I was telling myself not to look back. Just run.
"Keep running." "Run" "Run!" "Don’t look back!"
I continued saying those words in my head, repeatedly, so I wouldn’t look back. But as in the New Year’s Eve, the feeling of doing something that I didn’t really wanted to do predominated, and I looked back. No one was coming. There was a huge tree so I let myself get some rest. I leaned against it. I grabbed the phone: No signal. Not again... Alone in the woods, it was dark and I was being hunted. What was worse was that at that moment I wouldn’t find Liam lost over there too.
Burst into tears. I hated being alone in an unfamiliar place.
I clung to my legs as I used to when I was little and I let those feelings come out.
"Here Caroline, come here." I looked forward. I was not expecting the aid of spirits that time.
"Grandma?" I saw the woman there. Not that I don’t need her help, because I needed to, it’s just... she followed me everywhere. "What are you doing here?"
"Oh dear, I'm here to protect you, obviously."
"Grandma, you don’t even know the places here, how do you want to help me?"
"Dear, I'm not going to help you out, you just got it wrong... I’ll protect you."
The woman was dead, how did she wanted to protect me if someone came around to kill me? "Do you know who's stalking me?"
"You are not being stalked." She said ironically.
"But then... what was that?"
"They were not chasing, but the Original vampire. They aren’t worried about you. Probably they haven’t seen you."
"How so?"
"Witches are under the orders of the vampire, Marcel, he ordered them to capture Elijah and only him. They don’t even know you. I guess."
"I have to go help him, Grandma."
"No. You'll stay here, very quiet until your boyfriend” she said that word with disdain “comes to save you."
"But he may need help..."
"How do you think he survived 1000 years?"
"I don’t know, I wasn’t there to see."
"Honey, they learn, they have tricks, he can get by, by himself.”
I was talking to my grandmother all the time, until sleep took me, I lay down on the floor. The sleep led me to wonder what was happening on the other side.

After Caroline run, Elijah was fine.
He rose gracefully from the ground and straightened his suit, this time with dirty earth. He looked around and a group of witches began get around it. He could count three.
