Rose led the way into the parlor, Elijah spotted the doppelgänger across the room. He vamp sped over to her, she was clearly frightened. I watched as he leaned in, almost like he was going to kiss her, and smelled her neck.

"Human. It's impossible. Hello there."

I bit back a snicker, that wasn't creepy at all. It was clear my father was showing his dominance to everyone in the room. He was also instilling a healthy amount of fear in the doppelgänger, he was clearly of the mind that fear instills respect, and he demanded respect.

Elijah looked down at the doppelgänger with a half little smile. "We have a long journey head of us. We should be going."

"Please, don't let him take me." The doppelgänger begged Rose. (I seriously was going to drag her name out of Damon. No more helping my ex-husband unless I knew names.)

Elijah looked down at the doppelgänger and said, "One last piece of business and we're done."

He turned and walked over to Trevor who spoke up "I've waited so long for this day, Elijah. I'm truly, very sorry."

Elijah slowly circled Trevor who didn't move. "Oh no, your apology's not necessary."

"Yes, yes it is. You trusted me with Katerina and I failed you." Trevor stated anxiously.

Elijah stopped in front of and looked Trevor in the eyes, "Oh yes, you are the guilty one and Rose aided you because she was loyal to you and that now I honor. Where was your loyalty?"

"I beg your forgiveness." Trevor said urgently.

Elijah stated calmly, "So granted."

Trevor started to smiles but Elijah raised his hand and effortlessly slapped Trevor's head clean off his body. Rose cried out in anguish, the doppelgänger gasped in horror. I winced, that was one of the more merciful ways I had seen someone killed over the years, my mother was much more creative, but it was still gruesome.

"You!" Rose started to accuse Elijah angrily stepping forward.

"Don't! Rose." Elijah stopped her. "Now that you are free."

Rose took a step back crying sobs of anguish. She clutched the staircase, obviously wanting to jump my father. Her sense of self-preservation kicked in stopping her from doing songs stupid.

Elijah took a step towards the doppelgänger and held out his hand. "Come."

"No, what about the moonstone?" The doppelgänger spoke.

I observed confused. How did she know about that?

My father looked down at her and asked, "What do you know about the moonstone?"

"I know that you need it and I know where it is."

"Yes?"

"I can help you get it."

"Tell me where it is." My father demanded.

"It doesn't work that way." The doppelgänger tried to negotiate.

"Are you negotiating with me?" Elijah asked in disbelief. He looked over at Rose appraisingly.

"It's the first I've heard of it." Rose stopped her sobbing making an effort to sound strong and convincing.

My father tried to compel the doppelgänger and when it didn't work he studied her. Quickly he reached out and yanked her necklace off, "What is this vervain doing around your neck?"

Then he compelled her, "Tell me where the moonstone is."

The doppelgänger helplessly replied, "In the tomb, underneath the church ruins."

"What is it doing there?" Elijah asked her, still compelling her.

"It's with Katherine."

I bit back a growl. My ex-husband was holding things back from me. He didn't tell me he knew where Katherine was. Just why was she in the tomb anyway? I had heard that all the vampires that were in the tomb had escaped it, and I was fairly sure she hadn't spent all this time in the tomb to begin with.

Just as I processing this there came a sound of glass breaking upstairs. I let out a little sigh, finally the Calvary had arrived. I was relieved, I was unsure of what I would have done, know my ex-husband wanted me to protect the doppelgänger while I knew my loyalty was for my father.

"Who else is in this house?" My father question Rose.

"I don't know."

I held my breath, so far I had been unnoticed but something could go wrong at any moment. Now would not be the opportune time for him to realize that I was there, I would have no chance of giving an explanation before my ex-husband and his brother did something stupid.

Elijah grabbed the doppelgänger's arm and roughly shoved her towards Rose. He pushed both of them up the stairs and into the hall. I followed but stayed in the doorway, when all of a sudden something or should I say someone collided with me. I fell back and hit my head, causing my disillusionment spell to end, just out of sight of those in the hallway.

I blinked dizzily and saw Damon leaning over me, "Sorry, Stella." He whispers. "Didn't know you were there." He picked me up and laid me down on the same couch the doppelgänger was sitting on earlier. That was the last thing I knew before I passed out.
