Let’s play hide and seek!

*Inside the school*

Damon and Katherine walk out of one of the rooms. No, it wasn’t ‘let’s get dirty at school’ class. I don’t really know why they are there. Again, it has to do with their plan, it could be anything related to it. But they just finished whatever they were doing, and now they’re walking down the corridor to get out. They are alone.

“So… what’s gonna happen tomorrow? After we’re all done with this.” Damon asks Katherine.

“What do you mean?”

Damon stops which makes Katherine stop too.

“You promised me something. You said you will leave Mystic Falls with me.”

“Yeah, I did… But you know, I like Mystic Falls. Without the werewolves it’s the perfect place.”

“No, Katherine, we’re not gonna play this game. You promised…”

“What if I changed my mind?” she crosses her arms.

“Did you?”

She doesn’t answer.

“Well, in that case, I’m gonna drag you out. How about that?” Damon smirks.

“You know, the way you talk to me… is not really a sign of your… affection.” she shakes her head, but smirks.

“Well, nothing else works on you, so….” He also smirks.

This is funny. I mean, they are both badass and they know it. So, they better play nice…

“How about… ‘I love you, Katherine. I want to spend eternity with you.’ Hmm?” That bitch really loves herself, lol.

Damon doesn’t say anything.

“No?” Katherine says and fake pouts.

“Let’s get out of here.” Damon says and turns around. Katherine rolls her eyes behind him and goes after him. But after two steps she stops. She senses someone behind them. Damon notices she’s stopped and turns back.

“What’s wrong?” he asks. He didn’t sense the same thing she does.

She suddenly turns around as someone passes across the other side of the corridor behind her. Then she turns back to Damon who noticed that.

“Get out!” she says.

“No…”

“Just do it!”

They don’t have time to fight, because the mysterious vampire around them just passed behind them, again. That’s scary. We can see Katherine’s scared. She walks around, trying to detect who’s hiding. This scene reminds me of the one in ‘The Return’ with Katherine and Elena after finding John in the kitchen. But this is creepier, it’s dark in the school corridor and we don’t actually see the other vampire who’s playing around Damon and Katherine.

Katherine hears a noise from one of the rooms. ‘I got you now‘ she thinks and vamps over there, almost breaking the door while opening it aaaaand….

…. nothing! The room is empty. Windows closed. Whoever is playing is a good player.

Katherine turns back to the corridor, she’s lost the mysterious vampire. But then she notices something else…

“Damon?” Wait… where is Damon? He was just there and now… he’s not!

No answer. Okay, this is not good…

“Damon?” Katherine calls for him louder now. Wow, she’s freaking out. How could she totally miss this?

And then someone right behind her almost whispering says:

“Boo.” She turns around and look who’s smirking at her: Damon! She sighs in relief. That did scare the hell out of her.

“Scared you?” Oh, Damon… you love joking around, don’t you?

“What are you doing?”

“I was trying to track the guy!” Okay, Damon, but next time don’t freak us out too. “Well, now he’s gone. But you know we must find out who he is.” he says.

“I wouldn’t worry about it right now. He’ll show himself eventually.” Katherine says much calmer now.

“Yeah? And that will happen before or after he kills us?” Damon is irritated now.

“He won’t kill us.” Katherine rolls her eyes.

“Speak for yourself! That man almost killed me once! Whoever he is I hate him already.” You have no idea how much you’re going to hate him yet, Damon.

“Well, he didn’t kill you now, so stop complaining. And we’re late, let’s go.”

Seeing Damon’s facial expression she couldn’t just go. “Look, sooner or later he will reveal himself. Trust me, they always do.”

“Yeah, you know… that reminds me of something I always wanted to ask you. Out of pure curiosity, how many vampires did you turn in your entire life?” Good question.

“Uhh, that’s almost like asking me how many children I would have.” The simple idea of it seems to horrify her more than any stalking vampire. “Just… way too much.” she shakes her head and rolls her eyes.

Damon’s face goes “EWW!” and he says: “I didn’t need to know that now, did I?” Oh, come on Damon. Isn’t that obvious?

Katherine just shrugs like she’s saying ‘like I care…’

Damon turns away from her and says: “Just… let’s go…” Katherine smirks behind him and they leave the school.

Okay, I know that this scene, alone, doesn’t have much impact. At least, that’s how I feel about it. But it’s going important for the development of the story line.

By the way, I’d like to point out that Damon and Katherine would make a great Team Badass. I mean, they kind of are in this episode already, because of their plan to kill the werewolves, but they could do much better than this. They could be really bad and cause some serious damage and not even feel bad about it. I would love to see something like that and who knows…

*in the meantime*

Alaric is a double agent. He’s part of the secret council thanks to Damon’s recommendation. His job in their plan is basically to fool the council and make sure no one does anything to stop the werewolf hunting. But he fails. Obviously.
He just arrived. The sheriff goes to talk to him.

“Hey, thanks for coming. We have a lot of things to do today.” Who doesn’t?

“Yeah, sure… what’s up?”

“You won’t believe this: we found out that Stefan and Damon Salvatore are vampires. So is Katherine who was supposed to be Elena’s twin sister…” Liz shakes her head. Yeah, that’s just madness.

Alaric thinks: “What the hell…” But he says: “Oh.. really?” he tries to seem surprised. Actually he is surprised they found out. “How did you find out?”

“We have a source.”

“Who?” Poor Ric.

Elena and Mason.

“That doesn’t matter. What matters is that we are going to take them down today. Right now.”

Alaric thinks: “You’re kidding me, right….? Please, be kidding me…”

“You know, I don’t think that’s a good idea… we need a plan…”

“We have a plan. We had one week to work on it.” And you’re telling him now? I guess the sheriff didn’t trust Alaric that much… He’s too close to Damon and she knows that.

“Okay… I can call Damon and… “

“I already did. He’s on his way. We’re going after Stefan, and I need you here to help us deal with Damon.”

Alaric thinks: “Oh, crap.”

