We stood on the Lockwood mansion's doorstep and I glance at Elijah curiously "Is this really important, elijah?" I questioned impatiently

"You'll see, have a bit patience with me, please" he answered and rang the door bell

Seconds later, Carol Lockwood opened the door delighted as she saw Elijah beside me and also seemed to be heading out somewhere

"Elijah?... and—I remember you, you were here with Damon during John Gilbert's terrible accident. Uh sorry what are you guys doing here? what happened?" She questioned as she saw Elijah's crispy burnt suit

"I had a bit of an incident, Carol—I was hoping you might help me out" He answered slightly embarrassed

"Oh—I'm sorry, I was on my way to a meeting-" she stopped once Elijah locked eyes with her, he took a step closer towards her

"I won't take but a minute of your time." He said compelling her, she paused for a moment and grew a generous smile "of course! Anything you need."

That was uncomfortable in a way but I mean I'm not any better of a person but when I watched Elijah compel her, it almost gave me a chill. We walked into her house politely behind her, he turned facing her directly

"Well I might need a change of clothing first..." Elijah uttered with a polite smile

She tried thinking of a solution as she walked around "yeah I think I have a few spare suits in a box I haven't boxed up yet..."

"Wonderful thank you." He nods and she headed upstairs to look for a suit to fit Elijah

I hummed taking a few glances around the very enormous Lockwood mansion, I looked around reminiscing back when the actual first time I came into mystic falls...."I thought everybody in mystic falls was overflowing with vervain, especially the mayors wife's after all?"

He glances over at me "I had gotten her off it before the Salvatore brothers killed me. twice."

"I rather not hear more about it....they put you to temporary sleep not your deathbed." I snickered softly "we both know taking down an original nothing easy of the sort....a pain in the ass."

"Nice charisma Alexandra, If you excuse me I'll be right back." He responded and quietly left

I should take this time to give Stefan a call at least, my phone has been buzzing with messages it's been irritating.....He picked up quick"how's everything going? Elijah being sketchy or anything?"

"Uh no, he's getting a new suit since you guys thought to barbecue him to a burnt crisp and failed not to mention. How is Damon?"  I asked

"He's acting like petty child on an eight scale. Though he is checking out Klaus-ricks place to see what has happened to Katherine and if there's a way to save Elena."  he said

"At least he's doing something. It's because of the recents trouble is my guess right?  Though are you up to anything?" 

"Yes you guessed right. I'm headed to see Jenna she called Elena over, there might be a problem with Klaus acting as Rick trying to get Jenna over for lunch I have to make sure nothing happens?" He sighs
