"Can this be?" Silas held his fingertips to his chest, feigning a look of surprise. "Has my daughter come to visit her father?"

"I was knocked out." Sybil stated, "Thanks for the heads up, by the way. I didn't know we had our own weakness."

A sly grin bloomed on his face. "Ah. Shane found out about Amaranth. I'm impressed."

"I'm glad he has the ability to impress you." She muttered back. Then, her eyes closed as she focused on pushing him out of her mind.

"Tsk. Tsk. You can't push me out, Sybil." She went to yell at him but he held up his hands and placed them on either side of her arms. "Hey. I'm sorry. In all seriousness, I've missed you." Silas' mischievous expressions turned dark. He pulled her into hug, thankful when she didn't pull away, and squeezed her tightly.

After a moment she did.

"Yea I've miss you too." She replied plainly. "Or the person you used to be. Anyway, that's not important. I need you to wake me up."

"Ah to help you little friends." Silas folded his arms across his chest then smiled playfully. "Oh. Oh. Have you taken interest in Stefan Salvatore?"

"Oh god. Please, Silas, just wake me up."

He held up two fingers over his daughter's forehead then paused, tilting his head. "Refer to me properly and I will."

Sybil groaned. "Please send me back, father."

"That's better." He touched her forehead and gazed into her eyes, "Try not to forget that I'm your father."

"My father died a long time ago."

Rebekah was contemplating, Stefan was brooding, and Elena was glaring.

"It's only fair,"

"That's easy for you to say, Rebekah. That's your brother."

The Originals vampire groaned and rolled her eyes. "I'm calling Nik."

"Rebek-"

Stefan raised his hand. "She's right. Let her."

The phone rang once before Niklaus picked up. "Ah. Sister. Still marching around the forest with the gang, are we?"

"I'm only calling to inform you of Sybil."

Niklaus felt his face pale. He swallowed hard, parting his lips but no sound came out. "W-"

"Easy, Nik. She's not dead. But, Shane took her. Damon said Shane had discovered that immortals did have a weakness. Amaranth." She paused and glanced at Stefan, "We have to go but I will keep you updated."

Klaus lowered his voice, speaking with dangerous hushed words. "Find her." Then he hung up and threw his phone against the wall; He roared out of anger and frustration, his nostrils flaring with his heavy breaths, making look like a wild animal.

"Hey!" Caroline jumped and knotted her brows together angrily. "Please don't break Elena's house." She noticed the paleness in his face. "What's wrong... Oh. Sybil." Awkwardly she nodded and glanced away. "Yea, I heard."

Klaus lowered his head and glared up at the blonde. His voice was full of menace. "Your little friends better find her. Or you all will pay."

Sybil woke with a gasp and quickly surveyed her surroundings. Rocks were raining down around her. The was ground shook viciously and sent her rocking back and forth. Shane was nowhere to be found but she wasn't sure if that was a good thing.
