Not even an hour later Stefan and the others met up with Damon and they decided it would be best if they went on foot. Using their vampire speed it didn't take them long to get within a mile of Tyler's little camp. The five vampires carefully and quietly moved closer, knowing they needed to take out the three hybrids keeping watch. Elijah, Stefan and Damon used their vampire speed to come up behind them and ripped out their hearts simultaneously before the three could call out for help.
Then they moved back to the shadows and waited for Tyler to appear, Nik wanted to drain him dry while Kol just wanted to rip his head off and be done with it. They all turned their heads towards the left at the sound of something moving around making a lot of noise. All of them looked at each other and waited, looking back up towards the cave entrance. Tyler and two hybrids appeared taking in the three dead hybrids laying on the ground. Then they heard noise and the the two hybrids headed in that direction as did Kol and Elijah while Tyler was looking around nervously waiting for their return.
"Scott...Brad did you find anything?" Tyler called out into the darkness.
"No, only you" Nik said from behind him.
"I'm not afraid of you Klaus" Tyler said with bravado.
"You should be, as our brother didn't come alone...not sure if this belongs to your mate Scott or what was his name? Brett...Brad" Kol said holding a hybrid heart in his hand as he walked up to Tyler with Elijah right behind him, dropping the hybrid heart at Tylers feet.
"How did you find me?" he asked.
"A little birdy told us, that's all you need to know" Nik said calmly.
"How many more of you are there out here beside the five we killed?" Elijah said with cold eyes.
"We're all over out here" Tyler said swallowing hard knowing the others were to far away to help him.
"Hmmm...we've been out here for a few hours and it's been really fairly quiet...I think they are out here but not close enough to be of any real use to you right now" Nik said coldly.
"To think if you had just left the girls out of this, none of this would be taking place right now. Shame really because they thought you were their friend and accepted what you were...betrayal hurts the worst when it comes from family or friends" Elijah said with his usual calmness that was more frightening than Kol being out of control.
Damon and Stefan continued to watch from the darkness knowing they wouldn't kill Tyler right away if at all, but they were going to torture him.
Elena and Caroline awaited their return, dreading what was in store for Tyler. Freya and Rebekah knew that both feared for their friend yet felt betrayal at the length he went just to make Nik angry, again. They knew their brother gave more than his fair share of chances to others, until they crossed him and made it personal.
"Elena you're going wear a hole in the floor from all your pacing, not to mention you're making me tired just watching you" Rebekah said to her.
"Sorry, I'm just worried" Elena said as she sat down on the couch next to Caroline.
"I'm sure they're fine, they know to be cautious" Freya said reassuringly.
"Freya's right Elena, they're probably on their way back" Caroline said, trying to convince herself and to stop thinking about what they might be doing to Tyler.
"It's late and you two have school tomorrow, you should try to get some rest" Freya said.
"Oh no Freya had turned motherly on us" Rebekah said with a smile to lighten the mood in the room.
"Yeah, I got a ton of homework I need to get done first" Caroline said as she stood up then pullling Elena up to head upstairs.
"Good night you two" Elena said with a yawn.
"Good night" Freya and Rebekah said at the same time.
Two hours later the SUV pulled up, Freya and Rebekah stood in entryway waiting and wondering what the fate of the young hybrid was. Elena and Caroline had heard them come home and waited at the top of the stairs to learn what his fate was to be if they hadn't killed him.
