Elena woke up in a room that looked unfamiliar to her. She noticed someone sleeping in a chair nearby. She tried to sneak past him, but he woke up. "I wouldn't." He said. She turned around. He looked at her. She realized he was trying to compel her. "Don't try to escape. Don't even move. Understand?"

"I understand." Elena ran to the door and opened it, only to find Anna behind it.

"Really?"

"I told her not to move!" The guy said. "I even did that eye thing you taught me."

"She probably takes vervain. Ben, you know humans aren't effected by it."

"What do you want with me?" Elena asked.

"Does it matter?" Anna said, dragging her into the bathroom. She closed the door on her. Elena looked around and saw Bonnie unconscious.

"Bonnie!" She went to her side immediately.

At the Boarding House, Stefan found Damon in the living room. He immediately looked up and knew something was up. "Anna got Elena."

"How?"

"Jenna let her in." Stefan said. "Jeremy's worried sick. I've been trying to track her down, but it's impossible."

"Wait, did you say Jenna let her in?" Damon said.

"She's like them, too." Stefan guessed. "That's why Jeremy couldn't let her in."

"If we only knew where she was staying, that would make it easier." Damon said.

"I don't know where else to look." Stefan told him.

"Look, I don't care about Elena, but I'm not going to let some other vamp chick try to set her up." Damon said. "I'm sure we'll be able to find her."

Back at the Motel Room, Elena woke Bonnie up. "Bonnie."

"Elena?"

"You're okay."

"My head…"

"Damn it." Elena held Bonnie.

"Oh, God! Ben's a…" Elena motioned for her to be quiet.

"They can hear." She reminded her.

"I'm so stupid."

"No, they had us all fooled." Elena said.

"Why are we here?" Bonnie asked.

"It must have something to do with the tomb and Emily's spell book." Elena said.

"Spell book?" Bonnie asked.

"Damon said it could be used to open the tomb." She said. "I didn't think they'd try to use you."

"Use me? For what?" Bonnie asked.

"They need a witch to break the spell and free the vampires." Elena explained.

"No way!"

"I'm not going to let them force you to do it." Elena told her. "We'll get out of this somehow." Ben entered the room then.

"You're wasting your time. I'm not gonna help you." Bonnie told him.

"That's why she's here." Ben told her. "Motivation for you to behave. You know, you shouldn't have been so desperate. You made it too easy." He grabbed Elena and pulled her out of the room.

"Hey!"

"She wants to talk to you." He told her.

"Elena Gilbert." Anna said. "Whoa, you really do look like her. No wonder those two like you."

"Who are you?"

"My name's Anna. Hasn't you're brother mentioned me? We got kinda close during that research paper."

At the Grill, Jeremy was reading the paper. He was trying to take his mind off Elena, but listening to see if there were any clues as the where she was. Vicki was working, and to his surprise, Matt was helping her. Apparently, she'd talked him into getting a job there since she'd be graduating this year. Tyler was at the pool table.

"Ten kegs? You know how much damage we could do with ten kegs? Duke's got it all hooked up."

"Seriously, I'm trying to be more responsible and you're trying to get me drunk?" Vicki told him.

"Besides, Duke's a douche." Matt said.

"Yeah, a douche with ten kegs. Aka my new best friend." Jeremy laughed.

"What's your problem, Gilbert?"

"Don't have one, Lockwood." He shot back.

"Yeah, I didn't think so." Tyler said.

"Do you ever get bored of it?" Matt asked

"Of what?"

"Yourself." The guys laughed.

"Keep laughing, buddy." Tyler said.

"Just ignore them, Ty." Vicki told him. She headed to the back room. Caroline headed over to Jeremy.

"Hey, Jeremy. Where is Elena? I've been texting her and Bonnie all day about Duke's party."

"She went somewhere with Stefan." Jeremy covered. He figured it'd be better than telling her she was missing.

"I am so not going to be one of those girls who disappears just because she has a new boyfriend." Caroline said. She and Matt were sort of dating now, though everyone was pretty cool with it.

