Contents 24 страница. from anything outside the sand pit, and just as efficiently separated from the star






from anything outside the sand pit, and just as efficiently separated from the star

ball.

“The axe!” Stefan called to her. “Throw me—”

But there was no time. A rootlet had curled around it and was swiftly dragging it

into the upper branches.

“Stefan, I’m sorry! I was too slow!”

“It was too fast!” Stefan corrected.

Elena held her breath, waiting for the last crash from above, the one that would

kill them all. When it didn’t come, she realized something. The Tree was not only

intelligent, but sadistic. They were to be trapped here, away from their supplies, to

die slowly of thirst and starvation, or to go mad watching the others die.

The best that they could hope for was that Stefan would kill both Bonnie and her

—but even he would never get out. These wooden branches would come crashing

down again and again, as often as the Tree felt necessary, until Stefan’s crushed

bones joined the others that had been milled to fine sand.

That was what did it, the thought of all of them, trapped with Damon, making a

mockery of his death. The thing that had been swelling inside Elena for weeks now,

at hearing the stories about children who ate their pets, at creatures who delighted

in pain, had, with Damon’s sacrifice, finally gotten so big that she could no longer

contain it.

“Stefan, Bonnie—don’t touch the branches,” she gasped. “Make sure you’re not

touching any part of the branches.”

“I’m not, love, and Bonnie isn’t either. But why?”

“I can’t keep it in anymore! I have to stand like this—”

“Elena, no! That spell—”

Elena could no longer think. The hateful demi-light was driving her mad, reminding

her of the pinpoint of green in Damon’s pupils, the horrible green light of the Tree.

She understood exactly about the Tree’s sadism to her friends…and in the

corner of her eye she could see a bit of black…like a rag doll. Except that it was no

doll; it was Damon. Damon with all of his wild and witty spirit broken. Damon…who

must be gone from this and all worlds by now.

His face was covered with her blood. There was nothing peaceful or dignified

about him. There was nothing the Tree had not taken from him.

Elena lost her mind.

With a scream that peeled raw and bleeding from her backbone and came

hoarsely out of her throat, Elena grabbed a branch of the Tree that had killed

Damon, that had murdered her beloved, and that would murder her and these two

others she loved as well.

She had no thoughts. She wasn’t capable of thinking. But instinctively she held a

high bough of the Tree’s cage and let the fury explode out of her, the fury of

murdered love.

Wings of Destruction.

She felt the Wings arch behind her, like ebony lace and black pearls, and for a

moment she felt like a deadly goddess, knowing that this planet would never harbor

any life ever again.

When the attack flared out, it turned the twilight all around her to matte black.

What a fitting color. Damon will like this, she thought in confusion, and then she

remembered again, and it slammed blistering out of her again, the Power to destroy

the Tree all over this small world. It shattered her from the inside but she let it keep

coming. No physical pain could compare with what was in her heart, with the pain of

losing what she had lost. No physical pain could express how she felt.

The huge roots in the ground underneath them were bucking as if there was an

earthquake, and then—

There was a deafening sound as the trunk of the Great Tree exploded straight

upward like a rocket, disintegrating to fine ash as it went. The spider’s-leg bars

around them simply disappeared along with the canopy above. Something in

Elena’s mind noted that very far away the same destruction was going on, racing to

turn branches and leaves into infinitesimal bits of matter that hung in the air like

haze.

“The star ball!” Bonnie cried in the eerie silence, anguished.

“Vaporized!” Stefan caught Elena as she sank to her knees, her ethereal black

wings fading. “But we’d never have gotten it anyway. That Tree had been protecting

it for thousands of years! All we’d have gotten would have been a slow death.”

Elena had turned back to Damon. She had not been touching the stake that ran

through him—in seconds it would be the only remnant of the Tree on this world. She

could hardly dare hope that there was a spark of life left in him now, but the child

had wanted to speak with her and she would make that possible or die trying. She

scarcely felt Stefan’s arms around her.

Once again, she plunged into the very depths of Damon’s mind. This time she

knew exactly where to go.

