I was sat at the bar in the Mystic Grill this morning. Jeremy had called and asked if I would come over to talk. He's freaked out because he has holes in his memory, so he knows he's been compelled, and since Klaus is away in Italy I decided Jeremy needed to know what has been going on. No one deserved to have their mind messed with like that and I am completely furious with Klaus for doing it. I haven't really spoken to him, and Elijah has been mediating because whenever he tried to talk to me I just tossed him away with my magic.

"So you're telling me that I was at Klaus's mansion yesterday?" Jeremy moved around the restaurant and collected some dishes.

"Yeah. He compelled you to forget, I am so angry at him. I tried to hard to get you out Jer" Jeremy sighed and placed the tub full of dishes on the bar before pulling me into a hug.

"I know, thanks Jamie. At least I have someone watching out for me. Jenna cant do much given that she's human and has been compelled out of town and still hasn't got over Ric's death and Elena hasn't really thought about anyone but herself. Look let me put these dishes in the back and then I'll get you a drink so you can tell me everything" I nodded at him so taking that as his cue he shuffled off, grabbing the tub of dishes on his way past. It was quiet for a while until Matt walked in and looked at me confused.

"Jamie? How come you're here?" I waved at Matt before getting up from my seat at the bar.

"Jeremy invited me here. He wanted to talk to me about something" I looked around and noticed that it was a little too quiet for my liking.

"Well he needs to hurry up cause we gotta open" I smiled at Matt before I started helping him get everything ready. As we are pulling chairs off the table April Young comes in and starts asking Matt about Rebekah, I tensed before quickly continuing with pulling chairs off tables. They didn't need to know that Rebekah was daggered because of Klaus's paranoia. Just then the door that Jeremy went through opens, I turn around and come face to face with Jeremy being held hostage by Connor.

"Trust me, that's the least of your problems" Connors comment was directed towards April.

"You don't want to do this Connor" the hunter snapped his head in my direction and glared over at me.

"Oh I do, and trust me witch, if you get in my way, I'll kill him" I glanced over at Jeremy, who gave a slight head nod. Once Connor's back was turned to me I uttered a quick protection spell on the humans in the building. "Get over here Jamie, I want you where I can see you" I stayed stood in my spot, there was no way I was going to give him the advantage.

"I'll stay right here; I can keep any eye on you and the teenagers then. Remember what I said Connor, do not mistake my kindness for weakness, you hurt anyone of these kids, and I will become the creature that nightmares are made of" Connor glared at me, slight fear flashing in his eyes for a second before he turned back to the three teens. Obviously not wanting to pick a fight with me because he knows that he wouldn't win, he started trying to bully the teenagers.

"Sit down. Sit down!" Connor shouted at the three, Jeremy and Matt looked over at me as I nodded, silently telling them to do as he says and keep the attention off me whilst I figure a way out for all of us. I stayed still but let my eyes wander around the room trying to figure out an escape. Whilst his back was turned I quickly text Elijah, Klaus and Damon to let them know the situation I had currently found myself in. "Gilbert give me your cell phone" Jeremy looked helpless, and I couldn't blame him.

"At least let April go. She has nothing to do with this" Jeremy passed Connor his cell phone.

"She has everything to so with this. Her and her father, plus she and I have history" I scoffed a little at Connor.

"What are you talking about? I've never seen you before in my life" I cringed internally; April was the one he nearly killed at her own fathers funeral.

"You kids need to get some vervain. And don't just wear it on a bracelet where anyone can take it off. Maybe then you'd remember our conversation at the hybrids yesterday" Jeremy looked towards Matt but didn't say anything else.

"Would someone please tell me what he is talking about?" Sighing I decided to wander over to the teenagers and stand behind them.

"Vampires hen. He's talking about vampires; they have the ability to compel and make you forget things" April looked frightened before looking back at Connor.

"If you know so much then you know our friends are going to come for us. Plus the two very angry original vampires that will do anything to get Jamie out of here safely" Matt pointed over at me.

"Oh I'm counting on it and every vampire that comes for you is another I get to kill. And as for the originals, there is only one currently in Mystic Falls and he has no idea" I sniggered a little at Connor's unwavering confidence.

"I wouldn't be so sure he doesn't know as do the other two soulmates of mine" I flashed a sarcastic smile before Connor continued.

