Chapter 31
Ariana's POV
I walked through the doors of the grill, really not in the mood. I sighed as I sat at the bar.
"Hey Aria. Long time no see." I heard Matt say as I looked up to come face to face with him.
"Matt! Omg sorry. We haven't really spoken in a while. Sorry, things have just been..."but Matt cut me of before I could finish.
"Busy" I nodded in reply.
"Hey can I have something strong ? " I asked still feeling really stressed.
"Um..." He said not sure whether to give it to me.
"Please Matt it's been a really long day!" I told him using my puppy dog face.
"Fine." He said finally giving in. He poured glass , of something or other and passed it to me.
"Thanks" I replied as Matt went to help another customer. I sighed as I chugged the alcohol down in one. It burnt my throat but I didn't care. Dizziness came over me for a split second but soon it settled. That's when all the events which had happened today hit me. But most of all that dream I had hit me .You saved Katherine, interesting choice...you can save them or not. It's all up to you, but for each decision there will be consequences...You are the most powerful thing to walk this earth...your weaknesses are destroyed
.
The voices kept playing over and over again in my head. No! No! I thought as I smashed the glass in my hand standing up. I turned round and headed for the door as another wave of dizziness past through me.Nature doesn't allow that....you are a witch...giving you a chance...If you choose correctly you will survive by the end of this but if you don't you will die... Die... Die ...Die .
The word kept replaying in my head as I griped a table for support . I heard a voice calling my name, I think it was Matt. But I wasn't listening. It felt as if I was disconnected from the world.
Consequences... Die...Consequences...Die...
Consequences... Die....Consequences ."No! No! No!" I shouted as I fell to the floor. I screamed as pain rang through my head. What was going on?! I asked myself but soon I couldn't even think as the pain got so bad . I screamed, a scream which could of been heard in Australia. Suddenly it all stopped I opened my eyes and looked around . I gasped as tears fell from my eyes. I knew what had happened. I had let my emotions get the best of me. More and more tears streamed down my face as I stared at my hands before looking back around the grill. Every person, every person in the grill, all dead. Dead because if me. That's when my eyes landed on a body that looked familiar. Matt. I ran towards him as tried to find a pulse. But I had no luck.
"No...no....Matt come back. Matt please...please." I began to whisper as I sobbed over his body. I cried and cried for hours. Pain cursed through my body as I curled up into a ball. My magic. My damn magic. I need to control it but how? That's the problem I don't know how to. I was now just letting the tears fall as I stood up and screamed, kicking every table and chair over. Soon I saw really how many people were in here...10..20..25. I didn't know, but the guilt came crashing down on me as I returned to Matts body. That's when I herd the doors slam open. I turned my head to come face to face with Dad.
"I.. I...I didn't mean to. It just..ju.." But soon my sobs took over bad I wasn't able to speak. That when I felt someone pull me into his arms. I turned to see me Dad comforting me.
"It's alright. Look. He's wearing his ring. He'll wake up soon." My Dad whispered to me as a wave of relief passed through me.
"But look around Dad. Look how many people I killed." I replied as the guilt began to creep up on me .
"It hurts." I whispered again. He pulled me closer to him as he soothed me. I didn't say anything after that I just waited for Matt to wake again.
It had been a few hours now and I was sure it was like one o'clock. Me and Dad were still on the grill floor staring at Matt. That's when he gasped and sat up.
"What happened?" He asked as I looked at him.
"I'm...sorry.. Matt. I didn't ...mean.. to." I stuttered as he looked at me and replied.
"It's ok, Ariana. But how did you do it?" He asked, oh yeah he didn't know about the magic.
"Um...well...it's kind of complicated." I told him as he let out a laugh.
"That's my life, Aria. I'm used to it." He replied as I sighed. But before I could get the words out Dad did it for me.
"She's half vampire , half witch. Oh and on top of that she's just like an original" Matts mouth fell open. But he didn't say anything. He just opened his arms and pulled me into a hug. Which I was thankful for.

Damon's POV
After I had taken Ariana home and got ride of all those body's, I had to do the hard bit. Talk to Elena. I walked in the living room to see Elena siting by the fireplace, reading what looks like her dad's journal.
"It's weird. Even as a kid, there was something about that basement that creeped me out." She said as I coughed out.
"Sure you want to give yourself nightmares reading that thing?" I said sitting in from of her.
"And I remember my dad talking about this little girl. I think he was talking about my roommate Megan. Look. 'January 1999. Saw Megan King today. Megan is 7 years old. She suffers from a congenital heart defect with a life expectancy of two months. A single injection of vampire blood appears to be an effective life-saving solution.' That's why Megan had a picture of my dad on her phone ... because he saved her life." Elena told me completely ignoring my remark.