"Who's Duke?" Jeremy asked.

"Some guy that graduated a couple of years ago. And he throws a party every time he comes home from Duke." Caroline explained.

"Wait, Duke goes to Duke?" Jeremy asked.

"His real name's Bob or something." She told him. "He's a total ass, but, he buys the beer. You should come."

"Uh, yeah, I don't think so." Jeremy said. He was so done with the party scene, especially after the last one.

"No, seriously. Everyone goes. Even quiet sad little loner brothers. Think about it." Caroline said. And that was typical Caroline, saying something that was meant to offend him.

"Is that really how I come across?" He asked.

"Sort of." She said, walking away from him.

At the Salvatores, the guys were looking through their ancestor's journal for clues. "Of course, we should've known." Damon said. "This journal mentions Anna as being the daughter of the woman who ran the apothecary, Pearl."

"She seemed normal though." Stefan said. "I wonder…Elena told me the only reason they could walk around normally is because a witch helped them." They looked at each other.

A few minutes later, Damon was outside a house. He knocked on the door. Bonnie's grandmother appeared. "Yes?"

"Hey, I'm looking for Bonnie." He told her.

"She's not here."

"Do you know where she…"

"No."

"Wow. You must be related to Emily." Damon said.

"How do you know that name?"

"She was a neighbor of mine when I was little."

"Well, what do you want with me, Mr. Salvatore?" Grams asked.

"We think you're granddaughter was kidnapped by a vampire."

"Come on, you might want to tell me what you know about it." Grams said. They went inside.

Elena was sitting across from Anna in the hotel room. "Bonnie's not gonna open the tomb." She told her.

"Oh, I think she will." Anna said.

"Why are you doing this? What do you want?" Elena asked.

"My mother's in there." Anna told her. "When they rounded up the vampires in 1864, she got caught trying to save me. I watched Jonathan Gilbert take her away

"I'm sorry. I didn't know."

"You couldn't have known." Anna said. "You really mean it, don't you? I think we'll skip the whole dead mom bonding so you can serve a purpose."

"Which is what?" Elena asked. "Wait, how did you know she was dead?"

"Leverage." Anna said, not answering her question. However, Elena noticed her eyes seemed sad, like there was something about her that she knew. "This belong to you?" She held up Elena's phone. Elena looked down, surprised she'd taken it without her looking. She answered it.

"Elena? Are you okay?" She heard Stefan saying.

"She's fine." Anna told him. "Tell me you have the grimoire and she'll stay fine."

"I can get it." Stefan told her.

"So your brother has it. One of you better meet me in the town square in thirty minutes so we can safely discuss how fun it'll be to work together." Anna said, hanging up.

"That was her, all right." Stefan said. He looked to Damon.

"I'll make sure she knows we're not on the same side here." He told him. He left the room.

"I'm leaving." Anna told Ben. He and Bonnie entered the room. "Keep them buttoned down. Compulsion won't work. Just use violence." She told him.

Right. I got that." Anna left Ben with them. "Sit. Behave. You're the key to this .Literally. The one who opens the door. Tell me, how long have you been a witch?"

"Is there anything to drink here?" Elena interrupted.

"Are you offering?" Ben asked. Elena glared at him. "There's water on the nightstand." Elena grabbed the glass.

"Hey. Can I have a sip?" Bonnie asked. Elena handed it to her. Bonnie threw it on Ben and set it on fire. He backed off. Elena opened the door, but he grabbed her.

"Come back in, shut the door!" He said.

"Don't hurt her!" Bonnie yelled.

"Don't make me!" Suddenly, Elena's features changed and she threw him off her.

"Surprised?" Elena asked. "Next time you kidnap someone, make sure they're human." Ben looked at the girls in surprise.

Jeremy was walking through town when he saw Anna. He decided to play it cool so he might be able to find out where his sister was. "Hey, Anna. What happened to you last night?" He asked.

"Sorry, I had to leave." Anna told him. "I thought your sister would've told you."

"I haven't seen her." Jeremy said.

