Damon, human in Season 6?

After weeks of speculations, our suspicions were confirmed: Damon died at the end of Season 5, leaving hundreds (even thousands) of fans incredibly touched and devastated after the epic farewell speech to Elena. Being Damon one of the main characters of TVD, we know it is impossible that he is gone forever. So where is he? how is it supposed that he will return if The Other Side has gone forever, as continuously remarked by TVD writers? and how will he return? There is only one thing we know for sure: he is dead for a reason; and of course we have a theory about how he will return….because one thing is sure, he will come back in season 6 !

After episode 5x22, Julie Plec said in an interview that Tyler is the only character that returned human from The Other Side because he was the only one that died in his human form. The others are still vampires.

Despite of that, after waking up in The Other Side during episode 5x22, we remarked Damon had no strength to raise the iron bar for saving sheriff Forbes; fortunately Alaric was there to help him. 

Can it be possible that he was already human? In fact, we don’t see how Damon dies exactly. When he crashes the car into The Mystic Grill, the only thing that we know is that he wasn’t wearing the seat belt and this made him fly out of the car. Maybe this probably protected him from the explosion and in the end, he died by the gunshot wound. Also remarkable the fact that Damon’s dead body was not so burned as Elena’s, at least in the images that we could see, so he couldn’t die due to the fire.. It’s true too that Elena finds Bonnie first in The Other side, which means that she died first.. All these points bears out the fact that Damon could die in his human form… 

Could it be that a surprise for season 6 that Julie wants to keep as a secret?

There are several points that reinforce our theory: 1) a creature that symbolizes evil does not deserve a second chance to life, so he was probably human when he died; 2) coming back as human from death is the only way he could be converted into human without getting older quickly, as it happened to Katherine in previous episodes when she took “the cure”; 3) at the end of season 4, Elena asks Damon to take the cure because he had been bitten by a werewolf. He said that he couldn’t stand the fact of being growing old whereas she was remaining young. We know that in this series nothing is said by chance, so this could be a clue of what is coming in the next episodes.

Don’t forget that Ian Somerhalder said in an interview that Damon comes back in Season 6 in a different way and that all of them are very excited about it.

A good question that arises here is: in that case, why was he in The Other Side if he died already as human? it is a good question, in fact, and our answer here is probably due to the magic ring he is wearing to be protected from the sun. Although of course it is one of our theories, and it can be open to more speculations…

Another open point that last episode left us for speculations is: where is he now, if The Other Side does not exist anymore? we know that, thanks to Bonnie’s grandma, both Bonnie and Damon were saved and went to a mysterious place. At the end of the episode we could see they were surrounded by a white light, different from the darkness that abducted Katherine and Markos previously. This is the same white light that surrounded Damon and Elena during the epic kissing scene in the middle of the episode (their last kiss). The series logo is white too at the end of the episode and in the promotional poster of season 6 we can see Damon, Elena and Stephan with a mysterious white mist floating between them. Could it be a kind of Heaven?

But, wasn’t it Julie Plec that mentioned that they wanted to stop all the mythological stuff and making the series more organical and normal? how can they do this if 2 main characters are lost in “heaven” or wherever they are? is it possible then that they could be back to Earth without anybody knowing about it? everything can happen in this series, so why not?

What do you think? Do you want our beloved Damon back as human? and where is he? We know that there is nothing sexiest in the world than Damon as a vampire but even so our answer is YES, we want DAMON HUMAN in Season 6!!!!!! This is the only way he could get the human life he has always wanted and deserved, growing old, having children and building a future with her beloved Elena once she is also converted into human, maybe in Season 7...although this is another topic for speculations.
