"Sienna?" Lexa said into the phone pressed against her ear. "What's happened to Caroline?" She asked. "There's this friend of my Dad.. her name is Jules. She has kidnapped her... I don't know what she's planning to do to Caroline but, we need to save her." The Lockwood explained.

Lexa sighed, realising that she had been drinking. "I can't drive." She mumbled embarrassedly into the phone. "Where are you? I'll be there as soon as I can." Sienna replied.

━━━━━ ⋆⋅♥︎⋅⋆ ━━━━━

Stefan, Tyler, Sienna and Lexa approached Jules, the werewolf eyed them curiously. "Where's Caroline?" Lexa demanded. "Locked up tight." Jules simply responded. "Let her go, and I'll release Tyler. It doesn't have to get any messier than it already has. I'm not your enemy, Jules." Stefan insisted.

"It's a little late to be waving the white flag, don't you think?" Jules asked, before her eyes landed on Sienna. "You're on the wrong side, pup." She said. Clearly hitting a nerve, the Lockwood frowned. "There doesn't have to be any sides." She insisted.

"You need to leave town. No one else has to get hurt." Stefan insisted but Jules shook her head, "I'm not leaving without Tyler. I can't leave him with the werewolf that can't even standby her own kind." She insisted. Sienna's glare hardened at this statement. "Tyler is free to make his own decisions, as soon as you release Caroline." Lexa demanded, sternly.

"My brother the peacemaker." A voice piped up, as the group spun around to face Damon. "Since Stefan got here before me I'm gonna let him try it his way before I resort to my way, which is a little bloodier. So give us Caroline." He ordered.

"Let go of Tyler." Jules demanded. "Give us Caroline. Without a full moon it's not an even fight and you know it. We will take you." Lexa insisted, before she placed her hand on Stefan's shoulder, siphoning from him.

"I'm not so sure about that." Jules declared, before she whistled, and the rest of her pack walked out of their hiding places, all holding weapons including stakes, cross-bows, and a flame-thrower. "Let's try this again. Give us Tyler."

Damon looked at Tyler. "You heard her. Go. Get over there." He insisted. Sienna shot a glare at Damon, "Damon!!" She hissed, but as Tyler walked over to Jules, she raced after him.

"Nope. The traitor isn't allowed." Jules said, standing inbetween Sienna and Tyler. The female Lockwood glared at Jules yet again, her eyes shining yellow for a moment. "Wherever Tyler goes, I go." She growled, before Jules stepped aside. Sienna continued to follow after her cousin, but not before she glared at Jules some more.

"Which one of you killed Mason?" One of the wolves asked. "Uh, that'd be me." Damon said, as Lexa absent mindedly pointed to the older Salvatore. Stefan frowned and quickly lowered her hand. "Boys, make sure that one suffers." The werewolf said to the rest of the pack.

"We can take them." Damon insisted. "I don't know about that." Stefan replied. Lexa looked around, glaring at the wolves, who glared back at her.

"Believe me. We can take them."

The trio spun around, surprised to see Natasha approaching them. "Tasha?" Damon blurted, surprised. The Petrova just shot him a smirk, before she took her place beside him and Lexa.

"Now. We fight."

Damon rushed over Jules, but she flipped onto the top of the RV. One of the werewolves tried to burn Stefan, but he took the flamethrower from him and burnt two werewolves with it. One of the werewolves tried to jump from the RV roof onto Lexa, but the siphoner threw him into a tree using telekinesis.

Natasha now stood back to back with Lexa, as they faced wolves. The Petrova held out her hand, and the Gilbert took it, siphoning more magic from her ancestor. The doppelgängers let go of their hands before they blasted magic at some of the wolves.

Stefan fought with one of the werewolves and drove his stake through his body. Another shot an arrow at him, but he caught it and threw it in his neck. The werewolf fell on the ground.

