"What are you doing here?"Adela frowned as she took the last step down to the basement and neared Alaric standing in front of the cellar door.

"Babysitting duty,"he said and held up a bourbon bottle.

"How's he doing?"she questioned and folded her arms, nodding into the room where Damon was.

"He looks horrible,"he answered.

She let out a small laugh and heaved out a sigh.

"I need blood,"Damon coughed.

"I'll get it,"Adela said and walked toward the cooler.

She opened it and stared down at the huge amount of blood bags. She grabbed one and turned to the door as a presence filled the room with a gun in her hand.

Elizabeth took careful steps toward her.

"Where's Damon?"she questioned.

"You do not want to be here right now, Sheriff. It is not a good time,"Adela warned.

She grunted as Elizabeth pressed the trigger and two wooden bullets hit Adela. One shot right into her thigh and another into her stomach. She grabbed the cooler to stabilize herself.

Alaric ran into the room at the sound and frowned as Elizabeth aimed the gun at him.

"Sheriff, over here!"one of the deputies called out.

"I wouldn't go in there,"Alaric said with his palms up.

"I just wanna talk to him,"Elizabeth backed up until she was out the door.

"I wouldn't go in there!"he yelled.

He groaned as the door locked. He turned to Adela who was digging her fingers into the wounds to dig out the bullets.

"You okay?"he questioned.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Where's Elena?"Adela questioned back.

"Find out where she is,"she instructed.

Alaric pulled his phone out and dialed a number as she grabbed a blood bag and took a drink like it was juice. Her free hand grabbed the door and broke it open.

"Go! I'll be right behind you,"she said and tossed the empty blood bag aside.

He ran out of the room and headed for his car.

Ezekiel waited on the bed impatiently as he waited for Alexandra to return.

"What are you doing here? Are you insane?"she scolded and shut the door behind her, dropping her bag by the door.

"I had to make sure you were okay,"he said and stood up.

"Okay from what? What happened?"she frowned in confusion.

He opened his mouth to tell her everything but decided against it for her own good.

"Nothing.. I just needed to know you were safe,"he let out a sigh of relief.