"Well, I have to go."

"Wait." Jeremy said, catching her arm. "You wanna go to a party tonight?" This was part of their plan. He was going to distract Anna during the party while they tried to break Katherine out.

"What?" Anna asked.

"The guy throwing it's a total jerk, but it's supposed to be fun." Jeremy said. "I figured, since we're friends, why not?"

"So, you're asking me out?" Anna asked.

"No, not like that." Jeremy said. "It's been a while since I've had fun. I don't want to come across as that loner guy. Besides, you seem fun, though a little weird, but that's kinda cool. It's in the woods, near that old cemetery."

"I'll meet you there." Anna told him.

"Okay, cool." Jeremy said. "Later." He left then, hoping that this plan was going to work.

Anna sat down on a bench. Damon showed up and sat next to her. "Got a hot date or are you planning to kidnap the entire Gilbert family, vamp girl?"

"So you know." Anna said. "A party right by the old cemetery. How convenient."

"We're not letting anyone else out of there." Damon told her. "Who knows what chaos will happen in town?"

"Well, you're minus a witch and I'm minus a spell book." Anna pointed out.

"You know we'll take you down, right? Especially Stefan, since his Elena's in trouble."

"Then he won't be happy when he finds her dead."

"Oh, I don't know about that." Damon said. "Elena's pretty good at holding her own when it comes to your kind."

"Fine, see if I care." Anna said. She got up and left.

Back at the hotel, Ben found himself cornered by the two girls. "How is it that you two are friends?"

"I don't think you're in any position to make us tell you anything." Bonnie said. She hesitated. "Are you sure? I don't want to accidentally hurt you, too."

"No problem. I have a back-up plan." Elena told her. She threw the door open and Ben started burning. She noticed earlier he didn't have a daylight charm.

"Come on!" She heard a voice yell. She and Bonnie ran outside. The three of them broke into a run.

"Stefan, how'd you find us?"

"We asked you're grandmother to help." Stefan told them.

A few minutes later, they were at the house of Bonnie's grandmother. "How did you know where we were?" Bonnie asked her.

"Many things can fuel a witch's power." Grams told her. "Worry, anger. After the Salvatores told me they'd taken you, I had a lot of both. A simple locator spell was easy after that."

"Sorry about all this." Bonnie told her.

"Not as sorry as they're going to be." Grams said.

"So, what do we do now?" Elena asked as she and Stefan entered the room.

"Maybe we should call off the plan." Stefan suggested.

"Those two might follow you." Grams said.

"About that, we've been forming another plan." Elena said. "Jeremy will try to distract them while we help him free Katherine."

"Are you insane?" Bonnie asked. "What if he gets killed? These vampires are stronger than you."

"We can handle it, Bonnie." Elena said. "Besides, it's not like he doesn't know what she's up to."

"I'll help you open the tomb." Grams spoke up. "You get that young girl out of there and take out the vampires with fire. Then it'll all be over."

"I don't know, that might be too risky." Stefan pointed out.

"What choice do we have?" Elena asked.

"I know, but there's no way my brother will agree." Stefan pointed out.

"I'll talk to him." Elena said.

At the Boarding House, Damon was busy organizing a bookshelf, when he heard a knock at the door. He answered and Elena came in. "Hey. They didn't hurt you, did they?"

"No, but they were surprised to learn I was one of them." Elena said. "We convinced Bonnie and her grandmother to help."

"What?"

"Look, that spell book's useless without a witch and Sheila knows a lot more about this stuff than Bonnie does." Elena said.

"Are you sure about that?"

"Who do you think gave us our daylight jewels?" Elena pointed out, indicating to her necklace and ring. "Not to mention these lie detector rings." She put one down on the table. "It's the only way we could think of to help."

"It's too much of a risk, Elena." Damon pointed out.

"I know. But it's the only way we know of to get into the tomb." Elena said. Damon looked down at the ring and put it on.

"What time should we do this?" He asked. Elena was glad he was on their side, so why did she have a feeling things were going to go wrong?
