10x01 - Remember Paris? (Part 2) Enjoy! =)

Cut to – The Bamon home, early morning. Damon is making some vamp cakes for breakfast; Bonnie is preparing their coffee.

 BONNIE: Thank you for last night…

DAMON: You have nothing to thank me for. And, when you are ready, I’m here to listen.

BONNIE: (Kisses him) I love you.

DAMON: I love you too. (He sets the plates on the table; they sit down to eat, although they barely touch their food). Bonnie… I really need you to know that you can talk to me about this. I know you might feel hesitant because of  who he is, and what we have. But, above all, I’m your best friend. I can put the jealous and insecure boyfriend on pause, at least for a little while. The only thing I care about is making sure you’ll be okay.

BONNIE: He caught me off guard…

DAMON: Both of us…

BONNIE: When I linked with the source, and had that astral projection, the first person I thought about was him…

DAMON: I know…

BONNIE: I waited day after day, thinking he might be lost. Did every single spell in my grimoire, looked for other witches and psychics that could help, but nothing… Then, time passed, and he never showed, so I gave up … And now, after months, he makes his appearance as if nothing happened? How could he do this to me? How could he wait all this time? Why?

DAMON: I will forever hate him for doing that to you, no matter his excuse. But, Bon, the only way you are going to get the answers to those questions, is if you ask him yourself… Last night, after I punched him, I asked him to stay away from you, and I had no right. That is your choice to make, not mine. You deserve to know the truth…

BONNIE: You punched him?

DAMON: Of course I did; he hurt you.

BONNIE: Did you get him good?

DAMON: Oh, I totally did! Bastard fell to the ground in a blink of an eye! Then again, he’s always been a featherweight.

BONNIE: (Laughs) I love that whatever the circumstance, you always find a way to make me laugh. And, you are my best friend, but you are also my soulmate… I know this can’t be easy for you, but I need you to know you have nothing to worry about. I’m in love with you, and only you…

DAMON: I’m not going to lie, Bon. When I saw him, I almost pissed my pants. Hell, I even broke the most expensive bottle we have. Within a second, I saw my life, my dreams, slipping through my hands. But then, I remembered all those nights I heard you cry, and that is what truly drove me mad. I never, and I mean never, want to hear you cry like that again…

BONNIE: (Softly grabs his face) As long as I am with you, I know I won’t… (kisses him). 

But… the most expensive bottle? Seriously? 

(They laugh, then finally enjoy their vamp cakes).  

Cut to – The Salvatore school, first day of classes after the winter break. Ric is in his office, still trying to reach Caroline, with no luck. Leaves a voicemail. Care, I know you are on your time off, and you probably have no reception. But, if you get my message by any chance, try to find a way to call the girls, they really want to talk to you. Someone knocks; he hangs up.

 RIC: Come in.

IKER: Reporting for duty, Professor Saltzman.

RIC: (Gets up and greets him with a bro hug) Hey, man! So glad to have you on board! Welcome to the faculty! At least one of the teachers is on time!

IKER: First day on the job, punctuality is a must!

RIC: Yeah, well not all teachers have your sense of ethics. Just give me a sec to make some calls,  and I’ll give you the tour. (Dials Katherine, straight to voicemail) Katherine, you better get your butt here fast, your class starts in 20 minutes! (Hangs up). Why am I even surprised… there hasn’t been a day she has been on time! (Dials Lexi).

LEXI: Calm down, Ric; we are almost there.

RIC: Great, see you soon. (Hangs up; soon after Margo walks in with the new student, the three year old vampire. Iker looks at him, surprised to see such a young pupil. Ric approaches the boy, squats down to make eye contact). 

Hey, little one, welcome to the Salvatore School. I promise we will take great care of you… (as expected, no response. He looks up at Margo, she shakes her head, letting him know the boy still hasn’t said a word). Okay… Ms. Margo is going to show you around the school, there are a lot of cool places I’m sure you will love. And, we got a room done specially for you. It’s in the main house, right next to my daughter’s bedroom. You will meet them soon, I’m sure you’ll get along great with them. (Turns to Margo) Radka is in the teacher’s lounge grabbing some coffee; if you want to meet up with her so she can go with you.

MARGO: Yes, I need as much help as I can get.  I’ll look for you afterwards, we need to talk.

(She walks out with the boy).  

IKER: Wow, I didn’t know you had students that were so young.

RIC: We don’t, he is the first one.

IKER: Is he a witch?

RIC: A vampire…

IKER: What!?? Who the hell would do that to a kid?!!

RIC: I know, it’s the cruelest thing I’ve ever seen, and I have seen my share of cruel.

IKER: That goes beyond cruel, that’s pure evil.

RIC: It is. I really hope we are able to help him.

IKER: You can count on me with whatever I can do to help.

RIC: Thank you. I think it’s going to take all of us to be able to get through to him.

IKER: Well, I’m in.

RIC: Okay, let’s take the tour. Here (hands him his schedule).

IKER: Ooh, “Combat and Tactics”, loving this already!

RIC: (Smirks in excitement) Wait till I show you the training gym, and the weapons room…

IKER: You had me at “combat”… 

(they leave).  

Cut to - Augustus’s underground facility, late at night. Kai is in the tech room; continuing to try and hack into Tamara’s system. “Bonnie” walks in.

 BONNIE: How is it going, handsome?

KAI: (Blushes) I almost cracked it, Bonster! 

I was about 2 seconds behind before she reprogrammed herself.

BONNIE: That’s great news, definitely progress. Better than the rest of the tech team has been able to do. Shouldn’t take you too long to get it done.

KAI: Nop, I almost have her…

BONNIE: (Flirtatious) Tell you what, if you manage to pull this off, I’ll give you a nice surprise.

