Dear Diary,
It's been 2 more days now. We're still trying to find a way to get Bonnie back. I think Tessa might be our answer to bring her back.
Melissa's phone ringing.
"Hello" Melissa said
"Hey Melissa" Graham said
"Hi Graham." Melissa said
"How you been? I realize you haven't been calling lately and I need to know is everything alright." Graham asked Melissa
"Everything's a little...uh...complicated." Melissa said
"When are you coming back?" Graham asked again
"Tomorrow. I promise." Melissa said
"Ok. Bye." Graham said
"Bye." Melissa said
Melissa hangs up, closed her diary, and went downstairs and saw Elena.
"Morning." Elena said
"Morning" Melissa said
"I made coffee. Do you want some?" Elena asked Melissa
"Sure. (Elena poured some in a mug and gave it to Melissa. Stefan walk downstairs and seen both Elena and Melissa.) How was your sleep?" Melissa asked Stefan
"Ohh...Not great." Stefan said
"First night back in your own bed. Not as comfy as Tessa's couch." Elena said
"If we're gonna talk about Tessa, I think I'm gonna need that caffeine. (Stefan takes the cup and has a sip.) So, uh, what's with the wake up call?" Stefan asked both Melissa and Elena
"We miss you. We feel like when you lost your memories." Elena said
"We lost a friend." Melissa said
"I was driving to Portland." Stefan said
"What?" Melissa asked in confusion
"The night I took Silas to the quarry, I said goodbye to Lexi, and then I decided to keep driving west." Stefan said
"Wait. How do you remember that?" Melissa asked Stefan
"Because my memories are back." Stefan said
"Really? Are you serious?" Elena asked Stefan
"How?" Melissa asked again
"Tessa came here last night and she undid whatever spell fried my brain and it's all back. I can remember everything." Stefan said
"Stefan, this is great!" Elena said
Both Elena and Melissa were smiling. They hugged Stefan.
"This is amazing." Melissa said
A moment later, Stefan, Damon, Elena and Melissa are sitting downstairs, and Damon is testing his brothers memory.
"October 1852?" Damon asked his brother
"You broke my nose trying to teach me how to throw a right hook." Stefan said
"But not on purpose. Just to be clear. (Elena laughs.) How much did you pay for that hunk of junk motorcycle you ride." Damon asked again
"That's a trick question. You bought me that motorcycle although I'm guessing it was pretty expensive." Stefan said
"So Tessa just gave you back your memories, no strings attached." Melissa asked Stefan
"Well it wasn't exactly a gift. It was a lot to take in at once, everything from blowing out the candles on my first birthday cake to drowning in a safe." Stefan said
"Stefan." Elena said
Stefan holds his glass a little too tight and it breaks in his hand.
"Whoa! Easy there." Melissa said
"Stefan, where did you go?" Elena asked Stefan
"All that and I still can't remember my own strength. (Stefan hears a sound.) What was that noise?" Stefan asked them
"Uh, well that is..." Melissa said as Elena finishes her sentence
"We have a situation." Elena said
"Of the doppelgänger variety." Damon said
"Yeah." Melissa said
"Katherine?" Stefan asked in confusion
"No, nope, not Katherine." Damon said
(Stefan, Damon, Elena and Melissa are talking.)
"We need to buy some more time, protect Amara." Elena said
"Maybe we should move her somewhere else." Melissa said
"Silas is a witch. He's a living, breathing, GPS tracking device. He'll track her wherever we take her." Damon said
"We can't let him anywhere near her until he brings Bonnie back." Melissa said
"Weren't you listening to anything? He's not gonna bring her back." Stefan said
"So, what, we should just give up?" Melissa asked Stefan
"Come on, Stefan. You got your memory back. You know me probably better than anyone else. Do you really think that I'm gonna give up?" Elena asked Stefan
"You know what? You're right. I do know you. You put your hope in all the wrong places and sometimes (Stefan is looking at his brother.) in the wrong people. (Stefan looked at Melissa.) Just like you." Stefan said
"That's not fair." Melissa said
"Silas needs to die and put us all out of our misery." Stefan said
"So long as he's alive, I'm holding out hope that he can still help us." Elena said
"Well, as someone who just spent the last few months at the bottom of a quarry because of the guy, I wouldn't hold your breath, pun intended. Silas needs to die, and I need to be the one to kill him, end of story." Stefan said
Stefan leaves the room. But Melissa chases him.
"Ok. Um...What the hell is wrong with you? As I quote: Just like you. I mean what the hell was that?" Melissa asked again
"I don't know." Stefan said
"Well, you damn sure need to figure it out. Cause me trusting the wrong people. Me and Elijah are done." Melissa said
"Are you?" Stefan said
"Don't point that at me. For myself and for Jenna's sake. I'm just trying to build a life. Then suddenly you guys..." Melissa said as Stefan cuts her off
"What's stopping you?" Stefan asked Melissa
"Screw you." Melissa said
Melissa walked away.
Mystic Falls Past.
Mystic Grill.
Melissa's eating fries off of her plate when suddenly a man who's early 20s with black hair and a suit approaches to her. And sits down.
"I'm sorry sir but you need to find another seat cause I don't know you." Melissa said
"How rude of me. I'm Elijah. (Elijah introduces himself. Melissa tries to get up but he grabs her hand.) I won't hurt you." Elijah said
Melissa sits down gently.
"What do you want?" Melissa asked Elijah
Melissa was about to jerk her own hand out of Elijah's grip.
