Kai's Lost Love (On Hold)

Phone Call

"So... Are you going to tell me who Kathe is or no?" Damon asked with caution.

Kai twirled the keychain in circles. "Just someone I used to know."

"Great," Damon rolled his eyes and patted the steering wheel with his right hand. "Of course you won't say anything specific. Always keeping secrets."

"I'm doing you a favor. Get me Lola, I'll tell you about your dear mother."

Damon pulled his car up the former Lockwood residence.

"Well, here we are," he looked up through the window.

Kai got out the car, slamming the door. He walked up the stairs and rang the bell. No one answered. Without hesitation, Kai placed the keys inside the lock and turned.

A few suitcases leaned on the side of the staircase, one fully opened displaying t-shirts with 'I ❤ New Orleans.' Magazines were scattered on the floor, leading to the living room.

"Hmm," Kai studied the area as he entered.

"Let's search around," Damon was stopped by the invisible barrier at the door. "Great. Forgot I never got invited in by Donovan. Well, I'll be waiting in the car."

Kai continued looking around the house, opening every door and peering inside. There was no trace of anyone inside except himself. Disappointed, the Gemini coven leader sits down in front of the TV and rests his head on his hands.

A few minutes passed and the home phone rang. Kai lifted his head and waited for the ringing to stop. He thought it was Damon calling to ask if he's done. The phone went to voicemail.

"Why hello there Malachai," it was a female. "Just wanted to call and say hi."

Kai stood up and rushed to the phone. He pressed the answer button and held it up to his ear. "How do you know me?"

"Oh, I actually have no clue who you are. I just know you're looking for me for some unknown reason."

"Hey, magic sucker!" Damon yelled from outside. "Hurry up and get out! Elena called and said something happened to Stefan!"

Kai walked to the front door and held the phone to his chest. "Go. I'll be back later."

"Alright then. If you say so." The engine started and he backed out of the driveway, heading back to the Salvatore house.

Kai turned around and uncovered the phone. "Look. Where do you want to meet up? Want some coffee? Eat biscuits?" he asked nervously, pacing back and forth, nibbling on a fingernail.

Lola giggled softly. "Sounds tempting but I'm afraid not. I'm searching for something that you have."

"What exactly?"

"The ascendant."
