The Return
Katherine grabs a knife and cuts off John's fingers, including his ring. Then she pushes John against the sink.
"Katherine?!" He looked at her horrified.
Katherine reveals her vampire face, turns out it wasn't Elena. "Hello John, Goodbye John." She shove the knife in his torso.
Elena annd Tori enters the Gilbert house. "Jeremy? Are you up?" Tori called.
They hear a noise in the kitchen and goes toward it. They enter to find John on the floor, bleeding badly. Both girls rushes over to him. Elena tries to stop the bleeding while Tori grabs the phone and calls 911.
"911, what's your emergency" The voice asked.
"Hi, I-I need an ambulance to 2104 Maple Street." Tori answered.
John noticed Katherine watching. "Behind you." He whispered.
"What?" Elena asked.
"Behind you!" He repeated louder.
Tori and Elena turns around and gasps but they see no one there. Elena grabs the bloody knife as they both cautiously approaches the hallway. Katherine speeds around, frightening them, before she runs out the door. Elena suddenly remembers Jeremy.
"Jeremy!" She called. She races up the stairs to his room. "Jeremy! Jeremy!" She finds him unconscious on his bed. "Please, Jeremy, wake up!"Elena shakes Jeremy frantically and he wakes up.
Soon, John is being taken away in the ambulance. Stefan arrives at the house. The officer tries to keep Stefan from entering. "He's okay." Elena told the officer.
Stefan follows Elena upstairs to Jeremy's room. Tori and Jeremy sat on the edge of Jeremy's bed.
"What happened?" Stefan asked.
"He said that Anna gave him her blood and then he took these pills and now… I mean he looks fine but then again so do you. So, I just... I don't know." Elena told him.
Stefan takes Jeremy's face in his hands and examines his eyes. "Look at me."
"I'm fine, okay? I feel exactly the same." Jeremy said.
"Should I call a paramedic up here?" Elena asked. "What should I do?"
Stefan looks at Jeremy's eyes. "No, he's fine."
"You mean I'm not a vampire? Damn it!"
"Don't say that Jeremy!" Tori snapped. "Jer, why would you want that?"
"Did you hear about Anna, what happened to her tonight? She's dead." Jeremy spat.
"Jeremy, Jeremy. Come here, sit down" Stefan pushes Jeremy back down on the bed. He grabs his face in his hands and makes him look at him. "I am very sorry about Anna but it's very important that you listen to me right now. With every passing moment, Anna's blood is leaving your system. If you try to kill yourself right now, you could really die."
Jeremy looks away. "Hey!" Stefan slaps him. "Do you understand me?!"
"Stefan..." Tori whispered.
"Yeah, I understand." Jeremy replied.
"Good." Stefan gets up and stands next to Elena.
"What about the pills that he took?" Elena asked.
"He didn't take enough to die so Anna's blood actually healed him, I bet." Stefan answered.
A policemen knocks on the doorframe of Jeremy's room. "Miss Gilbert?"
"We'll be right there." Elena answered looking at Tori.
"You need to be at the hospital." Stefan told them.
"But..."
"No, no, no, I'll stay here with Jeremy." He said.
"No, I don't need a babysitter." Jeremy muttered.
"Yes, you do." Tori told him.
At the hospital, Matt is sitting alone outside of Caroline's room. Bonnie arrives and walks over to him. "How is Caroline?" She asked.
"She's not good, Bon." Matt answered.
"What happened?"
"We were driving and Tyler heard this noise and he got…"
"A noise?" Bonnie questioned.
"He got this migraine or something and he lost control of the car and ... I thought that Caroline was fine and then ... and then she wasn't so ..."
Sheriff Forbes is at the hospital desk. Damon walks over to her. "Liz, I came as soon as I got the message. Is she okay?" Damon asked.
"She's in surgery, it's ... they're doing everything they can." Sheriff Forbes answered. "I need your help Damon.
"Sure, anything Liz."
"Mayor Lockwood is dead." She told him. "They thought he was a vampire. They put him in the basement."
"Mayor Lockwood was a vampire?" Damon asked.
"No, no." She shakes her head. "A mistake was made, they said he dropped like the others when John's device went off but he… he couldn't have been a vampire, I've known the man my whole life and now Carol Lockwood is gonna want answers and all I can think of right now is Caroline and ..." She begins to cry
"It's okay. It's okay." Damon hugs Liz as she weeps.
