"What happened here," Niklaus descends the basement stairs seeing the door lying in the middle of the room.

"A witch broke in and freed the Alpha," Elias didn't feel like talking looking at his unconscious friend lying on the ground. Even though his neck was broken he could hear everything he had heard Peter mention to the nurse that he didn't think he was normal. He wasn't sure what it would take to kill him but the other three were as good as dead in front of that witch and Peter.

"A powerful one, why not just kill the Alpha?" Niklaus knelt down examining the door.

"Gaining allies dear uncle, once Derek kills the Alpha he'll join my pack. Never would have thought the alpha would be his uncle though."

"Well looks like you need to get to work, good luck catching the big bad wolf," Niklaus smirked as he raised his hands performing a roar, turning around he began to head back upstairs.

"Uncle Klaus I could use I could use some help, some of your sage-like advice."

Niklaus paused his steps not turning around, "Tomorrow morning you and the Stilinski boy will meet me in the woods. Just remember this dear nephew I won't always be here to help you don't become dependant on my help sometimes you have to take matters into your own hands." Niklaus continued going upstairs stopping on the last step he looked into the eyes of a frozen Kate Argent.

"What the basement, not a good enough space to keep me captive," Kate's facial expression seemed calm but her eyes betrayed her.

"Seems my Nephew has a couple of guests over, we're going to a much darker place, one befitting of your nature." Niklaus gripped Kate's arm dragging her out of the house.

Elias waited in the basement for his friends to wake up first was Derek followed by Stiles and finally, Scott, who seemed more interested in calling Allison then making sure he himself was alright.

"Derek, you were surprised when you saw your uncle here why?" Elias immediately asked seeing that everyone was awake.

"My uncle has been in the long term facility at the Hospital since the Hale fire, he's been in an unresponsive state since I came back. I visited him his face was scarred by fire, he seemed lifeless."

"Guess that was the handiwork of that witch," Elias stated.

"His nurse," Stiles spoke up causing everyone to focus on him. "I jokingly asked him if he expected a badass to break down the door and rescue him; he replied 'No just my Nurse,' she was his nurse."

"That means we can track her down Scott I need you to call your mom and ask about a nurse named Jennifer."

"I'm not involving my mom in this," Scott stood up in a flash, "They could have killed us, my mom won't stand a chance if she's involved she stays as far away from this as possible."

"Fine I'll go there myself, they won't even know I was there," Elias couldn't blame Scott for wanting to keep him mom safe.

"Speaking of parents being involved, I think my Dad knows about werewolves, he had this video on his computer; The Alpha, Peter attacked the convenience store and his form was caught on camera, right now my dad's the only one who's seen it."

"Do you think he'll tell anyone?" Derek spoke up worried.

"No, he's not even sure if what he saw was real he won't risk it until he's sure he has evidence, concrete evidence. I'm more worried he'll end up putting himself in danger, he doesn't know what werewolves are capable of."

"I could compel him It'll make him forget everything about the supernatural world," Elias suggested.

"Not happening, I'll talk to him though I could use your help if he still doesn't believe me even after I show him."

Elias nodded "From now on everyone must have a cell phone on them at all times. Peter isn't gonna let this go he'll come back and he'll target one of you. We need to be careful from now on."

Getting nods from everyone Elias sighed this week had been a long one, "You guys head out I'm going to get some sleep." As they left he dropped to his knees cradling his head, his jawline tensed as he fought the instinct to scream. Forcing himself to change back into a human was only half the battle for the rest of the night he fought against the instinct to turn back.

Argent home

Allison stood in front of her father as he paced back in forth beginning to speak before pacing again.

"Chris she can handle it just tell her or I will," Victoria Argent sat on a stool next to Allison.

"The pendant your aunt gave you, did you do any research on it?"

Allison shook her head no causing Chris to sigh.

"That pendant holds the Argent family crest, in the 18th Century, a beast plagued the villages of France." Pulling out his phone Chris quickly showed Allison a painting of the beast.

"Looks like a wolf," Allison said uninterested.

"This would all be so much easier if I could just show you in person," Chris shook his head.

"Allison go ahead and head off to bed, I need to talk to your father." Allison nodded.

"What are you thinking?"

"I'm going to capture one of them, it's the only way," Chris frowned seeing his wife's determined expression.

"We can't not when they're being protected by an original."

"They have one of ours, it's only right we take on of theirs," Victoria left no room for discussion.

"We don't know that? Kate could have just left."

"Without saying goodbye to Allison? You said it yourself Kate was planning to kill an original if you could figure it out I'm sure he could as well. We have to do something before it's too late and we find her body drained of its blood."

"Fine but we don't tell Allison we'll act like the earlier conversation never happened. We're going after an Original she can't be involved, plus she's friends with Elias if things go bad I hope they at least let her live."

Getting a nod from Victoria Chris's shoulders relaxed as he let out a deep breath.

They both failed to realize Allison sitting on the Stairs listening to their every word with deep confusion written all over her face.