And there, by a miracle, he was, although obviously in hideous pain. Tears were

rolling down his cheeks and he was trying not to sob. His lips were bitten raw. Her

Wings had not been able to destroy the wood inside him—it had already done its

poisonous damage—and there was no way to reverse that.

“Oh, no, oh God!” Elena caught the child in her arms. A teardrop fell on her hand.

She rocked him, scarcely knowing what she was saying. “What can I do to help?”

“You’re here again,” he said, and in his voice, she heard the answer. This was all

that he wanted. He was a very simple child.

“I’ll be here—always. Always. I’m never letting go.”

This didn’t have the effect that she wanted. The boy gasped, trying to smile, but

was torn with a horrible spasm that almost arched his body out of her arms.

And Elena realized that she was turning the inevitable into slow, excruciating

torture.

“I’ll hold you,” she modified her words for him, “until you want me to let go. All

right?”

He nodded. His very voice was breathless with pain. “Could you—could you let

me shut my eyes? Just…just for a moment?”

Elena knew, as perhaps this child did not, what would happen if she stopped

badgering him and let him sleep. But she couldn’t stand to see him suffering any

longer, and nothing was real again, and there was no one else in the world for her,

and she didn’t even care if doing it this way meant she would follow him into death.

Carefully steadying her voice, she said, “Maybe…we can both shut our eyes.

Not for a long time—no! But…just for a moment.”

She kept rocking the small body in her arms. She could still feel a faint pulse of

life…not a heartbeat, but still, a pulsing. She knew that he hadn’t shut his eyes yet;

that he was still fighting the torture.

For her. Not for anything else. For her sake only.

Putting her lips close to his ear, she whispered, “Let’s close our eyes together,

all right? Let’s close them…at the count of three. Is that all right?”

There was such relief in his voice and such love. “Yes. Together. I’m ready. You

can count now.”

“One.” Nothing mattered except holding him and keeping herself steady. “Two.

And…”

“Elena?”

She was startled. Had the child ever said her name before?

“Yes, sweetheart?”

“Elena…I…love you. Not just because of him. I love you too.”

Elena had to hide her face in his hair. “I love you, too, little one. You’ve always

known that, haven’t you?”

“Yes—always.”

“Yes. You’ve always known that. And now…we’ll close our eyes—for a moment.

Three.

She waited until the last faint movement stopped, and his head fell back, and his

eyes were shut and the shadow of suffering was gone. He looked, not peaceful, but

simply gentle—and kind, and Elena could see in his face what an adult with

Damon’s features and that expression would look like.

But now even the small body was evaporating right out of Elena’s arms. Oh, she

was stupid. She’d forgotten to close her eyes with him. She was so dizzy, even

though Stefan had stopped the bleeding from her neck. Closing her eyes…maybe

she would look as he had. Elena was so glad that he’d gone gently at the end.

Maybe the darkness would be kind to her, too.

Everything was quiet now. Time to put away her toys and draw the curtains. Time

now to get in bed. One last embrace…and now her arms were empty.

Nothing left to do, nothing left to fight. She’d done her best. And, at least, the child

had not been frightened.

Time to turn off the light now. Time to shut her own eyes.

The darkness was very kind to her, and she went into it gently.

B ut after an endless time in the soft, kind darkness, something was forcing Elena

back up into light. Real light. Not the terrible green half-light of the Tree. Even

through shut eyelids she could see it, feel its heat. A yellow sun. Where was she?

She couldn’t remember.

And she didn’t care. Something was saying inside her that the gentle darkness

was better. But then she remembered a name.

Stefan.

Stefan was…?

Stefan was the one who…the one she loved. But he’d never understood that love

was not singular. He’d never understood that she could be in love with Damon and

that it would never change an atom’s worth of her love for him. Or that his lack of

understanding had been so wrenching and painful that she had felt torn into two

different people at times.

But now, even before she opened her eyes, she realized that she was drinking.

