Nobody POV
Flashback Whitmore college three years ago 2013
Bonnie has just arrived at her dorm, looking depressed about everything that has happened, and walks up the stairs to the room she shared with Alexa and Caroline, where she begins to pack up her things. She pulls photos of herself, Alexa, Caroline, Elena, and the others from the corkboard on the wall before putting Ms. Cuddles and her other belongings into a cardboard box. She's in the middle of carrying one of the boxes toward the door when she sees the letter Damon left for her prior to his desiccation sitting on the dresser against the nearby wall. She sees "BONNIE" written on the front in Damon's handwriting and flips it over to find the Salvatore wax stamp sealing it shut and pauses for a moment before unceremoniously shoving it into the box without opening it

She then heads toward the door, where she sees A.G, E.G., B.B., and C.F. carved into the door frame for Alexa Gilbert, Elena Gilbert, Bonnie Bennett, and Caroline Forbes and smiles sadly at the reminder of her best friends and how far away they are. She walks out the door and down the hallway to take the box to her car, but freezes in her tracks when she sees the shadows of several people entering the dorm. They're clad in the typical black clothing of the Armory agents, and one has just pulled a tranquilizer pistol out of thigh holster. Terrified, Bonnie ducks around the staircase, shoving the box on a nearby table as the agents start to walk up the stairs. Bonnie's breathing becomes rapid until suddenly, Enzo appears behind her and places his hand over her mouth, muffling her scream of fear

Bonnie and Enzo watch as the agents continue to flood up the stairs for a moment before he vamp-speeds them away and pins her to the floor behind the couch

"Shh. Shh" he said

The agents slowly make their way down the stairs and start to search the dorm. When they hear the characteristic *whooshing* noise that indicates a vampire super-speeding away, the agents become alarmed and head toward the couch, but when they look behind it, Bonnie and Enzo have vanished

**************
Enzo finally lets go of Bonnie and she looks at him with wide eyes

"What is going on?" she asked

"Alex told the Armory to bring you in. I'm not gonna let them" he said

She seems surprised and genuinely appreciative of his efforts to save her

"Thank you" she said

He quickly pulls out a syringe and jams it into her arm, injecting her with the anti-magic sedative made from Rayna's blood, and she gasps in surprise

"Oh..." she said

She passes out and goes limp in his arms as he gently whispers to her  "Thank me when this is over, love" he said

Bonnie POV
I just finished packing up my belongings in my room at the psychiatric facility while Enzo watches me with concern

"Do you feel well enough to travel? 'Cause the minute those anti-magic pills wear off, Alex will be able to track you again" he said

I shrug "I feel fine. I don't feel sick at all. I don't understand any of this" I said

He sighs "Ah, love. Come here" he said

He embraces me tightly from behind, and my eyes become wet with tears as I continue to process the news I received

"And I can't believe this is happening" I said

" It's not. This is just a... a series of unfortunate events leading up to your ultimate salvation. I swear it" he said

I sigh and make a pouty face "Do I have to open the door?" I asked