"A hundred pages of horrific torture, and you find the one happy passage." I told her as she replied.
"My dad used his research to save people, Damon, children, families." She replied.
"Yeah. And dissected vampires along the way. News flash, Elena. You are a vampire. I mean, do you honestly think that he would sit here and see you as anything more?" I asked her. I knew lashing out at her was wrong but it would make it easier, right?
"I don't know. He was my dad. I can't not defend him." She said as I stood up.
"No. I know you can't because you do it for me all the time." I said turning my back on her.
"I'm not defending you. I'm not defending your decision to kill Aaron's entire family, to go out of town and kill the aunt while we were still together."she said, surprised by my sudden burst out. That's when I snapped.
"So why are you still here? I'm bad, Elena, I am bad for you, so why wouldn't you have run away from me as far as humanly possible?" I asked her as she stood up and walked close to me.
"Because I love you, Damon, because I chose you, and because I stand by my choice." She said. I felt her body radiate warmth as mine just felt cold.
"Well, now I'm choosing, and I'm choosing to let you go." I said. Don't get me wrong I didn't want to let her go, but I had to.
"What? No, Damon..." She tried to protest but I interrupted her.
" I am choosing to not have to think about how you must feel every time some ghost from my past comes into our life. I'm choosing to relieve you of having to defend me for every awful thing I've ever done." I told her.
"Stop acting like I'm perfect. " she spat at me. "Damon, I've done horrible things, too. You think I'm gonna stand here and judge you after I find out that you've been tortured for 5 years?" She asked me. That's when I stepped away and shouted.
"STOP DEFENDING ME! I won't change who I am. I can't... But I refuse to change you." I told her as I walk out, I could hear her faintly crying but I carried on walking away. It's for the best, I kept telling myself.~~~
Ariana's POV
I was in my room. I hadn't slept at all last night and now I was sitting by the window. I was feeling guilty and I was still in pain. My magic was boiling under my fingertips, I could feel it. I could snap at any time. That's why I had to make a decision. Either live like I did and risk the lives of many...or...stay in my room until I got control. I think you can guess which one I'm gonna go for. That's right the second one.
I had heard that Katherine had a heart attack last night and was now in hospital. I'm not only on the brink of... Well... Everything, but my best friend is dying. I sighed as I got up from where I was siting and took a shower. I let the warm water hit my tense body immediately calming me down. When I got out I quickly changed into some sweatpants and a grey tank top. I then pulled my Harvard hoodie on and sat back on my bed sighing.
What was I going to do with myself? I thought as I let out another sigh.~~~
Damon's POV
I walked back from the grill with Jeremy and Matt. I had drunken pretty much all of its alcohol. But I still didn't feel drunk. Nope not at all. We walked into the house as I noticed someone in the driveway quickly disappear.
"Guys i'll meat you in there. Don't start the fun without me." I told them as they nodded and left. We were going to toast about Katherine's death but I would deal with this first.
I walked round the back of the house. But I saw no one. That's when I herd someone behind me. I turned to come as to face with none other than Klaus.
"What are you doing here?" I asked him anger in my voice.
"You really need to ask me that. I'm sure out already know." He told me as I growled and replied .
"I took her away for a reason Klaus. Do you really think you could be any good for her?" I asked him leaving the hybrid speechless.
"Everyone you care about Klaus, either gets hurt, ends up in a box with a dagger in them, or dead. So I'll tell you again leave." I snarled at him. He thought for a moment before walking towards me.
"Your right, Damon. But know this I'm doing this for Aria. Not you!" He said as he slowly walked away.
"Tell Ariana, I'm sorry." And then with that he left. I was surprised I actually saw a bit of emotion in his eyes there, like he actually cared.~~~
Klaus' POV
"What are you doing here?" Damon asked me as I smirked back to him .
"You really need to ask me that. I'm sure out already know." Then Damon let out a small growl and replied.
"I took her away for a reason Klaus. Do you really think you could be any good for her?" I was left speechless after this. I didn't know what to say. Was I any good for Aria?
"Everyone you care about Klaus, either gets hurt, ends up in a box with a dagger in them, or dead. So I'll tell you again leave." Damon snarled. He was completely right. Just like my sister. She would end up getting hurt. I couldn't let that happen. For her sake. I took a deep breath and walked towards Damon.
"Your right, Damon. But know this I'm doing this for Aria. Not you!" I told him as I slowly walked away.
"Tell Ariana, I'm sorry." And then with that I left. Rushing through the woods I felt regret in me. But I had to keep going even though the voice inside of me told me I was wrong.
