Liliah slapped Damon across the face. Damon held his face looking at Liliah with a shocked look making her laugh a little bit. She grabbed his hand moving it so she could look at his face but there was no mark.
"You're a vampire, aren't you?" Liliah asked him.
"Why aren't you freaking out?" Damon questioned her and she just shrugged her shoulders.
Liliah told him that, "Mystic Falls is a boring town, it's kind of needs some shaking up." She also said, "Just don't kill anyone and we'll be good." As they were walking towards Liliah's house, she was asking Damon all these questions about vampires. He answer all of her questions for some reason he couldn't lie to her. She won't make him answer any question she knew he wouldn't want to answer. Damon walked her all the way home and when she got to her front step, she knew that Damon was gone. When she got in her house, Tyler was waiting for her and she walked past him going up the stairs.
"Where were you?" Tyler asked her.
"The library. Didn't Elena or Bonnie tell you?" Liliah asked him.
"No, I thought something had happened to you too." Tyler said, Liliah walked down the stairs towards him. She gave him a hug knowing he was sad for some reason but she rather not poke the bear. Tyler started to cry Liliah just held him letting him let it out.
"I'm okay, Tyler." Liliah kept repeating that to him. "I'm always going to be here for you. I love you Tyler."
The next day Tyler just brushed everything off like nothing had happened last night and Liliah chose to ignore him. Liliah going to school with Jeremy today because Tyler left early to go meet up with Matt.
"So how was the party?" Liliah asked him.
"Besides Elena bugging me, your brother being a dick and Vick getting attacked in the woods it was pretty good." Jeremy said making Liliah stop in her tracks.
"Vicki got attacked in the woods?" Liliah ran up to him.
"You didn't hear? Didn't Elena text you?" Jeremy asked.
"If I'm shocked at what you just said, doesn't it mean that I don't know?" Liliah told him.
"Me and Elena found Vicki on the ground bleeding. Some animal attacked her." Jeremy said.
"I'm sorry. I knew how much you liked her?" Liliah told him linking her arm with him and she squeezed it a little bit. "Come on don't frown. You look better when you smile." Jeremy rolled his eyes at her but couldn't help but smile. "Yay, you smiled." They were right in front of the school and she turned him towards her. "Look my brother's a dick but, he really cares about Vicki, so take it easy on him okay."
"I'll try." Jeremy said.
"That's all I wanted to hear." Liliah said giving him a hug and she ran inside the school building. She seen Elena and Stefan in the hallway and he gave Elena something then he left making Liliah run towards her. "You got a gift from your lover."
"He's not my lover." Elena said.
"Yet." Liliah smiled at her and they walked into the classroom.
"Did you find the symbol you were looking for?" Bonnie asked Liliah as she sat in her chair.
"No, but I'm going to keep looking." Liliah stated. Stefan walked in the room and Liliah looked up at him and they locked eyes. Liliah looked away from him fast then her phone rang and she picked it up. "I'm in school, what do you want, Damon?"
"I can't talk to my friend?" Damon told her.
"Yes, but that would have to mean we're friends." Liliah smiled.
"Aw, That hurt Lili's."
Liliah's eyes turned gold and she closed her eyes holding the side of her head. She seen Damon in some kind of solider uniform and she heard someone's voice calling out to her. "Liliah?"
"Sorry, I kinda zoned out. I have to go before the teacher comes in and takes my phone and if he does you owe me a new one. Bye Damon." Liliah said and hung up the phone.
" ." Liliah looked up seeing Mr. Tanner and she just smiled at him.
"I'm sorry." Liliah said putting her phone away.
Liliah was looking for her brother. But someone grabbed her arm pulling her into an empty classroom and she looked up meeting blue eyes. "Damon, what the hell?"
"You hung up on me." Damon said and she rolled her eyes.
"Let me get this right, you came all the way here because I hung up on you." Liliah said and she pushed him away from her. "I'm at school and I can get in some serious trouble being here by myself. You should try calling or even texting it helps." Liliah opened the door only to see Stefan in the doorway.
"Brother." Damon said and Liliah pulled Stefan inside closing the door.
"Liliah, what are you doing with him?" Stefan asked her and she didn't say anything.
"I can't come here and say hello to a friend. Don't try and compel her, it doesn't work on her." Damon said.
