‘’You’re still pouting?’’ Stefan asked his twin as Zara dealt with Elijah ‘’Im fine.. i keep telling you people that’’ Kendra stated ‘’and for the Liszt time, we dont belive you… look at you. You’re like a one of those human drug addicts looking for their next fix! ‘’ damon stated and Kendra rolled her eyes before Zara said she as ready.. stefan hauled Kendra over though she was making it difficult ‘’I dont wanna do some stupid spell!!’’ She whined before she was sudddenly picked up, letting out a shocked yelp as Elijah stepped info of Zara with her.. she felt herself touch the ground again and was made to stay there as Elijah hadnt let go ‘’ugh!! You people are such buzzkills!1 come on just let me like.. torture at least one perosn!1 ill make it discreet! And n one has to know!’’ Kendra whine out.

Elijah sensed Kendra's hesitance and as Zara was ready with the grimoire, he grabbed her and held Kendra by the arms to keep her still. "The more you fight it, the more unpleasant it can be" Elijah warned. He looked in front of him and nodded at Zara who then looked at the grimoire and began chanting the spell three times as the book instructed. Elijah felt Kendra stop fighting to get free and he slowly let go of her arms as the blue candle that was lit then went out suddenly and Zara closed the book. "There. Kendra, how do you feel?" Zara asked Kendra as she looked at the vampire.

Kendragroaned a bit, the pain she felt was really annoying.. it wast so much painful as it was annoying when the spell was done… she sighed and pouted ‘’I feel boring now! I dont even wanna maim.. or burn someting.. you guys suck..’’ Kendra huffed and dmaon and sefan let out a very loud relieved sigh ‘’good, that means we wont ahve to worry about you so much and you can actually be in public’’ damon siad and Kendra huffed again ‘’Mmmm… we got any ice cream?’’ She aksed ‘’anmd theres the hunger.. always happens after the spell.. she craves for human food for a day or two before becoming a normal boring vampire’’ stefan stated and chuckled ‘’oh shut up you mangy rat! ‘’ Kendra stated and threw a pillow at him making him chuckle ‘’thanks for helping Zara, i appreciate it a lot.. so on the topic we talked about earlier..do you need to go grab your things before moving in?’’ Stefan asked. Meanwhile Kendra walked ot the kitchen and rumaged through the freezer. She could hear footsteps follow and remembered the scent, it was definitely Elijah. She turned and saw she was of course right. Closing the freezer she sat downa nd opened the tub of vanilla ice cream ‘’so.. why’d you help Elijah? What’s do you want?’’ She aksed, she figured he wnated something if he was willing to help.

Zara looked at Kendra as the spell worked and she wandered off to the kitchen, Elijah wasn't too far behind her either. "That's...that's it?" She began to ask. "Thats what?" Damon asked in return. "I've never seen a spell work like that, just takes away the physical desire but leaves the mental aspect of it" she remarked. A part of her wondered if she could alter the spell, her desire to kill wasn't like Kendra's, it was more of a mentality than a desire to maim and kill, she figured anyways. "Damon is it okay if i borrow the grimoire? I just want to look over it that's all" she asked. Damon shrugged "i don't see why not, just keep it hidden in..whatever room you pick" Damon instructed and Zara nodded. When Stefan asked if she needed to go get her stuff, Zara slightly tilted her head at him. "What I possess is in that bag" she said simply, pointing to her schoolbag by the door, and it wasn't exactly big either. Elijah stopped in the doorway and slightly leaned against the frame with his shoulder. "Who's to say I want anything? You assume too much for what I am" he lightly remarked. "I simply wished to make peace with your brothers after our last encounter when Rose and Trevor kidnapped Elena on my behalf" he added. "That and to ensure Elena's safety, I couldn't compromise her life with you're previous state" Elijah explained.

(Cant think of much for stefan soo im not gonna do him.. im sorry! )(
Kendra thought for a second abotu what Elijah stated. ‘’Wouldn’t it be best if elena became a vampire? That way you’re obsessive brother couldnt get another possible chance to unlock his wolf side?’’ Kendra asked. She figured since. Katherine did that.. elena should to.. ‘’I mean Katherine did that… granted she ran from him for like 500 years… but still. It makes sense that if elena isnt human.. then your brother cant like.. do his witchy spell and break whatever curse he has. And then shed be safe.. or well..safer.. shes have a better chance. At defending ehrslef, cause frankly shes kinda weak… ‘’ Kendra stated and shrugged a bit ‘’plus…why do you care if there’s peace between you and my brothers? Wouldn’t it be easier to keep elna more on your side than theirs? I know stefan see’s her as a friend, but Damon’s got some kind of feelings.. wouldnt it be easier to have her mroe with you than with them?’’she asked too. Wondering what Elijah’s plans as if he was protecting her. But anyone else she asked him to. It didnt make sense to protect everyone else when sh was the main target.

Elijah let out a breath "Because becoming a vampire is not Elena's choice, if she wants to be human that's up to her, but I will remain here and protect her and her friends and family as long as I can" he explained. "As for your brothers, I will need their aid one day. There is a ritual that my brother needs to do in order to release his wolf side, and part of it involves Elena, I need him vulnerable and in mid transition to be weak so I can finally end his reign of terror" Elijah added. "My brother is highly dangerous, and even as a new vampire Elena would be no match for him at all. He needs to believe she's still human, for now at least" Elijah added.
Zara picked up her back pack from by the door as Damon lead her up to the wing where the twins stayed. "So the room at the end of the hall is Stefan's, that one is Kendra's and that is the bathroom, you can pick either of the other two" he told her. Zara took a moment to look in one then the other before going back to the first, that was directly between the twins rooms. "Thank you Damon" she said softly before going inside, leaving the door open as she put her bag on the floor and looked around.

