Summary: What if Bonnie had lived? What if things had gone a little differently? What if Damon had died with Katherine, instead of Bonnie? Will they learn to get along, so they can find a way home? What will ensue?666Please respect copyright.PENANAs4Pwkh7WI8

It was a beautiful day, as Damon and Katherine walked side by side, annoying the hell out of each other.666Please respect copyright.PENANANHzPEBiVPU

Once by what looked to be Elena's house, they saw a newspaper on the lawn.666Please respect copyright.PENANAywujjsefoi
They stopped and Katherine picked it up.666Please respect copyright.PENANALYMLYB8JHk
Damon looked at it over her shoulder.666Please respect copyright.PENANAB0ytcWUob2
"October 10, 1994," Katherine read.666Please respect copyright.PENANAazgYFlU4rw
"Either we're in my personal hell, or we're living someone else's hell," he commented.666Please respect copyright.PENANA5P7cruZDm5
"Or you're completely wrong," Katherine added.666Please respect copyright.PENANAz3mtkpkjqE
Not long afterward, they found their way to the Salvatore boarding house.666Please respect copyright.PENANAJjPQKThEcy

Days went by, each being the same day; the same date. It made them bored, so he learned how to make pancakes and she began doing crossword puzzles.666Please respect copyright.PENANA0yOm7utWHL