Elena and Tori arrives at the hospital, they walk over to Bonnie. "Bonnie. How's Caroline?" Elena asked.
"She's weak." Bonnie answered. "They don't know if she's going to make it."
"What?" Bonnie embraces Elena. Damon is near and peers over at them.
"Is there something that you can do?" Tori spoke up. "Like a spell or something?"
"She doesn't know how, do you?" Damon asked Bonnie.
"No, I don't." She replied.
"No, you don't because it took Emily years to learn a spell like that."
"Well, I can take down a vampire, that spell was easy to learn." Bonnie glared.
"I can give Caroline some blood." Damon suggested.
Elena shook her head. "No, no way."
"No, just enough to heal her." He told her. "She will be safe in the hospital and it will be out of her system in a day, she will be better Elena."
"It's too risky" Tori agreed with Elena.
"Do it." Bonnie says, she noticed Tori's and Elena's shock expressions. "This is Caroline. We can't let her die. Do it."
"If I do this, you and me, call a truce?" He asked her.
"No. But you'll do it anyway. For Tori." She smirked.
Bonnie leaves with Elean, leaving Tori and on their alone.
"I know this is probably the last thing you want to do right now but we should talk about what happened tonight." Damon spoke about their 'kiss'.
"Yeah, one of the tomb vampires got into the house and almost killed John." Tori replied.
"What?" Damon asked. "When? What are you talking about? After I left?"
"You were there?" Tori questioned.
"Come on, Tori, you know I was."
Tori looked at him confused. "When were you at the house?"
"Really?" He questioned. "Earlier, on the porch, we were talking, all cathartic, feelings exposed. Come on, we kissed, Tori."
"Okay, I don't have time for this Damon." She tried to walk away but Damon grabs her hand. "If you want to forget what happened fine but I can't."
Elena and Jenna arrives. Damon moves away while Jenna glares at him, but listens in. "Tori, did Jenna tell me she was at the fire department?" Elena asked.
"No, you didn't" Tori told Jenna.
"How would you know?" Jenna asked her. "You was outside with Damon"
"Oh.." Damon suddenly realizes that Marie was the one he kissed, not Tori. Tori, Jenna and Elena look at him with confusion. "Mmm, you got to be kidding me." He realizes that he has said that out loud. He looks at Tori, Jenna and Elena and walks away.
Jeremy is asleep in his bed. Stefan paces beside his bed, still watching out for him. He hears the front door open. It's Katherine posing as Elena. He goes down the stairs.
"Hey!" Stefan greeted, "How was Caroline?"
"Not good." She answered. She embraces him. "Just what I needed."
She tries to kiss him, but Stefan, realizing it's Katherine, grabs her by the back of her neck and bares his fangs at her. He throws her on the couch. Katherine gets up without missing a beat.
"Katherine."
"At least we fooled one brother." She smirk. He rushes over to her and pushes her against the wall. "Feel better?" She asked.
He pushes her against another wall as someone begins to open the front door. Stefan is distracted by this and Katherine takes the opportunity to grab his arm, bend it behind his back, and throw him down on the floor. She smiles and rushes out of the house. Elena, Tori and Damon enter the house. Stefan is on the floor but stands up immediately.
"Stefan?" Elena walked over to him.
"Elena."
"What's happened?" Tori spoke up.
"Katherine and Marie happened." Damon answered.
Damon and Stefan are in the kitchen. "Did she say what she wanted?" Damon asked Stefan.
"No." He replied.
"They certainly knows how to make an entrance."
"She said they fooled one of us, at least." Stefan told him. "What does that mean?"
"She pretended to be Tori when I showed up earlier tonight." Damon answered.
Tori and Elena enters the room. "We told Jeremy, we can't lie to him anymore." Tori announced. Stefan walks towards Elena. "Are you alright?" He asked.
"No, I'm not alright." Elena answered. "I thought that with all the tomb vampires gone things would get better."
"I know. We all did."
"Both Katherine and Marie was in this house," Tori announced. "That means she's been invited in, what are we gonna do?"
"Move." Damon said.
"Not funny" Tori shook her head, she sat down. "Very helpful, thank you." Elena sits down beside her.
"Marie and Katherine wants you two dead; there's zero you can do about it; you would be dead but you're not." Damon says. "So clearly they have other plans."
"Right and we need to find out what those other plans are and not provoke them in the process." Stefan announced. "What happened tonight when you thought Marie was Tori?"
