Ariana lay beside Elena on her bed, they had put all angers and disappointments about one another to one side and were currently just enjoying one another's presence. The blind Gilbert had not heard anything from Klaus in a week and it was driving her insane though they certainly had larger issues, Alaric had a mass murdering alter ego and neither knew what to do or say about the situation, resigning to just sit and do nothing, too tired to move.

"You are upset" Elena unnecessarily stated as she turned to her sister, the pair were side by side on the bed, replaying the events of the previous night in their minds over and over, Meredith had been stabbed by Evil Alaric and they were beginning to understand just how unsafe it was for them to be close to their guardian at this time.

"He hasn't spoken to me all week" Elena clearly knew who 'he' was and sighed, wrapping an arm around the girl who was identical to her, they lay in silence once more for a long moment.

"Do you know why?" The seeing Gilbert suddenly wondered, it was curious and she could not understand it, although she did not like Klaus, he had always been perfectly kind to Ariana, never treating her horribly as he did with others.

"We kissed"

"I doubt that's why he'd ignoring you Ari" Elena attempted to calm after a period of shocked pause, she did not know how to feel about her sister being with Klaus, he had after all tried to kill everyone she knew about but selfishly, Elena thought that if Ariana was close to Klaus, he would leave the others all alone, he may even begin to use Ari's blood to make hybrids instead of insisting on Elena's. As if sensing her thoughts, Ariana wondered...

"Do you think he is using me for my blood?"

"I know I complain about him a lot and claim him to be evil Ari but I don't think he would do this, it just does not sit right. He absolutely adores you, he treats you differently to everyone else I have seen him interact with. " Elena informed her and snapped her eyes closed, feeling guilt eat her from the inside for soon it would not matter what Klaus thought of Ariana, they had created white oak stakes from the sign of the bridge and intended to kill the originals. All they had to do was kill one to get them all, they were all still linked together after all.

"Do you think I should call him? I mean... I was waiting for him to call me but maybe I should be the first?" she babbled on, only now thinking that maybe they had the exact same thoughts.

"Yeah, you should call him Ari" Elena concluded, hugging her sister tightly, knowing that at some point her sister was going to hate her for what they had planned. She knew her sister needed to have the opportunity to have at least one more conversation with the immortal hybrid.

"Okay" the girl nodded along, allowing Elena to phone Klaus for her from her cellphone, the blind girl held the device to her ear and listened to the ring until it was answered.

"Ah, Elena" he stated, growling into the phone and Ariana frowned, instantly confused as to what she had done to upset the hybrid.

"Wrong Gilbert" she giggled back, hoping his tone would improve once he knew he was speaking to her. It did not. "Are you okay? What's wrong?"

"As if you don't already know!" he yelled down the phone and she flinched violently, her chest becoming tight and tears beginning to collect in her dazed eyes, growing heavier and heavier by the second, threatening to fall down her porcelain cheeks.

"W-what?"

"Oh spare me the act Ariana!" he seethed "What was I to you? Was I just all part of the plan?!" he yelled angrily and she flinched once more, a concerned hand of Elena placing on her shoulder.

"What do you mean? What plan?" she sobbed out.

"The plan to get me killed" he scoffed at her, utterly disbelieving that she knew nothing of it. "Or do you mean to tell me that you were stupid enough not to notice your sister creating white oak stakes to kill me with right under your nose." he chuckled out, she could just imagine how angry he must be and it fueled through into her.

"What?" her voice was just a whisper. "Elena" she stated, not taking the phone from her ear, just moving out of the touch of her sister who reached for her in worry. "What did you do?" her voice was low still.

"What do you mean Ari?" Elena stood, stepping close to her sister once more but hearing her footsteps, Ariana stepped back also, her breathing was increasing.

"What. Did. You. do!" she screamed suddenly and everyone in the conversation was shocked, Ariana was not at all an angry person, they had never heard her sound so angry in her entire life.

"Ariana I can explain" Elena attempted, taking her sisters hand gently in her own.

"Don't bother!" she decided. "I am done Elena, I am done with having you all walk all over me! Of having you all pretend to care whilst you do things like this. You tried to kill him Elena! And you just sat there a moment ago pretending like a real sister, like a girl who cared about her twin but you never have, have you? I am done, I am calling Dr Greene in the morning about this operation and I am taking the money I was left and the money I collected and I am going to get my eyes fixed Elena!" she yelled. "Maybe then you'll stop seeing me as the weak one, this could have just as easily been you." she stated and walked out of the door, sobbing into her hand.

"Ariana love?" she heard faintly and remembered the phone in her hand, pulling it to her ear once more. "I am so sorry my love, I was so angry, they killed Finn, they killed my brother" Klaus informed, hiccupping slightly though not crying.

"I know, it's okay" her voice was low. "Can you come and get me?" she whispered sounding absolutely broken.

"Of course my love, I will be there in ten" he promised and the line cut off, leaving the doppelganger to sigh, drag her hand through her hair and move to stand outside on the porch, waiting for the hybrid to collect her, feeling a breeze on her face and knowing the sun was setting but not being able to see it.
