Twisted Bonds

Chapter 21: Rose And Trevor

Emma's POV

I woke up on an old couch with a raging headache. "Ow..." I whispered out, clutching my head. Once my headache had died down a bit and my vision stopped spinning, I took stock of my surroundings. I was in what was a large, and obviously abandoned house. I heard voices coming from somewhere in the house. With a quiet grunt, I got up, hoping to find a way to escape. While I was getting up, I heard something crumple under me. I looked and found a piece of paper. I uncrumpled it, and on it was a message.

Stefan and Damon are coming to get you.

-B

My plans to escape were halted when I saw the note. I sighed in relief. It was then I heard one of the voices in the next room. It was Elena. For a split second I was confused. I wondered why she was here. But I quickly remembered that I was following Elena out to her car when I was struck over the head. Getting up and staying hidden, I tuned into the conversation. "What do you mean the Originals?" Elena asked.

The Originals? "Again with the questions. Haven't the Salvatores been teaching you vampire history?" the unknown woman began to question. Well, it's not like they hold classes for it.

"So you know Stefan and Damon?" Elena questioned back.

"I know of them. A hundred years back a friend of mine tried to set me up with Stefan. She said he was one of the good ones. I'm more of a sucker for the bad boys though, but I digress." the woman responded.

"Who are the Originals?" Elena pressed.

There was a pause before the woman responded. "Trevor and I have been running for five hundred years. We're tired. We want it over. We're using you to negotiate ourselves out of an old mess."

"But why me?" Elena asked.

"Because you're a Petrova doppelganger. You're the key to breaking the curse." the woman responded.

Wait, she's the key, not the moonstone? "Curse? The Sun and the Moon curse?" Elena questioned.

"So you do know your history." the woman responded.

"What do you mean I'm the key? The moonstone is what breaks the curse." Elena said, confused.

"No, the moonstone is what binds the curse. Sacrifice is what breaks it." the woman corrected. Wait, sacrifice? Elena has to be sacrificed? My blood ran cold.

"Sacrifice?" Elena questioned quietly. I barely even heard it.

"The blood of the doppelganger. You're the doppelganger. Which means in order to break the curse, you're the one that has to die." the woman said.

So, what I've gathered is that some very powerful vampires are coming after Elena, to kill her, to break the curse. What the hell... There was a pause in the conversation before Elena spoke up. "Tell me more."

Suddenly, another voice spoke up, startling me a little. "Captivity's made her pushy, eh? What do you wanna know, doppelicious?"

Doppelicious? "Who are you running from?" Elena asked.

"The Originals." the man, who I guessed was Trevor, responded.

"Yeah, she said that. What does that mean?" Elena questioned.

"The first family. The old world. Rose and I pissed them off." Tevor said. The woman, who I knew by then to be Rose, made a small noise, and Trevor corrected himself. "Correction, I pissed them off. Rose had my back. And for over half a millennium, they wanted us dead." he paused before he spoke again, louder. "Also, to the person hiding in the other room, we know you're there, so you might as well come in and join the party."

Shit...
