Out of the Box {A Vampire Diaries Fan Fiction}

Chapter 18

Andorra went to Olympus to get the one thing that could help her save Xander. The only way for things to be the way they should was for Xander to be human again. “I’m not getting in to this,” Apollo said hugging his sister and trying to hush her cries. “This is your fight not mine.”

“Please Apollo I just need your blood. Once I get Xander out of the picture she’ll get bored and everything can be as it was,” Andorra cried looking up at her brother. She knew being in Olympus was a death sentence, but she wasn’t going to let Alexander be a vampire, and under Artemis and Klaus’s control.

“Just let her have the boy. Everyone is already plotting against you,” Apollo told her. “Unless you’re going to run to Zeus or Demeter you’ve already lost.”

“You won’t fight with me?” Andorra asked with tears in her eyes.

“I love you a great deal Andorra, but me and Artemis are twins. I’d never rise against her, no matter how wrong she is,” he said looking meaningfully into Andorra’s eyes. “Athena has Ares and Hestia on her side, Artemis has enlisted the help of her nymphs and the vampires you offended.  And all you have are Perseus and Persephone.  Zeus won’t help you, because it will upset Hera, and Demeter can’t do much,” he side spelling it out for her.

“What do you purpose I do? I can’t let my friends get hurt because of some blood feud. I don’t want to be a goddess, I don’t want to live in isolation, and have no freedom. I’m imprisoned by fear, and it’s been that way since I was a child,” she yelled. “Zeus turned Hercules into a full God too, but no one treats him like this.”

“Zeus was never supposed to be with your mother. She wasn’t Greek,” Apollo yelled.

“So you see me like the others do?” she questioned seeing the hatred in his eyes.

“Andorra don’t you dare say that to me,” he said looking at her as if she unexpectedly slapped him across the face.

“I’m sorry. It’s just hard when the people who are supposed to love you must treat you like an outcast and hurt you so much,” Andorra said starting to cry again. If she could go back in time, and make sure Zeus never made her an immortal, she’d do it in a heartbeat. The only thing that being a goddess brought her was pain.

The moment Andorra found out her father was the king of the Greek gods, she and her mother were ill. A plague swapped over Egypt, and killed hundreds. Andorra’s mother Ain was the daughter of Ramessess II and his favorite wife Nefertari. Ain was the most beautiful woman Andorra had ever seen. Andorra shared many of her father features and her one regret was that she didn’t have her mother glowing green eyes. Andorra remembered looking into those eyes as her mother lay dying. “Andorra my life,” Ain said to her daughter.

“Mother, don’t speak,” Andorra said. She felt weak, and couldn’t imagine the pain her mother felt.

“I must tell you something,” she said signaling her handmaids out of the room. When they were gone Ain grabbed Andorra’s hand. “My dear, dear child I’m so sorry I have to leave you like this,” Ain cried.  

“Mother you will be well soon. Grandfather will find a priest that can cure you. Ra would never take the princess of Egypt so soon,” Andorra cried.

“Andorra I’ve disturbed the natural balance of our world when I had you. I’ve greatly angered the Gods and set about this plague.”-

“Mother you’re just ill, none of this is your fault,” Andorra said writing her mother’s words off as fever gibberish.

“No Andorra. I’m sorry this is confusing, but what I speak is the truth. You must understand that I love you with all my heart, but for the fate of Egypt I must let you go,” she smiled. “Your father promised me you’ll be safe and well looked after.”

“I’m not leaving you mother,” Andorra promised.

Ain placed a gentle hand on her daughter’s cheek and wiped a tear away. “I love you with everything I am and I’ll carry that love with me into the next life,” she said to Andorra. “I have to pay for my mistakes before the whole of Egypt is destroyed.”

“Mother,” Andorra cried as her mother’s eyes closed and a loose tear fell from them. Andorra felt numb, like the world had stop spinning. Then a sharp pain shot through her chest and she found it hard to breath. Soon she felt the world go cold and she exhaled her last breath. When Andorra woke she was in Olympus with Hermes who was the one to reveal her mother and father’s deal.

Andorra’s life as a goddess started with pain, loneliness, and heartache, but if it was going to end that way she wanted to fight back. “Apollo, please say you’ll help me?” Andorra begged.

“Dori” he said looking into his sisters sad eyes not able to find the strength to say no.

“””””””””””””””

“Damon she’s not answering her phone,” Caroline said as she paced the room. No one could find Bonnie anywhere. Damon knew he should’ve gone after her, but he stayed behind and now Bonnie was gone.

“Well call again,” Damon yelled at her.

“She’s not going to pick up. She’s hurt or something and we need to find her,” Caroline yelled at him.

“That’s why I told you to call again,” he said losing his patients with the baby vampire.

“Damon,” Elena yelled as she walked into the library with Stefan and Jeremy.

“Where’s Bonnie?” Damon asked.       

“We couldn’t find her,” Jeremy said. Damon charged the boy and pinned him against the wall with his forearm pressing against Jeremy’s throat.

“Look harder,” Damon said through his teeth.

“Damon!” Stefan yelled as he pulled him off of Jeremy. “Calm down we’ll find her,” he said as Caroline’s phone rung.

“Bonnie?” Caroline asked.

“Sorry love it’s only me,” Klaus sung in her ear.

“Where’s Bonnie?” Caroline demanded.

“She’s perfectly fine at the moment, but I’d really love it if you’d bring Andorra over to my place so that we can get this party started. And love, make sure the Salvatores know they’re not invited. It’s invitation only I’m afraid.”

Damon grabbed Caroline’s phone. “If you don’t bring Bonnie back here in one piece I’ll kill you with my bare hands,” Damon yelled.

“I heard Bonnie had you pussy whipped, but mate this is worse than Elena,” Klaus laughed.

“Klaus,” Damon yelled at the dial tone. Damon left the room too fast for anyone to stop him.

“””””””””””””””””””””””””

“Rebekah,” Matt yelled as he stopped her by the entrance to the grill.

“Love,” Rebekah said going to kiss his lips, but making contact with his cheek instead. “Whatever is the matter with you,” she smiled innocently at him.

“Where’s Bonnie?” he demanded.

“You’ll have to find Damon and ask him so I hear,” she smiled.

“For a second I honestly thought you’ve changed and that maybe we meant something to you. Now I know I was wrong, and I felt so guilty about kissing Elena and now I don’t,” he confessed to the sideswiped blonde.

“You kissed Elena?” she asked.

“Yeah, I was going to tell you when I found out about Bonnie,” he said looking into Rebekah’s eyes.

“Find since I mean nothing to you I’ll be on my way,” Rebekah said turning and leaving at vampire speed before Matt could ask her if she was okay.
