Less than two hours later Scarlett was back in Mystic Falls, the drive from Richmond didn't take too long once her spark plugs had been put back into her car. When she returned home Scarlett didn't realize how much she missed her home even though she had been only gone from her for a few hours. When Scarlett arrived back she found that little of the house had been packed up and that Lucrezia and Violetta were still being allowed to roam around the house, which actually pleased Scarlett. If they had sent her pets off to the shelter like they did her then Scarlett would not have hesitated to kill them after everything that they had put her through.
"Meow…" Lucrezia said, showing Scarlett affection for the first time in days ever since Damon had brought Violetta into the family. She was glad to see that her cats had missed her and still wanted her here despite the fact that Stefan and Damon didn't want her around here.
"I know Lucrezia, we'll make the two of them pay for trying to send me away." Scarlett said as she picked both her cats up and led them to the upstairs master bathroom where she started to run a ran a bath before filling it with bleach. If they thought they were going to get away with sending her to her mother's then they were sorely mistaken. If there was one thing Scarlett knew other than protecting the family secret than it was revenge. Once the bath was half way run Scarlett dumped several of Damon's favourite shirts and a leather jacket into the tub before placing some of Stefan's most prized books into the bath. It would teach them to try and make her stay with her mother against her will. After she had placed said items into the bath, Scarlett made her way back downstairs to the living room to take a nap on the couch, the whole day had been very stressful which had made her very tired hence the need for a nap. Scarlett slept until the late evening when Stefan came home with Elena and he had woken her up by gently shaking her until she awoke.
"Scarlett what are you doing here? You're supposed to be with Claire." Stefan stated moments after Scarlett rose and wearily looked around her surroundings as to get her bearings. As she had spent most of the day at her mother's house it took Scarlett a little time to relax and realize where she was.
"Well she let me come back after I explained to her that there was another vampire in town and that you and Uncle Damon were in danger of being of discovered as vampires." Scarlett retorted.
"There was a reason we sent you away to your mother's Scarlett and it was for your own protection, you being with her makes your life much safer then it would be if you stayed with Damon and I so you have to go back. I know that you have problems with Claire but I need you to go back and stay with her." Stefan began in an exasperated tone of voice, it was clear that he was not happy about her being back in town
"This is my house." Scarlett began as she poked Stefan repeatedly several times in the chest to make sure that he got the point. He needed to know that she belonged here and she was not going her anytime in the near future. "And I will not be or banished or exiled from it no matter what you or Uncle Damon say. This is my house, I grew up here and have live here every single day of my life and I belong here no matter what anybody says and I will not leave here. I am a Salvatore and I belong here."
"Scarlett…" Stefan began.
"You don't get an opinion in this any longer Uncle Stefan, mom let me come back as she realized that this is where I belong and I'll tell you this now, I'm not going anywhere no matter what you and Uncle Damon say unless you want me to go to Sheriff Forbes and the rest of the founders council and tell them the truth about the Salvatore family. That we've had vampires in our family for the last hundred and forty five years and they are behind all the vampire attacks recently. So unless you want that to happen I would suggest you shut up and go along with my plan because form now on I am in charge Uncle Stefan!" Scarlett angrily retorted.
Stefan looked at Scarlett momentarily before turning his attention to Elena before turning back to Scarlett and dragging Scarlett towards the direction of the library to make sure she was out of ear length of Elena. "This isn't what you think it is about Scarlett!"
"Really? Well I think this entire thing is about you and Uncle Damon taking me away from my home and sending me to live me with my bloody mother who I haven't seen in years in rode for the two of you to take care of your ruddy vampire business!" Scarlett hissed in annoyance as she hated that Stefan was trying to tell her something else that was as far from the truth ads it could so possibly be.
"Scarlett please! You have to trust me on this! I'm doing this for your own good!" Stefan pleaded whist Elena just looked on as Uncle and Niece continued to argue about their difference in opinion over what was wrong and what was right for one Scarlett Salvatore.
'You know what Uncle Stefan? I don't trust you as far as I can thrown you so in terms of what is best for me I will do what I think is best as if you dare to interrupt that then I will tell Sheriff Forbes the real truth about the Salvatore family and the deep dark secret we've been keeping since 1864."
"I know you Scarlett and I know that you don't want to do any of this!" Elena said in an attempt to play mediator between the warring Uncle and Niece but it didn't seem like it was working as Scarlett was still as pissed as ever.
"Elena this doesn't concern you, this is between me and dear old Uncle Stefan… What's going on with this whole Logan Fell situation? And don't mess me around with any of this I want the truth now Uncle Stefan!" Scarlett demanded, she was tired of playing by her uncles rules and as of now they were going to have to play by her rules if they wanted to survive in this town.
"Logan tried to kidnap Caroline but Damon and I stopped him in time, I took her home and she's fine so there's no need for you to worry." Stefan advised her but after the little stunt that he pulled with her mother Scarlett felt that she could no longer trust her uncle anymore.
"Whatever!" Scarlett hissed, she go along with this for so long but she knew that she wasn't being told the exact truth and the next time her uncles stepped out of line then she would do something to end them permanently. Family or no family.
