Chapter 30

Kurt and Mercedes have resumed their seats on the beds. Ben paces in front of them.

"Witches don't have eternal life, right? So, you guys can die," states Ben stupidly.

"Yep. We can die," confirms Mercedes in a bored tone.

"Ah. That sucks," says Ben, feeling genuinely sad.

Suddenly, Blaine kicks the door in. Ben screams as the sunlight starts to burn his skin. Blaine rips the curtain open, allowing more sunlight to pour in. Ben hides in the dark between the two beds.

"Blaine!" yells Kurt.

Mercedes and Kurt get up and dash out the door.

"Get outside!" yells Blaine to Kurt and Mercedes. Blaine walks over to Ben, looking down at him. "When the sun goes down, leave town. If I ever see you again, I will kill you." Blaine leaves the motel.

Mercedes and Grams sit at a table, conversing in Grams home.

"How did you know where we were?" asks Mercedes.

"Many things can fuel a witch's power. Worry. Anger. After Blaine told me they had taken you, I had a lot of both. Simple locator spell was easy after that."

"I'm sorry. About all of this."

Grams smirks. "Not as sorry as they're gonna be."

Blaine and Kurt enter the room. "So, what do we do now?" asks Kurt.

"Well, for now, you need to stay here," says Blaine.

"A prisoner, in my own home? I don't think so," says Grams in response.

"I can't protect you if you leave the house," informs Blaine.

"We'll protect ourselves," says Grams.

"We need to let him have Kristian back. He's not going to stop until he gets him. If we help him, maybe that ends it," says Kurt.

"No! He doesn't deserve to get what he wants," says Mercedes.

"What other choice do we have?" asks Kurt. Kurt looks up at Blaine.

"Witches being pulled down by vampire problems. As much as we tried to do to stay out of it. I'll open the tomb. You get your brother's guy and destroy the rest with fire. Then this will be all over," says Grams.

"We still have to get Puck to agree," says Blaine.

"He already agreed once," says Kurt.

"Yeah, and then we double crossed him. So now he's angry," says Blaine.

"He's hurt. There's a difference. I think I know what I have to do," says Kurt.

Kurt and Blaine exchange looks.

Anna walks back up to the motel room. She sees that the door is wide open and Kurt and Mercedes have escaped. "You've got to be kidding me." Anna walks in and looks over at Ben, who is still crouched between the two beds, his hoodie over his head.

"It was Blaine. There was nothing I could –" Ben tries to explain.

Anna holds her finger up at him. "Shut up! Stop talking." She rubs her face with her hands and sits down in a chair. "Without the witch, we don't have Puck or the grimoire. Puck's not gonna stop. He'll find a way in. And we're gonna be there when he does."

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Puck puts on his jacket, preparing to leave. Kurt enters the room and removes his scarf. Puck looks up at him. "I'm gonna have to change the locks. You stage a jailbreak?" asks Puck jokingly. Puck picks up the grimoire.

"Blaine," answers Kurt.

"Ah, brother. Ever the white knight."

"I convinced Mercedes to help you."

"I doubt that."

Kurt walks around the edge of the study towards the stairs, leading to the sunken part of the room where Puck is. "I'm not gonna say that I'm sorry we got the grimoire without you last night, because I'm not really."

"Well, at least you're honest."

"I was protecting the people I love, Puck. But so were you, in your own, twisted way. And as hard as it is to figure, we're all on the same side, after the same thing."

Kurt descends the stairs.

"Not interested." Puck starts to leave.

"Yes, you are, because you were willing to work with us yesterday."

Puck turns around. "Fool me once, shame on you."

"Okay, when we were in Atlanta, why didn't you use your compulsion on me?"

Puck places the grimoire on a table and walks towards Kurt, crossing his arms. "Who's to say I didn't?"

"You didn't. I know you didn't. But you could have. You and I…we have something. An understanding. And I know that my betrayal hurt you, different from how it is with you and Blaine, but I'm promising you this now, I will help you get Kristian back."

Puck groans, unconvinced. "I wish I could believe you."

Kurt unclasps his necklace, takes it off, and holds it in his hand, showing it to Puck. "Ask me if I'm lying now." Kurt places the necklace down on a table and waits for Puck to respond.