"It seems that your friends aren't very corporative." Elijah said
"What makes you think that I am?" Melissa asked again
"I see that you have compassionate in you and strong and honesty. You're the one who helps the people that you care about." Elijah said
"Keep talking." Melissa said
"I want you and your friends to keep Elena safe and I mean do nothing." Elijah said
"What are you really up too." Melissa asked again
"In order for the curse to happen. Elena has to die. (Melissa gasps.) But I've an elixer that can bring her back." Elijah said
"So you're telling me that she'll be dead and then she won't?" Melissa asked again
"Exactly." Elijah said
"Why should I trust you?" Melissa asked again
"Unlike me. I don't kill innocents. (Elijah puts a $20 dollars on the table so that Melissa doesn't have to pay her own food.) At least think about it." Elijah said
Elijah left the Grill.
Mystic Falls Present.
Salvatore estate.
In the cellar.
Amara sits in her cell trying to get her rope-tied hands free. Both Jeremy and Melissa comes in with a sandwich that is on a plate. They approaches to her. She looks scared.
"Relax. We're just bringing you dinner." Melissa said
Amara stares at Jeremy while he puts the plate on the floor.
"I know you." Amara said
"I don't think so." Jeremy said
Jeremy starts to take the ropes off of Amara's wrists.
"You're the hunter. (Jeremy looks at Amara confused.) I never forget a face, but Silas killed you. You're dead." Amara said
"I was. I came back." Jeremy said
"How? I said, how? (Amara sees Bonnie's ghost.) It was you, wasn't it? You're a witch. You brought him back." Amara said
"Jer. Is Bonnie here?" Melissa asked Jeremy
"Yes. She's here." Jeremy said
Amara was talking to Bonnie.
"Of course I can see you. I'm not blind. I have eyes. Or are you dead? I get so mixed up. I can't tell the difference between the living or the dead." Amara said
"You see people on the Other Side. Can't you?" Jeremy asked Amara
"I am the anchor to the Other Side. I can see everything. (Bonnie's ghost tries to touch her on her shoulder.) Don't touch me! Please don't- don't touch me." Amara said
"Okay. That's weird." Jeremy said
"What is it Jeremy?" Melissa asked again
"Bonnie can touch her and Bonnie has an idea." Jeremy said
"That's great. (Amara looks at Melissa.) It's not polite to stare." Melissa said
"Are we related?" Amara asked Melissa
"No I don't think so. (Amara grabs both of Melissa's wrists and she had a vision. She jerks her own wrists.) What the hell was that?" Melissa asked Amara
"You don't know...do you? About your past? About your ancestors origins?" Amara asked again
"What are you talking about?" Melissa asked in confusion
"You are part of the founding family here in this village." Amara said
"What do you mean?" Jeremy asked in confusion
"You and Elena are related to Katherina. The hunter is your cousin. You're part of the Petrova blood line. You're part traveler." Amara said
"And she could be a Gilbert." Jeremy said
"So that makes me Elena's..." Melissa said as Jeremy finishes her sentence
"Sister..." Jeremy said
"Fraternal twin sister." Amara said
"No...This can't be. I mean this is to much." Melissa said
Melissa runs upstairs.
Later upstairs in the parlor, Jeremy is talking with Damon and Elena. Bonnie is near Jeremy.
"There's more to that story." Jeremy said
"What is it Jeremy?" Damon asked
"I think John and Isobel was lying all those years." Jeremy said
"What do you mean?" Elena asked her brother
"When Amara touched Melissa. She felt cold and upset about something." Jeremy said
"Spit it out Jer." Elena said
"Melissa is...part traveler. She's part of the Petrova blood line and she's part Gilbert too." Jeremy said
"Are you telling me that Melissa is really my...my sister?" Elena asked again
"Fraternal twin sister." Jeremy said
"Where is she?" Elena asked again
"She's upstairs in her room. I think she's kind of freaked out by all of this." Jeremy said
Elena went upstairs and knocking on Melissa's door. Elena kept knocking on the door and then she opened it and she realize that her stuff was gone. But a letter was on the bed.
(Melissa's letter.)
Elena,
I'm sorry but I just couldn't stay here any longer. I will see you again but right now. I just have to take care of my daughter and your...well I'm guessing your niece right now. I don't know if I should say that I love you and Jeremy. Because of what Amara said on who I am. Never knew that I was special. You guys can bring Bonnie back without me. When she comes back to life tell her to video chat me. I love you guys.
Love your sister and friend,
Melissa
10 hours later
Melissa is in Storybrooke and picked up her daughter and going home in the motel.
"How's my little girl doing today? (Melissa touches her daughter's face. Someone knocking on the door.) I wonder who that could be? (She puts her daughter in the crib while she gets the door. She opens it.) Graham." Melissa said
"Hey." Graham said
"Won't you come in. (Graham comes in.) I'm sorry that I was missing a couple of days. I just had to prepare for 1 of my friends funeral and..." Melissa said
"It's ok. You don't need to explain." Graham said
"You want to know something else?" Melissa said
"Sure" Graham said
"I found out that my other friend is my fraternal twin sister. Of course. I check with my blood test and the blood test were positive. (Melissa shed some tears.) I just haven't seen it with my own eyes. I mean I'm a founding family there and a Gilbert and I just don't know if I can handle that right now." Melissa said
Graham hugged Melissa.
"Shh...It's ok." Graham said
