Summary: What if Katherine had come back in town in enough time to save Elena, and maybe Matt? Will she get there in time? Will she save them both? After making the car go off the bridge, will Rebekah have the heart to save Matt, or will she leave him to die with Elena?634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnV1FZV2gRh
It was a dark night, as Bonnie and Damon were at a storage unit in a storage shed where Klaus was. They stood there watching him, looking down at his burnt body. Then he opened his eyes.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKm801I4nyz
"There's the crispy fried Original," Damon said.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZJOzHLz95
"Could you give me a minute?" Bonnie asked him, looking at the easy-going vampire.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9tLmW1f8S
"Of course," he answered her.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNooVmeNuLH
He closed the door to the shed and walked off.
Vampire Alaric walked into the storage room, looking for Klaus but saw Damon. He snuck up behind him and put an arm around his throat in a tight hold.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCuF6LHosj
"Where's Klaus?"634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43Dz28Rceh
"How'd you find where he is?"634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7FWF1TPjW
"Answer the question."634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqeR9Xe0cF
"Unit three number 10210," he lied.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEm8dKbvecl
After getting what he needed, he tightened some more, which made him pass out. He let go and let him fall to the ground on his back. Then he walked towards unit three and started searching, opening up storage sheds as he went.
Meanwhile, Bonnie had Klaus who was still in his coffin, in the back of a car and was seated in the passenger's seat, waiting for Damon and Rebekah so they could leave. She then called up Rebekah when she didn't get a hold of Damon.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKUVSucTWu
"I'm just outside. What do you want?"634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJi22vNiZP
"I'm waiting for you two so we can leave," Bonnie replied.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZkuZlc8b2
"Go ahead. We'll meet you there," she said before hanging up.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAipnsJZ87y
She put her cell phone away before entering the building.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqJ4urFWdG
"Damon?" she called.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RKUqnkkai
There was silence.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8EDM4jEXs
"This isn't funny, Damon," she added.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfTcEOP6b4
A moment after she added that, she saw him passed out on the cement floor. She ran to and knelt beside him. She was wary while making sure he was okay or going to be okay. Someone else besides them was here.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBuTrCiaIc
"Damon?" she called to him. "Come on, Damon. Wake up."634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoswUReSlQf
She softly slapped him on the cheek.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHFXgrDjIm
He groaned and then came to, looking up at her.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPd4W8KeQb
"You're here."634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAW2EaJF5E
"I've been here for the last five minutes," she answered, as he slowly sat up.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKzHLsMqBa
"We got to go. Ric's here. And he's intent on killing Originals first. You're in danger if he gets anywhere near you. Come on."634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkX6392APPu
A moment later, they were running.
Bonnie was about to drive off, when Alaric arrived.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyksDtQBAqY
"Hello, Bonnie."634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31k18m7sMo
"Alaric."634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLgmyQ9Jtz
"Why don't you be kind and hand me Klaus."634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3RfnIyWVi
"So you can kill him? No."634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3Ma7OW3j0
"No? I thought we were friends. Come on. I have to kill him and the rest of his family so I can kill the rest of the vampire race. That is if you want. Right? To have a normal life without vampires to ruin everything?"634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk11Zyy1HW1
"Go rot in hell," she retorted.
"I like the choice of words," Damon said, Rebekah at his side.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8v4OFSfEr
Alaric looked at him.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPjEYlWiLP
"Glad you made it."634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1MgXvYDQb
He opened up the back of the car and then opened up his coffin. Klaus looked up at him before he plunged the stake into his heart and they all watched Klaus burn in flames.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYeKdcUZjf
"No!" Rebekah half yelled and half sobbed. Then, before Damon could stop her, she ran towards Alaric as Alaric closed the lid to the burning Original. She grabbed him and through him hard, acting on revenge, before Damon grabbed her.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIclFISENt
"Get in the car," he said.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRhSOMH3YU
"No," she replied, before running off at vamp speed.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HsYEf0OQG
"Okay. Be stubborn then," he said, and then thought to Bonnie, Go home. I'll handle Ric.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDA4fsC2KwB
A moment later, Bonnie drove out, heading back to Mystic Falls, her destination being her home.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtg7JBbN7aq
Damon and Alaric faced off, ready to fight.
Back at Mystic Falls, Rebekah was in the woods on the phone with Stefan.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eBlztPzPI
"Elijah just told me everything. Oh, and Klaus is dead. Alaric killed him. Without him, I'm nothing. He deserves to die for what he did. You know the only way he'll die," she told him.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfHc8ADj07
"Rebekah, don't do this," was all Stefan got out before she hung up on him.