"You know Anna won't stop, by the way, no matter what I do."

"Then we'll deal with it."

Puck picks up Kurt's necklace and clasps it back around his neck. "I didn't compel you in Atlanta because we were having fun. I wanted it to be real. I'm trusting you. Don't make me regret it." Puck walks away.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Kurt and Puck arrive at the party in the woods and see over a dozen students drinking and chatting.

"The Duke party. I forgot. I hope they stay clear of the church," says Kurt worriedly.

"Your hope, not mine," says Puck with a smirk.

Sam and Quinn walk up to them.

"Kurt, hey!" greets Sam.

"Kurt! Oh, my God, where have you been?" asks Quinn. Quinn intertwines her fingers with Sam's. Kurt acknowledges this action.

"Long story, no time to tell it," answers Puck.

"I wasn't talking to you," says Quinn snidely.

"Sure you were," replies Puck with a smirk.

"We haven't met. I'm Sam." Sam holds out his hand for Puck to shake.

"Sam, there's a reason we haven't met," says Puck. "Dude, you have the biggest mouth I've ever seen. How many balls can you fit in there?"

"I've never had balls in my mouth, have you?" asks Sam back.

Puck smiles in response. "You and I are going that way," he tells Kurt. Puck grabs Kurt's arms and starts dragging him away.

Kurt looks back at Sam and Quinn as he's being pushed along. "Ah, I'm sorry, guys."

Sam and Quinn watch them go.

Blaine climbs up from the tomb with a shovel in hand. "Cleared the debris away. Set the torches like you asked. We can get down now," Blaine informs Mercedes. Blaine places the shovel against a rock.

Cans of gasoline lie nearby and Mercedes looks at them. "What is that?" she asks.

"It's everything I need to destroy them."

Blaine hands Grams a flashlight. "Are you sure that Puck will come back with him?" asks Grams.

Puck whistles. They turn and look at him. "Brother. Witches," greets Puck. Puck strides past them with the grimoire, Kurt trudging along behind him. Puck descends the stairs into the tomb. Kurt walks over to Blaine.

"Everything okay?" asks Blaine.

"I just want to get this over with. Are we ready?" asks Kurt nervously.

"I guess so," replies Mercedes.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Back at the Duke party, Artie and another guy are engaging in a beer chugging contest. Artie wins and slams his cup down on the ground.

"Done!" yells Artie.

Finn arrives at the party and Artie spots him. "I'll be right back," he tells the group of guys. He rolls over to Finn. "Hey man, uh, you got any weed?" he asks.

"Wait, you're kidding me, right? You act like a total dick every time we cross paths, and - and now you wanna party with me?"

"Lighten up, Hudson. I'm just asking you a question."

"Look, I don't get you man."

"It's a party. You're a partier. There's no need to psychoanalyze it."

"I don't party anymore and even if I did, it wouldn't be with you."

Artie starts to roll away. "No problem. Carry on just standing there. By yourself. All alone. The enemy of fun. Do you even have any friends?" Artie turns around and rolls away.

Finn turns around and Anna has suddenly appeared behind him. Finn is startled, but chuckles. "Thank God."

"Weird hello but, okay. What's the matter?" asks Anna in response.

"Uh, nothing. Nothing, just…" Anna crosses her arms over her chest and looks at Finn, unconvinced. "It's nothing."

"Come on, let's walk," Anna tells him.

Finn and Anna walk off with their arms around each other.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Grams is lighting the torches at the tomb. Mercedes stands next to her and Blaine, Puck, and Kurt watch from the entrance.

"Air. Earth. Fire," starts Grams.

"Water," completes Mercedes. She holds up a water bottle and Grams takes it, sprinkling the water on the floor.

"That's it? Just water from the tap?" asks Kurt.

"As opposed to what?" sasses Grams.

"I just figured maybe it would have to be blessed or mystical or something," replies Kurt.

Grams smirks at Kurt. Puck pulls out a blood bag and unravels it.

"What's that?" asks Blaine.

"It's for Kristian. Gotta have something to get him going. Unless your boy's offering a vein to tap." He looks back at Kurt, who looks at him, unamused. Blaine sighs. "Admit it - you can't wait to get rid of me."

Blaine chuckles. "I can't wait to get rid of you," repeats Blaine.

