...

This couldn't be happening.

This could not be happening to her. Why? Why would he do this? Why would he try to hurt her, to kill her?

It had to be her fault. She had to of done this. He'd never treated her well, but he wouldn't do this. She must have messed with his head, manipulated him. She had to of done this.

She toyed with everyone's head, made them believe whatever she wanted. And every one of her loved ones were fooled by a pretty face.

They left her, one by one. Because of her.

It had to be all her fault.

...

Salvatore Boarding House, Mystic Falls

"Ev." Damon breathed. His blue eyes drank up the site in front of him, as if she would disappear at any moment. Her raven hair, her green eyes, her angelic features, "How? You're-"

"Dead?" Evelina cut him off, "Yes, I am. The living dead more specifically." Katherine continued to claw at the hand around her throat, causing Eveline to slam her against the wall once again.

Stefan spoke up, still in awe at his living sister, "But how? Father said you died of illness?" Evelina sighed, looking to the floor.

"You should really know by now that Father was not perfect, Stefan." She let go of Katherine, who fell to the floor and immediately began rubbing her bruised throat, "Obviously he lied." Damon's fists clenched at his side as rage began boiling up inside him.

"Then why let us believe you were dead?! Why not come find us?!" Damon growled, grabbing his younger sister's wrist.

"Damon, calm down." Stefan mutters.

The said vampire chuckles, shaking his head, "Calm down?! We just found out our little sister has been alive all this time and did not once try to contact us!"

"Of course I tried to find you!" Evelina yells, trying to pull her wrist out of Damon's unrelenting grasp, "As soon as I was allowed I came back here, but when I arrived at Mystic Falls you were already long gone, and I was told you were dead."

Damon's expression softened and he his hold on her wrist slacked, "So you mean-"

She placed her unused hand on the larger one clasped around her small wrist, staring into the eyes of her eldest brother, "I had no idea you were alive until about a month ago."

"Well isn't this touching." Having composed herself and now leaning against the wall, Katherine stares at her pampered nails in boredom, "One big happy family reunion." She walks towards the siblings, smiling sadistically, "But one question remains unanswered. Why do you show up now of all times? Just as things have started going down with the Originals." Katherine's smile widens as she sees Evelina flinch, "So you do know them."

"What vampire doesn't?" Evelina hisses, pulling out of her brother grip and taking a step towards Katherine "They are the most dangerous vampires ever to exist, of course I know of them."

Katherine stalks closer, "It isn't just that, is it? You don't just know of them, you know them."

Evelina rolls her forest eyes, "Don't be stupid Katherine, I don't know them." She turned around, facing the family she had not seen in so long.

"Ev." Stefan smiles, and suddenly finds her in his arms, her own around his waist. "I missed you Stefan." She mumbles against his chest. He places his head on top of hers, "I know, I missed you two." She pulled back, looking at Damon.

She sped over, standing in front of him, "Da-", he pulled her into his arms, her holding her tightly. "I know. I know." He whispers. She takes a step backwards, whipping her eyes. "I c-can't stay."

"What?" Stefan said, his eyebrows furrowing, ignoring Katherine's "Thank god."

Damon frowned, "I second that, you just got here, why the hell are you leaving? We just got you back, we just found out you haven't been dead for the last 150 years."

"I will be back!" Evelina added quickly, realising why they are so upset, "I just have some quick business to attend to, you'll barely notice I've left!"

"Can't you stay?" Stefan asked, "Damon's right, you only just got here, it can't be that important."

Evelina turned her gaze towards the floor, "I'm sorry, but it is. I will be back soon." In a gust of wind, she was gone, leaving the threesome to stare at the spot where she had once been standing.

"I don't trust her." Katherine spoke up, a few moments later, "What business could she have here? She has barely been back a day, she must be involved with the originals."

"Please, you've always hated her." Damon spat at her, "Let's just get back to looking through the journals."

"Jonas, pick up you bastard." Evelina hissed at her phone, storming through the streets of Mystic Falls towards her motel.

"Hello? Who is this?" A middle aged man answers, sounding irritated.

"Evelina Salvatore, I'm sure you know who I am, I know who you are. I've heard you work for Elijah Mikaelson, yes?" She whispered, smirking slightly.

"How do you know this?!" Jonas growled.

"That's of no matter," She moves out of the way of a passing human, attempting to ignore the smell of their blood pumping in their veins, "I've called to tell you I know exactly where Elijah's body is."