"I'm leaving." Liliah said opening the door walking out the classroom. But Stefan grabbed her wrist pulling her back towards him. "Let me go." She growled out and both boys seen her eyes turn gold making Stefan let go of her wrist. Liliah looked at his hand seeing the burn, Liliah ran off going to find her brother.
"It's her." Stefan said.
"Yeah. So, what are you going to do brother?" Damon asked.
"I don't know but we have to make sure no one else knows." Stefan said and his hand wasn't healing as fast as usual.
Liliah seen Jeremy yelling at Tyler and she ran towards him pushing him away from her brother. "You promise me."
"I said I'd try." Jeremy said and she grabbed his arm walking away from her brother. "Why do you still protect him?"
"Because he's my brother he's family and that's what you do for family." Liliah said and they went towards her locker.
"He's not even your real brother, his family took you in from the streets. You're just a charity case for them!" Jeremy yelled at her. Everyone in the hallway looked at them and Liliah had her head down and walked away from him. Liliah stopped in her tracks turning towards Jeremy, she looked up her eyes were teary.
"Don't ever talk to me again." Liliah walked down the hall. She took her phone out dialing someone's number. "Hey I need you."
"So let me get this straight, your best friend told the entire school your secret." Damon said and Liliah nodded. He was poured himself a drink offering Liliah a cup and she just gave him a look making him drink both cups.
"This wasn't the only reason I called you." Liliah told him.
"I knew this was going to happen, Liliah." Damon began but Liliah cut him off.
"Slow down, Dracula. I'm not into you either that's not why I called." Liliah played with her hands, Damon grabbed both of them and she took a deep breath. "I had this dream and you were in it and before you say anything no it wasn't what you think, you were in this civil war uniform. I need to ask you something important." She looked at him grabbing his hands. "Did you know me before or this might sound stupid but in a past life?"
"No, I'm sorry." Damon said and she nodded getting up walking towards the door opening it seeing Elena.
"Hey." Liliah said.
"Liliah, what are you doing here?" Elena asked her.
"Talking to Stefan's brother." Liliah said.
"He told me he didn't have any siblings." Elena said.
"No, he said he doesn't have any he talks to." Liliah smiled and walked out of the house.
Liliah was in her room and she was looking through her closet. She touched a wall in her closet and it was hollow. She moved the wall seeing a chest and she took it out, she placed it on the floor trying to open it but it was stuck.
"I see you found the chest." Liliah looked up seeing her brother. She just smiled and looked back down at the chest. Tyler walked in her room sitting next to her and he tried to help her open it but it was locked. "I heard you left school early."
"Yeah, it was something with Gilbert." Liliah said looking around her room for a key or something to pick the lock.
"What did he do?!"Tyler asked her and she knew his fist were clenched.
"It was nothing. Tyler." Liliah said trying to assure him it wasn't a big deal. Tyler turned his sister around seeing her eyes teary, and he held her in his arms and she cried. "Tyler, he told the whole school that I wasn't your sister and I was a charity case."
"He's dead." Tyler said letting her go walking out the room but Liliah pulled him back in.
"He's just some stupid boy. Promise me you won't hurt him." Liliah said.
"I promise." Liliah hugged her brother and smiled. "But if he hurts you again, you tell me and I will kill him."
"Okay." Liliah said.
"Come on we have to go see the comet." Tyler said but Liliah shook her head and he knew she wasn't going to go. "Elena, Bonnie and Caroline will kill me if you don't go."
"Fine, I'll go but you owe me." Liliah said and they both walked out of her room.
"Mom, Dad. Me and Liliah are leaving." Tyler said and they both walked out.
Liliah and Tyler were in the Mystic Grill playing pool. Liliah was up and she was aiming her pole stick towards a red ball. Liliah hit the ball landing it in the corner right pocket, she got a yellow ball in as well.
"You lose your memory and you still can kick my ass in pool." Tyler said.
"You can't take away skill." Liliah smiled at him.
"You had skills, I thought it was just dumb luck." Tyler teased her and she playfully punched his shoulder. Liliah looked at her brother and he seemed distracted. She followed his eyes seeing Vicki with Jeremy.
"Go talk to her, I'll go get us drinks." Liliah said walking away from him.
