One week later
A corrosive, burning pain spread across Caroline’s face and with a shriek she woke up. She wanted to wipe the vervain of her face, but her hands were tight. She was sitting in some kind of room. There was a tempat tidur and a desk. There were curtains and a carpet. anda couldn’t say Klaus was no good host. But despite the nice room, Caroline would cinta to get out of it, after spending a week in it. A hand holding a napkin stretched to her face and cleaned it. “I’m sorry I had to do that” Caroline opened her eyes and looked at the girl. “Yeah, I bet you’re sorry” Caroline snapped. These robes were getting painful. At least they didn’t let her starve, she received her share of blood every day, though it wasn’t much. “Why won’t anda let me go? What’s in there for you?” Caroline asked. Amber continued rubbing the vervain of Caroline’s face. “It’s not easy. Klaus frightens me. And I have nowhere to turn. I can’t go back home. My parents would never understand. They would hate me, despise me, send me away. But Stefan has been really helpful. He’s told me all about vampires, why we can walk in the sun, that we should be careful for werewolves. If I run away it would be very ungrateful” “Stefan’s the one that turned you” Caroline concluded. It was quite obvious. Amber nodded. “Well, if anda can’t let me go, can anda at least tell me what Klaus has in store for me?” Caroline asked. Amber shook her head and looked down. “I don’t know anything. I just do what they ask me to…And for your information, you’re not the only vampire here” Caroline’s eyes widened. “You mean there are others? There are other vampire being held prison? Where are they? Are they in other rooms? Where are we exactly?”
“I think that’s enough pertanyaan for today, Caroline” a calm voice said. Stefan had sneaked up on them and looked rather angry. “Amber, why don’t anda go check on the others?” he berkata with a fierce glance at Caroline. “I already did, they are fine” Amber said, not realizing Stefan wanted her gone. “Then check again” he berkata expressing. “Okay, I can take a hint” Amber said, getting up. “Be a nice boy, Stefan, Klaus needs her to be in one piece” she berkata with a wink before taking off.
“Caroline, how are you?” Stefan asked. “Don’t pretend to care” Caroline berkata bitter. “I’m sorry I didn’t come sooner, I was busy “ Stefan said. “With what? Playing Jack the Ripper?” Caroline snapped. “I understand your hatred, but anda have to understand that I have to keep my part of the bargain. I had to make offers for Damon’s life” Stefan said. “So, what, I have to praise anda because you’ve diberikan up your life so Damon get to live his? Wow, Stefan, applause, but whatever offers anda have to make I refuse to be one of them” Caroline berkata angry. “You have no choice. Just like I have no choice” Stefan said. “Now I have to ask anda something and I need anda to be honest. Whatever the answer is I won’t take it out on you” Caroline averted her head, refusing to look at Stefan. “How’s Elena? Is she missing me? And Damon, is he still crushing on her? Is Elena falling for him?” he asked, sounding worried. Caroline’s face had a disdainful expression when she answered. “Seriously? You’ve become exactly what you’ve tried to avoid for 145 years, you’re on the loose as a ripper and your biggest concern is whether your girlfriend and your brother are hooking up with each other?” “Please, Caroline, I need to know” Stefan berkata and he lay a hand on her arm. “They’re not involved with each other” Caroline said. Stefan let out a relieved sigh. “But they are bonding. Seriously bonding”
Stefan averted his head, his eyes turned red and he growled. He gave up everything to save his brother. The least Damon could do is leave Elena alone. He understood they would try to save him and that involved seeing each other and talking, but it could go without falling for each other. If Damon had the slightest respect for Stefan, he wouldn’t try to seduce Elena. And if Elena loved him just a little bit, she wouldn’t give in to her feelings for Damon, if she had them.
“Amber! I need anda to do something for me!”

“Amber! I need anda to do something for me!”
They heard the door close and wondered who came barging in, until a familiar, female and British voice solved the mystery.
“Anyone home?” Rebekah called from downstairs.
“Ugh” Damon sighed. “I’ll go” He stood up and walked to the door, but when he wanted to open it, the door was slammed in his face and Rebekah barged in. She held a guy in her right hand and a blood bag in her left hand.
“What are anda doing here?” Elena asked tired.
“I came to apologize” Rebekah explained flighty, while she tossed the bag to Damon. “I was wrong to bite you. It’s just that I busted Stefan smooching with that vamp strumpet and anda look like her, so I got carried away. I don’t understand what it is that draws Stefan to women with your appearances. You’re not even that pretty”
“I appreciate your honesty” Elena komentar sarcastically.
“Hey, I’m as open as your legs were last night” Rebekah replied blunt and Elena’s cheeks turned red.

Rachel stroke her fingers through her hair. “Oh my God. What have I done?” she mumbled agitated. “Think, Rachel, think” She looked around. Then she grabbed Gabe’s feet and dragged him to the farthest corner.
She ran to the stairs and went to the dapur where she searched the drawers for matches. In her panic she forgot she had been living here for about twenty years and the matches lay in the detik drawer selanjutnya to the cupboard underneath the sink ever since. She pulled it open and grabbed the matches. Then she opened the fridge and took out a bottle of Malt Whisky. She ran back downstairs to the body. She opened the bottle of Malt and poured its content over the body. Then she stroke a match and let it fall down and watch how Gabe went up into flames.
As she watched him burn a sudden agony fulfilled her body and she dropped the bottle. She fell down on her knees and felt her body contracting and convulsing while she screamed.

Elena took a deep breath and started running down the hill. However, the rumput on the bukit, hill started growing really fast and pushed Elena back. Elena angry pushed the rumput away and came halfway the hill.
Then the earth started shaking and Elena rolled down.
The road that led to the open field cracked open and Elena’s feet got stuck in one of the cracks.
“Ha, damn it!” she cursed and she pulled her leg, but she couldn’t pindah it. The crack grew bigger and soon she fell in a whole. A deep one.
She looked up and saw how the crack slowly closed again.
“Elena”
Elena grabbed the dinding which was raw and cut her hands open, but she didn’t care. With a fierce determination she climbed up and out of the crack. She crawled away from the crack, dodged the other cracks and reached the open field.
