Little Witch

The Dinner Party

—

"AALIYAH" My mother yells and Noah and I share a look before I go down the stairs. "Yes mom?" I asked. "I'm in here." she says and I follow her voice to my fathers study. "I need you to take this box to the Guilberts. Jenna is meeting with someone from the historical society." She tells me and I nod as I grab it. She kissed my head before leaving me alone. I walked outside as Noah appeared and opened my car door, before taking the heavy box from me with ease.

I went to get out of the car, but Noah stopped me. "What is it?" I asked and turned to him. "Elijah is here." He mumbled and I raised an eyebrow. "Stay here." He told me and flashed up leaving the box, before flashing back to the car. He drove off as door opened.

We stood in my room as I faced the window. My phone buzzed and I looked down at my phone

Damon: Waiting for you.

I turned and smiled as I kissed Noah, and he kissed me back, before I snapped his neck.

I rushed into the tomb and sighed as Damon turned to me, "About time." he joked, "Sorry needed to loose my protection detail." I told him, "Are we doing this or what?" Damon turned and moved the stone that hid Katherine's hiding spot. Katherine's body has desiccated. Damon waves a bottle of blood under her nose and pours some in her mouth. She starts to drink. "Great. Drink up. Good girl." Damon says and She takes the bottle out of his hands and continues to drink. Damon gets up.

"I've come bearing gifts. I didn't have time to properly shop, but I did get a couple of things. Hmm?" I said and hang some clothes on the iron grating for Katherine. Katherine looks normal again and crushes the empty blood bottle in her hands. "Wow, that blood did the trick. You're almost pretty again." Damon snarks. "What is it you want, Damon?" Katherine asks, "Guess who's back in town? Your old friend, John Gilbert." I told her"Really. Why?" She asks me, "Says he loves his daughter, wants to protect her from Elijah and big, bad Klaus." Damon tells her, "Touching." Katherine pulls herself up from the ground, as Damon says, "Yeah, right. He told me this old wives tale about how to kill an Original."

"And you want to know if it's true. If it was, I wouldn't tell you." Katherine asks, and it was silent. Katherine goes over to the clothes I hung up and grabs a jacket off the hanger. "Now, why not? I mean, you want Elijah and Klaus dead as much as we all do" I called out folding my arms, "Klaus, yes. Elijah, no. He's compelled me to stay in here. If he dies, I'm stuck forever." Katherine says and I chuckle, "Sucks for you."

"Forget it, Damon. Killing Elijah would be a suicide mission. You can't do it." Katherine tells him, "Can so." Damon argued, "Can't." SHe says stubbornly, "Even with a dagger and a little white oak ash?" Damon aska and She turns and looks at him with an expression of surprise. "No. Damon, if you kill Elijah, then I'm stuck in here forever."

"You're really scared, or just acting." I snapped, "Just get me out of here first and then I'll help you. I'll...I'll help you kill Elijah or...or protect Elena. Whatever you want." Katherine begged, "I get you out of here and your ass is sipping Klaus-free margaritas on some unknown island somewhere. No way." Damon told her, "That's not true. I'll stay. Damon, please just don't do it."
