Damon's Daughter//Completed |1|

Do Not Go Gentle

Tonight is the decades dance
Rebekah is making me attend so I rooted through all my boxes of old clothes till I found them
My Roaring 90s Clothing

I stood in front of my mirror
Uncle Stefan left to get Elena
I am meant to meet them there
I smirked as I moved to the side to see my father

"I never thought id see the day where Id be wearing these" I said
My father walked up to me smiling
I fixed my head band as I herd
"I am deeply sorry Salem" Turning around I saw Ester
"Es--" I was cut off by her saying a spell and me dropping to the ground
My spiritual self was still there as she dragged my body away

She takes my body to the Cemetery by the Salvatore Tomb
she props me against the tomb as Alaric comes out and looks surprised and worried that it is me
Ester leaves again and Alaric leaves to go in the darkness
Soon enough Elena and Esther are walking towards the Salvatore tomb
Esther: You'll forgive me for taking you from the dance this evening. That's the burden of being the doppelgänger, I'm afraid. Your blood is a potent binding agent for a witch's spell.
Elena: Just please don't hurt Alaric.
Alaric: She's not hurting me.
Elena: Ric!
"No Elena!" I called out but my voice only echos

Elena moves towards him, but stops when she senses something is different about him
Elena: What's going on? What are you doing with him?
Esther: I'm going to remake him.
Elena: Remake him?
Esther: Make him strong, fast, like my children. Indestructable.
For one final time I'm going to tap into the dark magic I used a thousand years ago.
Like my husband Mikael before him I will make Alaric into a true hunter, a vampire to end all vampires.
Elena: You can't create another Original. What if he turns out to be an even bigger monster than your children?

Esther: He won't now that he has embraced his darkest aspect his hatred for them will become more pure and uncompromising.
In death that hatred will be magnified.
Elena: You don't know that, you don't know anything about him.
Esther: That is where you're wrong. Each time he died with that ring during his brief journey into death I was there on The Other Side.
I spoke to him, I nurtured him knowing that every death brought him closer to his true self.
Vampires took everything from him. Now he's getting his vengeance. Now come along Salem.

As she said that my body rose. My eyes were black deep dark emotionless holes
Walking inside the tomb as Ester followed
Esther is lighting candles and preparing for a spell as My body stood there
Elena: Ric, this isn't what you want. It's not who you are.
Alaric: You don't know who I am, Elena. You only know the weakest parts of me, the man who lost his way befriending vampires
instead of killing them.
Elena: You don't mean that.
Alaric: They're all monsters. The blood of their victims is on my hands. Jenna's blood is on my hands.
Esther: When you are ready.

Elena: No Ric, please don't. Don't do this. I won't help you, I'm not gonna give you my blood, you're gonna have to kill me!
Esther: That won't be necessary.
Esther gestures towards Elena. Elena's hand starts to bleed.
Esther holds Elenas wrist so her blood pours into the bowl
Esther: Drink. And let it be done.
Elena: No Ric please, don't.. No!
Alaric drinks the blood in the bowl and puts it down.

Alaric: Is it finished?
Esther: Not just yet.
Esther stakes Alaric with the white oak stake
Elena: No!
Elena pulled the white oak stake out of Alaric.
Esther: He'll wake soon. When he does he may for a time be his old self. If so you can say your goodbyes before his transition is complete.
Elena: You said you wanted to undo the evil that you created, but this... This is just as evil!
Esther: Alaric will never be what my children became. I have granted him enough power to complete his task.
Then when the time is right, he will die.
Elena: How, if he's immortal?
Esther: All you need to know is that when this is over we will have rid the earth of vampires once and for all.

Elena: Yeah, but you'll be killing the good along with the bad, you're no better than Klaus!
Esther: Am I not? I desire a world where you and your loved ones will not suffer at the hands of vampires, like your Aunt Jenna did.
Elena: Don't you dare use Jenna as an excuse for what you've done.
Esther: You may draw comfort knowing that your aunt is not in the place that I was.
She doesn't know the torment of The Other Side. Though made a vampire, she remained pure.
She knows peace. Which is all any of us can hope for.
Esther hears a noise and walks outside. Matt and Jeremy are there pointing a gun and a crossbow at Esther

I stayed by my body and watched as Alaric got up. I stayed next to my body as I herd a noise my father came in and knelled by me, "Salem you can wake up now" He whispered
He caressed my cheek with his hand as Uncle Stefan walked in
"Damon-" He trailed off
"She's ice cold" He said "Her heart isn't beating" He whispered
Uncle Stefan moved a slate of stone from an empty coffin
Daddy picked me up and carried me to it and set me inside
He kissed my head and sighed walking out
Uncle Stefan kissed my temple before moving the slate over the coffin and leaving the tomb

My spirit sighed and went out of the tomb to see my Father
I sat down next to him as Meredith came over
Meredith: I gave him a sedative. He'll fall asleep first. He'll go comfortably.
Damon: Well... I offered to snap his neck, put him out of his misery but... he didn't take me up on it.
Meredith: You seem surprised.
Damon: Well, you just think a guy so used to dying, wouldn't want to drag it out.
Meredith: Well, it was nice of you to give him the option.
Damon: Hmm... apparently my choices have been a little controversial lately.
Meredith: You shouldn't leave him alone in there.
Damon: That's what he wants.
Meredith: Is it really what you think he wants?

Meredith walked away and daddy enters the tomb.
Damon: Aw, Ric.
Alaric: Is this the part where you give me a dream? Rainbows and rolling green hills?
Damon: I was drunk when I told you that.
Alaric: Yeah and I told you I'd use it against you.
Damon: Damn you. Sorry I killed you. Twice.
Alaric: So I have to actually die to get a real apology out of you.
Damon: Drink.

Dad offered Alaric the whiskey bottle.

Alaric: Actually, I've been thinking about cutting back.
Damon: Ha, yeah! This stuff will kill ya.
A tear is streaming down Alarics face.
as He takes a sip from the whiskey bottle.
Damon is sitting next to Alaric who is unconscious and breathing heavily.
Alaric stops breathing.
Damon empties the whiskey bottle, puts it down and exits the tomb.

I watched as Alaric died as I herd something I turned and saw Bonnie entering the tomb
she cuts her hand with the white oak stake and feeds her blood to Alaric.
He wakes up and bites her neck. Alaric gets up, and holds the stake.