Another werewolf went behind Stefan and drove a stake through his back, causing him to fall to the ground. Damon fought with another werewolf, but Jules approached them and shot Damon with a wooden bullet, causing him to fall to the ground also

"Stefan!" Lexa blurted out in panic. "Damon!" Natasha cried out. "Give it up ladies, or do you need to be staked as well?" Jules asked. Lexa grinned, "I wouldn't be so cocky if I were you." She blurted, although she didn't know herself where the cockiness she had at this moment, came from... she didn't know how they were getting out of this.

Natasha zoomed to stand in front of Lexa, and quickly took her hands. Alexia looked up at the Pierce, confused and surprised. "Lexa, I need you to repeat after me." Natasha said, as Lexa nodded, as she siphoned magic from the heretic.

"Phasmatos Morsinus Pyrox Allum..." Natasha began, as Lexa caught on pretty quickly. "Phasmatos Morsinus Pyrox Allum... Phasmatos Morsinus Pyrox Allum... Phasmatos Morsinus Pyrox Allum...."

Sienna, Tyler and Caroline stepped out of the RV, and watched as all of the wolves around them, screamed out in pain, clutching their heads as they fell to their knees.

"What the hell is going on?" Tyler asked, confusedly. Caroline and Sienna's eyes looked around, before landing on the doppelgängers, who were working together harmoniously. "It's Lexa and Natasha." Caroline blurted, before she smiled proudly at Alexia.

"Phasmatos Morsinus Pyrox Allum... Phasmatos Morsinus Pyrox Allum.... Phasmatos Morsinus Pyrox Allum..." The doppelgängers continued, before Lexa stopped to call out to her friends. "Get Stefan and Damon, and run!!" She ordered.

Caroline and Sienna acted quickly, as the Lockwood helped Stefan to his feet, and Caroline helped Damon.

"No wait.. what about you guys?" Damon called out to the doppelgängers, not wanting to leave them behind... not wanting to leave them in any danger. Natasha stopped chanting the spell for a moment to say, "I'll get us out of here. Don't you worry."

Sienna frowned, "I swear to fuck if you leave Lexa behind-" She began but Natasha shut her up, "I will not make that mistake again."

The Salvatores started to move, as was Tyler, but it was clear that Caroline and Sienna didn't trust Natasha with Lexa. The Gilbert broke away from the chant for a moment, as Tasha continued it. "Guys go, I'll be fine I swear!" Lexa called out.

With that, Damon, Stefan, Caroline, Sienna and Tyler were gone. Natasha and Lexa let go of their hands for a moment, stopping the spell. Groans were heard from all of the werewolves. Natasha then grabbed Alexia's hand again, and super sped them away from the scene and out of the woods.

━━━━━ ⋆⋅♥︎⋅⋆ ━━━━━

Stefan and Caroline sat on the doorstep of the porch, as Lexa approached them. Noticing her best friend, Caroline shot up off of the porch. "Lexa!" She called out, before she raced over to embrace the Gilbert.

"Hey, I made it back." Lexa laughed, sounding like she was in pain. Caroline pulled away, but kept her arms around Alexia, "Are you okay?" She asked. Lexa nodded tiredly, "I'm just... exhausted." She confessed. "Well, let's go inside, you can stay over." The Forbes said, leading Lexa over to the front door.

Stefan got to his feet and watched the pair. He couldn't help but to grin to himself... literally anyone could see the connection the girls had.... except for them, apparently.

Caroline opened the door and Lexa instantly walked into the vampires bedroom, flopping onto her bed. Caroline giggled before she turned back to face Stefan.

Caroline could see the look of concern on Stefan's face and said, "I'm fine, Stefan." Stefan sighed, "You don't have to pretend with me. Anybody would be upset after what you went through tonight." He insisted. Caroline just shrugged it off, "I'm okay. I'm not girly little Caroline anymore. I can handle myself." She declared. "Sure you can."

"I just really want to go shower so..." Caroline placed her hand on the door, to push it open again. "Okay. Good night." Stefan insisted. "Good night." As Stefan walked away, Caroline back walked inside and closed the door.

