    Vivian sat at a table in a small cafe. A warm cup of coffee sat in front of her, she figured she'd try something different, and, being in a different place, she figured they question her if she ordered a whisky at 9 in the morning.  Her fingers traced the small detailing on the table, they paused when her eyes found her target, who was potentially oblivious to the eyes following her every move as she walked up to the counter and ordered an espresso. Vivian grabbed her own cup and took a sip, just as she did so, her company finally joined her.

"Your aunts one hot mess." Damon said, as he grabbed an abandoned chair at the next table. Stefan did the same and sat beside her, effortlessly resting his arm against her shoulder. She ignored the gesture, even though she found it cute. Inwardly, she rolled her eyes at herself, when did she become such a gushing, blushing, romantic? Had she always been this way?

"What do you mean?" Vivian cleared her throat and asked, watching with amusement as Stefan sent Damon a smug look.

"We checked out her place. I don't think she's actually living there." Damon explained.

"What's the next part of the plan?" Stefan asked. Vivian watched as her aunt Penny walked out of the cafe with her coffee. Quickly, without giving Stefan her explanation, she stood up from her table and together, the three walked out of the restaurant and followed the woman down the street. Penny walked passed a group of people standing waiting at the cross walk, she made a right, and Vivian did the same, following until they made a stop in an alley way, Aunt Penny stood still.

"I thought we were leaving each other alone?" She said, turning to face Vivian, who stood in between her guards. Vivian smiled, however kindness wasn't the reason for it.

"I thought you were a powerful witch?"

"I—"

"Maybe next time, when doing a spell, make sure it's permanent, otherwise, don't attempt it at all." Vivian said, spearing towards her aunt, Penny had not chance at a reaction as Vivian reached and grabbed her head, without hesitation, she snapped it, twisting it right off her shoulders and dropping it to the ground. With a satisfied sigh, she turned to Stefan and Damon, who looked a little surprised at her.
Without saying anything more, she grabbed a lighter from her pocket and flicked it towards the body. The three are quick to disappear back to their car back at the cafe.

"So that was dramatic." Damon deadpanned, as he leant up against the brick wall. Vivian let out an annoyed groan of frustration, turning around, and clenched her fist and slammed it straight into it, causing it to break into a few pieces. Stefan and Damon share a look.

"What a bitch." She said, as she started pacing. Her anger going haywire. She was fuming .

"Who?"

"You think this is funny?" Vivian shot a look at Damon.

"No, not at all."

"What is this shit, huh? All this, chasing, sacrificing, and—"

"And?" Stefan inquired

"And, this everlasting bullshit that we're stuck dealing with. The being hero's, being villains, and to top it off, The bullshit that is just one pig headed dick head with control issues." Vivian let out a breath of relief when she finished her little Rand she didn't know she even had in her. Perhaps she's been holding it in for too long and finally, thanks to her aunt , her lid popped off. They didn't need this right now. They had stuff to worry about. Things to do to prevent people from dying. Again, and again, and again. Secretly, she wonders if it'll ever stop. She wonders if there'll be a time where they can just be together, be free, be themselves. Little did she know that was asking for far too much.

"Look, we're doing this, to try and stop things from going too far, farther than they already have." Stefan said, as he finally grabbed a hold of Vivian to stop her from moving. He understood her lash out. Since the beginning, it's been non stop problem after problem. Situation after situation. When was it going to end? He hoped soon. How ever long soon turned out to be.

"This is all dandy and swell, but do we have to put on this little charade while there's a body laying down in front of us?" Damon says, gesturing to her aunt's shriveled up body. Looking at it just made Vivian's anger boil even more.

"Right. Let's get out of here. Head back home."

"Yeah, home. I wonder what kind of bullshit awaits us there." Vivian said, shaking her head, as she followed Stefan and Damon out of the alley way and into the street. At least one of their problems were solved.
