Rachel was sitting at the cozinha table, drinking a cup of tea, to calm herself down a little. Since the events of the anterior night she had been very jumpy. She expected Damon Salvatore to show up out of nowhere and rip her heart, just like he’d done with her daughter. So when the sino rang she let out a scream and spilled some tea.
“Mrs. Lindy? I know you’re home” Stefan called from outside. “I just want to talk”
Rachel stood and walked to the door. She opened it.
“Good morning. I’m Stefan Salvatore” Stefan introduced himself politely.
“You’re the vampire that turned my daughter” Rachel commented cold, but trembling.
“And I’m sorry for that” Stefan responded softly. “But I’m grateful that I got to know her. She was a good friend”
“Why are you here? Surely not to reminisce about my children and how you took them from me” Rachel snapped angry.
“Can I come in? This talks so…weird, you know. And if Veronica sees us…” Stefan said warning.
“I’m not afraid of Veronica” Rachel said in such way it sounded like she meant the opposite.
“And that’s your mistake” Stefan replied. “You think because you’re Kelsey’s mother she will spare your life. But she really just needs you. Vervain bombs or wolfsbane grenades or any kind of human made weapon won’t be enough to fulfill her purpose. She needs you for your fangs and the moment she doesn’t need you anymore, you’ll be dead. Derek understood that”
“Derek’s a coward and a traitor” Rachel snapped.
“Derek made the right choice” Stefan commented. “Think about it. If Veronica is so eager on killing my kind and your kind, isn’t she then betraying both Kelsey and Amber?”
There was something in Rachel’s expression that made Stefan reconsider what he had just said.
“Unless she doesn’t know…” he said slowly, mais to himself than to Rachel.

The sun fell on Amber’s face and she woke up por the heat of it. She rubbed her eyes, trying to orientate, as she saw a man sitting seguinte to her. He looked familiar. As she tried to recall she felt an insistent pain in her neck. She lay her hand on it, to see what it was. “I bit you, that’s why you’re in pain” Stefan explained. Amber looked at him. “Who are you?” she asked, crawling backwards. Stefan reached out his hand. “I’m here to help you” he said softly. Amber shook her head. “No, stay away from me!” she said terrified. Stefan didn’t mover an inch. “You need help. You’re in transition, it’s not a nice feeling if you don’t feed anytime soon. I bet you’re starving” he said. Amber shook her head heavily as her stomach rattled. “I’m going home” she said with a breaking voice. “Leave me alone!” She scribbled up and staggered away from Stefan.
