This Little Girl Left on Her Own

Chapter 1

"Come on Bonnie the Grill is calling us!" Caroline Forbes paced through her friend's bedroom which hardly looked like the bedroom you would expect a 17 year old to have. Sure it was a mess whose isn't but instead of clothes thrown on the ground or magazines pushed aside. There was an endless supply of grimoires piled on any available surface area.

"You can go" Bonnie said without looking at Caroline, she was absorbed in the Grimoire in her hands.
"Bonnie the last thing I want is to go drinking alone right now... I might run into Tyler..."

Bonnie stopped reading to look at her friend who was shuffling uncomfortably about the topic. She felt horrible about what Tyler had done to Caroline, she knew herself what it felt like to be cheated on by someone you gave it all too. Caroline had been there for her during her very emotional break up and she wanted to do the very same but as awful as it sounded she couldn't. She just didn't have the time.

Bonnie had been working the past week with Damon and Stefan, more with Damon though in a plan to save Elena. She had been studying spells in all her free time barely having enough time to even get three meals down. If she didn't have enough time to feed herself properly she defiantly didn't have enough time to drink her sorrows away with Caroline.

What was worst, was Caroline had no idea about the Salvatore's plan in saving Elena. They purposely kept her out of the loop because they just didn't have use in her.

"If I came with you we could still run into Tyler you know." Bonnie said in reason and to her relief Caroline nodded in agreement.

"I guess your right... Seriously why do only have one bar in town?" She huffed

"I dounno" Bonnie went back to reading.

Caroline fumed, she really wanted to swallow down some alcohol. It would be an effective distraction. She had thought maybe rustling through the Salvatore's alcohol supply, they're must be loads of it since Damon drinks when ever Elena rejects him, whenever he's dancing with sorority girls, whenever Katharine pulls the moves on him, whenever he wants to snap someone's neck, whenever he's annoying Stefan and whenever he's bored. Damon does drink a lot, he must be thankful to be a vampire because with how much he drinks, he would have never see the day he turned 30.

The thought of barging into the Salvatore mansion and going crazy with their liquor wasn't a bad one but she remembered how concerned Stefan was and how nosy Damon is. They would make her talk and to express herself, to cry in their arms and all. To hell Caroline will ever let that happen.

She sat on the edge of Bonnie's bed, Bonnie didn't look up but she started silently mouthing words. There was long silence between the two. Caroline didn't want to be an interruption anymore; Bonnie was extremely focused on something and she couldn't help to feel like she was just being a bother to her.

"Bonnie" She said to get her attention for the last time.
Bonnie's silent chanting paused and her lips froze in a 'o' like she was only half way through saying a something.
"Um... I think I might you know go" She signalled the way out, awkwardly.

Bonnie still said nothing; her eyes were open so she was still conscious. She must have just been extremely into her spell or something. As Caroline was about to lift her body of the bed she caught scent of something all so familiar... blood. Her eyes instantly turned back to Bonnie. She wasn't visibly bleeding ...yet but she could still smell the blood.

"Bonnie" she said as loud as she could without yelling.

The witches' trance shattered and she looked dazedly at Caroline. Caroline sighed she hated when Bonnie did things like that.

"You're bleeding" she said pointing to her friend's nose.
Bonnie sniffed twice before rubbing her nose revealing drops of scarlet.

"Here" Caroline got up and got the tissue box that was resting on a pile of brown leather witch related books. She sat back on the bed closer to Bonnie this time and offered the box of tissues.

Bonnie smiled lazily and took a few tissues to hold against her nose. Her nose didn't bleed too long but the smell still loomed around. It gave Caroline goose bumps but her hunger wasn't present.

"What were you even doing?"
"I was just chanting, it's not a big deal"
"You were bleeding Bonnie, since when did you get blood noses from chanting?" concerned laced Caroline's voice.
"Magic is... Harder, every since I got it back, all my growth has disappeared and it's like I'm learning it all over again"

Caroline could picked up on Bonnie's sadness. Their grouped relied on her and her magic a lot. It made she feel useful and when she had lost it she was a wreak.

"Hey you don't have to strain yourself okay"

"Mhm" Bonnie responded, Caroline was wrong she did have to strain herself it was the only way to save Elena.

