Rekindle - Klaus Mikaelson

Chapter 17; Moonstone

Lilly

Jeremy came around the house this morning telling us that Tyler wasn’t a werewolf yet, since he needed to kill someone to break the cure, but Mason Lockwood is, which we already knew, but apparently he was in town to look for a moonstone which is connected to the Aztec curse Vanessa told us about, according to the legend the werewolf part of the curse is sealed with the moonstone, which means that the moonstone is what needs to be used to break the curse.

Jeremy told us that Tyler had the moonstone, but after we went to the Lockwood’s where everyone was setting up for the Masquerade ball it turns out Tyler gave the stone to Mason which wasn’t good, and to make the problem even worse, it turns out that Katherine is with Mason.

So here I was now stood with Damon, Stefan and Bonnie trying to get her to help us out since she was the one who found out that Mason was with the strumpet. “This is as far as I go, what do you want?” Bonnie asked once we were in a quiet place away from prying ears. “A favour” I shrugged. “Like that’s going to happen” She glared at me. “That’s why we brought him” Damon told her pointing at Steffie the goody two shoes.

“I know how you feel about helping us out, but since you’re the one that linked Katherine to Mason, we finally have an opportunity to get the upper hand on the both of them, so just hear us out” Stefan told her. “Pretty please” Damon smirked at her. “I’m listening” She nodded just as Stefs phone started ringing. “I have to fill Elena in on what’s going on, can you both play nice, please?” He asked looking over at me and Damon.

“I guess” Damon mumbled, Stef looked at me raising his eyebrows. “I’m the good girl now, remember” I smirked at him before he walked off.

“Look, all you have to do is touch Mason Lockwood again to see if he gave the Moonstone to Katherine” Damon told her. “My visions don’t work like that, I don’t get to ask questions” Bonnie spoke crossing her arms over her chest. “No, but you can get into his head, find out where he put it. You give him an aneurysm, we’ll do the rest” I shrugged as she looked over at me confused.

“How do you know what I can do?” She asked making me smirk at her. “I know a lot of things Bonnie, pretty impressive isn’t it, popping someones blood vessels over and over again” Bonnie nodded slowly still confused. “I also know it isn’t vampire specific, you can do it on anyone with supernatural healing”

“I’m not going to help you hurt him” She refused shaking her head. “Mason Lockwood’s a werewolf, Katherine’s evil, they’re the bad guys… Really? You’re going to play the morality police with us right now? Let me put it another way, they’re a threat to Elena, so you, witch, are going to get over yourself and help us” Damon told her just as Stefan joined us. “Yeah, he meant that as a question with a ‘please; on the end” Stefan told her glaring at Damon. “Absolutely”

Of course with them being a threat to Elena, Bonnie agreed to help us which didn’t surprise me, everyone seems to want to help Elena. So once Bonnie managed to weaken Mason, giving him an aneurism and Damon finishing him off with a knee to the head, myself Damon and Bonnie brought him back to the Boarding house ready to get some answers.

“Woah” I looked over to Damon as I finished putting the sheet down on top of the rug so we didn’t end up with any blood stains. “Looks like this guy used to being tied up” I chuckled as my eyes landed on the chains Damon pulled out of Mason’s bag before walking over to Bonnie who placed her hands on Masons head. “What are you doing?” Damon asked her.

“You’re look for a moonstone, I’m trying to help you find it” Bonnie told him with her eyes closed as she concentrated on getting the location. “Oh, good, yeah, find out if he gave it to Katherine and find out where she is, and find out what they’re gonna do with it once they get it” Damon told her making me roll my eyes. “It doesn’t work like that Damon”

“Somewhere small, dark, there’s water” Bonnie mumbled as she concentrated on the images she was getting. “Like a sewer?” I asked raising my eyebrows. “No, like a well? That’s can’t be right… yeah, it’s a well” She spoke quietly with her hands still on the wolfs head. “Why the hell would it be in a well?” Damon asked looking at me confused. “I told you, I only het what I get” Bonnie told him as she removed her hands from Masons head, only for the wolf to wake up with a gasp grabbing onto her hand.

I rushed over to them pulling his hand off her. “That’s it, that’s all I got” Bonnie told us as she walked over to grab her bag getting ready to leave. “Hey, judgy!” I stopped her. “Thank you” I thanked her as she turned around to look at me, she didn’t say anything she just carried on making her way out of the house.

I looked at Damon who smirked at the semi-conscious wolf. “Come, wake up wolf boy” When he didn’t move Damon sent a punch to his face, which made him wake up. I smirked as I walked over to the fireplace grabbing the iron poker sticking it into the fire letting it heat up ready for the torture that was about to begin.

