~~Hope's POV~~
I wake up after the blast from the gun in what looks like an abandoned building. I gasp awake.
"How did we get so lucky? The döppelganger and the other girl that they put out a request to find? How did we get so lucky? This has to be a trap." I heard a voice asks someone else.
(Happy now Hellstarshipper ?)
I start to look around.
"Calm down Trevor. This isn't a trap. We will be fine. We will get our freedom." I heared another voice, sounds like a womans voice, say to the male voice.
Nothing really happens after that.
Like an hour later, a guy walks in holding Elena, placing her down on the couch.
He starts to untie her.
"What do you want?" Elena asks the Male.
"Shhh." is the only replie she gets.
"Please, I'm hurt." Elena pleads with him.
"I know. Just a taste." The male says, bending over, vampire face showing.
Elena screams a little bit, while I try to give him an aneurysm, but it doesn't work. I guess my magic isn't working right now.
"Trevor!" The female calls out at him.
"Control yourself." the female tells Trevor?
"Buzz kill." He fires back.
"What do you want with us?" I finally speak up.
Elena looks my way, eyes going wide. The female doesn't even move though.
"My God, you look just like her." The female says, ignoring me.
"But I'm not, Please, whatever you want--" Elena says, trying not to get killed.
"Be quiet." The female demands.
"But I'm not Katherine." Elena finishes.
I roll my eyes.
When someone kidnaps you, and tells you to be quiet, you don't keep talking.
"My name is Elena Gilbert. You don't have to do this." Elena continues.
"I knwo who you are. I said be quiet." She demands.
"What do you want?" I ask her.
She vamp speeds at me and slaps me, knocking me down.
"ow." Is all I say.
"I want you both to be quiet." She says, walking away from me.
She walks out of the room.
"You ok, Elena?" I ask her.
"yeah. I'm fine. Is this where you've been the last few months?" She asks me.
"What do you mean? I was just knocked out." I tell her.
"No, you've been missing for months." Elena tells me.
At that, my mouth goes dry.
"You should try and get some sleep. I'll make sure they don't kill you or anything." I tell her once I can talk again.
"Hope..."
"Please, Elena. I want to be alone right now, but we are kinda kidnapped so this is as close as I can get. Please." I ask her.
Elena just nods and closes her eyes.
It's quiet for a while before I hear Trevor and the girl talking.
"How's the girls?" The female asks Trevor.
"Still passed out." He replies.
"You didn't touch her, did you?" I hear the female say.
"Give me some credit." I hear Trevor say.
"So you called him?" The female asks Trevor.
Elena starts to wake up.
"hey. Sorry about before." I whisper over to her.
"It's fine." She whisper back before going silent and listening to our kidnappers chat.
"No. I called one of his contacts. You know how this works." The female tells Trevor.
"Did you or did you not get the message to.." I didn't hear the name of the person. Dammit!
"They say he got it." The female insists.
Elena get off the couch and starts look around, me right behind her.
"Wonderful. And what?" Trevor asks.
"So, that's it, Trevor." The female tells him.
Me and Elena start to sneak into a hallway, being as quiet as possible.
"He either got it, or he didn't. We just have to wait." The female tells Trevor.
"Look, it's not too late. We can leave her here. We don't have to go through with this." Trevor tells the Female.
"I'm sick of running." The Female tell's Trevor.
"yeah? Well, running keeps us from dying." Trevor tells the female.
"He is old school. If he accepts our deal, we're free." The female assures Trevor.
Unluck for us, while we were creeping around, Elena steps on a creaky floor board, making them know that we were there.
"You two!" The female calls out, walking towards us.
"There's nothing around here for miles. If you think either one of you is getting out of this house, you're tragically wrong. Understand?" She tells us.
"Who are you making the deal with?" I ask her.
"He's your worst nightmare." Is all she says before walking away.
Me and Elena are all alone now, just sitting and waiting from something to happen.
