As on the news story reports of bodies drained of blood as the council rounds of the sheriff Benny's dad the mayor and his wife and the news reporter and a few deputies the founding families of this town
Sheriff brackett: we found a young girl dead this morning in the woods her body was mutilated it wasn't drained surprisingly but we do know the vampires are back who could've done this a wild animal maybe. Mayor Lockwood: maybe just say it was another animal attack. Deputy: sir we found more bodies deep in the woods same as this one but it was mutilated as in torn to pieces claw marks in multiple places on the bodies same as teeth marks but these teeth marks are more grounded and more big like something came after them was more huge than any vampire like a beast. As a huge form of a wolf is watching them from a far it's Tom Riley with blood around his mouth with a beast look he killed those people in the woods
The next day comes around Sarah is looking for Scott through the woods she thinks to herself "do they think I don't know what going on" as she sees Benny and Rory asleep against a tree she wakes them up Benny: what are you doing? Sarah: better question what the hell are you guys doing waking Scott up I know what he is and if Jessie or Dwight finds out they will kill him or use him for his blood or wolf venom.
Benny: calm down we have this under control he didn't get out and he's trying to keep his rage and hunger under control.
Sarah: I'm a fledgling vampire even I don't have it under control we need to get him help his father or someone that knows this whole werewolf thing than I do cause only thing I relate to is the hunger.
Benny: his dad helped out with the chains and wolfsbane to diminish his strength and power.
Sarah: do you have anymore there was a report on more dead bodies that were mutilated it wasn't by a vampire it was from a wolf.
Benny: impossible he was here the whole night Sarah! It couldn't be he was here he transitioned into a wolf here it wasn't him it was another I swear!
Sarah: he's the wolf we know about unless we find the other one he's a dead man
We cut to Scott waking up in the chamber with Benny and Sarah keeping an eye on him to make sure he still wasn't a wolf
Scott: oh man! That hurts like a bitch how long was I out?
Benny: almost a day when you were in wolf form you were sleep after that for 2 hours.
Scott: how's my dad, my mom?
Sarah: we took care of it.
Scott: thank you.
As he smiles generously
Benny: what do we do now?
Scott: I find something to sustain my condition my dad knows how.
Sarah: and if you don't.
Scott: I dunno I keep hope alive I guess. As we cut to Jesse black a vampire with a bunch of other vampires as Dwight justice approaches him is the cubule animoose ready? He says yes
We see Tom Riley Scott's other cousin he's an omega  werewolf being used for his wolf venom he's in soo much pain but when an omega wants out he gets out as he notices there's a party with a bunch of college kids he can't control his hunger or his appetite for humans he breaks free he also hears his cousin scott and his friends
We cut to there perspective 3 hours earlier we see Ethan walking home from school we see Sarah sneak up behind him as a joke he gets scared but his mom sees them from outside the window concerned as they walk in we see Benny already at the table
Benny: guys I have something to tell you? It's Rory he hasn't answered his phone all day he didn't show up for school.
Ethan: he went to that college senior party?
Sarah: wait the senior party the one where Jessie and his vamps are gonna be at at Jessie's house.
Benny: oh shit? As they all run to get Scott and warn him about the party they pull up to the house and sneak in through the back while Sarah distracts Erica and Jessie from them getting in
As Ethan and Benny grab Rory whilst Scott goes to find his cousin as Scott finds him chained beaten and bruised with wolfsbane in his system using his venom as a loophole cure for a werewolf bite with the original witch's magic book he rips the chains off
Scott: I'm getting you outta here buddy come on! He drags Tom out of the cell and through out the house from underground
As Ethan and Benny find Rory
Rory: Ayo guys wassup you came to this wicked party glad you came it's not the same without you. Ethan: rory this is a college senior party your a junior In high school you don't belong here we don't belong here.
Rory: but I wanted to have fun with you guys that's why I invited you guys where's Scott he's supposed to be here. As they take Rory upstairs to see if they can get out through a window as they approach the stairs they hear Dwight talking with Jesse and the other vamps
Jesse: alright guys so here's the plan I grab Sarah she finally feeds making her finally immortal as no longer a fledgling we stake stefan and Damon you feed on the rest of the humans out there and we will have our army and revenge on this hell hole of a town we're all hungry the moon is full let's eat.
