William, Blake, Aiden, and Damon are all sitting in the parlor / living room, Aiden is looking out the window. Blake and William are sitting on the same loveseat as the night before, and Damon is sitting in a chair. Stefan walks in, and he sees that they're is a full house, William has been staying there with Blake, Aiden and Damon allowed it.
"So, any idea where you'll go?" Stefan asks his the brunette brother.
"I don't know," Aiden replies. "London, maybe. See some friends,"
"Aiden, you have no friends," Blake mutters - she and Damon made up, and are friends again.
"You're right, Blake," Aiden says and he turns to his little brother and says, "I only have you and Damon. Where are we goin'?"
"We are not going anywhere," Stefan replies. "I'm going to live my life as far away from you two as possible."
"But we're a team!" Aiden enthuses as he walks closer to Stefan. "We could travel the world together. We could tryout for The Amazing Race."
"Mmm, that's funny," Stefan muses. "Seriously, where are you going? Because we are not staying here. We're leaving the house to William and Blake."
Before Aiden can reply, someone rings the doorbell. Stefan walks away to open the door, and he finds Liz Forbes.
"I'm here to see Damon and Blake," Liz says.
"Uh, sure ok."
Damon and Blake walk out of the living room, leaving William and Aiden alone.
"Sheriff," Damon muses as they get to the doorway. "What a surprise."
"Sorry to bother you guys, but we need to talk," sheriff Forbes informs the,.
"Come in," Blake coos.
Liz steps inside the house and Damon closes the door behind her. Both Damon and Blake lead Liz into the courtyard behind the house, and closes the door.
"Um, I hope you understand the secrecy," Damon claims. "Stefan doesn't know about this yet and I'd like to keep it that way." They purposely didn't bring up Aiden or William.
"Of course, kids are too young to be brought into this," Liz replies.
"So, what do you need?" Blake asks as she leans against the wall of the house.
"There's been another attack," Liz tells them and Blake tenses. "A female victim, her throat torn out, completely drained of blood. It fits the pattern."
"I'm sorry. I don't understand," Damon speaks in a low voice. "I thought we salved the problem when Aiden amd I..." he looks at the door and back. "...staked the blonde one."
"I'm thinking she must have turned someone," Liz claims. "Or multiple someones. I don't know." She lets out a soft sigh. "The story for the town is another animal attack but I'm not sure how long we can keep lying to them. The council is in an uproar. We thought we were past this."
"So, uh, what do we do?" Blake asks.
"I was hoping you guys could tell us," Liz admits.

When Blake snuggles up to William, Damon walks sheriff Forbes to the door. He thanks her for stopping by and says he and Blake will let her know what they come up with. When Damon closes the door, Stefan vamp speeds over and slams Damon against a wall. Blake quickly grabs Aiden's arm to stop him from attacking Stefan.
'What's wrong with you!?" Stefan roars. "You killed somebody?"
"Get off of me," Damon demands and he pushes Stefan off. "A... don't touch me. B... if I had, I wouldn't have been so obvious about it." He walks past Stefan and stops, then turns around. "C... There's another vampire in town."
"That's impossible," Stefan replies; they all know William and Blake didn't do it, they were... busy last night when the female was killed.
"Obviously not," Damon says and he walks into the parlor, he sits beside Blake and William on the sofa.
"Then, who could it be?" Stefan questions.
"Ah, What do we care?" Aiden muses from his dear. "We're leaving anyway, right?"
"No, I can't leave now and you know that," Stefan says as he approaches Damon, Aiden, William, and Blake. "How are we supposed to find this person?"
"We the adults handle this, Stefan," Damon muses.
Stefan looks at him weirdly, conflicted before he walks away. Damon and William begin talking about old times while Aiden looks longingly at Blake. He understands why she hates him, he did turn her into the one thing she didn't want to me. She told him that. But he did it anyway.