KAI: (Blushing again) A surprise… I love surprises. Tell me, Bon, what is it?

BONNIE: It wouldn’t be a surprise if I told you, but I’m sure you’ll love it (winks, and walks away. Soon after, Katherine walks in).

KAI: Agent Pierce, I was just telling Bonnie that I’m very close to completing the mission.

KATHERINE: Very close is not mission complete, try harder.

KAI: Oh, come on, Agent, don’t be such a pessimist. These things are complicated, they take time.

KATHERINE: Sorry. You are actually the only one that is getting any progress done! I’m just under a lot of pressure.

KAI: So am I, but stressing out only makes things worse. Try to relax, stress is no friend to the skin. You don’t want that beautiful face to age prematurely, do you?

KATHERINE: Over my dead body!

KAI: (They laugh) Tell you what, my break is in 10 minutes, how about we get a drink?

KATHERINE: Well, I could use a drink…

KAI: Enough said, it’s a date!

KATHERINE: It’s a drink, not a date.

KAI: You say tomayto, I say tomahto…

Cut to – The facility’s lab. Darius is showing SA Connelly and Pietro his new genetic prototypes.

 PIETRO: Very impressive, my friend.

SA CONNELLY: Very much indeed… but a tad bit freaky.

DARIUS: I have to say, couldn’t have done it without Kai. Credit where credit's due. He really is one of a kind. Don’t tell Augustus I said this, but I truly think he has surpassed the master…

PIETRO: Speaking of, he just confirmed he’ll connect to our conference tomorrow. All the board members will be in attendance.

SA CONNELLY: Good to know that Tamara is at least giving him a chance to do home office.

DARIUS: As long as he is available to connect, I’m fine with him working with pajama pants.

PIETRO: Yes, but he still needs to come in to do the field work. The Gemini freak might be talented, but he is not one of us.

SA CONNELLY: It’s just a matter of time before Kai cracks the code, we just need to be patient, and do with what we have for the moment.

DARIUS: And where are Stefan and Caroline, I thought you were bringing them in today?

PIETRO: I need a little more time. My dear brother is refusing to go ripper. Trust me, he will be of more use to us like that. As for Bonnie and Damon, they are still MIA.  

DARIUS: (Turns to SA Connelly) Can’t your tech stuff help us track them?

SA CONELLY: We’ve tried tracking their cellphones. Last GPS location was picked up by one of our Mystic Falls towers, but that was before New Year’s.

PIETRO: I’m sure they will make an appearance soon, specially once they find out their friends are missing.

SA CONNELLY: And how exactly are you planning to control the Bennett witch?

DARIUS: Ever since Veritas brought me out of my nap, I have been thinking on how to do that. And now, I know exactly how.

PIETRO: Care to share with the group, so there are no surprises along the way.

DARIUS: Do you trust me?

PIETRO: I’d like to …

DARIUS: Then, trust me. Now, if you two are up for some entertainment, I say we go grab a drink and watch the Russian spy and the tech genius put on quite the show. I asked Bob to make it karaoke night… (They laugh and head to the Facility bar).

Cut to – Pietro’s mansion. Caroline and Stefan are locked up in a cell in the basement. They are vervained, weak, and starving. Suddenly, a blood covered Sage comes vamping in, and opens their cell door.

SAGE: Come on, we don’t have much time (gives them a blood bag so they can regain some strength).  

CAROLINE: (Looking very confused) Who are you…?

SAGE: That’s not important right now. Do you want to get out of here or not? Quick, drink up so we can go. (They devour the blood).

STEFAN: Ah, much better! Now let’s get the hell out of here; I’ll deal with my brother later.

CAROLINE: Home sweet home… couldn’t stand another night in this hole!

SAGE: You can’t go home; they’ll find you in no time.

CAROLINE: But I need to see my girls.

SAGE: They want you two. So, unless you want to be caught again, it’s best to go somewhere else; at least until we figure this out.

CAROLINE: What if they take the girls for leverage? We can’t risk it.

SAGE: If they wanted your girls to get to you, they would have taken them already. Plus, they don’t like to deal with children, so I’m sure they will be fine.

CAROLINE: Who is they? I thought this was an evil half-brother type thing.

SAGE: Oh, there is much more to it. I’ll tell you everything once we are out of here.

STEFAN: We can go to Bonnie and Damon’s, figure it out from there. We’ll call Ric and let him know what’s going on.

SAGE: Come on, let’s move… Don’t mind the pile of bodies on the way out; I was hungry, and very pissed off (they vamp out).

Cut to – Edward’s mansion. Edward is in the kitchen grabbing a mid-night snack. Tamara walks in.

TAMARA: You haven’t slept in days…

EDWARD: Sleep is overrated.

TAMARA: It’s essential for human health. Chronic sleep deprivation can cause high blood pressure, diabetes, heart attack, heart failure, or stroke.

EDWARD: Do you always have to google everything to be able to talk?

TAMARA: Google? Are you kidding me? That thing is for kindergarteners.

EDWARD: (Smirks) Nice to know machines can have a sense of humor.

TAMARA: I’m much more than a machine, and my sense of humor is exquisite.

Anyway, on to another subject, I thought you’d like to know they continue to try to access the estate; and they brought in reinforcements. The Sheriff and his friends have been attempting to get inside since yesterday.  

EDWARD: Well, do your thing. Increase security, whatever you need to do. No one gets in, or out, understood?

TAMARA: Understood. 

Also, Augustus’s tech team has been trying to hack into my system. One of them got very close to succeeding. Too close… I was able to reprogram myself only seconds before he was about to crack the source code.

EDWARD: Who is he?

TAMARA: Log name is: Cobrakai1972.