“Sure thing…” That didn’t sound convincing at all.

“I’m just going to wait for Mason… I thought he should know about this.” She hesitates before she goes on. “I need to ask you something. Do you know anything about werewolves? You just know everything about vampires and I thought… if anyone had some information about other supernatural creatures that would be you.”

Alaric thinks: ‘WHAT?’

“Umm… werewolves? No… no, I’m sorry. I don’t think so.”

Now, that’s messed up…  Alaric manages to alert Stefan, but not Damon. Stefan can’t leave the place he’s in, but at least he knows they’re after him now.

Don’t worry, Damon has it all under control…

Damon found out that Stefan and Elena are no longer together. He’s happy about it actually. But it makes him do the slyest, baddest thing ever. No, he’s not going to kill anyone. But it’s really stupid and he’s not thinking of the consequences… again.

Gilbert house

There are some unclear parts in this scene… I don’t know how exactly this happens or how Damon will make it work, but, this is what he does….

He walks into the Gilbert’s kitchen. He’s alone. He picks up a glass and pours juice in it. All is good until he takes a knife…

…and cuts himself. He let’s his own blood drip into the juice and mixes it in with the knife.  It’s not much blood, but enough to… you know what. He heals, cleans the knife, then Jenna walks in holding her purse and jacket and she’s in a hurry.
“Damon! I didn’t know you were here.” She grabs something from the fridge.
“Elena called me.” Damon says.
“She’s upstairs. Uhh, it’s so hot!” Jenna picks up the glass of juice and drinks some of it. Damon does the ‘dammit!’ face, but tries to control it. He looks hilarious.
“That’s for… Elena.” he says awkwardly.
Jenna had less than half of it, but that’s still enough to… you know what. “Sorry,” she rolls her eyes and puts the glass down. “See you later.” Damon nods as she leaves. He pours himself some juice too then he turns to the door. We see heels, tight ass pants and curly hair. It’s Elena. Dressed up as Katherine. Damon whistles approvingly. Elena walks in.
“So, how good are you at being evil?” Damon asks her smirking.
“Why did you want me to do this?” she answers with this question.
“It’s part of the plan.” Damon smirks and hands her THAT glass… She takes it and drinks from it.
“Yeah? And what if they attack me thinking I’m her and get killed in the process? Have you thought about that?” She drinks more.
“Of course I have.” Damon replies.
Elena puts the now empty glass down and raises her eyebrow.
“And….?” Oh, you just drank the answer, Elena….
“Not evil enough!” he jokes. She’s not in a fun mood so he goes serious and rolls his eyes. “No one’s going to attack you, Elena! It’s only to cause some confusion.”
“Right…I still hate it. These heels are killing me.”
“It’s not time to be picky. At least she didn’t take anything from you this time.”
“I wouldn’t mind at all… I would give her my entire wardrobe if it gets her to leave town.” She says angrily.
“Much better!” he smirks again, referring to her being a little bitchy now. Like Katherine.
“This is not funny, Damon! What if people find out?”
“They won’t find out! Oh, and don’t tell Stefan about it.”
“We don’t really… talk these days.” She says and turns away.
“Yeah, I heard… What’s next?” Or who’s next? Isn’t that what you really wanted to say, Damon?
“I don’t know… I don’t know what will happen to our relationship…  it’s too complicated.”
Damon thinks: ‘wait… I thought your relationship is… over?’ But he doesn’t say a thing.
“We’ll figure it out… I guess.” Poor Elena. She does sound sad.
Damon has the ‘ding ding ding’ moment: ‘oh. Katherine… Goddammit…’
“Hey… don’t worry. We’ll get through this. And no one’s gonna find out.” he says calmly. She nods. That could’ve been a great moment between them. But we know what he has done… and it makes all this false. Damon… you’ve disappointed me.
Then Jeremy walks in. “Hey!” He says and he looks at Elena. “What’s with the costume?” he laughs and goes upstairs.
Right. No one’s gonna find out. Except for Jeremy.
Damon goes after him into his room. He gets straight to the point and asks:
“How do you know that she’s not… her?”
“She’s my sister. I’ve known her my whole life. It would be weird if I didn’t know she’s not my sister, right?”
Right. Damon doesn’t have anything to say against that.
“What are you doing today?” Why so curious, Damon?
“Umm… I’m gonna stay at the Lockwood’s.. we have that project to do for school… See you later?” And he leaves his room, but Damon stops him.
“You’re going to study without your stuff?”
The bag, Jeremy!
“Yeah, right… thanks!” He goes back, picks the bag up then his phone rings. It’s Katherine. Damon doesn’t see that, but asks him anyways: “Aren’t you gonna answer that?”
Jeremy changes his tone. “Aren’t you leaving?” Wow. This is getting tense.
“What’s your problem, Jeremy?” Damon approaches him.
“What’s yours?” Jeremy doesn’t back off. He turns his phone off.
“I’m just curious.”
“Don’t be.” You tell him, Jer!
Jeremy finally leaves. Damon wonders what the hell is going on with him and the Lockwoods… Oh, Damon. Only if you knew…

 

Just to make it clear: Elena has NO intention to become a vampire. At all. And if she knew that Damon ‘gave’ her his blood… she wouldn’t be very grateful. Oh and Jenna. She has his blood in her system too. Awesome… Great job, Damon!

 

Goodbye, brother!

Salvatore house

So, we know that things between Stefan and Elena hasn’t been good lately. And Stefan thinks she broke up with him, but it was Katherine. Although, Elena was thinking of breaking up with him a long time ago… Anyways, they’re not really speaking to each other.