“Someone’s feisty” I looked behind me seeing Mason trying to break free from the chains that he was currently restrained by. “What!” Mason shouted looking between me and Damon as I walked over to them. Damon laughed as he grabbed the poker out of my hand and shoved it through Mason’s chest. “You can hurt, good to know, I was afraid you were gonna be some beast mass with no affinity of pain” As he pulled the poker out I shook my head as I watched the wound heal. “But you heal quickly, not good. I guess I’ll just have to keep applying pain”

While Damon went to re-warm the poker up, I stood in front of Mason. “So, Katherine, how do you know her? What’s she up to?” I asked raising my eyebrows, instead of an answer from him, he spat blood onto the floor. So glad we put the sheet down. “I have all day” I reminded him as Damon handed me the poker, which I shoved into Mason’s stomach making him scream out in pain, I smirked as I handed the poker back to Damon.

“When did you 2 meet? Did she seduce you? Tell you she loved you?” Damon asked looking down at Mason. “You’re supernatural so she can’t compel you, I’m sure she used her other charms, Katherine’s good that way” He carried on just as Jeremy walked into the room setting a box down on the table.

“I thought I told you to leave?” Damon raised his eyebrows looking over at little Gilbert. “I found something in Ric’s box of stuff” Intrigued at what he found I walked over to him. “What is it?” I asked confused. “I did a search on my phone, it’s a plant, Aconitum Vulparia, it grows in the mountainous areas of the northern hemisphere, commonly known as aconite, blue rocket and wolfsbane” He explained as he pulled out a sheet of what I’m guessing it the plant he was talking about.

I took the cloth out of his hand looking at the plant. “What else did you read?” I asked not staking my eyes off the plant, Damon listening into the conversation. “Every source says something different, one myth says it causes Lycanthropy, which sounds bogus, another one says it protects people, and another says, well, it’s toxic”

I snapped my head over to Mason who made a noise at the back of his throat making me smirk. “I’m taking toxic” I chuckled as I walked over to Mason, the wolfsbane still in my hand. “Now tell me, wolfie, what’s Katherine doing back in Mystic Falls?” When he didn’t answer I brushed the plant against his cheek watching as his skin burn, him letting out a bunch of grunts, sounding like he was holding in his screams.

“Why is she here?” Damon asked once I pulled the plant away. “She’s here with me, why you ask? You jealous?” Mason smirked at him. “Not the answer I was looking for” I laughed before shoving the wolfsbane into his mouth, the skin around his mouth burning as I muffled his screams of pain with the plant. “Yummy” I laughed as he started spitting out the remainder of the plant once I pulled it away.

“Why do you want the moonstone?” Damon asked looking over at Mason who looked like he’d been dribbling a lot. “Screw you!” He shouted. “Errr! Wrong answer” Damon snapped as he pulled the plant out of my hand. “If he was gonna say anything he would’ve already” Jeremy spoke up walking towards us, but of course we ignored him. “I’m taking your eyes now”

“The well! You’ll find it there!” He shouted as Damon stood in front of him, wolfsbane still in hand. “We know where it is, I want to know what it does and why you want it” Damon told him. “I’m getting it for Katherine” Mason confessed. “Why?” I asked confused sharing a look with Damon. What the hell does Katherine, a vampire, want with a moonstone that can allegedly break the whole wolf turning on a full moon malarkey? “She’s gonna lift the curse”

“Of the moon? Now why would a vampire help a werewolf break a curse that keeps them from turning whenever they want?” Damon asked confused. “So I wouldn’t have to turn anymore” Mason breathed. “Why?” Damon asked. “Because she loves me” I burst out laughing, the whole doubling over shebang, I couldn’t help myself. “Now, now I get it, you’re just stupid” Damon smirked down at Mason. “Hate to break it to you wolfie, but Katherine doesn’t love you, more like she’s using you” I shrugged. “I’m done talking” He shook his head.

“Yes you are” I nodded as Damon passed Jeremy the wolfsbane. “It’s time to take a walk Jeremy” I told him keeping my eyes on the wolf who’s life I’m gonna end. “I’m staying” He stated. “No, you should go” Damon told him, knowing that it was gonna affect the young Gilbert boy. “I’m staying Damon, he’s had enough”

“Just help Tyler, don’t let this happen to him” Mason told him keeping his eyes on me and Damon. “Damon, Lilly-“ Jeremy started to talk us out of it but I rushed over to him grabbing him by the throat. “You wanted to be part of this, little Gilbert, well her it is, kill or be killed! This guy is a werewolf, he’d kill me and my brothers the first chance he got! So you suck it up or leave” I snapped before letting him go so he could breathe again before looking over at Mason. “He wants us to kill him anyway, don’t you Mason? It really is a curse, isn’t it?”