"To risk another frown line encroaching on a very crowded forehead. We... kissed." Damon told him.
"And you thought it was me?" Tori asked.
"What do you mean you kissed?"
"Well, you know, when two lips pucker and they go." He puckers his lips and makes kissing noises. Stefan rushes at him with his super speed but Damon uses his super speed as well and stands next to Tori. "Don't be obvious, Stefan."
Stefan starts towards Damon again but Tori gets up and puts her hand in front of Stefan. "Stefan wait, he kissed Marie, not me." She looks at Damon. "I wouldn't do that. We don't have time for this guys."
"John must know something. There has to be a reason why Katherine tried to kill him." Elena spoke up.
"They're Marie and Katherine." Damon says. "They love to play games and you're fooling yourself if you think you're going to find out what they're been up to before they wants you to know."
"No, actually Elena's right, John could know something through Isobel." Stefan explained, "Your mother, she was in touch with Katherine so maybe we can go to the hospital and get him to talk."
"I've got a better idea."
"What's that?" Tori asked.
"I'm just gonna ignore the bitches." He answered. "See you."
"Is that smart?" Elena questioned.
"If they thinks they're been ignored it will lure them out, they'll make a move."
"Yeah? And then what?" Stefan asked.
"Stake them; rip their head off, something poetic. We'll see."
At Mystic falls hospital, Bonnie is talking with Matt. "You've been here all night?" She asked.
"Yeah, with the sheriff." Matt replied.
"No one else?"
"Stefan's brother Damon stopped by late last night." Matt told her.
"How is Caroline today?" Bonnie asked.
"See for yourself."
They go in Caroline's room. Caroline is awake and looking completely healthy. "Jersey Shore's on." Bonnie embraces her. "Careful, still a little sore."
"Sorry." Bonnie apologized.
"Its okay but they say I'm healing really quick."
"My turn." Matt says, he kisses her.
Bonnie starts to cry from joy.
"Oh, isn't he cute?" Caroline asked. "Why are you crying?"
"I'm just happy you're okay." She replied.
"Oh, I love you guys!"
"We love you." The three of them embrace each other.
At the Lockwood Mansion, Carol Lockwood is talking with Sheriff Forbes and Damon. "I want to know exactly who's responsible for killing my husband." Carol says.
"I'm looking into it but you have to be straight with me." Sheriff Forbes answered. "Is there any reason Richard was affected by the vampire device?
"What are you implying? That he was one of them?" Carol questioned.
"No, no. No one's implying that." Damon speaks up.
"Your deputy screwed up, plain and simple which makes you responsible."
"Carol..." Damon said.
"Your husband is the one who helped John Gilbert execute his idiot plan in the first place." Liz spat.
"Liz..."
Carol shook her head. "Someone got my husband killed."
"We're all on edge here. You've suffered a great loss. The whole town has. We have to stick together, okay? Trust each other, we'll get through this." Damon told her.
Tyler is at the front door, greeting guests. A big jeep drives up to the front of the mansion and a man steps out. "So the black sheep returns." Tyler says.
"Tyler?" Mason asked.
"Yeah."
"What happened to you?" He asked, "In my mind you're twelve years old."
"Then that's two years older than the last time you saw me, Uncle Mason." They embrace each other.
"Good to see you again." Mason told him.
"It's good to see you too. Come on inside."
At Mystic Falls hospital, Stefan, Elena and Tori are walking down the hallway to John's room. "Ready for this?" Stefan asked. They enter the room together.
"John?" Elena questioned.
He opens his eyes and panics when he sees Elena and Tori. He tries to press the button to call the nurse, but Stefan grabs his hand and takes it away from him.
"We're Tori and Elena. We're not - we're not Katherine and Marie." Tori announced.
"We know Katherine did this to you." Stefan stated.
"We need to know why." Elena said.
"Where is she?" John asked.
"You tell us."
"I don't know." John replied. He tries to sit up but Stefan pushes him back down. "You're a little too weak to play tough guy. Why don't you just sit back and answer a few questions?"
Elena places the Gilbert ring into John's hand. "Please, tell us why they're here. What do they want?"
John doesn't respond. "She'll try again; we can't help you if you don't confide in us." Stefan told him.
"In you?" John scoffed.
"In your daughters then."
"My daughters should have driven a stake through yours and Damon's hearts by now." He looks at Elena and Tori. "I never spoke with her directly, she never trusted me." He looks at Stefan. "So either kill me or get out because I can't stand the sight of you with my daughters."
