A/N: Thanks for the response so far! I'm a little surprised, honestly. Here's the next chapter!
I once again don't own the characters and places that you recognize. :)
Summary: A spell gone haywire, Bonnie accidentally resurrects a long since dead woman, who has no idea who she is other than she woke up in a grave and Caroline has her necklace. But, as it turns out, she has a connection with Damon and Stefan.
Not The Person You Used To Be.
Chapter II
"Whoa!" Elena called out, reaching out and catching the falling girl. Bonnie and Caroline helped her friend take the passed out woman into Bonnie's house after determining that she was human. Elena and Caroline placed her down on the couch, the three of them looking down at her.
Caroline looked down at the rusted necklace, taking a glance over at her two friends. "This belongs to her?" she asked.
"Seems like it." Bonnie said, watching as Elena checked to make sure that the passed out girl was still breathing.
"She's covered in dirt." Elena stated, rubbing some of the dirt off her own fingers. Caroline chuckled, gesturing towards the girl.
"So, is she like a zombie or something?"
Elena gave Caroline a look, which only caused the blonde to shrug. Bonnie quickly walked towards the kitchen, opening up the cupboards, pulling down a cup and filling it with water.
"I'm going to call Damon." Elena stated, pulling out her phone.
"He's not coming in my house," Bonnie stated, moving back towards the girl, "tell him that we're going to make sure that she's okay and then he can see her in another place."
"Bonnie," Elena sighed, "Caroline got the necklace from him, he probably has an idea who she is."
Bonnie looked like she was going to retort when the girl on the couch shifted, opening her eyes again. She looked around, confused. Bonnie walked forward, holding the cup of water out towards her.
"Here," she said, "drink this. It'll make you feel better."
The girl took the cup carefully from Bonnie's hand, taking a long gulp from the water. "Thank you." she stated, looking over at the two other girls.
"What's your name?" Elena asked, coming to sit down beside her. The girl's eyes followed her, then looked away at the floor for a few moments. She shook her head, looking back up at Elena.
"I don't know," she said with a sigh, "it's just...I can't...remember. I woke up in this...box under a bunch of dirt. I was in a grave yard, and something...pulled me towards here," she glanced up at Caroline, "but, I remember that necklace is mine. I used to wear it and it was very important to me..."
Caroline stepped forward then, holding out the necklace towards her. "I'm sorry," she said, "this guy, Damon, gave it to me. I didn't know it was yours."
The girl took it from her, brushing some of the dirt off the crystal in the pendant. "It's fine, I forgive you."
"So, you pulled yourself out of a grave?" Bonnie asked, looking a little shaken up. The girl glanced up at her, nodding her head.
Elena looked at Bonnie, looking a little confused. "Is this...?" she asked, "Is this what you meant when you felt something was off?"
Bonnie sighed, pressing a hand against her temple. "How do I fix this?" she asked herself.
"I don't think you can, Bonnie," Caroline said gently, "unless you want to kill her again."
The girl's eyes widened in fear, Elena chuckling and placing a hand on her shoulder. "Nobody is going to hurt you."
"Maybe you should call Damon now," Caroline said, "I'm going to see if I can explain to her how the shower works and get her some fresh clothes."
Elena nodded, standing up and walking towards the kitchen as she pulled out her cell. Caroline helped the girl up to her feet and walked her towards the bathroom.
Elena looked down at her contacts and clicked Damon's name, waiting as it rang. It was a few moments before Damon's voice came through on the other end.
"Elena." He drawled, Elena taking a glance over at the empty living room, Bonnie probably upstairs at the moment and she could hear Caroline explaining how to work the nobs on the shower.
"We have a problem." Elena stated, turning away to look down at the counter top. She could almost hear Damon's eye roll on the other end.
"What's happening this time?" he asked, Elena scowling into the phone.
"A spell of Bonnie's has gone bad, and it seems like she's brought someone back from the dead," Elena stated, deciding not to sugar coat it, "she showed up at Bonnie's house and wanted the necklace that you told Caroline she could have."
There was a pause on the other end, Elena waiting a few moments. "You still there?"