He didn’t say anything he just put his head down with tears in his eyes, Jeremy grabbing his bag to leave the boarding house, obviously not being able to handle it. “You know, I look at you and I see myself, a less dashing, less intelligent version” Damon mussed once Jeremy left. “I love her” Mason looked up at us from the chair shaking his head a little.

“Oh we know, I’ve seen both of my brothers where you are, but Katherine will only rip your heart out” I started as I walked closer to him, standing directly in front of him. “Let me do it for her” I smirked before shoving my hand into his chest gripping on to his heart. “Have fun on the other side” I chuckled before pulling his heart out, throwing it across the room behind me as I watched the life leave his eyes, his head dropping down to his chest.

“Well that was fun” I chuckled before turning around to look at Damon. “Did Stefan find the moonstone?” I asked him. “I haven’t heard back from him, let’s get this cleaned up” He shrugged before we started to clean up the mess, starting by unchaining the dead wolfie.

“I see you’ve bother exercised your usual restraint” I snapped my head to the left, my eyes landing on Stefan who walked into the room catching us wrapping Mason up in the sheet so we could dispose him, throwing a stone towards me which I had to quickly catch. “All this for a little stone?” I asked raising my eyebrows as I looked at the moonstone. “Yep, he hid it down a well full of vervain”

“Carol, big opportunity in Florida, I’m gonna be gone for a long time, will send for my things once I get settles, much love, Mason” Damon spoke and as I looked over at him I smirked noticing Mason’s phone in his hand.

“Let’s get rid of the body” Stefan told us as he bent down ready to grab Mason’s feet. “Ooh, last number dialled, I wonder who that could possibly be” Damon smirked looking over at me and Stefan. “No, no, no! don’t provoke her” Stefan tried to stop him but I wrapped my hand around his mouth shutting him up while Damon put the phone to his ear.

“Mason, you should have been here an hour ago” The tramp spoke from the other end of the phone. “Wrong boy toy” Damon laughed looking over at me and a struggling Stefan. “Damon, for once you’ve surprised me. I assume Mason’s with you” I smirked looking down at the sheet that was wrapped around his body. “He’s right beside me, although his hearts across the room, you can thank Lilly for that” Damon tormented her. “You’re welcome darling” I called knowing she’d be able to hear me. “You shouldn’t have”

“I’ve had a very busy day today” Damon started as he sat down in one of the chairs. “Tortured a werewolf, found the moonstone. Hey, did you know that he hid the moonstone at the bottom of a well full of vervain? I guess he didn’t trust you very much, although he did love you, poor guy. Hey, where are you? ‘Cause you know I can bring him over, last goodbyes and all that”

“You have no idea what you’ve just done” Katherine spoke as I let go of Stefan knowing he won’t stop him now. “Aww, did we put a kink in your master plan? I’m so sorry” Damon cooed making me chuckle. “Do you honestly believe I don’t have a plan B? And if that fails a plan C? Then a plan D, and… you know how the alphabet works, don’t you? Send my love to Stefan”

“What a b***h” I mumbled as she put the phone down. “I’m sure you 2 can clean this mess up, I need a shower, get this wolf blood off me” I smirked before rushing up to my room to get a shower and getting changed into some sweats.

I knew the b***h had a plan B, I just had to figure out what it was to stop it, I planned to ruin everything she did, she wasn’t getting what she wanted, whatever that is.

After I long shower I made my way downstairs where Elena was stood just about to walk out of the door. “Elena” Damon called, she turned her head towards him with tears falling down her cheek. “I riled Katherine up, I-I wasn’t thinking, I didn’t think”

“It doesn’t matter, Damon, she won, Katherine won” Elena cried before opening the door further and leaving. I looked over to Damon once the door shut. “What the hell happened? How’s Katherine won?”

“Katherine compelled Jenna to stab herself because Elena and Stefan was still together even though the b***h told him she didn’t want them together anymore, they were sneaking around because Caroline was her spy, but so was Jenna without anyone knowing, and because what we did tonight, Jenna, Stefan and Elena are paying the consequences”

I clenched my fist pissed off with the woman who loves to ruin my families lives. “When I see her, I’m gonna kill her” I gritted before walking into the library where Stefan was stood looking at nothing, tears falling down his face. As I stood in front of him I pulled him into a hug. “She’ll pay for this Stefan, I promise you, she doesn’t get to win this time” I whispered as I tried to comfort him.

No matter how much I hated his relationship with Elena, he didn’t deserve this, the b***h had controlled and ruined his life one too many times now, and I was gonna end it once and for all.

Nobody ruins my brothers lives apart from me.