"Who should I text first? Damon Salvatore? His brother Stefan? Tyler Lockwood? Nah all of the above" he placed Jeremy's phone on the table after sending the text and stabbed it with a hunting knife. I watched carefully as I remained standing behind the teenagers, if he tried anything else, I'll kill him. The four of us watched as Connor started to put werewolf toxin into a jar and then as he started to rig up the explosive contraption in case anyone came through the door. I had to admit I was a little impressed, I would probably be more impressed if he wasn't trying to kill people I care about, but I'm still impressed.

"So what's the point in all of this Connor? Why take the kids hostage?" Connor glanced over at me before continuing with what he was doing.

"Because there are people that would die to save them" I rolled my eyes as I started to pace.

"Let them go Connor, you'd have enough leverage with me. If you wont let them all go then at least let April go. She's innocent in all of this" Connor just shook his head at me and told me to shut up. Jeremy stood up and walked over to him.

"You said we had a conversation yesterday" I blocked out Jeremy and Connors conversation as my mind started to work overtime. I was thinking about how to get them out when I remembered Ric telling me about the tunnels that run under Mystic Falls. Just then Connor started shouting for Matt and April to get in the back, I'm just hoping that Matt is smart enough to figure out that there's tunnels underneath here he could access.

We were standing around in silence, Jeremy had moved to stand beside me and away from Connor. Connor wasn't too bothered by this and still carried on setting up his traps when the phone rang from beside me. Jeremy went to answer it when his wrist was grabbed by Connor to stop him, Connor answered the phone. "We're closed" I looked over at Jeremy who mouthed 'Stefan I think', I nodded and listened to Connors conversation before he slammed the phone down hard, effectively breaking it and threw it off the bar. We watched in silence as he finished setting up his werewolf venom bomb, Jeremy eyed the stake that wasn't too far away and moved towards it. "You may be a potential hunter, but if you make one move, I'll break all twenty-seven bones in your hand" I scoffed at the hunter as Jeremy came and stood beside me again. Using my magic I made the stake fly into my hand before giving him a smug smile.

"You told us not to make a move. Technically I didn't" Connor's glare turned hard as he marched over and snatched the stake off me.

"They're not all bad you know. Some of them, they're my friends" I grabbed Jeremys hand in silent support.

"Your friends huh? Yeah, I had a friend like that once. She got turned by a vampire I was hunting. He thought it would be ironic" Jeremys eyes softened but I just rolled mine.

"What happened to her?"

"I didn't want to hurt her. She promised she would keep it under control, but....a vampire is like a loaded gun. Eventually it's going to go off. That's how I got this" he pointed to a pat of his arm where I assume part of the tattoo was.

"So you killed your own friend?"

"Listen if your going to be like me, you need to understand. Vampires kill humans, hunters kill vampires" just then we all heard a noise coming from the doorway, "we have company" Connor pulled me and Jeremy down to the ground, turned the lights of and started to play some really loud music. I placed my hands over my head as I heard the door open, I knew it was inevitable, who ever just came through that door had just activated the bomb, I was just hoping it wasn't one of my soulmates. Suddenly the explosion happened causing me to scream from panic. Connor stood up and shot at the person with a gun, the only sound then was the thud as a body dropped to the floor. I start to stand up and move behind the bar to pour myself a drink, probably not the best time but my mind was beginning to fog, and I needed to clear it, just then Stefan walks into the bar and Connor grabs Jeremy and starts shooting at Stefan as he speeds across the bar and tackles me, so I don't end up shot.

"Connor you don't have to do this" just then I hear a click and what sounds like a bomb charging up. I close my eyes and feel my magic flare around me, my ancestors are here.

"Jamie, I'm scared" Jeremy's voice broke my heart, so raising my hands in the air so Connor didn't shoot me I stood up, looking around I noticed my ancestors presence, but they hadn't made themselves known yet.

"Connor let him go. He's just a kid" I started to make slow steps towards Jeremy, Connor obviously not thinking I am much of a threat lets me. Just before I reach Jeremy, Elena bursts through the door making me halt my steps. I watched as Elena begged for him to spare Jeremy, but this just gave Connor exactly what he wanted as he threatened to shoot Jeremy in front of Elena just to get Stefan to come out, which he did and once Connors back was turned Elena rushed at him, I ran towards Jeremy but wasn't quite quick enough as the gun had gone off and hit Jeremy in the stomach, this was when my ancestors made their appearance. I didn't pay them much mind as I quickly stepped onto the pressure plate just before Jeremy fell off and into Elena's arms. The siblings looked up at me with wide eyes and I flashed them a sad smile. Chances are I wasn't getting out of this alive. Pulling out my phone I quickly dialled Elijah.

