Re: Damon/Lucifer.
The Augustine Society that claimed to be doing research found one of our relatives and basically paid him if he could get Stefan and I to participate. Of course he lied to us about it. I got a letter that said my brother was in trouble and I needed to come to Mystic Falls ASAP. He contacted the Augustines who subdued me when I arrived, but I killed our dear cousin as I was going down. I was taken and put into a cell for five years while they 'Researched' my healing properties. My cell mate will be one of the partners in this little business venture if we can make it work.
I bet it would. However, once the vessels are obtained, it would end up very differently. Kind of like the humble applicant who turns into a power hungry tyrant when given a little opportunity.
