POSTING SIX IN A ROW HERE...ANOTHER SIX TO CATCH UP...HOPE EVERYONE IS DOING WELL AND, AS ALWAYS, THANKS FOR THE AMAZING FEEDBACK. :)

RANDOM WORD: CHOMPING

The snap of jaws seemed to be coming from everywhere. Bonnie could hear their menacing chomps on the other victims. She was semi-conscious and confused. She must have been attacked from behind on her way to Damon's house. He was probably worried.

"Look who's joined the world of the living!" Isobel clapped enthusiastically when she noticed Bonnie's open eyes.

"I should warn you..." Bonnie's voice cracked under the strain of talking when her throat was so dry.

"That you're a witch?" Isobel's wide eyes almost seemed innocent. She gripped Bonnie's chin tightly and tilted Bonnie's face while leaning over to meet her at eye level. "I know. That's why we picked you. Your powers make you absolutely delicious. It's no wonder Damon can't keep his head around you."

"You're pathetic." Bonnie spat.

"Feisty too. How fabulous! You know, Bon Bon, do you mind if I call you Bon Bon?" She stopped, but continued when Bonnie simply glared. "You might be the most delicious thing I've eaten in years."

"What do you want?"

"Want? Well, Dear, all I want is to have some fun, share some food and laughs with my friends, and," she paused to a calculated effect. "If I get to nail your self-righteous asshole of a boyfriend in the process. That's just icing on the cake."

"He'll find me." Bonnie challenged. "Then he'll hunt you down and kill you."

"Awww, that's a risk I'm willing to take Bon Bon." She stroked Bonnie's hair, but Bonnie jerked away from her leaving her hand hanging awkwardly in mid air. Isobel simply giggled.

"Bonnie!" Damon's panic echoed throughout the large empty house.

"We're in here Darling!" Isobel called. Damon raced into the room and had Isobel pinned to the floor before Bonnie could blink.

"What the hell do you think you're doing? I'll rip your head off."

"We were just talking. You are very protective of that human. I just wanted a taste." Isobel pouted.

"No one tastes Bonnie, but me. Do you understand? Touch her again and I'll kill you." Damon released her and had Bonnie in his arms immediately. "We're leaving."

"You can't protect her forever Damon. Katherine's on her way back to Mystic Falls and she'll find you. She always has. If you betray her she'll kill you. All's fair in love and war right?"

"She might." Damon paused and glanced at Bonnie. "But this time, I've got something to die for."

REVIEW: SIMILAR TO AN EARLIER PIECE AND I TRIED TO CHANGE IT, BUT IT JUST KEPT COMING OUT THIS WAY.
