The Other Side

Ghost

"So we're going to stage the kidnapping." Tatia asks. "Yes. And when Klaus comes for us, you need to tell him the truth." She nods.

Elena's POV

"Mom, what's going on over there?"

"I don't know, baby. We need to get in contact though. Where's Ricky and Katherine?"

"We're here." We walk into the witch house and we see them talking. "Elena, what's going on?"

"I don't know." I walk over to a glass jar and I put my hand on it. "I can touch it. The veil is getting thinner." I push it over making my doppelgänger jump. "What the hell?" Damon mutters. I touch his shoulder and he flips around. "Tatia, did you just grab my shoulder?"

"No." I run my hand down the side of his face. "He can feel me. Ricky, Evie, try to get Jade and Christian's attention. Katherine, try and get Stefan."

"What is it, Damon?" Ari asks. "I can feel something." He reaches out and I guide his hand to my face. "Oh my god." They all look at him, obviously confused. "It's Elena. She's here." I can feel his touch. "Damon, we can't see her."

"Neither can I. But I know it's her."

"Damon-"

"I know it's her. I-" He stops when I walk away. I shove more glasses off the shelves. I kneel and they all run around to see. I begin using my fingers to write letters. Eventually it says, I love you, Damon. He smiles. "I told you. Elena, what's going on?" I mess up the glass again.

The veil is wearing thinner. I can interact.

"How?"

I don't know.

"We haven't started yet. But we may need your help. Now that you can interact, we have a silent advantage. See how much interaction you can do." I walk up to Tatia. I pull my fist back and I punch her in the jaw. She grips it. "What the hell?!? Bitch." Damon laughs. "That's my girl." I draw a smiley face in the glass.

"Okay, now that we know you're capable of punching people, we need your help. You have to take care of Klaus. Snap his neck while we fake kidnap Tatia."

Okay.

He smiles. "You're coming back today, Elena." I smile.

I don't think this version of the ouija board comes with sexting.

Damon laughs and Ariana shudders. "Elena, that is an image I never wanted in my head."

Sorry.

"Okay, just follow us to the manor."

Got it, babe.

"I love you, Elena."

I love you too, Damon.

"Alright." We all head for the Camaro. Damon gets in the front seat. I stop him from closing the door then I sit down. He smirks. "I am enjoying this way more than I should." I slap him gently and he laughs. "I can't wait until I can see you." I kiss him softly on the cheek and he smiles. "This is a version of ghost I'm loving." I tug on his phone and he pulls it out of his pocket. I go into notes and I start tapping.

I thought you hated that movie.

He laughs and I smile.

I love you.

"I love you too." He whispers. I kiss him gently on the lips and he grins.

Soon we reach the Mikelson Manor. I lock my fingers with his and we walk toward the door. He grabs Tatia by the hair and she glares at him. I open the door and we walk inside. "Hey Klaus! I have a Petrova Package for you!" He yanks on her hair and she cries out. Klaus walks into the room. "Not yet," he whispers. I squeeze his hand as an okay then I lean against the wall.

"You stole Tatia for vengeance? Bad move, Salvatore." He sticks his hand in her back. "Go ahead. Come closer. She'll be dead before your boot hits the ground."

"What are you going to do? Kill me? I can see it coming from a mile away."

"I think I know something you won't see."

"Try me." He laughs and I open then shut the door. "What the hell are you doing?"

"Not what I'm doing," I smile, "let's just say I've got friends on the other side." I kick him into the wall. "Nice hit, babe." I smile then I kick him in the side repeatedly. "I bet she remembers when you did that." I stomp on his stomach, knocking the wind out of him. "Don't make me rip her heart out right in front of you just like you did to Elena."

"No!" I snap his neck then Damon lets Tatia go. I blow my hair out of my face. "That was fun." They both look directly at me. "Elena?" I look between them. "Wait, can you see me?"

"Yeah." Damon rushes at me and crushes his lips to mine. "Easy casanova, the last thing I need to scar me for life is witnessing you two suck each other's faces."

"Shut up, bitch." I glare at her. "What the hell did I do?"

"You're inside my body. I don't appreciate that very much."

"Blame Klaus. I didn't want to come back."

"Yet you made them wait six freaking years? How noble of you." Damon chuckles. "There's a reason I married you. It's because you're as mean as I am."

"Shut up." Damon pulls Klaus over his shoulder then puts him in the trunk. We take him to the witch house, and Ari rushes us. "What happened? What did you to to him?" Damon sets him down on the couch and Ari sits at his side. I look at Damon. "She's in love with him." My eyes go wide. "Well that explains a lot."

"Ariana, we need to do the spell." She nods.

"I'll stay with him. You guys get started. Where's-" My son walks in the door at that moment. "Dad, what's-" He steps aside and I'm met by my own brown eyes. They go wide and mine well up with tears. "Mom?" I wrap my arms around him and he cries into my shoulder. "I'm here, baby. I'm right here." He nods.

"They're starting the spell." Ricky says. "Can they not see you?" I whisper to him. "No. As of now I'm not as emotional." I nod then the door opens again. "You might be in a second." Evie comes upstairs just as Jade and Christian walk inside. His face softens, like he's just found a 100 dollar bill on the ground. Damon kisses my head and I smile. "What is it?"

"Just wait." I whisper. Suddenly Jade's face brightens. "Ricky!" She runs into his arms. "Where's Katherine and Evie?"

"Evie's standing in front of Christian, and Katherine came upstairs just now behind Stefan." I whisper to him. He smiles.

"Well, I'd say we're in for hell. We have three doppelgängers in our presence." I hit him on the chest.

"Well, what do you say we make the people we love walk the earth again?" Evie smiles and so does Katherine. Jade kisses Ricky gently then we all head downstairs to start the ritual.