Damon is in the living room, drinking blood when Stefan arrives.
“Success?” Damon asks him. Stefan nods.  They just started putting their anti-werewolf plan into action. (By the way, I don’t know what the plans are exactly, but I  know they are some master plans…)
“I should probably go, we can’t lose time.” Stefan says. (I don’t know where he has to go, but it’s somewhere near Mystic Falls, at a deserted area). “You have it under control, yeah?” he asks Damon, turning around to leave.
“Wait!” Damon’s confused. “Aren’t you going to Elena’s party?”
Stefan turns to him, sighs and says: “No, Damon, I’m not.”
“Why?”  he does the eye thing too “We need someone there to distract them.”
“She made it pretty clear she doesn’t want me there. So…”
“Oh.” Now he gets it… “Well, I can go then.”
“You know, I think it’s better if none of us went. They could attack us right there.”
“Not if I stay really close to her.” Damon smirks. Ouch. That was a dick move. Based on Stefan’s facial expression, that’s what he’s thinking too.
“What about Katherine?” he asks Damon bitterly.
“What about me?” I love how Katherine just pops up out of nowhere, surprising both Salvatore brothers. She was holding the paper she took from the Lockwood house.
“Don’t worry about it.” Damon says and gives Stefan one of the meanest looks ever. Stefan looks right back at him. Katherine stares at them then says: “How are we going to work together if you two keep fighting?”
“Since when do you care?” Damon has never spoken to Katherine like that… it’s quite shocking. He puts the glass of blood down and approaches her and continues. “You are the reason for all of this. No one else. It’s your fault.” Wow! Did he really just say that? Katherine’s face is just… hilarious. Damon turns to Stefan: “See you tonight then, brother!” Then he leaves. Katherine looks at Stefan who shrugs at her. “I know it sucks…” he was referring to what Damon told her. Yes, he knows how that sucked… “But this time I must agree with him.” Ouch again. She wasn’t expecting that. Not from Stefan. Stefan leaves too. Katherine just shakes her head. She stares at the layout she took for a while… She’s wondering where that room is. She wants to find it…

This is the first and last time these three have a scene together in this season finale. In fact, it’s the last scene Stefan and Damon have together in this episode… Next time won’t be tonight, as planned. Something happens that none of them expect. Next time will not be anytime soon. And it will happen in totally different circumstances.

The strangest dream

Lockwood Mansion

Katherine is standing in the middle of the living room, she’s wearing a white shirt. There are some people around. Katherine looks upset though. Then Mason shows up behind her. He’s the wearing a black shirt. He looks hot. Like always.
“Are you okay?” he asks her and she turns to him. He holds her hands and looks worried at her. She sighs and answers: “Yeah, I’m fine.” It doesn’t sound convincing though.
“You know, I should just…” Mason talks to himself angrily and turns around to find someone… but Katherine stops him.
“No, don’t. It’s okay. It’s okay!” she tries to calm him down. It looks like someone has hurt Katherine somehow and Mason doesn’t like it at all. He sighs and lets her hug him. He hugs her back and runs his fingers through her hair. Then she looks at him and says: “I love you.” He smiles and replies: “I love you too.” Then he kisses her. She kisses back then smiles too. It’s a really sweet moment. She snuggles him and….

Okay. Wait. Breathe pause.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS!?

… and then Tyler wakes up. He sits up in his bed like he had a nightmare. Then he looks at the clock and gets up quickly. He slept with his clothes on from last night. It’s 10 am already and he has to go. But he can’t stop thinking about his dream… now why would he dream about his uncle and Katherine getting romantic? It didn’t seem like a natural dream…
Then Jeremy finds him. He spent the night there after Mason and Tyler went through all the plans with him.
“Morning!” Jeremy says. He seems to be in a much better mood than he was last night. “You’re uncle’s calling you.”
“Yeah… I’ll be right there…” Tyler doesn’t seem to be happy at all.
“I gotta go. See you later then?” Jeremy doesn’t wait for an answer and leaves. What none of them know is that their next meeting is going to be… quite different from what they planned.

