So, here`s chapter 2. It keeps the show`s story line so it has spoilers. Hope you enjoy it!

Rose

Tyler was trying very hard not to freak out but watching all the stuff people left at Sarah`s locker was really not helping. On top of that Aimee Bradley seem to be missing. He felt like he should have done something. The guilt was rapidly overcoming him.

He went straight to his locker trying not to look at anyone in the eye, he tried to open it but instead he broke it. He was shocked at that, he had barely use any force. He looked sideways to see if anyone saw it, his eyes went to a brunette girl at the end of the hall looking straight at him and she smiled when she caught his eye. He had never seen her before. He quickly avoided her gaze and acted as nothing happen, he looked again and the girl was gone. He furrowed his brow. He really was losing it. He needed to talk to Caroline soon, the paranoia was driving him crazy.

She decided to visit the High School that morning and get herself acquainted with the main players, she had to get closer without them noticing. Besides, she needed a cover fast and she already had an idea of who will help her with that. It was two birds with one stone really.

She spotted the Lockwood kid walking as if a ghost will suddenly pop up behind him. Curious. Perhaps Katherine succeeded with that little project. He walked to his locker and broke it. She saw him blinked in surprise.

He triggered the curse. That was a done deal them. Good. He suddenly caught her eye and she smiled at him. He looked away quickly and she left. No use getting him suspicious over her so soon.

She hesitated between seeing the doppelganger or getting a quick bite from one of the boys she saw eyeing her. She caught the girl`s name in a conversation and that immediately had her full attention.

"…You and Elena. Look, I`m glad you guys are back together but If she`s gonna sleepover you gotta.."

"Wait, wait. Hold on a minute" by this moment she was rounding a corner and saw a teenage boy and if she wasn´t mistaken, he was actually the Gilbert boy. He was talking with whom she recognized as Stefan Salvatore.

"We`re not back together" Stefan said to the boy.

"Wait, she didn´t stay at your place last night?" Oh no. She had a feeling today wasn´t going to be the uneventful day she was hoping for.

"No, I mean I saw her at the party but that was it. She didn´t sleepover"

"Because her bed hadn`t been slept in" she sighed. Maybe the girl stayed with one of her friends. "And Mrs. Lockwood said her car was still in the driveway" well, there goes that theory.

"Where is she then?" the boy said. Damn.So the Gilbert girl really was missing.

Wasn´t this a nice development? This could complicate things if they didn't find her soon. She saw them moving her way and quickly left the building, she would stay close. She still needed to talk to someone but this was more important now and she wanted to see how they reacted to this. She could study them this way. If worse came to shove, she`ll have to step up and find the girl herself but not yet.

She went to the parking lot to sat by her BMW. She didn´t want to be seen lurking around especially now that the Gilbert girl was missing. Any new face was always suspicious.

She searched with her eyes and ears for anything. After ten minutes she spotted Stefan coming her way. She saw him greet a figure in black. Damon.

"This has Katherine written all over it" she heard Stefan saying. Nop, she would know.

"Katherine is in the tomb, trusts me. I`m the one that shove her in" Indeed, he did.

"Did you?"

"Did I what Stefan?" sibling rivalry coming right up.

"Well, I know the hold that Katherine has on you"

"She`s in the tomb. Period. End of story" she rolled her eyes. As entertaining as this was they were wasting precious time.

"But she did said something to me right before I shut her in" What the hell was he talking about?

"I thought she was lying"

"What did she said?"

"Elena is in danger" No way. Katherine surely meant the Originals and there was no way they knew of Elena. If that was the case… she needed to talk with Katherine soon. They can`t be responsible for this. Who was it then?

"What? And you didn´t think you should ask her to elaborate?"

"Everything she says is a lie! How am I suppose to know she was gonna start spouting out the truth?"

"We have to go talk to her"

"No no no, let me tell you how`s that`s gonna go. We`re gonna go ask her for help. She`s gonna negotiate her release which we`re gonna be dumb enough to give her and she`s gonna get out and kill us. That`s exactly what she wants"

"I don´t really care" Hmm… she thought Damon was the irrational one.