"You see the world with such hatred. It's gonna get you killed." Elena spat. She walks out of the room with Tori following.
Stefan is alone with John. Stefan hesitates, and then he rushes over to John and chokes him. "You may be okay with dying but I have a better plan for you." He bites his wrist and puts it in John's mouth and forces his blood down John's throat.
"You now have my blood in your system, all I have to do is kill you. Now take my advice. Leave town. Neither Tori or Elena doesn't want you here. You've got about 24 hours before the blood leaves your system, that's enough time to disappear or so help me God, I will turn you into a vampire and I will watch you hate yourself more than you already do." He releases him. John gasps in horror. "The clock starts now." He leaves the room.
At the Lockwood mansion, Damon is watching Mason and Carol. He talks with Sheriff Forbes. "Who's the guy with Carol?" He asked.
"It's the mayor's younger brother, Mason Lockwood." Liz answered.
"Is he on the council? Like John Gilbert was when he rolled in?" Damon questioned.
"He's nothing like John. For one, he's not an ass. He's not a believer either. He wants nothing to do with the council. He's too preoccupied finding the perfect wave." She told him.
"Thanks." Sheriff Forbes walks away. "See you." Damon continues to watch Mason and Carol.
Just outside, Marie and Katherine walks towards the entrance of the Lockwood house. They were pretending to be Elena and Tori. Tyler stops them and grabs their hands in appreciation.
"Hey Elena, Torie" He greeted. "Thanks for coming. Come on in." He invited them in. Katherine and Marie enters the house, smiling.
Outside of Mystic Fall Hospital, Elena, Tori and Stefan are walking away.
"Hey, I just have to swing by home to pick up Jenna and Jeremy so we can go to the Lockwoods'." Elena stated. "How did you leave him there, John?"
"I ... I asked him to leave town." Stefan answered.
They stop walking and look at each other. "Asked? You threatened him." Tori asked.
"Yeah, I threatened him."
'Good. I want him gone, Stefan." Tori announced.
"Same." Elena agreed. "I know that I shouldn't feel that way but I don't want someone like that in my life. Or Jeremy's life. Or Tori's"
"I know." Stefan and Elena embraces each other.
"So what now?" Elena asked.
"Now" They pull apart. "I need to go find Damon."
"Please Stefan, don't fight with him." Tori begged.
"No, Tori, he thought-"
"That's not the problem, Marie and Katherine are." She said. "They're already messing with both of your heads and Damon is not stable when it comes to Marie. The last thing we need is to make things worse."
At the Lockwood Mansion, Damon and Bonnie are talking. "Did you know the Gilbert device affected Tyler Lockwood?" Bonnie questioned.
"Well, I know it took the mayor down." Damon replied.
"Don't you want to know why?"
"Yes Bonnie, I would love to know why a non-vampire was tortured by the vampire torture device that you let John Gilbert use against us." He hissed. "Speaking of your guilt, how's Caroline?"
"She's much better." Bonnie replied.
"You're welcome."
"No, you're welcome." Bonnie said.
"Why am I welcome?" Damon asked.
"You live to see another day." She told him.
"No good deal goes unpunished with you, does it?" He asked.
"Doesn't undue the bad. I know what you are Damon, you might have Tori and the sheriff and everybody else fooled but not me." She told him. "One wrong move and I'm gonna take you out."
"Now you need to stop with the witches' brew. You're starting to believe your own press."
She looks at Damon. Damon starts to hold his head in pain. Bonnie stops after a while. "Oh, I'm sorry, you were saying?" She walks out out to the front porch and over to Marie, who Bonnie thinks is Tori. "Oh my god! Damon drives me crazy. He's walking around like he's some kind of hero for healing Caroline when it's his fault all of this happened in the first place."
"I'm sorry Bonnie." Marie replied. "What Damon's done is just awful."
"Okay, better. Hateful Damon moment over." Bonnie exhales, she touches her arm and immediately senses that she is not Tori. "I've got to find Tyler and pay my respects. I'll be back." She lied.
"Okay."
Bonnie walks away as Marie watches her go. She walks into a room and immediately dials Tori on her phone. "Hello?" Marie answered.
"Tori? Where are you?" Bonnie questioned.
"Bonnie, I know we're late. We're getting in the car now. I'll be there in 5. " She hangs up.
