Chapter Eleven- The tale of the dead.

"Are you going to invite them inside?" Katherine's voice was low and quiet but I heard her. There was no other sound, except the birds flying over our heads. My mother nodded her head and stepped to the side, before walking inside. Katherine was right on the side of her as they disappeared into the house. Damon turned to me and Bonnie, telling us with his eyes that he was going first inside, just in case something happened. Me and Bonnie both nodded our heads and he walked ahead of us.

He disappeared into the house and Bonnie went next. She went into the house.

I took a deep breath before going into the house. Now that my mother was sober and could actually hold a sentence without falling over, I could probably ask her who turned her. With me meeting the vampire that I obsessed over for awhile and with Katherine here. I could ask her, but maybe later after everything was out and clear.

I walked into the house and up the steps, looking around my surroundings of the woods, one last time before stepping into my house and closing the door behind me.

The living room was cast in black, it was dark, only three candles were placed in sections of the room so the humans like me and Bonnie could see. Everyone else was a vampire.

I sat down on the red couch that Bonnie was sitting on. Her eyes were closed and she continued to chant to herself, blood was dripping from her nose. She wiped it away and continued to chant. I couldn't tell what she was talking about or saying but it was freaking me out.

I turned towards Damon, who was sitting in my favorite chair. Katherine was on the other couch, laying down, her arms were crossed over her stomach and she was laying there. Her holes for eyes were so dark that I wasn't sure if she had closed her eyes or had opened them.

I heard my mother buzzing about the kitchen, she was humming and singing soft tones to herself. I wondered what she was singing. I never heard her sing before.

She walked back into the dark living room, holding three wine glasses. She handed one to Damon and he eyeballed her before taking the drink, sniffing it before taking a sip of the drink. My mother smiled before placing hers on the nearby table beside her and handing one to Katherine. She took the drink and sat up as best as she could, holding it in her fragile hands. She took a sip, throwing the taste around in her mouth before she gulped it down. Damon and my mother did the same. The drinks clinking against the glassware as they did so.

"Now, tell me what you're doing here, Katherine?" Damon's voice was cold and deep and so hard.

I never heard him like that before.

Katherine was sitting up straight now with the help of my mother. She was rolling her head around and sighing.

"I'm enjoying family. Isobel is the mother of my soul." I couldn't tell that she was looking at me but I just knew. She coughed and than crossed her arms over her lap, holding her head up straight. "I'm not here to start a fight. I just want to get everything out. I've been out for three days thanks to Lucy. She finally found the power to awaken me, even when I didn't want her too."

Bonnie stopped chanting and looked at me and than at Katherine.

So Lucy, was alive.

I knew it.

"Don't mention her name. She's dead." Bonnie's voice was cold.

Katherine shook her head.

"She's dead to you because she didn't want to be apart of the sisters like you, Lea, and Bree. Shelia wanted you guys to be free. She didn't want you combining your powers together because then only one of you has the power. It explains it in Shelia's journal before she died. It's how Lucy helped me. I went to see her the night that Damon killed me. I told her to find my soul and make me anew. So I wouldn't have to deal with what happened back then. I didn't know that my soul counter part would come out like me though."

Katherine forced a smile on her face. She licked her lips and turned her head, turning to face Damon. He wasn't looking at her but at me. His blue eyes were studying me.

"So, Katherine she's your soul? That's new. I never heard of that lie." Damon turned his eyes from me and settled on her.

I looked at my mother. She was smirking the entire time, playing with her nails.

"One reason I chose you Damon, besides you're good looks was because you don't lie. I don't lie either. It's way I've been called a bitch back in my day. Now, if you want to talk to Lucy. I can get her for you. She'll tell you what she did. I asked her too because I didn't want to redo my past mistakes. I was a fool thinking that I could have two lovers at my arm. I chose you, Damon and your brother. But I realized that I wanted you more. But it wasn't enough, I wanted to rebel against you. I like when you're mad. The mad sex is the good sex." Katherine broke and slapped her hand to her chest, she began to cough and my mother stood up instantly. She was up and running into the kitchen, a blur in front of my eyes passing right back in front of me as she handed Katherine a cup of blood. Katherine took the blood and drowned it down, gulping it placed the cup down with her other cup and smiled once again. I realized there was blood on her dress from when she was drinking in a rush. She must have been really hungry.