"Hmm." Pucks looks at him annoyed.

Mercedes looks up at them from the ground. "We're ready."

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Finn is leaning against a tree. Anna is standing in front of him.

"This place is wild," says Anna.

"You kinda like dead people, huh?" asks Finn.

"I'm strange, remember? You okay?"

"Uh, yeah. Yeah. This place makes me think about someone."

"A dead someone?"

"No, no, just…someone I used to know. So, uh, hey," He chuckles. "We made it all of what, 37 minutes, in that party?"

Anna smiles and laughs. "Not your scene?"

Finn pushes himself into a standing position. "I'm not really sure what my scene is anymore. So, what do you say? You, uh, you wanna be part of my non-scene?"

"I would happily be a part of your non-scene, except, uh, I'm leaving."

"Wait, what?"

"Yeah. My mom and I are moving away."

"Oh. Uh- that's-that's a bummer."

"Yeah?"

"Well, yeah."

"So, guess this is goodbye."

"I guess it is."

Finn and Anna lean into each other and kiss. Anna pulls away, her face transforming. Finn looks at her, alarmed.

"Anna, your face!"

Anna turns around. "It's nothing."

"It didn't look like nothing."

Ben hits Finn from behind. Finn falls to the ground, unconscious.

Anns sighs. "You didn't have to hit him that hard."

"Yes, I did," says Ben.

"Grab him and let's go. I'm taking him to meet my mother."

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Sam is leaning against a tree with a beer in his hand.

Artie sneaks up and swipes the beer out of his hand. "Swoop!" Artie takes a drink.

"Hey!" yells Sam in response.

"Aah. Where's your date?" asks Artie.

"Who knows?"

"Aww, is the honeymoon over already?"

"Maybe."

"After all that grief you gave me about liking her. I figured it would have lasted longer than five minutes."

"Look, I just - I don't know if I can do the whole public couple thing. She - she seems like she might be a little clingy."

"Well, good. I need my boy single anyway." Artie pats Sam's arm. "Oh, incoming."

Quinn approaches them with a smile. "Hey! There you are."

"Here I am," says Sam.

"Yeah, well, I'm not drunk enough. So, I'm just gonna go get another beer." Artie rolls away.

"So…" starts Quinn.

"So," repeats Sam.

"I have another speech."

"Okay."

"The hand thing, with Kurt, it was lame. Well, I was lame. And, hey, your feelings for Kurt aside, Puck was there, and he was always such a jerk to me. And I wanted to show off that I was with a good guy. So, anyway, I was lame. So, forgiven?"

"Yeah, of course. Yeah," Sam says with a smile.

Quinn smiles, relieved.

Mercedes and Grams are reciting a spell at the tomb, their eyes shut and hands interlocked.

"What are they saying?" asks Puck.

"Sounds Latin," replies Blaine.

"I don't think it's Latin," interjects Kurt.

After a few more seconds of the witches reciting the spell, the torches flare up. Kurt grabs onto Blaine's arm.

"What's happening?" asks Kurt.

The door to the tomb creaks open. Grams and Mercedes stop chanting and look up.

"It worked!" says Mercedes excitedly.

"Of course it worked."

Puck says to Blaine, "We have some fires to build."

Blaine looks back at Kurt, gently touching his shoulder. "I'm gonna go get the gasoline, I'll be right back."

Kurt nods and Blaine ascends the stairs out of the tomb. Puck looks from Mercedes and Grams to Kurt.

"You ready?" asks Puck.

"What?" asks Kurt confused.

Puck says to Mercedes and Grams, "You think I'm gonna go in there by myself so you can seal me in?" Puck grabs Kurt.

"Don't take him in. I'll bring the walls down," says Grams.

"You'll bring the walls down if I don't. You think I trust you?" asks Puck snidely.

"As much as I trust you," sasses Grams.

"Enough. Both of you. Look, he needs leverage. He needs to know that you're not going to shut the door when he gets inside. I get it. I'll go," relents Kurt.

Puck grabs a torch from the circle. "May I?"

Kurt nods at Grams and Mercedes, reassuringly, and follows Puck into the tomb.

Blaine runs over to the gasoline and starts to gather the cans up. Suddenly, someone speaks to him.

"Dark down there?" asks Ben.