Bonnie is shocked. She turns around to leave but sees Marie behind her with Katherine beside her. She gasps.
"We haven't officially met. I'm Katherine." Katherine greeted. "And this is my sister Marie"
"I know who you are."
"Of course you do. You're the best friend right? I've been putting all the pieces of Tori and Elena's life together. Isobel told me it was a bit of a puzzle. I do know who Jenna and Jeremy are..." Katherine says.
"And I met that delicious ex-boyfriend Matt, who's sweet on Caroline." Marie added.
"And then there's you, the vampire-hating Bennett witch." Katherine pointed at her. "Did I do good?" She grinned.
Bonnie tries to leave the room, but Marie super speeds around her and blocks her way out. Bonnie uses her migraine inducing spell on Marie. She feigns being hurt. "I've been around a long time Bonnie; you're gonna have to do better than that."
Marie looks at her sister. Katherine grabs Bonnie by the throat and pushes her against the wall. She vamps out. Bonnie open the doors with her powers to expose them to the other guests. Katherine's face goes back to normal. "Nice."
Stefan is standing outside the doorway. "Katherine, Marie".
"Stefan." Katherine smiled.
"Leave her alone."
"Okay."
She releases Bonnie. The two sister leaves the room. Katherine traces her finger across his chest as she walks past him. Bonnie and Stefan look at each other and Stefan follows them out into the main room.
"What are you two doing here?" Stefan asked.
Katherine grabs a drink off a tray. "After the way you treated me last night, Marie and I thought that a public place would be less violent."
"You're taking this a little far, don't you think?" Stefan questioned. "Tori or Elena could walk in at any moment."
"Mmm, but that's part of the fun, Stefan." She picks up a cherry from the food table. "Damon's here, somewhere. I've been avoiding him. He thinks I'm Tori"
She puts the cherry in her mouth, but when she sees Matt, she takes it back out.
Matt walks up to them. "Hey guys." He greeted.
"Hey Matt." Tori smiled. "I heard that Caroline is doing much better. Her recovery was practically miraculous, you must be so relieved."
"I am." He nodded. "Thanks Tori." He leaves.
"Uh! His eyes are so blue!"
"You need to leave now." Stefan announced.
"You're hurting my feelings, Stefan." Katherine pouted. "Damon was much happier to see Marie, then again he thought I was your girlfriend's sister so..."
"I'm not doing this with you."
"Okay, how about we don't have a couple's fight in front of all of your friends? Walk with me." Katherine suggested.
"This place is boring me, I'm going now." Marie announced. "Tell Damon I said hi" She winked before leaving.
"Just tell me what you're doing here." Stefan stated.
"Maybe I missed you. Is that an acceptable reason?" Katherine asked.
"What game are you playing?"
"Why, you want to play with me?" She smiled playfully.
"I don't know." Stefan replied. "How can I play if I don't know the rules?"
"No rules, Stefan." Katherine shook her head. "Don't you remember? No rules."
Katherine walks out of the room and looks back at Stefan. Stefan looks at her. She holds her hand out for him. Stefan walks towards her. She smiles and turns around, still holding her hand out for Stefan to hold. Stefan walks right past her, ignoring her silent request to hold hands. Katherine drops her hand and follows Stefan.
Tori, Elena, Jenna and Jeremy arrive at the Mansion. "Looks like the whole town has turned out." Jenna stated.
"Yeah" Elena replied. "Well he is ... he was the mayor."
"Why don't they save it for the funeral?" Jeremy asked.
"That's what people do. The Lockwoods were here for us when we went through this. It'll be quick; we'll drop off the food and pay our respects and go." Jenna told him.
"In and out? It sounds like a plan" Jeremy said.
Tori sees Damon. "You guys go ahead, I'll be right there, okay?" She goes toward Damon. "Hey, how are you doing?"
"Great Tori. Walking on the sunshine, thanks for asking." His voice was full of sarcasm.
She gave him a look. "Damon."
"Tori" He mocked.
"We should be able to talk about this. Damon, we're close enough now." She told him. "I really want to know how you are doing."
"I kissed you; I thought you kissed me back. Doppelgänger hijinks ensued. How do you think I'm doing?" He asked.
"I think that you're hurt." Tori says.
"No, I don't get hurt, Tori."
"No, you don't admit that you get hurt. You get angry and cover it up and then you do something stupid."
