Claire Forbes had everything a girl in a small town like Mystic Falls could want. A boyfriend, popularity, beauty and the best of friends. Everyone always knew they were going to have a good time when the party girl of Mystic Falls shows up.
Howeve...
*So, Elena and Damon are dead... In case you didn't notice, those two are actually big parts of The Vampire Diaries series. So, the rest of the book will have some events that were in the show but mainly my own. It will also follow my timeline! The Originals will be a separate book! Also, the Originals will not take place at the same time. It'll take place a few years later. It'll still mainly be the same events but later on not toward the end of The Vampire Diaries season 4 and so on. Does this make sense? Let me know if it doesn't... Love you all!!*

The town mourned the loss of Elena Gilbert and Damon Salvatore. They continued to mourn for Carol Lockwood. Not only were they mourning but they were scared. Three people dead within weeks of each other. They feared that the deaths would begin again, just like in 2009.
Rudy struggled to find the murderer. He knew Claire was involved, he knew the Mikaelson's were involved but he couldn't prove it. Even if he could, he had no idea how he would prevent more death's from happening.
He was already doing everything in his power to protect the town. He had vervain in the water supply and was trying to find hunters to protect the town but it was hard to find people who would go against the Originals. Nobody knew if there was any White Oak left to kill them and the dagger's to subdue them were deep within the mansion where only a select few could find them.
Rudy also knew that Elizabeth Forbes was involved somehow. It was obvious, her daughter was the center of everything happening and being her mother, Liz had to know something. However, despite trying to get information out of her, Liz claimed ignorance.
Liz knew why Damon's dead. She knew that he went after Claire and the Mikaelson's killed him. It was a wake-up call for her. She realized just how protective the Mikaelson's are. While it comforted her that her daughter is safe with them, it also made her nervous. If Rudy went after Claire for her crimes, if anybody went after Claire, she knew the Mikaelson's would bathe the town in blood and they would be powerless to stop them.
So, Liz got rid of any evidence that might point to Claire or the Mikaelson's. She steered Rudy and everyone away from them, or tried too at least.
It took about a month for things to go back to normal. Rudy wasn't interim mayor anymore, he'd been given the job. Reluctantly, Rudy made peace with the Mikaelson's like Carol had tried to do. It was a fragile peace but peace nonetheless. Though none of them were sure if he had completely given up trying to get rid of them or not, although it's been quiet for months.
Stefan had ran off, nothing was keeping him here anymore. He couldn't stay, not after everything that's happened. Not only did he lose Elena, who he cared very deeply for, but his brother, who he loved with all his heart. Klaus thinks he might have turned his humanity off. There were rumors in the supernatural community that suggested that a ripper was tearing through the country.
Even after everything that's happened, Klaus still cares for Stefan. He still holds onto the friendship they had in the twenties. Even though he refused to go search for him himself, not wanting to leave Claire for an extended amount of time, he has his resources looking for him.