She was drinking the blood of a vampire, and that vampire wasn’t Stefan. There

was something unique in this blood. It was deeper and spicier and more heavy, all

at once.

She couldn’t help opening her eyes. For some reason she didn’t understand,

they flew open and she tried immediately to focus on the scent and feeling and

color of whoever was bending over her, holding her.

She couldn’t understand, either, her sense of letdown when she slowly realized

that it was Sage leaning over her, holding her gently but securely to his neck, with

his bronze chest bare and warm from the sunlight.

But she was lying down flat, on grass, from what her hands could feel…and for

some reason her head was cold. Very cold.

Cold and wet.

She stopped drinking and tried to sit up. The light grip became firmer. She heard

Sage’s voice say, and felt the rumbling in his chest as he said it, “ Ma pauvre petite,

you must drink more in a moment or so. And your hair has still some of the ashes

in it.”

Ashes? Ashes? Didn’t you put ashes on your head for…now what had she been

thinking about? It was as if there was a block in her mind, keeping her from getting

close to…something. But she wasn’t going to be told what to do.

Elena sat up.

She was in—yes, she was very sure—the kitsune paradise, and until a moment

ago her body had been arched back, so that her hair had been in the clear little

stream that she had seen earlier. Stefan and Bonnie had been washing something

pitch-black out of her hair. They both were smudged with black as well: Stefan had

a big swath across one cheekbone, and Bonnie had faint gray streaks below her

eyes.

Crying. Bonnie had been crying. She was still crying, in little sobs that she was

trying to suppress. And now that Elena looked harder she could see that Stefan’s

eyelids were swollen and that he had been crying too.

Elena’s lips were numb. She fell back onto the grass, looking up at Sage, who

was wiping his eyes furtively. Her throat ached, not just inside, where sobbing and

gasping might make it hurt, but outside, too. She had a picture of herself slashing at

her own neck with a knife.

Through her numb lips, she whispered, “Am I a vampire?”

Pas encore,” Sage said unsteadily. “Not yet. But Stefan and I, we both had to

give you massive amounts of blood. You must be very careful in the next days. You

are right on the brink.”

That explained how she felt. Probably Damon was hoping that she would become

one, wicked boy. Instinctively, she held out her hand to Stefan. Maybe she could

help him.

“We just won’t do anything for a little while,” she said. “You don’t have to be sad.”

But she herself still felt very wrong. She hadn’t felt this wrong since she’d seen

Stefan in prison and had thought that he would die at any moment.

No…it was worse…because with Stefan there had been hope and Elena had the

feeling that now hope was gone. Everything was gone. She was hollow: a girl who

looked solid, but whose insides were missing.

“I’m dying,” she whispered. “I know it…Are you all going to say good-bye now?”

And with that Sage—Sage!—choked up and began to sob. Stefan, still looking so

oddly mussed, with those traces of soot on his face and arms and his hair and

clothes soaking wet, said, “Elena, you’re not going to die. Not unless you choose

to.”

She had never seen Stefan look like this before. Not even in prison. His flame,

his inner fire that he showed to almost no one but Elena, had gone out.

“Sage saved us,” he said, slowly carefully, as if it cost him great effort to speak.

“The ash that was falling—you and Bonnie would have died if you’d had to breathe

any more of it. But Sage put a door back to the Gatehouse right in front of us. I

could barely see it; my eyes were so full of ashfall, and it’s only getting worse on

that moon.”

“Ashfall,” Elena whispered. There was something at the bottom of her mind, but

once again her memory failed her. It was almost as if she’d been Influenced to not

remember. But that was ridiculous.

“Why were ashes falling?” she asked, realizing that her voice was husky, hoarse

—as if she’d cheered too long at a football game.

“You used Wings of Destruction,” Stefan said steadily, looking at her with his

swollen eyes. “You saved our lives. But you killed the Tree—and the star ball

disintegrated.”

Wings of Destruction. She must have lost her temper. And she’d killed a world.

She was a murderer.

And now the star ball was lost. Fell’s Church. Oh, God. What would Damon say

to her? Elena had done everything—everything wrong. Bonnie was sobbing now,

her face turned away.