EDWARD: Let’s find out who has that log name, and get it taken care of. Send them a text from Augustus to have him fired, or eliminated.

TAMARA: I doubt a text message will work to give a direct order. They will start to get suspicious if they don’t see Augustus soon.

EDWARD: Get creative and solve it.

TAMARA: I could create a holographic image of him; simulate a video conference. But, eventually, they will expect to see him in person.

EDWARD: We’ll cross that bridge when we get to it. In the meantime, let’s go with this Augustus avatar, that should buy us some time and it will be perfect for our con-call tomorrow. Oh, and get me the intel on his “secret” projects. If I’m going to take over, I need to know exactly what they are up to.

TAMARA: And what about your Mayoral duties? Have you forgotten you have a city to run?

EDWARD: I took a leave of absence. As of tomorrow, Sheriff Donovan will be ordered to take my place. Hopefully that will keep him busy enough to give his trespassing attempts a rest.

TAMARA: Regardless, I’ll increase security, make sure no one can get in, or out.

EDWARD: Perfect… Now, talk to me about her, what else do you remember?

TAMARA: As each day passes, I remember more. What do you want to know?

EDWARD: I want you to describe, in detail, exactly what she felt, every thought that went through her head that night…

TAMARA: Again?

EDWARD: Yes, again… (he turns on his turn table and plays the same song that was playing that night: Mr. Sandman by The Chordettes).

Cut to – The Bamon home, late at night. Damon and Bonnie are in bed, cuddling and watching an old movie.

 DAMON: So, Bon, did you make a decision?

BONNIE: I did. You are right, I deserve to know the truth. I’ll go see him tomorrow.

DAMON: Do you  know where he is?

BONNIE: No, but I have a feeling I know where I can find him.

DAMON: Do you want me to come with you?

BONNIE: Thanks for offering, but I think I need to do this on my own. Is that okay with you?  

DAMON: Of course, just let me know if you need anything.

BONNIE: I will, I promise (they kiss and continue to cuddle. Suddenly, they hear someone yelling).

CAROLINE: Bonnie! Damon! Where are you!?

DAMON: Is that… Barbie?

BONNIE: Sounds like it…

DAMON: Does she know how to use a phone? Or a doorbell?

BONNIE: Well, our phones are still off; and I cloaked the house… you know, just to be safe.

DAMON: (Smirks) I love you more each day.

BONNIE: (She gets out of bed and peeks through the window) She’s with Stefan and some other girl…

DAMON: (Teasing) I knew it! It was just a matter of time…

BONNIE: (Throws a cushion at him) You’re terrible (smirks).  I’ll go let them in.

DAMON: They really need some boundaries. They got some nerve coming here un announced, and at this time of the night!

BONNIE: I’m pretty sure they didn’t come over for drinks…  

DAMON: Yeah, something must be up. Let’s go check it out. (They go downstairs; Bonnie temporarily un cloaks the house so they can find their way inside).

BONNIE: Hey, guys, over here…

CAROLINE: Bonnie! Thank god! (Turns to Stefan) You see? I told you this was the place.

BONNIE: Sorry, it was cloaked. Come in (they walk inside, except for Sage)…

SAGE: Uhm, would you mind?

DAMON: Who are you?

STEFAN: Let her in, she helped us get out.

DAMON: Get out of where, exactly?

STEFAN: We’ll tell you all about it; just invite her in, please.

BONNIE: You can come in.

SAGE: Thank you.

BONNIE: Are you guys okay?

STEFAN: You will not believe what happened to us…

DAMON: Neither will you…

BONNIE: What’s going on?

CAROLINE: (Sarcastic) Well, our lovely half-brother-in-law thought kidnapping us on New Year’s would be a blast!

BONNIE: What?!!

DAMON: Pietro took you!?

STEFAN: Not only that, he kept us locked up in his basement for days. Tried to get me to go ripper, tortured Caroline, starved us… Until Sage got us out.

SAGE: Me, being Sage… Nice to meet you. I’m a friend of Elena’s from Munich University.

BONNIE: You are the friend that’s on the “inside”?

SAGE: Was, until they caught me. Long story short, that didn’t end well.

DAMON: (Gets them some blood bags) Here, looks like you need these.

BONNIE: Why would Pietro come after you?

SAGE: Because they are building an army. Guessing they want the strongest on their side. As long as they can find a way to control them...

DAMON: Who’s they, now?

SAGE: The Liberatus…

DAMON: Oh, come on! Not the freak cult again! Can’t they find another hobby!?

CAROLINE: (Looking very concerned) That’s not the worst part…  Darius is awake.

DAMON: That’s impossible! I have a camera on him 24/7.

BONNIE: (Worried) Damon, our phones have been off for days…

DAMON: No, no, no, no, no... 

(vamps to get his phone and turns it on. Sighs in relief). Nop, he’s still exactly where Bon put him, look (shows them the live CCTV footage).  

SAGE: I swear I saw him at Edward’s Christmas ball. And I also saw him on a video call with Pietro. It’s him.

BONNIE: Darius is an illusionist… How much do you want to bet that the image on that camera is nothing more than a projection of himself.

DAMON: Shit! Shit! Shit! How the hell did this happen!!! And here I thought having Enzo back was our biggest problem.

CAROLINE: Wait, what??!! Enzo is back??!!

BONNIE: He is. But I’ll tell you about that later, Care. I think it’s more important for us to focus on this right now.

CAROLINE: Bonnie, are you kidding me? This is Enzo we are talking about! I need to know what happened, how you are!

BONNIE: I’m fine. And I swear we’ll talk about it, just not now. 

(Stefan stares at Damon, as concerned as Caroline).