~~Josie's POV~~
"You got anything yet?" I ask Lizzie in the libary, looking for things on Chronos, trying to find Hope."
"No. And I'm starting to think it's a lost cause. We've been searching for months, Jo. We've found nothing, even with Mom, Damon, Stefan, Elena, Bonnie, everyone helping us. And we can't even do a locator spell, because we can't track down any of her family." Lizzie says, grabbing my hand.
"We can't give up. She is our best friend and she wouldn't stop looking for us." I point out.
"Damn you." Lizzie says, sitting down and starting to go through another book.
~~Hope's POV~~
Me and Elena are still pressing on for answers.
"Why are we here?" Elena asks the female.
"You keep asking me these questions like I'm going to answer them." Is all she replies.
"Why won't you?" I ask her, standing in front of Elena a little.
"That's another one."
"You got us, ok? It's not like we can go anywhere." Elena points out.
"The least you can do is tell us what you want with us." I add on.
"I personally want nothing. I'm just a delivery service." She finally tells us.
"Delivery to who? This person you made a deal with?" I ask her.
"Ah heh. 2 points to the eavesdropper." She tells us.
"Who is he? Or she? Are they a vampire?" I ask her.
"He's one of the vampires, the originals."
"Originals?" I ask, knowing my familys name when I hear it.
"What do you mean, the originals?" Elena asks.
"Again with the questions. Haven't the Salvatore's been teaching you your vampire history?" The female asks.
"The original vampires. The Mikaelson." I tell her.
"That's 2 more points for you."
"What Original is after us? Only two are still walking around and that's Klaus and Elijah. Which one did you make a deal with?" I ask her.
"Very smart girl. Why would you care? Either way it's the same outcome."
I laugh at that.
"Your hilarous."
"Wait, you said the Salvatores. You know Stefan and Damon?" Elena asks her.
"I know of the. A 100 years back, a friend of mine tried to set me up with Stefan. Said he was one of the good ones. I'm more of a sucker for the bad boys, though, but I digress."
"What do you need us for?" I continue. I would get Elijah looking for me, but Dad? He doesn't even know I exist yet.
She turns around and looks at us.
"Trevor and I have been running for 500 years now.We're tried. We want it over. We're using you two to negotiate ourselves out of an old mess." She tells us.
"But why us?" I ask her.
"Because you're," She starts, pointing at Elena, "A petrova Doppelganger. You're the key to breaking the curse." She tells Elena.
"Curse? The sun and the moon curse?" Elena asks her.
"Ohh. You do know your history." Mrs. Sarcatsic here fires back.
"What do you mean I'm the key? The moonstone is what breaks the curse."
"No. The moonstone is what binds the curse. It need sacrifice to break it. One werewolf, one vampire, and one petrova doppelganger." I say, avoiding Elena's eyes.
"Sacrifice?" Elena asks.
"Yeah." I say, in a whisper.
"Which means in order to break th curse, you have to die." The female vampire tells us.
"How do you know so much about this?" Elena asks me.
"I'll tell you later."
"No! Hope, we might not have a later." Elena points out.
"I'm not telling it to her, Elena." I say, pointing towards the female vamp.
"Tell me more." Elena asks the female vampire.
"Captivity has made her pushy, eh?" Trevor says, walking into the room.
"What do you want to know, doppelicious?" Trevor asks Elena.
"The originals." Trevor replies.
"Yeah, they've both said that. What does that mean?" Elena asks.
"The first damily -- the old world. Rose and I pissed 'em off." Trevor says before getting a glare from the female, Rose.
"Correction-- I pissed them off. Rose had my back. And for over half a millennium, they've wanted us dead."
"Because you helped Katherine escape her fate." I say, getting my self vamp speed against the wall, hands around my neck by Rose.
"How do you know that?" She demands from me.
"I just know, ok? I'm not giving you anything past that."
"Rose, she needs to be unharmed. That was part of the deal." Trevor tells Rose.
She drops me and walks away, leaving me gasping for air, my healing already kicking in.
