In Salvatore Boarding House, It's daytime. Stefan holds up a cinder block which I punch and break.
Stefan gives me a look "And?"
"That did nothing for me. How was it for you?"
"Hm. Okay" Stefan picks up another cinder block "Again" Stefan holds the block up. I back up and kick the block, using my vamp-speed, breaking it cleanly "Good. Now, focus on letting it go"
"Or we could skip the sublimating part, and you can tell me where she is so that I can rip her head off"
"I don't know where Katherine is and, even if I did, I wouldn't tell you"
I groan "Stefan, you're the one who told me to channel all of my emotions into one single feeling"
"I realize that, I just figured it would be love or hope or compassion, not unwavering hatred for a ruthless vampire that's 500 years older than you"
"Well."
"All right, give me fifty pull-ups"
I turn around, jump up, and grab one of the exposed ceiling beams; I start doing pull-ups as Stefan walks in front of me "You wanted to kill Klaus when you got your emotions back."
"I know, and I couldn't."
I wonder "You don't think I can kill Katherine?"
"I don't think you really want to."
"Maybe you're right. Maybe I just want to feel the warmth of her chest cavity as I rip out her heart and watch her face as she realizes I took it from her as she did to me years ago" I release myself from the beam, landing on the floor "Nah, I just want to kill her. It's that simple" Taking off my jacket "I'm gonna go shower."
《♡♡♡♡♡》
I and Calista head to the grill to talk. Outside of the Grill, Caroline and Elena are sitting at a table working on their graduation letters.
"You carry Klaus's baby, I'm sorry but it must be a devil"
Calista rolls her eyes "Enough guys, It's baby and my baby saved you, my baby will be good"
"He or she still Klaus's child"
"Fine but you will come to New Orleans, you're the godmother"
"You aware I still don't remember you"
Calista smiles "But I do"
Caroline to Elena "Stamp, please" Elena tears off a stamp and hands it to Caroline "Thank you"
We approach them.
Calista smiles "Good morning girls"
Elena and Caroline smile "Morning"
Caroline smiles "Eliana, How you feeling today, I hope you're fine"
I sigh "You don't have to pretend to be nice to me, Caroline. I know this is just a ploy to keep me distracted."
Elena sighs heavily.
Caroline looks at Elena's stack of graduation letters "You're done? I'm only on my second batch" to me "Well you plan to the things as we want"
Calista says "Do it"
I say "Maybe"
Elena holding up her single letter "We have family friends in Denver. Other than that, no one cares that I'm graduating and, to be honest, neither do I."
Calista says "Eliana and Stefan cares"
I give her look "Did they bring you to me to be my tongue"
Caroline says "I know that's how you feel now, but once you get through this hating Katherine phase__"
I widen my eyes "Wait, do you know where Katherine is?"
Elena gives Caroline hard look while Calista rolls her eyes.
Caroline says "No. Why would I know where she is?"
I say "Yeah, but, Caroline, if you did, you would tell me, right?"
Caroline sighing "Eliana, you're obsessing."
I grab Caroline's hand with ferocity "Caroline, listen to me, if you know where Katherine is then you have to tell me"
Caroline pulls her hand out of Eliana's "I don't, Elena. Chill."
《♡♡♡♡♡♡》
In Mystic Grill, a couple enters the Grill while the wind whips their hair around from outside. Caroline, Elena, Calista and Rebekah are at the bar with Matt behind it.
Caroline asks "Is it supposed to rain tonight?"
Rebekah says "Do I look like a meteorologist? Maybe Calista is angry"
Caroline gives her an exasperated look before looking over at me, who is across the room throwing darts.
Calista says "I'm not angry, I'm disappointed"
Elena says "If something is more word disappointing it would be me"
Caroline says "Well, someone needs to do something, before she explodes."
Rebekah says "I got this" Rebekah takes a bottle of liquor and a shot glass and walks over to me "Drink. You're putting everyone on edge."
I toss the shot back, then places the glass on the table and resume throwing darts.
Rebekah says "So, what's the deal? I'm new to this whole emotional switch situation."
"It's not complicated. See that dart board? All I can picture is Katherine's face" I throw a dart forcefully and hits the bullseye.
Rebekah says "So your emotions are on, they're just dialed to rage."
I sigh "Yes"
Rebekah says "Okay."
I walk over to retrieve her darts when Caroline joins us.
Caroline says "What about us? Are we still friends? All those things you said when your humanity was off - is that how you really feel?"
"Caroline, I really don't feel like going down memory lane" I walk back to line up her next throw.
Caroline says "Well, what about when you said, and I quote, "You're a repulsive, bloodsucking control-freak monster"? Did you really mean those things?"
