"The Vampire Diaries" Season 8 refuses to be boxed into convenient conclusions as Damon Salvatore (Ian Somerhalder), Enzo St John (Michael Malarkey) and Sybil (Nathalie Kelley) may not be everything they seem. Although Damon Salvatore and Enzo St John may seem to have turned evil at "The Vampire Diaries" Season 7 finale, S8 will reportedly reveal a twist proving otherwise.

"The Vampire Diaries" seemed to have fallen into unresolvable chaos after an attempted rescue by Damon Salvatore and Enzo St John on behalf of Bonnie Bennett (Kat Graham) went awry as Parent Herald reports. Instead of successfully saving Bonnie Bennett from the clutches of the final Everlasting, Damon Salvatore and Enzo St John themselves became victims of a different power that seemed to have sucked the goodness out of them.
  News grew on the need for Damon Salvatore and Enzo John to be saved from the influence of evil that lurks in the vault. Nina Dobrev, who plays Elena Gilbert, was loudly buzzed to be the savior that comes in at "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8.


Death was equally anticipated for Bonnie Bennett given that the awakening of Elena Gilbert is only possible with the demise of Kat Graham's character. TV Guide, however, reports Bonnie Bonnett and Elena Gilbert may not need to do this musical chair in "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8.
Damon Salvatore, Enzo St John and their new associate - presumably the powerful Sybil - may be enacting their ruthless kills toward a conscious goal that generates a good. TV Guide essentially proposes that Damon Salvatore, Enzo St John and Sybil may be heroes of sorts rather than villains.