"That doesn't explain why you couldn't just let me go. You are the reason why I am this monster that I am. You changed me like a fucking puppet so don't tell me that you chose me Katherine. I killed you because it was closure for me. So, get healed, drink blood, and go back to fucking dog boy. I've had enough of your shit!" Damon screamed at her and I jumped in my seat. I couldn't believe him. I never heard him so angry before in my entire life. Well I've only been next to him for a short while.

I watched him stand up and he tossed the chair he was sitting in. It landed smack dab into a wall and smashed. Bonnie and I jumped. Katherine and Isobel just sat there.

Damon stormed out of the house and left for outside. I felt my heart break as he left. How could she do this?

I turned to her and looked her dead in her eyes.

"You tell me not to lead them on but here you are, doing this. Hurting them for not apparent reason. Mason attacked me and kissed me because I looked like you. I didn't ask for this. I just want a normal life but I can't because I go to school with a bunch of freaking vampires and werewolves. The guy that I have followed all my human life hates you so automatically hates me. I look like you, Katherine. Don't you think you should have wondered what the fucking hell would happen if they saw me. They would have saw me eventually. You don't think. You think about yourself. I was only made because you wanted a life. Go fuck yourself!" I said my piece. I took a deep breath and stood up, leaving Bonnie behind. I was about ready to walk out of the house as Damon had. With him not in the room, I was afraid. I was worried that Mason, since we weren't in hiding anymore, could find me and snatch me. It was a risk and yet I didn't want to be in the house anymore.

"Don't leave, Elena." I turned towards my mother. She was standing behind me, her hand was raising to touch my cheek. I slapped her hands away. "My daughter, don't do this. I love you but you are apart of Katherine's soul. Don't be this way. We can all talk this out as adults."

I scoffed and rolled my eyes.

"Adults? You want to act like adults. All my life, you've been drunk, talking about your savior. My dad doesn't want nothing to do with me, you sick bitch. I hate you so much. You've known all along have you. You've known that I was her soul and you just let me grow up to be the weird girl that everyone hates. You don't know the shit that I went through. I've been tormented. Vampires have threaten to eat me and werewolves have had tried to rape me. I've been thrown in the dirt and kicked and punched. And yet when I came home, you were never here. You were laying on the couch in your own little world. So suck a dick." I spat at her feet and made my way towards the door.

I reached out with my hand to touch the knob when Katherine was standing in front of me. Her skin didn't look so gray anymore. She looked a little better but I was still pissed.

"Look soul, you may be mad all you want but don't throw this shit around like it's my fault. I did what I had to do. Because I didn't want you having a life like me. Running, choosing, loving, and death. I told you to chose one because you can't love them both. I tried and I ended up dying because I told Mason that I wanted nothing to do with his clingy ways. I told him that, went to Lucy to find my soul and restore it and than I went to Damon. He didn't touch me because I smelled like wolf. He ended up ripping my heart out. So, don't what you will but don't sit here and blame us for this. When Lucy impregnated your mother with my soul. She told Isobel to keep you safe and alive and now that I am back. Things are going to change around here. First things, first..."

Katherine lounged at me and we fell to the floor. She grabbed a hold of my neck and I heard Bonnie scream. Katherine was struggling to look me deep in her eyes and I moved away. She was trying to compel me. I was not going to let that happen. I moved and kicked out with my feet, screaming my head off, hoping that Damon could hear me.

Me and Katherine struggled for a long time before she was ripped from off of me. I looked up and crawled backwards. A shocked expression on my face.

It was not Damon as I had hoped. It was Mason. He was holding a passed out Damon in his hands. Katherine was in his other hand, passed out too.

"I stuck them both with vervain. And now that I have Katherine and her soul. I can do a lot of catching up to do with Katherine and than you Elena." Mason smiled and I stood up, ready to run towards the back when I bumped into a wide chest. I looked up and noticed that it was someone I never seen before. He picked me up by my neck and I looked over where Bonnie and my mother were. They were both being tied up by a big huge woman. My mother was screaming her head off and I could tell that she it was sizzling. Bonnie was passed out cold, blood dripping down the side of my head.

The person that was holding me, lifted me up higher and knocked me out against the head. I tried to stay awake for a little bit, trying to see my surroundings, but I passed out cold.

I wasn't sure what to do with this chapter. And I knew it's been a while before Mason was added in so I put him in this one.

If this was confusing than I'm sorry. I couldn't think of anything so let my hand do the talking.