I hesitate over her next throw, then gives it up and look at Caroline "If you're waiting for an apology, you're not gonna get one. I can't let myself feel bad, because if I feel bad, then I feel everything, and...we've all seen how well I handle that." Just as I throw another dart, the lights go out throughout the restaurant.
Outside, the wind is so strong it's blowing debris through the air and the sounds of heavy objects falling and breaking are heard nearby.
Matt, Calista, Elena Caroline, and Rebekah go outside to investigate as the other patrons leave, running for cover.
Calista shouts "That's magic, A huge magic channel"
Rebekah shouting to be heard over the wind "The power's completely out."
Caroline shouting "I'll call my mom - maybe she knows what's going on." She goes back inside as a police cruiser drives by with its sirens sounding.
《♡♡♡♡♡》
In Mystic Falls High School, Stefan and Damon drive up and park outside the school. The winds are still blowing fiercely. I come out to meet them. They shout to be heard over the wind.
Stefan asks "Where's Elena?"
I say "Inside looking for Bonnie with Caroline. I think we should split up. Damon and I can look outside while you, Elena and Caroline look inside."
Stefan nods "All right, let me know if you find anything." Stefan heads for the school while I and Damon start walking.
Damon says "Someone's an eager beaver"
I walk in front of Damon to stop him "Where's Katherine?"
Damon says "Now I get it. The one brother shoots you down, you ask the other one. Great."
I groan "You know, don't you?"
Damon says "Do you not notice all of the end-of-the-world crap going on right now?"
I say "Tell me that you don't want her dead. After everything that she did to you? Stringing you along for hundreds of years?"
Damon says "Eliana, we don't need to list all the reasons that I hate Katherine. What we need to do is find Bonnie. Come on." He tries to pass me
I block him "I don't care about Bonnie. I care about killing Katherine."
Damon says "They're together, okay? So maybe you should do a little less threatening and a little more looking. Come on." He starts walking and I follow.
《♡♡♡♡♡》
Damon and I enter the school while Damon talks to Stefan on the phone. Damon says "If I remember correctly, I think there's an entrance in the basement."
Stefan says "Well, where's the basement?"
I speaking loud enough for Stefan to hear through the phone "Off the boiler room."
Damon asks "You hear that?"
Stefan says "All right, I'll meet you there."
Damon hangs up, stops and turns round to face me.
I ask "What?"
Damon says "You're gonna have to stay here."
"Are you kidding me?"
"We really need to stop Bonnie from doing the spell, and if you get all murderous and screw it up__"
"Is that really the reason?"
"As self-righteous as Stefan is, he has a point. Behind your rage, there is a tidal wave of feelings - all of your guilt, all your grief, every emotion you've ever put off, and killing Katherine's gonna let it all in. And if you can't handle it, then we're back to square one."
"And if I can? What if killing Katherine takes away all that grief and guilt? What if killing Katherine finally lets me feel all the good things that I've lost? Damon, help me. As soon as I get over this hurdle, I'll be me. I'll be able to think clearly, I'll be myself, and everything will go back to normal."
Damon has looked reluctant through the entire speech, and continues to look so "She's strong, and crafty, and you'll die."
I sigh, pauses for a moment, then suddenly stab Damon in the belly with a stake. He groans in pain and sinks to the floor "At least I'll die trying"
I vamp-run away as Damon falls to the floor.
《♡♡♡♡♡》
In Underground Cave, The sound of someone moving with vampire speed makes Katherine swivel around a few times, but they're moving too fast for her to catch sight of them.
Finally, the intruder stabs Katherine in the belly - it's me "Hello, Katherine."
I push Katherine into the boiler room upstairs.
Katherine says "I let you out of your cage, and this is how you thank me?"
"No. This is how I thank you for ruining my life take Mason for me and my son maybe what oh right killing my siblings or handing Elena to Klaus" I vamp-speeds over to Katherine, pull her up and slam her face against a hot pipe.
Katherine shouts in pain as it burns her face. Katherine continues to shout as her face burns against the pipe.
I say "You have done nothing but suck the happiness out of my life all over years. Well, now I get to kill you." I get my stake ready.
"No, wait - please!"
I smirk "Goodbye, Katherine" I make a swing at Katherine but am thwarted by Elena, who launches himself on me and pins me to the ground "Elena!"
Stefan behind her "Eliana stop"
Katherine smiling "Thanks for the save, handsome."
Elena struggles to restrain me "Enough acting like children"
Stefan to Katherine "Get the hell out of here before I kill you myself."
Katherine says "Really? I'm your biggest problem right now?"
We watch Katherine walk out of the room.
《♡♡♡♡♡》
Elena finally lets go of me and we get up.
