( Faith never gets used to vampire zippage, but lands with slayer aplomb.
Bonnie has the door open for Clara and Lee to climb into the rental Isaac's opened. She whirls around ready to send a spell before "Stefan," she says, before rushing forward. "Dawn!")
[He smells blood, but it doesn't smell like hers. He glances over at Scarlett and she raises her hands.
"We're all fine. One of the young girls had a close call, but I gave her some blood so as long as she doesn't die before tomorrow, she should be fine, but understandably, they wish to be far away from here."
Stefan nods, before helping Dawn move closer.]
Dawn's leg is pretty bad. Do you think you could get her to a hospital?
[Isaac nods, as Clara and Lee get up to help maneuver Dawn into the back seat. As Stefan pulls back from the car, Scarlett places a hand on his arm.
"Stefan, this was the Tower."
Stefan doesn't have direct experience with the Ivory Tower the way that Damon does. Stefan was always too messy, too close to the Originals for him to have drawn their attention. But he knows enough to go:]
("Here," Bonnie says. "Confirmed." She stands with Faith, arms crossed. "Scarlett recognized two of the vampires." Which means there are more, maybe inside. )
Tower sounds like a bad omen. Like a fortune card. Am I missing something?
The Ivory Tower is an old school vamp organization. They usually fly more under the radar but they've been around almost as long as the Originals have. I've never met them, but Damon had some run ins with them around the first World War.
[Scarlett makes a face. "My fault, I'm afraid. I was beguiled by their good graces when I wasn't at my best. But I do agree that their involvement here is strange. There must be something that we're missing."]
What's to miss? Vamp Organization bad. Stakes for all.
( Leave it to Faith to keep everything succinct.
Bonnie, having headed back to the car to give Isaac a hug and an uncharacteristic quick kiss on the lips (She's trying to do more things for herself!), speaks
"Don't you want to know why? Why them and why now?"))
I certainly do. It'll let us know if we should expect more attacks.
[Scarlett frowns. "The ones I recognized weren't high enough to make this kind of call. They're lackeys more than anything. If we want to know why, we need to find the shot-caller."]

( Do they finish a perimeter sweep, or head back inside? )

[But they're not going to find them out here.]
I'm also willing to bet that they're inside, making sure your fearless leader has been taken care of.

Let's get back in there. Show em the fear they really want to see.

Alright. Let's go.
