Nyx woke up to a loud bang coming from downstairs. She jolted up and walked out of her bedroom.

"Hello?" Her voice echoed. "Jeremy." She walked towards the stairs to look down and saw a shadow move across the wall. She quickly ran down the stairs and into the kitchen. "Hello?" She asked again as she tried to turn on the lights, but the switch was broken. She flipped the switch multiple times until she realized they were never going to work.

"This is Logan fell coming to you live from the streets of mystic falls with breaking news of another deadly animal attack. The wild animal terrorizing the citizens of mystic falls has claimed another victim local high school student Nyx Gilbert." A picture of Nyx popped up on the screen. "Police are certain that forensic evidence will confirm that this is the same animal responsible for recent attacks." Nyx stood there in horror as she saw a picture of herself on the tv screen.

"You know it's coming." Damon's voice echoed through the empty dark house. Nyx turned around to see Damon in the kitchen. She ran for the front door but once it was opened Damon stood on the other side with an evil grin. Nyx quickly shut the door and leaned against it to support herself but as she looked up and seen Damon. "Please." She begged as she covered her face with her hands afraid to look at him. Once she realized he wasn't going to hurt her she slowly removed her hands to get a peak. But the house was empty again. Damon was no where in sight. Quietly Nyx stood back up and looked around frantically trying to find where the vampire was hiding, but unfortunately she couldn't stop him. Big arms grabbed ahold of her as she felt a sting go through her neck. Damon sucking the life out of her. Nyx's screams was all you could hear throughout the house.

Stefan jolted up in a panic.

"Bad dream?" Damon spoke. He sat at my desk staring at me. "You know how easy it was to get inside your head just now? You really need some human blood. It might even the playing field. Football reference...Too soon?" Damon mocked me. I sped over to my bookshelf to grab a stake and threw it at Damon's chest unfortunately missing his heart. Damon wasn't fazed or hurt in the slightest. He stood up pulling the stake out not flenching. "All right I deserved that. But I just wanted you to know they caught the corporate, the animal responsible for killing coach Tanner and all those people." Damon informed me.

"What are you talking about?"

"It was a mountain lion a really big one." Damon emphasized with his hands. "It attacked a hunter this morning. It's all over the news. Deadly beast captured all's well in mystic falls." He gestured with his hands the title of the news paper article.

"Why would you cover your tracks?" I asked as Damon walked around my room.

"I decided to stay awhile and I'm just having way too much fun here with you and Nyx."

"Can't touch her now." I said simply knowing Damon can't get to her.

"We'll the vervain keeps me out of her head. Maybe that's not my target." He gave me a devious smirk. "Believe it or not Stefan some girls don't need my persuasion. Some girls just can't resist my good looks my style..." he then walked towards me twisting the stake in his hands. "My charm and my ability to listen to Taylor swift." He said stabbing me in the stomach. I grunted falling to the floor. Holding onto the stake. "This is John Varvatos dude dick move." Damon said checking the hole in his shirt then walked out.