"What?! Where?" He exclaims, she hears a murmur on the other side of the call, but chooses to ignore it.

"Keep your voice down, there's vampires all around this town who are just dying to listen to this conversation." She growls lowly, "It's at the Salvatore Boarding House, in the basement."

"As I suspected." He mutters, "Thank you for the information."

"Its fine, I trust you will be able to save him?"

"Of course, I will be seeing you soon I presume?"

"Goodbye Jonas." Evelina smirks as she enters the motel and ends the call, storming up the stairs to her room, slamming the door behind her. She sped towards the fridge, nearly pulling the door clean off. She grabs a blood bag. She feels her fangs break through her gums.

The copper taste of blood hit her tongue, and her breathed a sigh of relief.

The Grill, Mystic Falls

Evelina entered the mystic grill, a smirk on her angel-like face. Everything was going to plan, as long as Jonas did not fail to wake Elijah, everything would go perfectly.

"Hi," She smiled kindly at the blond bartender. He was cute, in a boy next door kind of way. With his blue eyes and short blond hair, "Could I have a bourbon please, hon?"

He gave her look over, "I'm not sure you're old enough, Miss?"

"Evelina, that's my name." She sighed, "Well, I don't really see the point in compelling you." She mumbled, "I'll have a soda then I guess, thank you."

"Coming right up."

She glared at the floor, scowling, "Not old enough? How the hell am I not old enough? I'm like 150 years older than you! God, why couldn't I of been turned at 21?"

The noise was deafening, as people danced to the band. The place stank of sweat and hormones. Teenagers.

Evelina glanced around the bar. It was nothing special, it looked like every other bar in every other small town. The bar stools seemed mostly occupied by adults, though there was only two or three people, everyone else was dancing around the crowded stage. Evelina smiled at the bar tender as he passed her the drink, before a familiar brunette entering the grill caught her eye.

"Elena." Evelina whispered, smirking. With the young doppelgänger was three other women. One was a tall leggy blond, another a dark skinned brunet, both very pretty and around Elena's age. The other was a beautiful woman, quite a few years older than the girls. They watched the band before the eldest noticed something that obviously annoyed her.

"I need a drink." She groaned, turning on her heel and walking towards the bar. She took the stool next to Evelina, frowning.

"Boy troubles?" Evelina questioned.

"You have no idea." The woman grumbled, before ordering a drink.

Evelina smiled, holding her hand out, "I'm Evelina."

"Jenna." She replied, shaking the hand in front of her.

They sat in comfortable silence for a minute, before Evelina sighed, "And I'm guessing that's the trouble." Evelina said as the handsome man walked towards them.

"Jenna-" He said and sat down, but immediately he got cut off.

"Not tonight, Ric. Tonight I have traded you for señor tequila." Evelina smothered a laugh trying to escape her lips with a sip of her drink.

"Yeah. Well, señor tequila's not going to be treating you very well." 'Ric' replied.

"Well, the two of you have a lot in common." Jenna muttered. This time Evelina failed to muffle her chuckle.

He sighed, "Look, Jenna, I hate that you're this upset with me."

"Yeah, well, it's your fault. Because whatever it is you're keeping from me, whatever you think I can't handle... you're wrong." Jenna growls, "'Cause last year I was a grad student who smoked a lot of pot and couldn't keep a goldfish alive and now I'm a parent, so I think I can handle anything, Ric."

"Kinda deserved that, mate." Evelina whispered to him. He glared before turning back to Jenna.

"Jenna..."

Getting bored, Evelina turned away from the conflicted couple, and went back to watching the doppelgänger. Her eyebrow raised when the pretty blond takes off her jacket and walks up to the stage.

"Hey, everybody. Let's hear it for the band! Weren't they awesome?" She grinned, "So there's this guy." Evelina sighed, isn't there always? "And, uh, he told me to tell him how I feel about him. Like it's so easy. Um, you know, just 'cause I talk a lot doesn't mean I always know what I'm actually talking about. Ah, like now, I'm feeling loopy and I don't really know how to express myself. I can sing. Yeah! Yeah. You know what, I'm going to sing." The words seem to tumble out of her mouth, and based on her red cheeks she didn't mean to say half of them.

She seemed to have an argument with the singer, until the singer suddenly goes to play backup, seemingly convinced.

Evelina's eyes widened in surprise, "A vampire." She muttered, shaking her head and chuckling, "That sneaky girl." Her smile widened when the blond began singing Eternal Flame, "Good choice." She noticed the couple beside her stopping to watch.