"You're scared. You think Marie is gonna send me off the deep end, don't you? I don't need her for that." He begins to leave but stops. "You know, why - why is it such a surprise that I would kiss you?"
"That's not a surprise." She answered. "I'm surprised that you thought I would kiss you back."
"Now I'm hurt." Damon turns to leave again, but Bonnie runs up to them. "Tori!"
"Bonnie, what happened?"
Jeremy walks into the Mayor's office. Tyler is in there alone, drinking from a flask. "Sorry, I was just looking for the-"
"Bathroom is down the hall." Tyler cut him short.
"Hey look...I'm sorry about your dad." Jeremy told him.
"Today has been a big day of sorries from people who really don't give a crap."
"I remember when my dad died; I had a house full of strangers telling me what a great guy he was." Jeremy remembered. "Anyway, I know how hard all this is."
"The difference is in your case it was true. My dad was a dick." Tyler said.
"Yeah, yeah he was."
"I found this in his desk." He holds the flask to Jeremy, he hesitates. "He won't mind, he's dead."
"Yeah, you know what, sure. Why not?" Jeremy takes the flask and drinks from it.
Mason arrives. "Hey, what's going on in here Tyler?" He asked.
"Nothing, nothing." Tyler replied.
Mason looks at Jeremy. "You have somewhere else to be?" Jeremy gives him the flask and leaves. Mason drinks from it and gives the flask to Tyler.
Katherine and Stefan are outside, walking. "The Lockwoods have a lot more land than they used to. The possessions from all the tomb vampires built them quite a fortune." Katherine explained.
"Yeah, why did you and Marie want them dead? You're the ones who turned most of them."
"There's nothing more annoying than a vengeful vampire, Stefan." Katherine replied. "Just ask John Gilbert."
They both stop walking. "You haven't changed at all, have you?" Stefan says.
"But you have." Katherine smiled. "You're stronger. Meaner. It's sexy."
"Don't flirt with me Katherine." He shook his head. "I'm not Damon and your not Marie; I haven't spent one hundred and forty five years obsessed with you."
"Yeah, based on your choice of women, I'd say otherwise. Although I'll admit it does bother me that you've falling in love with someone else."
"I was never in love with you, Katherine." Stefan said. "You compelled me. So none of my feelings were real."
"Believe what you want, Stefan, but I know the truth and deep down, so do you." Katherine presses her finger against his chest.
"The truth? Well the truth is, you're the same lying, selfish, manipulative bitch that you've always been." He told her. "So, whatever it is that brought you here, why don't you just get on with it and leave town? Because if you don't, I will hunt you down and I will rip your heart out."
"You want to know why I'm here Stefan?" She asked, "I came back for you."
"Well the problem, Katherine, is that I hate you."
She takes an iron stem from the ground and stabs him in the stomach with it. "You hate me, huh? That sound like the beginning of a love story, Stefan, not the end of one." She removes the iron stem and flees.
Elena and Stefan are sitting on a bench on the Lockwood grounds. Elena is wiping Stefan's wound with a cloth. "You gonna be okay?" Elena asked.
"Yeah, it will heal." He answered.
She looked at him. "That's not what I meant."
"I was trying to figure her out. I was playing along and I let her get to me."
Damon arrives with Tori. "I tried to track her but she's gone. Oooh, cover up, Fabio." Stefan pulls his shirt down. "We got a crazy ex on the loose." He looks at Elena. "You better watch out, looks like Katherine is trying to steal your guy."
Tori scoffs. Damon looks at her. "And Marie don't like competition." He winked.
"That's not what's happening." Stefan spoke.
"Isn't it? I mean it's only fair since I went after her." He pointed at Tori.
"I'm gonna go check on Jenna and Jeremy." Elena announced, she looked at her sister. "Coming?"
Tori nodded. "Let us know when you guys are done." Both Elena and Tori leaves.
"So what's it gonna be huh? Fight to the death?" Damon pretends to punch with his fists as Stefan snorts. "Go ahead, make your threats, stake your claim."
"I'm not gonna fight you." Stefan stated.
"Why?!" Damon asked. "I'd fight me."
"Katherine and Marie are gonna try to play us against each other, you do know that right?"
"Brother, don't you worry, our bond is unbreakable." Damon told him.
"We need to stay united against her. So yes, as much as I would like to kill you, I'm not gonna fight you." He shook his hea.d
"I kissed Tori."