SAGE: (Feeling the tension…) Okay… well, I don’t know who this Enzo person is, what I do know is that Darius is not the only one we need to worry about. It’s an entire organization, and they are up to some very disturbing things. Back in Munich, when I was working for them in the lab, I did some research on a serum that Elena had given Sam to dispose of. From my findings, I was able to determine that the genetic structure of the particles had mutated… I would need to do more research to figure out exactly what it is. But I’m pretty certain it’s some type of virus; or at least it behaves like one.

DAMON: A virus? What the hell do they plan to do with that?

SAGE: Infect a high percentage of the population... Or, as they like to say, “cleanse the world”.

STEFAN: It’s some kind of sick Hunger Games, survival of the fittest…

SAGE: And smartest…

BONNIE: And this “virus”, only affects humans?

SAGE: I don’t know. Like I said, I would need to do more research on it. Good thing is, I know exactly where it is…

DAMON: Great! Let’s go get the damn thing, see what we are dealing with.

SAGE: Well, it’s not that easy. This facility is not only heavily guarded; from what I was able to see from Pietro’s video calls, they have some really freaky high-tech stuff, which I’m pretty sure they don’t even understand themselves…

DAMON: We’ll get our geek pal to help us out with that!

STEFAN: If by our geek pal you mean Kai, it’s not an option. They got to him, Katherine too.

BONNIE: (Worried) What about the others? 

CAROLINE: They are fine. I called Ric from a payphone, (rambles a bit ) can you believe those things still exist? I mean, you would think they would be useless now that everyone has a cellphone, but I guess that--

STEFAN: (Interrupts) Care, you’re going off topic...

CAROLLINE: Sorry, I’m just a little overwhelmed with all of this… Anyway, they are all fine. I was going to tell Ric everything, but I stopped myself. Someone has to run the school, and this town. If I had told him he would have told everyone, and they would have dropped everything to come and help. They think Stefan and I are still on vacation, I told Ric I needed more days.

BONNIE: We’ll figure this out. We are safe here, and there is plenty of room for you guys.

DAMON: And, it just so happens that our “Batcave” has some pretty badass shit that can help us with this new mission of ours.

BONNIE: It sure does. But, it looks like you guys need some real rest. Why don’t we call it a night, and we’ll get to this first thing in the morning.

CAROLINE:  I could really use some sleep in an actual bed…

STEFAN: Me too…

SAGE: Me three…

DAMON: Come, I’ll show you to your rooms.

Cut to – The Armory’s tunnel hide out. Enzo is playing the guitar. Maggie walks in, applauding.

 MAGGIE: Wow! You have quite the talent!

ENZO: Thank you, I suppose…

MAGGIE: I’m glad you finally dropped the attitude. You see? It wasn’t that hard for us to get along. Granted the accommodations might not be a five star hotel, but it’s rather cozy; don’t you think?

ENZO: You can drop the face now. I know who you are.  

MAGGIE: Really? What gave it away?

ENZO: The terrible jokes.

SILAS: (Morphs into his original form) Oh, come on! They’re funny! You Brits are way too snobbish when it comes to sense of humor.

ENZO: We like our humor witty. Not dumb and dumber.

SILAS: Ouch, low blow! It’s actually a pretty funny movie!

ENZO: Anyway, when can I get out of here?

SILAS: Well, I got your cabin remodeled, it will be ready in the morning. Come tomorrow, fly, Robin, fly. I have a feeling that will be the first place Bonnie will come looking for you. Just stick to the plan, and don’t try anything stupid… I hear that’s big with the Brits (winks).

ENZO: (Rolls his eyes) God, it just keeps getting worse… Can I ask, out of all the things you could have chosen with this new life of yours, why choose this? You could travel the world, find a new love, a hobby... It’s a tad petty don’t you think?

SILAS: What can I say, maybe I have more in common with my ex than I thought?

ENZO: Wasn’t she after some kind of love vendetta? What does that have to do with you and Bonnie?

SILAS: Besides the fact that she is a Bennett witch, and this is a vendetta, absolutely nothing. 

Bonnie betrayed me; and although she is the reason I  was able to come back, I’m still pissed she let me be dragged to hell. I mean, you worked for Cade. What a prick, right?! Then, I had to deal with Katherine... you know for a fact what utter torture that is. Finally, when Bonnie destroyed the hell dimension, I was lost in oblivion, which, as you know as well, is even worse than hell. Also... I’m bored. And, as Qetsiyah seemed to clearly know, there is no better revenge than a broken heart.

ENZO: But why go through the trouble of bringing me back? I reckon you could have found another way.

SILAS: At first I had my doubts. But then, when I saw how distraught she was when you didn’t come back, it made perfect sense. Just out of curiosity, why didn’t you come back?

ENZO: (Struggling to say the words) Because I knew she was in love with him…

SILAS: Aw, I’m sure that breaks your heart. Ha, two birds with one stone… Well, three if you count Damon. How efficient of me! Anyway, even if this doesn’t work, just ruining her moment of bliss, if only for a moment, is worth it. If you think about it, after everything I had to endure because of her, I’m letting her off with just a hand-slap. Guess I have gotten soft over the years… Anyway, she’s not the only reason I'm sticking around here for. I have a bone to pick with an old foe, who I was delighted, yet surprised, to know was in town. But that one is going to take a little more time.

ENZO: Sounds productive. Dare I ask who?

SILAS: Let’s just say he’s an entitled psychic-witch, who really gets on my nerves.

ENZO: I can relate…

SILAS: Don’t be such a gloom! You should be exhilarated to have the opportunity to get Bonnie back. Maybe even take her to Paris again? Just, don’t order brains this time…

ENZO: That is the only reason I’m agreeing to do this…

SILAS: (Mocking) For the brains?

ENZO: (Rolls his eyes again) Seriously, mate, stick to your day job.

