"You look beautiful" Damon kissed her cheek. She'd normally wear fancy clothes and no one would say anything as they were all used to it. Her school was also quite used to seeing it. The girl loved dressing up. After sitting in her room for a while she came down and saw Elijah talking to Jenna. He turned to look at her.

"Hey Elijah, glad you could make it" Sophie said, smiling at him.

"You look lovely Miss Smith" He told her and her cheeks went pink. They shared a small hug and Sophie coughed. Jenna grinned.

"Black really suits you, right Elijah?" Jenna said seeing for his reaction. He stared at sophie.

"Yes, yes it does" Elijah replied not taking his eyes of of Sophie and she blushed before shooting Jenna a glare.

 ------------------

They were sat at a dinner table. Sophie glared at John.

"Great to see you-" He started.

"It's definitely not great to see you Johnny" Sophie spat out and he chuckled. John Gilbert was terrible. He always criticized her about hanging out with Damon and Stefan. 'A girl like you should not be hanging out with disgusting creatures like them'. God he was annoying.

She poured wine in her glass.

"Your 17, no drinking" John said as she rolled her eyes.

"Your not my father" She said and drank the wine.

"I hate to break it to you but according to Elijah, your family is so not a founder of this town" Jenna said smiling.

"Hmm, do tell" He muttered.

"Well as i mentioned to Jenna earlier a faction of settlers migrated from Salem after the witch trials in the 1690s. Over the next hundred years they developed this community where they could feel safe from the persecution" Jenna then added after Elijah spoke.

"Because they were witches" 

"There's no tangible proof there were witches in Salem" Andie expressed.

"Andies a journalist. Big on facts" Damon inputted. Sophie happily ate her chicken nuggets which she forced Damon to get from Mcdonalds before the dinner started. Elijah glanced at Sophie.

"Well the lore said that there was this wave of anti-witch hysteria broke out in the neighboring settlement. So these witches were rounded up. They were tied to stakes in the field together and uh burned, some say you could hear the screams for miles as they were consumed by the fire" 

Sophie looked down. Damn poor witches

"I, uh, wouldn't repeat this to the historical society" jenna said as they shared a laugh.

"It's starting to sound a little like a ghost story to me" John said.

"No one asked you Johnathan" Sophie said and they all brushed John off. Sophie took a sip of the wine and reached to re fill.

"So why do you want to know the location of these alleged massacres?" Damon asked.

"You know, healthy historians curiously of course" Elijah responded.

"Of course" Damon said in a mocking tone.

After everyone finished their food and began to get up Andie said

"The gentlemen should take their drinks to the study" Sophie cleared the plates.

"I have to say the food was almost as wonderful as the company" Elijah said and Sophie looked up and saw Elijah looking at her. She blushed slightly.

"You're not a gentlemen, make yourself useful" Jenna sassily said to John. Sophie snickered and put another plate in John's hands. After some time Elijah and Andie came in the room. Andie kept staring at Elijah which led to Sophie rolling her eyes.

"Sorry guys, dessert is taking longer than i thought, i usually just unwrap food" Jenna said. Sophie followed Jenna in the kitchen.

"Sorry i left my hair tie in the room, give me a second" Sophie went and heard a pained yell. She rushed over and saw Elijah with a dagger in his chest. He was desiccating. She gasped and went over,

"What did you do!?" She said looking at him. Originals can't die? She felt a pang in her chest looking at him. Alaric removed the dagger.

"Now get rid of him, before Jenna comes back with dessert" Alaric said, ignoring her.

"WHO would you do that! He promised to keep Elena and everyone safe!" Sophie shrieked.

"He lied, he was planning to kill Elena" Damon declared and started moving him. Sophie nodded in understanding.  She understood it was necessary and left it.

Sophie could not stop thinking about Elijah. He's dead. She heard a phone call and it was Damon's phone form Stefan.

"Give the phone to Damon now!" She passed it to him and Damon's eyes widened and he ended the call and ran to the basement. Sophie followed and saw Elijah was gone.

"Damn it!" Damon yelled.

"We were supposed to keep the dagger in place otherwise Elijah's free" Damon kicked a wall. 

Shit where could he be?
