"Damon is Damon."Emily said a she lifted her cup to her lips as she glanced at Bonnie, who pursed her lips as she looked back at Emily.

"Where is he?"Elena said, appearing out of nowhere with Liah, startling Emily and Bonnie.

"Where's who?"Bonnie asked, eyeing the Petrova Witch.

"Where's Stefan?"Liah growled out."Tell me."She hissed, watching the two with narrowed eyes.

"We don't know. We haven't seen him, not after he betrayed us."Emily said, grimacing."Why do you want to know?"She asked suspiciously.

"Because he stole from us."Liah growled out cryptically, crossing her arms.

"What are you talking about?"Bonnie asked as both Immortals glanced at each other.

"It doesn't matter."Elena said, turning on her heels."Oh look, Liah, there's Damon at his usual seat with Alaric."She said and stalked over to him with Liah right next to her.

"-That's his midterm paper."They heard Alaric say to Damon and caused Elena and Liah to pause."Copied it straight off the internet, didn't even try to hide it."

"Ooh."Damon said, widening his eyes."Someone' getting grounded."He smirked at Alaric.

"Did you say you're waiting for Jeremy...?"The bartender, who had over heard their conversation, trailed off questionably."As in Jeremy Gilbert?"

"Yeah."Alaric said.

"He was fired last week."She stated.

"Oops."Damon said softly.

"Damon."Elena said coldly.

"Gah!"Damon exclaimed, jumping in shock and surprise that Elena could sneak up on him and turned to him along with Alaric, who glanced over at Emily before looking back at Elena.

"Where's your Brother?"Elena gritted out.

"I have no clue."Damon said and eyed Elena, noticing the tension in her shoulders."What did he do?"He asked worriedly.

"He stole from us."Liah echoed her earlier statement."Come on, these bloody idiots don't know where he is and will likely waste our time."With that said, she stormed out of the Grill with Elena hot on her heels before either Vampire or Vampire Hunter slash History Teach could say anything."Where the bloody hell could that Rippah be?"Liah snarled, her British accent becoming thicker from her anger.

"Calm down. There's not a lot of places he could be."Elena said coolly as she followed Liah to the car before pausing when her phone went off. Pulling out her phone, she saw Klaus' name come up on the screen."No, Klaus."Elena answered her phone without any form of greeting and before Klaus could actually say anything."They don't know where Stefan is."Elena stated as she got in the passenger seat and shut her door.

"They're lying."Klaus growled out in a gruff voice.

"I wish, but Emily's a bad liar."Elena retorted.

"Plus, she looked really upset."Liah couldn't help but add.

"Did you meet with the Rippah's Brother?"Klaus asked instead as Liah pulled out of the parking lot and drove off.

"He was also at the Grill."Elena said, rolling her eyes."He knows nothing of where his Emotionless Brother is."

"Or where the Coffins are, because if he did, he'd let something slip."Liah stated and they both heard Klaus growl in annoyance and rage.

"He has to know something."Klaus bit out."I think I'll go to the Grill and have a little chat with them."Elena and Liah shared a look, knowing that Klaus was up to something.

"Fine, whatever."Liah said, annoyed with the fact that her Brother didn't believe her or Elena, before Klaus hanged up."Is there any place you know of where he might be?"She asked, glancing at Elena, who shook her head, before looking back at the road.

"I never really hung out with my Sister and her Boyfriend and their group, remember?"Elena asked sarcastically and glanced out the window.

"Right, of course."Liah said softly before an idea hit her."Do you think Stefan took my Coffin as well?"

"I don't think he would, why?"Elena asked, looking back at Liah questionably.

"Because if there is one thing I know about Nik, it's that when he Undaggers us, he leaves our Daggers in the Coffins until we do something to anger him."Liah explained and Elena raised an eyebrow at her.

"Why keep the Daggers in your Coffins? It doesn't make sense, I mean, what if one of your Siblings tried to throw said Daggers into the ocean or something?"Elena asked, confused and curious.

Liah chuckled."Well, none of my Siblings actually know that's where he keeps the Daggers."Liah stated."They normally think that he keeps the Daggers on his person at times, so how can they throw the Daggers into the ocean if they believe that said Daggers are on his person?"Liah asked rhetorically and Elena nodded thoughtfully.

"Fair enough."Elena mumbled."How do you know?"She questioned Liah.

"Before I left my Siblings, nearly a hundred years ago, when Klaus Daggered Kol, I thought he would go after me next, so I hid in my Coffin"Liah smirked."and I found my Dagger under my pillow while waiting for Klaus to leave the house and go on a wild goose chase around town."

"But you didn't take the Dagger with you to New York?"Elena stated questionably.

