Brooklyn, Rose and Diana were by the festivities in Mystic Falls as they listened what the mayor had to say.

"As a long-time member of the historical society, I am especially proud to be kicking off this day of festivities. Thank you, volunteers. Tonight, we turn off our town's lights and flare up our lanterns in honor of the night of illumination started by our founders. Here's founding family member, Tobias fell with a history lesson." The mayor said to them all of the people who were standing and listening.

"What are we doing here?" Jeremy asked to Alaric as Brooklyn listened to them as she uses her werewolf hearing.

"Tobias fell is the head of the history department. I didn't have a choice." Alaric replied to him.

"All right, that explains what you're doing here."

"Well, I'm the one who can fail you if you don't help me out."

Just then Elena came to the boys. "Hey, sorry I'm late. What did I miss?" She asked to them.

"You didn't miss anything." Jeremy replied to his sister.

"The first illumination was held in celebration with the new found prosperity that Mystic Falls enjoyed after the war." Tobias Fell said to all of the people who were standing and listening.

Jeremy laughed a little. Elena heard that and asked to him. "What's so funny?" Jeremy didn't answer her.

"To indicate that it was safe for their neighbors to come outside again." Tobias Fell said to them all who were standing and listening.

Then Brooklyn wanted to walk around for a bit, but Diana didn't want that so she let Rose with Diana and to walk by herself. Then she found Caroline and Bonnie and walked to them. They saw her and stopped with talking, they glared at her as they wanted her to go away.

"Why are you here?" Caroline asked to Brooklyn.

"I just went for a walk." Brooklyn replied to her.

Just then Damon comes to them in his car. "Greetings, blondie. Witchy. Wolfy." He greeted them as he gave Brooklyn a glare. Then he looked at Bonnie. "I think you got your voodoo wires all crossed when you got rid of Vicki Donovan." Damon said to her.

"What do you mean, why?" Bonnie asked to him.

"Because I'm pretty sure I just got spit-roasted by Mason Lockwood's ghost." Damon replied to her.

"What?" Bonnie asked shocked.

"And why would you think that?" Caroline asked confused.

"Maybe because he chained me to a chair and shoved a hot poker in my chest. Let's just say I'm having deja vu." Damon replied to them.

Caroline turned to Bonnie. "I thought you said that ghosts couldn't physically interact with people." She said to her confused.

"They can't." Bonnie said to her.

"Yeah, well, I don't have time for a vengeful Lockwood." Damon said to them as they turned to look at him. "When I kill someone, they're supposed to stay dead. Whatever you screwed up, fix it." Then Damon drove away.

Then Caroline and Bonnie turned to look at Brooklyn. "Why are you still here?" Caroline asked to her.

"Maybe I want to help you guys." Brooklyn replied to her.

"Well, we don't need your help." Caroline said boldly to Brooklyn.

"Okay, then." Brooklyn said to her and walked away from them.


As Brooklyn had walked away from Caroline and Bonnie, they go to Matt to talk to him.

"I haven't seen Vicki, I swear. I sent her back like you told me to." Matt said to the girls.

"Are you sure? Because she has just as much reason to haunt Damon as Mason Lockwood does." Bonnie explained as she was a little suspicions about it.

"She's gone, Bonnie. If she was here, I'd know it." Matt said to Bonnie.

"Why do you think it's Vicki and not Mason?" Caroline asked to Bonnie as she looked at her.

"Because if any ghost other than Vicki Donovan has a physical foothold on our side, then that means Damon's right and something has gone really, really wrong." Bonnie explained as she looked worried about it.

"I've had enough of this ghost stuff to last forever. So you guys can leave me out of this one." Matt said to the girls as he walked away from them.

"I feel so sad for him. It took a lot for him to send his sister away." Caroline said to Bonnie as she felt bad for Matt.

"Yeah."

"So much strength as a man."

"I've got a ghost problem to deal with, Caroline. Save the Jeremy lecture for later." Bonnie went to pick up her bag, but her bag is open and everything fell on the ground. She went to pick it up as then her grimoire opened out of the blue.

"Ok, did your grimoire just I think so." Caroline said shocked as Bonnie picked her grimoire up. "Ok, please tell me that's a recipe for witch cookies." She said as she looked at the book and then at Bonnie.

"It's a manifestation spell. It's used to reveal veiled matter." Bonnie explained it to Caroline.

Caroline looked confused at Bonnie. "What's veiled matter?" She asked to her.

"Ghosts." Bonnie replied to Caroline as she looked up from her grimoire.