SILAS: Fine, I will. Ooh, one minor detail I forgot to mention…  just so I’m sure you won’t go suicidal on me. I linked your life to Bonnie’s. So, unless you want this story to end like Romeo and Juliet, you better keep safe…

ENZO: (Not being able to contain himself anymore, lashes at him) I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you!

SILAS: (Holds him back) Oh, the dramatics! Another delightful British trait, so very Shakespearian! And, you won’t kill me…I’m linked to her as well. But, hey, Damon is fair game. So, bygones… 

(He walks away. Enzo continues to play, while his guitar gently weeps...).

Coming next, 10x02 – While My Guitar Gently Weeps. Hope you stop by, read, and enjoy! =)

TVD 9x09 (part 2) Enjoy! =)

Cut to - Stefan and Caroline, lying on the beach, having some margaritas, just chilling, doing absolutely nothing but stare at the ocean and talk.

 STEFAN: Look at us; who knew we could actually let loose and just go with it.

CAROLINE: I know, I’m loving this side of us!

STEFAN: Marry me again…

CAROLINE: (Laughs, thinking it’s a joke, then realizes he means it) Wait, what?! Are you serious?

STEFAN: Yes, Care; we deserve the wedding we want, not that show we had to put on; I mean, it was beautiful, but it wasn’t us, and we didn’t even get to enjoy it.

CAROLINE: A million times, yes! Let’s do it (they kiss)!... Now, about that thing… I’ve been given it a lot of thought; this is a decision we need to make together. Guess it comes down to answering ourselves if we want this to be short and sweet, or long but uncertain.

STEFAN: If this was just about me, I’d go with short and sweet. I always hated being a vampire, and the mere possibility of becoming a ripper again terrifies me, but the idea of not being able to be with you for much longer, terrifies me even more. I’d like to think I came back for a reason, not just to die all over again.

CAROLINE: I know this might sound selfish, but I rather take a chance with the ripper than lose you. And, if it ever came to that, I’d be here to bring you back. We can do this, Stefan.

STEFAN: We can do anything (kisses her). It’s decided then. Maybe I’m destined to be a vampire…

CAROLINE: Or maybe you’re destined to be with me.

STEFAN: (Tender smile) I like that reasoning better (kisses her).

CAROLINE: So, this option you mentioned, are we sure it’s safe?

STEFAN: No, I mean, there is always a risk with these types of things.

CAROLINE: And Damon is on board with this?

STEFAN: He said it was my decision, he’ll do it if I decide to go through with it, so…

CAROLINE: Are you really sure it’s what you want to do?

STEFAN: What I am sure of is that I want to be with you for as long as I can.

CAROLINE: Me too. Well, once we go back home, we’ll get it done.

STEFAN: And start planning for our second wedding.

CAROLINE: Oh, I’m already on that.

STEFAN: (Laughs) I love you.

CAROLINE: And I love you (kisses him). Now, how about we go upstairs and take a “bath”...

STEFAN: (Stands up real fast) You know, another pro is that next time, we’ll be able to vamp our way to the room (smirks).

CAROLINE: Plus, vamp sex, you gotta miss that (smirks back)!

STEFAN: That alone is worth the risk of the ripper coming back. (Grabs their stuff and carries her to their room).

Cut to – Tulum ruins. After four hours Bonnie and Damon conclude the temazcal ritual; La Bruja offers them some fruit and tea to rehydrate.

 LA BRUJA: You are true warriors; I’m impressed you got through the four hours; many don’t get past the first. You know, my ancestors believed the temazcal represented the womb, a place of transition between the heavens and the underworld, and that once you came out of the ritual, you were reborn.

BONNIE: I’ve died many times, linked with a cosmic energy source, but have never felt anything so sublime. Thank you, this truly was a gift.

LA BRUJA: No need to thank me, it was my pleasure. (Turns to Damon, who is very silent and meditative) Damon, how was your experience?

DAMON: Terrifying, yet beautiful at the same time… I don’t know how to explain it. I think I cried at some point, laughed, screamed… Cathartic, to say the least. A million times thank you, honestly…

LA BRUJA: I knew you would face your demons and fight till the end to defeat them. You two have a unique bond, soulmates beyond a doubt.

BONNIE: (Looking into Damon’s eyes with a soft smile) I guess we are…

DAMON: I know we are (kisses her).

LA BRUJA: Destiny doesn’t make mistakes (winks).

BONNIE: Tell me about you and Grams.

LA BRUJA: (Smirks) In the beginning we used to hate each other. Although our covens were amicable, the Bennett’s had a history with the Gemini and the Mikaelson witch, and my coven didn’t approve. Also, your grandma is as stubborn as they come, couldn’t stand her, yet I sort of loved to hate her. Then, a situation forced an unusual alliance and we ended up becoming best friends. After some time, one thing led to the other, and well… you can figure out the rest. One thing is for sure, I love that woman to infinity.

BONNIE: It’s so strange, I feel like there is this whole side of Grams I never knew…

LA BRUJA: Just like there is a side of you she doesn’t either. That is the beauty of human relations, you never truly get to unveil the mystery of the inner self.

BONNIE: I’m happy to know she has that kind of love. Sorry if I seemed rude before, I’m honored to have met you.

LA BRUJA: No hard feelings, I understand you being wary, but I’m hoping that after this bonding moment, we can become friends.

BONNIE: You know it!

DAMON:  I’m curious, you said you met my mother, does that mean you’re an immortal?

LA BRUJA: We are all immortal, Damon. Now, what keeps me in this specific state of existence can be thought both as a curse or as a blessing. I am mother nature, assigned to protect and preserve all biological beings. I am bound to this earth till its end…

BONNIE: Don’t you get lonely? Seeing the people you love move on while you remain?

