Little Witch

Monster's Ball

I stood in the mirror, as I modeled my maternity dress, "I think it's cute" Caroline tells me as a knock comes at the door. "Tyler!?" I hear and turn seeing my brother as he hugged Caroline and kissed her. "Oh my god!" I yelled and my brother came over seeing the baby bump, but hugged me non the less. Pulling back he turned to me, "What the hell is this?" he asked and I smiled sheepishly, "You're going to be an uncle!" he hugged me again tightly, but careful not to hurt the baby.

I sat in the library as I wrote in my journal,

'It's been 4 days since Bonnie died-- or 4 days since I found out Bonnie died. Apparently she brought Jeremy back to life but died in the process. She wanted me to go back to school, so here I am, back at school-- studying, going to class, trying to move on like everyone else. Stefan had it easiest. He doesn't even remember Bonnie, not that anybody has seen him except for Caroline, who's back with Tyler. He's been a healthy distraction for her, to say the least. I've been avoiding Klaus who has been trying to get me to come stay with him in NOLA.'

I styled my hair and jumped as I saw Celia's next to my mirrored reflection. "What are you doing?" She asked, "I, am getting ready for class Celia, Like a normal student." I tell her as I start straightening my hair. "Well, normal students can't do literal magic, nor are they carrying magic tribrid babies." She points out, "What a great way to start" I say but I cant move. "Aaliyah." she says and I sigh, "Alright fine. Where should I start?" I asked and she smiled.

I walked into the Salvatore Boarding House as Damon says, "Now that Little Witch is here we can start." he says and I sit next to Jeremy and let out a sigh as I sit.

Damon then stands up, talking to us, "So, as we know, in a psychotic lapse of judgment, Bonnie brought you back to life and died in the process. May she rest in peace." Jeremy cuts him off, "She's actually right over there." Damon nods, "Whatever. Look. The whole point is, I just happen to know a supernatural being who just happens to want to die, and in the spirit of nature needing balance and life for a life and all that stuff, I just think it would be a huge waste of a perfectly good death." I raised an eyebrow, "What are you talking about?" I asked, "Something Elena doesn't need to know about until it works." Damon tells me, "Wait. You want to work with Silas?" Jeremy asked

"From the beginning, Silas' whole bad-guy plan was to kill himself, pass on to wherever he was gonna pass on to, and reunite with his dead girlfriend, Amara. I want to use his death to bring Bonnie back to life. To die, he has to be mortal. If he's mortal, then he's a witch, and if he dies as a witch then he's stuck on the Other Side forever." I nodded, " Except, He already tried to bring down the veil to the Other Side. He failed." I tell him.

We then notice that Jeremy's paying attention to Bonnie, "She knows I can't hear her, right?" Damon asked, "She thinks Silas wants to destroy the Other Side completely." Jeremy says, and I nod, "Powerful spells are bound by something even more powerful-- the moon, a comet, a doppelgänger. The Other Side was made 2,000 years ago, and it still exists. That means she must have bound it to something that could exist just as long." I explain.
"Back to my original question. Let's say Silas destroys the Other Side, cures himself, becomes a witch. Is it supernaturally possible that he can do a spell that swaps her life for his life once he--pfft--kills himself?" Damon asks, "What'd she say? Tell me?" Damon snaps at Jeremy who pauses a moment. "She's in!"

I walked in the party, as I fixed my witch hat, and smiled at people. I then noticed a mighty power and went straight to it like a beacon. I smiled at the cleopatra soctume wearing witch. "Aaliyah right?" I heard and I raised an eyebrow. "And you are?" I asked, "Qetsiyah, but call me Tessa" She says and we locked eyes, "Should I call you Aaliyah, or Celia." she questioned. I distracted Tessa while Damon worked his Stefan/Silas magic.

"I can tell you, if you're having a boy or girl" she tells me and I light up, "Can you?" I asked and she nodded chukling. "I've always had a soft spot for babies." she told me, and we go to a private room. She placed a hand on my belly as candled lit around us. She closes her eyes and I close mine focusing letting her feed off my magic. She opens her eyes and says, "Its a girl."

I get back to the dorm as a letter addressed to me is laying on the bed. I grab it curious as I see Tyler's handwriting.

Liyah,

I'm sorry I never said goodbye, but I didn't come fo rthe whole college experiance. I came to offically say goodbye. He killed our mother, and got away with it. I'll see it it that I put him down.

I'm sorry Aaliyah,
Tyler
