“I know there’s a connection!” Liz exclaimed. “I know how to do my job. I don’t need some vampire to tell me that”
Caroline looked away, avoiding her mother’s stare.
“Caroline, I’m sorry” Liz said soft. “I didn’t mean…”
“Yes, you did!” Caroline said firm. She turned her back on her mother. “You know, I just wanted to help you. I just wanted some distraction”
“I know, honey” Liz said. She lay her hand on Caroline’s shoulder, but she pushed it away.
“I guess I should go back to Elena” she said bitter. “At least she appreciates my help” And that being said she raced away.
“Trouble, sheriff?” Stefan asked. He had heard mother and daughter argue and wanted to offer his help.
“Nothing I can’t handle without your help, Stefan” Liz said annoyed. Why did everyone assume she needed help from vampires each time things didn’t flow the way they should?
“What about him?” Stefan nodded at the corpse. Liz sighed. He was going to find out anyway. “Gabe Lindy”
“How do you tell?” Stefan asked. There was absolutely no way anyone could recognize him.
“I received an anonymous tip” Liz replied. “From a young woman. It’s not the first time she called. She seems to know a lot about missing corpses”
“And you have no idea who this woman is? She could be the killer” Stefan pointed out. Liz cast him an angry look. “But you have thought of that, of course…Would you mind if I take the body with me?”
“Why would I let you do that?” Liz asked confused.
“Because if you don’t I’m going to have to hurt you” Stefan explained sad. Liz grabbed for her gun, but Stefan was quicker. He pushed her arm aside and knocked her down. Then he grabbed Gabe’s corps and rushed away with it.

Present Day
“She suggested to stay with her so we could catch up, but I already promised Keith to stay with him. But we spent more time together. When Mayor Lockwood died I returned, but you know that. You basically stalked me with your calls to get you out of trouble. How many nights did you spend in jail?” Kelsey chuckled. Then she sighed. “If I had foreseen this I would’ve enjoyed those little moments”
Amber didn’t react.
“Amber, sweetie, did you fall asleep?” Kelsey asked with a squeezed voice, knowing better. She pulled her sister up, taking her face in her hands. “Come on, it’s night. You’re a vampire, you should be awake” she said with a trembling voice.
But Amber still didn’t show any sign of life.
“Amber?” Kelsey sobbed, tears rolling over her cheeks and she held her little sister tightly in her arms. The moon slowly rose…
