Chapter 34: Finding an Anchor

Start from the beginning
                                    

I look back to see both Isaac and Peter looking at her body. I then hear clacking on the concrete. I stand up, alert, guarding Izzy. Peter and Isaac get into protective positions too. The clacking stops and I look towards the exit. I see a thin body walk towards us. The stranger walks out of the shadows and I gasp.

"Where is Isabella Gilbert?"

"Who- How?" I ask stuttering.

"I'm Katherine Pierce, one of the doppelgängers, and I like Izzy more then Elena, who has stolen the love of my life. Now where Is Isabella Gilbert?" The woman asks, slightly bored. I move out of the way to show her Izzy. "What happened?" She asks, looking straight into my eyes, shocked. I tell her what happened. 

"Why do you want to know? Why did I tell you?" I ask.

"She's a vampire, idiot. There is a thing called compulsion." Peter says, annoyed. I look at him, clueless. "When a vampire looks you in the eye and asks you for something, you are compelled to comply." 

Katherine gets her phone and calls someone. "Come on! Come on!" She says. I hear the call go to voicemail. I look back at Izzy as Katherine try again. 

This time I hear that someone picks up. "Oh thank god!" Katherine says, relived.

"Katerina, how is Isabella?" I hear Elijah ask. 

"Well, she looks dead." She says nervously.

"What? How?"

"Well, you know what a vampire looks like when they die. She looks like that." 

As Katherine is talking with Elijah, I see the color come back to Izzy's face. "Izzy? Hey, come on! Are you ok?" 

IZZY'S POV

I wake up and gasp. I look around and see Scott. Suddenly all of the nights events came back to me. Oh God, what have I done? 

"Hey, Izzy? Hey! Can you hear me?" Scott asks.

I look over and see Isaac behind Scott. I see that to the side Peter is talking on the phone with another girl. She turns around and I gasp, "Katherine?" She actually looks scared.

"Oh thank god, Elijah! She is awake!" She runs over and hands the phone to me.

"Hello?"

"Did you know what my mother was planning?" Elijah asks.

"I knew she wanted to kill Klaus, but she said she was going to link all of her kids together with the help of doppelgänger blood." I say into the phone.

"Why did she need both of you?"

"She said that she needed a drop of blood from each living doppelgänger. Elijah, what the hell just happened?"

"She must have linked you to us. She had to have known that having a not human doppelgänger could not have worked..." Elijah says, thinking out loud. 

"Well, then why did she--?"

"Probably to punish Niklaus for breaking the curse. As for your other question, you just experienced what it feels like to be daggered."

"Daggered? As in someone shoved a dagger through my heart? Like that in between state you were in for months?"

"Yes. Now I must go to stop my mother from killing me and my siblings as well as you." He says hanging up the phone. Katherine takes it. I look back at the wolves who are looking at me curiously.

"That's why you went to the ball thing?" Peter asks.

"Ya, Ester wanted to see me. She said she was going to kill Klaus."

"Why aren't you shifting back, now that you are awake?" Scott asks.

"I don't know. I'm not angry?" I say, glaring at Peter. "That was mean by the way."

He shrugs as Isaac asks, "How are you so strong and what the hell is up with your eyes?"

"I don't know to both of those. You should probably lock me up again." I say, holding up my arms.

Peter then chains me up again, but starts to whisper those bad things in my ear again. I get really mad, and start to shift again. When he realizes this, he backs away and says, "Find an anchor. Find an emotion or someone who will keep you human!" I close my eyes and think. 

Elena? NO.

Mom and Dad? NO. 

Jenna? NO.

Jeremy?  I start to feel my heart rate go down. Jeremy is my anchor. He is my last remaining, normal family. We always had a strong bond, and when I started to blame Elena for our parents deaths, Jeremy was there to hear me out. 

"Good, focus on that anchor." Peter says. I focus on Jeremy, on his face, on his voice. I finally calm down enough for only my eyes to be glowing. I keep thinking, but the eyes won't go away. Peter walks up to me and shows me his blue eyes, "Watch me." He says. He closes his eyes and they are back to his normal blue eye color. I close my eyes and take a deep breath. I feel the coolness go away and laugh.

"I did it!" I say, breaking the chains and hugging Peter. I don't realize I broke the chains until Peter doesn't hug me back. "Sorry about the chains." I say sheepishly. 

"That's fine, but we still have to watch you." Peter says, walking out of the room. I sit back down and eventually fall asleep.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I wake up and see that I am still at the train station. i walk over to see Isaac and Scott sleeping. I look at my phone and see that it is 4am I decide to call Elena and see what happened.

"Hey El! What happened with Ester and Klaus?"

"Ester tried to kill Klaus, but Elijah and Rebekah kidnapped me and made Damon and Stefan turn Bonnie's mom into a vampire. What are you doing up so late? What happened to you?"

"Nothing," I decide not to tell her about the dagger thing, or tell her I am a werewolf. "I just woke up early."

"Well, go to sleep."

"Yes, Ms. Elena. Bye."

With that I hung up the phone and see that Scott is still sleeping while Isaac is awake. "We should see Deaton about your eyes."

"I don't want to trouble him..." I say. "Can I go sleep in a normal bed now?" 

"Sure," Isaac replies, looking at Scott. As if on cue, Scott wakes up.

"Well, congrats Izzy. You survived your first normal full moon!" He says, smiling tiredly. 

And good thing I did!