One day, after an argument, she left him inside a grocery store. Then, when she came back, Damon was in trouble. They had thought that they were the only ones there. Apparently, they were wrong. There was a guy standing in the aisle, all the Bourbon bottles shattered around Damon, Damon on the floor as if he had been vervained, wet from the Bourbon that had fallen on him.666Please respect copyright.PENANAnpNhY5BRq8
Katherine went to stand not far from her elder childe.666Please respect copyright.PENANAKZvOAjMVax
"Am I interrupting something?" she asked, looking at the stranger.666Please respect copyright.PENANATtrZOoKlD9
"As a matter of fact, you are. You're welcome to join us, though."666Please respect copyright.PENANA7pQn7chMko
"Leave him alone," she said in warning, before magically throwing the guy against the shelf. No one messed with him except her.666Please respect copyright.PENANArOfrjDtSK3
666Please respect copyright.PENANAM1s7eOUlM8
666Please respect copyright.PENANAStHD7at1cU
When the guy woke up, he was tied to a wooden chair with chains.666Please respect copyright.PENANAFJhOaJx9es
"Here's what's going to happen. One way or another, you're going to tell us everything we want to know. No lying to us, because we can tell if you're lying. We can do this the easy way or the hard way. Your choice," Katherine told him.666Please respect copyright.PENANARDmmulZEWS
"Who are you? Why are you here?" Damon asked.666Please respect copyright.PENANAKitK7do6FF
"Kai. I've been here a long time. No need for details, but I killed most of my siblings, so my father put me here as punishment. I wasn't born a typical witch, but I can absorb someone else's magic and use it as my own by touch. If I absorb too much, it'll kill the person. Then I'll have the person's magic for my own until it dies out. But enough of me. You're Damon Salvatore and Katherine Pierce. I'm surprised you're working together. You hate each other."666Please respect copyright.PENANAP16Gml65PQ
Not taking the bait, she just simply asked Kai, "Do you know how to get the hell out of here?"666Please respect copyright.PENANAlKNLhSv90B
"Yes," he replied.666Please respect copyright.PENANAy1OUTYcD3x
"How?" Damon inquired.666Please respect copyright.PENANAsPSbFWpuzq
"If I tell you, you have to take me with you. But first, if you want to know how to get out of here, you have to let me go," Kai replied.666Please respect copyright.PENANAgLCl7f6sWZ
"No way," Damon answered.666Please respect copyright.PENANAD75HYAmhd0
"Then you're never getting out of here," Kai told him, looking at both of them.666Please respect copyright.PENANAf3Ogbyq1u3
"I hate to say this, but he's right. We won't get out of here without his help. We need him. We've been here for days without a clue on how to get home. I don't like it any better than you do, but it has to be done. He's our ticket out of here," she told Damon.666Please respect copyright.PENANALZGSoHFWfT
"Fine," he replied, seeing her point. Like usual, she was right. Not that he'd ever admit to it outloud or anything.666Please respect copyright.PENANAMTDWo8i7ug
He unchained Kai and Kai went to sit at the table.666Please respect copyright.PENANAktZfvBH8oc
"Now tell us how we get out of here," Katherine demanded of Kai.666Please respect copyright.PENANASLAY6t5fqU
"First we use this," he said, grabbing something. "It's an ascendant." He looked at Katherine. "Drip some of your blood on it when we're ready to use it." He looked at them both. "Then, once there's an eclipse, we hold the ascendant and it'll take us home."666Please respect copyright.PENANAqzYLiAWzeF
"Sounds good," Katherine commented.666Please respect copyright.PENANAFXsevsnJY7
Damon didn't like working with Kai, but he was willing to do almost anything if it meant that he would be alive and home again.666Please respect copyright.PENANA3Z2dZGkug9
666Please respect copyright.PENANAMrCX7w73eR
666Please respect copyright.PENANAgrPrsVNYy5
The day they were planning to go home, they made a plan. Damon killed Kai, before they went down in the cave and waited for the eclipse.666Please respect copyright.PENANArNo6F0HTW2
When they were in the cave, she dripped her blood on the ascendant and waited, Damon beside her. Then the eclipse came out.666Please respect copyright.PENANAhvYIwDnC6m
Suddenly, Kai arrived with a bow and arrow and shot her with an arrow in her lower stomach.666Please respect copyright.PENANAPuxSxdtga9
"Katherine," her childe said.666Please respect copyright.PENANA6ujFsrcriU
Pain surged through her, but he was there to keep her on her feet.666Please respect copyright.PENANAiTozDai9PM
"You thought you could go without me? You were wrong. Now she's going to die for that mistake," Kai said.666Please respect copyright.PENANAq4gXO76fil
"Burn in hell," Katherine responded.666Please respect copyright.PENANAv3lkYIrUCj
A moment later, they disappeared.666Please respect copyright.PENANAmCtwzyJGgd
As they disappeared, she leaned against Damon.666Please respect copyright.PENANAFoV3eq0w2e
A few minutes later, they were outside the boarding house, home at last.666Please respect copyright.PENANAxw1x1eYwIx
"We did it," she said with a smile.666Please respect copyright.PENANAsdM7myfLAt
They smiled at each other. Then, because of everything they had been through together, and because of the moment, they kissed.666Please respect copyright.PENANAwp5TBPPe0S
A moment later, Katherine pulled away.666Please respect copyright.PENANAweAkdibaor
They looked at each other.666Please respect copyright.PENANAIGk2iFHigb
A moment later, everything went black for her.666Please respect copyright.PENANARuH9aH8c03
With vampire reflexes, he caught her from hitting the ground and gently layed her down on her back on the ground. He then pulled her gently into his arms, before biting his wrist and putting it to her lips, making his blood go down her throat to heal her, hoping it would work, considering that before she had died and before she had become a Traveler inside Elena and had to be killed, her body had been rejecting vampire blood. He hoped it would work, because he didn't want to watch her die yet again. While in that place with her, he had began to feel something for her. He didn't want her to die.666Please respect copyright.PENANAdwe83ohQ8I
When her wound healed, he gently picked her up in his arms and went inside with her, heading upstairs to his own room.666Please respect copyright.PENANAQFmi5hA47C
666Please respect copyright.PENANA53YoPuyEsn
666Please respect copyright.PENANACIdEa0tgbg
Once in his room, he gently layed her down in his bed and sat on her bedside, waiting for her to come to.666Please respect copyright.PENANAJw7KKicGos
As he waited, he thought of something she had said a few years ago. Considering he didn't hate her anymore, she had been right. "Love; hate; such a fine line."666Please respect copyright.PENANA9mdYEIyp4K
666Please respect copyright.PENANApdFuw6pRkI
666Please respect copyright.PENANAOF2pRrVSjg
An hour later, she came to, clearly back to normal.666Please respect copyright.PENANAW4qAWMUMdZ
They smiled at each other and shared a very passionate, lust-filled kiss.
