   I was still in bed at 10am when Damon came in to wake me up.

   "Rise and shine sleepy head, Ric called for a super squad meeting," he throws open the curtains.

   "Mhhh," I groan as I roll over, covering my eyes. He walks over to my bed and pulls off the covers.

   "Come on, I'm not waiting for you all day. You said you were here to help us. Time to do some helping. Now, hurry up."

   I lie there for a few seconds, contemplating my life before I make myself get up and turn on the shower. This is one benefit of living in the boarding house. Their amazing showers.

   When I'm finally ready, I walk downstairs to see Damon at the door, dangling my car keys. "I thought you might let me drive your car this time. Let me try out that fancy little Porsche."

   "Not a hope," I snatch the keys off him. My car is my baby. There's no way I'd take the chance of him scratching it.

   We get to the school and head straight to Alaric's classroom, earning some stares from students walking past us.

   "Damon, Angela. Thanks for coming."

   "Sorry I'm late," Damon says, "dog ate my uh... never mind," he says when he sees the annoyed looks from everyone. I smirk. I look at Stefan and Elena and see they look... concerned? Worried? Damon notices this too.

   "What's with all the furrowed brows?"

   "I saw Isobel last night." My eyes widen in shock.

   "Isobel's here? In town?" Ric nods.

   Damon sighs. "this is bad. Real bad." He starts to pace the room.

   "Did you ask about Uncle John? Are they working together?"

   "No," Ric sighs. There's a lot of sighing going on in this classroom.

   "No, they're not?"

   "No, I didn't ask."

   "What about the invention?" I pipe in.

   "Didn't ask," Ric looks at me.

   "Does she know about the tomb vampires?" Damon walks over to him.

   "I don't know."

   "Did words completely escape you?"

   "I was a little too distracted by my dead vampire wife to ask any questions."

   "What does she want?"

   "She wants to see me, Damon," Elena speaks up.

   "Alaric is supposed to arrange a meeting. We don't know why or what she wants," Stefan fills us in.

   "You don't have to see her if you don't want to," Damon directs at Elena.

   "I don't really have a choice."

   "She's threatening to go on a killing spree," Ric adds.

   "Oh. I take it that's not okay with you guys," I roll my eyes at Damon.

   "I wanna do it. I wanna meet her. If I don't I know I'll regret it."

   "Are you sure?" I ask. "Because the time I met with Isobel, she wasn't very... pleasant. And who is she to be threatening to go on a killing spree? She's only been a vampire for what? 3 years? Maybe she needs someone to set her straight. A good beating." I smile. They all frown at me except for Damon who looks satisfied with my suggestion.
