Chapter 10: Touch Me And I Rip Your Face Off

2x21

[Adela woke up just in time, Greta out a spell on her she was weak. She could barely move and her head felt it was going to explode. Klaus arrives.]

[He looks at Adela, Elena, Jenna and Jules.]

KLAUS: Hello, my lovelies. Are we ready?

[Greta walks over to Adela she was about to grab her hand]

ADELA: Touch me and I rip your face off witch bitch.

[Greta ignored her and cut her hand, Adela groaned it hurt more than she expected. She grabbed her hand and she muttered something. Adela couldn't hear what she was saying. But she could feel power from her draining.]

[Adela, Jules, Elena, and Jenna are still contained in the rings of fire. Jules continues to moan in pain. Up on a nearby hill, Klaus retrieves the moonstone from his pocket. Greta was still channeling Adela.]

KLAUS: I've got the moonstone. I spent 500 years looking for this. I hate to part with it.

[Klaus hands the moonstone to Greta who takes it and looks up at the sky.]

GRETA: The moon has passed its apex. Remember everything you need to do?

KLAUS: I remember.

[Greta drops the moonstone into a stone bowl filled with flames. Sparks fly as the moonstone is destroyed. Greta begins chanting a spell in Latin. Klaus approaches the rings of fire. Jules still lies on the ground, moaning in pain, but looks up at Elena.]

JULES: Everything I did...I was just trying to help Tyler.

ELENA: Are you Jules?

JULES: I didn't want him to be alone!

[Klaus looks down at Jules.]

KLAUS: Shall we?

[The ring of fire around Jules disperses. Jules's eyes turn yellow and she uses her werewolf speed to rush at Klaus. Alas, Klaus gets the upper hand and pins Jules to the ground, plunging his hand into her chest and ripping out her heart. Jules takes a final breath, tears streaming down her face, and dies. Klaus breathes heavily as he holds the bloody heart in his hands. Elena and Jenna look on, horrified. Adela could barely see what was happening.]

[Greta continues chanting a spell while Klaus holds Jules's heart over the ceremonial bowl, squeezing the blood into the flames.]

KLAUS: Does that mean it's working?

GRETA: It's working.

[Over in the rings of fire, Elena watches Klaus and Greta in the distance. Jenna looks up at her, eyes glistening with tears. Adela was trying to see what was happening but everytime she did she felt more energy leave her.]

JENNA: The day that the lawyers called to tell me that I was going to become your guardian, you know what my first thought was? [Elena looks down at her and shakes her head.] Isn't there someone else who can do this?

ELENA: Jenna, there was no one else who could have gotten me and Jeremy through all of that.

JENNA: It's just the thought that I almost passed up taking care of you.

ELENA: But you didn't. [Kneeling down] You put your entire life on hold to help us.

JENNA: Look around, Elena. I failed you.

ELENA: No. You didn't. I failed you. I'm so sorry. Listen. Being a vampire, it intensifies your guilt. But it also makes you stronger and faster. You can fight back. I'm gonna get through this. I'll be okay. I need you to believe that. Promise me, when you get the chance...[Elena places a finger to her lips and whispers the next word] Run.
