Caroline was starting to worry.

She hadn't heard from Buffy in hours, not a single text, not a screaming crying phone call about what an asshole her father was nor a simple message on her pink sparkly beeper!

At this rate, Caroline was one more unanswered call away from storming into Hank Summers's apartment and demanding to know what he had done to upset Buffy so much that she had gone radio silent.

"Still nothing from Buffy?" Elena asked curiously. 

It kind of hurt not being involved with Buffy's decision to go and see her father, especially given how supportive and helpful Buffy had been when she had been looking for Isobel.

But Elena knew she couldn't complain.

She and Buffy were finally starting to get a little less awkward after the ritual, but given everything that had happened between them, if she tried to get overly involved, Buffy would just push her away.


Caroline nodded as she grabbed her pink beeper out of her purse, a small concerned sigh escaping her lips.

No messages.

Nothing.

"I swear if Hank made her cry, I am eating him."


"Is it weird that Klaus's brother is in the middle of the town square?" Matt asked suddenly cutting off the girls' conversation.


Sure enough, as they turned both of them froze as they spotted Finn Mikaelson walking alongside Sage in the middle of the Town Square.


"That's Finn." Elena breathed "I thought he left town."

Instantly, Elena pulled her phone out of her pocket and dialed Stefan's number.

This might be their chance to finally end all of this.

"Hey, where are you?" She asked the instant he answered.

"I just got home. Why?"

Elena quickly walked away getting out of Finn and Sage's earshot, she couldn't risk them hearing and ruining everything "Klaus's brother Finn is in the town square. He's with I think, Buffy said her name was Sage."

"Sage." Stefan whispered in panic, this wasn't good "Listen to me, Elena do not do anything, ok? Sage is very old and very strong. You don't stand a chance against her. If you take one shot with your bow and miss your dead."

Elena groaned in annoyance.

"Then get Buffy and Damon and get down here."

The line went quiet for a moment causing dread to start bubbling in Elena's chest.

What the hell was going on? 

"What the hell happened to you?"
Stefan breathed in the background.


"Rebekah happened."

The Mikaelson manner.

A home, Buffy had seriously spent way too much time in since her resurrection. She had literally spent more time here than at the Gilbert house lately!

How the hell had that happened?

Shaking her head, Buffy quickly refocused on the whole reason she was here. To save Bonnie, and maybe...see that photo album once she made sure Bonnie was safe.

Maybe.

Her car door suddenly opened causing her to jump only to groan as she spotted the smug Klaus holding out his hand toward her as he held the door open for her.
