Lost Love. Chapter 4.

Stefan’s P.O.V.

I walked into the room, throwing myself on the bed. I had almost killed that girl, but I felt more alive then ever. The internal war raged within me. All my wounds from Damon were healed. Damon. What was happening to him? What HAD happened to him? One minute he was killing me, I knew he was going to kill me. I could feel it, I could feel his desire to kill me. But then, he wasn’t, he... I don’t know what he did. He was talking to something, something I couldn’t see. He seemed to maybe care, ‘I miss you’. That’s what he had said. He said that he missed her. He was talking to Luce, he had said her name. He must be going insane. Seeing things.

Damon’s P.O.V.

She said she’d help me. Bonnie agreed to help me. I was hopeful again, I had something to hold onto. We’d been searching through spell books and anything else we could find. It was a lengthy process, took us days. I was almost losing hope, about to give up when Bonnie screamed.

‘I’ve found something! She said Stefan could save her? It makes sense. Although, he could only save her if he’s...’

‘If he’s what?’ I asked

‘If he’s drinking human blood again. It’s Stefan though, he isn’t going to drink human blood.’ She said as I jumped out of her window, changing into a crow as I went. I flew all the way home and into the window of my room. Stefan was sitting on his bed.

‘So little brother, hunt a nice bunny did tonight you?’ I asked him mentally, moving my lips at he same time.

‘Oh, shut up Damon.’ He replied... with his mind. I flew across the room and pinned him against the wall.

‘A human? You’ve been feeding on humans.’ I stated.

‘How? How did you?’

‘You need to pay more attention when you speak little brother. You spoke through your mind. I can smell it on you. Come with me.’ I pulled him towards to the door. I was going to take him to Bonnie’s, and we would get my Luce back. He tried to resist. ‘You may be strong. But you’re still no match for me.’

I pulled him to Bonnie’s house and up the stairs to her room, where she had already set up. I threw him to the floor.

‘Bonnie, are you ready?’ I asked her, eager to get on with the spell so I get my Luce back.

‘Almost. Just one second, oh and Damon you need to be in the circle too.’ She replied, lighting candles. I stepped into the circle beside my brother. He looked confused, he better not try to go anywhere. ‘Ok, here we go.’

‘I call upon the God’s and Goddesses of our world, I ask you to come to me, to help me with my spell. I call upon the Gods and Goddesses of the Spirit World, and I ask you to help Luce come back. My friend has lost someone dear to him, someone who died too early. I give to you two sacrifices, the one who holds her blood.’

She walked to Stefan and cut his arm, blood spilled out quickly, falling to her floor, as it made contact with the floor the pentagram she had traced out onto it shone red.

‘And the one who holds her heart,’ she walked to me, and cut my arm, when my blood hit the floor the pentagram shone white.

 ‘I give their blood, so hers can flow again.’ She lifted her own arm, and cut it, letting her blood flow down her wrist to the floor. ‘And I give my own, so the magic within me can bring her back.’

I fell to the floor in agony, I could hear a scream echoing around the room. I saw Luce; in her ice blue dress the day I first met her, in her bed sleeping silently whilst I sat outside her window wishing I could be with her, in her garden when I told her I couldn’t bare to part with her, sitting on the swinging chair on her balcony under the moonlight when I told her what I am, with her beautiful smile on her face, with tears in her eyes, when I told her we should run away together, and then, in her casket. The screaming was piercing my ears, so loud I put my hands to my hand to try to block it out, but it didn’t help at all. I fell to the floor in agony, writhing on the floor, but I couldn’t move. I was trapped, trapped in a small, dark box. Where am I? My breathing gets heavy and I scream for help, banging the sides of the box I’m in, crying out for someone to save me, for him to save me. Frantically, I look around for a way to escape, but I’m locked in.

‘Help! Please someone help me!’

Stefan’s P.O.V.

‘And I give my own, so the magic within me can bring her back.’ The pentagram that’s on the floor around me is shining brighter now. Then I hear the scream, I whirl around to see it’s coming from Damon. His hands are covering his ears, and he falls to the floor, he shouts for someone to help him, he asks where he is. Except it isn’t Damon’s voice, it’s someone else’s. A voice I’ve heard before, but cannot put a face to. He’s screaming and thrashing on the floor, but it looks like something is restricting his movements. He throws his head around, looking for something maybe.

‘Help! Please someone help me!’ he sounds terrified.

What have Bonnie and Damon done?

Bonnie’s P.O.V.

Damon’s thrashing around the floor, I can faintly see something surrounding him though, and something faintly in him. It looks like he’s in some kind of box, I can see the walls surrounding him. What’s happening? This wasn’t in any of the books I’ve researched this spell. He’s in agony, I can hear it in his screams, screams that don’t sound like Damon at all.

The spell worked, I know it did, but what’s happening to Damon, and where is Luce?

Luce P.O.V.

Suddenly I wake up, I can feel red hot burst of fire coursing through my veins, I sit up in agony, but hit my head on something. Looking around I realise I’m in a box. Screaming I try to figure out where I am.

‘Someone help me!!’ the pain that is seeping through every inch of my body is unbearable. I try to remember what has happened, but my screams are so loud I can’t think. I just want to get out of here, I want to find Damon and run away with him. If I find Damon maybe this pain will stop. I lash out at the sides of the box, banging them with my fists, clawing at them with my nails. I look around, trying to find a way out, but I’m trapped, trapped in this box.

‘Help! Please someone help me!’ I scream in agony and terror, before my body and mind shut down , I simply stopped fighting and fell uncouncious.

Damon’s P.O.V.

The pain stops as suddenly as it started. I fight to catch my breath, and look up to see Stefan and Bonnie looking down at me, both of them worried. I know what happened, how could we be so stupid to over look that!? I stand up quickly.

‘I’m going to England.’ I say

‘What? Why? Damon, the spell worked.’ Bonnie replies, she’s holding my arm, keeping me from the leaving the room. I turn to look at her, she flinches back, she can see all of my anger now, but it isn’t anger otwards her. It’s anger towards me, how could I be so stupid!?

‘I know the spell worked Bonnie. But we forgot one thing, where she was going to wake up.’ I snarled, walking to her window, I can feel her confusion. I give her the answer as I jump from the window. ‘She’s still in her coffin.’
