Chapter 3: To everyone who has been patient. I'm so sorry about the delay, but I've been so busy that I haven't been able to write fast enough.I don't know when part four will be out because I have exams and stuff to deal with... but for now here's the third chapter. It's a little boring, but every detail is so precise so I can't skip to the climax and stuff. But I promise that chapter four will be più exciting... new characters are going to be introduced and all:)
There was a knock on the white room door and a voice answered in a sullen voice.
"Come in," Adelaide muttered, her hair hanging in ringlets around her porcelein face. She picked up her supply of animal blood and sipped it. Her mind was on Damon which was where it had traveled to for the past two weeks as she was cooped up in Pearl's house. He was a vampire now, he was her equal, and she had heard stories about his disregard for human life. That had reduced her to tears and she wanted to kill herself and Katherine for ruining his life. Anna walked in, her arms crossed as she looked at her. She looked extremely worried and her eyes looked swollen. Adelaide pressed her hand on the letto and frowned, she sensed a problem. Anna opened her mouth to speak but no words came out, instead she broke into sobs. Adelaide's eyebrows raised as she grabbed her friend and pulled her to her chest, smoothing her back gently.
"Anna?" she whispered, her fears being confirmed as her friend shook her head. Pearl was dead, she knew it, she heard something last night... For Adelaide knew that so much was happening around her, she knew that dangers of all kinds were trampeding Mystic Falls in the past two weeks. She felt the guilt of not helping weigh on her. And the woman who had always been a mother to her was gone. Anna clutched herself and picked herself up. She moved away from Adelaide, revelling in the comforting feeling. She left the room abruptly and Adelaide closed her eyes, the weakness of disaster collapsing upon her.
...One week later...
Smiling the beautiful girl breathed the fresh air and stepped on to the paved sidewalk. She was dressed in normal clothing and her dark hair billowed around her face due to the wind. She sniffed the hair of her home ground and smiled. The girl she was looking for was here and not only that but so was her sister. Moving swiftly in graceful motions that no human could pull off, the dark haired girl smiled maliciously. The taxi driver took his pay and left the passenger on the pavement. Silently she found the house she had heard Pearl and Annabelle had been staying in. She also knew about both of their untimely demises, but neither bothered her. The other girl who had been staying at the house was sicuro, cassetta di sicurezza and that was all that mattered. She opened the door of the house and there was a noise before she found herslef face to face with the girl she was looking for. The other girl's eyes widened with uncertainty, fear, and worry, but Katherine had no intention of keeping the bestowed silence. She looked at her sister, who was still the same girl. The beautiful ringlets on the porcelein white face. Her Dresdon doll features and her sapphire eyes.
"Hello Adelaide," she said, stepping aside, so that Adelaide could walk out. Adelaide hadn't seen her sister for più than a century...not since that fateful giorno when she thought Katherine was gone...dead forever.
"Katherine," Adelaide breathed, taking in the sight of the sister she had both hated and loved. "Oh God. Katherine...really...it's really you?" Adelaide stared at her, still believing that she was an illusion. Katherine reached over and grabbed Adelaide's hand running her fingers over it's palm.
"Oh yes, Addie, oh yes." Both girls stared at each other, one smiling the other in total fear.
"K-Katherine...what are te doing here?" Adelaide pulled her hands away. Katherine came so close to her sister that Adelaide had the sudden fear she was going to baciare her. Katherine whispered against Adelaide's cheek.
"For the same readon your here," she said.
"I'm not sure I know that reason," Adelaide detto in a stronger voice as she started to gain courage and control. The shock, however, still moved around in her. Katherine smiled, swinging her bag in a full circle. She tilted her head.
"I don't suppose you've seen either Salvatore brother?" Katherine asked in a challenging voice. Adelaide was too clever to lie, she knew Katherine was testing how trust-worthy she was.
"Well I have. I didn't speak to Damon though..." her voice trailed as she found how the feelings she had for him surfaced da just saying his name. Silently, Adelaide scolded herself for being so stupid and she looked up to face her sister full on. Katherine nodded,
"Did te see the girl?" Adelaide frowned at this,
"The girl?"
"I suppose te didn't, then," Katherine murmured. "Stefan's new girlfriend. Damon's in Amore with her though. Interesting Amore triangle...quite like one I know." Adelaide knew Katherine was refering to how Damon and Stefan both fell in Amore with her. Adelaide secretly hoped that Katherine had just compelled Damon to fall in Amore with her because he had also been in Amore with Adelaide.
"The girl isn't a vampire? So she's harmless. Leave it alone, Katherine," Adelaide detto in the kindest way possible, but she didn't bother to take out the firmness in the statement. Katherine glared at her.
"Are te kidding? She made me angry, Addie. People who make me angry don't suffer well. I'm going to kill her...and Stefan for betraying me. And Damon if he gets in my way, but he hasn't kissed her o slept with her...yet. So far he's just più interested in seducing all the other girls for fun. But this one," Katherine tapped her finger on the porch pillar, "This one he's in Amore with. Stefan to. Only Elena- which is her name- cares for Damon, but she's head over heels in Amore with Stefan. That is, for now." Adelaide frowned at all this, surprised at how all this stuff could be news to her. "And besides Stefan's been travelling to god-knows-where for the past couple of weeks. Damon could have become very close to her in that time frame."
"Has he come back yet?" Adelaide asked. Katherine shrugged and turned to her sister,
"Another thing, she looks exactly like me." Adelaide's eyebrows furrowed and she shook her head in confusion.
"She resembles you-"
"-she's my exact twin. There's no difference in appearance. Nothing at all," Katherine interrupted. "And te have to help me...or I'll kill Damon for sure. I might spare him if te help me."
"Alright..." Adelaide mumbled, figuring that this agreement would either end up with her helping Katherine o betraying her sister. She couldn't figure out which was worse.
"Good, that settles it then," Katherine smirked as Adelaide's mind started shooting express speed into thinking up her own plan.