"He made the same mistake countless other had made. He turste Katherina Petrova." Rose says, summing up what I just said.
"Katherine. You helped her, just like Hope said you did." Elena says, looking over at Trevor.
"The first Petrova doppelganger." Rose told us.
I almost laugh.
"I helped her escape her fate. That why I've-- Sorry-- We've been marked ever since." Trevor finishes.
"Which is why we're not gonna make the same mistake again." Rose says, sending a look to her brother.
Trevor and Rose then walk out of the room.
"So, how did you know all this?" Elena asks me.
"I've read journals. Journals that the originals wrote. At least one of them. The others I was told by storys." I explain.
"Who told you these storys?" Elena asks me.
"My family."
"And who are they?"
I don't replie to that. What am I suppost to say? That I'm related to the people trying to kill her?
I start walking back towards the couch that Elena was first on when she came here, and I sit down.
I put my foot on something.
It's a note. Probably for Elena.
I make a motion for Elena to come over here.
I open it and we both read it.
Stefan and Damon are coming for you. --B
"Bonnie." I whisper.
I look at Elena and smile.
~~Later~~
Rose comes in to grab her and Trevors bags that were left in the room me and Elena are sitting in, when Trevor walks into the room, obviously scared.
"He's here." He tells Rose.
"This was a mistake." Trevor tells Rose.
"No, I tol dyou I wpuld get us out of this. You have to trust me." Roses tells Trevor.
"No! He wants me dead, Rose!"
"He wants them more." She says, pointing at us.
"I can't do this. You give them to him, he'll have mercy on you, but I need to get out of here." Trevor continues.
"Hey." Rose says, grabbing his arms, "What are we?" She asks Trevor.
He takes a few deep breaths before continuing.
"We're family." He replies.
"Forever." He finishs.
Not long after, there is pounding on the door.
I cross my fingers. I don't think I could face Dad right now, so I'm hopeing it's Uncle Lijah. (HAHAHAHAHHAHAH PUNSS!)
"You're scared." Elena whispers over to them.
"Stay here with them. And don't make a sound." Rose tells Trevor, before running towards the door.
Trevor just stands there, waiting.
~~Elijah's POV~~
As I enter this old, abondened house in the middle of the woods, I see Rose-Marie walking down the stairs.
"Rose-Marie. Is there somewhere we can talk?" I ask her.
"Yes. In here. You h-have to forgive the house." Rose-Marie says.
"Oh, no. What's a little dirt. i completely understand." I let her know.
I close the door and start walking further into the house.
"So tell me, what is it that gives you the courage to call me?" I inquire, while walking into a room of the house.
"I wanted my freedom. I'm tired of running. You in a position to grant me that?" She questions.
"I have complete authority to grant pardon to you and your little pet. WHat is his name these days? Trevor. If I so see fit." I inform Rose-Marie.
"Katherina Petrova?" Rose-Marie starts.
I turn around a look at her.
"I'm listening."
"She didn't burn in the church in 1864." Rose-Marie starts, while I sit down in a chair
"Continue." I urge her.
"She survived."
"Where is she?" I request.
"You don't seem surprised by this." Rose-Marie tells me.
"Oh, when you called and invited me into this armpit of civilization, which is a mere 3 hours from the town we know as Mystic Falls, I surmised it had everything to do with Katerina. Do you have her in your possession?" I implore to Rose-Marie.
"No. I havee better. I have her doppelganger."
"That's impossible. Her family line ended with her. I know that as a fact."
"The facts are wrong."
"Well, show her to me."
"One more thing." Rose-Marie starts.
"What?" I ask, getting more impatient by the second.
"We have the girl you were looking for too. What was her name..."
"Hope?" I question.
"Yes."
"Well, show them to me." I demand, standing up from my spot of the chair.
"Elijah, your a man of honor. You're to be trusted, but i want to hear you say it again." Rose-Marie implores.
"You have my word that I wll pardon you." I assure her.
