§- Children of the Damned -§

Mystic Falls 1864 - 3rd Person POV

A horse drawn carriage with a driver and his passenger are heading down a dirt road. Up ahead, in the middle of the road, lies a man with a woman kneeling beside him. The woman gets up when she sees the carriage and starts shouting.

"Please! Please, help us!" A girl who looks like the Gilbert twins, Katherine, runs toward the carriage as it comes to a halt.

"Please, my husband, he's been hurt! Please help him!" She pleads to the driver. He jumps down from his seat and goes to check on the man in the road. The passenger of the vehicle opens the carriage door and exits.

"What are you doing out here in the middle of the night? It's not safe." The passenger says to Katherine.

"No. No, sir. It's not safe." Katherine bares her fangs and bites the man's neck. The man screams as Katherine drains the life out of him. Meanwhile, the driver is kneeling over Damon's body, but turns around when he hears screaming. He sees his passenger's dead body lying by the carriage, but does not see Katherine. He looks back the other way and she somehow has appeared right in front of him. Her eyes become red and she drains the blood from the man who screams for his life. She tosses him aside when she has drained him, blood drenching here chin.

"And that's how it's done." Katherine wipes the front of her dress with her palms. Damon slowly and cautiously gets up and looks at the two dead men.

"What happens to the bodies?" The human Salvatore questions.

"Well, I'll take them into the woods and the other animals will finish them off." Damon seems frightened at his love's response. "Are you sure you're ready for this?"

"I'm ready. I want you to turn me." Damon nods.

"When it's time. Kiss me." Damon pulls a handkerchief from his coat pocket with a flourish. He moves to wipe the blood off Katherine's chin, but Katherine grabs his hand and moves in closer.

"You should get a taste." Katherine moves in to kiss Damon, but Damon moves away.

"Sorry." Damon sighs out with a small smile.

"Don't be. Soon you won't be able to get enough."

Damon hesitates for a moment before kissing Katherine with a fiery passion. Damon pulls away and the blood from Katherine's chin has smudge on Damon's lips which Katherine wipes at with her finger.

Present Day Salvatore Boarding House - Carrie's POV

I sigh as I begin to wake up from my amazing dream. It was pure bliss. I've never had dreams like that about someone, I'm sure you can guess who. I sit up and look around once my eyes have adjusted to the light creeping through the curtains. When I do I see Damon 'sleeping'. He's such a bad actor.

"You're bad at pretending." I roll my eyes and go back to my sleeping position at his side. I realise his arm is still around me when he tightens it and chuckles.

"And you talk in your sleep. Are we done with this?" He quips back and my face goes bright red.

"And I said...?" I lean up slightly.

"Same thing you always say in your sleep. Just my name." He smirks at me and I roll my eyes. He's such a, correct, idiot. I yawn and stretch myself out.
