"What's wrong with me?" Jenna, my mom asks me, confused.

"Do you remember what happened, mom?" I ask.

"Elena called me. She was so scared. Oh, ah, I should have realized that it wasn't her. The second I walked out of the house, someone made me fall to the floor or something a witch." Jenna explains.

"Are you sure it wasn't Klaus?" Elena asks and Jenna shrugs.

"It wasn't. I've been with him all day other than Katherine. Klaus did give her vampire blood though and I watched Katherine call her."

"What are you saying?" My mom asks. "I'm a vampire?" She asks. "What's happening?" My mom, Jenna panicked.

"We're at the quarry. He brought us here. Klaus turned you into a vampire and compelled you to forget everything. I'm going to do everything to get you out of here. I'll try again." I say.

Greta uses her magic to throw Elena away from us, than me away from Jenna. She put rings of fire around me, Elena and Jenna individually.

"Greta, please let her go!" I say.

"Klaus chose her." Greta responds.

"To torture me. It's what he does. He wants to see me vulnerable and weak but you can't take this out on her." I say.

"It's not me. It's Klaus." Greta says putting the ring of fire around Jenna now.

"No!" I shout, cause there's no way of saving her.

"How are you feeling?" Elena asks Jenna.

"I feel like myself... only not. Everything is brighter. The fires hotter. Part of me is terrified, but there's another part of me that doesn't want to feel anything." Jenna explains.

"Vampires can turn off the part that's human. That's the part that hurts." Elena explains.

"I'm gonna die, aren't I?" Jenna starts tearing up.

"Mom, I'm not going to let that happen. I will do everything to stop that from happening." I say and Jules comes out and a ring of fire goes around her.

"Greta, witches are suppose to maintain the balance in Nature. It's your duty to them to keep this curse sealed." Elena says.

"My duty is to Klaus!" Greta shouts. "The new order."

"Glad to know I still have a dance partner. Hello, my lovelies. Are we ready?" Klaus asks us and I was panicking in my head. We know Elena's coming back, but we don't know about me and my mom has 0% chance on surviving.

Greta starts chanting and klaus walks over to us.

"I know you and Tyler are close." Jules says to me. "Everything I did... I was just trying to help Tyler. I didn't want him to be alone." Jules tells me and I nod.

Jules' ring of fire disappears, meaning Klaus is going to kill her. Jules tries to attack Klaus, but Klaus ripped out her heart in less than 4 seconds.

He goes back up by Greta as she's chanting.

"The day that the lawyers called to tell me that I was going to become your guardian, you know what my first thought was?" Jenna asks Elena. "Isn't there someone else who can do this?"

"Jenna, there was no one else who could have gotten me and Jeremy through all of that." Elena tells Jenna.

"And Ashley, when I gave birth to you, it was the best thing that happened in my life. Even if Mason looked after you—"

"Mom, he didn't raise me. After you came back you made sure I was healthy, caring, respectful, and you took care of me perfectly."

"And I'm sorry—"

"Ashley, no. It's okay, it was impossible for us all to get out of this mess, including me. Promise me one thing, just one thing."

"Anything, I promise." I say, as tears fall down my face.

"I got pregnant with you when I was in high-school, my teen years, even though everything ended out perfectly, the actual pregnancy part was the worst. Promise me you won't do what I did. Have your epic love, but don't get pregnant when you are a teen. Wait— you're not going to be—"

"Mom, I'll be alive. I'll survive to promise you i won't be a teen mom."

"Jenna, being a vampire intensifies your guilt. But it also makes you stronger and faster. You can fight back. Me and Ash are gonna get through this. We will be ok. I need you to believe that. But when you get the chance... run." Elena says and Jenna nods.

"Hello, Jenna." Klaus walks up to her circle.

"Let her go." I say and he just chuckles.

"You already tried this, and failed." Klaus responds

"She didn't do anything—" I walk close to the run of the circle and the fire intensified.

"Careful." Klaus says in a non-caring voice. "Well, well. Don't recall you being on the guest list." Klaus turns around and we all see Stefan.

"I'm here to talk." Stefan says and Klaus goes up to where Stefan is, but we can't hear them.

—

Jenna found out that Stefan wanted to replace her in the ritual. But, Klaus disagreed and stabbed Stefan with a wooden stake.

"I have to do something. I can't, I just can't." I pace back and forth, panicking.

"I think it's a little too late for that, love." Klaus says as Jenna's circle lowers.

"It's all right, Ashley. I know what I have to do." Jenna runs and bites the witch, Greta, but Klaus is obviously way stronger than her and stakes her in the lower back.

"Mom!" I shout, terrified. "Mom, turn it off. You won't be scared anymore." I shout but before she can Klaus stakes her in the heart.

"No! Mom!" I screamed like I was the one being killed. I just watched my mom die right in front of me. Tears were running down my face constantly. "No, mom." I sob.

It has been a while. At this point, I was hyperventilating.

"Ash, you need to breathe, or you'll die before you need to." Elena says.

"She's dead. I had to watch my own mother die." I cry out. "And now I'm gonna die."

"No your not." Elena whispers. "It'll work." Elena says and I shake my head.

"No, it won't."

"Ashley, I promise you it will. You'll wake up on a couch, and I'll be right beside you, holding your hand, ok?" Elena asks, still whispering and I shake my head, still not believing it.

Klaus walks over and my ring of fire lowers. "It's time."Klaus tells me, staring into my eyes, and I just walk.

"I believe you were the huntress, you're nothing like the others." Klaus says because biting into your neck.

Elena's screams were fading, so was the pain... and everything just went dark.

—

Elena wakes up, not a vampire.

"Where's Ashley?" Elena asks.

"She's in the other room." Stefan says.

"Did she wake up?" Elena rushes to you and sees you aren't up yet. "How will we know?"

"We won't know." Damon says, looking down. Elena bends down next to you and holds your hand, like she said she would.

"Come on, Ash." Elena says, squeezing your hand and you gasp, waking up. "Oh my god, Ash are you ok?"

"I feel fine. You're here." I smile at Elena.

"Well, I did promise you." Elena says but tears just started coming down right away. Elena pulls you into a tight hug and you break down.

We all go out to the graveyard for my moms funeral. We were all wearing black and I was wearing my moms necklace.

I walk up to her grave and place down a rose. I look at my necklace and kiss it. "Love you always." I say, tears coming down again.

Everyone else says their goodbyes and we all leave.
