Running up that hill : Placebo
A/n: Hey guys I had a few people mention they felt like the D&B reaction to everything that happened was lacking in the last chapter. So, I'm going to post it at the beginning of this one as a bit of a Flash back before I continue on with the story. :D Hope you enjoy

(The Night before)
Opening her eyes she smiled lazily at the feel of strong arms wrapped around her waist. The
cool length of his lean body behind her made the heat that poured off her bearable and the
uncertain future seem not so important. Damon Salvatore was like a drug once he entered your
veins he dulled your senses until the only thing that mattered was him
"Look who decided to join the world of the living," he teased suddenly making her jump.
"Have you been awake this whole time?" She asked turning to face him once he loosened his
grip on her waist.
"Well your night time is technically my day," he said smiling as she eyed him.
She thought she'd feel shy, but there was a feeling of belonging that wouldn't allow modesty.
She'd been adrift like a boat without an anchor since Grams died. Her Father had long been
absent always placing work before family and with her two best friends completely immersed
in their own lives she'd been alone. But she knew now that would never be the case again, even
if she wanted it. Damon Salvatore did not do failure and she hadn't walked away when he'd
given her the chance. He'd follow her to hell and back just to remind her that she was his. And if
she was honest with herself a part of her loved that.
Studying his face she was amazed how much could change so quickly. Curling a lock of her hair
around his fingers as he drank her in his brilliant blue eyes studied her with something ken to
softness.
"What are you thinking?"
"That as bizarre as this should be, it feels right," She answered honestly. The old Bonnie would
have run from the feeling, fought tooth and nail to deny what was right in front of her. But this
new Bonnie was different.
"You look surprised," She said smirking as she took in his expression.
"I didn't expect you to admit it so quickly," he said frowning slightly.
Her confidence was sexy, but annoying at the same time. It left him off kilter and he found that
was a feeling he didn't like much.
Caressing his face gently she told him it was okay with her eyes. Damon had never had a reason
to trust people , and that wasn't going to change overnight.
"IF I could change it over night I would," he said mentally making her smile.
"I know."
There was something about talking telepathically that made it easier to open up. The blood
blond made it had to lie and if he was truthful with himself he didn't want to. This was his
chance for things he'd long given up hope of having. He hadn't wanted immortality really; he'd
only wanted the woman he'd loved; and having her had meant turning. Everything about that
relationship had been a lie, but what he had with Bonnie was real. She'd seen him at his worse
and knew better than most what he was capable of. Yet when he'd given her a chance to
leave she had chosen to stay. She'd chosen him.
"You deserve more than to be someone's second choice," Bonnie whispered pulling him in for a
kiss as she took control.
"Let me love you," She whispered asking for more than permission to take control of his
delectable body.
Proceeding when he acknowledged her question with a tiny nod of agreement she traced his
face gently with her fingers before doing the same with her lips. She was going to show him
what love was supposed to feel like.

"You guys are so gullible," Zoe said rolling her eyes as she sent them a smirk.
"I'm going to do a trance."
"You can do that?"Bonnie asked awed.
Being around Zoe she'd seen things she had only read about. To think that kind of power now
lay in her too was a high. She felt like she could do anything. Looking at Damon out of the
corner of her eye she smiled. She was doing a lot of things these days that she had never
imagined.
"What's that smile about?" Damon asked mentally sending a shiver up her spine. She hadn't
expected the surge of possessiveness that came along with their relationship. If she caught
Elena so much as bat an eyelash at him there would be no keeping them under wraps.
"I'll tell you later," she sent back.
"Do you need help?" She asked refocusing her attention on Zoe.
"No I'll come and find you when I know something, for now enjoy the time you've got."
"I should come to watch over you, just in case," Stefan said quickly giving himself an out from
having to stay with Elena.
"That's a first," Bonnie thought knowing she was being cruel. It wasn't her fault boys were
drawn to her like a bee to honey.
"But it was her fault how she choose to deal with it," A voice said comforting her.
There was a price that came along with power. A darkness that reared its head at inopportune
moments, and made her realize there was a side to her she'd been keeping hidden. A Bonnie
who didn't' worry what others thought or question herself, the confidence was addicting and it
made her understand Damon so much more.