"It´s a bad idea, Stefan"

"It`s Elena" she watched as Stefan went back inside. Damon stood there for a while and soon followed after him. She stayed there and kept looking for anything else with her ears. She searched for any of the brother`s voice. Did they left without her noticing?

There. Stefan was talking with a girl. She knew this voice. Of course, Lucy was talking with her before she left the party last night. Another Bennett witch.

"I can`t undo the tomb spell, Stefan. Even if I wanted to" The witch was too inexperienced.

"It took both me and my Grams to do it the first time"

She listen them argue about Katherine and she was about to go there and bite someone There was a witch there. Do a locator spell! Really, it wasn't rocket science.

"What if there was another way of finding her?" she heard the girl say. Finally.

She checked her watch. It was noon already. The girl was missing since yesterday night. Maybe she should step in already. She didn´t want to call Lucy so soon and had her more on guard but they didn´t appear to know what to do.

Who could have taken the girl? It had to be someone who knew of the doppelganger. But how? No. There was no way. She knew that the Petrova line was dead to the Originals. It had to be an accident. Someone came to Mystic Falls, perhaps searching for Katherine and discovered Elena instead.

Damn it. Think! Who may know that Katherine didn´t die in 1864. Again, not the Originals. A few werewolfs, not important right now, they didn't know she was Katerina Petrova. Who could…? She stopped herself. That stupid big mouth vampire with his damn theories! How could she be so stupid? If he wasn´t so useful she would have kill him by now because he had already shared with her what he thought happen in 1864. And if Slater told her that, then he definitely told someone else.

What worry her was that Slater didn´t call her. She paid him good money to keep her informed and anyone who was interested in contact an Original was something she would want to know. She banged her head against her seat.She would have to deal with him at some point.

She focused on the witch again and heard her talk with the Gilbert boy.

"…I`ll use your blood to draw the energy for the tracking spell" the girl said "You`re blood related, it would make the connection stronger"

A door opened and closed.

"…Alaric said we have to clear out of here within ten minutes. I got weapons he stocked me up" Alaric? That name… Isobel. God, Katherine certainly forgot to tell her a few things.

"You ready?" the witch said. She waited until she felt it. She closed her eyes. The power, not very strong exactly but raw.

"There. She`s there" where the hell was "there". Say it out loud! She was beyond annoyed. She needed to know in case they blew it.

"That`s 300 miles away" Still not helping!

"No, Bonnie. We need a more exact location than that"

"That`s as close as I can get" Little incompetent witch.

"We can map it, aerial view. It would show us what`s around there. Help us narrow down the area" Clever boy. She smirked to herself.

"Perfect. Call me with whatever you find"

"No no no, I`m coming with you" The boy thinks to much of himself though .

"No Jeremy, you`re not" Jeremy then. Better remember that.

"I`m not just gonna sit here. What if she`s hurt? Or worse? What if she`s…"

"She`s not" That I guarantee it. She will be very much alive "You two go back to your house just in case, I`m gonna call you the minute I find her"

"Well you can`t do this alone" the door opened again.

"He`s not. Let`s go" Damon`s voice.

"You`re coming with me?"

"It`s Elena" She lifted an eyebrow at that. Interesting.

She couldn´t follow them. They will sense her. She drummed her fingers. If the girl wasn`t back today there was the risk of her being delivered. It wasn´t easy to contact an Original and if she was following the theory of Slater being the talker, it will be Elijah who answered. That was better than another one. She had her suspicious about Elijah but she never confirmed it.

She saw the brothers outside again and then leaved in a blue Camaro. That was it then. She would get her other business over with and then stalk the witch and the boy to know how this turn out.

She left the parking lot and approached the school again. Kids were everywhere and a few of them looked at her curiously. They didn´t know her but it wasn´t exactly a tiny school.