In the next scene, we see Mason standing next to his car, texting on his cell phone. The trunk was open, but we don’t see what’s in it (yet).
Tyler appears.
“Hey, the sheriff just called. They’re having a meeting. She said they need you.” Tyler talks to Mason, but he doesn’t seem to be paying attention at him. Tyler crosses his arms and waits. Then Mason answers.
“Well, you can go and wish her good luck, whatever it is. I can’t go.”
“Why not?”
“I’m busy.” He’s still texting.
“With what?” Tyler asks.
Mason looks at him and says: “Why don’t you go to the meeting?”
“Me?”
“Yeah. Tell them I can’t help.”
Tyler ponders then says: “Okay.” Mason turns his attention to his car now and Tyler goes on.
“Look, I have to ask you something.”
“Make it quick.”
Tyler thinks… how could he ask ‘Are you in love with Katherine?’ without sounding like… an idiot?
Mason looks up. “What is it?” he asks impatiently.
“Nevermind… it’s not important. ” Tyler turns around to leave, but Mason makes him stop.
“Wait.” Mason says and hands him a stake. “Take this with you.” Tyler looks at him surprised, but takes the stake and goes inside. Then Mason goes back to close his car’s trunk. Now we see what’s inside: some explosives and a stake. (I know, you shouldnt put explosives into your car, but Mason is a brave man… You have no idea how much yet.). He closes the car’s trunk and goes inside the living room. He puts something in a drawer and starts picking up other things from the table (there’s a gun on it too), but before he could finish he hears something falling then a painful yell coming from the front door.
“Tyler?” he steps away from the table so he can see what’s happening in the corridor. And what he sees is terrifying: Katherine holding Tyler from behind him like she’s about to snap his neck. Mason stops in shock.
“Good morning, Mr Lockwood!” Katherine says in her most evil voice.  Tyler can’t move a muscle. Mason’s too shocked and scared to move.
“What are you doing?”  Mason asks her, scared.
“I hoped we can talk.” Katherine says in her evil tone.
“Let him go… please?” Mason slowly tries to approach them.
“Not until I find out what you’re up to.”  she say and Mason stops.
“What are you talking about?” he shakes his head, asking her.
“I know you’re hiding something from me… and I’m gonna find out what it is, so… how about you give me your cell phone? Or watch our little wolfie die. Before I count down to one…” Katherine demands.
“Why don’t you come and get it?” Mason replies defiant.
“Three…” she starts counting down.
“Wait…”
“Two!” she raises her voice.
“Fine!” he yells at her then takes out up his cell phone from his pocket, shows it to her by holding it up and puts it on the table. Then he holds his breath and waits…
Katherine pushes Tyler away, who falls over on the ground, and rushes over to the table, next to Mason. She picks up the white cell phone, stares at it for a second then turns to Mason and rolls her eyes, saying: “The other one.”
Mason looks at her confused first…
“Now!” Katherine demands.  Mason doesn’t have another choice.  He sighs and pulls another phone out of his other pocket. It’s a small purple one. Katherine takes it then  looks back at him.
“Don’t you ever try to fool me again!” it’s like the Devil talking. Fooling Katherine is not easy. Got it, Mason? Oh, he pouts (hottt). Katherine turns around, it looks like she’s leaving, then suddenly turns back, like something has caught her attention. She looks at Mason, who look back confused (and scared). There is too much tension between them. Tyler (who got up already) stares… yeah, Tyler, that was a dream. This is reality. Which doesn’t mean that their feelings in that dream are not real. But it’s not what it seems like at the moment. Then Katherine grabs something from the table and rushes out pushing Tyler purposely on her way out. He falls over again. Mason looks at the table and finds out what’s missing: the layout of that mysterious room (the one that Tyler got in his hands the night before). Mason doesn’t show any reaction about it. He totally ignores Tyler and gets a gun out of a drawer and grabs some other stuff from the table. Tyler doesn’t really like that.
“What the hell was that!?” he yells at his uncle. Poor kid almost got killed, I can totally understand him… However, Mason’s behavior isn’t very consoling.
“Nothing…”
“What do you mean ‘nothing’?? What… what does she want with your cell phone?”
“I guess she wants to find out what I’m hiding from her.”
“Then she’s gonna find out! About… everything! We’re screwed!”
“No, we’re no…”
“How can you say that!???” Uh, this is getting ugly…
Mason looses his patience now and shouts back: “Because what she’s looking for… *opens drawer and gets another cell phone out* is this!” It’s a small purple one, identical to the one he gave to Katherine…
Tyler is way too shocked now. “So you just… fooled her?”
“Yes, I did.” You can almost hear Mason say ‘got a problem?’ too. He stops for a second, they stare at each other. Mason is really pissed, he has a lot of important things to do and the day hasn’t stared well at all. Plus it’s full moon.
Tyler is shocked and… scared of him? Yes, he’s scared a little. I mean… he’s totally confused about that dream and he’s still traumatized by what just happened. And now this.. he can worry for his uncle too. Poor Tyler!
Mason puts the phone in his pocket, takes the gun and goes to the back door then he stops and looks back at Tyler.
“Aren’t you late for the meeting?” He acts like nothing happened at all then leaves. Tyler just… sighs and leaves too.

Yes, tricking Katherine is not easy at all. And Mason Lockwood knows that. But he’s been planning something since… a very long time ago. What is he up to? That’s the big question… and what is this whole cell phone thing about? I know you’re confused, but I promise, you’ll understand everything after season 3 premiere.

Season Finale – First scene

So, I know it’s been months since I posted that trailer… Life got in my way. XD But don’t worry, I’ve been writing like crazy since then. I’m currently writing episode 2 of season 3 and I have a lot of plans for season 3. But more about that later…

Before starting this season finale, let’s recap what happened this season.

Katherine came back and she’s been together with Damon. They are the crazy vampire couple of Mystic Falls. She doesn’t love him though. She wants Stefan. But unlike on the show, she hasn’t shown that directly. She has made both Damon and Elena jealous though. She likes playing games, and she’s very patient. Also, her relationship with Mason Lockwood has been growing and becoming more… interesting. At the beginning of the season, they looked at each other as enemies who must be destroyed. But now, they both have feelings for each other, but they don’t admit it.

Damon has been struggling with his feelings for both Katherine and Elena. I think he’s in love with both. But sometimes he doubts Katherine loves him the same way. In fact, deep down he knows none of them love him as he wants them to. His relationship with Stefan became better, but as I said, Damon is jealous because of Katherine’s AND Elena’s feelings for him.

Alaric and Damon became even closer than the brothers. I love their bromance. Alaric is still dating Jenna, I love them as a couple. Jenna is not kept in the dark like in the show. She knows about vampires… she doesn’t like any of the supernatural world though, and she tries to stay away of it as much as possible (which is not easy with Katherine around).

Elena is constantly Katherine’s target… she loves making her life miserable. They’re telling everyone that Katherine is the long-lost twin. You can imagine the rest…

Tyler has become a werewolf. I’m not following the same rules that are in the shhow about becoming a werewolf. There is no curse to trigger in my story. He has the wolf gene, so after a determined age he goes through his first transformation. Mason has been there for him and he became this father figure. He’s actually taking care of Tyler better than his own father ever did.

Jeremy’s role is becoming very important. I have big plans for him in season 3, so stay tuned.

In the last few episodes the vampires have been working on a plan to kill all the werewolves in town and vice-versa. All of that on Elena’s 18th birthday. Which is why this episode is called “Happy Birthday”. But you’re going to see, nothing happy is happening… at all.

We also saw some flashbacks from Katherine’s human past. We saw her meeting Klaus when she ran away from her wedding and running away from him, having her baby from Sevastian, we saw him get killed and Katherine killing her father a (because she thought he’s the one who killed her lover) and running away with her baby, who was taken away from her. After all that she asked Klaus to turn her.

But what happened to Klaus?

That’s what we are going to find out in the first scene of the season  finale…

It’s a flashback scene. 1300′s, Russia. We’ve come to the last chapter of Katherine’s human past. I’ve shown you that Katherine was in love with Sevastian (who had a brother, Dimitri)  and she got pregnant. Then her happiness was destroyed when Klaus showed up at her forced wedding to someone she didn’t love. He kidnapped her and when she had a chance to escape, her lover was killed and her baby was taken away. All done by her father (at least, that’s what she thinks). After that she lets Klaus turn her, because once you’re a vampire you can shut off the pain. It’s the easiest thing in the world! All you have to do is flip the switch and snap!