The cute blond bartender from before grinned, and walked up to the stage before kissing the girl, making Evelina pout, "Aw, he was cute." Not like she would ever try anything, her heart only belonged to one person.

Evelina continued to watch the doppelgänger and her friends, before a familiar person entering the grill caught her eye. Jonas stormed in, fuming.

The doppelgänger's dark skinned friend, stops in front of him, "Dr. Martin, are you okay?"

"Where is she?" He growled. Evelina shot up and started to walk over to the pair, as quick as she could without causing alarm.

"I don't understand."

"My son is dead." Jonas hissed, that's when Evelina started running, appearing next to Jonas in a matter of seconds.

"Jonas, what's going on? What happened to Luka?" She questioned, grabbing his wrist, turning him to face her.

The girl to his right frowned, "Who are-"

"They killed Elijah and they killed Luka and my only shot at getting my daughter back is if I have Elena." He mumbled, almost to himself.

"No. No, ." The girl muttered.

"Jonas, you need to think straight, you just lost your son-" The lights overhead shattered in a waterfall of glass. Evelina immediately grabs the girl and shields her. They both look up, Evelina still holding the girl.

"I don't know, I haven't seen her." The girl whispered in a vain attempt to protect her friend. Suddenly the rest of the lights shattered, forcing Evelina to shield the girl again.

"Jonas, stop this!" She hissed, veins forming beneath her eyes.

"No one getting out of here till I have her!" He yelled, not backing down despite Evelina's threatening glare.

The girl in Evelina's arms shrunk back, "Don't do this. Please don't do this."

Screams rang through the Grill when the bottles of alcohol smash, before fire engulfs the bar. Evelina sped over to try and stop the fire spreading, only to hear the girl she was protecting fall to the floor.

"Damn it!" Evelina growled, using vampire speed and slamming Jonas against the wall with her hand around his throat, "This has to stop Jonas!" She hissed, only to get thrown back, getting knocked out from the force.

Her eyes fluttered open, only to see everyone gone, "Goddammit!" She sped away.

Gilbert House, Mystic Falls

"Your welcome." Katherine smirked as Stefan and Bonnie stare at Jonas's body. She knew pretending to be Elena was a cheap trick, but she didn't really care. She got a tasty meal and an amusing time out of it. And now the man trying to kill Elena was dead, and everything in her plan was back on track.

"You didn't have to kill him!" Bonnie hissed.

She slowly leaned down, placing a hand on Jonas's face. Suddenly he grabbed her, only to get his neck knocked out by non-other than Evelina Salvatore.

"How did you get in here?" Stefan asked, shocked.

Evelina smiled, helping Bonnie up, "I got the doppelgängers little brother to invite me in the first day I arrived here, I have to be prepared for any situation brother." She winked, and he shaked his head.

"Brother?" Bonnie brows furrowed, her confusion obvious.

"Yes, there's another Salvatore. Don't look so worried, I'm the nice one." She smiled at the girl, "You must be Bonnie right? I'm Evelina."

"How did, how did you know?"

Katherine spoke up, tired of being ignored, "She knows a lot of things, don't you Evelina? Always have known more than you should." Evelina glared in response.

"Better not bring up old memories, Katerina." Evelina hissed, stepping towards Katherine.

Stefan took his arm, "Ev." He warned, satisfied when she backed down, "What are we supposed to do with him now?" He asked and nodded his head towards the man knocked out of the floor.

Katherine rolls her eyes, before quickly snapping Jonas's neck, a smile on her face all the while, "There he's dead, no more problem."

Evelina growled, before plastering a fake smile on her face to hide her annoyance. She looked at Stefan, "Shall we be getting home then?"

He grins when she calls it home.

Salvatore House, Mystic Falls

Evelina listened to Katherine and Damon as she flirted with him, lying on her old bed, "My, my Katherine, you never do give up do you." She muttered, a smirk contorting her face. She looks around the room she once lived in, noticing that even after over 150 years, not one thing had changed.

She guessed that even after her presumed death, her brothers could bare to part with her belonging. That thought made her heart flutter, despite all she'd been through, part of her still craved the love of her family. Was that unhealthy? Probably. If only she could have stayed with her family.

But, truthfully, she was glad she couldn't have.

"Well, I suppose I should be thankful, else you wouldn't have tried to get me killed. And then, well," She tilts her head to the side, chuckling, "Who would I be today, if I hadn't of met the Originals?"