"Because then he'd really go after me."Liah stated as they pulled up to where a bunch of trucks were."We can leave whenever we want, as long as we came back to Nik, but if he found out that I took one of his Daggers,"The duo got out of the car and headed to the white truck, where Liah's and Rebekah's Coffins were inside the trailer."then there'd be a likely chance that I'd end up like my Big Brother, who has been rotting away in Coffin for nine hundred years."

"So why do you want your Dagger now?"Elena asked as Liah opened the trailer and walked towards her Coffin.

"Remember that Spell you used to try and find my Siblings and I through Elijah's Dagger?"Liah asked, glancing back at her as she opened her Coffin and Elena nodded."And remember when Gloria used a Spell on Rebekah to find her necklace so that we could contact Mommie Dearest?"

"Yes, I remember."Elena said before her eyes widened in realisation."Oh, you're going to use the Dagger to figure out where Stefan and our Siblings are. Smart."Elena said, pointing at Liah.

"Thanks."Liah said, smirking as she pulled out her Dagger from under her pillow."Let's head back home and do this."Liah paused for a second when she saw Rebekah's Coffin and groaned, causing Elena to look at her in confusion."We forgot about Rebekah."Liah said, looking back at Elena.

"Shit."Elena mumbled."What do we do?"She asked, unsure of how to go about this.

Liah looked thoughtful for a moment."Nik's more concerned about our Brothers, and I know you are too."Liah nibbled on her lower lip."I'm sure Rebekah will understand why it took so long to wake her up."Liah stated and walked over to her Little Sister's Coffin.

"What are you doing?"Elena asked, confused as Liah opened Rebekah's Coffin.

"Killing two Spells with two Daggers, of course."Liah said as she found Rebekah's Dagger and showed said Dagger to Elena."This way, one of us can locate my Brothers and the other can locate Rebekah."

"You think Emily and Damon moved Rebekah?"Elena said crossing her arms and Liah nodded as she jumped out of the trailer."And you're most likely right, with their record, they would move her."


As Liah, who was placing candles on the table for the two Spells that they were going to do, and Elena, who was sitting at the table, reading Liah's Grimoire that contained the Spell Gloria did, Elena's phone went off and she glanced at it before groaning, causing Liah to look at her questionably.

"Who is it?"

"Emily."Both girls grimaced, not wanting to deal with the Mortal Doppelganger, but knowing Emily, who barely ever calls Elena unless it's urgent, she'll continue calling until Elena answered."What do you want now, Emily?"Elena asked as soon as she answered the phone while Liah turned back to setting everything up.

"Klaus tried to kill Jeremy!"Elena's jaw dropped and Liah looked back at Elena sharply.

"He did what?"Elena choked out."How? Why!?"Elena exclaimed in confusion."I thought Jeremy was wearing one of the Gilbert Rings?"Elena spluttered, concern rising up into her chest for her Little Brother.

"Klaus had Tyler get Jeremy off Vervain so that he could compel Jeremy take off his Ring and to stand in front of a car speeding towards him, driven by one of Klaus' other Hybrids."Emily explained."If it wasn't for Ric pushing Jeremy out of the way, he could have been seriously hurt or dead, Elena!"

"Why would Klaus do that? What did you do to piss him off!?"Elena exclaimed questionably.

"I didn't do anything to piss Klaus off!"Emily said, sounding offended."He did it to send us a message to find Stefan."

"Did you find Stefan?"Elena asked as Liah looked hopeful.

"Of course, that's all you care about."Emily suddenly snapped and Elena tensed while Liah's eyes narrowed."All you care about is what Stefan stole from you, Klaus, and Liah, which is the Coffins. Yeah, I know. Damon told me."Liah and Elena shared a dark look."And the reason you care about these Coffins is because one of them contains Elijah."Elena silently gritted her teeth."God, Elena, can you focus and care about the fact that our Brother could have almost died today because of Klaus!"Elena's eyes started to flicker between pure amber and yellowish gold."What is wrong with you!?"Emily exclaimed before Elena could say anything."First you run off to find Elijah, then you end up telling Klaus that I'm alive and now you don't care about Jeremy's life!"Emily listed furiously."All you seem to care about is the Originals, as if they're your Family!"Elena stayed silent at that one, because it was true, she did see the Originals as her Family, more then she saw Emily as her own twin Sister."If I didn't know any better, I'd say you've been compelled by the Originals! But that's impossible because you're a Witch."She spat the word Witch as if Elena wasn't deserving of her Magic."And with the way you've been acting lately, I'd say you've become a Dark Witch."This time, Liah's jaw dropped and she stared, eyes wide.

