::Stefan:: Starving Away The Temptation

She sauntered out, pulling Elena firmly though without a lot of force and pushing her towards the doorway. “Go inside. Make sure that we have a clear path to our room.” She stated, knowing that this part of the plan would be tricky. Damon clearly was now all mushy gushy thanks to Sophia though hopefully that would change when the British vampire poofed back to her ghostly existence again however it was Stefan that would be difficult. “Shut up Stef and take your punishment like a man.” She stated before stabbing him in the neck with the vervain needle, knowing that he had wanted a stake and clearly she would not be the one to give it to them.

Looking over at Sophia and Damon she sighed. “Look, I’m glad everything is okay but I could use your help Damon in carrying your “drunk” brother up the stairs. We’ve got a private flight from one of my friends to Virginia but we’ve got to get to the airport tomorrow morning which means we’re going to have to keep him under lock and key until then.” She stated, using air quotes to show “Drunk” was what she was going to play it off as. “Not that I couldn’t carry him easily but it would look a tad weird don’t you think?” She asked, her eyebrow quirked. She was glad that Sophia would be able to help Damon through this but at the same time a pang of loneliness once again filled the now brunette vampire.

She really needed to find someone who was just for her. Not Stefan who was clearly for Elena, not Damon who clearly was not going to get over Sophia anytime soon…she’d make that commitment once she helped her friends get their lives back on track. “Ready?” She asked, hoping that everything would be alright.

That had been yesterday, now however Lexi was ready for part about sixteen of her plan. Luckily everything had gone smoothly. Elena and she had gotten Stefan on the plane. Damon had his humanity back on for the time being and Sophia was handling him. Luckily her pilot friend, Steve, had already been apprised of the situation so he found no surprise whatsoever in the fact that Lexi had showed up with a knocked out vampire and continued to poke him with a needle twice during the flight, adding more vervain for fear that he would wake up.

Upon arriving back in Mystic Falls (at about midnight which was good for them as it meant less people had the chance of seeing them) Lexi immediately had Elena lead her to the old Forbes jail cell which was where the next phase would take place. She then send Elena home, not wanting her to be involved in the set up for fear of what other stunts she would pull.

Once she was there she threw him in the chair that was in the middle of the room, before grabbing the chains that were in the corner of the room from where she had dropped them a few days before hand. She quickly chained his arms down to either side of the chair, straps going over the chains as another level of restraint. The same could be said with his legs, though she made sure to chain his legs a bit tighter, knowing it wouldn’t take much for him to break the legs of the chair. Once that was completed she took another thick strand of chains and chained his chest and back to the chair, making sure there was no way he could get out. The same was done over his thighs, knowing it would be almost impossible for him to escape.

Once she had things set up she sent a text message to Elena letting her know she was more than welcome to come back but to stay out of the actual cell as she didn’t want Stefan alerted to Elena’s presence just yet. Once she put her cell phone away she walked slowly over to Stefan, kicking his leg gently before slapping him upside the head. “Wake up sleepyhead.” She stated with a smirk.

In perhaps a defiant motion, Stefan closed his eyes, threw his head back and threw his arms open. His body making a T shape as if he were a god or a messiah waiting for the people he ruled over to betray him. "Do it, GET IT OVER WITH!" He yelled at Lexi, he wanted it to be over, he wanted to be free. He felt the needle enter his neck, damn her, she couldn't kill him to save her life. He knew what was coming next. He wouldn't give in, do your worst Lexi, you wont break me, not this time.

That was his last thought as his mind went dark and he thought no more.

Stefan nearly woke up a few times, not knowing where he was, all he felt was the vibrations of the what he guessed was a plane and then a needle going into his neck, the contents burning his blood as it entered him. That was all he had to feel to know that he was still alive and that Lexi was taking him back to Mystic Falls, probably to torture him, to get him to turn his emotions back on.

Stefan felt his leg get kicked by Lexi, he opened his eyes finally, groaning groggily. Stefan's vision was a little blurred at first and Lexi's voice sounded distant, as if she were speaking through a filter or was in another room, yet he knew she was standing right in front of him. He felt the chains restraining him and didn't even bothering to struggle, he knew it would do no good.

Finally his vision cleared and Lexi came into focus. "Whats the matter, to much of a wimp to kill me?" Was his first words to Lexi. Stefan's voice was deviant, as deviant as it was in the alleyway when he was last awake and alert. "You never could do it, can you? You are scared, and weak." Stefan spoke to her, staring at her, as if his eyes were going through her to her very soul.

Stefan tugged gently on the chains. Just testing them out. "You did a good job, I am not really surprised, you were always more kinky then you let on." Stefan said with a chuckle, he couldn't help what he was saying to her, it was his defense mechanism in this situation. Stefan knew what was coming next and was not afraid, at least he was determined not to show any fear.

