Hearing Bonny's whisper, Damon finally unfroze and hastily disconnected before she could pass the phone to Elena. Hearing her voice was just too much right now. And right now he finally had the strength, will and courage t o do what he should've done a long time ago...It give Elena a Damon free life. He didn't need to be someone one needed to not give up on. He needed to be the guy everyone knew was bad...and treated as such. Then things would be safer for everyone.

"Did you forget how much better vampires can hear, BonBon," he said aloud to the empty air as he sprang to his feet in a fluid gesture and shot off into the night. Without thinking, he headed as far from humanity as he could get...toward the woods. He needed space then to get the hell out of dodge...and he wasn't going to risk heading back into town.

Concerns of the people he'd nearly killed and who their connections may be as well as the connections of Klaus's family to those returning from the dead and what that could mean were conveniently far away right now...Just where they needed to be. Things that had nothing to do with him.

"Good by, Elena," he whispered as he sprinted faster than any mortal ever could through the night.
?
A foolish thing, vampires mixing with mortals...that was the last fleeting thought he could track within himself for a while.
I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed. I get along with the voices inside of my head.
