The ties between us

St. Stef and Elena to rescue

Elena's POV

Finally, after the long silent ride that seemed like forever, I finally made it to Bonnie's. It was her mom's old little house way out in the woods, met with a little driveway.

As I park I quickly hopped out of the car slamming the door and hurrying to the house with Stefan closely behind on my trail.

"I'm here Bonnie!" I yell out.

"In here," she responds.

"Hey, here's the photo. Just please try to be quick, it's been 40 minutes already so hopefully no one killed him yet. I know how much trouble his smart mouth can get him into," I try to laugh as it turns into a scoff.

"I'll do the best I can Elena," She sighed out then continued to start the spell, "Najit eslon umisteni mapu."

As Bonnie chant's my hope is dropping by the moment, hope was falling that he wasn't alive. A tear drops from my eye and slides down onto my cheek, but I was quick to wipe it away not wanting Stefan to see. But he noticed anyhow, he walks over to pull me to his side, for once I wasn't uncomfortable about it. I was longing that touch from him, still the same warm inviting feeling. I return the gesture as I sling my arm around his back to turn it into a side hug, I knew he needed the comfort too. He'd just gotten back, to lose his brother again.

"Alright, he's still in Mystic Falls. Somewhere in the woods, I couldn't catch anything clearer. Maybe you guys have an idea of where he could be? If not maybe I could try using some of your blood Stefan?" She questioned.

"No need, I know where they are exactly now." He sighed out of realization.

"Where?" Bonnie questioned.

"Lockwood cellar, give me the keys Elena." He said. I quickly nodded my head and threw him the keys to my car.

"I'm going with you guys," Bonnie said.

Stefan nodded in agreement and headed for the door so we could leave. He hopped in the driver side, me in the passenger, and Bonnie in the back and quickly sped off for the Lockwood cellar.

Damon's POV

Finally, I wake up, I was gonna kill that bastard. Then I heard a car halt to a stop near the entrance of the woods as I started to gain back my sense of hearing. And then 3 car doors open and shut.

I quickly try to break the chains loose from the wall, If Tyler Lockwood could break them so could I. After a couple of seconds they both snap and I quietly speed pass the gate and out of the underground cellar and run to the nearest tree to listen for signs of steps.

Coast is clear, I quickly step out from behind the tree to feel a searing pain hit my back, and I drop to the ground. And then a male figure walks away leaving me on the ground, it has to be a luring trap. Which was meaning someone was her to rescue me, that as in probably Elena.

Elena's POV

I quickly look at my surroundings, all trees. Then I start to focus in on the sounds around me. Suddenly I hear a grunt of pain, and I know the sound from anywhere.

"I hear him, " I say loud enough for Bonnie and Stefan to hear me. I look over to see that Stefan was about to run to find him, but I quickly stop him and runoff.

As I expected, I hear Stefan call after me.

But I focus to try and hear any signs of Damon so I can find where he's at.

"Elena!" I hear from a far distance, it couldn't have been Stefan he was too close. Of course, it was Damon, I quickly speed up to rush to him.

"Damon, Damon," I whisper worriedly while shaking him.