Lexi was a pro at doing stuff like this, at least when it came to Stefan. She knew how to get him back from the brink, but he was far more gone then he had ever been before. "Where's Elena, or let me guess, you don't want her watching you torture her lover." He said, almost spitting Elena's name out of his mouth, as if muttering it was like saying a curse word.

Stefan stared at the door to the Cell, knowing that Elena wasn't to far away, and that she was watching probably waiting for the right time to reveal herself to him, to just add to the torture. He was determained not to give in this time, yet Stefan said that every time, and it never worked out to well for him.

The blonde vampire rolled her eyes at his tone, the smile on her face perfectly friendly at ease. “Don’t give me that Stefan.” She told him. “I know you’re all pissy that I’ve brought you here but don’t act like it’s not justified. How many times have we done this…how many times have you gotten all ripper-y for one reason or another…I’ve gotten you back and then you look at me and say ‘Oh Lexi, I’m sorry. Thank you for helping me’…we’ve done it all before sweetness…do we need to go through the whole conversation over again. If so, I should have brought a tape recorder that way if we ever do it again, I can just play back my part of the conversation.” She told him casually, as if this was just an everyday occurrence.

The blonde snorted when Stefan asked to see Elena. Yeah, she had seen that coming. Elena had originally wanted to be here but she refused, knowing that some of the things Lexi would have to do would be things that Elena couldn't bear to watch. Lexi didn't enjoy torturing Stefan, she hated it in fact and in the days after he returned she would take so many showers to get the blood off of her hands. He didn't know it of course since he would feel even more guilty, but the thought of what she had to do in order to bring him back made her sick, but she did it because she cared about him...and some sacrifices had to be made.

"You really think I'm going to let you guilt Elena into freeing you? I don't think so. Besides, she couldn't free you anyway. The key to those chains isn't even here. No one except me knows where it is...and since she doesn't know...she can't free you. She could come in here and beg me to let you go and I wouldn't. So no, Elena's not coming here. I won't let you hurt her even more than you already have." Her gaze locked with his as she made her words known, refusing to give in. "Now, we can start out the easy way...let's see if you'll answer a few questions before the real fun starts." She told him, a casual grin though her insides twisted.

She wasn’t surprised when he called her a coward. “Awwww, thanks friend. Love you too. Sorry that I don’t want you to die and hurt everyone all over again. You do that well enough when you’re alive, not going to let you do it even more dead. Sorry Steffy.” She stated with a smirk, not feeling the slightest bit offended at his comments.

"From what I understand Klaus compelled you to turn off your humanity...yet after that I don't know what else he said. Did he simply tell you to turn it off...or did he tell you to keep it off until he said so? And just remember, the answers to your questions decide how much you have to take...so answer honestly and carefully."

"Not this time Lexi." Stefan replied to her. Stefan wouldn't give her the satisfaction of knowing that she fixed him yet again. That she saved him again. "You will have to kill me this time Lexi, that or let me go and have my fun." Stefan said to her, he had no plans on giving in to Lexi this time around, then again, he probably said that every time he was put into this position.

Stefan knew Lexi was probably lying about Elena. He knew that she was probably here, just not showing herself right now. Stefan knew that Lexi was gonna try and use Elena to get through to him, so he knew that Elena couldn't be to far away. He wondered why he cared, but he realized he didn't, Elena was weak, and he knew she was his best chance to escape.

"Whatever you say Lexi." Stefan pretended to agree with her on the Elena topic, knowing that it probably wasn't true what Lexi was saying about Elena. Stefan knew the only part that Lexi was probably telling the truth about was the fact that Elena couldn't unlock Stefan and that only Lexi knew where the key was, she was smart like that.

"Why should I answer your questions, your gonna torture me anyways." Stefan replied to her. Stefan would prefer if Lexi just got to the torturing and hopefully the killing already. Stefan was sick and tired of talking about his feelings and just wanted it to end, was that so much to ask?

"Am I not better off dead? How many times has this happened? How many innocent lives would of been spared, how much heart ache would of been forgone if you just killed me back when you met me, huh? 1000's of lives, tons of heartache, yet you let me live?" Stefan said to her truthfully.

"You are weak, you couldn't do the right thing if your life depended on it." Stefan spat the words at her. "You know everyone in this world would just be better off without me. Elena, you, Damon, all of you." Stefan continued, he knew Lexi would do a lot to him, and he wanted to get his peace said to her before it began.

Stefan didn't care. Stefan knew that Lexi was about to try and make his life a living hell, and Stefan wasn't gonna give in as easily this time to Lexi, and he would put Lexi through the ringer, to the test if she wanted to see him with his emotions back on once again. It was Stefan's way of torturing her back, by making her think he was to far gone to be saved.

