In his house, Elijah was letting Klaus know of his discoveries and Klaus told him that he was tying some loose ends and by the beginning of the following month he will be in the town. Weirdly Klaus had agreed to not harming Elena's family.

Elijah the next day appeared at her house letting her know that their agreement was agreed by Klaus' side too and he will be coming in a month's time. Until, then he would be sticking in town and watching over her. It didn't go unnoticed how Elena's micro-expression of annoyance flashed by her face but was quickly masked so Elijah won't see, yet he had seen.

A week into the whole countdown of Klaus' arrival Elena broke the news for the sacrifice to her friends and made sure to keep Stefan and Damon in the dark. Enzo and Slater were extra clingy wanting a day by day email which made Elena feel fuzzy inside, she never had people care for her this much.

Unfortunately, missions don't wait and Enzo texted her one night as she was walking home from hanging out with Stefan. She knew that Elijah was watching her, caught a glimpse of him at the Grill and then at the square. Thankfully she could teleport and that's what she did, she teleported from her room to the ARMORY HQ, got dressed and debriefed over the mission.

There was a vampire gang/coven that had managed to produce a drug that gave a high to vampires similar to ecstasy but somehow it found the human market and it had killed a bunch of people around Virginia and Georgia. Yet people still seemed to be able to get supplies, the gang wouldn't stop seeing it sell better when humans purchased it instead of vampires.

Their mission was to dismantle the gang and bring everything from the labs so the ARMORY scientist can fix an antidote to give to trusted hospitals to use like Narcan also known as Naloxone to the victims of OD. The drug's name was Viraspirone shortly called Vira or Irone, depends who you asked.

Enzo put a team of witches, vampires and werewolves undercover as patrons at the club which was the base of export and distribution of the drug, Elena and Anna being two of the witches in this team. Elena was dressed green party dress while her detachable heels could turn into electrifying extendable globs. Hair pulled in a silk lower ponytail and her various necklaces being able to used as choking devices or her pendant one had paralyzing snake venom. Her rings were small cursed blades, cursed by yours truly, and her earrings could be used a small bombs to blow a door apart for quick escape if the need arise. Similar accessories were given to Anna and every member of this team.

Unfortunately their dress code didn't allow for more reliable weapons. Entering the club was ease, she had just be carded by the bouncer and then grab a drink and start dancing as she faked drinking and looked around her getting familiarized with the land.

She watched as random people dressed in hoodies in black, white and grey, slithered through the crowd and gave small pills to people who in trance swallowed it and then handed these people a small roll of cash. Elena thought that now it was her time to get on it so she grabbed the arm of one of those people, the white hoodie guy.

"Can I have one?" She slurred her words trying to play the drunken party girl. The man had a wolfish grin and eyed her.

"Of course, sweetheart! It will be 300 bucks the pill, gotta the money?" The white hoodie asked her and she nodded as she took a roll of cash out of her bra.

"Nice! Have fun, cutie!" The man said excited as she smiled and popped the pill and kept dancing turning around so she won't be seen as she spit it out just as the man moved on from her.

Unfortunately part of it was dissolved by her saliva and Elena knew she was about to be experiencing the effects of it soon. She cursed! She needed to act fast before she became delirious.

She started to pretend to dance across the dance floor while following the retreating hoodies, like it was expected they entered the back of the club where the bathrooms were.

Anna saw her and so did Nathan Kermin, a vampire in their team, and followed her for back up since they had been keeping an eye to her whole interaction. The three agents opened the fourth door near the back exit, a convenient place for big patches of deliveries. They came face to face with a whole packaging operation happening by small kids and preteens who looked to be runaways or homeless maybe even trafficked or kidnapped or missing. That got them hesitant instantly but as the door behind those kids who seemed to not have noticed them being in some sort of trance, opened and the hoodie guys came out without their hoodies of course. They were startled for a moment before the middle guy, the guy who sold Elena the pill, pulled his gun from his waist holder and shot her.

The kids were shaken by the sound and parted like the Red Sea, cowering in the each side of the room, the trance long gone. If Elena wasn't busy ducking she would have seen the black hoodie guy's eyes glowed blue and the haze in the kids' eyes faded and they were able to show true emotions. Show fear.

Anna saw it and decided that was her piece of meat to bound onto, while Elena recognized the guy who shot her and sold her pill, he was one of Liz's men in her V5 squad! Fucker!

Nathan flashed to the grey hoodie guy and slammed him against the concrete and turned to the kids and yelled at them to run. The kids didn't have to be told twice and run screaming. All that commotion was heard and seen by the camera as back in the ARMORY HQ had tapped into the feed and Virginia with her IT department watched the kids and let the stand-by strike team to help contain the kids so they can have medical attention and interrogated then sent home to their parents or foster homes.

The standby strike team the moment they heard about the kids they took off their weapons and stored them in the vans and got ready to help. While more vans were dispatched from HQ containing medical aid and more space.

Elena eyed the white hoodie guy and felt this feeling of anger, he was a police officer, a member of society kids like them and her were meant to feel safe around! And he had sold her drugs and even looked at her in such sinister way it made her skin crawl with disgust!

Why is this happening here too?

She didn't contained her anger and used her magic while using the chaos of kids running screaming and empty the bullets from the gun so when the guy tried to open fire to the kids his gun made the familiar clinking sound. He discarded it and run to grab the children.

"OH YOU WILL NOT!" Elena growl as she rushed and put herself before a small fourteen year old boy trying to help a small blonde girl off the floor and kneed him in the nuts before she grabbed her necklace and tied it around his neck, applying pressure and soon the guy was unconscious.

