029. lexa's protector
Whilst Elena walked across the dancefloor, searching for Damon, Lexa was dancing with Sienna, though she kept looking over her shoulder to see Caroline, hoping to dance with her at least once before they left. Suddenly, her cell phone range.
Lexa took her phone out of her pocket and answered it. "Hello, Alexia." The voice said, belonging to the man that'd pretended to be a delivery driver.. the same one that happened to be a vampire and had attacked Elena. The brunette paused, standing still now, scared. "Lexa? Everything okay?" Sienna asked, noticing her date standing awfully still, as she was looking very concerned.
"Here's what you're going to do." The voice said to Lexa as she looked around her for the source of the call. "There's an exit door behind you. You have five seconds." Lexa shook her head, "No."
"Or your brother dies... and then I'll lure Elena instead." The vampire spoke as Lexa shuddered, "Fine."
"Hurry. I can snap his neck so fast I bet there's not even a witness. Now, start walking."
Lexa turned around, to walk to the door. "Lexa! Where are you going?" Sienna asked, worried as to why the Gilbert was acting like this. Lexa turned to face Sienna. "Sienna.. I need you to find Stefan, tell him.. he's here.'" Lexa ordered as Sienna hesitantly nodded, before walking away.
Lexa hung up her phone and ran out of the exit, as Sienna watched, frowning. She turned to walk through the crowd, to find Stefan, but froze. Sienna bit her lip, worrying that while she looks for Stefan, something could happen to her new, close friend. The brunette turned around and ran towards the exit, to go after Lexa.
Lexa ran down the corridor, looking behind her to see if Noah waa following her. She turned into another corridor and came to a set of doors. She attempts to open the doors but they are chained shut.
She turned back around and saw Noah walking calmly towards her. Lexa groaned before she rushed down a different corridor and opened the door to the cafeteria. She ran across the room and tried to open another set of doors which were also locked. Across the room, Noah flung open a set of double doors and before Lexa could move, he vamp-sped towards her.
"I don't want to hurt you." Lexa warned, as Noah's glare on her, deepened. "Fine, you leave me no choice." She decided, as she reached forward and grabbed Noah by the wrist, before she siphoned magic from him.
"What the hell.." Noah trailed off, as Lexa said a spell under her breath, before she flung Noah across the room, with the power of her mind. "You made a grave mistake, threatening my family." Lexa said sternly, walking over to Noah.
Sienna approached a set of double doors, reaching the cafeteria, she is about to enter but froze as she looked at Lexa through the glass. Lexa continued walking towards the stranger, using her magic to keep him in place. "Who are you? Why are you after me?" The Gilbert asked.
Stefan approached the double glass doors, reaching Sienna. "Sienna? What are you doing here?" Stefan asked, noticing the girl staring at Lexa and Noah in surprise. "W..What is Lexa doing to him?" She asked, in surprise and curiosity. Stefan looked up, noticing the girl using her powers on Noah.
Hearing their voices, Lexa looked towards the door, seeing Sienna and Stefan, but as she is distracted for a moment, Noah vamp sped towards the girl, attacking her. "Lexa!" Sienna yelled as Stefan's eyes widen. The pair then go to open the doors, as they're revealed to be chained closed.
"I need to find another entrance.." Stefan said, turning around as he went to vamp speed, but he was stopped as Sienna quickly grabbed his arm. "I'm coming with you!" She ordered as Stefan shook his head. The vampire looked up at Sienna, going to refuse her demand, but noticed her eyes flashed a bright yellow for a moment, causing Stefan to look confused. "What are you?" He asked. Sienna just gave a glare, "Piss me off and you'll find out... take me to Lexa." Sienna demanded before she linked arms with Stefan, and the vampire sped off to find a door, taking the girl with him.
Lexa landed hard on the floor as Noah tossed a table aside and strode towards the Gilbert. Frantically, and out of power, Lexa grabbed at a pencil on the floor and sat up. Noah grabbed Lexa from off the floor and pushed her against the wall. He extended his fangs and prepared to bite her, but the brunette quickly stabbed him in the stomach with the pencil.
Noah, unprepared for this, took the pencil out of his stomach and started towards Lexa again as she prepared to attack again. Noah raised his hand to defend himself, but Lexa's pencil weapon goes straight through the palm of his hand. The vampire looked down at his hand and while he's distracted, Lexa stabbed him with another pencil and pushed Noah to the floor.
As Noah struggled to get up, Lexa walked backwards and bumped into a mop bucket. She turned around and grabbed the mop from the bucket and used her knee to break the handle in two to create a stake whilst Noah ripped the pencil out of his hand and stood up.
As he advanced towards Lexa, she thrusted the stake towards him, but he is too quick and grabbed her wrist. Noah took the stake out of his hand and tossed it aside, before he goes in to bite her neck. Lexa screamed in fear, but before Noah could bite her, Stefan ripped him away from her and tossed him to the ground. Noah got up from the floor.
Sienna rushed to Lexa's side, sitting her up, "Hey, are you okay?" She asked as Alexia gazed up at Sienna, unsure what to even say. "Vampires.. are real.." Sienna blurted, looking to Noah before she looked back to Lexa. "I thought I was going crazy when Vicki fed on me.. Stefan tried to wipe my memory-"
Noah went to vamp speed towards Lexa again, as Sienna guarded the girl, her eyes flashing a bright yellow again as she glared. Noah froze, staring at the girl in surprise, before Stefan grabbed the stake and stabbed Noah in the stomach. The vampire grunted loudly before he fell to his knees.
Stefan then walked over towards Noah so they can interrogate him. "Nobody wants to kill you. We just wanna talk."
