Stefan groaned as he hung from the ceiling the vervain causing him pain. Harper was tied to a chair in front of him for trying to help him.
"Thank you for trying to help me,"
"They just needed someone to blame, someone to punish," at that point the door burst open to reveal Elena and Eliza.
"Elena, Eliza," Stefan was surprised to see them.
"You shouldn't be here,"
"They were suppose to stay in the car," Damon ratted them out as he stood between Stefan and Henry.
Jackie was so happy he was alright as she leaned down kissing him in happiness as Elena started helping Stefan.
"Let's get you down," Damon walked over to release him but stalled as Stefan spoke up.
"There's vervain on the ropes,"
"Elena pull that," he gestured to her to release the ropes.
"Alright let's go, clothes on," Damon ordered as he caught Stefan and made sure he was steady on his feet before letting go and walking back to the door where Eliza and her uncle Henry waited.
"Can you all get to the car?,"
"Yes please be careful Damon,"
"Always darling," Eliza kissed his cheek as she followed after the group.
Damon took off back upstairs as the group headed back the way Eliza and Elena had entered. Henry followed Damon assuring his niece he would be ok but she needed to go.
"Turn that down," Fredrick ordered realizing that something wasn't right.
"It's too quiet," as he spoke up the girl that stood by the door collapsed dead with a stake protruding from her back.
"Spread out now,"
"All right," the others agreed as they started searching the house.
"You two back of the house, go," he ordered sending the first two behind him outside.
"Check out both rooms. Cellar now," he ordered another as he bent down taking the stake from the girl's back.
Outside Elena lead Stefan towards where they left the car as Eliza walked behind them with Jackie and Harper walking behind her.
"Can you make it?," Elena asked as he collapsed to his knees from the pain taking her down with him.
"You okay?,"
"Yeah, we gotta keep going come on," Elena slung his arm over her shoulders again helping him stand and beginning to walk again.
Back in the house Fredrick walked past the doorway to a room noticing it was dark for some reason. Turning back towards it he then noticed the vampire staked to the table within. He didn't have long to take it in though as Damon speared him into the wall.
Slamming each other into wall after wall Damon finally got Fredrick down and was getting a few good shots in before two of his henchmen grabbed his arms pulling him off him.
Fredrick took off as Damon started fighting the two other vampires taking advantage of the chance to escape for the moment.
As Damon got one guy down the other tried to attack from behind til he fell dead. Behind him stood Alaric vampire gun raised.
"I'm going after Fredrick," Damon took off leaving Alaric behind.
Outside Elena and Stefan finally made it to the car as Eliza unlocked the car so that her sister could help him inside.
Elena got Stefan into the passenger seat as Jackie got Harper into the back seat.
Eliza got into the back seat with them as Elena got into the driver seat to get them out of there.
"Stefan..," Elena said worried as she realized the steering wheel was busted.
Suddenly the passenger door window shattered.
A hand grabbed Stefan by the shirt pulling him out of the car. Turned out to be Fredrick no wonder he ran when he had the chance.
Eliza was scared Stefan was weak as was Harper. Jackie couldn't protect everyone. Slipping out of the car Eliza toed off her boots and removed her socks noticing what she was about to do worked better when she was connected to the earth.
As Stefan tried to fight back and Jackie did her best Eliza walked around the car behind Fredrick.
"You killed my parents, you hurt my friends, you tried to destroy my town due to a centuries long hatred cause you couldn't accumulate now you shall die," Eliza said in a monotone as her eyes began to glow purple.
Her hands became tight as she held them out in front of her. Fredrick turned eyes wide in shock at what he was witnessing. Elena grabbed Stefan pulling him around the car as Jackie jumped over the roof of the car to get out of the way.
Suddenly a blast of green light shot forth from her hands eradicating Fredrick into dust. What no one realized was that Elena was doing one very stupid thing she had sliced her hand with a shard of the glass from the ground and was feeding Stefan human blood for the first time in a long time.
Not only were they going from one problem they were going right into another very serious problem.
