Chapter 20: The Last Day

Damon laid in his bed as the sun then opens his eyes as he hears Elijah speaking with the others. "Tonight is the full moon," Elijah tells them, and Damon sat up and out of bed.

"We should assume that Klaus has prepared to break the curse." Elijah tells them, "Sammy said that the Sun and the moon curse is fake, that actually it's just a curse placed on Klaus." Stefan states, "Klaus is a vampire born of a werewolf bloodline, the curse as kept his werewolf side from manifesting, but if he breaks the curse, he'll become a true Hybrid." Serena tells them, Stefan looks over at the twins and they look at him, nodding. "Then why are we letting him break the curse?" Damon questions as he walks into the room, fully dressed.

"We'll kill him today, with Bonnie." he tells them, "Damon..." Stefan starts, "No, Bonnie can't use that much power without dying." Samathea tells him. "I'll write her a great Liturgy." Damon tells her, "It's not an option Damon, period." she snaps at him, he glares at her and curses her stubborn nature. "Alright. How do we break this curse?" Stefan asks the two. Elijah looks down at Serena and she looks up at him, giving him the go ahead. He then turns back to them, "Well the ritual itself is very straightforward, the ingredients, so to speak, you already know." Elijah states and walks pass Damon.

"The Moonstone." Stefan states, "That Serena originally created, but a witch will channel the power of the full moon to release the spell that is bound in the stone and after that, Klaus being both werewolf and vampire will sacrifice one of each." Elijah tells them, "Okay, where do we fit into it?" Elena asks him, Elijah walks over to the book shelves and pulls out a box. "Klaus must drink the blood of both the doppelgangers, to the point of your deaths." he tells them, Elena exchanges looks with Samathea and Stefan gently grips Elena's hand, and Samathea sighs, "And that's where you come in," she tells Elijah, and he opens it and pulls out a glass goblet with green liquid inside.

"This is an exliur that I required 500 years ago for Katerina and Anastasia, it possesses mystical properties of... resuscitation." he tells them, "So... we'll be dead..." Elena states, "And you won't." he adds, Samathea sighs with relief. "That's your plan, some magical witch potion with no expiration date?" Damon questions him and he turns back to Samathea. "You want to come back to life, what about John's rings?" Damon asks her.

"Those rings only work on humans, a doppelganger and a sorceress are supernatural currents, odds are... the rings won't work." Serena tells him, and Damon glares at her, "I'll take those odds over your exliur." he snaps at her and she held her hands up in defense. And Damon looks back at Samathea, "What if it doesn't work Sam?" he asks her and she looks up at him, "Then I guess I'll be dead." she tells him, "Wha..." Damon mumbles then look at the two, they shrug at him and Damon shook his head then walks out of his room.

"Well, we know if Klaus has everything to do this, does he have a werewolf?" Elena asks him, "Klaus has been waiting to break this curse over thousand years, if he doesn't have a werewolf, my guess is by tonight, he will." Elijah tells them and they all look at each other.

Damon stood outside, drinking some whiskey. Then Stefan walks out to him, "Breakfast for the champ?" Stefan asks him, "I'm surrounded by idiots, need all the help I can get." Damon tells him, "You know you're not helping." Stefan tells him, and Damon turns to him, "Elijah is an Original vampire, Stefan. One that we tried to kill, you believe this guy?" Damon questions him, "What do you want me to do, Damon. Elena and Samantha made their decision, they're choosing to trust Elijah. I'm going to put my faith in them." Stefan tells him.

"Why, Sammy and her sister, that she oh so loves are going to end up dead." Damon tells him, "Because they put their faith in me, they choose to trust me despite what I am. If I'm going to bet on somebody's instincts, it's going to be theirs." he tells him. "Well, that makes you the biggest idiot of them all." Damon tells him, "Sam choose to trust you too." Stefan informs him. "Well, maybe you shouldn't be so sure about her instincts," Damon tells him, taking a mouth full of the whiskey, then toss out the remains and walks back inside.
