A pretty brunette walks into the grill, turning a few heads with her casual red jeans, black boots and grey strawberry t-shirt, her hair flowing down her back and kinked completely, her caramel chocolate orbs scanning the crowd as she plays with the silver framed pendent around her neck holding a glittering rhombus diamond in place, that is big enough to fit snuggly in the girl's palm as she walks casually to the bar and smiles to the bartender "I'll have a Nos-Nos and some chilly fires please!"

He scoffs lightly at her cocktail order and says "ID!"

She just smiles and leans in, their eyes locking as she smiles "you've seen it, I'm twenty-one!"

He smiles as he breaks from the trance "coming right up!"

"You're starting early!" a voice says taking a seat beside her

The young beauty doesn't look to her neighbor as she says "it's just one drink… besides the coconut and rum helps with my headache aka you!"

When the drink and food is placed down she picks up the glass and smiles to the man beside her "Chill Maddox… it's just one drink!"

He sighs and shakes his head slightly and stands "well hurry up, we have work to do!"

"Yeah, yeah I know, just let me have a bite!" she says popping a fry into her mouth, eyeing the bartender

A short while later Isobel is walking out of her shower and jump's slightly at seeing the brunette in her room, casually rummaging through her draws "nice place you've got here…"

Isobel goes to attack but is easily pinned to the wall "hush now… Klaus sent me!"

Her eyes widen in fear as she's dropped to the floor "why? He knows I have no choice!"

The younger looking girl shrugs and says "you'd be surprised how often people try to find a loophole with compulsion… we're just here to make sure everything goes smoothly, you know what you have to do right?"

The usually armored vampire nods obediently causing the other vampire to smile "good… and remember… not a word!"

She struts out of the room, Maddox just outside and says "watch her…"

However as she goes to leave he grabs her arm "…don't do anything stupid!"

She squares up to him and says with hard eyes "take your hand off me now!"

He does and she quickly walks out of the house, not bothering to look back at the warlock who pulls out his phone with an annoyed expression

The brown eyed vampire watches as Stefan leaves the house, followed by the elder Salvatore and she can't resist walking around the back and peering inside one of the windows, she watches as Katherine does her hair, tilting her head to examine the vampire with an enraged gaze. Katherine can sense something, eyes watching her, but when she turns to the window there's no one there… a small curious sigh escapes her but after some inspection she gives up and goes back to the mirror, not noticing the angry fingernail marks on the frame of the window!

As the vampire walks around the small town and snarls as her phone rings, already knowing the reason as she answers "Hello Klaus!"

"Hello sweetheart, so Maddox tells me you've gone for a walk…you told me you could handle this!" he says into the phone and the girl just rolls her eyes

"I can, I'm fine he's just being a drama queen! …I promise, I won't do anything to screw this up." She sighs into the phone and can almost hear his smile

"That's my girl… now play nice with Maddox and stay away from Katarina. Greta's calling… I have to go get ready, I'll see you tonight" He says playfully and she hangs up the phone, utterly annoyed

She walks casually around until she gets a text from Maddox and heads over to find Isobel saying goodbye to her husband, watching as he falls to the ground. The brown eyed vampire casually picks up Alaric lick a child would a toy and looks to the witch "I'll set everything up, you take care of Katarina!"

He nods and she throws the teacher into the back of his car and driving to the address she's been given. Once she gets to the apartment she places Ric on a seat and walks over to the cooler filled with Klaus's blood and starts the preparations for the ritual "Sorry about this, but it's necessary… in a few days you'll be right as rain, with a doosey of a headache!"

Afterword's she flicks through the TV stations and makes herself a sandwich, her feet up on the table as Maddox walks in with Katherine over his shoulder, the vampire wipes her mouth and stands, walking over as he places her in a chair, the sun beginning to set and she stands before Katherine, brushes a hair from her face, her knuckles brushing the slumbering vampires cheek "hey you… long time no see!" then backs away with a bite of her sandwich

"I'm bored!" she complains as Maddox starts goes to start the spell

"Will you please shut up?" the warlock begs with an irritated frown

She just rolls her eyes and stands, walking into the bedroom with a shake of her head "whatever!"

She sits and reapplies her makeup in the mirror, but when she hears Katherine's gasp of surprise she looks back out of the corner of her eye, fastening the lid of her lip-gloss as she stills listening as the other vampire tries in vain to escape and Klaus words on another's lips "I have missed you…"

She can hear the complete fear in the doppelgangers voice "Klaus!"

She then turns as their leader answers "the one and only my dear… Maddox, where's Izzy?"

"Right here!" his trusted vampire says walking out of the bedroom, the two sharing a smile

Katherine's eyes widen with utter shock "Ismene!"

Tilting her head the girl smiles bitterly "hello mother!"