"Because you feel something for her," Stefan announced. "Because you actually care and I'm not gonna let Marie come in here and destroy that part of you that is finally, after all of this time, willing to feel something. She will try to break you, they will try to break us and how we respond to that will define us. It's our choice. So no, I'm not gonna fight you." He looks at Damon and leaves.
At the Gilbert house, John is preparing his luggage. Jeremy enters the room. "Jeremy."
"What are you doing here?" Jeremy asked.
"I'm packing, leaving." He replied.
"So, you figured you'd kill all your evil vampires and then you leave town?" Jeremy questioned.
"Not all, but enough. For now." He nodded. "Can you tell Elena and Tori I said goodbye?"
"Why don't you tell them yourself?"
J"You know Jeremy, I was taught to hate them, the vampires." He told him. "That's what I know; that's what your father knew."
"My father would have seen things differently." Jeremy argued.
"No, he may have done things differently but there's no other way to see it."
"That ring on your finger, the one's that supposed to protect you, that was my father's right?" Jeremy asked.
"Yeah."
"Then why didn't it protect him, why is he still dead?" Jeremy questioned.
"What happened to your parents wasn't supernatural, it was an accident." John said. "There's nothing that can save us from that."
"I wonder what he'd think of all this, of me.'
"He would think that you're still young." John replied. "You're still finding yourself but you are a Gilbert and you've been exposed to this town's darkest secret and with that comes responsibility."
"I don't believe in that family legacy stuff." Jeremy said.
"Sooner or later you'll have to."
Tyler is in his father's office. He picks up a picture of him with his parents and looks at it. Suddenly, he smashes it against the desk. He proceeds to break all the other things on the desk. Carol walks in the room in shock. "
"Tyler! What are you doing?" Carol asked.
"I hate him."
"Oh, don't say that, honey." She gently touches his shoulder to try and calm him. Tyler shoves her onto the couch.
"Let go of me!" He snapped.
Mason enters the room and rushes over to Tyler. He pushes him down on the floor.
"Get off of me!" Tyler demanded.
"Hey, Tyler! Hey, hey!" Mason tried to calm him.
"I said get off me!"
"Tyler!"
"Get off me!"
"Look at me. Look at me. Calm down. Settle down." Tyler stops fighting Mason. Carol gets up, but is still in shock.
"Oh, God." She breathed.
Salvatore Boarding House, Damon walks into the living room and pours himself a drink. He starts to walk out but stops. "Very brave of you to come here." He turns his head.
Marie is sitting on the couch. "I wanted to say goodbye." She told him.
"Leaving so soon?" He asked.
"I know where I'm not wanted."
"Don't pout. It's not attractive on a woman your age." Damon smirked.
Marie scoffs. "Ouch." Damon drinks his drink and starts to walk out of the room. Marie superspeeds in front of him. "What, no goodbye kiss?"
"Why don't I kill you instead? What are you doing here?" He questioned.
"Nostalgia, curiosity, et. cetera." She replied.
"I'm better at the enigmatic one-liners, Marie. What are you up to?"
"Trust me Damon, when I'm up to something, you'll know it. Come on. Kiss me. Or kill me. Which will it be, Damon? We both know that you're only capable of one." She inches closer towards his lips. He turns and walks away. She rushes in front of him again and grabs him by the throat. She pushes him down to the floor and lays on top of him. "My sweet, innocent Damon."
He turns himself on top of her and grabs her by the throat. After a few seconds of hesitation, he kisses her.
"That's more like it."
They continue to kiss. Marie superspeeds Damon against the wall. She rips his shirt open. They continue kissing. Damon knocks books off a nearby table and pushes Marie down onto the table. He continues kissing her neck, then pauses.
"Okay, wait, brief pause." Damon said. Marie pushes him off of her and stands up.
"I have a question. Answer it and it's back to fireworks and rockets red glare. Answer it right and I'll forget the last one hundred and forty five years that I've spent missing you. I'll forget how much I loved you, I'll forget everything and we can start over. This could be our defining moment because we have the time. That's the beauty of eternity."
He gently caresses her face. "I just need the truth, just once."
"Stop." She place a finger on his lips. "I already know your question and its answer. The truth is ... I've never loved you. You was just a toy...part of the game" She takes his hands off her face and leaves an upset Damon standing there.
Tori exits the bathroom leaving Elena in there. She goes into her bedroom. Damon is sitting on her bed. She is startled by his appearance. "Oh god, you scared me."