She walked up towards the bar asking for two bottles of water and the bartender nodded going back to get her the bottle waters. She sat down waiting for her orders, someone walked towards her. She placed her head down on the bar, she looked towards the right seeing a girl staring at her. Liliah got up walking towards Tyler and the girl got up walking towards Liliah.
"Tyler can we go. I really wanna see that comet." Liliah said grabbing his arm.
"Yeah." Tyler said.
Jeremy stared at Liliah, she ignored his stare and walked away from him. Jeremy sighed, Liliah was the person in this town that doesn't pity him or give him crap. She was always up front with him and he hated what he told her in school. She was his best friend and he had hurt her.
Both Lockwood's walked outside the Mystic Grill seeing the town square full of people holding candles. Caroline came up to both the siblings telling Tyler she had to take Liliah away for a little while. Liliah let go of her brother walking away with Caroline, and she seen Bonnie and Elena. Liliah smiled at her friends but something felt off and she turned her head to the side seeing the same girl. The girl's eyes dark until they were almost black with vein on the bottom like vampires but Liliah knew she wasn't a vampire. She blend in too well, yes vampires can blend in but they always make mistakes at time.
"Lunetta, hey." Caroline said and the girl walked towards the group.
"Hey, Care." Lunetta said and smiled at the others.
"I thought you were headed towards California?" Bonnie questioned her.
"Tyler texted me telling me that his baby sister woke up and I came back to meet her and she looks adorable." Lunetta said and Liliah hid behind Matt.
"She's shy." Matt said and Liliah had disappeared from the group.
"Where did she go?" Elena asked.
"She was just right here." Bonnie said.
"Probably looking for Tyler." Caroline said.
"This is probably my fault, I didn't mean to frighten her." Lunetta said and walked away.
Liliah was running towards her house not looking back, the only thing on her mind was getting home and locking everything. Liliah bumped into someone and she looked up seeing Lunetta. She gave Liliah a sinister smile, "So innocent, so weak, so pathetic."
Liliah moved back and began to run the other way but Lunetta appeared in front of her again. Lunetta began to laugh at her, "You don't remember me do you?"
"Should I?" Liliah asked.
"I can't believe you forgot about your baby sister." Lunetta said and Liliah's eyes widen.
"Tyler is my only sibling." Liliah said.
"You had a family before the Lockwood's." Lunetta rolled her eyes. "Let me just show you." She placed both of her hands on Liliah's head closing her eyes chanting something. Lunetta's hands began to burn and she pulled back screaming in pain. "I guess the this is the old man's doing, you have to remember on your own time and when you do I'll be back." Lunetta walked away from her with her heels clicking on the pavement. Liliah looked up seeing the comet passing by and her eyes turned blue for a second.
She kept walking away until she heard a girl scream and she turned her head seeing Vicki being held by someone. She ran towards the building and she closed her eyes then all of a sudden she was on top of the building. She seen Damon holding Vicki by her arm. "Damon don't hurt her." Liliah walked towards him.
"Liliah, I lied to saying I wouldn't hurt anyone because I'm a bad person." Damon said.
"No, you aren't. Because if you were you would have killed me when you wanted to drink my blood, if blood is all you want then here." Liliah took out her blade and cut her hand. Damon smelled her blood from where he was and she seen his eyes darken with veins under them.
"Liliah, I'm not going to drink your blood." Damon told her.
"Why not you're a vampire right?" Liliah walked towards him. "You said you're a bad guy then do it."
"Not bad. Have you've been eating bunnies?" Damon said and Liliah turned around seeing Stefan.
"Let her go." Stefan told his brother and walked towards him.
"Really? Okay." Damon said and let her go for a little bit but Stefan, Vicki and Liliah all said no. Damon pushed her towards Stefan letting her go. "Relax." Vicki began to ask what was happening and Liliah leaned down towards her trying to comfort her. "I don't need her to be dead, but you might." Damon smiled at Stefan and looked down at Vicki as she was crying. "What attacked you the other night?"
"I don't know. An animal." Vicki told him.
"Are you sure about that?" Damon asked her leaning towards her.
"Damon, don't." Liliah told him.
"Why not, Lili's? She just has to think. Think about it. Think really hard." Damon told Vicki and Liliah.
