LOST - Lorenzo St. John (Enzo)

•NINETEEN•

"Hello again." Enzo grinned, as Tripp opened his eyes. "That was quite a mess you made at the border last night. Good thing Matt here was in the neighbourhood to give you a ride home."

Matt, Stefan, Enzo and I were stood in the small room where Tripp was keeping Enzo beforehand.

"You brought me here?" Tripp questioned Matt, in disbelief.

"You went after my friends." Matt was quick to defend himself. However, I could see the guilt all over his face.

"Your friends who kill people!" Tripp shook his head as he glared at the vampires in the room.

"Come on Enzo, ask him what you wanna know so we can get this over with." Stefan practically demanded.

Enzo walked around the chair Tripp was sat in, he walked up behind him and placed his hands on his neck. "Stefan and Ellie seem to be in favour of snapping your neck and being rid off you. While I, in a surprising roll-reverse opted for the 'get all the information before we kill him' method."

"Don't be a dick." Matt glared, stepping forward. "You know you can dry the vervain out of him, compel him to forget and he'll never set foot back in Mystic Falls again."

"You don't really think that's an option, do you?" I questioned Matt, narrowing my eyes at his stupidity.

"While Tripp tortured me for the names of your friends, I had front-row seats to quite a few urgent phone calls and visits from mysterious right-hand men." Enzo spoke as he walked closer to Matt, clearly trying to intimidate him. "Many of whom were wearing uniforms not dissimilar from the one you've been traipsing around in. I would like to know what they are up to while he is here with us."

We all looked to Tripp waiting for an explanation but he stayed silent.

I quickly walked forward, grabbing his hand and twisting it backwards, causing him to let out a cry of pain.

"They're tracking vampire!" Tripp told us. "Vampires like your friend, Caroline Forbes!"

***

I answered my phone to Caroline as I walked outside.

"Please tell me that Tripp is still alive." Caroline begged from the other end of the phone.

"Tripp is still alive." I quickly told her. "Surprisingly torture resistant, but alive."

"Okay, you can't kill him. One of his guys took my mom. So just keep your hands off of him so I can get her back, okay?"

I rolled my eyes in frustration even though she couldn't see me.

"Ellie, please?"

"Fine."

I made my way back inside to Enzo, Matt and Tripp who was now cover in blood.

"Update! Tripp's henchmen took the sheriff in Mystic Falls." I told them as I glared toward Tripp.

"What?" Matt questioned.

"It's a contingency plan, incase anything happened to me!" Tripp told us.

I bent down so I was eye-level with Tripp before speaking. "When we get the sheriff back, I am going to jam my fist into your chest and rip your heart out."

"What did you guys do to him?" Caroline immediately questioned as her and Stefan walked through the door.

"He's fine, it's just a little blood loss." I told Caroline as I rolled my eyes. "I think he may have an iron deficiency problem."

"Knock it off." Stefan Demanded, causing me to glare. "Her mothers life is on the line."
