It was a dark night, as Damon walked through what looked to be Mystic Falls, but he appeared to be the only one there. He didn't know where he was, but he wanted to find out. He knew the Other Side didn't exist anymore, so he had to be somewhere else. 630Please respect copyright.PENANAbm8QAYDl8c
When he saw the boarding house, he approached it, happy to have somewhere to stay until he could find a way out of this place. And as soon as he opened the door and walked inside, closing it behind himself, he smelled blood and the scents of human, Katherine, and someone else he couldn't name. 630Please respect copyright.PENANA1ZoqIeI8ig
When he entered his living room, someone was approaching her where she lay injured in front of the couch. Realizing he was an enemy of some sorts, he vamp-sped behind him and snapped his neck, before tossing him out and locking the door. 630Please respect copyright.PENANADxOrNUO6vi
Once back in the living room, he was instantly knelt at her side. 630Please respect copyright.PENANA3zzTApxVlc
"Katherine?" he called to her, as he looked down at her, looking at her injuries. As he did so, he could tell that she was in bad condition. There was a stab wound to her thigh and a knife in her side, with her lower stomach heavily bleeding. She was pale from blood loss, head to the left, facing the couch, eyes barely open to slits. 630Please respect copyright.PENANANFcJ4iTkhb
"Stay with me, Katherine," he said, before flashing off to get what he needed from the bathroom upstairs. 630Please respect copyright.PENANAlyBUd2s2RN
A few moments later, he returned next to her. He would've simply given her his blood, but he didn't know if she could digest it. So, for now, he was playing it safe. 630Please respect copyright.PENANAElOF6KmKr4
A moment later, he had a towel each around her side and thigh, the knife now lying on the floor. He then worked on trying to stop her lower stomach from bleeding with another towel. 630Please respect copyright.PENANASKnIyMydhL
After a few minutes, he finally was able to stop the bleeding and get her wounds taken care of with the first-aid kit. 630Please respect copyright.PENANAcaLLXDSwxF
He gently slid an arm under her legs and another under her head to gently lay her down on the couch. There wasn't much he could really do for her. He wasn't a doctor. All he could do was encourage her to fight and wait for her to wake up now. 630Please respect copyright.PENANAEYacCC8RiF
Once she was on the couch, he sat by her on the couch and rested a gentle hand on the side of her face. 630Please respect copyright.PENANAoA8JdfyeEt
"Katherine, it's me. Can you hear me? I need you to fight and wake up for me. Can you do that? For me?" he called to her, being kind to her for once in a very long time. He needed her to wake up and tell him everything she knew about this place, how to get home, and who that guy was. 630Please respect copyright.PENANAJMBcCkWZru

An hour later, when she finally woke up, she saw that she was no longer on the floor, her injuries had been taken care of, and Damon was seated on the couch by her, looking at her, obviously waiting for her to awaken. 630Please respect copyright.PENANAP5hRYLeCYk
"Damon?" she said weakly, weak from blood loss and Kai draining her when he had tried to steal all of her Traveler magic. 630Please respect copyright.PENANAmmeEnLrhhs
He took his hand away from her face. 630Please respect copyright.PENANA1xBAevADc5
"Finally. You know, as a human, you have very bad luck when it comes to trying to survive," he commented. 630Please respect copyright.PENANAmZLfIkF3I5
Since he was here with her, she realized that he must've recently died. 630Please respect copyright.PENANALTGKteEFna
"So, what are you in for?" she replied, tying to have some humor, even though dying was not funny at all. She wanted to know why her Sweet Damon would be dead already, though. Despite what they had done and tried to do to each other in the past, she always tried to protect and keep him alive. She had always watched out for him, even when he didn't know it. 630Please respect copyright.PENANAodhfpfHpoM
"I sacrificed myself for Mystic Falls to save it from the Travelers and I succeeded."630Please respect copyright.PENANAfPodaneX6j
She was silent, not knowing what to say to that. 630Please respect copyright.PENANAPOCkhDuxYT
"So, who was that guy?" he questioned her. 630Please respect copyright.PENANACAMsRYzYEq
"Kai. He's a Gemini witch. He can steal someone's magic with just a touch, though he wasn't born with any magic of his own. I wouldn't help him get out of here, so he tried to kill me. His father trapped him here to keep him from killing any more of his siblings," she explained to him. 630Please respect copyright.PENANAYuYQemAHkI
"So, what is this place and how do we get the hell out of here?" he asked. 630Please respect copyright.PENANADatq7dGBLr
"It's the 1994 prison world and we have to use your blood and mine and the ascendant to get out of here, but we have to wait for an eclipse."630Please respect copyright.PENANA2N87Jf3itI
"Then let's get the hell out of here."630Please respect copyright.PENANA08RxfuNCm8
"I need to get my strength back though, or we can't go. I'm not strong enough to use what's left of my Traveler magic to get out of here. Kai stole enough that it weakened me."630Please respect copyright.PENANAIvZLcTn5bp
"Then we'll get your strength restored and then get the hell out of here."630Please respect copyright.PENANAkLoYPc41DS
Now that he knew what Kai was capable of and who he was, he wasn't going to leave her here with him. He wouldn't wish it upon his worst enemy.630Please respect copyright.PENANAMpJV4FxYKS

A few days later, after her strength was restored, they left the 1994 prison world and found themeselves back home in Mystic Falls.630Please respect copyright.PENANAJvdf2lYQPd