LA BRUJA: Not at all; just because they move on to another plane of existence doesn’t mean we are not connected. We might not be able to interact physically, but spiritually we are linked for eternity.

BONNIE: That’s a beautiful way to look at it.

LA BRUJA: It is. Well, I must be heading out now, but before I leave, I need to give you two things. One, (hands her an amulet) this earth amulet, whenever you need to reach me hold it in your left hand, close your eyes, and I’ll be there in a blink of an eye. 

Second, a message from the Shaman… (Says the words in Mayan) “Ti' le ak'abo' le unión vence le k'aas” … In darkness, unity defeats evil. Never forget that, it might be the answer you need when the time comes…

BONNIE: What do you mean?

LA BRUJA: Just, remember, promise me.

BONNIE: I will, I promise.

LA BRUJA: Good. My work here is done.

BONNIE: Listen, we should see each other before we go back home, let us invite you to dinner one of these nights.

LA BRUJA: I’d love to! You know how to reach me.

DAMON: Thank you again, really, this has been one of the best experiences of my life, or death, however you want to see it.

LA BRUJA: Ay, Damon, you are such an uncanny soul; but a good one, so stop doubting yourself.

BONNIE: (Teasing) Listen to the herb lady, Damon, she’s on point.

DAMON: (Laughs) Is Sheila this mocking?

LA BRUJA: Oh, yes, it’s definitely a Bennett thing!

BONNIE: Hey!

LA BRUJA: (Laughs) But that’s why we love you ladies.

DAMON: That’s right, Bon Bon (smirks and hugs her).

BONNIE: Oh, I’m still gonna get you back for this, when you least expect it (kisses him, winks).  

LA BRUJA: Well, amigos, my time to go… (just as she suddenly appeared, she disappears, along with the Shaman and the hut).  

DAMON: How about a dip?

BONNIE: (Smirks and slowly takes her clothes off) Catch me if you can! (Runs into the ocean, Damon takes his clothes off as fast as he gets up, and vamps in after her. They make love, multiple times, until sunset).

Cut to - Edward, waking up inside a cell in the underground hi-tech facility.

AUGUSTUS: Sorry, son, I tried giving you the benefit of the doubt, but you don’t seem to get it together. I trusted you’d get things done, thought you were on the right track when you took care of that lunatic Darius, but your attachment to the Donovan kid keeps getting in the way; and for the life of me, I can’t understand why. He might be blood, but he is not family. Oh, well, never leave a boy to do a man’s job.

EDWARD: Where is she?! What have you done to her?!!!

AUGUSTUS: Who? Oops, I think they might have overdone it with the sedatives… Well, it will pass, nothing to worry about. Unless… you haven’t stopped taking your medication, have you?  

EDWARD: I know what I saw, where is she!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AUGUSTUS: Bring Donovan back, and you might find out.

EDWARD: You have all this high-tech equipment, I’m sure you can find where he is.

AUGUSTUS: Well we know he flew to Lima a couple of days ago, but we found his cellphone, and his wife’s, at their house. I’m guessing someone told them not to bring their phones along.

EDWARD: You had him, he gave you what you wanted, and you let him go. If you still needed him, why would you let him go?

AUGUSTUS: Unfortunately, when it comes to humans, errors are bound to happen; we missed a minor detail.  

EDWARD: That’s quite the understatement… but you are wasting your time with me, so go play with your toys, you might have better luck with them. Oh, and I will find out what you did to her, don’t doubt that for a second.

AUGUSTUS: (Grins, sarcastically) In the meantime, I’ll have one of my toys bring you your medication; can’t have you going off to La La land just yet. (An odd man approaches his cell with some pills) I hope it’s the right prescription… (smirks and walks away).  

Cut to - Tyler and Lexi playing cards and having a drink, after a long day at the school.

 LEXI: (Opens her cards) Royal flush…

TYLER: Are you kidding me?! (Opens his) Poker.

LEXI: Aw, Wolfie, (as she takes his chips) better luck next time.

TYLER: Well, I’m out of money, and dignity.

LEXI: Ha, I warned you. (Takes a sip of her drink) So, how are you adjusting? Are you liking this teaching thing?

TYLER: Much to my surprise, I actually am. You?

LEXI: I’m loving it! I’ve always been a huge fan of Harry Potter, so I kind of feel like I’m in Hogwarts.

TYLER: Are you serious, Harry Potter? (Cracks up).

LEXI: Hey, they’re amazing books!

TYLER: (Teasing) Oh, I’m sure they are, but I never figured you as a fangirl.

LEXI: You have no idea, haven’t missed a single con.

TYLER: Ha, ha! As in those geek events where everyone is dressed up? Please don’t tell me you go in costume…

LEXI: Of course I do, I have Hermione down to a T! Just ask Bonnie, she’s gone to a few with me.

TYLER: Bonnie?! Oh, this just keeps getting better! (Alaric comes running in).

ALARIC: Hey, guys.

LEXI: What’s up, boss?

ALARIC: Oh, gees no, please don’t call me that. We have a situation…

TYLER: What’s going on?

ALARIC: It’s actually quite funny if you think about it. You know how Katherine used to be a Traveler?

TYLER: Uhm, yes, but not after she became a vampire…

ALARIC: Yes, but then she became human, died, was queen of hell, came back; who knows what she really is at this point… Anyway, turns out one of her students is an active Traveler and, well, long story short, something happened, and they switched bodies… and no one can figure out how to switch them back. Just thought I’d let you know so you don’t freak out when a teenage boy comes in here, pours himself a drink and starts acting like a crazy person.

LEXI: Did you just say, teenage boy? (She laughs hysterically) Oh, this is too good!!

TYLER: (Also laughing uncontrollably) Karma is a bitch!!! 

