"No!" I screamed as Damon punched Stefan. He fell to the ground and wiped the blood off his lip.
"Son of a bitch! Why would you do that?!" Damon yelled at his brother.
"You're gonna regret that, but right now I have other things to focus on" Stefan said looking at Damon as he walked over to me. Katherine removed her hand from my back and I screamed in pain.
"Stefan? Please tell me you're somewhere in there" I said as I put a hand to his cheek and tears fell from my eyes.
"No Clara, I'm not." Stefan said rather cheerfully as he looked at Katherine. "So we need to turn her in to Klaus?"
"Wait, you, you're siding with me?" Katherine asked Stefan suspiciously.
"Well I don't really care, it just seems better than staying here and going on with life so sure why the hell not" Stefan said with a big smile. Damon gave me a strange look when suddenly Stefan ripped off part of the wooden stairs and put it right against Damon's heart.
"Stefan no!" I screamed when suddenly the three vampires kneeled to the floor in pain.
"Stop that now!" Katherine screamed and Damon groaned. They all looked at me.
"C-Clara! Stop it, control it!" Damon said as he screamed in pain.
"Control what? What am I doing?" I said and suddenly a wave of energy rushed through me. It was strange, kind of like how you feel when you drink a glass of cold water and feel it go through your system, but this felt so much better. Suddenly my hands started to vibrate and nobody else seemed to notice, was this the witch inside of me that Katherine was talking about?
"Katherine help me! I don't know what's happening!" I said as I started to panic. Is this what Bonnie felt that night she came pleading for help?
"You need to control yourself, get your shit together!" She screamed out in pain. Part of me wanted to stop for Damon and Stefan's sake but there was another part of me, I wanted to watch Katherine suffer, I took pleasure in it. That part of myself scared me, but it brought an adrenaline rush too, it was all so new and strange. I suddenly started to focus only on Katherine and somehow my magic just shifted to her. Damon groaned as he stood back up.
"We need to get her a magic tutor now" Damon said rubbing his head and Katherine continued to cry out in pain from my magic.
"Please!" Katherine pleaded.
"You tried to kill me, you tried to sell my soul to this Klaus. You made Stefan turn his humanity off, you killed my aunt, one of my last family members. Mark my words Katerina Petrova, I will not forget this, I will make you suffer and you will regret this." I said sternly and my eyes started glowing gold.
"Woah there Clara, tone it down, she's dying" Damon said and suddenly Stefan stood up. My focus was broken when I saw Stefan.
"Stefan!" I said as I got out of that weird trance but before I could say or do anything, he whooshed out of the house. I had no idea what had just happened, I had these witch abilities but I didn't know how to control them.
"No! He's gone!" I screamed as I tripped over Jenna's dead body.
"Clara!" Damon said as he stopped me, I looked below me in horror to see my aunts dead body. I guess I had forgotten about that. In that moment all I wanted was Stefan, I needed to be held in his arms, I needed to feel that security that he gave me, but he was gone. Katherine was lying on the floor, she was unconscious and would probably be like that for a while. Tears started flowing down my eyes as I fell to the ground. I looked up at Damon and I could tell he was uncomfortable, he wasn't used to these emotional encounters.
"You don't have to stay..." I said as I tried to stop the tears. I figured shutting off my emotions would be the best choice in this situation, for my own sanity.
"It's fine, I'll take care of the body. You need to get some rest." Damon said as he helped me up and I walked upstairs.
"Are you sure?" I said as I stood beside my bed and took out my pjs and Damon nodded. He left the room as I started to wonder about this "tribrid" legend. I needed to find out more but its not like I could just search it up on google. I ended up picking up the supernatural book that my uncle John had given me as a girl. I was that strange kid that was always into the scary and forbidden things. My uncle embraced that part of me and he gifted me with such things to match my personality. I started looking through the books, some of these were ancient according to him, he too had always had an infatuation with these type of things. One of the books specifically talked about the trbrid legacy and story. Each ongoing generation would procreate stronger witches, until one specific witch was destined to end the supernatural world, that witch would then magically have werewolf venom inserted in them which would give them the werewolf traits and gene. They would also have the original vampirism spell performed on them and become the first living tribrid.
"The supernatural world is an abomination to the laws of nature, it has created an unbalance in the world." I read to myself then it hit me, what if I was supposed to be that witch to destroy the supernatural world?
"I thought you were supposed to be asleep" Damon said lowly as he leaned against my door and I quickly shut the book.
"I couldn't sleep" I said and he walked over to me.
"Well, your aunt is all buried up and I'm draining Katherine from vervain to get information out of her. What are you reading?" he asked.
"Nothing"
"Don't tell me you're reading a book that makes you horny.." he said with a smirk as he took the book from my desk and I gave him an angry look.
"Give it back!" I said as I tried to take it from him but it was useless, I was probably never getting that book back knowing Damon. I finally grabbed a hold of the book and Damon looked me dead in the eyes as he pushed me and my back was against my bookcase.
"This feels familiar" he whispered and I could feel myself getting red. This was the first time I actually let myself realize just how handsome and sexy he was, I always knew he was attractive but I guess I had never allowed myself to notice and accept it.
"Damon stop" I said trying to push him off but he wouldn't budge and suddenly tears started coming out of my eyes. I covered my face embarrassed and Damon seemed as if he actually felt bad for me.
"Hey, Clara, it's ok... you're gonna be ok" Damon said as he gently removed my hands from my face.
"That's just it Damon, I'm not. I lost my parents, my sister, my brother is in another country because I was too scared to loose him to a supernatural world, my vampire boyfriend shut his humanity off, his ex lover is out to get me to turn me in to the original hybrid who wants to probably kill me since I'm supposed to be the first tribrid which is supposed to kill the entire supernatural world" I said in between tears and Damon looked as confused as ever.
"Wait recap that last part, where did you get that from?" Damon asked curiously and I took the book from his hand and opened it to the tribrid page, he read it and looked me in the eyes.
"You're the one that's going to end us all" he whispered.
