What If? - A Bonnie Bennett Fic

Episode 22

"Why did you bring me here?" Katherine asked as she took in the sight of the woods.

"We'll be assembling with the others as soon as they arrive," Elijah said, "but first, there is a matter that we need to discuss."

"We are going to discuss whatever it is when these people arrive before you all kill me?"

He chuckled, placing one hand in his pocket and watched the doppelganger shift her weight. "There are no preparations of a such, Katerina, I assure you." He met her gaze again after she looked away. "There is just an urgency for you to be receptive."

"Receptive about what?" She dipped her head, folding her arms to her chest. Elijah's response never came even as his lips attempted, which were disrupted by a gasp that turned out to be Bonnie's.

"Was that necessary," Bonnie said while fixing her hair. "We could have just walked like normal people."

Katherine watched how Klaus was amused by the witch's irritation that he hasn't noticed her presence. She was pleased and also intrigued. "That will mean something if it was said by Donovan." She smirked when Bonnie gave her a disapproving face.

"Katherine," Klaus greeted. "I heard you've been a good little tram-." Bonnie sent him a scolding look and he cleared his throat. Both Katherine and Elijah were dumbfounded, with Katherine trying to hide a grin. "I meant, thief. A good little thief."

Now that the attention was on the doppelgänger, her silence was so evident that it echoed the dreadful woods. "I'm sure Elijah has already spoken to you," Bonnie said. That was awkward, she thought.

"I haven't got to that part yet. We've just arrived ourselves," he explained and the witch nodded. They both turned to Klaus for him to takeover and he rolled his eyes.

He sighed. "Well, for the better part of humanity, I will see it that I never bother you again," he stated while glaring at Katherine who arched her eyebrows. "I forgive you for be a conniving bitch that-." He groaned whilst clenching his forehead and Bonnie's phone rang.

Elijah turned to Bonnie and realized that she wasn't even moving a muscle while giving his brother an aneurysm. As she stopped to answer her phone, Klaus noticed the brunette smirking at him. "You've met you much," she muttered to low for Bonnie to hear.

He repeat the same act. "And you are going to pay for this." Her eyes widen before glaring at Elijah who just pinch his nose.

"Hey Care. I'm busy right now."

"You won't believe what that brother bedding slut did," she hissed. "That stupid Damon got her to help Elena switch back her humanity, but she helped her escape instead." Klaus snickered while Bonnie sent Katherine an evil eye. "Bon, who's there with you?"

"This is not a good time." She hung up and sighed, rubbing her temple. "We'll deal with what you've done later," she said to Katherine. "Right now, I need that tombstone."

"Wait," Klaus asked, "your precious Elena is out in the wild and you not dropping everything to cater to her needs. You must be pretty mad." Elijah tried not to laugh.

"Yes, I am. And there are far more important matters right now than a baby vampire that things she's the only one that knows what grief feels like." There was dead silence. "I'm going to need that tombstone, Katherine. I need it to stop Silas."

"Okay but, what am I getting from all of this?"

"Me not giving these plants a hint of color with your blood, when I rip your heart out right before your head follows," Klaus said before forming an innocent smile.

"Niklaus," Elijah muttered, pinching the bridge of his nose. "What my brother is trying to say is, do assist the witch."

"Bonnie!" she exclaimed.

He smirked. "My apologies, Bonnie." She rolled her eyes as Katherine was trying not to be impressed. All of them knew how hard it was for her to be there next to Klaus without taking off like a cheetah with her 8 inch stilettos. Just as long as she had what Bonnie needs, she'll protect her against the hybrid and she has proven it by stopping his verbal insults. "Where is the tombstone, Katerina?"

The doppelgänger shrugged before meeting the witch's gaze. "You give me the tombstone, I'll give you something far more worthy. Something you desperately what," she glared at Klaus, "to defeat your enemies."

"Really," Klaus said. "I thought we've forgiven each other, making all of us friends." The hybrid was sure that she was referring to the White Oak stake.

"We're not friends!" Both Bonnie and Katherine said in union and stared at each other.

"You've got yourself a deal, Bonnie Bennett."

That Night

Gram's House

After deciding that it will be the perfect time to do dishes that have piled the sink, an unexpected visitor banged the door. Thanks to the spells, no supernatural can detect her inside, even when she's rapping to Nicki Minaj at the top of her lungs.

She decided to ignore it since it might be Damon Salvatore with an attempt to breakdown her door in order to get her to protect Elena. Wait, she thought, she was locked up in the cellar, so what does he want. Maybe Silas did something to Caroline again.

"This better be good," she muttered as she opened the door, revealing Stefan. She knitted her eyebrows at the vampire, he brain failing to question him about his reasons for being in her dead grandmother's porch, who died because of him.

"Hi, Caroline said that she couldn't get a hold of you. I was getting worried." She tilted her head, her big green eyes widen and he chuckled while glaring down for a moment and met her gaze again. "We need your help with Elena. We can't seem to reach a breakthrough with her and we need all the help we can get."

"Do you know what I also need Stefan, someone to mould the yard, fix my doorway along with my porch that that's making weird sounds," she snapped. It was meant to come out as sarcasm but failed drastically. "I could use my magic and risk getting burnt on a stake. I know for fact your brother will toast my demise with a half bottle of bourbon while you by Elena's side, sad for her, for losing for her friend," she yelled, "not for me since I'll be the one burnt alive." She slammed the door and started feeling the earthquake simmer, the one she always felt all that time in her nerves.

"Are you feeling better now?" He yelled on the other side of the door. "Let me call Caroline." The door flew open again.

"I dare you." She slammed it again.

"Oh, Bonnie. You spiteful little witch." Silas smirked before leaving her property.