"Follow me." Rose-Marie says before walking away, mw not far behind her.
~~Hope's POV~~
Not to long after Rose left, Uncle Lijah walks into the room with her.
I let out a sigh of relief.
Elijah vamp speeds towards Elena and sniffs her neck, making sure she's human.
"Human. It;s impossible." He states.
"Hello there." He says to Elena.
He turns and looks at me.
"Hope."
"Hi."
"Where have you been?" Uncle Lijah questions me.
"I'm still figuring that out myself."
He laughs a little, looking back at Elena.
"Well, we have a long journey ahead of us. We should be going." Uncle Lijah starts.
"Please, don't let him take us." Elena pleads with Rose and Trevor.
"Elena. Don't worry. Nothing bad will happen to us." I tell her, trying to calm her down.
"One last piece of business. Then we're done." Uncle Lijah says before walking back towards Rose and Trevor.
"I've waited so long for this day, Elijah. I'm truly very sorry." Trevor tells him.
"Oh, no, your apology's not necessary." Uncle Lijah tells Trevor.
"Yes. Yes, it is. You trusted me with Katerina... and I failed you."
"Oh, yes, you are the guilty one. And Rose aided you becasure she was loyal to you. That, I honor. Where was your loyalty?" Uncle Lijah asks Trevor.
I know that theres only one way this ends.
And that isn't good for Trevor.
"I beg your forgiveness." Trevor pleads with Uncle Lijah, tears in his eyes.
"So granted." Uncle Lijah tells him before chopping his head off with his hand.
Before that happenes, I cover Elena's eyes. I remebered how she acted when I killed that other vampire.
Rose starts gasping.
"You---" She starts, obviously mad.
"Don't, Rose..." Uncle Lijah starts.
Rose starts crying. No, she starts sobbing.
"Now that you are free."
He walks over to me and Elena.
"Come." He says, holding out his hand.
"No, what about the moonstone?" Elena asks him, trying to buy time.
I get that the Salvatores are on their way, but Uncle Lijah won't hurt either of us. It might be safer to go with him.
That does stop him in his tracks though.
"What do you know about the moonstone?" Uncle Lijah asks,
"I know that you need it, and I know where it is," Elena tells him bravely.
"yes."
"I can help you get it."
"Tell me where it is." Uncle Lijah asks her.
"It doesn't work that way." She tells him.
I sigh, for what feels like the millinth time today
"Are you negotiating with me?" Uncle Lijah asks Elena.
He turns to look at Rose.
"It's the first I've heard of it." Rose says, still looking pissed.
He then turns back to Elena, and looks down at her necklace.
"What is this vervain doing around your neck?" He asks her before pulling it off and tossing it to the side.
He grabs her neck and pulls her closer to him.
"Uncle Lijah, don't hurt her."
"I won't. Tell me where the moonstone is?" He asks, compelling Elena.
"In the tomb underneath the church ruins."
"What is it doing there?" He compells her again.
"It's with Katherine."
"Intresting."
Then, we hear glass shatter from somewhere else in the house.
"What is that?" Uncle Lijah asks Rose.
"I don't know." Rose tells him.
"Who else is in this house?" Uncle Lijah tries again, asking Rose.
"I don't know." She replies again, sounding irritated.
He grabs Elena and starts walking towards the noise, me following behind them.
We are at the door, when someone vamp speeds behind Uncle Lijah and Elena, so her passes her to Rose.
Then theres another vamp speed.
"Rose." Uncle Lijah trys again.
"I don't know who it is." She assures him.
Then another vamp speed.
"Up here." I hear Stefan say. We all look towards the top of the stairs.
Uncle Lijah then vamp speeds up the stairs, trying to get him.
Once he's up there Damon is calls out from downstairs.
"Down here." I hear Damon say.
Everyone look around, then Uncle Lijah gets a stake through the hand.
He pulls out the stake, throwing it to the ground, before I am vamp speeded off.
