Darkest Greetings

1. False Assumptions

Author's Note: The song that goes with this is: Everybody's Fool by Evanescence ***************************************************************************************************

                           I poked Anna's face hard, trying to wake her up. Wow, she's a heavy-sleeper. I kept poking her until she literally punched me in the face. I fell on my ass, holding my nose. I hissed at her, but then calmed down when I saw that she was still asleep. I smiled inwardly and walked up to her. I slapped her super hard, hoping she'd wake up. Thankfully, she did. But she had an angry expression on her face...and a bruised cheek. I laughed at her. Angry, she hissed at me, her fangs extended. I threw my pillow at her. 

    "Stop complaining, Anna." I said, trying to keep a straight face.

    "Whatever." She muttered, getting back in bed. 

    "I'm going out for a walk." I said, grabbing my leather jacket and walking out the door.

                           Honestly, I didn't know where I was going. I still walked down the sidewalk though. I had to get my mind cleared. I stared at the ground. Images of my mom and that Damon guy appeared on the ground. What the hell? Another one of them having sex appeared too. I gasped, my eyes wide. I shook my head, making the images disappear. Just then, I bumped into something rock hard. I fell on my ass again, looking up. 

"I'm so sorry! I..." My voice trailed off. It was that Damon guy!

"It's-- Katherine." He breathed my mother's name like it was some type of curse.

"No, I'm not--." Before I could finish, I was pinned against a wall and was being held by the throat by him. 

"You bitch! Why are you back?!" Damon shouted, choking me.

"Wait, you think I'm Katherine? No, you've got it all wrong. I'm her--." He cut me off. 

"Shut up. Don't think I don't know who you are, Katherine." He said, his grip tightening.

"Please...Stop....You're..." I passed out, going limp in his arms. 

"What the hell?" I heard him mutter. 

     ~Damon's P.O.V~

        Katherine passed out in my arms, going completely limp. I didn't know what else to do so I picked her up and brought her to the boarding house. When I finally arrived there, I went into the basement, sat her in a chair and chained her hands and feet. When she woke up, I was prepared. I had vervain in one hand and a stake in the other.

        ~Kathleen's P.O.V~

        When I woke up, I was in a chair and my hands and feet were chained to it. I tried to get out but I failed epically. That's when I noticed Damon leaning on the wall with vervain in one hand and a stake in the other. I cringed while he made his way over to me.

"Now tell me again, Katherine, what are you doing here?" Damon asked in my face. 

"I told you already, I'm not Katherine!" I shouted. 

"Then who are you?" He asked, still in my face.

"Kathleen Pierce, Katherine's daughter." I answered. He put the vervain on my cheek, making me scream in pain.

"Now, tell me once more, who are you?" He asked, the vervain close to my face.

"Kathleen Pierce." I said, fear in my voice.

"Liar!!" He shouted, pressing the vervain on my cheek again. I screamed again. But, right at that moment, Anna barged in and pinned Damon to the wall. Her eyes were red and I could see the veins under her eyes. Damon plunged the stake into Anna's stomach.

"ANNA!!!" I shouted, breaking the chains and running to Anna, who lay unconscious on the floor. I looked up at Damon.

"You bastard! What is wrong with you?!" I shouted, tackling him, causing him to fall on his back. He kicked me off, making me hit the wall. I groaned then started crying. Anna is probably dead because of me. No. Because of my mother. This is all her fault!

       Wait, I completely forgot! I have healing powers too! I took the stake out of Anna's stomach and leaned over her. I place my hands over the wounded area then closed my eyes, concentrating on nothing but her. My hands glowed a white color-meaning it was working.  I could hear Damon gasp at the sight of one of my powers. I chuckled and continued. I pulled away, knowing the job was done. Anna gasped, sitting up. 

"Anna!" I shouted, hugging her.

"Kathy, what happened?" Anna asked. I didn't need to tell her because she already caught sight of Damon. She hissed at him. He got into a crouching position. 

"Stop it!" I shouted, using air to make them fly on different sides of the room. They both hit their heads on the wall. I laughed but got death glares from the both of them. I looked down. Without knowing, I walked over to Damon, looking him into the eyes. 

  "Now, you tell me something." I said, my hands on my hips. He nodded. "Why do you loathe Katherine so much?" I asked.

"Because, back in 1864, she lied to my brother and I and said she loved us both. But the truth was she didn't and she was just using us. And, till this day, we still love her-but we hate her even more." He explained.

  "Ah, so you thought I was Katherine and instantly wanted me dead?" I asked, pacing back and forth. He nodded. "Good. So, now you owe me because I am nothing like her nor am I her." I told him, grinning evilly.

 "What is it?" He asked, rolling his eyes.

"You have to let me-I mean, us- stay here." I said, smiling. Anna gasped and gave me signals saying 'No!' but I completely ignored her. Damon's jaw dropped but then closed again. He pulled out a phone. "Who are you calling?" I asked.

"None of your business." He said, dialing a number. "Hello, Stefan. We have a problem." Damon said to who I think must've been Stefan Salvatore, his brother. Oh god, he's going to think I'm my mother. This is bad. Really bad....
