The Destined Protector

Rose

"You're scared." Grace just rolled her eyes at Elena.

They ignored her and Rose told Trevor,"Stay here with her and don't make a sound."She leaves to open the door. Elijah, wearing a black suit ,opens the front door.She arrives.

"Rose-Marie. Is there somewhere we can talk?"
They walked into the house and they talked," Oh, when you called and invited me into this armpit of civilization, which is a mere three hours from the town we know as Mystic Falls, I surmised it had everything to do with Katerina. Do you have her in your possession?"

Rose informed him with hope in her eyes,"No, but I have better. I have her doppelgänger."

"That's impossible, her family line ended with her. I know that for fact."

Rose shook her head and said,"The facts are wrong."
" Well, show her to me." Elijah stood up from his seat, full of interest.

"Elijah, you are a man of honor, you should be trusted but I want to hear you say it again."Elijah made sure of the way he said his words,"You have my word that I will pardon you."

"Follow me."

____

He follows her. They arrive at the main room. Elena hears them. She's scared and turns her head. Elijah looks at her. He's surprised and rushes over to her. He looks at her and smells her neck.Grace was behind Elena, freaked out by him smelling Elena. Like who does that?

"Human. It's impossible. Hello there."

Grace stood there, feeling invisible, she was not planning on speaking, yet she did something stupid," So,firstly stop sniffing her you weirdo. She's not a cinnamon bun. And secondly... wait...I forgot...oh, I know. Who are you, Mr suit guy?"

Elijah was starstruck when he saw her. He know that she was his soulmate. He walked up to her and introduced himself,"I'm Elijah and you are?"

Grace took a step back, she could not understand his interest in her,"My name is none of your business."

He needs to get them out of here. But first he needs to finish what he came here to do.

"One last piece of business and we're done."
He goes toward Trevor.

Trevor smiles but Elijah moved fast and smacks Trevor's head clean off his body. His body fell flat and his head rolled a bit. Rose cries. Elena is shocked. Grace was getting quite pale and nauseous from all the blood, leaking from Trevor's body.

Rose exclaimed in shock," You...!"
" Don't, Rose, now that you are free."
He looks at Elena and his soulmate, still not knowing her name.

He sees that his soulmate was not reacting to good to blood. He should have put her in another room. He thinks that he needs to move her to a less vampire fulled room. He gently grabbed her and carried her to his car with his super speed. "Stay in the car. I will be back soon."

Elijah came back soon after. Elena was worried for her cousin. What if she was dead?

"Come. We should be going."

Elena was thinking of a way to stall Elijah, Stefan was almost there,"No, what about the moonstone? I know that you need it and I know where it is.I can help you get it."
"Are you negotiating with me?"

He tries to compel Elena but it doesn't work. He looks at her necklace.

He pulls the necklace off her neck and throws it away. He grabs her head and compels her.

"Tell me where the moonstone is."

Elena told him against her will,"In the tomb, underneath the church ruins.""What is it doing there?"

Elena again told him,"It's with Katherine."

He grabbed Elena by her shoulders and compelled her quietly,"You will forget that someone else was with you. You were kidnapped alone."

They hear breaking glass from upstairs.

He grabs Elena roughly. They go in another part of the house. Stefan and Damon are moving around them with their super speed. Elijah throws Elena in Rose's arms.

"Up here."

Elijah goes up the stairs with his super speed.

"Down here."

Elijah receives in stake in his hand. He removes it. Elena and Rose have disappeared. Elena is with Stefan. He tells her to be quiet. Damon is with Rose. He has his hand on her mouth and gestures to be quiet.

Elijah yelled in anger," Excuse me. To whom it may concern, you're making a great mistake if you think that you can beat me. You can't. Do you hear that?"
He breaks a wooden coat rack into a stake.

"I repeat, you cannot beat me. So I want the girl, I'm gonna count to three or heads will roll. Do we understand each other?"

Elena appears at the top of the stairs and said," I'll come with you, just please don't my friends, they just wanted to help me out."

He goes up the stairs with his super speed. He has the stake in his hand.

Elijah asked,"What game are you playing with me?"

She throws the vervain bomb in his face. It explodes. His skin burns but he heals immediately. He goes toward Elena but Stefan arrives and shoots him with the compressed air weapon. It doesn't hurt him so Stefan throws the weapon and rushes at Elijah and tackles him.
They fall down the stairs. Elijah gets up immediately but Stefan stays on the floor. He goes toward Stefan but Damon appears and stakes Elijah. He pushes him against the door. Elijah is dead and is pinned to the door with the stake. Rose sees it and leaves. Damon tries to follow her.

"Just let her go."

He smiles. She smiles too and goes down the stairs to go to Stefan's arms.

Stefan asked in concern,"Hey come here. Are you hurt? Are you okay?"

She embraces him and looks at Damon. She mouths a "thank you" and Damon mouths a "you're welcome"