His eyes narrowed at the mention of Klaus'es compulsion. "What does it matter, Lexi, your gonna torture me anyways, just get it over with." Stefan said to her as bravely as he could. Stefan looked her over, it didn't really matter what Klaus told him, in the end, either way, she was gonna try to get his emotions back on, he didn't want them back on.

He didn't want to feel the guilt, the hate, the fear, the love any more. It was to hard for him. So Stefan simply looked Lexi in the eyes. "Go to hell, Lexi, and take Elena with you." Stefan said to her harshly. If he was going down, he was gonna do out with a fight, and he was gonna take Lexi and Elena with him.

She grinned proudly when Stefan called her a weak and a coward. A lot of women would be offended by that, especially since it was clear that he really meant it. She however was actually proud of that statement. She knew that she could be a bitch when she needed to bed so if him calling her a coward and weak was another way to call her a bitch without actually saying it she was perfectly fine with it. She had worked hard to learn how to be a bitch, however he thought she was being one now? He had no idea what she had planned for him. Sure he had been through this before but she had a tiny secret weapon that she hadn’t had before…and if nothing else worked…she knew this would ensure it would.

She knew it was cruel, what she had planned to do, and she knew he’d most likely be really really really pissed off at her…however he’d get over it, he’d have to. Elena had already agreed to it and they had taken preventative measures to make sure nothing bad actually happened so it would be fine. She wanted to use it as a last resort but realistically she knew they’d most likely have to use their backup plan. Elena was on standby and that was all that mattered at the current time.

Alright, now he was starting to get to her. She wouldn't show it though, knowing that's exactly what he wanted. However he knew that she had always prided herself on helping people when she could. She was a vampire who yes, drank human blood, she didn't kill to get it. She bought blood bags or used donors who knew what was going on. She hadn't killed someone in a long time and she prided herself on that...so for him to say that she would let innocent people die because she wanted to torture him because she got off on it was hurtful. She knew she shouldn't listen to him and she wouldn't...not really. Well, she'd listen but she wouldn't dwell on it..however that didn't stop it from stinging a bit. "You and I both know buddy that I don't like seeing you in pain." She told him, rolling her eyes. "If I thought of another way to get you back I'd definitely do it...unfortunately I'm not an original vampire so I can't compel you. God knows it would make my life a lot easier."

"Haven't you learned yet Stef?" She asked him before taking a syringe that she had placed next to the vervain and pulled some of it into it, then placing the vervain back and heading towards the vampire. "I always win." She told him, sticking the syringe into his arm and inserting the vervain in his system. This was one of the few things that she hated to do because she knew it would hurt like hell and weaken him. Unfortunately he needed to get back on it so that Klaus couldn't compel him again, and this was the only way she could think to do it. Hearing him say that she and Elena could go to hell irked her for Elena’s sake. “Sorry sweet cheeks. Elena is too damn good for hell and as for me? You know damn well I’d run the place in less than a week. Takes the fear out of it.”

Stefan knew he was getting to her, at least a little. Stefan knew that he had to keep pushing to really get to Lexi. "You want to know some of the names of the innocent, sweet little girls that I killed?" Stefan teased her relentlessly, if she were to torture him psychically, then he would torture her mentally.

"You know, the ones you allowed to die because you could not kill me all those years ago?" Stefan said to her, he must of been striking a nerve as she was showing it a little on her face, even if she wouldn't admit it out loud, he knew because he knew Lexi, and he knew when his words were getting to her or not.

"Kate Austen, she was really fun, until I snapped her scrawny little neck. Sarah Williams, she was amazing in bed, until I drained every last ounce of blood from her body and watched as her body went lifeless and limp in my arms. These are just a few of the women who you should have on you conscious." Stefan said to her, really pushing his luck.

"Yeah, Lexi, keep telling yourself that." Stefan replied to her when she told him she always won. Yeah, she always won before, but she was not gonna win this time, no way in hell would Stefan allow her to win this time. Stefan watched as she went over to get the vervain. "Careful, wouldn't want you to break a nail." Stefan said to her with a chuckle as the needle entered his neck.

He gasped loudly in pain as the vervain entered his system. It burned him from within and he soon found himself close to passing out. "I liked you better when you were on your back." Stefan said with a chuckle to hide the pain, she must of given him a small dose, cause it didn't knock him out, she must of wanted him awake.

"You remember, in Italy, in the hotel room, with your clothes off. You are hot though, Lexi, why don't you untie me, and turn your emotions off and have fun with me again, you know you want to." Stefan said to her, teasing her with a chuckle. He hoped Elena was listening in, he hoped she heard him admit to having an affair with Lexi at some point, anything to hurt her.