Later, Brooklyn had walked back to her daughter and Diana, who were waiting for her.

"There you are." Diana said to Brooklyn.

"Here I am." Brooklyn said to her.

"What were you doing?" Diana asked to Brooklyn.

"Listening to the people." Brooklyn said mysteriously. Diana gave her a knowing look as Brooklyn sighed. "I just wanted to know what's going on here."

"Okay." Diana said while she sighed.

Then they went to look at Mr. Fell and then later the Mayor again.


Later that evening, Brooklyn heard her little brother shouting for someone.

"Anna! Anna." Jeremy bumped into someone. "Sorry." He said to the man and went go further to find a girl. "Anna!" Then he bumped into another man. "Hey, man sorry about that." He said to him.

"No problem, buddy." The man said to Jeremy.

Jeremy went to further for the girl as Brooklyn went to listen to the Mayor as she questioned Alaric.

"Have you seen Tobias Fell? He's supposed to do the lighting ceremony." The Mayor Lockwood said to Alaric.

"No." He replied to her.

Brooklyn was still listening to the people as she heard man and woman talking.

"Well, well." He said to her.

"Frederick?" She asked to him as she looked shocked.

"If it isn't pearl's daughter. Little Annabelle." Frederick said to Anna as he had a smirk on his face.

Then Mayor went up the podium again and said to the people from Mystic Falls. "Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Mr. Fell seems to have been detained, so the history department's very own Mr. Saltzman has agreed to fill in."

Then Brooklyn heard her brother again. "Anna!" He shouted to Anna as he walked to her.

"Still hanging around the Gilbert kid, huh? I guess you forgot the fact that his family killed you and your mother." Frederick said to Anna as she looked afraid.

Jeremy arrived by Anna and Frederick. "There you are. Is everything all right?" He asked to her as he saw how afraid she was.

"Ask your ancestors." Frederick replied before Anna could say anything.

Then Anne asked to Frederick. "What are you doing here, Frederick?"

"Well, it's a founder's celebration." Frederick replied to Anna. "And we… Have got some unfinished business with the founding families."

Then the heard Alaric saying to the people from Mystic Falls. "On behalf of Mystic Falls high school historical society, let's light 'em up."

Then someone screamed and they all went to look at a tree and saw Tobias Fell dead against the tree as Anna looked at Frederick. Then a few minutes later the police came and made sure he was gone from the people from Mystic Falls.

Then Elena walked to Jeremy asked. "Jeremy? What happened?" Jeremy explained what was going on. Then Elena asked to her brother. "Where is Anna now?"

"I don't know, ok? I don't even know for sure if she took the necklace." Jeremy said to Elena.

"She was the only person who heard us talking about it. Of course she took it. Ok? We have to get it back. We have to destroy it and then close the door." Elena explained it to Jeremy.

"I know, but…" He trailed off.

"But what? What, Jer?" Elena demanded.

He sighed as then he looked at sister. "I can touch her, Elena. I can kiss her again. And I know it's wrong, and I know that I shouldn't feel this way, but I do. I love her. I've always loved her." Jeremy explained it to Elena.

"But it's not real. She's dead. Gone. Everything that you're hold on to is in the past, Jer. Are you going to love a ghost for the rest of your life?" Elena asked to Jeremy as he didn't answer her and then Anna appeared to them and Elena saw her as Jeremy noticed that and turned around to look at Anna. "He's at the beginning of his life, Anna. You're just holding him back. You know that." Elena said to her as she showed her the necklace as Elena turned to her brother and to him. "Call Bonnie. Tell her that you have the necklace. Get her to send the ghosts away." Then Elena walked away from her brother.


A few minutes later, Brooklyn, Dian and Rose walked to Brooklyn's car. When they arrived, they saw someone standing there.

"Hello, who are you?" Diana asked kindly as Brooklyn didn't trust the woman and shielded her daughter from the woman.

"My name is Esther Mikaelson." Esther said to her as she had a threating look in her eyes.

"Why are you here?" Brooklyn asked boldly to her.

Esther looked at Brooklyn. "Soon I will be gone again, but I have you a warning."

"And what's that?" Brooklyn interrupted her.

"Stay away from Niklaus Mikealson, he will be your death." Esther warned her as then she disappeared from their eyes.

"Okay, that's was weird." Diana comment to Brooklyn.

"Yeah." Brooklyn said to her.

Then they all got into the car and drove to Diana's home and went all to bed, so tired were they.
