Bonnie, June and Damon entered Bonnie's room. Stefan was there.

Bonnie: "Did it arrive?"

Stefan: "Yeah."

''He stepped aside and revealed a cheval mirror, apparently bought new. Bonnie smiled when she saw it.''

Bonnie: "Yes! This is perfect!"

Damon: "I still think it's a waste of money. Your old mirror did the job just fine."

Bonnie: "This will be a permanent two way connection. So that anytime I want to speak to Misao, or when she to me, we won't need anything else. Or anyone."

June: (took the ruby out of her bag) "Which is why we paid a small fortune to this tiny rock."

Damon: "As I said and still keep saying, you didn't have to."

Stefan: "So how's it gonna work?"

Bonnie: (took the ruby from June) "I will need this and a drop of your blood, and.." (to Stefan and Damon) "..some space to work the magic."

''Upon this Stefan and Damon took a few steps back. June came near Bonnie as she took a small needle from her table.''

June: "You know that I'm a small percentage of kitsune too, right? And not just any kitsune, it's Misao!"

Bonnie: (smiled) "Which is why your blood is crucial to boost the connection."

June: "That's not what I meant."

She made a sudden noise and moved her hand sharply as the needle pricked her finger tip. But then she squeezed it to make a few drops of her blood fall on the ruby. In the meantime, Bonnie was casting a spell. Eventually a faint light appeared inside the ruby, but disappeared quickly, indicating the spell worked.

Bonnie suddenly looked around weirdly. They caught it.

Stefan: "What?"

Bonnie: "It's Misao. She's trying to get in touch with me."

June: "I call that convenient timing!"

With a smile, she stood up and went to her table to grab the duct tape. She took a piece and went to the cheval mirror as the rest watched curiously. They were all wondering if it was actually going to work. Eventually Bonnie taped the ruby to the top frame, and as soon as she did it, they all looked surprised by what they saw in the mirror. Bonnie took a few steps back, and Stefan and Damon came closer. It was Elena and Misao, standing together. They were all happily surprised to see each other. Silence went on for a while until Stefan spoke.

Stefan: "Elena?"

Tears fell from Elena's eyes with happiness.

Elena: "Hey guys!"

Damon: "Is that really you?"

Elena: "It's me, guys! It's me!"

''June started crying with longing. Elena's heart broke seeing her like that.''

June: "I miss you, Elena. I miss so damn much!"

Elena: "I miss you too. All of you."

Bonnie: "Are you okay?"

Elena: "I'm fine. I'm with Tatia, and.." (she and Misao looked at each other) "Misao's been a great help."

Bonnie: "And Matt?"

Elena: "It's complicated." (looked into the room) "Where's Caroline?"

Bonnie and others looked at each other in confusion.

Damon: "Didn't Misao tell you?"

Elena: "She told me that you think she's under a spell, but she disagrees."

Stefan: "She's wrong." (something about Stefan's voice bugged Misao, maybe even more than that it was Stefan who said it. At that moment he and Misao caught each other's eyes) "Caroline's seen some dark times, but she's never been a vicious and cruel person. Especially to those she loves."

Misao: "What happened?"

Bonnie: "We had to put her down."

Elena: "You what?"

June: "She's fine. But we had to desiccate her until we can find a way to fix her."

Elena closed her mouth with her hands in worry.

Misao: "I imagine that's why it took you so long to reach back."

Damon: "You could say that."

Misao: "I meant what I said earlier. I still do. I don't think this has anything to do with kitsune magic, but if you bring her to me I can still take a closer look. That way we can all know for sure."

Stefan: (to others in the room, after a brief silence) "What would it hurt?"

They all seemed to agree.

Cut to.. Damon left Caroline's desiccated lifeless body on Bonnie's bed. How she looks made everyone feel cold inside, and a tense silence took place as everyone was staring at her. Eventually Bonnie looked at Misao and spoke.

Bonnie: "Now what?"

Misao: "Now I need you to let me in."

Damon: "What do you mean?"