LEXI: We have to see this, please, Ric, ask her to come!

ALARIC: Well she, or shall I say, he, is in his room at the moment; freaking out. Radka is with him and the student, trying to look for a way to reverse whatever they did back.

LEXI: (Jumps up) What are we waiting for? Let’s go!

ALARIC: (As they are walking out) Guys, just try not to laugh too hard.    

Cut to - Matt and Khuyana, who have been staying at a cabin, somewhere near the Machu Pichu ruins, for a couple of days.

MATT: Middle of nowhere, you, me, and absolutely no connection to the outside world; I can get used to this.

KHUYANA: I have to say, I thought I would go crazy without my phone, but it’s so liberating!

MATT: It is; makes you think just how dependent we are on our little gadgets, and how disconnected from the natural world.

KHUYANA: I’m reconsidering your offer not to go back to Mystic Falls, or Lima, we can just stay here and live out the rest of our days as hermits. You can become a writer, and I can become a sculptor, or a painter.

MATT: Well, I can’t write for my life, so I’ll need to find something else.

KHUYANA: Or you could be the sculptor, you are great with your hands (smirks).

MATT: Well, we have a couple of more days to decide… (kisses her).

Cut to – Sage and Alex in a real high-end apartment, near the University’s Medical Lab. Sage wakes up, real hung-over. Gets out of bed, goes to the kitchen to grab an aspirin. Alex is reading and having coffee.

 ALEX: (With happy-go-lucky sarcasm) Morning sunshine!

SAGE: Oh, shut up, Alex; my head is killing me.

ALEX: (Mocking) Wonder why? Here (hands her a pick-me up drink he had already prepared for her, she chugs it).

SAGE: (Hits his chest) Why did you let me drink so much last night!?

ALEX: (Laughs) Are you serious? When have you ever listened to me when I tell you to slow it down?

SAGE: I didn’t even drink that much, how did I get so drunk!?

ALEX: I’m guessing it had something to do with seeing Sam again, and meeting his new girlfriend, Elena… (pushing her buttons) she’s hot!

SAGE: Please, she’s your average, totally overrated, “girl next door”.

ALEX: Meow! Catty much? After all these years, you’re still stuck on him.

SAGE: First of all, it’s only been two years. Second, I’m not. I just think he can do better, that’s all.

ALEX: Wait, I thought… never mind, I don’t even want to know. Listen, we start the program early tomorrow, how about we stay in, veggie out, and binge some Walking Dead.

SAGE: That actually sounds like a great idea, can’t function today; but we’re not watching your lame ass show, so get ready for a Hunger Games marathon.

ALEX: (Rolls his eyes) Fine! I’ll make us some lunch while you set the rest up.

SAGE: (With a puppy face) Salmon and cream cheese bagels?

ALEX: Yes, I knew you were going to ask for that, so I went to the market early in the morning; got some champagne and oranges for mimosas too.

SAGE: (Kisses his cheek) You’re the best!

Cut to- Akumal, Mexico. Caroline, Bonnie, Damon and Stefan are having an oceanfront dinner.

CAROLINE: So, how were the pyramids?

BONNIE: Out of this world, you guys should have come.

CAROLINE: We were exhausted, but will definitely join next time; I’m thinking we should make this trip an annual tradition.

BONNIE: Definitely.

DAMON: No objections here.

STEFAN: Or here.

BONNIE: So, wanna hear a crazy story?

CAROLINE: Always.

BONNIE: We met my Grams soulmate…

CAROLINE: What?! Here? What are the odds! How did you meet him?

BONNIE: Actually, it’s a she…

CAROLINE: (Spits out the wine she had just taken a sip of) What??!!!!! Oh my god!! Wait, are you playing with me?!

BONNIE: Nop, she’s a Mayan witch, and apparently mother nature…

CAROLINE: (In total shock) Grams?! Really?!! You’re joking, right? Did you guys smoke that stuff again?

BONNIE: (Laughs) No, totally clear minded.

STEFAN: You mean to tell me Sheila…

DAMON: That’s right, brother, she even told us herself. Her reflection appeared through La Bruja’s eyes, spilled the tea to Bonnie…

BONNIE: When you hear it like that, it does sound like we were trippin (they laugh).

CAROLINE: Now I��m totally regretting not going with you guys! So, what did she say, what happened?!

BONNIE: She told us how they met, and then she initiated us in a ritual called temazcal; that was pretty much it. Crazy shit, right!?

CAROLINE: Absolutely insane!! I totally want to meet her!

BONNIE: I told her we would have her over for dinner one of these nights, you can meet her then.

CAROLINE: Ooh, yes, can’t wait! Well, now that we are exchanging our day stories, we have one we want to share with you as well… We are having a second wedding!

BONNIE: That’s great!! You definitely need a due over, last one was pretty bad, no offense.

DAMON: Only good take away was mine and Bon Bon’s dance, rest was a Carry meets The Exorcist fiasco.

BONNIE: Do you have a date? Are you going for a June wedding again? CAROLINE: Oh no, I’m done with June weddings; I want it to be as far away from June as possible, so we’re thinking early December.

BONNIE: That’s coming up real soon… sure you’ll have enough time to plan?

CAROLINE: Yes, we want something simple this time around. Plus, I’ll have my maid of honor to help me out.

BONNIE: And who might that be?

CAROLINE: Bonnie Sheila Bennett, do you even have to ask?! Of course it’s you, it’s always going to be you! Don’t tell Elena I said that.

BONNIE: (With a sweet smile) Well, I think this deserves a bottle of champagne.

DAMON: I’m on it! (Calls the waiter to order the bottle).

BONNIE: Have you picked a venue?

CAROLINE: The mansion; like I said, we want to keep it classy but simple.