Right, Katerina?

Well, she’s just about to find that out….

Katherine is a new-born vampire. She’s fascinated with this ‘new world’ (just like Stefan was when he turned), but she’s trying to hide it.

Klaus approaches her. He looks… well, not hot, but charming. Definitely not ugly. This show has no ugly people! =P But he looks… powerful.

Klaus’ house in the background. The house where he kept Katherine locked and where he manipulated her. Pushed her around, abused her… FED on her. Oh yes, she remembers all of it now…

“Are you ready?” he asks her. They are moving.

“Well, I lost everything I had on my way, so I guess I am.” she says bitterly. Yeah, we get it… Poor Katherine.

“I’m sorry about your baby…” Klaus says. Oh, sure you are… “But you are starting a new life now. With me. You will forget about everything that happened here. I promise you…”

Katherine interrupts him: “How do I walk in the sun?” She’s not bitchy at all, the way she asks that is cute, actually. Innocent. Kind of naive. Not the Katherine we are used to.

“You can’t.” Klaus shrugs.

“But I want to walk in the sun!” now she sounds like a five-year old who demands candy.

“I’m sorry. Everything has its sacrifice.” Note: This phrase will gain extreme importance later.

Katherine pouts. Someone calls Klaus from the house. There are some people there helping them with the moving. Katherine is left alone outside. She’s sad. She doesn’t want to go anywhere. She wants her baby. She doesn’t want to spend eternity with this man who ruined her life. She promised him she would, but she did that only so he would turn her. She was using him. Now the time has come to get rid of him… before it’s too late.

Don’t ask me how exactly it happened. It was a very risky move and she was scared to hell it wouldn’t work. But she was desperate. So, she trapped him inside the house and burned it down. Then she killed everyone else outside. I must say it was shocking though. Did I say naive? I meant badass…

Snow covered with blood. House burning. We see Klaus burning inside too. She hears him screaming. She looks relieved. Then she walks away. It was over.

 

Season Finale teaser trailer

Ok, I have no talent at drawing, I know that. But I hope you still ‘enjoy’ this… unique trailer. LOL. If you are confused, it’s okay. Season Finale will be confusing. But everything will become clear in the first episode of season 3. ;)

Unexpected help

This is the last scene of episode 21. Same night of “A Troublemaker doing a favour?” Read with a lot of attention, some things in this scene may mean more than what they seem… Every word counts!

Lockwood Mansion, living room

Mason Lockwood pours himself a drink. Tyler walks in and look at his uncle surprised. He doesn’t drink much usually.
“Wow. Hard day?” Tyler asks Mason.
“Yeah, could say that. How was yours?” Mason sits on an armchair, holding his drink. He looks at Tyler who’s standing next to the table.
“It sucked.  She didn’t believe me and broke up with me. I guess I learned that listening to your heart can cause you a lot of trouble.” Tyler says bitterly.
“It can, huh?” Mason says and stares into the fireplace then he drinks. Then he looks back at Tyler. “I’m sorry about it.”
“Yeah, me too.” After some moments of silence he sits on the couch and asks his uncle: “So, what’s up? Any woman issues? You know, you do look like you’re having woman issues.”
Mason smiles and raises his eyebrow. “Really? What makes you think that?”
“Well, you have all the symptoms. I’ve been observing you lately, you know. You’re always distracted, seems like you’re on another planet or something.”
Mason laughs at him.
“So is it a woman issue?” Tyler asks.
“No, it’s not…” He goes on, serious now:  ”I’m just worried about tomorrow.”
“Yeah, tomorrow… the big day! Everyone’s worried. But we’ll do it, we’ve tested the plan, nothing’s gonna stop us. Everything will be fine. Your words!” It’s nice to see Tyler actually caring for someone else. I really want him to develop into this direction in the show and to be less of a jerk. He has the potential to be a great character.
Mason nods. “Yeah, I know. It’s just a bad feeling.”
“Well, actually I’m not sure we’re doing the right thing here.” Tyler seems to be afraid of Mason’s reaction to what he has to say.
“What do you mean?” Mason asks.
“I don’t think we should kill them.” Tyler says seriously, which makes Mason even more tense. “You say they are killers, but if we do this… then we won’t be any different from them.” Damn you, Tyler. You have to change your mind in the last minute, don’t you? “Just because historically we are rivals… and because our ancestors killed them, it doesn’t mean we should do the same.”
“I agree with you. Now it’s different. Today is different. We are not our ancestors and we are not dealing with the same vampires.” Mason says and gets up then walks to the table. He thinks of Katherine and continues. “But we don’t have a choice. These vampires kill for pleasure. Human life doesn’t mean anything to them. So… take it as protecting our town and our family.” As Tyler doesn’t seem much more convinced he adds: “They need to die. Or things will get only worse.” He turns to the table after that, puts the drink down and starts organizing some papers on it. Then the doorbell rings.
“Who could that be?” Tyler asks surprised.
Mason puts everything back down on the table and goes to see who the visitor is. In the meantime Tyler takes a look at those papers: some of them are layouts of a room which is not familiar to him, he has never seen it at their meetings about ’vampire-killing’. Others are some kind of instructions for something, but he didn’t have enough time to figure out what for.
Mason opens the door and says: “Jeremy! What are you doing here?”
Jeremy looks very tense. “I’m sorry, I know it’s late. But I need to talk to Tyler. And to you, actually.”
Mason was not expecting him at all. “Yeah, sure, come on in.” he finally says and Jeremy enters. They go into the living room when Tyler was about to examine better one of the papers on the table. He’s also surprised to see Jeremy.
“Hey, man. What’s up?” Tyler asks him. Mason quickly goes back to the table and takes all his papers off.
“I know about your plan.” Jeremy says.
“What are you talking about?” Yeah, it’s supposed to be a secret…
“I know you’re planning on killing the vampires tomorrow.” Jeremy answers. “And I want to help.”
Mason stops and looks at him. “how the hell did he find out?” he asks himself. Tyler is confused. “You mean… you know that we want to kill the Salvatores… and that Katherine chick.. and the others.” That Katherine chick. Oh, Tyler, you’re so lucky she didn’t hear that.
“Yes.”
“But…”
“Look.” Jeremy interrupts him. “I know everything.” Then he looks at Mason. “And I want to help.”
Intense Jeremy/Mason eye-contact.