It's Damon. He's holding me and Rose against the wall, hands on our mouths.
I have no idea what to do.
Do I help the brothers or do I help Uncle Lijah?
"Excuse me. To whom it may concern, you're making a great mistake if you think that you can beat me. You can't." He calls out into the house.
"You hear that?" He calls out again.
"I repeat-- you cannot beat me. So I want the girls on the count of three, or heads will roll." He threatens.
"Do we understand each other?" He calls out again.
Elena then walks out to the top of the stairs.
"I'll come with you. Just please don't hurt my friends. They just wnated to help me out." She tell's Uncle Lijah.
"What game are you playing with me?" He question's Elena.
I then hear an explosion then Uncle Lijah screaming in pain.
The gun shots.
The Damon lets us go and stakes Uncle Lijah.
"No! Damon stop!" I say, walking out of the hiding space.
But before I can get to either Damon or Uncle Lijah, Stefan stops me.
Uncle Lijah then starts to grow veins that a vampire does when they die.
"Damon!"
"Hope! Where the hell have you been? And why are you fighting for this guy?"
"One, I have no idea how I just disapeered. I was knocked out the I woke up here."
Damon scoffs, kinda not believing me.
"And for two I knew him! I knew who he was. I was going to make sure nothing happened to Elena. I trusted him, before I even trusted any of you!" I tell them.
That gets me stares from everyone.
"You knew him?" Stefan asks me.
"Yeah." I say, almost as a whisper.
"Hope..." Damon starts.
"No, I don't want to hear it." I say before martching out of the house and into the car.
The whole ride back to the Salvatore house is just me looking out the window. I know I have to act upset because Damon just 'killed' my uncle, so I'm playing the part. I although, I am going to as Lizzie and Josie what the hell happened.
We dropped Elena off at home before the brothers took me to the Salvatore house.
Stefan immediatly got out of the car and walked inside, leaving me a Damon alone. I moved to go open the door, when Damon stopped me.
"I'm sorry, Hope. I didn't know."
"I know."
"What happened to you? Went talked to Anna and got the journal and you never showed up. The twins said you were attacked, but how could that just make you disapeer?"
"My guess?"
Damon nods at me.
"My guess is the guy that attacked us is the one who sent us back in time. We never saw his face the first time, but that's the only way to explain the fact that I got knocked out and was sent months into the future."
" 'Cause that makes so much sense."
I snort.
"Good point, over 100 year old vampire."
"Fair enough."
"So, what did I miss?"
"Elena and Stefan broke up, Tyler activated his werewolf curse, Caroline's a vmapire, etc."
"So, everything is going right on schedule."
That gets a snort out of Damon.
"And what about you and Elena, huh? Is there a crush that I'm, senseing?"
" Alright. Now let's get you inside before the twins kill me for keeping you outside longer."
"Sounds good." I say, opening the car door and getting out.
He gets out of the car and heads in before me.
I walk inside and go up towards the twins room, before knocking.
"Go away, Damon!" I hear Lizzie yell from the other side of the door.
I do my best immitation of Damon saying, "I would, but I'm not going to."
Josie then opens the door.
"Hope." She says before hugging me.
"Hey Joise." I say while hugging her.
Lizzie jumps up and hugs me and Josie.
After we finished hugging, Lizzie and Josie back away, and the questions begin.
I don't even really hear what their are saying.
"Girls! One at a time please." I say, loud enough to over come the two twins talking.
"What the hell happened?" They said at the same time.
"My guess is even more time travel. I blacked out and woke up a few hours ago."
"More time travel. Great." Lizzie says.
"On the plus side, we now know who sent us here." Josie points out.
"On the downside, I now have to face my Dad..." I point out.
"Yay.." Lizzie says sarcastically.
That night, we had a sleep over in the twins room.
Even though I'm getting twist and turns thrown at me at high altitude speeds, but I know that if I stick with the people that I trust, stick with these people, and my family, I might, a big might, be fine.
