A few days, murders, violently disemboweled humans, compelled humans, decapitated humans, bodies drained of blood, and temporary deaths later, the youngest Mikaelson brother and the youngest Mikaelson sister were back in Mystic Falls thanks to middle child number who knows what.

"Rebekahhh," said Kol when he got the text. "She wants us back in Virginia."

Keira dropped a dead body. "We gonna go?"

"You can, if you want," said Kol. "I like New York and I'm not leaving so soon."

Keira's phone dinged. "Rebekah says if you come you very possibly get to beat someone up."

Kol smiled. "Ok, I'll come." 

Immediately upon entering the city, Kol went to some random occult professor dudes office to kidnap him. Keira went to the high school.

"Look what the cat dragged in!" said Rebekah, standing next to a table with Stefan, Caroline, and Elena. Stefan looked very clearly upset, and the girls were staring at each other as if they each thought the other were traitors.

"What happened here?" Keira asked.

"Did he get what I wanted?" Rebekah asked.

"On his way, told me to meet you here. I'll ask again, what happened here?"

"Elena and Stefan broke up," said Rebekah. Keira looked at Elena as if saying 'idiot.' "Then little miss doppelganger here slept with Stefan's brother a day later."

Keira looked at Elena. "And I thought you doppelgangers were smarter... Damon? Really?"

Then Kol's head popped through the door, holding onto the arm of a tall man with dark brown curly hair.

"Sister!" he said. "Look at this! You're even worse than Klaus," he gestured to the hostages.

"Kol, finally. Did you bring what I asked for?" said Rebekah. Kol shoved the man into the library.

"Cool. You got professor dude," said Keira. Rebekah walked up to him.

"You must be Shane."

Rebekah and Keira brought Shane into the custodial closet, which had plenty of objects capable of turning into wonderfully violent weapons.

"Kol, Rebekah, and Keira Mikaelson," said Professor Shane. "Three members of the Original vampire family. This is such a trip."

Rebekah stepped forwards to him and looked into his eyes. "Where's the cure?"

Shane smiled. "Compulsion won't work. It's a little trick I picked up in Tibet."

"Right. Well, we'll just have to do this the old-fashioned way," the Original replied. Kol and Keira  looked at each other and smiled. "You two," Rebekah said. "Beat him until he tells you where to find it."

Rebekah left the room, leaving her two siblings there with the professor. Kol immediately turned on the sink and closed the drain, before shoving Shane's face into it.

"Where, is, the cure!" he said gleefully as he dunked Shane's head in the sink, effectively drowning him.

"Come on, brother! I'm bored, let me have at it!" said Keira. Kol sighed, keeping the professors head in for another moment before the two switched places.

"Where's the cure?" Keira said. When he didn't reply, she dunked his head back in. Then Rebekah came inside.

"You're human, why  do you want it anyways?" she said.

"That's the beauty of this. You can have it. I just want Silas," he replied. The other two looked at each other for a moment, before Kol grabbed his shirt and held him up.

"No," he said angrily. "What do you know about Silas?"

"He's the world's first immortal being, who just happens to be imprisoned with the cure...and I want to free him!" said Shane.

"No!" Keira yelled, before speeding towards him and biting his neck. Suddenly, with her supernatural hearing, she heard someone screaming in pain from a different room, and smelt blood coming from the same place.

"Stop!" said Rebekah and she stopped. Having barely fed for a moment, Shane was barely dying. "He's no use to us dead, heal him!"

"Sister, if I give him my blood, then when we kill him he'll just come back as a vampire and we'll have to kill him again, a real tedious process!" Keira replied. "And did you not just hear what he said? Silas will kill us all, sister."

"Silas, does not exist. He is a-a fairytale made up to scare children into eating their vegetables!" Rebekah replied.

"What, like vampires, witches, and werewolves?" replied her sister.

"Silas is very real. I know where he's buried, and soon I will have the spell that wakes him," Shane said, holding his bleeding neck.

Kol stepped forward again. "Wait a second, you're lying. You can't get to him without his-"

"Tombstone? Dozens to die in a blood sacrifice? Believe me, I know. I've done it. Those massacres are a pain to engineer."

"You're the one who got the council blown up!" said Rebekah.

"And the one who tricked Nik into killing his hybrids!" said Keira, remembering that text.

"They were noble sacrifices...and temporary, because once I raise Silas, Silas will raise the dead. He will bring back every last soul who died on his behalf," said Shane. Suddenly, Keira noticed Kol was no longer next to her, and then, a second later, Shane had a metal pipe in his stomach.

"No!" yelled Rebekah and Kol dropped the pipe and Shane's lifeless body. Keira, weirdly, heard more yelling from the room she'd heard from earlier, but ignored it.

Suddenly, another sound joined the mix- a wolf, growling.

"What did you do?" Keira said.

Rebekah inhaled. "I might have compelled Tyler Lockwood to turn."

"You did what? Bex, it's barely been a month since my last run in with werewolf venom, I'm not sure I want to do that again!"

"Well too bad! Why the bloody hell would you kill him, Kol?!" Rebekah practically yelled.

"You should be thanking me," Kol said calmly, since killing random people was considerably normal for him.

"You killed my only chance at finding the cure," Rebekah said angrily.

"Silas on the loose would be hell on Earth. Frankly, sister, I don't think you could handle it," said Keira. Rebekah looked confused for a moment, before Kol pulled out the indestructible white oak stake. Rebekah glared at him.

"How did you get that?" she asked.

"Way to easily," Kol replied. The werewolf growled again, and the three chaotic siblings heard it bark from the room they were in. Kol grabbed Keira's hand. "Come on, sis, I don't think either of us want a wolf bite today." Both of them sped away.
