In the first series when the tomb 吸血鬼 are being burned why does John Gilbert stake Anna and not let her burn?

1-the writers did it so her death will be 更多 tragic.

2-John wanted to make sure she wouldn't be with Jeremy anymore. He taught of himself a bit as Jeremy's mentor and he wanted to protect him from what he considered to be evil. That's also why he threw Damon in the flames, he wanted to protect Elena.

3- Anna, unlike Damon, grabbed John's leg and begged him not to let her burn so he killed her on the spot and let the other vampire simply burn.

Because he wants to kill her 由 him self. John wants to kill a vampire.

he probably saw jereny with her and want to kill her because he hated 吸血鬼 或者 he didn't want her to escape
