Cordelia's hearing returned first, a ringing echoed through her ears before she tried to open her eyes with no success. Cordelia focused her hearing on the floorboards first, they creaked under the weight of something ─ or someone. Flashes of being kidnapped played through her mind resulting in her eyes snapping open remembering that Elena had been taken as well. The blonde's gaze landed on Elena who was unconscious with a man next to her, he brushed her hair aside and whispered, "Just one taste." Cordelia's hand tingled as she waved her finger causing the man to soar away from her and hit the wall. The action sent searing pain through her body, she definitely wouldn't be using magic again in a while.
"Trevor!" A woman exclaimed as she rushed over to him and helped him up. "Cordelia?" Elena groggily spoke before pushing off of the couch and stumbling over to the blonde that was tied down by ropes in a chair. "Elena, are you okay?" Cordelia asked the brunette with genuine concern and worry in her eyes that made Elena feel guilt for all the times she was harsh to the younger Forbes. "I think so. Are you?" Elena asked as she moved to untie her only for the woman to grab her wrist and pull her back. "That's our safeguard," The woman warned as she shoved Elena onto the couch and looked towards Trevor as he left the room with a bruised ego.
"What do you want with us?" Elena asked the pixie cut brunette. "Oh my God, you look just like her," She replied once she finally looked at the Gilbert girl. "But I'm not. Please, whatever you--" Elena was cut off harshly by the woman, "Be quiet!" Cordelia watched the two closely as the familiar burn continued through her body, she had never felt anything like this before; it was like something was locking down her magic. "But I'm not Katherine. My name is Elena Gilbert; you don't have to do this to us!" Elena pleaded with the woman. "I know who you are ─ who you both are. And I said be quiet," The woman replied to Elena's pleas. "What do you want?" Elena asked but the woman slapped her efficiently knocking Elena unconscious.
"Why does it burn?" Cordelia breathed out catching the woman's attention, she turned to the blonde and knelt in front of her. "You're a beautiful girl, aren't you?" The woman asked rhetorically, "Seems right for you to be destined for a beast... the classic beauty and the beast cliche." Cordelia looked into the woman's eyes, "Why does it burn?" She didn't care for the woman's words, she just wanted to know why she felt so much pain coursing through her and blocking her magic. "It's Mistletoe. Toxic in large doses for Starlights but small doses are like vervain to vampires," The woman explained, "It's blocking your magic so you don't escape or kill us." Cordelia glared at the woman as she left the room.

Meanwhile, Caroline was walking downstairs looking at her phone when a knock on the door caught her attention. The older Forbes opened the door to see Tyler standing before her, she swallowed with uncertainty as the last they had seen each other, the boy had triggered his curse. "Hey Tyler. I thought you and Jeremy were meeting this morning to talk about the... first full moon?" Caroline asked him with furrowed brows. "I was hoping that maybe Cordelia was here. She promised to help me if this ever... well, happened," Tyler replied to her as he looked towards the stairs searching for the blonde who always managed to keep him calm and happy.
