Something's wrong. It's unsettling. It's a feeling Kol would like to make disappear but he can't do that unless he figures out what's causing it. Looking up at the dead vampire pinned to the wall it's just not quite as satisfying as it should be, as it's always been. Maybe it's just that he's been asleep for the last century, surely waking up after this long will take some adjusting to. But that thought doesn't sit quite right because Kol has never worried about anything except having a good time. What was and what might be never really enters into his thought process. Well, that's not completely true, revenge is something he's passionate about and that deals with past events. The only other thing he cares about is his family, but even that is not entirely unselfish. Sure, he does what Nick tells him to, but Nick always comes up with the best ideas. Like killing Mary for instance, it's not really a chore when he's told to do things like this. Watching that Jeremy kid had been a bore but the promise that maybe he'd get to hurt him had made Kol agree help Nick. And to make it a little more interesting he'd befriended the boy, because it's always more fun killing someone who trusts you, that moment when they realise you're betraying them is priceless. But that plan had been shot down by one of those irritating Salvatore's. Damon had showed up and staked him, which was a fucking rude thing to do, and taken the boy. Maybe that's what was bugging him, maybe he needed the chance to hurt Jeremy, it was kind of like unfinished business. Ghosts were bugged by it so why not a vampire?

Now Kol is waiting for Damon to show up, and he will show up because the Salvatore's have this weird thing about helping their friends, they should know family is all that matters. When Damon does put in an appearance Kol can deal out some payback because that's always good. Maybe he'll even get to get to deal with Jeremy as well.

When Damon does show up he puts up enough of a fight to make it interesting and Kol gets his revenge. Unfortunately Jeremy is not with them and it's missing his chance with Jeremy that fills his thoughts not the satisfaction of beating the shit out of Damon with a baseball bat. Huh, who'd have thought it? Damnit, he'll have to go to Mystic Falls and sort this out. Kol has no idea how other people live like this, these niggling thoughts of 'what if' are going to send him batty.