In a change of topic Caroline asked what she was reading about. Not that it overlay interested her.

Bonnie laughed "the chant I was doing has nothing to do with what I was reading but I'm actually reading about the origins of Time Travel."

"Time Travel!" Caroline's interest perked

"Haha Yeah, it's like a rule book of what not to do if you ever get sent back into time."

"Bonnie that's amazing why I haven't heard about this before"

"Because it's impossible" Bonnie stated simply

"Vampires, Witches, Werewolves, Hybrids, Doppelgangers and Time travel is the only one that crosses the line of impossible?"

Bonnie rolled her eyes "Yes!" "And if it was possible which it 'isn't' wouldn't you expect the Originals to have heard about it even tried it out and everything"

Caroline knew Bonnie was right it was only reasonable that the oldest beings alive would time travel if they could. Klaus had a poisonous obsession with the doppelganger line she was sure he would do 'anything' to make more hybrids.

"Well thanks for bursting my bubble" She grumbled

"Do you want to hear the rules" Bonnie teased

"Rules for travelling to another time, Never ask what year you are in to one not from your time, Do not reveal significant events from your time or what you have known to be in your past but their future, You must take their way of living and you must consult your guardian about your progress."

"Guardian, Progressed?" asked a confused Caroline

"The guardian is the witch that sent you it says in here apparently you still have contact between the witch in the present somehow" Bonnie explained "And Progress it says that you need some sort of reason to time travel and if you for fill it you will be whole"

"I still don't understand the last bit, what does it mean 'if you for fill it you will be whole'?"

"Neither do I, grimoires can make no sense at times."

There was a buzz from the Bonnie's beside table. It was her phone. Caroline handed it over to to her friend listening to the upcoming conversation. The caller Id had said it was Damon and Caroline was curious why he would be calling Bonnie since the two didn't... follow the same dynamic of opinion.

Bonnie answered it. "What do you want Damon" her voice wasn't friendly

"Nice to hear your being nice to me witchy" Damon replied.

"You interrupted my reading" she said before he could tell his purpose of calling, Bonnie was aware of Caroline's super hearing. "I'm with Caroline" She added

It's not like she enjoyed hiding things from her friend but she promised Damon to keep it under the sheets and not in the open air. Damon could be more than convincing and Bonnie just couldn't stand up to him like she use to with such limited magical power.

Damon took a light pause to rethink what he was going to say. He didn't want Blondie to be involved with his plan.

"Whatever, I need you here now!" He was voice wasn't the kind to be argued with.

"What do you need Damon?" Caroline asked. He would be able to hear with his heighten hearing.

"Nothing from you Blondie why don't you run along with your pup" That made Caroline flinch, oh right he didn't know about the 'breakup'

"And Bonnie get your witchy behind here" He continued his voice was sweet as lemons. He hung up.

Bonnie ended her call giving Caroline an apologetic look "I should really go."

"You don't have to do what his says!" said Caroline

"Yeah I have to" Bonnie's smile was bitter "Anyways it might be important"

She quickly scribbled on some scrapped paper what Caroline assumed was a spell from the grimoire and slid it in her pocket ready to leave.

Caroline noticed that Bonnie's confidence was on the real low with her powers not being as strong as they use to be. They went their separate ways after leaving Bonnie's house. Caroline wasn't sure where she was going to go, Her house was lonely and Caroline honestly didn't want to be alone. Being alone meant she was left with her thoughts and she didn't want to deal with them now. Bonnie had been right about Tyler maybe being at the Grill, Matt was at work and Elena most likely would be at the Salvatore residence which was where Bonnie was heading too and the place Damon didn't want her to be. After strolling alone, Caroline found her thoughts too much and decided to head the Salvatore's mansion anyway. She rather Damon being a dick to her for disobeying him than walking around the streets on her lonesome.

She made it in no time with her super speed but the price she paid was it ruined her blond curls. Caroline didn't bother knocking, the house was never locked. She wasn't even sure if the house did have a lock and even if it did it would stop her from just walking in.

Pushing the door open she entered alert. She could hear Damon's voice in the background and Bonnie arguing about nothing new 'Elena's safety and who knew better' they were in the living room.

Making her way to them she was surprised to see another face that hadn't said a word yet.