“I’m sorry,” Elena said, knowing how inadequate this was. For the first time she

looked around miserably. “Damon?” she whispered. “He won’t speak to me?

Because of what I did?”

Sage and Stefan looked at each other.

Ice went down Elena’s spine.

She started to get up, but her legs weren’t the legs she remembered. They

wanted to unlock at the knees. She was staring down at herself, at her own wet and

smudged clothes—and then something like mud came down her forehead. Mud or

congealing blood.

Bonnie made a sound. She was still sobbing, but she was speaking, too, in a new

husky voice that made her sound much older. “Elena—we didn’t get the ashes out

of the top of your hair. Sage had to give you an emergency transfusion.”

“I’ll get the ashes out,” Elena said flatly. She let her knees bend. She fell onto

them, jarring her body. Then, twisting, she leaned down to the little brook and let her

head fall forward. Through the icy shock she could dimly hear exclamations from

the people above water, and Stefan’s sharp, Elena, are you all right? in her head.

No, she thought back. But I’m not drowning, either. I’m washing out my hair.

Maybe Damon will at least see me if I’m presentable. Maybe he’ll come with us

and fight for Fell’s Church.

Let me help you up, Stefan sent quietly.

Elena had come to the end of her air. She pulled her heavy head out of the water

and flipped it, soaking but clean, so that it fell down her back. She stared at Stefan.

“Why?” she said—and then, with a sudden panic—“Has he left already? Was he

angry…with me?”

“Stefan.” It was Sage, speaking tiredly. Stefan, who was staring out of his green

eyes like a hunted animal, made some faint sound.

“The Influence, it is not working,” Sage said. “She will remember on her own.”

S tefan didn’t move or speak for long moments. Elena’s heart swelled. Suddenly

she was as afraid as he clearly was. She went to him and took both his hands,

which were shaking.

Darling, don’t cry, she sent. There must still be time to save Fell’s Church.

There must. It can’t end this way. And besides, Shinichi is gone! We can get to

the children; we can break the conditioning…” She stopped. It was as if the word

“conditioning” echoed in her ears. Stefan’s green eyes were filling her vision. Her

mind was getting…it was getting fuzzy. Everything was becoming unreal again. In a

minute she wouldn’t be able to…

She wrenched her eyes away, breathing hard.

“You were Influencing me,” she said. She could hear the anger in her own voice.

“Yes,” Stefan whispered. “I’ve been Influencing you for half an hour.”

How dare you? Elena thought, just for him.

“I’m stopping it…now,” Stefan said quietly.

“As am I,” Sage added, sounding exhausted.

And the universe did a slow spin and Elena remembered what it was that they

were all keeping from her.

With a wild sob, she rose, scattering droplets, coming to her feet like an

avenging goddess. She looked at Sage. She looked at Stefan.

And Stefan proved how brave he was, how much he loved her. He told her what

she already knew. “Damon is gone, Elena. I’m so sorry. I’m sorry if…if I kept you

from being with him as much as you wanted to. I’m sorry if I came between you. I

didn’t understand—how much you loved each other. I do now.” And then he

dropped his face into his hands.

Elena wanted to go to him. To scold him, to hold him. To tell Stefan that she loved

him just as much, drop for drop, grain for grain. But her body had gone numb, and

the darkness was threatening again…all she could do was hold out her arms as

she crumpled onto the grass. And then somehow Bonnie and Stefan were both

there, the three of them all sobbing: Elena with the intensity of new discovery;

Stefan with a lost sound that Elena had never heard before; and Bonnie with a dry,

wrenching exhaustion that seemed to want to shatter her small body.

Time lost all meaning. Elena wanted to grieve for every moment of Damon’s

painful death, and for every moment of his life, too. So much had been lost. She

couldn’t get her head around it, and she didn’t want to do anything but cry until the

kind darkness took her mind again.

That was when Sage broke.

He grabbed Elena and pulled her up, and shook her by the shoulders. It snapped

her head back and forth.