The end of episode 21.

What made Jeremy make that decision? How much does he really know? What happened in his room with Katherine earlier? Only season 3 will tell.

A Troublemaker doing a favour?

This scene is five days after ‘Secrets Revealed’ (but still in episode 21). I don’t know what the sheriff has done (she said she’s gonna attack Damon, Stefan and Katherine), but I think she gave up, because she realized Mason was right. It’s not that easy to kill them. So, Stefan, Damon and Katherine still don’t know about Elena’s betrayal. She hasn’t told them, which is surprising on one hand, but understandable on the other hand.

Stefan arrives at Elena’s house. He’s about to knock when she opens the door.
“Hey.” Stefan says. Elena comes out and closes the door. Then she says: “Hi, Stefan.” She looks sad and nervous which makes Stefan worried. “What’s wrong?”
“We need to talk.” Elena says. Then she walks off the porch. Stefan follows her. They walk around the house silently, Stefan waiting for Elena to start what she wants to tell him. Then suddenly Elena stops.
“I’m worried about you, Stefan.” She finally says. “I’m worried about us. I can’t stop thinking about the night Katherine killed Isobel. About what you did… or what you didn’t.”
Stefan sighs. Then he says:  “I thought we discussed this, Elena.”
“So did I, but I was wrong. You do have feelings for her.”
“No, I don’t.”
“Then why did you save her, Stefan? Why didn’t you kill her? You always said that you’d do anything to get rid of her, and yet when you had the chance… you didn’t do it. I can’t understand that.”
Stefan doesn’t know what to say.  He doesn’t really understand it either.
“How could you save her if you don’t feel anything for her?”
“Elena, I know I made a mistake… She saved me from Isobel. She wanted to kill me and Katherine didn’t let that happen. I owed her.”
“Oh, don’t start this, Stefan. This is not an excuse and you know it.”
“Elena…”
“She doesn’t care about anything, Stefan, let alone gratitude. She’s only trying to break us up and I think she’s getting what she wants.”
“Elena, I love you. Don’t do this.”
“You have feelings for her Stefan and you’re denying it. I can’t be with you like this. I’m sorry.” Elena seems very upset now.
“Elena! Nothing’s gonna happen between me and Katherine! You have to trust me!” Stefan raises his voice. He’s mad at this situation.
“She’s manipulating you, Stefan. Because she cares about you…  Yeah, she does and she’s just fooling Damon… She doesn’t deserve him. He needs someone better.”
“Yeah? Someone like you?” Stefan loses control. His jealousy rears up too and  he regrets what he said in the same minute. Elena looks at him disappointed, then turns around and runs into her house. Stefan looks down and sighs deeply.

In the meantime…

Next scene, Bonnie's house

Bonnie puts a cup of tea on the kitchen’s table.  Then she sits down and looks at the person sitting in front of her.
“So… what are you going to do about it?” Bonnie asks in a worried tone.
The other person sighs then says: “I don’t know, Bonnie. What do you think I should do?” It’s Elena. I mean the real Elena.
“I don’t know… if you do tell them what happened at the sheriff’s office it will make Katherine mad.” Bonnie answers. Elena nods.  Bonnie raises her eyebrows. ”But if you don’t… Stefan and Damon could be killed. Is that what you want?”
“No, it’s not. But lately I’ve been thinking… what will it cost to get rid of her? It will never be easy, some sacrifices must be made. I don’t want Stefan and Damon to get hurt, but this could be a chance… to kill Katherine.”
“You know that Damon won’t like the idea, right?”
“Neither will Stefan. I don’t know what’s wrong with him. He’s not the same person anymore, you know. He’s not the Stefan I fell in love with.” Elena is sad about it.
“And Damon?” Bonnie asks.
“What about him? He would be better off without Katherine. She’s just messing with him and will only hurt him.”
Elena drinks some tea and stares at the table. Bonnie looks at her worried. She’s afraid that Elena has more feelings for Damon, but she’s hiding it.
“Okay… well, it’s late. Why don’t you stay here tonight?” Bonnie says and smiles at Elena.
“Okay” Elena smiles back. “I’m gonna call Jenna.”

Next scene, back in Elena's house

Katherine (dressed up like Elena) is standing in front of the stairs, smiling to herself. She is very satisfied with herself and what she’s done. She walks up the stairs and runs into Jenna, who seems to be in a hurry.
“Hey, Elena, listen. Check on Jeremy before you go to sleep, okay? I’m gonna spend the night at Alaric’s.”
“Yeah, sure…” Katherine is kind of confused, but goes on playing Elena. “Why don’t you call him to come over here?” she asks Jenna, who is already in front of the door, looking for the keys in her purse.
“I’m just worried about him, you know. At least Katherine can’t get into his house, so it’s safer for him.”
“Aha…” Katherine says then she crosses her arms. “So.. that’s his plan? He’s going to trap himself in his own house?”
Jenna looks up at her and says: “We’ll figure out something.” She finds the keys. “See you tomorrow then.” When she leaves Katherine goes upstairs. She stands in front of Jeremy’s door wondering what to do. Then she opens it and looks in. Jeremy’s sleeping. She slowly walks in, looks around inside the room then closes the door behind her.

