Katherine Pierce: Return Trip [3]

Elena's group of misfits has a reputation of fast retaliation. To attack one would be foolish, to attack Elena would be a death sentence. So you patiently waited for one, if not all of them to bang down your door. It was only the next day when Damon invaded your property, throwing rocks through your window, hoping one would kill you. All you did was laugh at his childish behaviour, obviously underestimating his prey. You calmly walked towards the door, opening it to reveal Damon only meters away.

"Calm down, boy" you commented leaning against the door frame. Damon growled in response before running full speed towards you. You took a step back and watched in amusement as Damon hit the magical barrier. The sheer force sending him a few feet away. Letting out a triumphant laugh, only escalated the situation.

"I'm human, remember?" Damon let out a low groan, collecting himself from the ground. His eyes focused on you, calculating his next move.

"You don't act like it" he shouted back, moving closer to the front porch.

"Look, I'm sure Elena filled your ears with how I tortured her. But here's the thing, I was just protecting the one I love, just as you are today. The only difference is the intent was to hurt while yours is to kill" you walked through the threshold onto the porch. A risky move that hopefully doesn't end in a body bag.

"Have you not learnt by now that I am not one to take my time?"

"I've heard all about your psychotic tendencies, but I also know you believe in an eye for an eye" he raised his eyebrow at your antics, already set on his next move.

"And so what if I do?"

"For all the acts committed towards Katherine, I broke Elena's legs. An eye for an eye"

"Sounds reasonable" he shrugged his shoulders, oddly calm. A calm that made you unsettled. "However I don't care" he raced towards you, grabbing the back of your head. He pulled your head to the side, revealing your neck. He was quick to take a bite, ready to suck you dry. Without a second thought, you croaked out a spell.

"Phasmatos Incendia" were the magic words needed to stop Damon dead in his tracks. He stumbled back in shock as the flames danced against his skin. He frantically patted the ambers in hopes to put them out. You watched in pure excitement as the lesser vampire, screamed in pain. Just before he was burnt to a crisp, you snapped your fingers causing the small fires to extinguish. Damon's charred skin remained, slowly trying to heal itself.

"Are we in agreement?" A wicked smirk firmly on your lips. Damon nodded in defeat, catching his breath. "Good" with one final nod, you walked towards the front door and slammed it shut. Moving towards the window, you watched Damon stumble away from your home. A sense of achievement filled your heart, you couldn't wait to tell Katherine.

When Katherine discovered the events that happened early that day. To say she was furious was an understatement, no one hurts you and gets away with it. In your effort to defuse the situation, Katherine was already out the door, ready for her next impulsive payback. You spent hours tracking her, only to find her standing in a room of limp bodies. You gasped at the magnitude, Katherine had really gone too far. Every member and associate of Elena's gang were laying lifeless on the floor. Thankfully it was only their necks snapped but the action was malicious. Damon walked through the door expecting to see his girlfriend waiting for him. When his eyes landed on the pile, he went into pure shock. Katherine has never done anything this bold and daring, usually her attacks are calculated and untraceable. Katherine bared her teeth, in an attempt to threaten.

"Touch them again and I will make sure I finish the job" Katherine stepped over Elena's comatose body, bringing herself to the forefront.

"You've gone soft Katherine" Damon chuckled at her display, how could he be threatened by a woman with no follow through.

"And so have you" was her final comment before collecting you and pulling you out the door. Damon shrugged at the comment, knowing full well that she was right. However he didn't have the time to care, he was to preoccupied by the need to tell the team that they were beaten by Katherine. An insult that was hard to swallow.
