Damon knocks on the door and when Elena opens and he pushes in. "You're ignoring me" He declared the obvious.

"The 6 missed phone calls? Sorry. My phone is dead" Elena replies sarcastically. "Is stefan here?" I ask her. "No. Why? Something wrong?"

"He went out to the woods and didn't come back" I explain.

Damon looks down at his phone "we couldn't get him on his phone so we figured he was with you" Damon says. Elena dials Stefan's number and puts her phone to her ear "it's going straight to voicemail, where could he be?"

"You're not going to like what I'm thinking" Damon says . I already don't.

Me and Elena sit in the car looking out the window, it's raining heavily but I can see the figure of Damon running back to us. I nudge Elena with a finger and then get out of the car, running to Damon. "What happened? Where is he?" Elena yells.

"They have him, I couldn't get in" Damon explains. "Why not?" I ask. "Because the woman who owns the house is compelled to not let me in"

"I can get in" Elena states and makes a move but Damon holds her back. "You're not going in there"

"I'm going!"

"You're not going in there"

"Why are they doing this what do they want with him?" I ask frantically.

"Revenge they want revenge" Damon explains. Elena exhales " we gotta do something"

"I know" Damon says looking over his shoulder. "we can't let them hurt him we Gotta get him out of there" Elena exclaims with worry.

"Elena I know" Damon says grabbing either side of her face. "But I don't know how to get him out" He says letting her go. I perk my head up with an idea.

"I think I know who can help us"

My brilliant idea was asking Mr.Saltzman for help. I mean why not, he's a vampire hunter, I guess.

Me and Elena step out of the corner when we hear Damon move. Alaric stands a few paces from us.

"Mr.Saltzman, we need your help"

"Stefans in the house. Damon's a vampire but he can't get in. We need you. I would go but-" Elenas explanation is cut short by Damon.

"You're life is valuable" He says and then looks at Alaric. "Yours on the other hand" You hit him the ribs for good measures.

"Stefan and Ariel told me about your ring"

"What about it?" Alaric asks.

"Let me recap-you tried to kill me, I defended myself, you died. According to my brother and little mermaid here your ring brought you back to life. Am I leaving anything out?" Damon asks. I roll my eyes at the nickname.

"Yeah, the part where I try to kill you again only this time I don't miss" Alaric threatens, getting up from his desk. Me and Elena move to stand in front of him.

"Mr.saltzman, please, it's Stefan" We plead. He sighs, "Sorry girls, not my problem"
Damon sighs from behind, "That's a shame, cause the woman in charge of the crowd can help you find your wife" I frown at his words and look at him.

"Your lying"

"Am I? Why don't you ask her for yourself? Coward" Damon spits at his face. "Let's go girls" Damon calls to us, already heading to the door.

"All right! Wait" Alaric calls out making us spin.

"I'll go"

Alaric pulls out a bunch of weapons he has for vampires and lays them across his desk. "Teacher by day, vampire hunter by night" Damon jokes. "I have you to thank for that" Alaric comments.

"What are these?" I ask tracing a needle. "Those are tranquilizer darts, filled with vervain" He explains.

"Just get me in. I'll get Stefan out" Damon says. "That's your plan? You're just gonna take them all on yourself?" Elena criticizes.

"Well I'll be a little more stealthier than that, hopefully" Damon says. I grab one of the wooden stakes and Elena grabs a needle.

"Whoa what are you two doing?" Alaric asks. "We're coming with you" I declare and Damon shakes his head.

"No, no, no, no, no way"

"You need us, I'll get get in, you all can distract them and then I'll get Stefan out" Elena argues.

"You'll get yourselfs killed. You're not going in there" Damon says and the looks at Alaric. "So when you get me in get out as quick as you can. I know how to sneak around where they can't hear me, you'll basically just be in the way" Damon comments.

"Damon, now is not the time to be the Lone Ranger" Elena argues, "Fine Elena, you can man the getaway car, you're not going in the house, Ariel you'll be with Alaric"

Elena scoff, I couldn't tell if she was offended or mad, probably both. "You can't stop me. It's Stefan we're talking about here, you don't understand"

"Oh I understand, I understand. He's the reason you live, his love lifts you up where you belong, I get it" Damon mocks. "Can you just not joke around for 2 seconds?" Elena scolds

"I can't protect you, Elena. I don't know how many vampires there are in there" Damon snaps his finger

"That's how long it takes you to get your head ripped off. I have to be able to get in and get out, I can't be distracted with your safety. Or this will end up a blood bath that none of us will walk way from.. including Stefan, I know, I get it" Damon says finishing his speech.

Alaric and I cough to draw their attention. "If we're gonna go. Let's go"
