I'm headed over to the Salvatore's to see the "White Oak Stake" for myself. I get there and realize someone else is also here. Fury overcomes me and I look around. You can tell it's a woman by her perfume sprayed continuously. So I assume it would be Damon. I head over to his room, no one's there, so I check the bathroom. Damon's in the bath, while news reporter; Andie Star is doing her makeup.
"Who is she?" Andie asks Damon rudely while checking me out. Already mad, I pin her up by her throat onto the wall.
"I'm Arizona. Go to work." I compel her and she leaves. Damon gets out of the tub wrapping a towel around him. I just cross my arms at him.
"Who's she?" I ask.
"My new girlfriend." Damon replies. I'm already filled with fury, so I grab the bed post and stab him in the chest with it. I keep digging it around and he groans. I push it in more and I leave it in.
"What the hell?" Damon groans in fury.
"I'll be downstairs. Waiting when you want to grow up." I say while I walk to the living room. Ric walks in and sits with me. He sees me looking especially pissed.
"You okay, Ari?" Alaric asks alarmed.
"I'm peachy." I say with a thin-lipped smile.
"What about you?" I ask him trying to clear my mind.
"Besides Isobel, and all this. Pretty fine." Alaric replies sighing. Now Damon comes in with the stake.
"So, John gave me this to kill Elijah." Damon shows us the dagger.
"Said you have to dip the dagger in the remains of an old white ash tree that dates back to the Originals, if there's any truth in that." Damon adds while grazing the dagger's grooves. Alaric takes it.
"So you think it's a set up? I ask him looking at the dagger.
"Could be. The guy is a weasel." Damon scrunches his nose.
"Anyways what are you doing today, Mr. Saltzman?" Damon asks intrigued.
"Well, Jenna and I were supposed to go to her family's lake house, but somehow, we both got roped into doing this Historical Society thing at the Lockwoods." Alaric speaks as he gives back the dagger.
"Oh, I head about that. And Elijah is the special guest, actually." I say as I stand up to leave.
"Wait. Don't tell me you're going to try to kill him at the party." I groan, and acknowledge.
"No, that would be stupid." Damon gives me a skeptical look.
"I want to know his endgame before I kill him, but I do think it's time Elijah and I officially met." Damon adds. I roll my eyes.
"I hope you get killed in the process." I remark as I stand up and leave to go to the Grill.
***
I go over to the Grill and I see Caroline talking to Matt. They're fighting. I go up to them and try to resolve it. Apparently Caroline had missed the day where both of them were to hang out.
"Matt, she was with me. Don't take it out on her. Something happened and it was really embarrassing, I didn't want anyone to know." I make up a lie to save Caroline's ass. Matt nods and goes back to work.
"You owe me." I whisper to her. Then Tyler comes up to us. I try to leave him with Caroline.
"Arizona." Tyler speaks with guilt in his eyes.
"You don't get to say anything." I push him out of my way.
"I'm sorry for what happened. But there's so much we need to talk about." Tyler gives a horrible apology.
"Keep it to yourself."
***
"Arizona, what are you doing here?" Jenna asks me.
"Thought I'd stop by and see what's happening. I thought tea parties were more fun." I laugh as Damon and Andie walk up to us.
"And what are you doing here, Damon?" Jenna asks him, but no response. They give each other a little peck on the lips. I get shivers down my spine from just looking at it.
"Excuse me." I interrupt as I fiddle with my hands. I walk away from them, and Carol stops me.
"Arizona. So nice to see you. It's been forever." She kisses me on the cheek.
"It has. Its very nice to see you again." I reply back to her kissing her back.
"Elijah, I want you to meet Arizona Gilbert. Her family is one of Mystic Fall's founding families." Carol introduces Elijah to me. But little does she know, we know each other somewhat well.
"Pleasure to meet you, Elijah." I shake his hand.
"No, pleasures mine." He shakes his hand back. I smirk.
"Carol, do you mind? I would like to have a word with these wonderful people." Damon steps in and we walk into the study room.
"What can I do for you, Damon?" Elijah profoundly asks.
"I was hoping we could have a word." Damon mouths back.
"Where's Elena?" Elijah asks.
"She's safe. With Stefan. Trying to avoid the werewolves." I smile to Elijah.
"Oh, yes. I heard about that. Elijah speaks with graciousness.
"I'm sure you did. Since it was your witch who saved the day." Damon mouths off to Elijah once again.
"You are welcome." Elijah keeps his cool, you can obviously tell.
"Which adds to my confusion. Why are you here?" Damon asks rudely. I give him such a stink eye.
"Why don't you just focus on keeping Elena safe, and keeping the rest to me." Elijah speaks, with his voice getting angrier. Elijah tries to leave the room, but Damon vamp speeds in front of him. Clearly, not a good idea.
"Not good enough." Damon says. But Elijah pins him up to the wall.
"You young vampires, so arrogant. How dare you come up to challenge me?" Elijah threatens Damon.
"You can't kill me. It's not apart of the deal." Damon speaks to defend himself.
"Silence." Elijah says. Elijah grabs a pencil from the desk, and shoves it into Damon's neck. I stand up in fear.
"I'm an Original. Show a little respect." Elijah wipes off the blood with his handkerchief, then leaves the room. I speed to Damon to see if he's okay. I kneel beside him as he pulls out the pencil.
"Are you okay?" I tremble in worry.
"I'll live."
***
At the front of the boarding house, you can tell someone is in there. Someone different. Dangerous. I walk closer and I can hear Damon being tortured of some kind. Also another sense of someone. Masculinity.
"Hello?" I yell.
"Arizona. Pleased to see you again. Let's go on." Elijah speaks and we enter the house.
"Looking for this?" Elijah taunts the werewolves with the moonstone.
"Come on, take it." Elijah taunts once again. A werewolf tries to take it but Elijah just rips out his heart. The two other wolves tries too, but Elijah puts zero effort into taking their hearts out.
"So you do realize this is the third time I've saved you now?" Elijah says, with blood all over his hands and leaves. Now I gotta help Damon get out of the mess he got in. I take off the chains which are loaded with vervain.
"You're incredibly stupid. You do know that?" I tell him still ripping off the ropes.
"I've been told."