"Sweetheart I never expected you to be invited"

Klaus.

"What's going on" Caroline demanded her to friends, ignoring Klaus his smiling head tilted.

Bonnie's eyes where wide but Damon didn't act too surprised "I told you not to come here" He was shaking his head, more than annoyed.

"Well I did" Caroline sneered "What the hell are you guys doing?"

"Nothing your pretty little head needs to be concerned with love" said Klaus.

Caroline gave him a glare... was he patronizing her.

"For once I agree with the evil Hybrid, you're out Blondie"

Bonnie was glancing between everybody. Before she spoke up herself "Caroline... I think it'd be best if you left..."

Her jaw dropped was Bonnie seriously having her leave?! Flustered, she through her hands into the air "FINE! I'll leave you guys too your power puff girls meeting"

"Power Puff girls?" repeated Damon as she marched off.

"Yes blossom I'll be out of your hair in a seconded" Caroline called behind her before slamming the Salvatore's front door. Regretting calling them powerpuff girls after realizing how lamed it sounded.

Bonnie sighed, she felt guilty what she had done. Damon's pity reinsurance, that Caroline would forgive her didn't make a difference.

"Don't worry Caroline will get over herself just tell her she's pretty and you'll guys can go back to being bffs again, Best friends Forever"

Bonnie wasn't the only one who wasn't amused Klaus was rolling his eyes, he couldn't wait to dispose of the Salvatore when he was finished with him.

"Read the spell" He ordered

Bonnie held in her inner protest. She had to keep telling herself she wasn't as strong as she used to be she could no longer fend of Klaus.

Obediently to the Hybrids satisfaction she did as she was told.

Caroline stood on the Salvatore's door mat. 'Arrg!' She let out turning around to give their front door a good real kick she really didn't care if she knocked it down but as her foot went flying in its direction she lost her balance falling in a heap on the ground. Flashing colours were beaming at her as everything became distorted like they were two different surroundings her eyes were supposed to be see... What was going on?

She couldn't feel someone messing with her mind but then normally you didn't. The air was slowly being sucked out of her environment and in one last hope she gulped in as much as she could before everything began crashing down and the world was dark.

"That's it?" Damon said
Klaus as skeptical too. He was waiting for the great hora not some petty silence

"I guess so" Bonnie said with doubt, she read over the spell on her scrap piece of paper. Still nothing.

"I expected fireworks"

"I don't know what happened!" she defended "It should of worked"

"And I'm afraid that's not good enough maybe you need some more persuasion" Klaus reached into his pocket to pull out his phone. Before Klaus could finish his threat there was a loud thump from outside.

The Vampire and the Hybrid rushed ahead to see what it was where Bonnie had to jog behind them. Reaching the front door she pushed past the two to witness what had made the noise.

"What the-" Damon started

"Oh no" Bonnie gasped in horror "Caroline!"

What lay on the Salvatore's door mat was all of Caroline's clothes her Low cut shirt, and pink skirt... her underwear.

"What did I do..."

Caroline flipped onto her stomached in hope Bonnie's mattress would magically become comfortable. She hadn't remembered it being so hard. The light was tingling her eyes and heating up her face.

"Close the curtains Bonnie" She grumbled patting around the mattress for a pillow to cover her face. Bonnie's mattress felt exceptionally weird... almost like grass. No exactly like grass! Caroline's eyelids burst open to be welcomed by a sea of green.

'Where am I', she wondered? 'How did I get here?'

It was some sort of forest, different to the one in Mystic falls. These trees were lusher and wild like man had not dare touch them. Oddly enough the trees surrounding closest to her seem to create a circle if her imagination wasn't playing games on her.

"And if it was possible..." Bonnie's voice echoed

"Bonnie?!" Caroline yelled out her head frantically searching for her but no one was there. It was just Caroline for what she could sense there was no other human life for miles.

"And if it was possible..." Bonnie's voice echoed louder.

"And If it was possible" Caroline whispered to herself those words...

Caroline's eyes widen "No" She said in disbelief. Bonnie had said those exact words... 'And if it was possible which it isn't' wouldn't you expect the Originals to have heard about it even tried it out and everything'

"No I couldn't of...I can't have... I did not...

Time Travel".
