[The Vampire Diaries] I heard I'm dead

It's raining harder and harder in Mystic Falls.Alice was walking in the rain, with no cover on her head and no protection around her.Rainwater flowed down her hair into her dry eyes and into her silent chest.

She is like a weeping camel in the rain, with no front, only herself.

"Alice!" Bonnie finally found her and called her name: "Don't be like this...Alice."

Alice closed her eyes and let herself be hugged tightly by Bonnie.Her voice was stained with tears, like suffocated vegetation, which can only rot and die in the flood season.

"He's gone...I've got nothing." Alice looked up at Bonnie, as if she could see the empty time through her.

They failed completely in this battle.Elijah was sealed, Jenna died in pain, and Elena also narrowly escaped death.

"Maybe it was a mistake for me to go back to Mystic Falls." The sky was gray, and the unknown bird flew quietly into the distance: "I don't belong here, and nothing belongs to me. I was born to be alone, in a dark coffin Day after day, just for the sake of eternal life, watching the changes of the world."

Alice's gray pupils were like cremated ashes: "I think I should get out of here and go somewhere else."

Her expression was so quiet that Bonnie felt more terrible than any sadness and anger at any time.

"Where are you going?" Bonnie asked.

"I don't know." Alice sighed softly and looked out the window.The white poplar has withered and yellowed, leaving the upright branches, like the only iron tree since the prehistoric times, and all the fresh leaves and silver light are illusions.

Her vitality and hope seem to have gone with Elijah: "It's only now that I've been useless for everything."

The outsiders disappeared almost overnight.After Stefan left, Damon seemed to act as Elena's protector, and Alaric also replaced Jenna as the guardian of the Gilbert siblings.

As winter sets in, the waterfalls dry up, a brief lull for some, and stagnant water for others.

Alice followed where she had stopped.What impressed her most was the mailboxes in these places, and they all once sent letters to people far away for her.

Where does she have any friends?But there is only one pen pal named Shadow.

Roultz is a small town on the northwestern frontier of Pennsylvania.Lake Erie Street is full of various trinkets shops and coffee shops, but there are not many pedestrians, and there is a low-pitched, early autumn rainy noise.

Swift Coffee Shop is an inconspicuous one on Lake Erie Street. At three o'clock in the afternoon, there are very few pedestrians.The clerk was lazily wiping the glasses and the counter, and there was only one customer in the store.

It was a teenage girl with blond hair and gray eyes.

Blonde hair and gray eyes are a rare combination.The clerk thought boredly, but she wasn't interested in striking up a conversation with the only customer.

Alice sat for a long time in this small coffee shop.Until she ordered the third cup of coffee, a tall black man appeared at the door.

The clerk suddenly became alert.There were only two people in the small cafe, a female shop assistant in her 20s and a teenage girl.If this black man who doesn't look like a gentleman wants to do something, no one can stop him.

The black man walked straight to the girl sitting alone, and sat across from her carelessly: "I said I don't want to come to the town of ordinary people. Well, you saw the eyes of that clerk, they are always prejudiced against black people."

"I don't think they are prejudiced against black people, Lipton." Alice sipped her coffee, "If you weren't wearing a dirty strange robe and a dreadlock all over your head."

"Look at you, Dafriel, this is not the courtesy of the Frost Witch." Lipton lowered his voice, his eyes became menacing: "I took the risk to see you, if you can't say anything worthwhile, Then we'd better say goodbye."

Alice put down the coffee cup and asked strangely: "At risk? What's the risk in coming to see me?"

"I don't know why you're still alive—" His voice dropped. "But, since that incident, you've become the enemy of the Mountain Wizards."

When Alice passed by Lake Erie two years ago, the mountain wizard named Lipton recognized her on his own initiative.At that time, Alice fled in a hurry to protect herself, but now she took the initiative to find Lipton for the truth about her past.

Alice was tempted to ask Lipton what "that thing" meant.However, it was obvious that Lipton knew Dafriel, not Alice.She needs to be careful with every word she says.

People who lose their memory are dangerous.She has no way of knowing how many enemies she has.

"As you can see, I'm still alive." Alice said ambiguously: "But I don't think that incident can be counted as my fault."

"Of course it wasn't your fault." Lipton said irritably: "Everyone knows that it was Linore's fault, but what's the use of that? It's all because of you. You were indeed the hero of the mountain wizards , but when Lenores kills the mountain wizard for you, it becomes our nightmare."

