A/N: Thank you for all the feedback. It was hard writing this chapter but now I have a pretty good idea what's going to happen. Enjoy!

Chapter 2

Previously…

"Alice Salvatore" She read out loud in a hushed tone, "Beloved wife and mother." The word mother suddenly was sketched in her brain.

Stefan had mentioned his father but not once had he ever mentioned his mother. Curiosity might kill her after all.

Elena pressed her fingers over the letters on the stone. At the very bottom of the stone were the date of when she was born and the date of her death. The date read January 7 for the day she was born and today happened to be January 7th.

Elena smiled and sat quietly on her knees paying her respects before standing up to leave. She turned and a figure came into view and smacked her in the face. Elena suddenly fell to the ground, her foot smacked into the gravestone.

Why does this always happen to me? Elena looked up at a woman standing above her.

"C'mon Katherine get up!"

"I'm not Katherine!"

"Yeah sure I believe you."

Elena scrambled to her feet and tried to run but the woman blocked her. Suddenly the woman reached for Elena's neck but yelped in pain and this gave Elena the chance to run. In her mind over and over she mentally thanked Stefan for the special necklace.

The woman stared at her, in shock as she watched Elena disappear.

"She called me Katherine."

Stefan gritted his teeth as he handed her a gauze pad for her knee. It was scrapped and bleeding from tripping on a branch in her fast run.

Her ankle was bruised with ice sitting on it.

"And you got away how?"

"She touched my necklace, it burned her hand, and she let me go, I guess she was shocked."

Damon and Rose arrived by that point, there fingers were currently intertwined but only after a few seconds in the room did they let go.

"What happened?" Damon asked.

"I was mistaken for being Katherine, again."

Damon sighed, "One of the many reasons you should change you're hair style, dye it maybe?"

Elena glared at him as she put a large band-aid on her knee.

"Did you recognize her?" Rose asked.

"All I know is she knew Katherine and wanted to kill her."

"Well that narrows down the list." Damon said, rolling his eyes.

"What did she look like? Maybe I can give you a name." Rose stated.

Elena adjusted the ice pack on her ankle, "She had dark black hair, pin straight, with bangs off to her left side. And the strangest eyes I've ever seen."

Elena paused, "They were light, almost ivory."

The young human watched Rose ponder and for a second she noticed a flicker or shock in her eyes but it disappeared quickly. She was not paying attention to Stefan or Damon's reactions but she should have been.

"Rose?"

"I can't think of anyone at the moment, this is one of those times I wish Slater hadn't gotten himself killed."

Elena nodded as she positioned the ice pack and winced slightly, "I think I'll just go home."

"You should stay, you're in danger." Stefan urged

"I'm in danger every day. I've excepted the fact that will never change for a while."

Elena took off the ice pack; she could walk so that was a plus. She gave Stefan a kiss before walking out the door.

Rose had gone out shortly after Elena's departure and it was just Damon and Stefan alone in the mansion. While Damon as usual poured himself a glass of whiskey Stefan walked in.

"Damon-"

"Whatever you're about to say, don't."

"It's just weird I mean aren't you curious?"

"No I'm not, Stefan. That door is already closed and I prefer it didn't open again."

"You'd be lying if you said you weren't curious."

Damon finished the last of his whiskey, set down the glass, got up and speeded up to Stefan, pressing him against the wall, "Leave it alone."

Elena stared at herself in the mirror, why did she have to be a doppelganger? Why her? Her mom always said her beauty was a gift but did her mom know it was a curse too? Elena combed her fingers through her pin straight brown hair. She hated this more than anything in the world.

Someone banged on her window. Elena jumped and turned around only to breathe a sigh of relief, it was just Rose.

Elena walked over and opened it.

"Maybe you should invite me in for the first time, eh?"

Elena hesitated, "Don't make me regret it, come in."

Rose stepped inside, "I came to ask you a favor."

Elena sat on the edge of her bed again, "Okay."

"I need you to change you're story and say the woman didn't have ivory eyes, it was a trick of the sunlight. Say she had green eyes."

"Excuse me?"

"It's for the best Elena, trust me."

"Rose what's going on?"

"Nothing you need to worry about."

"I was mistaken for Katherine again and almost killed again! So lying to Stefan and Damon, and forgetting what happened today isn't on my agenda."

"You'll regret it, I promise you."

"I don't think I will. Leave you're not welcome here anymore."

Rose stared at Elena before disappearing out the window.