"What happened to you Lexi? You use to be so much fun, now, you are a drag." Stefan said to her, the vervain really effecting him and he was losing his concentration and he didn't know how long he could keep his wits and keep smack talking her. "Oh, did Elena tell you what I did to her?" Stefan asked suddenly.

"I sank my teeth into her pretty scrawny little neck and I drank hungrily on her blood, it tasted so good Lexi, you really must have a taste some time." Stefan said to her before passing out from the vervain, he hoped she would give him so much that he would never wake up, it was dangerous.

She glared at her best friend as he went down the list of people that he had killed. He wanted to play this game? She could easily tune him out but that’s not what he wanted. He wanted her to be mad, to be disgusted, and she could play it two ways. The first could be simply to ignore him and keep talking herself, something that she was highly good at doing. She loved to talk and most people would say she could talk to a brick wall and it would get so annoyed by her incessant rambling that it would answer her just to shut her up. Actually that was probably Stefan who told her that but whatever. The other way she could play it was to give him the reactions he was looking for.

She liked the first idea better. It was more entertaining for her.
Rambling seemed like the better idea instead of allowing those girls names to fill her head. She knew she’d think about them later and feel guilty but she tried not to do so now, knowing that for a good long while after Stefan got back to normal that he would have the market on guilt cornered and she’d have to deal with that, so her feeling guilty would do nothing but annoy people so she decided to feel guilt later and annoy Stefan now.

It was after all one of her favorite past times.

“Stefan, can you imagine how tired I am?” She asked rhetorically. “I was dead. However I was asked to come back to deal with your ass. Pretty bad when a higher power calls on me to stop one of their champions to come back from the dark side." She told him, not giving away too much but just enough to get his attention. She hadn't told anyone the full story of why The Powers That Be brought her back and would continue to keep most of it to herself until Stefan was him again as she felt like he needed to hear it first...however that didn't mean she wouldn't let bits and pieces slip here and there to grab his attention.

Once the vervain was injected she could see the change in him. It wasn't enough to break the compulsion, no, but it was enough to make him chill out for a few moments instead of working on breaking the chains that he was currently trapped within. She was glad for that because while he was distracted she quickly tightened them, sighing in relief when she realized that they hadn't been close to breaking. She wasn’t worried and knew she could take him...but it only took one distraction for him to bolt and she didn't even want to think about what would happen if he did.

She continued to listen to his comments and rolled her eyes. “Baby, you know damn well I wouldn’t ride you here or now. I prefer sweet compassionate Stefan to jackass Stefan. However you’re right, it was a whole lot of fun. Then again can I tell you a secret?” She asked, knowing she was going to royally piss him off. “Damon was pretty good in bed too.”

"Oh boohoo for you... I died and those bastards brought me back to deal with my wayward best friend. Who cares?" Stefan yelled at her, he really didn't give a damn about Lexi's sob story right now, she was the one that had him chained up after all. And she was the one that had plans to torture him as well, so why should he even listen to her sob story?

Stefan was a bit perturbed that she was ignoring his comments about the women he murdered in cold blood. "There was Mikaela, I didn't have time to get her last name as I brutally raped and drained her dry. Lori Collins, I didn't kill her, I raped her and compelled her to kill her whole family." Stefan said to Lexi, he had to remember all the people he killed.

Stefan had a whole list of them, each of there faces burned in his memory. Stefan could go on forever on this topic and sooner or later, the guilt would become so bad for Lexi that she would hopefully kill him and then hill herself to, or at the very least turn her emotions off and join Stefan. He smirked at the thought of the two going on a killing spree together, sleeping with multiple sex partners including each other.

"Each of their faces frozen in fear in their last horrible moments." Stefan said to her, he knew the names weren't enough to piss her off, but him describing how they died might. Stefan shook his head as clearly Lexi was ignoring his comments, which meant they upset her. He smiled weakly as the vervain was taking a hold of him, not being as talkative as he was before the vervain.

"But that Stefan is so boring, always brooding over everything. I promise you I am much more fun in bed." Stefan said to her with a light chuckle trying to keep his wits. She mentioned that Lexi and Damon slept together. His eyes narrowed slightly at her. Stefan felt something finally, not love or compassion or guilt, but anger that his brother really did sleep with Lexi.

"You'r a grown women, Lexi, you can sleep with whoever the hell you want, even if he is an ass." Stefan said to her, trying to not show his anger, but knew his words were laced with it. Stefan didn't like feeling something right now, and he eternally cursed at himself. Lexi had at least got through to him, and he didn't like it, not one bit.

Stefan knew that anger, though not the most wanted emotion that Lexi wanted, was at least something, so it meant that she was at least starting to win, and it was always anger that she brought out of him first, every time this happened Anger was the first emotional response that Lexi was able to get from him.