Whatever happens in Jeremy’s room after that will only be revealed in Season 3, sorry. ;)

Elena couldn’t contact Jenna that night. Which is really unfortunate because of what could’ve been resolved if she talked to her. So now Stefan thinks that Elena broke up with him, he’s not going to talk to Elena about it and she will just avoid him because their relationship is cold and she really thinks what Katherine told Stefan.  Elena is disappointed in him and she’s thought of breaking up with him several times. So in a certain way, Katherine the troublemaker, did do her favour.

What’s going to happen next? I have one more scene from episode 21 (the last) then I’m going to post a previous, funny scene (that happened before Isobel’s death). Then, it’s Season Finale. A Huge Season Finale.

Secrets revealed

This is still in episode 21 (one episode before Season Finale) The betrayal begins…

Police station, Sheriff Forbes' office

Mason Lockwood is sitting on top of the table while Liz Forbes pours him a drink. They were discussing the vampire problems in the town when Elena walks in.

“Elena!” The sheriff says. She puts the drink down and turns to Elena who looks quite upset. “Is everything alright?”
“Oh, I’m sorry, Mrs Forbes, I didn’t want to bother you… I can come back later.”she says as she sees Mason, who is perched on the edge of the table.
“No, no, it’s okay, honey. You’re not bothering at all. Take a seat.”
Elena sits down on the chair in front of the table and the sheriff sits next to her in an armchair. Elena is very nervous and doesn’t know how to start…
“There’s something you need to know… I know I should’ve come earlier, I wasted time, but… it was really hard for me. And I don’t know what to do! More people could be killed and I can’t handle that.” She takes a deep breath and continues: “It’s about Katherine. She’s not my sister. She’s a vampire.”
“What? What do you mean? Did someone turn her?” The sheriff is confused.
“No, no. She’s not my sister. She’s my ancestor, it’s complicated.  But she’s been killing all these people and you have to do something to protect others…”
“Oh, my God…” Liz is very shocked now. Mason doesn’t say a word, he’s just observing.
“She won’t stop. She loves messing with people, she’s doesn’t have a… soul!” Elena goes on. “And I don’t know what you can do against her, but… I thought you should know this.”
The sheriff looks at Mason, who is really tense.
“I can’t believe this!” Liz says. She turns back to Elena: “Why? Why is she doing this? And why does she look like you?”
“I don’t know how to explain it, I’m related to her somehow, that’s all I know.” Elena is so nervous she gets up and walks around in the room. “She’s been torturing me all these months.” She’s talking more to herself now than to the sheriff. “I don’t know why she’s here, but… I want her gone. I want her gone more than anything. She thinks that only because she turned them she has the right to do anything!”
“Turned them? Who? Who did she turn?” The sheriff asks.
Elena stops. She couldn’t believe she spilled that out. What is she going to do now?
Liz Forbes gets up and walks to her and holds her hand. “Elena, tell me. Who did she turn?”
Elena doesn’t know what to say. She can’t even look at the sheriff. After a few moments of silence Mason says it:
“Damon and Stefan Salvatore. Long time ago.”
The sheriff turns to him, her face is so white, she seems like she’s about to faint. She sits down. She can’t find the words, but Mason does it for her.
“They’ve been fooling you since they moved back last year.”
“Damon and Stefan…? Is this true?” she asks Elena, who nods. “What… you knew this? You knew it all this time and never said anything!?”
“Liz…”Mason tries to calm her down.
“How could you!?” She gets up angrily. She walks around, trying to calm down. The she asks: “Wait.. how do they walk in the sunlight?” No answer again. She repeats her question: “How do they walk in the sunlight, Elena?” As she doesn’t answer Mason does it again:
“They have magic rings that protect them from burning.”
“Magic rings…? You mean…”
“Yes, there are vampires… and witches.”
“And werewolves.” Elena adds, irritated. Mason gets up from the table and gives her a warning look. She look back at him and continues: “They should all be killed too, they’re too aggressive.”
“What?” the sheriff is devastated by all this. “What do you mean…”
Elena looks at her and interrupts her. “I have to go. But I’m sure Mr Lockwood can answer all of your questions.” She gives him a hostile look then storms out. She’s really pissed at him, she didn’t want to betray Stefan and Damon. But now it’s done… And she doesn’t know what’s next.

After Elena left the sheriff’s office, Liz Forbes attacks Mason.
“How could you do this? How could you hide this… how could you lie to me all this time!? I trusted you! I thought you were helping us!”
“I am helping you! But you don’t understand…”
“What? What do I not understand? That you’ve been fooling me? That you let Damon Salvatore fool me and the whole council? What the hell were you thinking!?” she yells at him.
“I know you are mad at me, but there’s a reason for all of this…”
“No there’s not. There’s no acceptable reason for what you’ve done. They killed all those innocent people, children.. and who knows who else! And the werewolves!? I never heard of them! What is this madness?”
“I don’t know, I don’t know anything about werewolves. And they didn’t do it…”
“What are you talking about? Damon and Stefan and that… Katherine did all this and you knew it!”
“No, Liz, they did not! Listen to me…” he holds her shoulders and looks into her eyes” It wasn’t any of them. I know who killed those people. And there’s nothing you can do about it.”
“Who did it then? Tell me, Mason!”
“I can’t do that.” He turns away from her. He can’t tell anyone.
“Why not?”
He doesn’t answer.
“Well, you’re not giving me a lot of options. Guess I’ll have to take it from here.  We’re gonna attack them tomorrow. We have vervain and…”
“What? No, no, no, you can’t do that tomorrow.”
“How dare you…”
“Listen Liz!” he raises his voice now. “I have a plan. Next week we will haunt them down and we’ll kill them.”
“Next week? Why wait that long, Mason?”
Because of the full moon, when their powers will be at the highest level. But he couldn’t tell her that. He finally says “It’s personal.”
“Personal? Really? You talk like you know how to deal with vampires.”
“Just trust me, please. It’s only one more week. I need you to trust me. “
“I don’t think I can do that anymore. My trust is gone. We’re attacking them tomorrow. That’s my final word.”
“Well, I’m sorry, but I can’t let you do that.” Mason changes his tone now, he’s more aggressive. He really can’t let her screw up his plans. The sheriff doesn’t like it at all.
“So what are you going to do? Lock me up in here like John Gilbert did? Come on, Mason! You’re more human than him.” Ha! The irony…
“You don’t know me that well.” he answers.
“I don’t care anymore. I’m really sorry this had to happen. But you are no longer wanted here or in the council. I think you should leave town.”
Mason walks close to her then he says, almost whispering: “You don’t tell me what to do. Nobody does. And yes, I can deal with vampires, because I know them. You can’t. And if you think you have any chance against them tomorrow, then just go ahead. Do whatever you want, but remember: when you face the consequences, there won’ be anyone there to help you.” We and the sheriff certainly haven’t heard Mason talk like that…ever. It’s quite shocking. The sheriff doesn’t respond. Mason leaves.

