One week later
A corrosive, burning pain spread across Caroline’s face and with a shriek she woke up. She wanted to wipe the vervain of her face, but her hands were tight. She was sitting in some kind of room. There was a بستر and a desk. There were curtains and a carpet. آپ couldn’t say Klaus was no good host. But despite the nice room, Caroline would love to get out of it, after spending a week in it. A hand holding a napkin stretched to her face and cleaned it. “I’m sorry I had to do that” Caroline opened her eyes and looked at the girl. “Yeah, I bet you’re sorry” Caroline snapped. These robes were getting painful. At least they didn’t let her starve, she received her share of blood every day, though it wasn’t much. “Why won’t آپ let me go? What’s in there for you?” Caroline asked. Amber continued rubbing the vervain of Caroline’s face. “It’s not easy. Klaus frightens me. And I have nowhere to turn. I can’t go back home. My parents would never understand. They would hate me, despise me, send me away. But Stefan has been really helpful. He’s told me all about vampires, why we can walk in the sun, that we should be careful for werewolves. If I run away it would be very ungrateful” “Stefan’s the one that turned you” Caroline concluded. It was quite obvious. Amber nodded. “Well, if آپ can’t let me go, can آپ at least tell me what Klaus has in store for me?” Caroline asked. Amber shook her head and looked down. “I don’t know anything. I just do what they ask me to…And for your information, you’re not the only vampire here” Caroline’s eyes widened. “You mean there are others? There are other vampires being held prison? Where are they? Are they in other rooms? Where are we exactly?”
“I think that’s enough سوالات for today, Caroline” a calm voice said. Stefan had sneaked up on them and looked rather angry. “Amber, why don’t آپ go check on the others?” he کہا with a fierce glance at Caroline. “I already did, they are fine” Amber said, not realizing Stefan wanted her gone. “Then check again” he کہا expressing. “Okay, I can take a hint” Amber said, getting up. “Be a nice boy, Stefan, Klaus needs her to be in one piece” she کہا with a wink before taking off.
“Caroline, how are you?” Stefan asked. “Don’t pretend to care” Caroline کہا bitter. “I’m sorry I didn’t come sooner, I was busy “ Stefan said. “With what? Playing Jack the Ripper?” Caroline snapped. “I understand your hatred, but آپ have to understand that I have to keep my part of the bargain. I had to make offers for Damon’s life” Stefan said. “So, what, I have to praise آپ because you’ve دیا up your life so Damon get to live his? Wow, Stefan, applause, but whatever offers آپ have to make I refuse to be one of them” Caroline کہا angry. “You have no choice. Just like I have no choice” Stefan said. “Now I have to ask آپ something and I need آپ to be honest. Whatever the answer is I won’t take it out on you” Caroline averted her head, refusing to look at Stefan. “How’s Elena? Is she missing me? And Damon, is he still crushing on her? Is Elena falling for him?” he asked, sounding worried. Caroline’s face had a disdainful expression when she answered. “Seriously? You’ve become exactly what you’ve tried to avoid for 145 years, you’re on the loose as a ripper and your biggest concern is whether your girlfriend and your brother are hooking up with each other?” “Please, Caroline, I need to know” Stefan کہا and he lay a hand on her arm. “They’re not involved with each other” Caroline said. Stefan let out a relieved sigh. “But they are bonding. Seriously bonding”
Stefan averted his head, his eyes turned red and he growled. He gave up everything to save his brother. The least Damon could do is leave Elena alone. He understood they would try to save him and that involved seeing each other and talking, but it could go without falling for each other. If Damon had the slightest respect for Stefan, he wouldn’t try to seduce Elena. And if Elena loved him just a little bit, she wouldn’t give in to her feelings for Damon, if she had them.
“Amber! I need آپ to do something for me!”

“Amber! I need آپ to do something for me!”
Sam was waiting in line in a local snack bar. While he was waiting he watched the news, airing on a flat screen television, hanging on the ceiling.
“The thirty-five سال old Zoey Allen has escaped the local hospital of قلعہ Rock, Colorado. Allen was brought into the hospital after she got stuck in a fire. Allen is extremely dangerous and wanted for several murders. She might be armed”
The news reader gave a number people could call if they had any kind of information.
Sam walked out of the snack bar and conjured his phone. He quickly dialed Dean’s number.
“Hello?”
“Dean, Zoey escaped” Sam کہا fast.
“What? I thought she was dead” Dean کہا disbelieving.
“Apparently not” Sam said. “Lock your door. Don’t let anyone in”
“I wasn’t going to” Dean کہا and Sam heard him lock the door.

“Daphne? It’s time to let me go” Martin کہا soft.
Daphne lifted her head and stared at him with wet and bloodshot eyes. “How? I can’t”
“It’s time for me to اقدام on” Martin said. “I’ve been wandering around for too long. I’m done here. If I stay much longer, I could turn into a vengeful spirit”
Daphne shook her head. “I don’t believe that”
“You didn’t believe I would دکھائیں up in the first place, either” Martin pointed out.
Daphne pulled her shoulders. “How do I let آپ go? Aren’t آپ supposed to walk into the light یا something?”
Martin laughed. “Not exactly. آپ have to salt and burn my bones”
“So I need to go to the cemetery?” Daphne asked.
“No. That grave is empty” Martin کہا bitter.
“Then where are your bones?” Daphne asked nervous.
“You’re standing on them” Martin answered.
Daphne lifted her head and stared at him with wet and bloodshot eyes. “How? I can’t”

The waitress walked through the back door. She was taking a break. She felt two eyes on her and looked aside.
Cas was staring at her.
“Hi” she said. She walked to him. “You were acting strange earlier”
“I’m sorry” Cas mumbled. “You remind me of someone”
“Your girlfriend?” the waitress guessed.
Cas shook his head. “She wasn’t my girlfriend. She was my…”
“Sex buddy” the waitress helped. “I’m Lucy”
“I’m Cas” Cas said.
“Cas?” Lucy کہا intrigued. “That’s an uncommon name” She came closer to him and took his collar. She dragged him into one of the toilets and locked the door. She threw her arms around his neck and jumped in his arms. She kissed him and Cas forced her against the wall.
“Aaaahhh!” she exclaimed. She pushed Cas away and looked at him terrified.
“I’m sorry” Cas mumbled concerned.
“It’s okay” Lucy said, but Cas unlocked the door and ran away.