"Darling?"

"Hey Eli, let me just add Nik to the call" I quickly added Klaus and he didn't take too long to answer, I tried to add Damon but he wasn't picking up.

"Sweetheart?"

"Hey lovelies, so I needed to call and let you know that Jeremy is safe".

"That's great to know love, but what about you?" I sniffled a little as tears began to run down my face.

"Well that's the thing. Jeremy was shoved onto a bomb that was triggered by a pressure plate. He ended up getting shot, he was going to fall off the pressure plate and then we all would've been goners so I may have stepped on it to stop the bomb going off" there was silence for a minute.

"I'm on my way darling, just hang on" Elijah quickly hung up leaving me and Klaus on the phone.

"You'll stay on the phone to me wont you Nik? If this is really it for me I don't want to be lonely" Elena had taken Jeremy to safety by this point, and I was alone in the destroyed bar.

"I'll always be here Jamie. I love you".

"I love you too. Always and forever right?"

"Always and Forever".

"I'm not so scared anymore Nik" I heard Klaus sniffle from the phone, tears haven't stopped falling down my face at this point. My ancestors surround me, I knew there wasn't much they could do. Magic had it's limitations against things that weren't magical, mundane things couldn't really be affected by magic so much. I smiled at my mother, and she smiled back at me as her eyes held so much emotion, just then Elijah appeared. "Hey Nik, Eli is here, so I'm going to let you go okay? I love-"

"Tell me you love me when you get out of there, I'll be expecting a call soon" then the line went dead. I placed my phone back in my pocket before looking at Elijah.

"I need you to listen to me carefully. I am going to speed at you and drag us both behind a table to shield us from that bomb. When I do, don't resist, as soon as my arms wrap around you, go limp" I nodded at Elijah as my ancestors stood in front of a table, Elijah taking that as his cue sped towards me, as I felt his arms wrap around me I let myself go limp, just like he asked as he pulled up behind a table. Not even a second later the bomb went off, I screamed again and waited for the shrapnel to hit but opened my eyes when I realised nothing had happened to us. As I slowly climbed out from behind the table I saw my ancestors chanting, casting an invisible shield that stopped anything from hitting us. Smiling gratefully at my mum, Elijah picked me up and sped me home. As we were walking up to the house Elijah gently set me back on my feet as we saw Jeremy sitting on the front steps.

"Jer?" Jeremy looked up before running at me and pulling me into a hug.

"I was so worried; I wanted to stay and make sure you were okay, but Elena pulled me away and told me you were as good as dead" I hugged him back and held him a little tighter.

"Did you really think Elijah would of left me there? As soon as I saw you were gone I called him and Nik. Damon's phone wouldn't ring so.." Jeremy didn't say anything in reply just gave me a gentle squeeze before stepping back.

"Stefan had knocked Damon out with vervain. Elena took off after them when she heard about me being compelled yesterday. Jamie you need to know something, the hunters mark has appeared on my hand" I looked up at Jeremy in shock before looking at Elijah.

"What do you mean? The only way it can show up is if the hunter has died" Elijah informed us both and at the precises moment my phone rang.

"Damon?"

"Angel? Thank God you're okay, I had to call as soon as I was told that you stepped on that bomb. I've been loosing my mind since I heard it explode".

"Damon, I'm okay. Where are you?"

"Behind you" I jumped at Damon's voice that came from right behind me and span around to look at him. He quickly wrapped his arms around me and kissed every inch of my face making me giggle.

"Alright, I need to phone Nik. I promised I would as soon as I got out" the three males nodded and walked a little bit away to give me some privacy. "Hey Nik".

"Sweetheart, I am so glad to hear your voice".

"Elijah got there in time Nik, I'm okay. Now when are you coming home? I miss you".

"I'm just about to board my plane, I will be home soon sweetheart. I love you".

"I love you too Nik" the line went dead, and I wandered over to my two soulmates and Jeremy.

"I need to nip to the boarding house to talk to my idiot brother and drop Jeremy off at home. I'll come back later okay?" I nodded at Damon and gave him a peck on the lips, "I love you Angel".

"I love you too boo" I took Elijah's hand as we walked into the house, all I had the mental capacity for tonight was a hot bath, a stiff drink and to be with my soulmates.
