with me, Katherine. You're not dying tonight," he pleaded, but didn't know if she could hear him or not. 744Please respect copyright.PENANAQu5YHfERQD
He couldn't believe that he was saving his sire's life after everything.744Please respect copyright.PENANAT3PwGbwUnH
As his blood went down her throat, her chest and side wound disappeared and her skin color returned to normal. 744Please respect copyright.PENANAkBkpH7daf6
A few minutes later, he took his wrist away, which instantly healed. 744Please respect copyright.PENANAwMwH4qfsrJ
He gently layed her back down on her back. He then put the cure in his jacket, before pulling her into hsi arms and walking away with her in his arms. She'd be okay now, but he had to get himself and her out of the caves.744Please respect copyright.PENANAvoxeFs03lK