Blaine straightens up, looking at Ben. Finn, unconscious, lies at Ben's feet.

"Thought I told you to leave," says Blaine.

"I considered it. Then I thought, screw you," replies Ben.

"Hey, hero," says Anna. Blaine turns around and sees Anna. "I'm going down there to get my mother."

"I can't let you do that," says Blaine.

"Well, Ben's about to make a main course out of Kurt's brother. So, you can stop me or him. Your choice." Anna vamp-runs into the tomb.

Puck and Kurt are down in the tomb, searching for Kristian. They hear whispers throughout the tomb.

"What is that?!" asks Kurt, scared.

"They can sense you. Now, where is he?" Puck asks himself.

Puck walks away, leaving Kurt behind.

"Puck!"

Anna descends the stairs into the tomb. Mercedes looks over at her.

"Hey, you're not going in there!" yells Mercedes.

"You think you can stop me?" asks Anna.

"Mercedes…" relents Grams.

Mercedes steps aside. Anna grabs a flashlight from the ground and runs into the tomb. Mercedes turns and looks at Grams, angered. "Why did you let her go in?"

"Because she isn't coming out, baby. None of them are," says Grams calmly.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Above the tomb, Blaine and Ben are in a tense conversation.

"Do you really think that she cares about you? Hmm? You're disposable," says Blaine.

"I don't care. She already gave me what I want," says Ben.

"Are you going to say, 'eternal life'? You really that stupid?"

Ben moves closer towards Blaine. "You know, I've heard about you. You don't feed. You're not strong enough to beat me." Ben rushes at Stefan. Blaine thrusts his arm, easily knocking Ben to the ground. Blaine picks up the hose connected to the gasoline can. Ben gets up and looks at Blaine. "Is that all you got?"

"No. I got this," says Blaine. He ignites the torch and sets Ben on fire. Ben screams and flails around, before finally falling to the ground, dead.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Back in the tomb, Kurt is still searching for Puck. "Puck? Puck!" Kurt continues to hear the whispering around him. Startled, he falls but quickly gets back up. His flashlight beam lands on one of the mummified vampires. As she walks around the room, he sees more and more vampires. Panicked, Kurt falls next to one of the mummified vampires, his beam lands on the vampire and he gasps in shock. The vampire's eyes open and are bloodshot with hunger. Kurt screams loudly and gets up, looking around for an exit. His beam of light lands on Anna who is standing right behind him.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Blaine walks back down into the tomb and looks around. "Where's Kurt?"

"Puck took him inside," answers Mercedes.

"What?!" Blaine runs towards the entrance of the tomb. Grams grabs his arm.

"Blaine! If you go in there, you won't come out," says Grams.

"What did you do?" asks Blaine worriedly.

"Opening the door didn't remove the seal, it just opened the door," answers Grams cryptically.

"What's the seal?" asks Blaine.

"Some seals keep vampires from entering. This one keeps them from coming out" explains Grams.

"Kurt's human. He can leave. Anna and Kristian can't. Puck can't. You were never planning on breaking the spell, were you?" realizes Blaine.

"I told you. I will protect my own. Kurt can get out. That's all that matters," says Grams.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Anna steps towards Kurt, shining his flashlight on her. "You must have a taste for it. You scream and shriek and even bother to escape, but then you just come right back to it." Kurt walks backwards and bumps into Pearl. Anna sees her mother and kneels next to her, caressing her arm. "Mother! Mother," Anna says with relief. She turns to Kurt. "Your boyfriend did this, you know."

"His father did," clarifies Kurt.

Anna stands up. "And Jonathan Hummel. I made a choice a long time ago that it would be Hummel blood that brought her back to life. I had Finn all ready to go but…"

Kurt gasps and turns around, bolting from the room, but Anna vamp-runs in front of him, grabs Kurt by the wrist, and bites down. Kurt screams loudly.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

In the ante-chamber, Blaine hears Kurt's screams echo through the tomb. Blaine dashes into the tomb. Mercedes chases after him.

"Stefan!" yells Mercedes after him. Grams blocks Mercedes from entering the tomb. "You can't just leave him in there, Grams!"

"He made his choice!"

"No. Here." Mercedes picks up the grimoire and looks desperately at her Grams. "Just show me what to do. I'll do it."

