We were in Damon's car in the middle of the woods near Pearl's house. He ordered us to stay in the car while he got Stefan.

I was profusely shaking. My hands were white from the way I was gripping my stomach. I thought I was going to vomit everywhere. I'm glad I did something about this vision though. Relief was ready to wash off me when Damon came back with Stefan.

I look up to see Elena staring at me through the rear-view mirror.

"You're very pale. Are you okay?" Elena asked.

I nodded, still shaking. I thought I was going to vomit if I talked. But I'm just so nervous. I'm overthinking everything right now.

"Angelina, how did you know Stefan was hurt?"

"I already told you it was a hunch."

"Yeah, well that's one hell of a hunch." She taunted.

"Elena please, just be quiet." I said, rubbing my temples. A searing headache was beginning to form. "There's Damon." I mutter, watching him run back to the car in the pouring rain.

"Where is he?" she worriedly ushered as he hopped in the car.

"They have him. I can't get inside." Damon explains.

"Why not?"

"Because the woman who owns the house is compelled not to let me inside." He tilts his head down.

"I can get in." Elena opens the car door but Damon swiftly shuts it.

"You're not going in there."

"Yes I am."

"No you're not." Damon intensely stared into her eyes.

"Why are they doing this? What do they want from him?" Elena wimped.

"Revenge. They want revenge," Damon said.

"We gotta get him. They're gonna hurt him. We need to get him out of there."

"Elena," Damon cups her face. "I know." He presses his forehead onto hers.

I grimaced. Gosh, can they do that anywhere but in front of me?

"What's plan B?" I interrupted, feeling very uncomfortable.

Damon pulled away from her. Elena looks away.

"I have an idea." Damon said, breaking the silence.

Well. Damon's plan B was Alaric Saltzman. To me, it felt strange asking your History Teacher to enter a house full of vampires, kill them, and in the end save your sister's boyfriend. Who is also a vampire.

However, a while ago Stefan told Elena and I about our family ring. One of our ancestors took possession of it. But now, Alaric has it. Why? I have no clue, but he does.

This ring that Stefan told us about has the ability to bring people back from the dead, if they are killed wearing the ring.

How do we know that, you ask? That's because Damon killed Alaric! Which by now isn't a surprise knowing what kind of a person Damon is. Must've been a shock to him when Alaric came back from the dead, I'm sure.

But we really needed his help. It did take a bit of convincing. Still, we got Alaric to help us.

Alaric unlocked one of the cabinets in the classroom, taking out a big duffle bag. Upon opening it, the bag revealed multiple stakes and other gadgets.

"Teacher by day, vampire hunter by night." Damon teased.

"I've got you to thank for that." Alaric replied.
