Aeliana woke up early the next morning thanks to her phone, as per usual.
"Service electric, how many I assist you?"
"Ana, darling."
"What do you want, Kol?"
"To apologize for last night. Snapping your neck was a little rash, but Silas can't be raised."
"How about you tell us why you're afraid of him instead of being vague about it?"
"He wants to bring back every supernatural creature from the other side, Ana. I don't think you realize that our enemies aren't exactly lacking."
"I can understand why that could be bad," Aeliana looked over at Elijah who was now awake, motioning for her to put the call on speaker.
"Do you think there might be a way to obtain the cure without raising Silas?"
"Good to hear your voice Elijah. But no, I don't think so. Anyways, I have to run. Killing vampires all day is very exhausting." Kol hung up the phone before giving them a second to respond.
"Ali! My favorite sister in law," Nik burst through the door, not bothering to knock.
"What do you want?"
"How would you like to babysit Damon with me while," he then turned to Elijah, "you help Stefan retrieve the dagger from our dear sister?"
The couple gave Nik a blank look.
"I know you both hate the idea of me having the dagger, but Kol is getting wreckless with his actions. He crossed the line last night at trying to kill Rebekah and snapping your neck. Until the cure is found, he needs to be put down," he walked out, not giving them a choice in the matter.

Nik and Aeliana approached the cell that was holding Damon, who looked up and saw them staring at him.
"Hello, mate," Nik smirked.
Damon got up weakly. "What the hell are you two doing here?"
Aeliana smirked at the raven haired vampire. "Babysitting."
"Oh."
Stefan appeared out of no where with instructions. "Give him a vial of blood every couple of hours, so he doesn't desiccate. If he gets too much strength back, or if he just annoys you, bleed him out again."
Damon looked over at this brother. "Silent treatment, huh? Is that your best shot?" He turned to the duo before finishing, "He's still pissed at me for sleeping with Elena. Thank you for that, by the way, Aeliana."
"It was my pleasure."
"You sure about that though? Because I saw him trying to sneak out of Rebekah's bed this morning, which would suggest to me that he moved on," Nik smirked over at Stefan who sighed.
