Damon POV

I didn't want to help.

Hell I just wanted to stay at home and relax with bourbon and read call of the wild for the hundredth time.

But no.

Baby witch needed a lesson on vampire anatomy for her latest kill Klaus spell.

Stefan was busy trying not to rip anyone's throat out, Caroline was still too young and naïve to help, so that left me.

Just fantastic.

I shoved my hands in my pocket as I walked up the front steps of the Gilbert household. This was the base of operations for now while Stefan is detoxing at the boarding house. I rapped the back of my knuckles on the door and listened. There were hush voices coming from inside, then some footsteps. I started impatiently rolling on the balls of my feet to the tips of my toes.

The door swung open, revealing Elena holding the door handle and Jeremy and Bonnie standing behind her. Elena gave me a polite little smile and baby witch and baby Gilbert just glared distastefully. I just grinned mockingly at them then leered at Elena half heatedly. I had no intentions of putting Stefan through more crap than he's already going through. So the 'stealing his girl' plan was put on hold until Stefan's back to his normal, broody, squirrel eating self.

"Damon, come in" Elena said while stepping out of the way of the door.

I gave her a little nod and went to the living area. I plopped on the couch and picked up a pillow that was previously in my current spot. Hugging the defenseless pillow to my chest, I looked up to the Stefan groupies.

"Sooo" I said dragging it out "what can I do you for?" I asked while giving a sly smile. Bonnie rolled her eyes and Elena sat down on the other couch, looking expectantly up at Bonnie.

"I need to know some things about vampires-" I cut Bonnie off.

"Why? I mean you know as much about this as I do. It's been a learn as you go experience for me. I didn't exactly get a handbook for this crap." I said while sitting up. She nodded.

"That's what I figured. But I need to know about your healing abilities. Does anything slow down the healing process?" She asked, while no longer glaring at me, she was giving me a serious look.

"As far as I know, only wood and vervain slow healing down. Why?" I asked, returning her serious look.

"Because I found a spell that can immobilize klaus. I just need something to make it more permanent. Would vervain work the best?" She asked as she sat next to Elena.

"Again, as far as I know, yes." I said.

"So. How'll this spell work? Is it immediate or do we have to get Klaus to ingest it?" I asked, leaning forward on my pillow.

"Ingest." She said.

This spell sounded a little sketchy to me. I knew little about magic by hanging around with Emily whenever Katherine wanted 'alone time' with Stefan.

I had a bad feeling about this.

Bonnie got up and vanished into the kitchen, only to return a split second later with a bowl.

"All I need to do is add the vervain..." She took out a vile and poured it in.

"Can I see the spell?" I asked. She handed over the witch cook book and I took a look.

This looked familiar...

I looked at the ingredients needed and it snapped. Emily had used this spell once. It was a powerful spell. She had used it to...

I heard Bonnie come nearly to the end of her Latin chanting.

"Wait- NO!" I said as she finished.

I got of the couch, throwing the pillow at a by standing lamp (on accident- though it was an ugly lamp) I pulled Jeremy on top of the girls and then I became a human shield and spread myself over all of them.

There was a flash of light and a burst of white noise that left my ears ringing. After a few moments, the light subsided and the noise vanished. I fell down on my backside and had trouble recalling anything. I heard a few gasps and then Elena muttering

"oh my god" I looked curiously at her.

"What?" I asked.

The white noise must have messed with my ears for my voice didn't sound like mine at all.

Bonnie got up and dug through her purse that was on the kitchen table. She came back with a compact and opened it. She turned it my way and there was a mirror.

But it wasn't myself looking back at me.

It was a little boy that looked around 5 with messy black hair, blue eyes looking back... Oh god, I thought.

It was me.

"What the-" I said while grabbing it from her.

I heard Jeremy bark out a laugh and I glared at him.

Which just made him laugh even harder.

Once he got his breath back he only had one thing to say;

"Oh God. Damon, your brother is going to kill us."