"Look, I'm heading there right-"
"Bonnie doesn't want you over here," Elena interrupted, "she doesn't even remember her own name, so if you do know her, there's a chance she doesn't know you. We just want to get her fixed up again, and we'll come to see you."
"Are you kidding me?"
"It's the way it is." Elena stated, picking up on the sound of running water. Caroline was now in the living room, probably listening in on Elena's phone call.
"Alright, I want to see her tonight."
Elena took a quick glance at the clock, then lets out a sigh, "alright, we'll be there in an hour or two." she ended the call, taking a glance at Caroline.
"He seems to know who we are talking about," Elena said, walking into the living room, "is she okay?"
"She's confused out of her mind," Caroline said, "but she catches on pretty quickly."
"Good." Elena said, leaning back against the couch as Bonnie walked back downstairs with a pair of sweat pants and a shirt.
It was a while before Elena found herself and Caroline driving towards the boarding house, the amnesiac sitting in the back seat in one of Bonnie's old shirts and sweat pants. She didn't say much after getting out of the shower, and Elena guessed that she didn't have much to say.
"Do you know Damon?" Caroline asked, turning to look at her. She watched as the girl just shook her head.
"I don't." she stated.
"What about Stefan?" Elena asked, noticing the girl freeze up slightly. She blinked, an image flicking out of her foggy brain of a little boy with green eyes and a kind smile.
"A little," she said, "I don't know why I do."
"Don't worry," Caroline said, "we will figure it out."
The girl just nodded her head, taking a glance out of the window. She watched as a house pulled into view, Elena's car stopping in the drive way. She got out when Elena and Caroline did, the three of them walking up into the house.
Elena opened the door and walked into the house, Damon coming down the stairs a few moments later. He stopped in his tracks when he saw the girl standing behind Caroline. Her eyebrows furrowed, a frown crossing her lips as Damon walked towards her.
"She doesn't remember anything?" Damon asked after a few moments of silence. Elena nodded, crossing her arms.
"She seems to know English and motor skills, but that's about the extent of her knowledge." she said, Damon walking towards the girl.
"You know her?" Caroline asked, Damon nodding his head.
"Well, I'm pretty sure I know my own sister," he stated, "she's human, how is that even...?"
"Bonnie's spell seemed to do a lot of things." Elena muttered, watching as the girl looked Damon up and down, a frown on her face. Now that it was mentioned, Elena could pick up a lot of similarities between the girl and Stefan.
They were very similar, actually. She had the same green eyes, and now that her hair was washed, she seemed to have a little bit of a darker shade of brown hair. But, she had the same set of frown, and broodiness.
"So, she's your younger sister, then?" Elena asked, Damon nodding his head.
"She's also Stefan's twin," he stated, "though, she's obviously not aware of any of this at the moment."
"Who are you?" the twin in question asked, Damon smirking down at her slightly.
"Damon Salvatore," he said, "your big brother."
She stared at him, looking utterly confused. "Who...who am I? What happened to me?" she asked.
"You are Eloise Salvatore," he said, "though, we call you Ellie. And you passed away over a hundred years ago, though now, somehow, you are back."
Ellie looked between Elena and Caroline, then back at Damon. "You are my brother?"
"Yep." he said, crossing his arms.
Ellie shook her head, placing a hand on the back of her neck. "Why can't I remember any of this?" she asked herself.
"I would give it a few days," Elena said, "maybe Bonnie's spell has effected your memory and once the after effects have died off, you might start to remember things."
Ellie nodded her head, "I need sleep." she stated, Elena glancing at Damon.
"You really think I would let you keep her at judgy's house?" Damon asked, stepping aside as Ellie wondered past him. "This place has been lacking company since Stefan has gone dark side with Klaus."
"Damon," Elena stated, sounding aspirated, "she isn't Stefan, you want to not terrorize her?"
"I'm hurt you would think I would do such a thing to my baby sister." Damon said, placing a hand over his heart in mock hurt. Elena just shook her head at him as she brushed past her to help Ellie get settled into a room.
