MYSTIC FALLS - PRESENT DAY
The door to the Salvatore boarding house burst open violently causing the walls to shake slightly and the two vampires that resided within come to a defensive stance, ready to take on whichever of their many enemies was trying to kill them.
Damon grabbed 2 stakes, throwing one to his brother as he came down the stairs quietly. Their movements were as light as thieves as they made their way to living room where a figure that looked far too familiar for their liking stood with a tumbler of scotch in his hand.
"You and I both know those won't kill me," the man who was a perfect copy of Stefan's physical form spoke. "I just want to talk."
"So talk," Damon gripped the stake tighter in his hand, it was his way of feeling a little safer with an immortal psychopath standing a few feet away from him.
"Well, you see, a very long time ago I was in love with this woman – "
"Amara, yeah, we've heard this story a hundred times," Stefan rolled his eyes, leaning against the doorframe with his usual brooding expression.
"No, before Amara. Her name was Athena and she's been stuck in a deep slumber for over 2000 years. Kind of like Sleeping Beauty, except I am both Maleficent and Prince Charming."
"So wake her up, I don't see why you've come to us," the older Salvatore furrowed his brow.
"Because to wake her up I need to undo the spell, and to do that I need to find the object I used to bind the spell," Silas began to explain. "I did a locator spell and it's somewhere in this house. You're going to help me find it."
"If we do this, if we help you wake this girl up, do you promise to stay out of our lives for good?" Damon questioned, finally putting the stake down.
"Yes."
The Salvatore brother's shared a look, a silent conversation playing out between them.
"Alright then," Damon agreed, his little brother glaring at him. "What are we looking for?"
