For some reason Nadia was in a mood when they landed, at first Katherine thought it was because she had woken her up but it persisted even after they hand compelled someone to fetch their bags and made their way to the fleet of taxis lined up out front. Once they got in the Taxi Nadia's mood improved a little but she remained silent the entire journey, Katherine ordered the driver to take them to her favorite hotel a luxury 5 five, a decade previously she had claimed the penthouse sweet so she could stay whenever she liked. It have have taken more than a couple of compulsions to do it but it was well worth it. As soon as the taxi stopped a doorman opened the taxi as two bellhops retrieved the bags from the boot. "Good to have you back with us Miss Petrova" The Doorman said, Katherine was instantly suspicious until she recognised the man face the old man had been working here the last time she had stayed, she had probably compelled him in the past. "Thank you tell the bellhops to take those to my penthouse will you" she asked sweetly The doorman bowed and opened the entrance allowing them into the reception before going to deal with the bellhops.

Nadia was sufficiently stunned by the penthouse, stunned enough to get over whatever she was sulking about, "this place is amazing Katherine" she exclaimed running to the balcony that opened up showing Paris in autumn in all its glory.

"I known and its all ours".

"What the hell happened" Caroline exclaimed as she stepped into her dorm building, the place was trashed every door stood open with random articles of clothing covering the floor amongst bits of broken furniture and smashed glass, if it wasnt for the lack of drunk people laying around a writing on the walls she would have thought she missed the best party Whitmore had ever had. After she and Elena had that fight on the phone she had stayed at Bonnies for the weekend to let things cool off but she hadn't expected to return to this. "excuse me ma'am but you can't be in here" turned around Caroline saw one of the campus security guard "sorry, this is my dorm what on earth happened here?" she asked, The guard let of a big sigh "someone trashed the entire building and there are a load of things reported missing not that you'd would be able to tell in this mess, clothes, money, jewelry all gone the police have tapped off the building".

Leaving the dorm Caroline quickly whipped out her phone a dialed Elena's phone, but after a minute of dialing tone she gave up and rang Stefan instead.

Hello?

Stefan have you talked to Elena today?

No not really. Why whats up?

The Whitmore dorm has been completely trashed looks like whoever did it was searching for something they went through every room

god what could they have been looking for?

I dont know i would have thought if there was anything worth noticing one of us would have seen it

You think Elena might know?

Yeah but i can't get ahold of her

Weird

i know she was acting strangely last time i saw her

Caroline if the whole dorms been trashed and Elena is missing then i think i know what the they were after

They spent most of the day in the penthouse unpacking for what they hoped would be for the last time, but as the sun fell beyond the horizon Katherine started to get restless "Nadia get your coat" she ordered pulling her own jacket over her shoulders "its time for dinner".

They descended from the penthouse balcony and took the roof tops of Paris heading for where ever was making the most noise, After 5 minutes they ended at a nightclub called Aidez moi a fairly busy place with a queue waiting around the corner. The pair jumped off the roof onto the ground of the alley next to the club, no one saw them apart from the rats and homeless man that looked like he was on his 5th bottle. They approached the entrance and compelled themselves to the front of the queue much to the annoyance of the horde of people some of who had been waiting more than an hour.

They headed straight for the bar and not before long they had potential targets offering them drinks one tall black haired man and a smaller ginger friend of his, the pair pretended to be tourists and were not able to understand french, the men quickly became more confident thinking they were vulnerable. After a few drinks and some fake conversation about their holiday the men offered them a ride back to their hotel, they quickly fetched their coats will Nadia and Katherine waited outside "which one do you want?" Katherine asked, Nadia thought for a few moments "the black haired one gingers remind me of a friend i had back in 1345".

When the men came back they headed for the car smiles on their faces but the moment they turned down an abandoned street the pair pounced, Katherine grabbed the ginger man and quickly and threw him against the wall. There was a moment when the man thought Katherine was simply playing rough but it vanished when the dark veins appeared around her eyes and her fang descended, before he could scream Katherine darted forward and slapped a hand over his mouth silencing him. She pushed his head to the side and sank her fangs into the veins popping out of his neck, sweet blood poured into her mouth and down her throat, saiting the hunger which was always present. They refrained from draining the pair, it would draw unnecessary attention so they wiped the memories of the men and sent them home both swaying from the loss of blood.
