Vampire Heart

Just another day in Mystic Falls

Tyler Lockwood walked into his parent's mansion and the first thing he saw was his mother pouring herself a large scotch. Nothing was different, he knew it. He had no illusions that his parents would work through their marital problems.

He greeted his mother.

"Tyler?!...You should have called-"-she said holding her arms out to give him a hug.

"Would it make any difference?"-Tyler said hugging his mother.

"I guess not"- she said and as he moved out of the hug she then said worried'" Please, don't argue with him!". She was referring to his father.

"Mom, I have only come to see you and get a few if my things.I will be crashing at Matt's"-Tyler said.

She looked at her son with teary eyes, but did't say a thing.  She gave him a peck on the cheek and then walked away taking a sip of her drink.

Tyler's heart chocked. He stood for a moment in the lavish living room. All that luxury and money didn't mean a thing to him. He then sighed and went up to his room.

In the woods, Liz and Sophie put John and Marcel in one of the cells in the caves, shackling them, so they wouldn't be able to escape.

Sophie sealed the cells with magic. The two women then left the place.

"When they come round I will investigate them."- Sophie said- "for now we will leave them."

"You said that John was inquiring about Elena?! He didn't know?"- Liz asked.

"He knew something, but not all of it. Greyson made sure he didn't."- Sophie said.

"Greyson assured me that he never told anyone who Elena really was!"- Liz said.

"He stumbled upon a book talking about Katerina Petrova. But then Elena was eleven, it's much later that he heard about the doppelganger story, but he didn't know all of it... we still don't know all of it. Apparently it is rumored that she has made sure that everything about her vanishes."

"But isn't she the one whose heart is necessary for breaking the curse of the Old vampire?!"- Liz asked.

"Yes. And last night we gave it to the Old vampire- his brother!!"- Sophie said.

"And yet that is not enough as it seems?!"- Liz said.

"No. There is so much more -and we don't know the whole story. Elijah has left, but his faithful vampire-girl is still hanging around. There is more! And I think last night was only the beginning of madness!"

"I will send Caroline to New York, and maybe Elena and Bonnie should go too!?"- Liz said.

"They are not safe wherever they go. I need to dig to find out what it is all about, so I can be ready to face it all when the push comes to shove!"- Sophie said.

"I don't like this one bit!"- Liz said.

"You are in this forever, but when you have a kid it is tough, right?!"- Sophie said.

Liz nodded.

She left Sophie at the Gilbert's house and went home. Sophie took her phone and dialed a number.

At Bonnie's,  Caroline was reeling having been told she was a werewolf.

"You got this all wrong... and all that sniffing of people is gross, did someone told you that,even though it's from a distance!"- Caroline spat at the vampire.

"I apologize, it wasn't very tactful of me, but- ahm...according to my research you come from a royal bloodline of werewolves from your mother's side."- Rose said.
