After Eira told Damon that Kol was just flirty and there was no changing that, he had calmed down slightly. But it was enough calmness to get back to the matter at hand which was resurrected witches.
Damon had found three dugout graves at the Lafayette Cemetery which left the question of who the fourth resurrected person was. That's when Eira started to get a bad feeling and that led her to the sketches in Davina's room which a formed a picture of Celeste, Elijah's dead lover.
Eira didn't understand it and neither did Stefan, who was helping her. Damon had left to go find Sophie Devereaux, who might or might not have a clue about what was happening in the witch community.
Eira was putting the sketches together along with Stefan and they finally got them together to form Celeste. Eira ran her fingers over the sketches and her supernatural sense for terrible things kicked in. Except this time it was much more overwhelming.
Her hands started to shake and goosebumps formed on her skin. Her head got a painful headache that felt like her brain was being spliced open. She clutched her head and her vision started becoming foggy.
She started entering some sort of tunnel vision, not seeing what was in the present. She heard Stefan shout her name, but then she couldn't hear anything.
Her vision became clearer and she saw she was looking into some warehouse. She saw a magical rune on the ground made up of salt and there was a desiccated body inside it. Her vision blurred and then cleared. She was suddenly much closer and she could see the desiccated body inside. It was Rebekah.
Eira gasped and her vision became foggy again. She was back in Davina's room with Stefan, only Elijah was also there now. Stefan was shaking her and she saw his lips moving, but she couldn't hear what he was saying. But her hearing came slowly and she realized he was shouting.
Eira started to gasp for breath. She sucked in breaths of air as she felt like she didn't have any. She realized she was sitting on the edge of the bed in the room and she attempted to stand.
"You should probably stay seated," Elijah had his hand on her forearm, keeping her from getting up and she nodded. He took his hand away.
"Eira, what happened? You weren't breathing and your eyes were fogged over," Stefan said, worrying.
"Where's Rebekah?" Eira asked with deep breaths. "She's in danger and we need to find her."
"I'll...I'll go call her," Stefan seemed to take a moment to register what she was saying before he answered and then he left the room.
"How do you know this?" Elijah questioned once Stefan left.
"I saw it," Eira answered. "Somehow."
Eira attempted to get up again and Elijah spoke, "Eira, I don't think that's wise."
Eira was standing and she was fine, "We're finding Rebekah. So, come on."
Eira held out her hand for Elijah to take and he raised his eyebrows towards her, "If Rebekah's in danger as you say, then it's not safe for you to come."
"Elijah!" she exclaimed in a scolding manner.
Elijah took her hand and said, "Niklaus told you to stay here."
Eira gave him a pointed look, "There's a thing called breaking the rules, Elijah."
"I'm well aware," Elijah answered and sighed, "Shall we go then?"
Eira smiled and started walking with Elijah following behind her, holding her hand. She found Stefan in the courtyard, holding Thierry against the wall by his throat.
Elijah let go of her hand and took many steps until he was in front of her, wanting to protect her from harm.
Stefan had shouted, "Where is she?"
"If you value your life, I'd suggest you start talking," Elijah threatened.
"She asked me to keep an eye out on witch stuff. I found something, and when I showed her, we were jumped by some guy. He desiccated her with his touch," Theirry explained.
"And you just left her?" Stefan questioned, incredulously. Stefan, Elijah, and Eira were now agitated with Thierry.
"What was I supposed to do, fight some warlock that took out an Original?" Thierry questioned, rhetorically.
"Where was this, exactly?" Elijah asked.
"The docks, warehouse 57. I was just doing what she asked. You cannot tell Klaus about this," Thierry begged, but then Elijah vamp sped over to him and snapped his neck.
"I'll take that into consideration," Elijah said and then he turned to Eira, deeply worried for her safety. "You do not leave my sight. Understand?"
"Wait, no. She's not coming," Stefan protested.
"You're sister is very stubborn, Stefan. I'd rather her come than for her to follow us after we've left as she'd probably do," Elijah explained to Stefan.
"Alright. Come on," Stefan looked at Eira and she walked with them, leaving for the docks to find Rebekah.

Damon walked into Rousseau's looking for Sophie Devereaux but he found the place to be a wreck with liquor bottles littered everywhere. Marcel and Camille were the only ones in the bar.
Camille saw Damon and her eyes narrowed into slits, remembering that he compelled her. She got up off the bar stool she was sitting at and confronted Damon, "There was no welcome sign on the door, so you can show yourself out."
"Looks like someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed today," Damon stated. "What's wrong with you?"
"You compelled me," Camille said, flabbergasted.
"Oh, right," Damon said, remembering. "Don't take it personally, honey. You weren't the first person I've compelled and you won't be the last."
"You won't compel anymore people if I have anything to say about it," Camille threatened.
"Listen, Cami, I didn't come here to have you irritate me. I came here looking for Sophie. She's clearly not here, so I'm gonna leave to go find her and you're gonna get your wish to have me gone. Everyone's happy," Damon said, quite rudely.
Damon left and Camille stood there quite irritated with the elder Salvatore. She turned around to Marcel, "How can someone be so uncaring and irritating?"
"I haven't exactly gotten to know the guy. But he's Eira's family. I wouldn't mess with him," Marcel advised.
"I feel bad that she's related to him."
