"Hey! Can we talk?" Caroline told Tori who was reading a book on her bed

"Yeah, what's up?" Tori said as she put the book down gesturing for her sister to sit on her bed.

"So, how have you been doing?" Caroline asked

"Uhm... I am good? What do you want?" Tori asked seeing Caroline's expression

"Okay, Stefan called and told me about what happened when you almost died. Are you having nightmares?" Caroline asked cutting to the chase

"What? No," Tori told her sister

"You're a terrible liar. Look, Tor you and I share everything, the good, the bad, the ugly. I can see that something changed, you lost that light in your eyes, I mean you're good at pretending but everyone can see it. Mom is planning to send you to therapy. Please talk to me,"

Tori looked at her sister "Care, I am Fine!"

"Seriously! When did you start lying, you have never hidden anything from me and now.."

"Actually I hid I was a witch from you for a long time Care," Tori told her sister

"Wow! Really? I thought you and I had no secrets. What happened to you on the other side Tori?" Caroline pushed

"Nothing happened, Care! So drop it,"Tori argued back

"No, something did, you have been acting weird and not yourself since Luke's death and...,"Caroline yelled but Tori cut her off

"STOP!" Tori yelled

"Is it Luke? Did you see him on the other side? Is that what this is? Tori you have to speak to someone about this please. What happened on the other side?" Caroline Pushed

"You want to know Care, fine. I was tortured by witches that wanted me to kill myself. I was shown the amount of destruction I would bring to humanity. I was stabbed multiple times , this cast here that you see... it wasn't because of Katherine stabbing me or hurting me. My wrist was broken because I was tied up by vines that got so tight that it snapped my wrist. I watched as mom died, I watched Luke blame me for his death..... I can't sleep because every time I try to I see Luke. I failed him and frankly if I am an abomination then I should not exist, I was meant to die, and maybe it should have been like that. You wanted the truth, here it is," Tori yelled at Caroline who was horrified

"Tori..." Caroline said before hugging her sister tight, as soon as Caroline hugged her, Tori felt herself fall apart and she cried. Caroline held her sister as she let out her emotions and cried.

Back at the mansion, Elijah's body was still grey and impaled but slowly he woke up. As his face gained back it's color he ripped the stake that the witch had stabbed him. He was angry and annoyed having lost to a small teenage witch and having lost the doppelgänger. He looked at his ruined suit with an annoyed expression before checking his pocket for his phone. Looking at the time he was surprised that he had taken so long to wake up. It was 6:00 am, usually he would have regained consciousness in an hour or two but it had taken him almost 21 hours. He looked at his hands seeing the dry blood and reached out to grab his handkerchief only to find it missing. He looked around and the cloth in the corner of the room stained red. He grabbed the cloth and sniffed it, the blood, though dry smelt different from any human or witch. 'Looks like the little witch hurt herself bad,' he thought to himself. Elijah stood up and began dialing a number on his phone.

"It's me, I need you to meet me at Mystic falls. I will send you the address. Meet me in two hours," Elijah said before hanging up. He then rushed out the mansion to his car and drove to the town that he had once called home.