“Your town is in ruins!” he shouted, as if this was her fault. “Midnight may or may

not bring disaster. Oh, yes, I saw it all in your mind when I went in to Influence you.

Little Fell’s Church is already devastated. And you won’t even fight for it!”

Something blazed through Elena. It melted the numbness, the iciness. “Yes, I’ll

fight for it!” she screamed. “I’ll fight for it with every breath in my body, until I stop

the people who did it, or until they kill me!”

“And how, puis-je savoir, will you get back in time? By the time you walk back the

way you came, it will all be over!”

Stefan was beside her, bracing her, shoulder to shoulder. “Then we’ll force you

to send us some other way—so that we can get back in time!”

Elena stared. No. No. Stefan couldn’t have said that. Stefan didn’t force his way

—and she wouldn’t have him changing himself. She whirled back on Sage.

“There’s no need to fight! I have a Master Key in my backpack, and magic works

here inside the Gatehouse!” she cried.

But Stefan and Sage were staring each other down, each fierce and intent. Elena

wanted to go to Stefan but the world was doing another of its slow somersaults.

She was afraid that Sage would attack Stefan, and that she couldn’t even fight for

him.

But instead, suddenly, Sage threw back his head and laughed wildly. Or perhaps

it was something between thunderous laughing and crying. It was as eerie as the

sound of a wolf baying, and Elena felt Bonnie’s small, trembling body hug her—to

comfort both of them.

“What the hell!” Sage bellowed, and now there was a wild look in his eyes, too.

Mais oui, what the Hell?” He laughed again. “After all, I am the Gatekeeper, and I

have already broken the rules by allowing you through two different doors.”

Stefan was still breathing hard. Now he reached out and grabbed Sage by his

broad shoulders and shook him with the strength of a vampire gone mad. “What

are you talking about? There’s no time for talk!”

“Ah, but there is, mon ami. My friend, there is. What you need is the firepower of

the heavens to save Fell’s Church—and to undo the damage that has already been

done. To wipe it out, to make it as if it had never happened. And,” Sage added

deliberately, looking directly at Elena, “perhaps—just perhaps—to undo this day’s

events, also.”

Suddenly every inch of Elena’s skin was tingling. Her whole body was listening to

Sage, leaning toward him, yearning, while her eyes widened with the only other

question that mattered.

Sage said, very softly, very triumphantly, “Yes. They can bestow life upon the

dead. They have that Power. They can bring back mon petit tyran Damon—as they

brought you back.”

Stefan and Bonnie were holding Elena up. She couldn’t stand on her own.

“But why would they help?” she whispered painfully. She wouldn’t allow herself

even a breath of hope, not until she understood everything.

“In exchange for what was stolen from them millennia ago,” Sage replied. “You

are in a fortress of Hell, you know. That is what the Gatehouse is. The Guardians

cannot enter here. They cannot storm the gate and demand back what is inside…

the seven— pardon, now six—kitsune treasures.”

Not a breath of hope. Not a breath. But Elena heard herself give a wild laugh.

“How do we give them a park? Or a field of black roses?”

“We give them the rights to the land that the park and the field of roses lie upon.”

Not a breath, even though the bodies on either side of Elena were shaking now.

“And how do we offer them the Fountain of Eternal Youth and Life?”

“We do not. However, I have here various containers, waiting to be collected as

garbage. The threat of a gallon bottle of La Fontaine randomly spread all over your

Earth…that would devastate them. And, of course,” Sage added, “I know the kinds

of gems with enchantments already upon them that they would most desire. Here,

let me open the doors all at once! We take all we can—the rooms, strip them

bare!”

His enthusiasm was contagious. Elena half-turned, breath held, eyes widened to

catch the first glowing of a door’s light.

“Wait.” Stefan’s voice was hard suddenly. Bonnie and Elena turned back and

froze, embracing each other, trembling. “What is your—your father—going to do to

you when he finds out that you allowed this?”

“He will not kill me,” Sage said brusquely, the wild tone back in his voice. “He may

even find it as amusant as I do, and we will be sharing a belly laugh tomorrow.”

