I stood in front of the window, twisting my ring around on my finger, contemplating whether or not to go through with my decision. I sighed, squeezing my eyes shut before whispering to myself.

"Let's get this over with." I muttered, setting my ring on the table beside me, feeling my skin boil. The sun burned against my skin as I spread my arms open, welcoming death. Suddenly a sweet sensation filled my body as I was pushed to the ground by Damon.

"What are you doing?!" He hissed at me.

"I'm getting it over with. I am going to die either way Damon." I snapped at him. He gave me a look before pushing me into a cellar, slamming the cell door closed.

"What is your plan?" I asked, clasping my hands around the cell bars.

"I'm going to find some way around this." Damon replied.

"Oh yeah. That cure that doesn't exist. Have fun with that." I rolled my eyes.

"I am going to speak with Bonnie right now." He replied. I scoffed at him.

"I was informed that she hated you so she probably won't help." I explained.

"I will not give up on you." Damon growled. I coughed, blood coming up with it. "Just rest." Damon demanded, running off.

"So naive. You practically live with one of my kind and yet...you still have no idea." The voice teased me. My head dropped in frustration as I chewed nervously on the inside of my cheek.