"Excuse me!?"Elena exclaimed, enraged."How dare you accuse me, Emily Miranda Gilbert, of not caring about Jeremy's life!"Elena bellowed over the phone."I have always cared more about yours and Jeremy's lives then my own!"Elena knew that Emily was about to say something so she quickly continued."Don't you dare say I never cared, because I still do care about Jeremy's life."Elena hissed out as she stood up from her seat."I tried steering you away from Stefan and Damon when they came to town, I cried when I believed Jeremy was actually dead, by the same person you constantly forgive!"Elena exclaimed as she ran a hand through her hair."And for the record, you're not as innocent as you like to make yourself out to be, Emily."Elena retorted and heard Emily gasp in outrage but ignored it and continued speaking."You also left Jeremy alone most of the time during Summer too, to look for Stefan! Idiot move, by the way!"Elena spat."And so, why shouldn't I have outed you to Klaus when you were basically going to expose yourself to him sooner or later?"Elena asked rhetorically."Oh and by the way, the only way I could be a Dark Witch is if I did Dark and Black Magic, which I have never touched. So don't talk about things you have no understanding of!"Elena snarled and ended the call before Emily retort and looked up at Liah, who was staring at her with concerned hazel green eyes."I'm ok."She said gently to the unspoken question that she could see in Liah's eyes.

"After we do these Spells, I'll call Nik and rip him a new one for what he just made you go through."Liah said, smirking as she sat down opposite of Elena."I'll try to find my Brothers and you try to find Rebekah, ok?"

"Let's do this."Elena said softly with a nod before picked up one of the Daggers, which was laid out on the Grimoire, and she closed her eyes."Anta Cotis Syrum, Anta Cotis Syrum."Elena chanted, keeping her concentration on finding Rebekah."Anta Cotis Syrum, Anta Cotis Syrum."Elena was relieved to find that Rebekah was still in the basement of the Salvatore Boarding House.

Liah picked up the other Dagger and closed her eyes."Phasmatos Tribum,"Liah chanted, concentrating on finding her Brothers."Nas Ex Veras,"Only the Dagger, which Liah was holding, started to glow softly."Sequitas Sanguinem."

Before Liah could continue her Spell, she winced in pain at feeling her head explode with immense pain. Her eyes snapped open and she dropped the Dagger as she heard angry, yet sympathetic whispers in her mind. Elena's eyes snapped open and she went to tell Liah that Rebekah was still at the Salvatore's when she saw the Witchpire in pain and she dropped the Dagger back onto the Grimoire. Getting up, Elena ran over to Liah's side and put her hand on Liah's shoulder just as the whispers disappeared, or rather, they erased themselves from Liah's mind so that Liah wouldn't know the exact location of where her Brothers were just by knowing who had been in her head.

"Liah?"Elena asked questionably as Liah looked up her.

"I couldn't find them. Someone's blocking me."Liah said, sounding confused.

Elena pursed her lips."Bonnie?"

Liah shook her head."No, Bonnie's strong, I'll admit, but she's not strong enough to do powerful Cloaking Spells just yet."Liah stated and Elena nodded."Were you able to find Rebekah?"

"Yes, she's still at the Boarding House."Liah sighed in relief."Should we go get her?"

"Not just yet, I wanna try again on finding my Brothers."Liah said and Elena nodded.

"Here,"Elena held out her hand."take some of my Magic, get an extra kick."

Liah smiled gratefully and put her hands over Elena's and zapped some of Elena's powerful Petrova Magic before letting go and picked up the Dagger again to do the Spell while Elena watched.


Hours later, after continuously trying and failing to find her Brothers, along with having a fit, Liah got a text from Klaus, giving her some directions to a location and telling her to go there while Elena got a text from Alaric of all people, telling her to come to the Gilbert Household.

"I'll go see what Nik wants."Liah mumbled, looking exhausted.

"And I'll go find out what I'm going to be yelled at for this time."Elena grumbled, not really wanting to deal with her Sister or Step-Father.


"What's going on?"Elena asked suspiciously the moment she stepped through the door and found Alaric, Emily, and Damon waiting at the bottom of the stairs.

"We're sending Jeremy away and we thought you should know and might want to say goodbye."Alaric said and Elena's eyes widened.

"Even though you don't deserve to."Emily bit out, glaring at Elena, who glared back at her.

"You're not serious?"Elena looked between the trio, only to see the serious looks on their faces."You really think he's just going to do that, with everything going on?"Elena asked, crossing her arms.

"Maybe not willingly, but compulsion has it's uses."Damon stated and Elena's eyes darkened.

"Elena, if you care about Jeremy as much as you say you do, you know this is what's best for him."Emily spoke up and Elena gritted her teeth.

"Fine, but if all this blows up in your faces, just remember that I'm not to blame for it."Elena snapped before she left the house.
