                                               Damon POV


I had Maria and her husband tied in my basement to chairs, 

"See I don't understand something, I gave both of you an out, and you still come back to attack my daughter why is that?" I said as I circled them with a fire poker in my hand 

See I never would hit a woman but her husband I can't say the same for, 

"No answer shame looks like I'm gonna have to up my swing," I said smirking 

Stefan walked in with his arms crossed, 

"You sure you wanna be doing this with Sammie up stairs?" Stefan asked 

"Yes, I do I want to know why they enjoy torturing a kid," I said as I swung the poker down on the man's leg making him scream in pain, 

"Besides she won't talk about what happened, hell she won't even leave her room," I said swinging it down again, 

"Then maybe you should try talking to her a little more," Stefan said 

"I tried lets face it, she takes more after her uncle Stefan than daddy dearest," I said smirking back at Stefan

He just rolled his eyes leaving me to take my frustration out on this scum bag, 


                                               Sammie POV


After Damon took me home I went to my room not really wanting to talk about what happened, I just want to forget, 

I brute force of whatever I did, I didn't like it, it felt as if I was taking something away from my mother, 

I was sitting on the window sill one keen close to my chest as the other laid flat, I had gloves on my hands, both my arms were on my knee, 

I kept looking at my hands blankly, 

I am afraid to even touch anyone now, I thought 

I would never forgive myself if I hurt my dad, or Stefan or anybody, hell even though she caused me so much pain, I feel terrible for what I did to my mother, 

I let out a deep sigh then looked out the window, 


                                           Damon POV


I was now getting a drink from a bottle of bourbon, I listen in on Sammie, I hear her sigh and her heart rate spike, 

She is a hand full I'll admit that much, but I wouldn't want it any other way, I've grown so attached to the kid, 

She's just as stubborn as I am, tries to hide her feelings just like me, kid is a splitting image of me that it's scary, 

Then Bonnie and Caroline came walking in, 

"Girls please not today," I said 

"What's wrong?" Bonnie asked 

"Sammie," I said finally looking at them, 

"Did you and her have a fight after you found her?" Caroline said 

"No, ever since we rescued her, she won't come out of her room, and she won't touch any of us," I said 

Bonnie and Caroline looked at each other, 


                                     Sammie POV


I need to go think about this, I thought climbing out of my window to the bottom of the house and started walking to my favorite spot, 

I'm on the edge of the cliff, when I hear crunching of leaves and see Stefan, he looked a little surprised to see me but sat next to me, 

"What are you doing here?" Stefan asked 

I just shrugged, 

"Sammie you can talk to me I promise," He said 

I looked at him he looked concerned 

"Stefan, I did something terrible," I said looking at my hands 

"Sammie what are you talking about, you didn't do anything they are the one's who kidnapped you and beat you," Stefan said 

"Not that, something happened," I said still looking at my hands, 

"What happened?" He asked 

I hesitated, 

"You can trust me," He said 

I nodded, 

"When I touched her wrist.." I said 

"My hands they glowed red, and she started screaming in pain," I said 

"Then all this anger and rage started flowing into me like I was feeling what she was feeling," I said 

"I didn't like it Stefan.... I didn't like it at all," I said looking at my hands, 

"Sammie," He said 

"I mean what would happen if I hurt any of you guys," I said with my head hung, 

"Sammie look at me," Stefan said 

I slowly looked at him, 

"Were gonna figure this out okay," He said 

"You promise?' I asked 

"I promise," He said and smiled