"Blake Gilbert," mayor Lockwood muses as he approaches her and William at the high school for the career fair - she's here for Elena and Jeremy. "William Maxwell."
"I'll see you guys soon," Blake says and she walks over to sheriff Forbes. "Hi, Liz."
"Hey, Blake," Liz greets, she's tired and in uniform.
"So," Richard Lockwood, the mayor, says as he walks up, "What do we know?"
"Nothing new to report yet," Liz replies and Richard groans. "My highly reliable deputies are all on alert, but if you feel the need to be more proactive, by all means, grab a stake and have at it."
Richard grabs a cup of coffee, staying with Liz and Blake. "What extra precautions can we take?"
In a distance, William is listening to every word.
"For right nick there is nowhere safer than a crowded public plaice and for one, mayor, we actually know where our kids are," Liz says. "And our siblings kids."
Blake smiles and she watches Jeremy approaches the artist booth where Tyler is. Blake stays where she is, with Liz Forbes and Richard Lockwood, two of the founding family members and council members.

Stefan walks away from and he spots Logan Fell talking to a distraught Blake. Elena follows stfan quickly and she asks what's going on. Logan says goodbye to Blake and he walks over to where Stefan, Jenna, and Elena are. William makes his way through the crowd to get to his girlfriend, he knows that Damon supposedly killed Logan.
"What did he want?" William asks Blake.
"He... he wanted to let me know he wasn't dead anymore," Blake replies. "He's a..." she looks around amd sees Liz within earshot. She whispers, "a vampire."
William pulls her into a tight hug. "Call Damon."
Blake pulls her phone out of her back pocket and she walks outside the school. She glances up at the full moon and she sighs before she goes to Damon's contact.
"Logan Fell is a vampire," Damon says instantly into the phone when he picks up, "and when I find him, I'm gonna destroy him limb by limb."
"What happened, Damon?" Blake asks, she knows his agitated voice when she hears it. "Are you ok?"
"No, I'm not ok," Damon replies as Elena and Stefan aporoach Blake. "I was ambushed. I was shot. Now, I'm vengeful. Just got to find him."
"Well, no need to worry," Blake states as Stefan watches her carefully. "He's at the high school."
"You're kidding me," Damon mutters. "Why thd hell is he there?"
"He's working the crowd," Blake says and Stefan mouths for her to add the part about her. "And he wanted me to know he's alive and knows about me."
"He talked to you? Threatened you?" Damon asks, he's looking at himself in the mirror.
"Yes," Blake replies.
Damon growls. "Well, Blake, I'll be right there."
Blake hangs up and Elena crosses her arms.
"So," Elena says to her boyfriend and aunt. "Anything either of you would like to share?"
Blake and Stefan share a look as William comes out.
~~~
Blake and Stefan enter the school again, they just saved Caroline from Logan Fell, he was going to make Care his NXT victim. Elena quickly walks over her aunt and boyfriend.
"Caroline?" Elena asks, Hope I'm her void.
"She's ok," Stefan assures her.
"We took her home," Blake adds. "She was shaken up. But all she knows is Logan attacked her. Nothing else... and let's start, Caroline better not hate me anymore. I can't name how many times I've helped save her."
Elena smiles at her aunt but then her smile falls. "Where's Logan?"
"Damon, William, amd Aiden are dealing with him," Stefan replies.
"As in...?" Elena doesn't have to finish her question.
Stefan nods. "You saw what happened tonight, right?"
"And that's my cue," Blake mumbles and she walks away; she stops by an army booth.
If Blake had never been turned onto a vampire or moved back to Mystic Falls, she was going to join the Air Force. She used to fly planes a lot in New York. Well, when she wasn't bartending. Being a bartender was only an job to pay for flying lessons. Amd that was always Blake's favorite place to be... in the sky.

William and Blake lay side by side after some more heated sex, both actually panting, even as vampires. Blake smiles before she curls up to William, and allows her eyes to close.