His fingers kept moving, looking restless: "Mountain wizards don't live as long as you. I have lived for more than 500 years, and my destiny is approaching. I just hope that I can die peacefully. I came to see you for the last time to repay the past. kindness. But please don't come to me again—”

"I'm too old and I can't do anything about it."

Lipton looked like a middle-aged man, but when he said this, Alice suddenly saw his octogenarian age.

"I didn't mean to embarrass you." Alice put down the coffee cup, "I just want to ask you if there is any way to deal with Nicklaus - you should have heard of him."

"Vampires." Lipton's nose moved slightly, as if he could smell the stench: "The mortal enemy of the mountain wizards. Only after we killed the Roman vampires did the American vampires appear, and we realized that, like wizards, they are indestructible ...that fact frustrated the mountain wizards for a long time."

"But I have to deal with him." Alice's expression became serious: "He threatened my friend's life."

"Treat him? That's an ancestor, and it's not easy to deal with." Lipton replied absently: "It's impossible for mountain wizards to help you. If you go to them, the first thing they will do is to arrest you Get up. Maybe you can try to find other ancestors—generally speaking, they always fight for power and hate each other. This was the case with the princes in power of the Roman vampires, and there can only be one real leader."

Alice said: "But as far as I know, the other ancestors have been solved by Klaus."

"Impossible." Lipton quickly retorted: "I just saw one a while ago - Rebecca, the youngest of the ancestors, pretending to be a high school student at Edmond City High School. She doesn't seem difficult to deal with , but the mountain wizards don't have the energy for another vampire massacre."

"We once wanted to reach a peace agreement with another ancestor, Elijah, but he couldn't defeat Nicklaus and become the ruler. It's a pity. If you want to deal with Claus, maybe you can seek Rebecca's alliance—although She's not very strong."

He raised his head, with the wisdom of an old man in his eyes: "Rebecca is at least an ancestor. If you want to kill an ancestor, there is no better way than to find another ancestor. As the Frost Witch Dafriel, I have seen Your strength—maybe all you lack is a method."

But Alice is no longer in the mood to pursue Rebecca's affairs.Because she heard Elijah's name again, a name that has been around for a long time but has always been ringing in her ears.

When Alice came to Edmond by train across the countryside, she saw a very high-profile high school student disguised as the ancestor of vampires.She walked up to Alice frankly and held out her hand: "Hi, I'm Rebecca."

Her arrogance was clearly visible, and Alice even felt that her eyes were fixed on her neck.

"Hello, Rebecca." Alice took the first step to hold her hand, blocking the sight of other students.

Rebecca turned her eyes to Alice, and she leaned forward, almost rubbing against Alice: "I know you...Elijah's little girlfriend. Let me guess...you are here specially Find me."

"So, what do you want to tell me?" Rebecca raised her chin with a smile that didn't reach her eyes.

"I've never seen you before." Alice spoke slowly, as if she was suppressing something, or waiting for something.She said: "But I've heard your stories. I fought against one of your brothers, and... I fell in love with your other brother." Shaking her head: "No, it's not that I fell in love... I've always Love him, until now, in the future, to the moment that even I can't guess myself."

"I want to know...among your two older brothers, who do you choose?"

Rebecca did not immediately answer her words.She seemed to hear something strange, and quickly adjusted: "You should know that I can stand in front of you instead of lying in a cold coffin, all because of maintaining a good relationship with Klaus."

Everyone knows this fact.But Alice said, "I thought normal people would prefer Elijah to Klaus."

Rebecca was silent.She clearly understood what Alice was expressing, but some things were out of her control. "I'm not strong enough to fight against Klaus," she said. "No one can control what Klaus wants to do. Besides," Rebecca said coldly, "he is my brother."

"Don't you even care?" Alice said as Rebecca turned to leave.She stared straight ahead, but her voice pierced through the air and pierced into Rebecca's ears: "The relatives disappeared one after another, the family was broken up, don't you care about these?"

"So what about you? What do you want?" Rebecca stopped in her tracks. "A down and out young witch, what do you want? Kill Klaus?"

"I never wanted to do anything to Klaus." Alice shook her head and turned to face her: "Maybe I didn't say it, but I hate war, I hate it. I just want to..."

"I just want Elijah back."

Rebecca was silent for a few seconds.Finally she strode away: "You've got the wrong allies. Don't bring up anything like that, Alice."

The author has something to say: I will go to the lecture later, so I will update it in advance~

In fact, you can also use the manuscript box, but the manuscript box cannot automatically post Weibo, which is also troublesome
