70... The Five

Allyson and the kids are handing out with Stefan for a little while. Stefan and the girls are examine the marking on the wording the stake, the hunter's mark. Damon enters the room with some boxes on his shoulder, and the tension rises. He realizes he didn't save his wife from the explosion and the Original hybrid did, and that equals tension. Damon is well aware his wife is upset. But he also knows they've sort of been distant since he slept with her aunt before he knew she was Allyson's aunt, Rebekah.

"So, what is all this?" Stefan asks as Henrik climbs into his lap, the toddler doesn't even try touching the sharping object in Stefan's hand.

"Some personal items I snakes from the vampire hunter's RV," Damon states. "May he read in peace. I'm searching for a supernatural handbook."

"And you know for a fact that he was supernatural?" Jenna asks her father.

"Definitely wasn't natural," Damon replies. "The guy magically appeared just because someone blows up the Founders Council. He's covered in tattoos that only Jeremy Gilbert, of all people in the world, seems to be able to see. Klaus mentioned something about him being one of The Five. Then he kamikazes himself with explosives. Does that sound natural to any of you who understand?"

"What's the Five?" Miranda asks curiously.

"That's what I'm hoping to find in the first chapter of the handbook," Damon replies to his daughter and his phone rings. "Liz Forbes, my favorite sheriff..." Damon starts to looks worried. "What? That's.... Concerning. Keep me posted." And he hangs up.

"What?" Stefan questions.

"They didn't find any remains at the explosion site," Damon says to Stefan and his wife.

"So, Conner's still out there," Allyson says with a sigh as Henrik was les up to his dad.

"Can you and Allyson and the twins do this?" Damon asks. "Isaac and I have to take Elena to college."

"I'm sorry, you have to do what, exactly?" Stefan asks.

"I'm teaching her how to feed, like Lexi taught me," Isaac says as he comes down in some nice jeans and a great button down shirt with a leather jacket and converse. "She needs to learn snatch, way, erase now more than ever."

"You know Lexi?" Stefan asks.

"Who do you think changed me?" Isaac replies with a shrug as he lifts up Henrik. "Hi, Henrik. Uncle Isaac is gonna be fine for a little bit. Be good for Clarissa."

"He always is," Clarissa says as she enters the house.

"There's my second favorite redhead," Isaac greets her as Henrik wiggles out of his grip, and he hugs Allyson with one arm. "Be good today, have fun."

"Looks like I'll have to beef up the hybrid security detail," Klaus says. "Girls!"

Jenna and Miranda run up to Klaus, and he hugs them. They go to their art table Klaus had set up and he smiles at Allyson as Stefan exits the shadows.

"I was gonna take him, but I figured you went through such trouble to trust him up in your red room of pain."

"It's from the Inquisition," Klaus claims. "I thought it was a nice touch.