"We are not strong enough. Even if we could bring the seal down, there's no guarantee that we could get it back up again."

"You said it yourself, many things can fuel a witch's power. Help me or I'll do it alone."

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Anna pushes Kurt down on the ground, across Pearl's lap, and holds Kurt's wrist up to her mouth. Kurt struggles, but Pearl, smelling the blood, begins to drink.

"No, please don't!" yells Kurt

"I'm gonna get you out, Mama," Anna promises to her mother.

Blaine runs in. "Let him go!"

Blaine grabs Anna and pushes her aside.

"No!" yells Anna.

Blaine grabs Kurt and pulls him up, pushing him towards the exit. "Go. Go. I'm right behind you."

Blaine blocks Anna from chasing down Kurt.

"Anna," says Pearl weakly. Anna rushes to her mother's side, caressing her face in her hands and crying happily. "Annabelle."

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Mercedes and Grams are looking through the grimoire when Kurt exits the tomb.

"Kurt, Blaine…" Mercedes started to explain.

"He's right behind me," says Kurt. Mercedes and Grams look at the entrance to the tomb. Kurt turns around and sees Blaine standing in the doorway. Kurt walks up to him, worried. "Blaine, what are you doing?"

"It's gonna be okay. We'll fix it," promises Mercedes.

"What is it?" asks Kurt.

"I can't," says Blaine simply.

"Can't? Can't what?" asks Kurt, confused.

"The spell's still up. We can't get them out yet," explains Mercedes.

"You went in there not knowing if you could come back out?" asks Kurt. Blaine looks down, not answering. "Oh, my God."

"I heard you scream," says Blaine.

"We can't leave him in there. We promised him. Both of us," says Kurt.

"I know," says Blaine.

"Even if we're able to break through the seal, we won't be able to hold it for long," explains Grams.

Blaine goes back into the tomb to find Puck.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Puck is still searching the tomb for Kristian. Frustrated, he kicks the dirt on the floor. "He's not here," he realizes

Blaine walks up to Puck. "Puck."

"He's not here," repeats Puck.

"What?" asks Blaine.

Puck pulls out the blood bag. "He's not here!" He throws the blood bag at the wall. The blood splatters across it. Puck looks at Blaine pissed.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Grams and Mercedes are reciting the spell to lift the seal as Kurt circles around them. The torches flare up and Kurt looks towards the tomb.

"I think it's working," says Kurt.

Anna exits the tomb with Pearl, who is still weak. "I just wanted my mother back. Finn's fine. He's outside. I won't touch him," promises Anna. Anna and Pearl leave. The torches begin to falter.

"Mercy, keep going!" yells Grams. "They better hurry," she tells Kurt.

"Blaine, they can't hold it much longer!" yells Kurt.

The torches extinguish themselves. Mercedes looks faint and grams doesn't look much better. Kurt runs back into the tomb.

"Puck, we need to get out of here," says Blaine.

"It doesn't make sense. They locked him inside," says Puck, trying to make sense of everything.

"If we don't leave now, we're not getting out."

"How could he not be in here?"

"It's not worth spending all of eternity down here. He's not worth it!"

"No!" Puck angrily pushes Blaine away.

Kurt rushes into the room. "Puck! Please."

Puck, Blaine, and Kurt leave the tomb.

Mercedes and Grams are still chanting the spell to keep the seal down. Mercedes stops for a moment, gasping for air and keeling over.

"Oh, my God. I can't!" yells Mercedes.

"Yes, you can," Grams encourages.

They continue chanting. Puck exits the tomb first, followed by Kurt, who turns around and embraces Blaine when he exits. The door to the tomb closes and the torches die out.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

At the party in the woods, Quinn is talking with a group of friends, she looks over at Sam, who is leaning against his truck and they smile at each other. Quinn walks over to him.

"Is this for real?" asks Sam.

"Is what for real?" asks Quinn.

"You bein' all cool and honest and open?"

Quinn walks a step closer to Sam. "Speech number three? I want this to work. And I'm scared that you're gonna change your mind and you're not gonna want it. I don't want to mess it up."

"I don't want to mess it up either."

They place their foreheads together.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Blaine and Kurt exit the tomb and run over to Finn, who is waking up.

