Little Witch

Our Town

-

"Alright guys, lets do our worst." I say as I close my eyes and put my hands on the coffin as I chanted in latin. When I finished I went to open it but it's still locked shut. "Damn it! Why won't you open?!" I yelled throwing my hands up, suddenly the coffins disappear. My head snaps to the door as I hear the floorboards squeaking, there's someone else in the house. "Hello? Someone there?" I asked but it was silent, "hide." I hear and nod as I ducked around the corner. I silently counted to three, before I walk slowly to the staircase; when I turn to walk up the stairs, I  see Damon there. He puts his finger to his lips to quiet me and listens intently. He then flashes away and I sigh softly running up the stairs as he throws the heart on the ground.

Damon fiercely hits the coffin with a shovel, as I cross my arms, "You're wasting your time. It won't open." I snark, "Did you bury the body?" Stefan asked, "Yeah. Any sign of our little hybrid buddies?" Damon asked, "Nope, just the dead one."

I rubbed my hands together and thrusted them out, as all the coffins appear, "Alright, Klaus has 6 siblings. Rebekah is now with Klaus. There was one dead kid in the old world, one dead kid in the new world, which leaves Elijah and two others. Three sleeping originals, four coffins. So, who is in the locked box?" I asked them. "No idea. But whatever is in here, Bonnie seems to think will help us kill Klaus. So, the sooner you can get this open, the sooner we will know if she's right." Stefan tells me. "Oh, you think the spirits of a bunch of dead witches that can make the coffins invisible would have figured out how to open one." Damon snarked and tilts head towards ceiling towards the spirits expectantly. "Fine, don't help."

I rolled my eyes, "They don't like you D." I tell him and he rolled his eyes. "You know, none of this is gonna do us any good if Klaus's hybrid friends find our hiding place, right? They need to go away." Stefan says, "Oh yeah, that's a great idea Stefan. Why don't you just ask them to pack their bags and take a long rest while we are at it. How about try to keep the peace? Don't attract attention to the real thing we are trying to hide." Damon snapped, "Well, I'm not gonna play defense when I have what Klaus wants. He does what I say, or I dump his family to the bottom of the ocean." Stefan tells him."And then he kills you and everyone you know like, I don't know...Damon! Me?" I yell, "No, he's bluffing. His family means more to him than anything else." Stefan tells me, "You sure about that?" I ask, "Well I don't know Aaliyah. I mean, I guess there's only one way to find out, right? Call his bluff." Stefan says and I throw my hands up, "The only way to call someones bluff, Stefan, is to be willing to lose everything if you're wrong, and I don't know about you but I'm not down for those odds." Stefan smiles at Damon and I and leaves, ignoring my words. "He's unbelievable." I mumble, and sit back on the ground next to the locked box.

When the sun started to set my phone buzzed, I grabbed it seeing a text from Stefan

'Come outside.'

I sighed and stood up going to walk outside. I stopped at the doorway, and looked around before going outside. A hand went over my mouth and I struggled as he then held his head in pain. I pushed him to the ground and ran away from Stefan. He flashed to in front of me, but it was like a forcefield as I turned and ran to the basement. I grabbed my phone off the coffin and texted Damon.

'SOS STEFAN HAS GONE CRAZY. 911 BACK UP. NOW.'

"Come out come out." I hear as a chair broke beside my head. I tried to sneak away but I hit the ground groaning. I put a hand to the back of my head and pulled back seeing blood. Suddenly as I turned I screamed as Stefan bit me.

I gasped as I looked around finding myself in a dark box. "HELP" I screamed as I pounded on the top. "TYLER" I screamed as tears came to my eyes. "DAMON!" I yelled as I flung myself around. "ANYONE.. PLEASE" I screamed as I sobbed. "HELP PLEASE!" I screamed and closed my eyes sobbing. Suddenly the door opened and I saw Damon, "Aaliyah." he breathed and helped me out as I cried into his chest. "I got you." he breathed, "I got you."

When I finally stopped crying, he drove me home and I just sat there. He sighed and came over picking me up taking me to my room, and sitting me on my bed sitting next to me. "Are you okay?" He asked me, "My throat hurts" I told him laying my head on his chest. "I thought it wasn't safe for me here?" I asked as I looked around my room, "Klaus told his hybrids to leave town, Tyler is still here, but he gave his word not to hurt you." Damon explained and I nodded. "I want Stefan to stay away from me." I mumbled and he rubbed my back, "I know."
