Elena's POV

As I walked in, I saw a woman's dead body on the floor. Well atleast most of it. Her head and torso were there, as I realized the rest of her limbs were scattered through the bloody bar. Oh he made it to easy to find him...even when I wasn't looking.

I suddenly felt the wall against my back, the familiar face looking to my eyes, ready for a freshly seen mind to be erased when r...

ealization struck his face.

"Katherine..." He shook his head and released me. "As you can see I'm busy and not in any mood for more of your games you've been playing latley."

I simply smirked at his wrong attempt on my identity. "Katherine? Sorry but I believe you have the wrong doppelganger."

He genuinely looked confused. I see wisdom doesn't always come with age. So I put on my old, can-do-nothing-wrong human look and he immediatley recognized me for who I was 300 years ago.

"Did you miss me, Stefan?" I shot him an innocent smile.

He tilted his head a bit and looked at me, chuckling. He shook his head and walked back towards the back of the bar, getting ready to get back to his 'fun'.

I raised an eyebrow at his laugh. "Ill take that as a yes?" I leisurely started back over toward him as he turned back around to me.

"Yes, Elena..all these years my soul has been empty without without you..longing to find you again.." He said with obvious sarcasm.

"Oh..touchy." I said as I surveyed the scene around me. He was the full blown ripper again, as my eyes could see. Another obvious observation was that his emotions were flipped, not that I had any objection. We were the perfect match.

Although I did wonder on how he couldn't have had the tiniest hint of happiness, hope, love, or anything showing when he saw me for the first time in 300 years.

As he got back to, what he considered, his day time snack, I decided to join him in the buffet. He seemed genuinley surprised on how I got pleasure and truly indulged in the warm blood pouring from the humans neck. I suppose he still saw me as the old Elena...he has yet to met the new and improved Elena.

Stefan seemed to observe me as he sat, a body dangling numbly from his arms. I noticed this and glanced over, slowly wiping the remains of red liquid from the corners of my mouth.

"Take it as a hunch..but I think you missed me more than you think." I took as a pause as he was about to reply. "Speaking of missing me, where's that brother of yours been all this time?"

Going by his facial features and the way he took a long pause, I had a good guess on how that wasn't a question he wanted to be asked. He simply shrugged and replied in an unusually disgusted voice, "And how should I know where he is?"

"So I have feeling that bond of yours didn't grow any?" I nodded and couldn't resist letting out a small giggle. The whole irony of it was funny to me. I knew if I ever saw Stefan or Damon again atleast one of them wouldn't care and the other would. Its a simple, obvious guess...not to mention I predicted the rivalry of the Salvatore brothers was inevitable.

"So if we're done here..." He stood and made his way for the door. I don't know what he thought, but I wasn't cleaning up after his messes.

"First..what's the rush? And second.." I motioned to the large room, including the now deep red stained floor and walls. "..This is not my problem."

He stopped in his track and turned to look around the bar as well, sighed and looked directly at me.

"I was hoping you'd take care of that. Thanks." He shrugged and walked outside to leave me with the bodies to deal with on my own. Like I was planning on it anyways.

Damon's POV

Unbelievable. Katherine isn't exactly on my good list...so she decides to show up to Mystic Falls along with with my younger brother? Although I haven't seen either of them in many, many, many years, I have a good idea on where they've been and what consists of their list of things to do.

Call it 'shadowing her', but I prefer the term observant as I sat across the bar from the irresistible, once loved Petrova. She simply doused in the alcohol as if not to have a care in the world, pretending not to even notice I was there. That's just like her, I thought as her brown eyes looked in my direction.

I started to give a small wave along with my famous, intentionally flirty smirk her way, when her lips curved their way into a smirk of their own as she spotted me. This was too easy...my thoughts wandered to what to do with her. Play and kill? Or go straight for the longing murder I've been waiting for?

"Long time no see, Damon." She flashed her gorgeous perfect white grin as she sat down beside me.

"Not long enough.." I downed my shot of liquor and carried on with my other drinks.

Elena's POV

Did he think I was Katherine as well? Let's find out who the smarter Salvatore is.

I gave an exaggerated sigh and said, "But Damon...isn't that why you turned me? Hoping to meet up again one day?"

His eyes widened for a split second as he immediatley realized. "Elena." Looks like I knew which brother was smarter.

Katherine's POV

I should have known this would happen. Returning to Mystic Falls was a mistake. I simply wanted to have a little fun with my Salvatore brothers and my doppelganger. But I guess I would have to pay the price for being selfish.

I looked around as I started pulling myself up to a sitting position. I saw...nothing. A bare, small room, a cellar. I was locked in a cellar. This had to be Klaus. I can't believe I let this happen, I've always been smarter than him.

A groan escaped my lips, knowing I was doomed. As I glanced up, seeing a familiar face through the bars of the window confirmed my suspicions. Klaus...with his evil smirk, knowing he's finally won the battle after hundreds of years.

"Katerina...you look pathetic." He said simply, yet still holding that same smirk. I simply shook my head and leaned back against the wall.

"You may think you've won, Klaus.." crossing my arms stubbornly, I replied, "but the war isn't over until someone loses a heart."

"Oh but that can easily arranged soon enough. Don't worry." Klaus chuckled as he walked away and just left me there. Was this all he bad planned..to keep me locked up? Well I suppose its alot better than what I thought he'd had in mind.

Less than a minute later the door suddenly flew open and I looked over curiously. As I hesitantly stood up, I started to walk over, looking left and right out the door to see no sign of Klaus. Escaping would be easier than I thought.

Slowly, quietly taking just two steps out of the cellar was yet another mistake.