"He's okay," says Blaine as he checks Finn. Kurt and Blaine kneel next to Finn, who groans. "He's all right."

Puck exits the tomb, looking completely miserable. Kurt gets up and walks towards him. He wraps his arms around Puck and places his head on Puck's shoulder. "I'm sorry," Kurt says sorrowfully.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Grams walks unsteadily to her room. Mercedes gently grabs her arms to guide her.

"Hey, let me help you," says Mercedes.

"Oh, I'm fine. You don't need to coddle me, baby," replies Grams.

"It was a big spell, Grams. I could tell it took a lot out of you."

"I'll be fine."

Grams continues to walk unsteadily towards her bed as Mercedes looks on with worry.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Kurt carries a glass of water and an Aspirin into Finn's room and hands it to him. "How's your head?"

"Uh- it's alright. I just…I wish I knew how I passed out. I didn't drink that much, I swear," promises Finn.

"And you don't remember anything?"

"The whole things pretty cloudy. I just…I know how this looks. I'm - I'm sorry."

"No, Finn, don't be sorry. You didn't do anything, okay?"

"Yeah, okay."

"I've got to head on over to Cedes' for a little bit, but is there anything that you need?

"No, I'm just…I'm gonna crash."

"Okay, well, Emma's here and I'll be back soon."

Kurt leaves. Finn gets up from his bed and goes to his computer. He googles the word "Vampire."

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Pearl and Anna go back to the motel room. Anna turns on the light and gets a shock when she sees Puck sitting in a chair in the corner of the room.

"You knew Kristian wasn't in there," says Puck.

"You wouldn't have helped me," says Anna. Puck vamp-runs at Pearl and grabs her by the throat. "No! No!"

"Why do you get a happy ending?" asks Puck menacingly.

Anna rushes towards him. "Puck, please! You wouldn't have helped me, you know you wouldn't have!"

Puck grabs a hold of Anna, restricting her movement. "Why do you get it and I don't?"

"The guard. The one at the church. The one who locked us in. Kristian promised to turn him. He was obsessed with Kristian. Kristian had him under his spell, like everybody else. He let him go," Pearl explains

Puck releases Anna and Pearl. Anna wraps her arms around Pearl and looks up at Puck.

"Last I saw him was Chicago, 1983. He knew where you were Puck. He didn't care," says Anna. Puck is utterly hurt by this new piece of information. "Sorry."

Anna embraces Pearl while Puck leaves the motel room.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Kurt is at Grams's house, talking on the phone with Blaine, who is at the Anderson house. "I just got to Cedes'."

"Everything alright?" asks Blaine.

"Yeah. How's Puck? Is he gonna be okay?"

"I don't know. Can I call you later?"

"Yeah, of course."

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Blaine walks into the parlor. Puck is sitting down, staring blankly at the fire. Blaine sits down next to him. They sit together in silence.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Mercedes enters Gram's room carrying a cup of tea for her. "Here you go, Grams." She places the tea on the nightstand and pulls the covers up over Grams. She looks down at her Grams and gets the feeling that something is wrong. "Grams?" She sits down on the bed and starts to shake Grams. "Grams! Grams, wake up! Grams! Grams!" Now sobbing, "Kurt!"

Kurt dashes into the room, looking bewildered.

"Help! Wake up! She's not breathing! She's just not breathing! Please, wake up!" yells Mercedes.

Kurt runs out of the room and grabs the phone, dialing 911.

Mercedes gets up as well. "I'm gonna fix it! It's okay, I can fix this!"

"Yes, I need an ambulance to Oak Street. It's an emergency, quick," Kurt says into the phone.

Mercedes grabs the grimoire and flips through the pages, trying to find a spell to bring Grams back.

Kurt walks back into the room and gently grabs Mercedes' shoulders. "Mercy…Mercy."

"No! No! I can fix it! Grams, I can fix this!"

"Mercy! Mercy! Mercy."

Mercedes continues to sob as Kurt wraps his arms around Mercedes, trying to comfort her.

NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB~NKB

Down in the tomb, the blood bag that Puck threw drips down from the wall. A vampire sits below the pool of blood on the wall and it drips down towards him. The vampire gets up, opens the door of the tomb, and can walk out. He looks up at the ceiling, finally free.
