Stiles POV

I was currently sat in the living room, with Damon and Stefan, nursing a bottle of whiskey and trying to ignore Stefan.

He wants us all to leave town because he didn't think we should stay here anymore. I didn't want to leave; I'm starting to enjoy myself in this little nifty town. My home.

"So, any idea of where you'll go?" Stefan asked looking between me and Damon. "I don't know. London I suppose, see some friends" Damon told him, making me laugh.

"Really? What friends, Damon? I wasn't aware you had any" I laughed, making him snap his head towards me, instead of staring out the window.

"Your right Stiles. I only have you and Stefan... So where are we all going?" He asked looking between me and Stefan.

"We are not going anywhere. I'm going to live my life as far away from you two as possible" Stefan told us standing behind a seat that was next to where I sat.

"Ouch, that hurt Stefan... But don't worry, I don't want to be near you two either. I'm going to stay in good old Mystic Falls. I like being back home, and you don't want to be around Elena, so you won't have to see me" I smirked at him before having another drink.

"We're a team. We can travel the world together. We can all try out for the amazing race" Damon said walking over to us, with his famous smirk on his face.

"Mm, that's funny, but seriously where are you both going 'cause we're not staying in this town" Stefan said right when the doorbell rang.

I frowned, not expecting any visitors. Once Stefan opened the door, I heard Liz's voice float through the house. "I'm here to see Damon and Stiles. Are they in?"

I flicked my eyes over to Damon who looked confused as well. I shrugged my shoulders as we both walked over to the door.

"Sheriff. What a surprise" Damon smiled at her. "I'm sorry to bother you both, but we need to talk" She told us, giving us a look. I nodded and looked at Stefan, silently telling him to leave.

What's going off? Lexi's dead, so what the hell does she want? And I haven't killed anyone, so it definitely wasn't me. I'm innocent.

I'm sure it wasn't Damon, he's been keeping himself to blood bags like me, and I'm 100% it wasn't Stefan, he's still broody, to be drinking from humans.

"Come on in" I smiled at her before I led her out to the back. Damon, behind her while Stefan went off somewhere else in the house, probably listening in.

"I hope you can understand the secrecy. Stefan doesn't know yet, and we'd like to keep it that way" Damon told her as we stood on the patio, outside.

"Of course. Kids are too young to be brought into this" Liz said. "So what do you need?" I asked her.

"There's been another attack. A female victim, her throat torn out, completely drained of blood. It fits the pattern" She told us.

What?

Me and Damon shared a look. "I'm sorry. I don't understand. I thought we solved that problem when I... staked the blonde one" Damon whispered the last bit, meaning Lexi.

"I'm thinking she must have turned someone. Or multiple someone's. I don't know" Liz rambled. "The story for the town is another animal attack, but I'm not sure how long we can keep lying to them. The council is in an uproar. We thought we were past this"

"So, uh, what do we do?" I asked. "Damon's the only one who's ever taken on a vampire. We were hoping you both could tell us" She told us looking between me and Damon.