"Just doing my part in the neighborhood watch." He told her.
"Thanks. For, um, for looking out for us." She thanked him. "For me."
" That's me, your trusty bodyguard. Calm in crisis."
"Have you been drinking?" Tori asked. Damon holds his forefinger and thumb a small distance apart, indicating that he has been drinking a little. "And you're upset. That's not a good combination."
"No, I'm not upset." He laughed a little. "Upset is an emotion specific to those who care."
"Come on, Damon. That's a lie. You care."
Damon looks up at her. "You're surprised that I thought you would kiss me back? You can't imagine that I believed that you would want to?" He questioned.
"Damon..." She whispered.
"That what we've been doing here means something? You're the liar, Tori. There is something going on between the two of us and you know it." He gets up and walks towards her. "And you're lying to me, you're lying to Elena, and you're lying to Stefan, and, most of all, you're lying to yourself. I can prove it."
"No."
He grabs her face in his hands and kisses her. She pulls away from him. "Damon, don't! What's wrong with you?"
"Lie about this."
"Stop it!" Tori snapped. "You're better than this, come on."
"That's where you're wrong." Damon tires to kiss her again, but Tori is prepared this time and pushes him back. "No, no, no, Damon! I care about you. Listen to me, I care about you. I do but...this can't happen"
Jeremy hears the commotion and looks in the doorway. "Tori, what's going on in here?" He asked.
Damon and Tori look at him. She pulls her wrists out of Damon's grasp. "Nothing, Jeremy." She replied. "It's okay, just go back to bed."
"No, it's not okay, Tori." He looks at Jeremy and then at Tori. "He wants to be a vampire." He rushes at Jeremy and pushes him agaisnt the wall.
"No, Damon, stop it!" Tori called.
Damon is choking Jeremy. "You want to shut out the pain? It's the easiest thing in the world. The part of you that cares just goes away, all you have to do is flip the switch and snap!" He snaps Jeremy's neck. Elena hears the commotion and runs in the room to see Jeremy on the floor, dead.
"Damon! NO!"
Both girls rushes over to Jeremy and knelt either side of him. Damon looks at Tori and leaves. Elena clutches Jeremy in horror and then she notices John's magical ring on Jeremy's finger. She is slightly relieved by this.
At the Lockwood mansion, Tyler is sitting on the couch, Mason enters the room and sits down across from him. "Your mom's out." He told Tyler. "I think she popped a couple of pharmacueticals."
"I didn't mean to freak her out." Tyler admitted. "I don't know why I get like this."
"It's the curse of being a Lockwood."
"So how'd you get the chill gene?" Tyler asked.
"I didn't. I've just learned how to manage it." Mason answered.
"I don't want to be like this anymore." Tyler told him.
"None of us do. That's why it's a curse, Tyler."
Tori and Elena is on the floor, Elena is cradling Jeremy in her arms. Stefan is standing behind them. "He saw the ring, that's why he did it. He knew." Stefan said.
"He didn't see the ring." Tori shook her head.
"It's Marie." Stefan replied. "She got under his skin. She undid everything that was good about him."
"There's nothing good about him. Stefan, not anymore." Tori told him, "He's decided what he wants. He doesn't want to feel, he wants to be hated, it's just easier that way. He got his wish."
Tori start to criy. "I hate him" She whispered the tears away.
Stefan kneels down next to her and comforts her. He patted her knee. "I know. I know."
Suddenly, Jeremy wakes up. Stefan takes his face and looks in his eyes. "Is he okay? Stefan, is he okay?" Elena questioned.
"He's okay. Shhh, you're okay."
"He killed me! Damon killed me!" Jeremy announced.
Elena embraces him and smiles. "It's okay. Oh God."
At Mystic Falls Hospital, Caroline is in bed, sleeping. She wakes up and sees Katherine and Marie, who she thought was Elena and Tori.
"Elena?" She questioned, "Tori?"
"Hey Caroline." Katherine greeted.
"What are you doing here?"
"My name is Marie and this is my sister Katherine." Marie told her. "I was hoping you could give the Salvatore brothers a message for me."
"What are you talking about? What message?" Caroline questioned.
"Game on."
"What?" Marie grabs one of Caroline's pillows and pushes it down over her face. Caroline screams and struggles until she runs out of air and dies. Marie takes the pillow off and places it next to Caroline. She turned to sister, "Game on" She repeated. They walk out of the room.