She smirked when Stefan sneered at her about higher powers and champions. She knew that would get his attention. Not that she would actually give him any of the information he so craved but at least he had something to focus on for a few moments before he started ranting about being turned back to the 'side of good' so to speak. Granted, she doubted it would help that she wasn't actually going to give him any information but what the hell, it was entertaining if nothing else. Granted his rambling about the women that he had killed, and worse in her opinion, was irking her but she simply ignored it as best as she could.

Though she did plan on talking it through with him later.

She rolled her eyes at Stefan's comment, realizing he truly had no idea how many people were backing her up on this whole thing. "Stefan, honey, you need to listen to me." She told him before producing a wooden stake and twirling it around her fingers idly. She knew that Stefan would understand what the stake was for. She knew from experience that in order to make him feel anything she had to cause him pain. She hated doing it but she had no choice. She also knew that a stake wouldn't be enough so she walked over and grabbed another bottle of vervain, this one slightly bigger. Dipping the stake in vervain she let it sit there for a moment, turning her attention back to her tied up best friend.

"There are a lot of people who want you back...well...the you that people actually like. If Klaus comes after me, we'll deal with that then...however he didn't take you by force Stefan. That's really not his style from what I understand. He bribed you...gave you the cure to save Damon in order for you to go with him. He doesn't have any leverage anymore. So as long as Damon doesn't go and get himself bitten again, Klaus won't touch you...none of us will let him. And you're right, I won't abandon you...I never have before. I won't now." She told him, grabbing the stake out of the vervain and showing it to him.

"And now, I'm going to prove to you that I will do whatever it takes to bring you back...even if that means hurting you." She told him before plunging the vervain soaked wooden stake into his shoulder, groaning at the sizzling sound that it made against his skin. “Now, are you ready to turn your humanity back on…or do I have to go full out on my little torture Stefan plan…because trust me when I say…you won’t like the outcome of it.” She told him, thinking of what she had Elena prepped and ready to do. Granted, she would most likely have to do it anyway because she didn’t trust him, but still…it wasn’t going to be pretty. She quickly sent a text message to the brunette telling her to come here but to stay out of the cell and text her when she got there. She needed to go over the plan with her once more before it went down.

She prayed Stefan would forgive her for this.

Stefan could tell his tactic about mentioning the people he has killed isn't effecting Lexi as much as he had hoped. So he decided to change it up a bit. "Oh Lexi, you may not care about the innocent people I have killed. But what about the ones I haven't gotten to ye?" Stefan asked her, pure malice in his voice in his words, trying to tempt Lexi into letting him go, or kill him.

"Like Matt, I will rip him to shreds. How bout Jeremy and Alaric and Jenna, Elena's only Real family left? I will rip Jenna's head off and drain Alaric and Jeremy dry." Stefan threatened her by hurting basically everyone that Elena cares about. If Elena was listening right now, she would surely be freaking out. Stefan grinned evilly.

"How bout Mariana? She is so sweet, so innocent." Stefan continued, naming people off as they popped into his head. "Bonnie, how sweet would that be, the blood of a witch?" Stefan continued he was really pushing his luck with Lexi now. It was one thing to mention people that Lexi could not save, but the people that she had to protect, that she had to save?

"And Caroline... Oh, she trust's me you know. Imagine the look on her face as I stake her in the heart and watch her die!" Stefan added, finally laughing. Lexi was the one that mentioned all the people that cared about him, so it was her own fault for bringing them up. His smile soon faded as he felt the stake enter his shoulder.

Stefan yelled out loudly. It was the most pain he had been in in a long time. "Lexi... it hurts..." Stefan said, pain in his voice. "Please Lexi, take it out!" He added, before chuckling. "You got to do better then this sweetness to get me turn them back on." He managed to mutter out, even though you could tell he was in a lot of pain from the vervain stake.

Stefan stared at her, he knew this was just the beginning and that Lexi would do a whole lot worse to him. Still he wouldn't be defeated that easily and Lexi knew it, so why she went though the motions was beyond him. "Lexi, I honestly don't give a damn about anyone who cares about me, I don't even care about you and wish you would of just stayed dead." He stated bluntly.

"Klaus is a big boy, I think he'll survive without his lackey baby cakes." She told him flippantly, knowing it would piss him off not only to be called a lackey but also the fact that it was the truth. Sure Klaus may have wanted Stefan but that didn't mean he would screw around with his overall plans in order to get him back. "Then again, maybe you really do like being his toy..." She trailed off suggestively, knowing her next comment would get a rise out of him as well. "Is that why you're so hell bent on keeping your humanity off...has Klaus been naughty in more ways than one Stef? Should I tell Elena that you've uh...switched sides so to speak? I mean we all know Damon would keep her warm at night." She told him, hating the fact that these words were spilling out of her mouth but knowing it was for the best. In order to make him turn on his humanity she had to make him feel, something, anything...and usually anger was the first thing that she could get him to feel.