It was a dark night, as Matt drove Elena in his truck, heading out of town. Elena wasn't completely okay with it, but she had talked to Stefan and she was getting ready to call Damon.
Damon thought Ric was going to fight him, but he didn't. He punched him to the ground once and then he walked away.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hxismU8XO
Damon answered his phone.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Vvx073flw
"Hello, Elena."634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmUwrdprOG
"I heard. Do you feel anything?"634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmo5Li3MZu
"Not yet. But since I might be a dead man, if you had to choose, who would it be? Who would be the one to get the good-bye?"634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUEFGoQX2I
"I love you, Damon. But I never stopped loving Stefan. I love you both. I don't want to choose, but if I had to, I would choose you. I love you. I had my time with Stefan, but as much as I still love him, he hurt me so much. That's something I don't know if I can forgive. Not right now."634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FcFZWnUFD
Suddenly, Elena saw Rebecca standing in the middle of the road on the bridge.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjd6lreejdf
"Matt, watch out!" she yelled.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoj2cpjsNV
He slammed on the brakes and swerved to avoid hitting Klaus' sister. He tried to stay on the road at the same time, but didn't succeed. The truck fell off the bridge and plummeted into the ice-cold water below.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8BlN3MMd7
Damon heard everything. He hung up and ran towards Mystic Falls at vamp speed.
A few minutes later, Rebekah made a life changing decision. She dove under the water towards the truck and pulled Matt out, closing the door behind her so Elena couldn't get out.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnefWY8zhZW
A moment later, she was out of sight with Matt and on her way home.
Katherine had just arrived back in town and was walking down the road on her way to Elena's, when she saw what had happened with her own eyes, which never deceived her. She stopped in the middle of the bridge and took her jacket off before diving in and swimming towards the truck. She knew Elena was still in there.
When she got there, she knew she was dead, but she didn't care. She dove inside the truck, put a gentle arm around her, and swam to the surface with her.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPsE8r2RF9
Just as she surfaced with her, Damon arrived on the bridge. When he saw her, he took Elena from her and got her onto the bridge. He gently layed her down and did heart compressions to try and revive her.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aiwRqnZWC
"Come on, Elena. Come on," he pleaded, knelt beside her.
Five minutes later, she coughed and then looked up at him.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUK8bHZ1Kp
"Damon."634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrXyAcjdGf
"Elena."634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpx4wDTrVt1
Suddenly, Elena realized something after he helped her to her feet and put his dry jacket around her.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZACt30t17
"Katherine. Where is she?"634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbH8mh6CnF
Damon looked at the water.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEfyEmysHQ
"She was there. I'll go find her. Get yourself home. Call Stefan if you have to," he said before jumping into the water in search of her.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwJyY7KH7M
He soon spotted her leaned against a post underneath the bridge, eyes closed.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡID4dAr6aIW
"Katherine?"634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pFQzQW6L4
He swam towards her.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7zJFbiFc8
When he got to her, he saw a stake in her abdomen. She was bleeding out heavily and as he looked at her. She was pale with blue lips and cracked-looking skin. That's when he knew she was dying. Her last deed had been to save Elena. And she had. Now he had to save his Sire.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsX1AkxcGY
"Hold on, Kat," he pleaded to her before gently picking her up and carrying her in his arms, running towards Elena's at vamp speed.
Jeremy walked into the living room when he saw Alaric.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LX7h1UDoK
"How'd you get in here?" he asked.
"Easy. I'm a ghost. I just had to tell you that I will always be with you, before I go to where I belong now. I'll be here whenever you need me. I'll always be there for you no matter what. Take care."634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPd78TaOSpU
And with that, he vanished into thin air.
A few minutes after Elena walked in, Damon rushed in into the living room with a dying Kat in his arms.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkPxOsZNMY
"Damon?" Elena questioned, as he layed his sire down on the couch and then bit his wrist, putting it to her lips, positioning Kat's head gently back, as to make his blood go down her throat.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCX3pSQ6yJM
"Jeremy, grab a towel. Elena, pull it out," Damon ordered.
A moment later, she pulled it out and Jeremy gave his sister a towel. She immediately applied pressure to the wound with the towel to stop the bleeding.
A few minutes later, her wound healed and Kat came to.634Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YntwxJse6
As Kat fed on Damon's blood, Elena had Jeremy put the towel in the washer. So everybody lived happily ever after.