She spotted him after ten minutes of searching. He was sitting by himself near a tree looking pretty depressed.

"Matt Donovan?" she asked smiling. He looked up surprised. He gave her a small smile trying to be nice but she could tell he seemed confused.

"Err.. Do I know you?"he said looking apologetic.

"Oh no, I`m Sophie Keats, I just moved here actually. Do you mind if we talk?"

"Sure, nice to meet you, so you just enrolled?" he asked and offered a seat next to him.

"God no, I`m 19, I`m done with High School" she said laughing. He looked confused again.

"What are you doing here then if you don`t mind me asking?" she smile at him again. Such a sweet guy.

"I came to talk to you actually" he blushed a bit at that. She licked her lips. She was getting hungry "I was told that you work at the grill?" he nodded his head at that " And that you`re the man to talk to if I want to get a job there" she said. She saw understanding in his eyes now.

"Well, I guess I could recommend you but the final saying goes by the owner" he said scratching his head. He seemed less haunted now that she distracted him from his thoughts.

"That will be so amazing" she said enthusiastically. No compelling necessary yet.

"How about you tell me a bit about yourself" he asked her.

"Ok, I live on my own. I`m an orphan"

"I`m sorry" he said.

"It`s ok, it was a long time ago. Well, I have money left to me. I moved here recently as I told you. I`m an artist, very hard working and would really like that job" she finished.

"So, no college?" he asked curiously.

"Not at the moment. Maybe in a few years" he nodded as if understanding. "So, how about that recommendation?"

"I`ll do it, you seem really nice" he said smiling back at her. There was a commotion and both turned their heads. She saw the Lockwood kid glaring at a blonde girl. Ah, the other vampire. He apparently had kicked a garbage can against some car. She turned back to Matt.

"What`s that all about? Do you know that guy?" she asked innocently.

He looked upset and confused for a while.

"Yeah, I don´t know. Why don´t we go to the Grill now so you´ll talk to the owner?" he looked ready to get away.

"That would we great" she smiled at him again.

Rose and Trevor. That explained Slater´s silence, she´ll give him a call tomorrow. She stayed hidden outside of Elena´s house as she explained her brother what she learned.

It was Elijah who came. Now that that was confirmed she fell a chill run down her spine, she didn´t know if she could go down that road again. Elena said that the Brother`s killed Elijah. She very much doubted that. She could only hope that Elena´s whereabouts stayed hidden for a while.

She heard the girl getting ready for bed and decided to call it a night. She was about to leave when she saw Damon Salvatore entered the house through Elena´s window. She hid again and waited.

"Cute pj`s" Damon`s voice.

"I`m tired Damon" came the response

"I brought you this" Sophie furrowed her brow not able to see what they were talking about.

"I thought that was gone" she heard Elena say "Thank you"

"Please give it back" she sounded scared now.

"I just got to say something" he said to her.

"What do you have to say with my necklace?" the girl asked defensively. Sophie touched her own lapis lazuli necklace. Vervain necklace.

"Because what I`m about to say is probably the most selfish thing I`ve said in my life" She knew this wasn´t something Damon wanted anyone to listen. It was obvious what he would do after. She still stayed. This vampire could complicate things, every detail was important.

"Damon don´t go there"

"I`ve just have to say it once. You need to hear it" he said. Sophie closed her eyes.

"I love you Elena" she couldn´t stop the sigh that left her lips. She hoped he was too distracted to hear it.

"And is because I love you that I can´t be selfish with you" Sophie leaned against the wall "Why you can´t know this. I don´t deserve you. But my brother does"

Vampires and their stupid ability to love. She cursed.

"God, I wished you wouldn´t have to forget this. But you do" she heard him say.

She stayed perfectly still as she saw him leave. She shook her head and left too.

AN: Just to avoid any confusion, her name is Sophie not Mina, she was just messing with Lucy in chapter 1. Also, this chapter doesn´t have bloody aspects to it but I wanted to show this part of her personality. How she stays in the dark, observes and gathers information on everything.