Pulling the stake out of his shoulder she dipped it back in vervain, allowing it to sit for another moment as her phone went off. Pulling it out of her pocket she saw that Elena was getting close and would be there in five minutes. She sighed in relief before sending the young girl a text message back, making sure she still had what she needed in her back pocket. A text quickly sounded that yes she had remembered and she would text when she got there. Putting her phone away again she figured adding to the anger thing would be best so she smirked. “That was actually Elena, she was texting me to let me know that Damon had asked her to stay in a hotel with him last night.” She replied quickly, lying through her teeth though giving no outward sign that she was not telling the truth. She cringed internally at the thought of Damon and Elena together, not liking the picture that it put in her had at all.

Taking the stake out of the vervain she walked back over, this time perching herself on Stefan’s left knee, running her finger down his neck and down to his chest. To anyone else this would look extremely sexual, but to Lexi it was simply another way to piss off her best friend. “So sweetness, are you ready to let yourself feel yet?” She asked him before taking the stake and plunging it quickly into his right thigh, getting up as she did so he couldn’t react in a way that would hurt her. She left the stake in this time, though her hand was still gripping it. “You know what you have to do and the fun will stop.” She stated in a tone that left no room for anything less than the truth.

His next words made her stop, hearing that he was threatening people she loved was not the way she wanted to go, especially since she knew what would be happening soon. Then his last statement about wishing she was still dead. “Awww, miss you too friend.” She stated flippantly. Her phone going off again forced her to remove her hand from the stake, though leaving it in his thigh still. Elena was there, good. On to Plan B. “Be right back Stef.” She mentioned over her shoulder before turning back towards him, pulling the stake out and walking away, leaving the wound open meaning more vervain would soak in it before it healed.

Closing the door behind her she walked over to the small alcove and nodded to Elena, motioning to keep her voice down and to follow her. Once the two were outside in the daylight she knew they would be far enough to where Stefan couldn’t hear them. “You sure you want to do this?” She asked her, knowing that this was going to be absolutely no fun for any of them involved. Yes. But…I think it might be more effectual if you were the one to do it. I don’t think it would mean to same if I did it…but if you did it it would scare him more…at least I hope.

She heard the brunette’s voice say and the blonde agreed. “Unfortunately I agree, you have the vial right?” She asked and watched as Elena took the vial of blood out of her back pocket. “If it doesn’t work and you feel yourself getting too weak you either drink that or you tell me and I’ll take care of it. This is not something that we are going to chance Elena. Promise me you won’t risk it.” She told her firmly and watched as the young girl nodded. I Promise.

Nodding once more the blonde vampire lead the way back into the jail cell and stepped aside so Elena could see Stefan and he could see her. “I’ve brought someone to play with us Stef.” She told him, hoping that her voice didn’t break. She really didn’t want to have to do this.

Listening to Jeremy and Alaric ramble on about general guy things was about ready to drive her to the nut house. She loved both of them, she truly did, but they were also both going to cause her to drink if they didn’t stop talking about cars and sports and whatever else it was they were talking about and actually include her in the conversation. Okay, so granted they had tried several times to ask her opinion on this and that but honestly, what did she know about cars…or sports for that matter. Nothing, exactly, and yet for some reason they didn’t seem to get that.

A text message going off on her phone gave her the reprieve she needed and she excused herself to go answer it. The text was from Lexi explaining what was going on. She yelled out to Jeremy and Alaric that she had to go and was out the door before they could ask any questions. Luckily she had everything she needed in her purse so she simply walked out the door and got into her car, having known this was coming for days. This wasn’t going to be a pleasant experience for anyone involved but if it got the job done then it was completely worth it.

Pulling around to a secluded parking lot about a quarter of a mile away from her destination she parked her car, grabbed her purse and got out, locking it behind her. Checking to make sure the vial of Lexi’s blood was still in her purse she set off towards the entrance to the Old Forbes Jail Cell. A few texts back and forth between Lexi and she was where she needed to be. Taking a deep breath she started to lean against the concrete wall to try and calm her nerves before realizing exactly what she had on. Granted, it wouldn’t really matter if it was dirty or not after tonight since it would be ruined one way or another but still, no use getting it dirty before she had to. Her pristine white sweater and blue tube top stood out against her olive skin. She loved this outfit and actually had two of the white sweater and several different colors of the tube top. Paired with a pair of flare jeans, and a blue pair of wedges it was cute and classy while still being comfortable.

