It was the first time Damon and Bonnie saw each other since Bonnie had ‘cured” Damon.
“Caroline’s not home” Bonnie said, a little distant.
“I’m not here for Caroline” Damon replied. “I need to talk to you”
“Okay” Bonnie frowned. “Come in”
Damon entered the house and Bonnie guided him to the kitchen. Sheriff Forbes wasn’t home.
“What, eh,…what do te need to talk about?” Bonnie asked slightly nervous.
“Do te know a guy named Keith?” Damon asked, as he sat down, following Bonnie’s example.
Bonnie nodded. She didn’t see why she would deny it. “Yeah, I met him in the clinic, why?”
“How much do te know about him?” Damon continued his interrogation.
“I know he saw something horrifying a few years fa and that that’s the reason why he needed help” Bonnie answered slowly. “And he had a friend who’s…different, but she died”
“Did he tell te who that friend was o how she was different?” Damon kept asking.
“No” Bonnie said. “Damon, what are te trying to tell me? If there’s something I need to know, just get it over with. Talking cryptic is only waste of time”
“Katherine was ambushed last night, da Veronica Chambers” Damon started to explain. “Veronica is a cagna who thinks she can decide who gets to live and who doesn’t. She’s convincing people to unisciti her army and she’s going to kill us all”
“What does Keith have to do with that?” Bonnie asked confused.
“I’m getting there” Damon responded. “When Stefan and I went back to get Katherine out, we saw Keith talking to Veronica. I couldn’t hear what they were saying, don’t ask me why, I have no idea. But I compelled Keith to tell me and here come’s the interesting part” Damon waited and caused some kind of dramatic pause. “Keith begged Veronica not to hurt you, because you’re not a witch anymore and you’re human. Veronica agreed, but in exchange for your safety Keith has to extradite Caroline to Veronica”
Bonnie stared upset at Damon. “But…I don’t get it. How does Keith know Veronica?”
“I don’t know yet” Damon answered. “But Derek told me Veronica knew Kelsey and so she knows Kelsey’s mother Rachel and now Stefan’s trying to get Rachel on our side so she can tell us things only she knows”
“I’ll talk to Keith. Maybe, if I confront him, he will tell me the truth” Bonnie suggested.
“You can try, but I wouldn’t count on it” Damon detto not very hopeful. He stood. “I owe te a thank you” he detto slowly. “Your tea, it’s working. Elena’s getting better”
“I’m really glad to hear that” Bonnie responded.
Damon turned around and walked to the front door. He opened and walked outside. There he turned around again.
“What is it?” Bonnie asked.
“Just…be careful, alright?” Damon said, before he turned around and went away.
“Caroline’s not home” Bonnie said, a little distant.

“Just…be careful, alright?” Damon said, before he turned around and went away.
“Bonnie?” Damon shouted. “Bonnie, where are you? Get back here!” But when nothing happened he understood he had to do this himself. He looked up at the chains and started pulling with all his strength. It hurt immensely, but he couldn’t stop. If this pain was necessary to be with Elena, he would go through it.
After a few minutes, that felt like hours, his right hand was liberated. Without hesitating he pulled his left arm and this time it took less time to free himself.
Then everything went black.
Damon opened his eyes and found himself outside on the spot where Bonnies house used to be. He looked at his arms. They had healed. He scribbled up and looked around. He felt different, like he’d been born again. Elena. He had to see Elena. And so he started walking in the direction of the Boarding House. He could sense she was there.