Misao: "This way my guess is as good as yours. To know for sure I have to take a closer look, and to take a closer look, I need to be there. And there's only one way I can be there."

Bonnie: (suddenly understood and her eyes opened wide) "No!"

Damon: (he too understood) "What, to give you access to her mind? Of course it's a no!"

Elena: "Guys, it's okay! And if it's the only way.."

Bonnie: (spoke through her teeth) "I'm not letting her possess me!"

Misao closed her eyes and sighed.

June: "For someone who's taken the ride, I can see where Bonnie's coming from."

Elena: "Guys, come on!"

Misao: "I'm not your enemy anymore. And I'm done trying to explain myself. I don't fool myself to think we're friends. We aren't friends. We're necessary allies. But you came to me to ask for a favor. That goes both ways. You need my help with your problem? I need you to drop your guards, and let me in!"

''Bonnie, half convinced, looked at others. Stefan seemed to be waiting to see how this would be resolved, while Damon was insisting on his 'no' as he was shaking his head. She slowly looked at June. Upon this June looked at Elena, clearly wanting to believe her. But eventually looked at Bonnie and she too shook her head, saying no. Bonnie looked at Elena. But before she could say anything, Elena spoke.''

Elena: "Bonnie, it's okay. You can trust her. I trust her."

''Clearly conflicted, Bonnie turned her back to them and faced Caroline. After looking at her for a while, she spoke to them without turning away.''

Bonnie: "Why does it feel like I always end up getting the short end of the stick?"

Misao: "If you think it'll help your friend, there is no short end."

Bonnie sighed and took a deep breath.

Bonnie: "Do it before I change my mind!"

''Misao and Elena looked at each other with surprise. But Misao had no intention to wait any longer. She closed her eyes and focused, and at the same time, Bonnie's eyes took a reddish color. Damon and Stefan were at an angle to witness the change, and both were surprised.''

Stefan: (to Bonnie) "Misao?"

Bonnie subtly looked at him, but without speaking, she went all the way near Caroline. June became immensely defensive, as if she was expecting her to do something bad and was preparing to stop her. As everyone in the room watched in silence, Bonnie's hands traveled all around Caroline's body without touching it.

She eventually looked at her in shock, and a couple seconds later Bonnie's eyes turned to normal, leaving her surprised about where she found herself. She quickly stood up and looked at the mirror. Misao's face indicated she was genuinely surprised about what she found out.

June: "Well?"

Misao: "Well, technically I was right."

Damon: "And literally?"

Misao: (sighed) "Dead wrong."

Bonnie: "Dead wrong?"

Misao: "She's under no spell. What's making her act the way you speak is essentially a parazite."

Bonnie: "A parazite?"

Misao: "Just like guardians and several other creatures, it's Inari's creation. Here we call it the malach. It latches onto the host's nervous system and eats it away until there's no trace of the person left."

Damon: "That's good." (everyone weirdly looked at him) "We finally know what the problem is."

Misao: "We do, but that's no good news. In order to affect the host this way, the malach has to be fully grown, and a fully grown malach is the hardest to kill."

Elena: "Fully grown? How long does it even take for them to fully grow?"

Misao: "A few months. More or less."

Bonnie: (in shock) "A few months? When could she have been infected?"

Stefan: (with realization) "The night we returned!"

Damon nervously looked at him.

Misao: "It was the same night Inari went to your world. That must have been when."

Everyone was shocked upon the news.

Bonnie: (sadly) "All this time.. She was crying for help, and none of us heard her!"

Elena: "Everything that's happened to her.. It's on us!"

Stefan: "Look I don't care about easy. Just say that there's a way to save her!"

Misao: "I'm afraid not. Even if you manage to destroy the malach, at her stage there will be no recovery."

Bonnie: "What does that mean, at her stage?"

Misao: "The malach is a special creature. Had we acted sooner, something could have been done; but at it's strongest, the damage inflicted becomes permanent. You may be able to save Caroline. But you'll never have your friend back."

Everyone burst into a desperate silence.