Unfortunately the wedges weren’t that easy to walk in through a cave entrance as she found out moments later, stumbling quite a few times though never actually falling. Sending a text to Lexi letting her know she was there she waited until the blonde exited before following her. Agreeing to the plan she pulled out the vial of blood to show her that she hadn’t in fact forgotten it. She then pulled out the silver keychain that was actually a locket. It held vervain inside it. Elena had gone without vervain in her system for a few days in preparation for this though she knew she needed to have it on her in order for it to work. It couldn’t be visible so after several ideas that were thrown out just as quickly they came up with the keychain idea. No one would suspect anything about it yet as long as it was on her in some way she would be safe. Hence the reason it was resting in her back pocket.

Following Lexi inside the jail cell she winced at the sight in front of her.

Yeah, this was not at all going to be pretty.

Stefan growled at Lexi as she mentioned Klaus and Stefan's relationship with him. "You know I am straight Lexi, I have proven it to you before." Stefan said with a chuckle. "I want them off cause I am free with them off. I don't have to be worried about hurting people because, well I don't give a damn if I hurt them or not. Not that I have to explain myself to a bitch like you." Stefan said getting defensive.

Stefan would never switch teams, and Lexi knew it, she knew that even suggesting it to him would piss him off. Damn it Lexi, stop making me feel something, even if it is anger. She then took the stake out finally and Stefan gasped as it was removed. She mentioned Elena staying the night with Damon. The only thing it really made Stefan feel was anger towards his brother. "Good, good for her, Damon is a dead man when I finally get out of here." Stefan stated bluntly.

Stefan wanted to rip Damon to shreds right now, thinking that he has been with both Lexi and Elena now, it pissed him off. That was the emotion Lexi was best at bringing out in him, anger. She knew how to anger him more then anyone else, she was an expert at it and boy was Stefan mad right now. If he got out of this alive, he would probably kick Damon's ass for what he has done. And to think things were going so well with the Salvatore Brothers a few days ago.

Suddenly, Lexi sat on his lap. "What you want to go for a ride Lexi?" Stefan teased her, though he knew she didn't want to, he just had to get a jab in before he felt the stake enter his thigh and having Lexi tell him he knew how to make the fun stop. Stefan groaned loudly suppressing his scream, though it wasn't as bad as when she put it in his shoulder, it still sucked. It only got worse as she wiggled it around, as if it was intentional to put him through more pain.

"Are you kidding, Lazy Lexi, I am having to much fun to stop now." Stefan managed to mutter out, using an old nickname he once called her and he knew she hated it. Stefan was glad when she finally got up to leave, taking the stake out of his leg. He groaned now that she was gone, showing the pain that his body was feeling. He looked at the gaping wounds left by Lexi's cynical torture. He knew they would heal in a few days, but no time soon.

Stefan tried to wiggle a bit, to see if he can find a way out of his restraints while Lexi was a way. But it was no use. Stefan wondered what new hell Lexi was planning as she was out of the cell. He no longer had to wonder as the cell door open and in walked Elena Gilbert. Stefan could see the shock on her face at what Lexi did to him, this just made Stefan smirk.

"Hey lover, guess what, I went to church, get it, I'm holey." Stefan said to her with a cynical laugh. It was a really old joke, but it fit the situation. "So this is your grand plan Lexi?" Stefan said looking at Lexi now. His voice different then ever before, it was almost withdrawn, like he didn't care about Elena one bit, but he did, of course he did, he just hid the feelings right now cause he had to.

"So, whats your plan? Torture her in front of me? Kill her in front of me? Go ahead, I have to protect Elena cause of Klaus, but if I cant..." Stefan said pulling on the chains to make his point. "...But I know you Lexi, you would never willingly harm a single pretty little hair on her head. So go for it, if you think you can stomach it." Stefan dared her, thinking that Lexi would never do it.

She glared at her best friend as he spoke about proving to her that he wasn’t gay. This was the truth though and she knew that he specifically said it to be an ass. She had a feeling that the fact that he still did somewhat care about Elena (deep deep down inside) was what was making him act even worse than normal because before her he really had no one to disappoint so now that he knew he was disappointing the love of his life (when he could feel love that was) was bound to get him defensive, which was exactly what he was being.

She hated to admit it but the whole 'him being okay with Damon and Elena' thing was sort of pissing her off. It honestly made her sick to think about it because of everything that Damon had done in the past and the way that she'd seen him treat women. "Really? You'd be okay if he turned her then? Because you know that's what would happen. He'd keep her human for a bit longer before he forced his blood on her, maybe he'd compel her to take it, then he'd sink his teeth into her neck for a quick bite and then SNAP, he'd kill her. Then she'd come back and he'd tell her the 'right' way to be a vampire, I.E. 'Hunt, Prey, Kill' and then she'd be just like Damon. Is that really what you want for Elena?" She asked him incredulously, getting a bit worried about her plan failing if he really was okay with it.

