The Owl Gilbert

1:14: Tomb Unleashed

I slowly wake up to see that I'm not in a familar room, or well, any inside my house and put my right hand to my forehead, and Elena and I look at each other, and to see the sleeping man in the chair; a vampire. We quickly sit up and I point at the door with my right index finger, and put it down. We slowly put our feet to the floor to not wake him up with his supernatural hearing, and quickly run to the door. I hear the lock unhatch as I'm staring at the sleeping vampire, and gasp as he appears in front of us. "I wouldn't." He says and looks at us both directly in the eyes. Idiot. "Don't try to escape. Don't even move. Do you two understand?" He asks. "I understand." Elena and I say at the same time, he chuckles and walks past us, and Elena swings the door open, only to be stopped by the girl in black hair. Anna. She grabs us by the necks and leads us back into the room after shutting the door, and looks at the guy. "Seriously?!" She exclaims and lets our necks go, dragging us by our hands to the bathroom. "I told them not to move. I did that eye thing that you taught me." He says. "And forgot the lesson about vervain. She dates a vampire, Ben. Duh." She says. "Who are you? What do you want?" Elena asks. "Doesn't matter." Anna says and pushes us into the bathroom; which is boarded up and locked from the outside. "Great." I say and sigh, and see her turn the light on with her right index finger, and see Bonnie in a tub, unconcious. "Bonnie?" Elena asks and we run over to her, trying to wake her up. "Oh, my God." She says. "That's Anna, Jeremy's girlfriend for you." I say.

We're still in the bathroom and I see Elena put a cold rag to Bonnie's face as I'm checking her pulse. "Her pulse is steady." I say and see Bonnie slowly open her eyes. "Bonnie?" Elena asks. "Elena? Adam?" She asks. "You're okay." I say and smile at her. "My head.." She says and Elena and I help her sit up. "Oh, my God! Ben is a--" She says and Elena interrupts her by shushing her. "They can hear." She says and I run over to the sink, and let the water run by turning it on with my right hand. "I'm so stupid!" Bonnie says as I run back over to them. "No, he had all of us fooled." Elena says. "I don't even know the guy." I whisper. "What's going on? Why are we here?" Bonnie asks. "It must have something to do with the tomb and Emily's spell book." I say. "Spell book?" Bonnie asks. "Grimoire, if that helps." I say. "Damon said it could be used to open the tomb." Elena says. "Why didn't I know about any of this?" Bonnie asks. "I was trying to keep you out of it, hoping it would never come to this." Elena says. "Come to what?" Bonnie asks. "They need a witch.. to break the spell and let the vampires out." I say. "No way." Bonnie says. "I know--" Elena says and the door burst open and we look at Ben, and he turns the water off with his right hand. "You're wasting your time. I'm not gonna help you." Bonnie says and Ben walks over to us, and grab Elena and I by the back of our necks. "That's why their here. Motivation for you to behave. You know, you shouldn't be so desperate. You made it too easy." Ben says and drags Elena and I out of the room after moving his hands to our wrists. "She wants to talk to you both." He says and shoves us out the door, and closers it behind him with his left hand. "Well, well.." Anna says and we look at her. "Adam and Elena Gilbert. You two really are Katherine and Dimitri's doppelgängers. You two must have the Salvatore boys reeling." She says. "Who are you?" Elena asks, shaking her head. "I'm Anna. Your brother may have mentioned me. I mean, we're like, practically dating." She says. "Well, at least you have nice hair." I say. "Thanks." She says and Elena looks at me. "What? She has nice hair. Maybe I should get some black highlights or something." I say.

Elena and I are sitting on the bed, her on my right side while Anna is looking out the window. "Bonnie's not going to open the tomb." Elena says. "Oh, I think she will." Anna says. "Do you really want Katherine out that badly?" Elena asks and Anna looks at us. "Trust me. No one I know wants to see that girl again. Except Damon, the lovestruck idiot." She says. "Then what is it? Or who is it?" I ask. "My mother's in there." She says and walks over to us. "Katherine couldn't help herself. She and Dimitri just had to toy around with both of the Salvatore brothers. And when she got caught, so did my mother. Dimitri was never found. I watched Johnathan Gilbert take her away." She says. "I'm sorry." Elena says, sincerely. "You really mean that, don't you?" Anna asks and chuckles. "Yeah, I think we'll skip the dead mom bonding so you can start serving a purpose." Anna says. "Which is what?" I ask. "Leverage." She says and grabs Elena's phone off the table with her right hand, and Elena stands up, reaching for it and Anna pulls her hand back. "Nope." She says and walks over to the door, dialing someone. "She and Adam are fine, for now. Tell me you have the Grimoire and they'll stay fine. Which means your brother has it. And I have the witch. So one of you had better meet me in the very public town square in thirty minutes so we can safely discuss how fun it's gonna be to work together." Anna says and hangs up.
