¡°That's not what I¡¯m saying.¡± Bonnie silently cursed a certain vampire who shall remain nameless for ditching his phone which is what had gotten her into this mess. Breathing a sigh as she collected her thoughts trying to choose the right words to get him to understand what she meant. ¡°It¡¯s not about blame.¡± She couldn't speak to how his wife might be feeling only that she herself wasn't placing blame.
¡°What I meant was there might have been signs that you missed that something wasn't right.¡± Her thoughts going back to her own failure in a similar situation and after a moment she decided that might help. ¡°A while ago someone who was dying used a spell The Travelers use to ¡®passenger¡¯ themselves inside another person on my best friend. I didn't know it. Then after I found out¡.it was like ¡®how did I not know?¡¯¡±
Course she knew that Katherine had considerable practice pretending to be Elena but that didn't make it any better. ¡°I should have figured it out but it was her ex boyfriend, who hadn't known her anywhere close to as long as I had, that did.¡±?
She watched him closely a moment. ¡°Maybe that's when whatever it was happened¡when things started getting stranger.¡± Difficult to say without actually having been there herself to see things first hand but it seemed as likely as anything else did.
Quietly considering what was said about his origin as a vampire, odd to think a spirit capable of doing that. She hesitated lightly chewing on her lip then decided to tell what she knew of his kind. ¡°I know of this family whose mother was a powerful witch and after her youngest son was killed by werewolves she became desperate to protect her family.¡±
For now she would leave names out of it as last thing she needed was to discover this man was someone else that wasn't very fond of the Mikaelsons. Though her reasons for keeping parts of the tale to herself had far more to do with the innocent little girl she¡¯d been asked to help.?
¡°She found this spell meant to protect them from death only she inadvertently created vampires and tried a few times in recent times to correct that mistake because she wasn't such a huge fan of what her children became.¡± Her mind kept returning to a message she needed to send in spite of thinking it wouldn't do any good.?
¡°Excuse me, for a second, there's something I need to do¡I have to get word to the friend whose phone you returned.¡± Bonnie didn't leave the room merely moved over to a small table where there was a pen and paper then scribbled down the message that Elena had been taken by someone looking to teach Damon a lesson for messing with his people.?
She found an old ashtray nearby then placed the note inside as she chanted in a low voice. Her will and power focused on the task at hand. Soon there was a burst of flames that were extinguished only once the paper was consumed. She knew it would reach Damon though when or if he'd even read it was another story.
Turning back to her ¡®guest¡¯ with an apologetic smile. ¡°Sorry about that. It was something that I keep worrying about and waiting was only making that worse. It's about two of my friends.¡± While she was worried less after having heard from Elena she didn't quite trust the one who had her.
¡°I think there are different kinds of change.¡± The witch said returning to the subject. ¡°I think there's the way in which you have which is¡more natural I guess and then there's someone else controlling your body making you do things you wouldn't ordinarily do that also makes you not who you were. It may not have anything to do with your wife. I don't know. It's hard to say until we find her.¡±
