Clay takes Jeremy out the front door to get as far away from you

Jeremy: It stopped

Clay looks at him then stops moving. Jeremy sits on the steps then starts rubbing his ears

Jeremy: Well that sucks

Clay: Are you okay?

Jeremy: My ears are ringing so that's something else to worry about now. We didn't think of that

Clay: Think of what?

Jeremy: The room echoes so when she yells

Clay: Oh... yeah forgot about that

Jeremy: What does it mean? Is it some kind of defense mechanism?

Clay: Ask her

Jeremy: Ugh I really don't want to talk to her and hear her damn smart ass remarks

Clay rolls his eyes just thinking about it

Jeremy: I'll ask tomorrow. I think we all deserve to just relax and sleep since we've all got beaten the hell out of today

Clay: Easy for you to say. I punched Elena

Jeremy looks at him

Jeremy: It was an accident

Clay: Still. I hit...

He loses his balance as Jeremy quickly grabs him before he falls

Jeremy: Its okay I got you. See what I was talking about? You're badly injured to

Clay: I'm... fine

Jeremy: No you're not. Come on

Jeremy takes him back inside the house then upstairs into the infirmary where he lies him down on the bed, next to Elena's

Jeremy: You need to rest Clay. That mutt did some damage to you

Clay: I want to...

Jeremy: Stop talking. I'm going to give you something to help you sleep okay?

He let's out a frustrated sigh

Clay: Okay

He walks away. Clay looks over at Elena whose still unconscious

Clay: I'm sorry darlin

Meanwhile downstairs...

You start surveying the cell, impressed by how much room there was from the last one

You: Nice, very nice

You walk closer to the cell door but get pulled back a little bit by the collar around your neck. You notice there's two. A small and big one

You: Umm... why do I have two collars on?

Nick: For when you turn

You look up at them then start laughing hysterically

You: Oh that's a good one. I haven't had a good laugh like this in years

Logan: And what's so funny?

You: Do you really think this will hold me back?

They both fold their arms. You smirk

You: It won't

Peter: What makes you so sure?

You: Oh you pups just don't know what I've been through. How many chains I broke over the years. So many different ones. It's basically like breaking a pencil