Snickering at his idea of her wanting to take a ride she shook her head. "Nah, you'd be no fun to play with like this." She told him, then lowering her voice so it dripped seductively. "Now when you are the good Stefan that we all know and love, I wouldn't mind him being my boy toy for a night or two, but it's not like he doesn't know that already." She told him with a wink, though her words were true. She’d be a liar if she said she never thought of her and Stefan together and it was only because they were too different in a lot of ways that she had never tried more than having a sexual relationship. Now that she had met Elena she was glad she hadn't as she couldn't imagine anyone better for her bestie than Elena
She smacked him upside his head when he commented on being holey. “You’re an idiot and even have a worse sense of humor like this than when your normal Stefan.” She stated with a glare, hating that she would have to do this. She had really hoped he would snap out of it but well, yeah, this wouldn’t be fun.

“Clearly you don’t know that much about me darling.” She stated before smirking. “Besides, she's here to play..." She told him before walking over to the young girl and framing her face with her eyes, looking deep in her eyes. Elena knew what to do. She had vervain on her but not anywhere that was visible. This was going to be a two step process and she had a feeling Stefan wasn't going to like either one.

"You want to play with us don't you?" She asked her, her voice almost seductive as she stared into the brunette's eyes. Yes. She heard softly and grinned. "Watch and learn Stef." She told him before feeling her teeth elongate as she leaned into Elena's neck. Biting down on the smooth skin she took a few careful sips just to prove that she wasn't on vervain before pulling away. She knew it had hurt but also knew that Elena was alright with this. "Mmmm...yummy and so...clean." She stated, making it clear what she was checking for.

Turning her eyes back to the brunette she immediately stared at her, making it look like she was compelling her. “Now, be a good girl and get in my bag and get me the butcher knife that’s in there.” She told her and watched as the brunette did so, making her moments methodical just as she had told her to in order to pretend she was being compelled. Elena had originally offered to really be under compulsion but Lexi had denied the invitation, preferring only to pretend to compel her even though the events would be the same either way. Once the younger girl was back she turned her around slowly, both facing Stefan as Lexi stood behind her, the knife to her stomach. “Now Stef, one chance. Flip the switch or watch your girlfriend bleed to death.” She told him, her eyes shown with how serious she was. She knew it wouldn’t work, she knew he’d try and call her bluff…but she figured she’d try again…for Elena’s sake.

She cringed at the picture that Stefan made tied up to a chair in chains and clearly suffering from vervain poisoning. Lexi had warned her time and time again but she hadn't really let it sink in just what Lexi's plan had meant. She told her it wouldn't be pretty, hell Elena herself was a part of the 'least pretty' part but still...she hadn't expected what she was witnessing. His hair was matted down to his forehead, his arms and legs were both chained up (and by the looks of it the chains were pretty damn tight) and he looked weaker than she’d seen him in a good long time.

It wasn’t only because it was Stefan that was making her cringe, no, it was because someone was in pain and she had something to do with it. She hated seeing anyone in pain, but especially someone she loved. She knew a lot of people would want others to suffer after all she’d been through, but even when it came to Klaus she could spout out about how she wanted him to have a long hard death but really, she didn’t want that. She wanted him dead sure, but didn’t want him to suffer for it. She wasn’t that type of person, she never had been.

Stefan making lewd comments was something she didn’t want to hear but she stood her ground, not saying anything. She knew that Lexi had told him more than a few times that she didn’t know where the keys were and figured that’s what was keeping him from beginning. Granted this was a lie as she knew where all the keys were. They were in a bag hidden out in the tunnels. They were hidden behind a rock though he didn't need to know that. Originally Lexi had planned on leaving them at the house but after their Plan B had taken shape they realized they were going to need the key (well, technically keys) to be somewhere quickly accessible as they were going to need to get him out of his chains quickly.

She felt Lexi frame her face and turned her eyes back to her, pretending to become lost in them. She had offered to let Lexi really compel her but was silently grateful when the blonde declined her offer. "Yes" she replied to Lexi's seductive line about playing with them. Feeling her teeth bite into her neck would have been erotic if she wouldn't have been terrified that this whole thing wasn't going to work. She had often wondered why when Stefan was taking her blood that he hadn't done so from her neck nor while they were being intimate but never asked, having a feeling she wouldn't like the answer.

Doing as Lexi asked and grabbing the butcher knife she took a second to study it, grimacing at the thought of what was going to happen next. Yeah, this was not going to be fun for anyone involved, least of all her being that it was going to hurt like hell. She would however do anything to bring Stefan back and if this didn’t work she wasn't sure what would. He had always had a protective impulse when it came to her and she prayed it would work this time. Feeling the knife at her stomach she stared straight ahead, pretending to still be under Lexi's control. She had to remember not to show any emotion, she couldn't afford to be afraid.
