As Elijah walks into his room I'm sitting on his bed. Somehow I managed to keep my hearbeat normal, he shouldn't know that I fear for my life at the moment.

'Valentine? What are you doing here?' he's clearly concerned

'I need your advice Elijah', I take a deep breath. Despite thinking about something believable to say I'm worried that he might find out the real reason for my visit and the witch in his bathroom. 'Do you mind that I waited here for you?'

Elijah softens his facial expressions 'well, it's unusual but I don't really care', he sits down on a chair in front of me and leans forward, 'so, what's the matter?'

Everyone who'd meet Elijah Mikaelson will think he's some kind of angel and a good person, but I only see a monster in front of me. It's hard to oppress the urge of strangling him.

'There's someone who killed a person that I was very close with.
Now I have the opportunity to take revenge, but my action might hurt someone else. I don't know what to do Elijah. What would you do?'

He wasn't expecting this for sure 'I'd try to take revenge without killing that person. Some scars are worse than death and at the end of the day you'll still be able to live with yourself. And most important, be sure to have the right person and that this person really deserves it. Injustice makes you the bad person Valentine.'

A cold shiver runs down my spine, maybe this plan really is to much. What if he doesn't deserve it? 'I'll think about it, thank you Elijah. I have to go now'.

'Wait!' I turn around 'is it about Kol?'

'No' Afterwards I leave the house and walk away with a strange feeling. I struggle between what I know and what I feel and what I might not know at all. Perhaps I missed an important detail and Elijah is innocent? As much as I want him to be, it won't change anything about the facts. I also wonder why he killed Erin. He said he rather leave scars than corpses.

'Let's go now' Chiyo takes my hand and we're back in her house.
Fortunately the ring she took from Elijah is personal enough and Chiyo starts experimenting with different spells.

'are you really thinking about quitting our plan?' asks Chiyo without looking up

'I own it to my dead best friend'

The time passes and we both stay in silence. Sometime I even fell asleep until someone shakes me awake in the early morning.

'Wake up Valentine, I got it. I have the spell!'

I stare at her 'are you sure? Is it going to work?'

She smiles bright and proud 'yes!'

'I want to do it now!' Chiyo agrees and leads me into her attic. Here's an altar, loads of candles and other stuff she uses for spells. The room is completely dark until she lights up the candles.

'I need some blood of yours to be able to do the spell' so she cuts my hand open and I let my blood drop into a chalice.

'I'll combine two spells. His subconscious will lead him here then fall asleep as soon as he reaches the destination'

Perfect! I sit down and wait for her to practice her magic. My phone rings downstairs, but I don't mind. I guess it's Elena again. She kept trying to convince me to come home and talk about what I feel, but I don't want to talk about feeling like I owe a murder to my deceased friend.

'Valentine? Please go outside and bring Elijah in. He'll be here every moment'.

Wordless I do what's required. My heart skips a beat as I open the door and see Elijah laying there. The time finally came. He's at my mercy now.
I carry Elijah down the stairs into Chiyos basement where I lay him down on one of the two metallic tables. This room is big, cold and there's blood on the walls. It gives me goosebumps! What did Chiyo do in here? After I tie him up to the table I take a look on this room. On another desk are different kinds of knives and other things I never saw before. Her basement is basically a torture chamber.

Suddenly something hits me on the back. It's a penetrative and blinding pain I feel. It makes me lose consciousness.