Staked

In the second part of episode 21, something unexpected happens: two vampires are killed. One of which was turned by Katherine. And then the sheriff finds something on the crime scene that makes her more confused about the whole situation.

Mason and the sheriff talk (no specific place):

“You said there’s something new.”, he says.
She nods and hands him a piece of white linen with a ‘K’ written on it with blood.  ”It was found next to one of the vampire’s bodies.”
Mason is totally shocked to see that another piece of that linen. He didn’t tell anyone about the one he found next to the council member’s and their families bodies, because he wasn’t sure whether it was Katherine who killed them or not. But now… it finally makes sense to him, he knows exactly what happened, and it doesn’t make him feel any better.
“That’s… weird.” he finally says.
“I don’t know what this means.” says the sheriff, looking at the piece of linen. “Maybe the killer wanted to let us know who they are without letting other vampires find out…? Maybe it’s some kind of a message.”
“A message…” Mason repeats to himself, staring at the piece of linen. Then this thought passes through his head: “oh, my God… how could I be such an idiot to not to think of this before!?” But he says: “I have no idea, Liz.” And before she could say something he quickly walks away, taking the piece of linen with him. Now he has a lot of things to do.

Later, night

Damon, Stefan, Katherine and the other vampires have a meeting in an abandoned house. Damon arrives first, Katherine should’ve already been there though. Stefan is on his way with another vampire.

Damon opens the door and enters the dark house. He turns the lights on (I know, I know, abandoned house with electricity… ? Don’t blame me. It’s Inspiration’s fault). He looks around, the house looks empty. He walks around in the huge and musty living room, observing the dust on the all the old furnitures (yes, furnitures too) and curtains. It has a Gothic air, actually.
He turns around to check out something on the bookshelf, but he almost falls over as he walks into something. He looks at it shocked: it’s the staked body of one of the other vampires.
“What the…?” he gets up just to get hit by someone flying towards him. A vampire holding a stake just attacked him. Damon barely had time to react. All he could do was back up, because the other vampire (who clearly wants to kill him) was stronger than anyone Damon has ever known. It really scares him. Stefan arrives with a blonde vampire, Natalie and they help Damon. It’s three against one, still the three of them can hardly protect themselves. It’s the craziest, fastest vampire fight scene you can imagine. We don’t see the mysterious vampire’s face, who throws Stefan across the room without any effort. He obviously wants to finish Damon off first. He stabs Damon almost in the heart and only just missed, because Stefan got there just in time. Natalie gets bitten when she tries to help Damon! Vampire getting bitten by another one is… way too bad.
Then suddenly the vampire who attacked them stops. He turns his head maybe to sense something, then he rushes out the door. It all happens in less than two seconds. Damon takes the stake out of his chest, Stefan helps him up.
“Are you okay?” Stefan asks Damon.
“No, I’m not okay!” Damon answers with fury.
Then Katherine enters the house. She slowly closes the door and walks towards them and raises her eyebrows as she looks around. Natalie’s hair is covered with her own blood, Damon can hardly breathe, blood is on his shirt. Stefan looks the less injured one, but he has used up almost all his powers too.
“What did I miss?” she asks them.
“We… just met the vampire slayer vampire.” Damon answers angrily.
Katherine looks surprised.
“We almost got killed!” Damon adds, like it wasn’t obvious enough to Katherine. He expected her to show some kind of emotion about the fact they almost got killed, but… she doesn’t. Then she sees the dead vampire at the other side of the room. She doesn’t know what to say. She wasn’t expecting that at all.
“He was strong. Very strong.” Natalie says.
“Which means very old.” Stefan completes.
“How old?” Katherine asks.
“Well, adding our ages… “Damon points at Stefan and Natalie “and taking… 100 off of it, thanks to Stefan’s special rodent generations he’s been eating his whole life… “Stefan raises an eyebrow “I’d say… more than 700. AND I think he’s the one who killed the council members and their whole families too.”
“What did he look like?” Katherine asks, but doesn’t seem to be really interested in the answer.
“Scary.” Natalie says.
“That doesn’t make sense.” Stefan reacts to what Damon said. “Why would a vampire, who kills his enemies, kill other vampires too?”
“I don’t know, ask Katherine. She’s the one with the insane logic.”
“You’re talking like this was my fault.” Katherine says, irritated.
“Well, only if you were here… you could’ve helped us you know.”
“Sorry, had other things to do.” she answers coldly.
“Hey, this will not work if you don’t follow the rules!”
“What rules?”she says, smirking.
Damon looks at her like he’s about to bite her or something.
“You could be next. He’ll try to kill you. Then what?”
“Yeah, right…” Katherine smirks. Damon doesn’t like that reaction, so she adds: “Don’t worry, Damon. The only vampire who has ever been stronger than me was the one who turned me. But I killed him, so…” she sighs then she walks over to him and hugs him. Was it some kind of an apology hug? Or an ‘Im-glad-you’re-alive’ hug? Either way Damon was so surprised he didn’t even hug back for a moment.

After that they discussed the new plans against the werewolves. A lot has changed since three of their group was killed. Katherine seems to be collaborating, but you know her… you can never know what she’s really up to. Or when she’s really up to anything.

In the meantime… major betrayal.
