Power Inside *The Vampire Diaries*

Chapter 19

Previously on Power Inside...

I picked up my phone, seeing Elena calling, smiling teasingly as I answered "Well, well, well. Shouldn't you be having fun right-"

"Jill" Elena was crying. My smile faded, leaning forward, putting my book aside in concern "Come and get me please. I'll explain everything"

"Don't worry-" I stood up, walking away from the house "I'm on my way"

~8~

I was driving, nearing the Boarding House having the feeling someone was following me, calling Elena "Walk away from the boarding house. I'm close, I think"

"I think I see your car" Elena told me. "I couldn't be there, I've been walking down the road since I called you"

"You're an idiot" I scolded, "Its the middle of the night, something could happen to you"

There was a man in the middle of the road I couldn't see "Watch out! Someone just appeared in the middle of the road"

I couldn't avoid in time, gasping, trying to stop the car but I hit the man in the road, my car flipping over, rolling down the road.

I coughed up glass, hanging upside down, weakly looking around.

Elena knelt on the ground worriedly, next to my shattered window. I could feel my forehead bleeding "I'm here. We have to get you out of here" We froze, hearing the sound of bones starting to break "Oh, my God"

I tried to follow her gaze, groaning in pain "Lena-"

"Vampire" Elena murmured in fear.

I tried to break free desperately, in shock.

Elena turned to face me, panicked.

We looked toward the vampire, seeing he was wearing a hoodie as he stalked closer.

We screamed in horror, trying to break me free.

I closed my eyes.

Elena shrieked in fear, sighing in relief right after "Damon"

I opened my eyes, looking at her.

Damon was kneeling next to a relieved looking Elena, looking at me "I thought you knew how to drive"

"I still hate you" I told him sighing. I could feel my heartbeat starting to steady, but wouldn't admit out loud that his familiar face did reassure me a bit.

Damon smirked "Well-"

"Damon" Elena warned.

Damon rolled his eyes, "How you holding up in there, red?"

"Stuck" I answered, "It's my seat belt, I think" Damon leaned his head inside, looking at my seat belt, "I never wear it. Mom always scolds me for it, but tonight-"

Damon leaned back, knowingly "Your weirdly banshee powers made you"

"I've been doing things lately I don't know the reason why" I admitted. "Can you get me out of here?"
