Rebekah had finally returned home from her trip and was in the mood to cause a little mayhem, as well as help her family attain first place in the race for the cure. So, she held a little party at the high school with Stefan, Elena, and Caroline, who were all unwilling participants, of course. They were compelled to humour Rebekah with a game of truth or dare as the Original texted her sister updates and Isa responded with some of her own questions she wanted answered or that she thought would cause the most suffering. Isa and her husband, however, were taking a trip to the Gilbert lakeside cabin to check on Jeremy's progress as a Hunter.

"I'm sorry did we interrupt playtime?" Isa asked as she and Nik went around the back of the cabin where Jeremy and Damon were.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Jeremy snapped.

"Taking a nice stroll with my wife. Enjoying the sights and smell of nature. Neither of which presently include rotting vampire flesh, so I'm a bit concerned," Nik answered.

"How many vampires has he killed?" Isa asked as they faced the boys.

"If we throw Jeremy out into the world right now, he's chum," Damon replied which is not what they wanted to hear.

"Yeah, see, not a number," Isa replied.

"12. That's a number. The number of hybrids we slaughtered after Tyler's pathetic attempt to kill me again," Nik continued.

"3. The number of days it took to quell the urge to kill Stefan but believe me, it's still there," Isa took over.

"1. That's the number of purposes you serve," Nik finished, giving Damon a scathing look.
Isa let go of Nik as she approached Damon. "You are here to grow Jeremy's mark, so I'll ask again, how many vampires has he killed since he's been here?"

"Zero," Damon said sarcastically, as if it would hide how nervous he was right now.

Isa smiled. "Well, now that is a pity."

"We're going to need that cure sooner, rather than later, so, how can we help?" Nik offered.

"You know? Now that you mention it," he said as he loaded a gun with wooden bullets. "Jeremy watch and learn."

He aimed at Isa, but Nik jumped in front of her, taking two rounds in the chest.

"That was for Carol Lockwood," Damon said.

Isa sped over and snapped his neck. "And that was for us," she said down to his dead body before her eyes lifted up to Jeremy. "Your turn?"

And Jeremy wisely moved to help drag Damon away from them as Isa went to pull the wooden bullets out of her husband's chest.

"Oh my god!" Isa exclaimed; eyes wide as she held her phone to her ear. "Oh my god! That tramp!" she laughed.

"Everything alright, my love?" Nik asked as he moved over from where Damon and Jeremy were sparring. Nik had just had his turn knocking Jeremy on his ass and Damon had to feed him blood for the eighth time after Nik broke his spine. Jeremy was definitely a slow learner so Damon insisted that he take over so that he didn't die before they found the cure.

"Bekah, see if you can't use Vampire Barbie to lure her werewolf Ken doll boyfriend out of hiding? Ok? I want updates! See you soon," Isa said before she hung up the phone. She bit her lip before they stretched into a smile and she glanced at the sparring boys. "You will not believe what Bexs found out at her little slumber party truth or dare session," she said as she wrapped her arms around his neck, his arms going around her waist.