Ethan: we have to move and leave fast!
As the door opens as gord leaves the room with blood around his mouth as Erica looks like he was bitten but it heals as she walks out the room as he looks at her and goes
Durk: finally your awake you're in transition. As he smiles he takes her to the living room where everybody else is as Ethan and Benny take Rory to the door
Ethan: it's locked. As they speed walk to the back door they're stopped by durk 
Durk: whoa whoa where you girls going you're just in time for dinner.
Ethan:we'll shit!
As Jesse catches Sarah and what she is up to he drags her to the living room where everyone is and as Scott watches them from a distance trying to figure out a power play with Stefan sneaking up behind him
Stefan: so what's your game plan your just gonna go all guns and blazing in these vamps all of them are atleast 5x your age they're all 5-6 hundred years older than you they're too strong.
Scott: I didn't say anything about me my cousin here is hungry for vampire flesh so you better get out of here while you still can. As Stefan speeds out of there
We cut to Jesse
Jesse: so these are the idiots you've been hanging with.
Dwight: what's the commotion out here ah Sarah dully noted she's responsible for the wolf escape Tom is gone his chains are broken he was being pumped up with wolfsbane he could've got out by himself there's just no way. As Dwight gets back with Jesse and durk
Dwight: alright I'm going to count to three you're going to tell me the truth on who let my special wolf out of his cage or I will let Erica feed on your special little friend and I heard fledglings can't stop feeding until they're victim is dead so what's it gonna be gentlemen you're gonna tell me or say bye to your friend. As they hesitate
Dwight: huh? So nothing okay Erica go ahead feed on him until he dies. As she hears blood pumping through the veins in his neck and throughout his body as her vampire face grows like a demon
Sarah: Erica No!
As she starts to feed on Rory she's killing him ethan stabs her in the leg and shoulder Stefan shows back up and pushes Dwight out of the way
Dwight: Stefan you wont ruin what I have planned for tonight not now not when I'm close to bringing her back.
Stefan: bring who back?
Damon: step back little bro leave this yo the big boys.
Dwight: he didn't tell you did he wow this is just great.
Stefan: tell me what?
Dwight: we plan on bringing Katherine back.
Stefan: but she died.
Damon: did she did she really they stuck her underneath the church to burn it down but Emily spelled the tomb to protect the rest of the vampires down there including her.
Stefan: with that many vampires roaming beacon falls will be a slaughter house Damon you can't!!
Damon: oh brother I can and I will the only one I can trust and count on with this is me you made sure of that many years ago Stefan when you left keep, Elena out of this you know if you wanna keep her alive because if she starts to snoop and realize what me and you are I will snap and shatter her spine before she can even blink and you know I will.
Stefan: why are you doing this?
Damon: because I love her and I would do anything to bring Katherine back unlike you she's never left my mind she's always been there for me.
Stefan: I'm sorry Damon but I can't let you do this.
Damon: I'm sorry did you say you weren't going to let me I'm 5x stronger than you stefan what did I say if you tried to get in my way what'd I say?
Stefan: I don't care.
As Damon launches at Stefan throwing him out of a window as Ethan takes out his crossbow and kills two vamps and shoots Damon in the shoulder and throws a vervain grenade into the air it stuns the vampires a vampire repellent

Dwight: dammit just cause you get bite you're now my problem jesse get me a witch to bind wolf blood with the venom so you can cure him.
Jesse: she's right here.
Dwight: hello Bonnie I need a favor from you to help me catch a wolf cause see I need as much wolf venom I need not only to protect my guys but to make as many miracle cures as needed for the war I'm about to start.

Stefan: yes he chooses to drink human blood and kill as his way to survive I don't I drink animal blood it keeps me alive and stable just not as strong as him he can be very powerful.
Elena: yet you knew he was hurting Erica.
Stefan: she doesn't remember what was happening to her he put some mind control on her as a sort of mind compulsion she didn't even know it was happening to her.
Elena: and that makes it okay?
Stefan: no Elena none of this makes it okay come on let's go we gotta get out of here anyway.
