Damon reaches for his pocket and hands Eve a small object that she couldn't fully see. She uncrosses her arms and gives him a suspicious look while taking a step closer.

Damon rolls his eyes at her "it doesn't bite" he says

She gives him a bored look and reluctantly takes the small object in her hands. Evangeline takes a look at it and a deep frown takes over her delicate features "this is..." she trails off

"Yes it is Jonathan Gilbert compass" he finishes for her, getting up

She looks up at him "how do you have this?" she wonders

He rolls her eyes at her once again "let's just say that I took it from someone that wasn't going to use it anymore" he explains with a smirk

Eve shakes her head at him "who was that person?" she asks "Jeremy was the one that had this" she adds lifting the hand that was holding the compass

Damon sighs in frustration "that's none of your business sleeping beauty" he warns

Her expression turns mad "first of all, I have a name" she says "and second it is my business when my family is involved" she points out

He takes a step closer to her, a dark look in his eyes "let me put it this way, if you don't stop with the chit chat and help me I can make sure your family is a lot more involved" he threatens

Eve stares at him for a moment, anger boiling in her. "what do you want me to do?" she asks after a moment deciding that was for the best not to defy Damon. After all, they had a common goal at the moment

Damon gives her a side smile, probably feeling victorious "that wasn't that hard was it?" he teases

Eve rolls her eyes at him "who is chit chatting now" she throws his own words back at him "just get to the point" she request

Damon tells Eve that the compass is use to track down vampires. It works like a normal compass but instead of pointing the north it points to vampires. And that was the reason that Damon couldn't use it, being a vampire himself he interfere with the object so, he needed a human to help him track down this mystery new vampire. Evangeline agrees to help him and the compass lead her to an old abandoned warehouse

Eve picks up her phone and calls Damon "I think I found him" she murmurs into the phone as soon as Damon picks up

"Where are you?" Damon asks with a demanding tone

Eve gives him the address and before she could say anything else he hangs up the phone. Eve lowers her hand and looks at her phone while shaking her head

"See, we make a good team after all" Damon says appearing behind Evangeline

Eve jumps, startled, and quickly turns around "agree to disagree" she says, facing Damon "what do we do now?" she wonders

Damon smirks "I'm going to go in there and have a polite conversation and you..." he pauses, taking a step closer "are going to go home" he states taking the compass from Eve's hands

"Hey" she protests "that's not yours" she points out

Damon purses his lips "agree to disagree" he mocks "you can go now" he declares

Evangeline takes a deep breath, glancing at the door from the warehouse and realizing that that was not the place for an argument "you might need help" she points out

Damon lets out a laugh "from you?" he mocks "go home" he demands going in the direction of the warehouse and leaving Eve behind

Eve sighs in frustration and walks back to her car that wasn't far from there. A loud sound comes from the inside of the abandoned building making Eve stop. The sounds of what seemed like gunshots kept repeating themselves multiple times before everything fell silent again.
