17. Because The Night

"That is disgusting" Lily commented, entering the very messy Salvatore Boarding house and seeing her sister drink alcohol out of a cup laying on the table.

Caroline turned and immediately let out an annoyed groan seeing her sister standing there with Klaus, "What are you two doing here?".

"Not judging you, for starters" Klaus said.

"Talk for yourself, I am totally judging her" Lily stated, she looked at Caroline, "Surely you have it in you to get drunk in a bit more sanitary way, no?".

Caroline glared at her sister and without breaking contact with her downed another drink, "Well then, you showed us" Klaus teased.

"Shouldn't you be out chasing Tyler to the ends of the earth?" an annoyed Caroline asked, "Or were there still some hopes and dreams you want to crush around here?".

"Depends, do you happen to know where the young Brutus is?" Klaus asked.

"I know where he's not, with me" Caroline replied, throwing more cups into the bin in her hand, "He gave Matt the deed to the house, so he's gone for good".

"I don't get why you're so mad" Lily said, "If anything this is tit for tat".

"How the hell is this tit for tat, Lily?" an angry Caroline asked.

"You and your little band of loser friends made it their life mission to separate me from the man I love, so from where I'm standing, us driving Tyler away from you, is the consequences of your own actions, don't blame us for it" Lily said.

"Lily" Stefan warned, entering the living room and seeing the two sisters glaring at each other, "Calm down".

Lily took a deep breath before turning to her best friend, "Hey Stefan, like I promised, I brought Klaus, what is it that you want from him?".

"We need his help, I think Silas is in Mystic Falls" Stefan informed.

"So some blood went missing from a few hospitals" Klaus said, pouring himself a glass of bourbon after Stefan finished explaining everything he discovered to both Klaus and Lily, "What about Elena? Don't vampires with their humanity off tend to overindulge on human blood?", Klaus turned to face Stefan, "Or were you the exception?".

"It's not Elena" Stefan stated.

"Well, let's say for a moment that it was Silas" Klaus said, "I'm struggling to see how this affects me".

"Look Silas wants to die and be reunited with his one true love" Stefan informed, "But he's supernatural, so if he takes the cure and dies he's stuck on the other side".

"Kind of romantic" Lily commented, "In a very morbid kind of way".

"But if he destroys the other side altogether, he can take the cure, die and pass on" Stefan continued, "But in destroying it every dead supernatural being will return to our side".

"Every?" a slightly shocked Lily asked, her mind briefly going to her biological parents.

"Yes Lily, every werewolf, every witch, every vampire" Caroline said, she looked at Klaus, "I wonder how many of those you've personally killed, care yet?".