"Its fun isn't it?" he asked making her chock back a laugh.
"And then there were three," Damon said sarcastically.
Funny that a few days ago all he wanted was Elena vulnerable alone and now he wished she
was anywhere else.
"It's okay Damon, you don't have to stay and entertain us," Elena said clearing her throat as a
strange silence fell and the two exchanged a look she couldn't read.
"Should we tell her?" Bonnie asked.
"Let's see how long it takes her to figure it out on her own," he teased making her smirk.
" Damon," She admonished.
"Fine," he replied making her laugh. Only he could make one word sound like an eye roll.
"That'd be kind of hard seeing as how where thou goes I go and all that," he said smirking as
Elena's brow furrowed and her brown eyes filled with confusion.
"What are you talking about?"
"You want to tell her Honey bun," He asked laying it on thick until she elbowed him.
"Ouch, you have sharp elbows little witch," he said playfully tugging her hair as she turned from
him to focus on her best friend.
"Bonnie.. did he do something to you?"
"Gave her the best sex of her life," he said hissing when she shocked him with a low dose of
electricity.
"That's new, we may have to use that in the bedroom," He teased.
"Bonnie what is he talking about? Why are you denying anything?" Elena asked panicking.
Bonnie hated Damon, so why were they standing so close and trading words like lovers teasing
one another.
"Because it's true Elena," Bonnie said shrugging.
"WHAT ! You hate him!"
"Don't hold back," Damon scoffed.
"Bonnie how could you do this?" She asked feeling like Alice after she'd fallen down the rabbit
hole.
"I know this probably seemed sudden to you Elena, and I'd be a liar if I said I wasn't' shocked
myself. But things change." She said softly as if she was talking to a small child.
"Have I been that out of the loop?" She whispered almost to herself.
"Oh yes, as far as friends go, you've been a horrible one lately," Damon said smirking when
Bonnie didn't dispute the statement. It was time she stopped sugar coating everything.
"I am so sorry," She whispered shaking her head as she saw herself through their eyes.
"Don't apologize, just ... "Bonnie said shaking her head as she trialed off. What could she say
really?
"Don't do it anymore," Damon said looking uncharacteristically serious.
"Stefan you really don't have to be here," Zoe said lighting a candle before she dimmed the
lights.
" I know but I want to be," he said firmly making her roll her eyes.
When Stefan thought he was doing the right thing it took nothing short of a dynamite blast to
move him from his decision.
"Once I enter the trance and reach Emily don't disturb me , no matter what happens."
Taking a deep breath she studied the deep blue color clearing her mind of everything but
Emily. Suddenly her stomach dropped out and everything went black.
"You broke the bond, and for that I am grateful," Emily said standing over her as she came too.
Easing into a sitting position she studied the space and discovered they were in a circle
surrounded by hundreds of candles.
"Where are we?"
"A place where no one else can enter unless I wish it, being bonded with Katherine bound a
part of my powers, but no longer, I am now as I was before she entered my life."
"What made you agree to bond with her."
"Katherine can be charming and quite convincing when she sets her mind to it, and then she
wasn't so..."
"Insane," Zoe offered up making her smile.
"Yes, the years have turned her more ruthless and less human, she's older than most expect."
"How old?" Zoe asked nervously. Age equaled power in the vamp world.
"Over a Millennium," Emily said making her gasp.
"So you see why she's so disconnected, everything she once knew is gone and all that's left is
games for her."
"I saw something before our bond was severed completely, she's coming."
"We know-"
"As we speak she's in route to this town."
"We're not ready!" Zoe hissed as her frustration rose. She could only imagine the blood bath
that would occur if Katherine brought the fight to them tonight.
"Even with the power the ancestors have bestowed it may not be enough," Emily said sighing as
he shook her head.
"For years I protected Katherine, allowing her to keep me alive long past my years, and the
irony that she might be the one to end my lineage is not lost on me. Perhaps it's karma for
cheating death all those years," She said shaking her head.
"What do we need to beat her?"
" I know some spells," She said quickly listing off a few.
"Anything else?" Zoe asked feeling like the odds were stacking against them.
"Someone extremely powerful."