‘’Hey uh look.. Zara.. i don’t particularly care for witches.. bad memories and all.. bt.. thanks. For what you did down there for Kendra. She doesnt think it’s a problem, the whol, wanting t burn the world down thing.. but.. it is.. so… thanks you.’’ Damon said gently ‘’and dont tell anyone. Thanked you. Got it/‘’ he siad before walking off.. of course stefan heard that as he walked downt he hall and took Damon’s place int he door way. ‘’Hey’’ he siad gently before handing her an envelope. ‘’Here this is yours now. Key to the house, Kendra likes ot make sure no humans get in when we’re not here.. and theres a few debit cards int here, unlimited funds so yu can buy yourself whatevr you wnat. Specially if you wanna make this palce your home like we id’’ he said gently to her with a soft smile on his features.
Kendra looked at Elijah with slightly narrowed eyes.. ‘’not to deviate form the topic or anything.. but… did we ever.. meet before you came ot this shit hole town?’’ She asked as she slightly tilted her head, it had been stuck in her mind since she saw him breifly earlier before ocming tot he house. She could have sworn they had met once before.. she didnt remember details.. just his face…. But then again, her memory wasn the best… it wasnt caus eof anything, she just sucked at remembering people in general…

Zara paused inside her room and turned towards Damon, slightly raising a brow at his words. She smiled slightly at Damon's words and politely nodded "You're welcome" she told him gently. Zara was about to continue looking around the room when she then heard Stefan's voice and this time she approached the door way a bit more. Zara looked down at the envelope, though she was surprised there was a key to the home a vampires when none of them could legally possess it. When Stefan mentioned the unlimited cards, Zara looked up at him surprised. "Really? Why....why would you...do that?" She asked, hesitant to take the envelope, all she had asked for was a place to stay.
Elijah looked at Kendra and was a little surprised by her question. He stood upright in the doorway and took a step into the room a bit more. "You don't remember?" He asked and saw Kendra shake her head. This must have been his brothers doing. "New Orleans, 1915" he told her simply, they had met four years before he, Klaus and Rebekah had fled the city from their father.

"New Orleans, 1915" he told her simply, they had met four years before he, Klaus and Rebekah had fled the city from their father.
‘’New Orleans?’’ Kendra asked as she et her spoon down into the ice cream… her brows furrowed as she tried ot remember 1915, New Orleans… but it came up empty ‘’honestly Elijah, im sorry but i have no memory of being in New Orleans in 1915… i really truly dont’’ she said sincerly. She was trying to remember, but anything from that time seemed to jsut be comepletly gone.. ‘’I actually dont recall why i cnat remember.. its like.. i know your face… i know i know you.. but… as hard as i try i just cant fill in this black void of missing information’’ she stated and sighed… before she could say much else Elijah was infront of her, compelling her to remember anything that was taken form her… and suddenly a hoard of memories came flashing into her mind again… once they settled she looked at Elijah curiously before slapping him ‘’asshole! You left! You ran!’’ She staed and whacked him again before suddenly hugging him ‘’but im glad youre alive at least’’ sh said softly.
Stean shrugged a bit ‘i remember what it was like, starting over, not having much, when me and my siblings turned.. when i.. forced damon and Kendra to turn… we had nothing.. everyone thoguht we were dead.. we had to fight pretty hard to giant he money we got now.. money is everything int his world.. and unfortunately compelling people to much, gains attention… ‘’ he siad gently ‘’besides.. youre basically family now.. and as such we’re gonna help provide for you… provide a home.. a fmaily.. a safe space. You mgiht as well live somewhat comfortably while creating this space’’ stefan said with a soft smile ‘’and we also dont care about your past.. hi im a ripper remember? Kendra is obsessed with death and torture, and damon.. well.. he’ll kill anything cause he deosnt overly care.. we all got a past, it would be stupid of us to judge yours when we dont even have good ones…’’ stefan added and chuckled’’you’re family. Suck it up. Nedra aint gonna let her new ‘bestie’ get away no.. and damon seems to… like you… he hasnt tried to kil lyou yet so take that as a compliment really. As for me.. Ithink your interesting. I wouldnt mind getting to know you more’’ stefan and shrugged again.

Elijah had hope that he was doing the right thing when he stood in front of Kendra and compelled her to remember that time in New Orleans. He hardly moved besides the turn of his head when she slapped him, though it wasn't unexpected. "I'm sorry" he began as he gently hugged her back. "We thought our father had killed everyone we knew then, tearing the city apart to find us. Later did I learn it wasn't US he was hunting, simply my brother to kill him for the monster and reminder of our mother's infidelity that he was" Elijah attempted to explain. He pulled back enough to look down at Kendra "You have no idea how glad I was to see you were alive and well after all this time" he added as he gently cupped her face.
Zara stood there in front of Stefan as he explained why they were helping her, even for her this seemed particularly odd. "You and your siblings have no idea who I am Stefan,besides the past what I've told you. Family is something that I haven't had in six centuries, I don't think I even understand the dynamics of one anymore" she somewhat rambled as she hesitantly took the envelope he held out to her. "Thank you" Zara said simply, sincerely and quickly. "Unfortunately my past still haunts me, as you witnessed at the school today. One small wrong move can make chaos, not only for myself, but everyone around me. For so long I enjoyed it, but I've come to a point where there are no more adversaries that exist, too few to go around killing at random in warning of my name. Trying to change what I have been for so long, now it feels like a demon dwells inside me that I cannot escape" she admitted.
