I'm Elena Gilbert. A few months ago my parents died in a car accident. I was somehow saved. Everyone says it was a miracle. But I don't believe that. Not that I don't believe in miracles because I do. But every since then I have felt something different. Yes I'm sad my parents died. I still weep for them. Yes I have changed. I'm a new person. At the same time I have new feelings. New senses. Everything has changed. I have been for months trying to convince myself it's just my grief. But as much I want to believe it. I just can't. The worst part is I don't even know why. But I need to. Somehow.
She looked so much like Katherine. Her hair was dark brown and her skin was tanned just like Katherine. When I put her down on that bridge. I didn't want to leave. People couldn't know a vampire saved her from the accident. So I left. For months now I have been watching her. Learning she is nothing like Katherine. She is compassionate, caring, and selfless. Everything Katherine wasn't. That's why I need to know her. I can't resist her beauty. I feel like a force is pulling me closer to her. Fighting it would be pointless. It's time. I will finally meet Elena Gilbert.