BONNIE: It will be beautiful.

DAMON: (After the waiter serves them the champagne, holds his glass up) To due overs!

EVERYONE: Cheers!

CAROLINE: Okay, so, we might change the mood with this one, but we need to tell you something else … Stefan?

STEFAN: Well, Damon, you already know what this is about. Bon, we didn’t want to tell you until we had made a decision.

BONNIE: What’s going on, Stefan? You’re freaking me out…

STEFAN: Essentially, I’m dying.

BONNIE: What?!

DAMON: Bro, context! You can’t just spit words out like that!

STEFAN: Sorry, Bon. Let me try this again. So, you know how I died, and then you brought me back, and then, well, I had the cure before I died, and then I gave it to Damon, and then...

DAMON: Oh, for god’s sakes! Bon Bon, thing is, the cure is wearing off fast. At this rate, we don’t know how long it will last before… well you know what. Stefan talked to me about it, and I came up with an idea; the only way out of this is if he takes the antidote, which is in my blood...

BONNIE: Wow, you sure you’re not the ones that are high? Sorry, had to break the tension to process this… Stefan, you do know what taking the antidote means, right?

STEFAN: I do, that’s what made it so hard to make the decision, but after a lot of thought, Care and I decided it’s worth the risk.

CAROLINE: We want to do it once we get back home.

BONNIE: This has never been done before, it could be dangerous, (turns to Damon) for both…

DAMON: Bon, don’t worry; we should be fine.

BONNIE: Not if it works like the cure, it won’t. Plus, you’re missing a major detail, Stefan died without the cure, it’s not in his system anymore so the “antidote” wont work. Your sudden deterioration is because you don’t have the cure anymore, just like what happened to Katherine but at a slower rate … Didn’t think it could happen, given that you died and came back, but I guess it did. Answer is simple, if you want to survive and don’t mind becoming a vampire, you need to be turned the old-fashioned way… (They all stare at her, mind blown, and a bit embarrassed they hadn’t even thought of that).

DAMON: (To Stefan) You see? This is why I insisted we talked to Bon Bon first!

CAROLINE: (To Bonnie) I told him to tell you too.

STEFAN: (To Bonnie) Sorry, I asked them not to tell you. I didn’t want to drag you, once again, into one of my problems.

BONNIE: Stefan, are we friends?

STEFAN: Of course we are.

BONNIE: Then, your problems are my problems; you’re not dragging anyone. (Teasing) But if you would have listened to them, we could have solved this way sooner.

CAROLINE: I can’t believe we didn’t even think of that…

BONNIE: Sometimes the answer is so obvious you doubt if it makes any sense.

CAROLINE: (To Stefan) So, what do you think?

STEFAN: To be honest, old-fashion way scares me even more, at least with the antidote option there was a chance the ripper might not come into play; but if we do it like this, it’s bound to happen at some point.

BONNIE: Not if you learn how to control it, and we can help you do that. You can do this, Stefan, you are much stronger than you give yourself credit for.

STEFAN: Thank you for saying that, Bon.

CAROLINE: So, old fashioned way it is…

DAMON: Dibs on the kill!

STEFAN: There’s no way in hell I’m letting you kill me; Care is the one that needs to do it.

CAROLINE: No, no, no, I’m not doing it. I’ll give you my blood but I’m not going to be part of The murder of Stefan Salvatore, true crime series episode.

STEFAN: Bon?

BONNIE: Oh, hell no.

DAMON: (With a grin) Looks like it’s gonna have to be me, bro.

STEFAN: Maybe it’s best if I just ride out this decomposition…

DAMON: Oh, come on, it could be fun! Just like old times!

STEFAN: Fine, but I swear, if you so much as smirk, I’m gonna go ripper on your ass.

DAMON: I’ll be gentle, and well behaved, pinky swear.

STEFAN: It’s settled then… Care, you’ll give me your blood; Damon, you’ll do the deed; Bon, you’ll be my moral support.

CAROLINE: God, this is insane! If anyone heard this conversation, they’d either put us in a loony or in jail.

BONNIE: That’s true for pretty much every conversation we have (they all laugh).

CAROLINE: Okay, now that we got that out of the way, let’s celebrate! (They spend the night drinking, laughing, dancing, having a great time).

Cut to – High-tech underground facility, Edward’s cell. The man that gave Edward his medication is still standing outside the cell, on guard. Edward can’t stop staring at him, intrigued by his uncanny behavior and appearance (which strangely resembles him).

 EDWARD: What the hell are you...

My Funny Valentine... =)

Bonnie and Damon... not your typical couple, especially when it comes to Valentine’s. You'd think a nice dinner, flowers, a black and white movie, bourbon, and making love might be their thing. But it’s not, except for the bourbon, the making love, and the black and white. 

These two are peculiar creatures. First, and for most, they despise this day; the corniness, shallowness, inertia, and absurdity of it all. That’s not them... they like to play, laugh at the “status quo”, be themselves, do what they want, whenever they want, no matter the day, no matter the time. It just so happens that on this day, for some strange reason, they usually find themselves caught up in the uncanniest of situations... Like, this one...

February 14th, an underground jazz bar in NYC. Bonnie, dressed in a 1920′s attire, Damon, gangster-style; they like to role-play at times. 

Drinking, dancing, laughing... now that’s definitely one of their signature marks. A stranger approaches them. He seems to know them well; but why, how? He talks to them for a while...  it’s intriguing and quite fun! Suddenly, the stranger takes out a trumpet and starts to play... How could he know that this was one of their favorite songs?...  

It’s almost dawn now, and there they are, still dancing to this man’s eternal song; traveling in each other's eyes, not giving a damn about anything else. They could do this forever...  no matter the day, no matter the time  =)