"Damon, this isn't funny. She's scared!" Liliah yelled at him.
"What attacked you?" Damon questioned her.
"Vampire." Vicki said.
"Who did this to you?" Damon asked.
"You did!" Vicki yelled at him.
"Wrong." Damon said.
"Don't." Stefan said.
"Stefan." Damon said.
"Don't." Stefan said again.
Damon grabbed Vicki standing her up and Liliah stood up as well. "Stefan, wouldn't do this right?"
"I don't drink human blood." Stefan told her and Liliah nodded.
"Stefan Salvatore did this to you." Damon said holding Vicki's face in his hands.
"Stefan Salvatore did this to me." Vicki repeated.
"He's a vampire. A vicious, murderous." Damon said.
"Please, Damon. Please don't do this." Stefan begged him.
"You couldn't fix it before. I don't know what you're gonna do now." Damon said and ripped the bandage from Vicki's neck then tossed her towards Stefan and he caught her. "Your choice of lifestyle has made you weak. Couple of vampire parlor tricks is nothing compared to the power that you could have. Human blood could gives you that."
"No." Stefan said and he dropped Vicki on the top of the roof ground. He began to grunt in pain and Liliah went towards Stefan and grabbed his face.
"Look at me." Liliah said.
Damon walked towards them getting closer. "You have two choices. You can feed on her and make her forget or you can let her run screaming 'Vampire' through the town square." Damon said.
"That's what this this is about? You wanna expose me?" Stefan asked him. Liliah moved her hands from his face.
"No, I want you to remember who you are." Damon told him.
"Why? So, What? So, I'll feed? So, I'll kill? So, I'll remember what it's like to be brothers again? You know what? Let her go. Let her tell everyone that vampires have returned to Mystic Falls. Let them chain me up. And let them drive a stake through my heart. Because at least I'll be free of you." Stefan told Damon.
Damon began to chuckle at his younger brother and went towards Vicki, "Wow. Come here, sweetheart." Vicki began to protest against Damon so he wouldn't do anything to her. Damon whispered something into Vicki's ear. She stopped crying and looked up at three asking them what happened and where she was. Vicki left the three on the roof and Liliah was about to walk away when Damon grabbed her.
"Don't tell anyone what you saw tonight." Damon told her.
"Don't worry, no one would believe anyways. I thought you were nice but you're evil." Liliah said yanking her arm away from him.
"Lili's." Damon said.
"Don't call me that." Liliah said and got down from the roof. She was walking home and she heard someone behind her and she swung her fist, only to have the person catch it. Her brown eyes met a set of green eyes. "Sorry, Stefan."
"It's okay and thanks for trying to help. Damon can be a handful at times." Stefan said.
"Older brothers tend to do that. Not trying kill an innocent girl or have his sibling feed on her but you know what I mean right." She asked him and he nodded smiling a little bit.
"You want me to walk you home?" Stefan asked her.
"No, I'm good but you can go find Elena and ask her out. I see the way you look at her. You must really like her." Liliah said and gave him a kiss on the cheek. But for a moment as she moved back they were lost in each other's gazes. "Goodnight Stefan." Liliah walked away from him.
Liliah got in her room taking her heels off of her feet and jumped on her bed going to sleep until she heard a whoosh in her room and she seen flowers on her dresser. She got up walking towards them and pick up a card.
'I'm sorry about tonight, I hope you can forgive me and give me a second chance which you give rarely.
From,
Damon Salvatore'
Liliah rolled her eyes at the note and turned her head seeing Damon on her balcony. She walked towards him and punch him hard in the chest. "Don't ever put me in that position again. I want to be friends really but if I ever see you hurt someone, I'll hurt you."
"I won't hurt anyone around you." Damon said and Liliah gave him a look like you know what I mean.
"I guess it's okay because I can't change how you are. You're a vampire and you feed on people to survive. Goodnight Damon." Liliah said and Damon gave her kiss on her head. She heard a whoosh and she closed the doors on the balcony going on her bed for a night of sleep.
Later that night; Mr and Mrs. Lockwood were in front of Liliah's room seeing her fast asleep. The sheriff came in next and they just stared at her.
"Do you think she's the girl we need." Sheriff Forbes asked.
"We don't know yet but when we do those vampires will know they stumbled into the wrong town." Carol said.
