The Vampire Diaries Cast Their Characters Chapter 5

"Where did you last see Katherine?" asked Nina as they walked through the woods and into the street. 

"Last time she was spotted was at Mystic Grill. That's where the last supposed animal attack took place." replied Stefan as the Mystic Grill came into view. They all walked in, looking around at all the people crowded in it. Drinks were being served and and the sound of pool being played could be heard. They all walked into the dimly lit building. Elena looked at Stefan with worry, "How are we supposed to find her Stefan? She could be anywhere!"

"We wait until something happens. She's bound to get hungry soon and when she strikes we do the same."

Elena nodded, still not sure of this plan but trusting Stefan's intentions. The cast members looked to one another, whispering to each other. Damon looked around the place, desperately trying to find her. Stefan noticed his brother's anexitely and put a calming hand on his shoulder. "Hey, we're going to find her."

Damon nodded, too lost in thought to fight with his brother. He still couldn't believe that she's here. She's actually here and he has to kill her. A part of him doesn't want too, but a part of him knows it has to be done or else more people will die in this town. Stefan felt the same way that his brother did. He loved Katherine and wanted to protect her, but knew that he could never do that because of what she was doing. This town was his home and he has to protect it. But why is she doing this? Why is she killing people here? And why didn't she look for Damon? Those and many more questions burned in Stefan's and no doubt his brother's as well. 

Several hours passed and still no sign of Katherine. Nina, Ian, Kat, Malese, Sara, Steven and Elena were playing pool and the rest were at the bar, thinking up ways of how they could deal with Katherine. Nobody had come up with any ideas except for the ones they already had. The tension and nervousness hung over them like a thick cloud. Damon slammed his fists on the table in exasperation, almost breaking the wood in half. "Where is she?" 

He looked at the questioning eyes staring at him and regained his compourse, but still fuming. He drowned his drink in one gulp and demanded the bartender that he have another one. Stefan watched his brother with sad eyes. He knew that this must be killing him right now, not knowing where she is and the fact that she could strike at any moment was absolutely terrifiying. 

Kevin was on the phone, speaking softly but angrliy. Finally, he slammed the phone shut and muttered unstandable words under his breath. All eyes were on him as they waited for him to explain the phone call. "That was Larry, one of the heads of the CW show and the person who puts our show up. We need to start fliming tomorrow if we want to get more episodes in or else they drop our show."

The cast members gasped, in shock about this sudden turn of events. Micheal was the first one to speak up. "Did you ask for more time? Tell them we're having diffculties."

Kevin sighed. "The show is supposed to return this Thursday and we've already been off for five weeks. Any longer and we get cut."

The whole cast groaned, completely devasted by this news. Stefan smiled at Kevin. "You should go and do your show. Once you're done then you can come back and help us."

Kevin looked at them. "Really? But what if you don't need it?"

Stefan laughed. "Oh trust me, we'll still need help. We won't be able to beat Katherine overnight."

Kevin nodded, smiling at Stefan. Nina and the rest of the guys came back over to the bar, laughing and having a great time, neither one of them knew of the change in plans. Immeditiately, Ian spotted the sad look on his director's face and knew something was up. "Kevin, what's wrong?" asked Ian as he pulled up a bar stool and sat down.

Kevin sighed. "I just got a call from Larry. He wants us back on set and another episode made."

What? We can't do that now!" exclaimed Ian, staring at Kevin in shock. 

"I know Ian, but we have no other choice. They'll cut us from the program if we don't."

Ian sighed angrily. He hated this. He wanted to help out but now he just found out that they couldn't. Nina was at a loss of words. She slowly slid down next to Ian, taking this all in. "I can't believe this." Kat said at last, looking like she was in a daze. "What if something happens to you and we won't be able to help?"

Damon, who had been quiet up until now, turned away from his drink and stared at Kat. "We don't need or want your help. We're better off without you."

Elena stared at Damon in shock. "How can you say that? Of course we need and want their help!"

Damon glared. "No we don't."

Elena threw her hands up into the air. "Why can you just accept help just this once Damon? What is so bad about people wanting to help you? I don't understand!"

"You'll never understand!" yelled Damon, flinging his chair to the side and getting up in Elena's face. "All my life I've been treated like nothing! My father hated me, my mother died when she gave birth to Stefan, and Katherine used me like a tool! So I had NO ONE to rely on besides myself! And I'm not changing that for even a second! You'll never understand Elena, never understand." Elena watched as Damon run vampire speed out the door, perplexed by what just happened. 

Stefan walked over to Elena and put his arm around her. "He's just going through alot right now since Katherine is back. He doesn't know what to think right now and he's very confused."

Elena sighed as she hugged Stefan. "I want to help him so bad. I just don't know what to do."

"The best thing you can do is to leave him alone for awhile, let him sort things out."

Elena nodded, looking out the door Damon went through only moments ago.


Damon paced around outside by the woods, fuming beyond belief and glaring holes into the ground. Who did Elena think she was? Telling him off like that? He didn't need those loser's help with killing Katherine. He'll take care of it himself. Katherine was his respondsibility and he needed to take care of her- not a bunch of humans. He knew he overracted in there, but he couldn't help it. Elena had no right to say that to him. She would and could never understand the amount of pressure he was under right now. The memory of the tomb still haunted him, mocked him. He shut those feelings out after a day of feeling depressed but now that she was back the feelings he tried to keep inside came rushing to the surface and he was unable to stop it. 

Damon decided to turn off these feelings for now and go back inside where everyone was waiting for Katherine to make her appearence, they could be delt with later. He walked back inside to find everyone ingrossed in a deep conversation. Stefan looked up as Damon walked towards the group, looking a little bit better then last time he was in here. "Feeling better?" Stefan asked Damon as he set his stool upright and sat back down in it. Damon ignored Stefan and ordered another drink, clearly not in the mood to talk at the moment.

Stefan sighed and turned back to Elena who gave an exhuasted sigh. She then turned back to Nina who was watching Ian and Kevin. "Are you sure you want me to do this?"

Kevin nodded. "Absolutely sure. I think you're the best man for the job since you care so much about the animals and the enviroment."

Ian nodded. "Ok, I'll go down to Louisiana first thing tomorrow to document the oil spill and hopefully get more people invovled in helping out."

Kevin clapped Ian on the shoulder. "That's great. Besides, I don't think Katherine is going to show up anyways."

"Me either." concured Nina, "we've been waiting for hours and still no sign of her. I don't think she's here you guys."

Stefan nodded as he hopped down from the stool. "I think we better call it a night. The sun is going down and I don't want anyone out here at night. It's too dangerous."

Malese nodded in agreement. "I agree. Defantly too dangerous."

Kevin nodded as he and Ian stood up. "Shall we head out then?" They all filled out of the building and walked down the cement path to the woods, unaware of two piercing diamond like eyes glowing in the fading sunlight, hidden behind the thicken trees and lips pulled back to expose razor sharp teeth, ready to attack.

Damon whipped around and his eyes scanned the trees, looking intensly at them. Stefan looked at his brother quizzically. "What is it Damon?"

Damon shook his head. "Nothing. I thought I heard something." Stefan stared at his brother for a second before walking with the group back to the boarding house.

A/N: Yes I know, I ended it there. :) The next chapter will seem kinda pointless but it's actually the most important chapter in this story. You will see why in later chapters.