“And if he doesn’t find it amusing? Sage, I don’t think…Damon wouldn’t have

wanted—”

Sage whirled around and for the first time since she had met him, Elena could

believe with her whole soul that he was the son of his father. His eyes had even

seemed to change color, to the yellow of a flame, with diamond pupils like a cat’s.

His voice was like steel splintering, harder even than Stefan’s. “What is between

my father and me is my own business—mine! Stay here if you want. He never

bothers himself about vampires, anyway—he says they’re cursed already. But I am

going to do everything I can to bring mon chéri Damon back.”

“Whatever the cost to you?”

“The hell with the cost!”

To Elena’s surprise, Stefan gripped Sage’s shoulders for a moment and then

simply hugged as much of him as he could hold.

“I just wanted to make sure,” he said quietly. “Thank you, Sage. Thank you.” Then

he turned and strode over to the Royal Radhika plant, and with one yank, pulled it

out of its bower.

Elena, heart beating in her lips and throat and fingertips, ran to gather the empty

containers and bottles Sage was tossing out of a ninth doorway that had appeared

in between the mine shaft and the field of black roses. She snatched up a gallon

container and an Evian water bottle, both with secure caps intact. They were made

of plastic, which was good, because she dropped them both just going across the

room to the bubbling fountain. Her hands were shaking that badly; and all the time

she was sending up a monotonous prayer, Oh, please. Oh, please. Oh, please!

She got water into both containers at the Fountain and capped them. And then

she realized that Bonnie was still standing in the middle of the Gatehouse. She

looked bewildered, frightened.

“Bonnie?”

“Sage?” Bonnie said. “How do we get these things to the Celestial Court to

bargain with them?”

“Have no worries,” Sage said kindly. “I am certain that Guardians will be waiting

just outside to arrest us. They will take us to the Court.”

Bonnie didn’t stop trembling, but she nodded and hurried to help Sage get bottles

of Black Magic—and break them. “A symbol,” he said. “ Un signe of what we will do

to this area if the Celestials don’t agree. Be careful not to cut your pretty hands.”

Elena thought she heard Bonnie’s husky voice then, and that it was not a happy

tone. But Sage’s rumbling murmur was reassuring. And Elena would neither allow

herself to hope nor despair. She had a task in hand, a scheme. She was making

private Plans for the Celestial Court.

When she and Bonnie had all the plunder they could carry, and their backpacks

were full as well, when Stefan had two narrow black boxes that held deeds, and

when Sage looked like a cross between Santa Claus and a bronzed, gorgeous,

long-haired Hercules, as he carried two sacks made of pillowcases, they gave one

last look around at the ravaged Gatehouse.

“All right,” Sage said then. “Time to face the Guardians.” He smiled reassuringly

at Bonnie.

As usual, Sage was right. The moment they came out with their booty, Guardians

from two different dimensions were ready for them. The first type were the ones

who looked vaguely like Elena: blond hair, dark blue eyes, slender. The Guardians

of the Nether World seemed senior to these, and were lithe women with skin so

dark it was almost ebony, and hair that curled tightly in a cap over their heads.

Behind them were brilliant golden air cars.

“You are under arrest,” one of the dark ones said, not looking as if she enjoyed

her job, “for removing treasures that rightfully belong to the Celestial Court out of

the sanctuary where it was agreed that they would be kept, under the laws of both

our dimensions.”

And then it was only a matter of hanging on to the golden air cars while hanging

on at the same time to their unlawful booty.

The Celestial Court was…celestial. Pearly white with a faint hint of blue. Minarets. It

was a long distance from the heavily guarded gate—where Elena had seen a third

type of Guardian, one with short red hair and slanted, piercing green eyes—to the

actual palace, which seemed to encompass a city.

But it was when Elena’s group was guided to the throne room that the real culture

shock hit. It was far larger and far more glorious than any room Elena had ever

imagined. No ball or gala in the Dark Dimensions could have prepared her in the
