I had heard the doppelgänger was living in Mystic Falls, so I felt obligated to protect her. I was posing as a human who went by the name of Irene Engel, a meager 18 senior, who's parents had died in a tragic plane accident on their way to a business trip. I had to act distraught, unless my cover was to be blown. I had apparently gone to Mystic Falls, a lost girl who went to a small town for closure.
Once I reached my new home on Fairshaw avenue (made it up), i opened my car door and slipped out. The moving truck wouldn't be in town for 2 hours, so i only had a few belongings in my trunk. I opened the trunk and picked up the first
"Do you need some help with that?" a voice yelled. I turned around and saw a dark haired boy, about my age. He seemed to have a certain air of swagger around him, but seemed friendly
"Sure, I could use all the help i can get," I smiled. He walked across the street, not bothering to check for crossing cars. Either a vampire or a werewolf, I thought. Only a supernatural creature would not care about getting hurt, since any human death was only a slight bruise to them.
The boy reached into my trunk and grabbed two of the largest boxes. "The name's Tyler Lockwood, yours?" he asked, heaving the boxes into his
"Irene Engel, newbie to Mystic Falls, senior, 18 years old, orphan," I said. Tyler's smile faded as I said the last word. br
"I'm sorry to hear that, but you're welcome to hang out with my friends and I if you want. We're heading to the Grill later, wanna come?" he offered. I stood to the side of the road, shocked. I was already making friends, and whoever Tyler's friends were either knew Elena or somebody who was related to her in some way.
"Sure, I'd love to come. When?" i asked, a smile re-illuminating my heart-shaped /"Whenever we're done with these boxes. They're there all the time, don't worry they'll love you!" he exclaimed. I grinned back, and motioned to the few boxes I had in my
"Once we get these done we can go. The moving truck should be here in two hours, so when we're about done they'll show up. I'll tell them to move everything inside while we're out. Does that sound good?" I said, beginning to move into the well lit
"I think the question is whether its safe," he laughed. I laughed along with him.
We moved everything into various rooms, and went back outside. Tyler stood off to the side while I discussed the plans with the movers. Leaving the key under the mat Tyler and I walked to the Grill, which was only 2 blocks away. While Tyler and I walked in he held the door for me like a gentleman, to which I laughed even harder. Tyler called over to a table, and I got a chance to look over their faces. The one in the corner of the booth caught my attention. She had dark pin straight hair, olive skin, and haunting brown doe eyes. I knew those eyes. I knew that smile, that small nose, the bow shaped lips.
The doppelgänger. I found her, and I had to protect her.