"Someone like you!" Zoe said suddenly excited.
"Me?"
"Now that the bond is broken, I can bring you back can't I?"
"Not without a price," She said honestly.
"It doesn't matter," Zoe said waving her off as she abruptly broke the trance.
"What happened?" Stefan asked anxiously
"We have to get ready Katherine is on her way now," She said quickly sending the same
thoughts to Damon and Bonnie.
"What!"
"I know, but don't worry I have a plan," She said as they made their way to the study once
more.
"So let me get this straight, the doppelganger is on her way here as we speak?" Damon asked
frowning.
"Yes this is why I need you guys to work on these spells while I go and work on one of my own."
"What could possibly be so important right now?"
"Emily, I'm going to bring her back," She said watching his jaw drop.
"I know there's bad blood there, but right now I think you'll quickly agree it's best to let
bygones be bygones," She said as he quickly nodded his agreement.
"Better the devil you know," Damon sent making her smile. Somehow she doubted Emily would
appreciate the reference.
__
"What are these?" Bonnie asked letting her eyes run over the paper she'd been given.
"The protection of Nyx to ask her favor on us all tonight, and a Psychic spell to make sure no
one gets in side our heads that shouldn't," She said tapping her head.
"You think I could do this?" Bonnie asked arching an eyebrow.
"I know you can," Zoe said reaching out to grasp her hand. "The same blood runs through our
veins Bonnie Bennett, you remember that," She said moving to stand in front of Elena.
"Strength of day, Strength of Night, Give her Strength, beyond her sight," She whispered
moving her hands gently from her head down as she gave her blue colored aura a clear coat.
"Should help," She said gone before anyone could comment.
"Okay Scooby gang, let's gather the ingredients we need and come back to do some hocus
pocus," Damon said avoiding an awkward silence by sending them all into motion.
"I need everyone to hold hands," Bonnie said telling Damon mentally that he needed to be
touching her but she needed her hands free.
Feeling his cool arm wrap around her waist she took a deep breath before reaching inside to
channel the power of her ancestors.
"Oh mighty air, that rushes its force through the trees and plans on a windy night I call to thee!"
She cried hands outstretched until she felt the brush of air against her skin.
"Oh Mighty fire, that warms us and helps provide us with many comforts, I cal to thee!" She
cried moving to the east as she pictured flames in her mind mindful of the others in the circle as
a spark erupted and fire encircled them.
"Oh mighty water, that overtakes low land with great force and is essential to all life, I call to
thee." She cried moving to face south as the others arranged their body accordingly.
"Oh my God, is it raining?" Elena whispered feeling the drops brush her face.
"Her powers grown a lot," Stefan whispered awed.
He'd never seen Bonnie like this before, the wind blew her hair back and her jade green eyes
seemed to almost glow in the darkness. She looked regal and his brother behind her lending
silent support completed the picture.
"Oh mighty earth, that we walk upon and must treat as we would our own kin, I call to thee,"
She cried facing west as the ground below them trembled slightly.
"Oh mighty spirit, that rages through all of us, keeping up strong and healthy, in the name of
Night and my goddess Nyx, I call to thee!" She cried arms raised above her head as she looked
up at the full moon
"Oh Sweet Mother of Night, I call upon your name to bring me your protection, shield us from
danger and lend us strength to defeat our foes."
"In Nyx's name I call to thee, Please send your wisdom and protection." She cried lowering her
arms as an unnatural silence fell.
For a moment it was like the whole world had paused until the energy surrounded them
raising the hair on their arms and neck as it filled them with warmth.
"She's blessed us this night, Thank you Nyx," She whispered bowing her head.
"We can break the chain now," She said stepping away as she opened the circle with her
athame and blew out the candles.
"What did that do?" Stefan asked curiously.
"I'm not sure, one can never predict just what a higher being has in mind," Bonnie said shaking
her head.
"Can we finish the speculation at home," Damon asked frowning as he vigilantly watched the
shadows.
____
Digging as quickly as her powers would allow she unearthed the resting place of her ancestor.
Stopping when she hit casket she wiped the dirt from her face before cracking open the coffin.
"And we begin," She whispered pouring the potion over the brittle bones as she began to
chant.