Damon opened the door to find John on the front step. "What do you want?" The Salvatore asked, annoyedly. John replied, "We didn't finish our conversation." Damon sighed, "I'll bite." He said, reluctantly allowing John into the house.

"I've been thinking. Personal feelings aside Damon, I think you and Stefan will do all you can to protect Elena." John began, entering the living room. "I agree with that statement." Damon replied, watching John pace around.

"So I come bearing gifts." John stopped walking around, and opened a folded cloth, which held a silver dagger and a jar full of ash. Damon looked at it, confusedly "What is that?" He asked.

"That there, is how you kill an Original." A chipper voice piped up, as Natasha had just entered the boarding house. "That is a vial of ash from a white oak tree, that dates back to the genesis of the Originals." The Petrova said, approaching the duo, as John seemed surprised that Natasha knew all this. "The dagger must be dipped into the ash, and then plugged into their heart." She concluded.

Damon took the dagger, and examined it. "She's right." John stated, as the Salvatore looked at him, unsure. "I trust Natasha... but how would you know all this?" He asked John. "Isobel. She's very good at finding out things. But, of course, you know that."

Damon frowned, "Where is Isobel?" He demanded. John shrugged, "Let's just say if she accomplishes what she's attempting, Klaus will never set foot in Mystic Falls. Where Elena's concerned, you and I are on the same side."

━━━━━ ⋆⋅♥︎⋅⋆ ━━━━━

Lexa's eyes shot open, as she heard Caroline raise her voice at somebody. She groggily got up off of the Forbes bed, and entered the main hallway, where she found Caroline at the front door, talking to Tyler.

"I lied to protect my friends. I lied to protect you. Don't you get that?!" Caroline asked, as Tyler sighed, "Caroline..."

Caroline frowned, "You just stood there when they were going to kill us. You just stood there! You didn't do anything!" She explained, sounding hurt. "I didn't know what to do!" Tyler confessed as Caroline shook her head, "You help your friend, that's what you do. At least Sienna knew that."

"I'm sorry."

"No, it's too late, because we're not friends anymore. And what happened to me tonight, that will never happen again. So, you take that back to your little werewolf pack, and you get the hell out of my house!" Caroline snapped before she slammed the door closed, in the Lockwood's face.

"Care..?" Lexa asked, softly. Caroline spun around, her face softening when she faced her crush. "Are you.. okay?" The Gilbert asked. Caroline nodded, "I am now." She laughed awkwardly, "I need some sleep.."

━━━━━ ⋆⋅♥︎⋅⋆ ━━━━━

Sometime later Stefan knocked on the door to Caroline's house, not getting an answer. Bonnie and Elena, who stood behind Stefan, shared a glance. "They might already be asleep." Elena suggested.

Stefan wasn't convinced that Caroline was okay, and he knew that Lexa wasn't doing very well either, so he decided to surprise them by bringing Elena and Bonnie over, so they could have a sleepover.

"If they're asleep already, it's fine. Caroline has a spare key somewhere and we can let ourselves inside. We'll let them sleep and make them breakfast in the morning." Bonnie suggested. Elena nodded, "Yeah, that's a great idea." She replied.

Stefan said goodbye to the girls and Bonnie found the spare key, allowing them to get inside. They reached Caroline's bedroom and smiled, as they found Caroline and Lexa both asleep, with their arms loosely wrapped around eachother as they did.

Bonnie turned to Elena, "That's a bit cute." She teased, as Elena tried to hold back a giggle. "They couldn't get any closer to eachother if they tried." The Gilbert laughed.

The girls quietly left the room, deciding to set themselves up in a spare bedroom, leaving the best friends to sleep, peacefully.

━━━━━ ⋆⋅♥︎⋅⋆ ━━━━━

As Stefan got out of his car and approached the boarding house, he stopped in his tracks as he could sense a presence.

The Salvatore turned around, his eyes landing on a familiar figure being his sister, Brooke. By her side stood a small boy, with raven hair. He stood by Brooklyn's side, refusing to leave, as the older Salvatore protectively kept an arm on his shoulder.

At last Brooklyn said, "Hello Brother."
