Vampire Diaries (Aria Gilbert )

Know Thy enemy

*Gilbert Residence,Isobel is at the door. She's looking at Elena and Aria. Jenna is stunned.*
Isobel: Hello, Elena and Aria. It's nice to see you two again.(Jenna looks at Elena and Aria)
Jenna: Again?(Elena doesn't know what to say.)
Aria:leave now.
Isobel: So you're the woman who's dating my husband. I need to speak to Elena and Aria. May I come in?
Elena: N-n-no. Don't...don't invite her in.
Isobel: I need to talk to you two, Elena and Aria.
Elena: No!
Aria: I said Leave!(She waves her hand and sends Isobel flying backwards then the door slams close.Elena looks at at in shock) what?
Elena:you just use your magic in front of Jenna!(they look over at Jenna and she looks shocked as this was her first time seeing Aria use her magic in front of her but Elena thinks it is because she didn't know.)
Jenna:uh...(she looks at Aria who signals her to acted like she didn't already know.)You knew she was still alive? Ric? John? Did they know?
Elena: I can explain everything, Jenna.
Jenna: No.
Elena: No. Jenna, please.(Jenna runs upstairs. Elena and Aria go after her.)Jenna, please. Wait. Jenna, please wait.(Jenna's goes into her bedroom and slams the door. Elena is outside, at the door and Aria is right behind her)
Elena: Jenna, you have to talk to me. I...I need to explain what's going on. Jenna, please.
Aria: How about we let her be,Elena. I think she might need some time by herself.(Elena sighs and leaves, Aria then knocks on the door) Jenna,Elena is gone.it's just me.(Jenna opens the door and Aria walks in) so...how are you?
Jenna: shocked,betrayed and angry at Elena for not wanting to tell me the truth about everything and I would have thought Ric would have told me already but...
Aria: I know but he wants to make sure Elena is ok with him telling you.
Jenna: right and by didn't you tell me that you and Elena have met with Isobel?
Aria: because I thought I wasn't going to see her again and Elena and me aren't really in talking terms with her,she's more of a mom who just shows up when she wants something.(Jenna nods) but remember don't let Elena know that you know.
Or she'll just make Damon compel you.
Jenna: She wouldn't—
Aria: Oh yes she would. Just act like this is the first time you know that Isobel is alive and that you know nothing about the supernatural.
Jenna: Alright,you should go before Elena sees that you're in here.
Aria: ok,oh and Elena might ask me to come up with a lie to tell you because you saw me so magic so...
Jenna: ok, I got it,one more thing, when are we letting Elena know that I know about...will everything.
Aria: let's wait until Elena tells you about everything and you can be like oh I already know.(Aria leaves)

*Salvatore Boarding House,Stefan and Damon are going down the stairs.*
Stefan: Isobel just showed up at their front doorstep.
Damon: What's she doing here?
Stefan: I don't know. That's what I'm gonna go find out.(Katherine joins them.)
Katherine: I don't think that you should tell her that I'm here.
Stefan: What? Why?
Katherine: It's better if she and John not know that I stayed in town after I got out of the tomb.
Damon: You're the one in cahoots with them. You made a deal with John that almost got me killed.
Katherine: I did what I had to get out of the tomb. Now I'm reconsidering my alliance.(She turns around but Stefan interrupts her.)
Stefan: What do you know?
Katherine: I know that I want Klaus dead, which puts me squarely on team you. Besides, if you two ever need me to swap places with Elena again, the less people know that I'm here, the better. Think about it, Stefan. Come on. Be smart.
Stefan: Tell you what. Why don't you, uh...Call Alaric and let him know that his wife just showed up on his girlfriend's doorstep.(He looks at them and leaves. Katherine and Damon look at each other.)

*Gilbert Residence,Elena opens the door to Alaric.*
Alaric: Hey. Is she up yet?
Elena: She won't come out of her room.
Alaric: What'd you tell her?
Elena: Nothing. She won't talk to me,
Alaric: We're gonna have to fix this, Elena.(Jenna comes down the stairs.)
Elena: Hey.
Alaric: Jenna.
Jenna: I don't want you here, Ric. You need to go.
Alaric: Okay, listen. I can't begin to imagine what you must be feeling right now.
Jenna: Rage and betrayal would pretty much cover it.(She puts on her jacket and takes her bag.)
Elena: Where are you going?
Jenna: I'm going to stay on campus. I have a thesis to write, and I don't want to be in this house.(she looks at Aria and then continues to walk towards the door)
Alaric: Jenna, please just stop. Let us explain to you exactly what is going on.
Jenna: Elena,Aria, I need you two to go to the Lockwood's today and accept the Historical Society's check for your mom's foundation.
Elena: Okay, but, Jenna, please just...
Jenna: I don't have it in me to hear any more lies from you.
Aria: please be ok jenna!(Jenna nods then leaves and closes the door.)
Elena: Jenna, just...(John comes out of the kitchen.)
John: Let her go. It's better that she's not here, what with everything that's going on but maybe had you been a little more honest with her from the beginning, this...(Alaric punches him in the face.)
Aria: Oh!Snap!
Alaric: Sorry, Elena.(He leaves. Elena looks at John with a smile.)
Elena: You know this is your fault, right?
John: Right.(Elena goes up stairs)
Aria: You know,you keep this up and one day you'll end up dead, permanently.
John: By you?
Aria: No, one of them.(She heads upstairs.)