I say "Elena, How could you save her? She was as good as dead."
Elena says "Yeah, and so was Bonnie. Bonnie used a spell to link herself to Katherine, so if you killed her, Bonnie would be dead, too."
I ask "How do you know that?"
Stefan says "Because we saw her, Eliana. You almost killed your friend."
I say "I don't believe you."
Stefan and Elena "Really?"
I say "You never wanted me to kill Katherine. Why are you protecting her, Stefan?"
Stefan says "Listen to yourself. Your rage is making you crazy."
I ask "Do you still have feelings for her?"
Elena snaps at me "Eliana!"
Stefan says "This isn't even about Katherine, this is about Jeremy and Jessica. What, you think that killing her will take all that pain away? It won't."
I say "Oh, but beating up cinder blocks will?"
Stefan says "No, it's a distraction. Just like killing Katherine, just like turning your emotions off. The truth is, there are no shortcuts. You are a vampire, Eliana. Loss is part of the deal. Look, I've been alive for 163 years. I have lost more loved ones than I can count, and it hurts me every single time."
I say "So there's no hope? You're saying I'm hopeless?"
Stefan says "No, I'm saying you have to face your grief. But you don't have to do it alone - I can help you."
I say "Oh, of course you can. God, Stefan! Always trying to help, and you're concerned for me, it's just like__"
Elena says "You're transferring your rage onto him, that's good."
"I don't need to transfer anything. I can hate two people just fine." I start to leave.
Stefan reaches out to stop me "Hey__"
I swing my fist into Stefan's face "Just like the cinder block - nothing" I leave.
《♡♡♡♡♡》
In Cemetery, Elena approaches Jeremy and Jessica's headstone and reads its epitaph.
""Sister and friend" "Brother and friend"? What genius came up with that one?"
I kneel down in front of it; the emotion builds in my voice as I speak.
I say "I give up, guys. I really wanted to kill her for you, but there's no point" I pick up a dried-out bouquet of flowers "Stefan's right, it's just a distraction, and__"
I twist the flowers in her hands, then throws them down passionately.
I bring her hand up to cover her face for a few seconds, then sniffle loudly and sets it down.
My voice is thick with tears "I can't - I can't do this. I can't-- I can't move on. And I don't want to. If that makes me weak, then fine, I'm weak, but...I can't handle you-- I can't handle you being gone. I can't handle feeling like this anymore."
I sob for several moments before someone approaches me from behind.
"Stop crying over our graves, please"
I stand up and turn around to see Mason "Mason"
Mason smiles "You ruined everything but I'm here to fix it, baby"
We hug and I sob cling on his neck "Mason"
Mason rests his head on my shoulder in relief "It's good to see you again, I didn't came alone"
Jessica came behind him "You weren't the dramatic one, it was always, Elena"
I smile pulling her into crashing hug "No way"
Mason smiles "I would bring our son but he isn't on the other side of Supernatural"
I look between them "Am I the dead one"
《♡♡♡♡♡》
Three of us walk farther into the Cemetery. We find Bonnie is talking to Damon and Stefan.
Bonnie says "You need to get rid of Silas' body."
Damon says "Well, there's a slight problem, Medusa. Even though you turned him into stone, if he gets one more drop of blood he's back to his old mind tricks."
Stefan says "All right, so let's do what we should've done to Klaus - let's drop his body in the middle of the ocean."
I say "Guys"
Jessica smiles "Salvatores, I missed you" she hugs them and Bonnie.
Damon stares at Mason "Of course, Wolfi"
Mason nods "Damon"
I say "Bonnie, you are fine"
Elena approaches us "Bonnie?" they hug.
I say "I don't know what to say"
Bonnie says "You don't have to say anything."
I sigh "But I was so horrible to you."
Bonnie says "You weren't you. I know what that's like. I wasn't me for a long time. We can talk about that later" She smiles "You've got some catching up to do." She nods at Jeremy, who comes up behind me.
Jeremy says "Thank you, Bonnie."
Jeremy and I hug "oh my god"
Bonnie says "I'll give you guys as much time as I can" Jeremy hugs her and they part "But I have to go put the veil back up" Bonnie leaves.
Stefan says "I should, ah, make sure Kol's body is somewhere safe until the veil goes back up"
I say "Stefan, wait__"
Stefan nods at me knowingly "Welcome back."
We smile at each other before Stefan leaves.
Mason says "All of us here, Bonnie said we have limited time"
Elena says "There isn't enough time." she heads to Jessica hugging her
Damon says "It'll never be enough time."
I say "Damon, I'm sorry that__"
Damon says "Stop. The most important thing right now is the twins, and saying goodbye."
I turn to look back at my three siblings, then hug the twin again, crying.