She turned around to check her teammates and saw Anna being pinned down by the black hoodie guy who had a weird magic power, his eyes glowing blue and Anna was on her knees screaming in pain cupping her ears.

Elena broke her heels and with a jerk they extended to half meter globs and biometric identification their electrifying feature was activated she swung one to his ribs and one in his jugular stopping him from whatever power he was using. The voltage through the globs was enough to sedate an elephant she was told so seeing the guy just look dazed she wondered what he was.

Anna was unconscious and Elena started feeling disoriented as the drug was starting to take its effects, it's only been ten minutes since she had taken it. Nathan was rustling with the guy who looked to be a werewolf so he was of no help at the moment. She was by herself.

Stumbling backwards and missing a few steps she saw the guy laugh at her.

"What are you?" She asked him scared and the guys eyes light up blue and Elena felt it.

Voices in her head started loudly, telling her horrible things, her former parents and everything they called, kids from school and their words...her own mind...everything had turned against her. Then her perception of reality shifted and suddenly she was standing in a field of wheat and turned her head up and saw planes, thousands of them! War sirens echoed and she felt her hands sticky and coated with blood. Looking at her hands she noticed she was standing in a sea of dead bodies, familiar eyes looking up at her empty. Her former family and friends staring back at her accusingly and desperate, she gasped stumbling backwards only to fall on her knees and feel a gun pressing in her left side of her head. Lifting her eyes up she looked into the eyes of Turkish soldier, red mask covering his face but she looked into black eyes full of hatred.

"DO IT!" She yelled at him and soldier fired, she felt the piercing of the bullet through her brain. The pain was excruciating!

She heard a scream and realized it was her own scream. She was back in the room not the field! The pain was dull thud now, standing with shaky legs saw how the guy's eyes stopped glowing and he looked scared of her.

"It didn't work! How?!" He screamed at her and she smiled.

"I don't fear death, you dick!" She answered back smiling as with her hands tried to find her globs but she couldn't find them, just then she saw them being swung by Nathan as he electrocuted the guy's head making him to drop unconscious at last.

Confused she eyed the werewolf to find his head across the room and Nathan bloody.

"You okay?" Nathan asked concerned and Elena realized her own ears and nose were bleeding.

"I'm good-ish. Thank you!" Elena admitted and thanked Nathan who said breathlessly that it was nothing and that they were a team.

They both grabbed Anna's body and slowly walked out of the building to see a bunch of ARMORY vehicles waiting for them. The partygoers inside had no idea what just happened at the back of this club.

Everyone was taken back to HQ and Elena was being checked by a doctor while Enzo was by her side since he had come to check on all his injured agents. The drug dealers who were responsible for it were arrested and detained by the ARMORY which helped ease Elena's worries about them getting out and continuing their work.

Once everyone was checked over, Elena went over to Nathan and thanked him for helping her and Anna. That is when Nathan introduced himself as Nathan Kermin in this life but he knew Elena in their previous life. He introduced himself as Vassilis Evanko, hers, Anna's, Dave's and Finn's best friend. She hadn't forgotten him and she wasn't sure if he had even reincarnated. And she was so fucking glad that he had. With happy cries the reunion happened.

Elena remembered that her Vassilis was a Ukrainian Greek classmate of hers that his mother's career in the Greek Army took him to her first move in Kilkis where she met him and with Spiros (Finn) and Dawn became the three besties, then to Lesvos where they reunited and continued being friends without Dawn, then a year after Elena had left the island and returned back to both of their hometown they reunited once again, since his mum was also from there and his dad's family had also immigrated to the town in the 1997, two years before he was born. And their lives paved symbiotically throughout the following 5 years, lost touch for a year because just he went to serve in the army as it was mandatory. A year later Nathan had reunited with Dawn before he was reunited with Elena during their four years of college and he was to thank for hers and Dawn's reunion. Their college group was Elena (Marilena), Nathan (Vassilis), Dave (Achilles) and Dawn (Anna).

Understandably, Elena felt spent so she had no power reserves to teleport herself home like she would do under other circumstances so Enzo drove her home.

And that was noticed by one of Elijah's spies. Thankfully the spy didn't see Enzo or register what species he was, he just saw Elena being dropped off by a black SUV with no plates.

Coming down from the high of that pill was hell because her sleep was disturbed by anxious feelings and limps, turning around like a lamb on the roaster on Greek Easter. Finn watched her fitful sleep with so much concern and fear. The next morning she had a fever so Jenna didn't send her to school. And Elijah paid her a visit asking her what she was doing being dropped off by a sketchy SUV.

"I was at a friend's house and her dad drop me off, nothing sketchy, Elijah...and she was coming out of a flu which I think I got now." Elena said tiredly as she rested her throbbing head against the doorframe while talking to Elijah. She refused to invite him in saying that it was for the best, while Elijah argued that it was for the best for him to be invited in, in case of needing assistance.

Stefan also dropped by a few hours later and he was invited in and she played the sick card there too because she felt sick. The next day she felt a lot better so she went back to school and she saw Anna too through the halls and even saw Nathan who nodded at her too in the halls, both her and Anna looked to be a bit sicker than Nathan and that pissed her off because the lucky bastard was a vampire and had recovered faster than them.

"My little cousin who's been staying with us is sick so I am too..." Anna said to Elena as they walked to Chemistry along with Nathan who chuckled.

"Wimps!" Nathan joked and Anna with Elena head slapped him causing him to laugh.

That interaction was seen by Stefan who frowned and Elijah's spies and the retelling of the spy made Elijah frown in confusion. How did dear Elena found herself surrounded by vampires and witches?

What do you think of this chapter? What do you think of Elena's choice to keep the Salvatores in the dark about the sacrifice?