"Screw you." Noah retorted before Stefan took hold of the stake and dug the stake in deeper, Noah groaned in pain. "Wrong answer. Why are you doing this?" He ordered. Sienna watched in disgust, as she still stood in front of Lexa, guarding her from the pair of vampires.
"Because it's fun." Noah answered as Stefan dug the stake in a little bit more. "What do you want with Alexia?" He asked. Noah grinned, "She looks like Katherine... except she has magic." Stefan and Lexa looked shocked, whilst Sienna frowned, looking confused by this whole ordeal. "You knew Katherine?" Stefan asked. "Oh. You thought you and your brother were the only ones." Noah laughed before he gasps. "You don't even remember me."
Suddenly, a figure zoomed through the open doors, being Damon. "Tell me how to get in the tomb. Hmm?" He ordered Noah. Sienna blinked in surprise, seeing Damon run so fast. "No." Noah replied before Stefan leant back down and drove the stake in deeper.
"The grimoire!"
"Where is it?"
"Check the journal. The journal. Johnathan's journal. Johnathan Gilbert's."
Outside of the cafeteria, Anna was standing by, looking in, looking helplessly as Noah is tortured. Damon grimaces. "Who else is working with you?" Stefan asked.
Out in the hallways, a door opens. Anna heard this and ran off before she was caught. Alaric appeared from down the corridor and walked towards the cafeteria.
"Who else is there?" Damon ordered. "No. You're gonna have to kill me." Noah insisted. Damon looked at Stefan, and rolled his eyes, before nodding. Stefan removed the stake from Noah's stomach, and waited for a moment before he staked Noah in the heart. Lexa and Sienna gasped in shock, Sienna covering her mouth in surprise as Noah fell to the floor and began to desiccate.
"What do we... how are you gonna find the others now?" Lexa asked, standing up. Damon turned to Alexia and took a step towards her, but as he does, Sienna again took a step in front of Lexa, guarding her. "He had to die." Damon answered.
"But..."
"Lexa, he's been invited in your house." Stefan sighed.
They heard a door open and see Alaric coming through one of the door's windows. Stefan looks at Damon. "Go, all of you. I got this." Damon said before he walked out of the cafeteria.
Sienna wrapped her arm around Lexa, comforting her. "Are you okay?" Stefan asked the Gilbert as she nodded, "Where is Lena?" She asked with worry. "She's safe, don't worry." Stefan said, offering a weak smile, before he turned to Sienna. "I have never seen something with such bright yellow eyes as you.. are you supernatural?" He asked.
Sienna gave Stefan a blank look, "I can ask you the same.. you tried to convince me that Vicki never drank my blood!" She insisted, before turning to Lexa, "And what is with you and your magical hands? What did you do to that guy back there?"
Stefan turned to Lexa, who glanced at Stefan before looking back to Sienna, "I'll tell you everything, but first let's get out of here." She suggested. She then glanced back at Stefan who gave her a nod, before vamp speeding away.

Sienna sat across from Lexa, as they sat facing eachother, cross legged on her bed. "So.. you're a witch?" Sienna asked, as Lexa had just explained everything to her. "Stefan and Damon are vampires.. and Vicki too." Sienna trailed off.
"And you are..?" Lexa asked, as Sienna looked up to her, hesitant to say anything. "I.. am a werewolf." She came clean as the Gilbert blinked in surprise, "I didn't know they were real." She confessed in surprise as Sienna laughed awkwardly, "And neither did I know that vampires or witches are real- but they are!"
"..But nobody knows about me.. not Tyler or Allira or Aunty Carol or Uncle Richard. Only my Dad knows.. and now you of course." Sienna explained before frowning. "I was already born into this world as a mistake.. a girl unwanted. The last thing I want is for those that love me, to see me as a monster and a disgrace." Sienna explained hesitantly as Lexa frowned.
Not aware of her actions, Lexa raised her hand to cup Sienna's cheek, causing the girl to make eye contact with her. "You're not a mistake.. and you're definitely not unwanted, Cece." She said softly, as Sienna smiled weakly. "I won't tell anybody your secret." Lexa said, as she removed her hand from the girl's face. "Thank you, Lexa."
"You know.. apart from the fact you were stalked and attacked tonight.. I think tonight was really fun." Sienna admitted, before the pair laughed. "Yeah apart from that.. I enjoyed it too." Lexa admitted.
Sienna stood up to turn off the lights, her lamp beside her bed providing dim light. She walked back to her bed and laid down, under the covers, as Lexa shifted and laid down now too. Lexa then leaned her head on Sienna's shoulder, before letting out a small yawn. "Ugh same.. being dressed fancy is exhausting." Sienna responded, yawning now too, before she switched off the lamp.
"Thank you for staying over.. I have to admit, I'm pretty scared after seeing that vampire tonight.. the one that tried to attack you. It's scary to think that there's creatures out in the night, like him.." Sienna sighed, feeling vulnerable. "Of course- It's fine Cece. Thank you for trying to protect me tonight.. you had no idea what you were up against yet you didn't dare to let the vampires near me." Lexa admitted, as she'd been surprised and grateful by that act.
"Well of course.. I kinda like you, I'd prefer for you to stick around then be vamp food." Sienna joked, as Lexa laughed awkwardly. "I like you too.. I'm uh.. really happy we've become friends." Lexa admitted, as Sienna smiled brightly. "Me too." She replied, sleepily.
The pair got comfortable, as they were ready to go to sleep, but as Lexa's eyelids grew heavy, she felt a hand slowly slip into hers, being Sienna's. A smile formed on Lexa's lips, before she gently squeezed the girl's hand in response.
