GILBERT HOUSE

Elena opens her bedroom door and jumps in fright seeing a blonde woman on the other side; Isla.

Isla eyes the doppelganger up and down, tilting her head and purrs

Isla(whispers): Mate.

Elena: Who are you? How did you get in my house?

Isla: Oh your lovely aunt invited me in. I'm Isla, one of Elijah's witches

Elena: You work for Elijah?

Isla walks into the bedroom and closes the door. She looks around the room, smiling at the pictures of Elena

Isla: You are a timeless beauty, darling.

Elena blushes tucking her hair behind her ears

Elena: What do you want?

Isla: It's time we had a little chat, darling

She takes off her high heels and places them beside the bed, sitting down and pats the spot beside her. Elena nervously sits down beside with her.

Elena: Why are you here?

Isla: Because I don't want you to be taken. Klaus is the most feared and hated of the Originals, but those that fear him are desperate for his approval. If word gets out that the doppelgänger exists, there'll be a line of vampires eager to take you to him and I can't have that.

Elena: Isn't that exactly what you're trying to do?

Isla: He thinks that he should always get what he wants and he needs to be taught a lesson.

Elena: So, what is your goal?

Isla: Klaus' obsession has made him paranoid. He's a recluse. He trusts only those in his immediate circle.

Elena: Like you?

Isla: Goodness no, not in centuries.

Elena: You don't know where he is, do you? So you're trying to use me to draw him out.

Isla: Well, to do that I need you to stay put and stop trying to get yourself killed.

Elena: How do I know you're telling the truth?

Isla hooks her finger under her chin lifting her head up to stare into her eyes

Isla: Look into my eyes and tell me am I lying?

Elena shakes her head.

Isla: Live your life with your friends and family. When the time comes, we shall end Klaus together.

Elena: Then what?

Isla: I kill him.

Elena: Just like that?

Isla: I'm a woman of my word, darling. I make a promise, I keep it.

Elena: How are you gonna be able to keep everybody safe?

Isla: I notice you have a friend; Bonnie, is it? She seems to possess the gift of magic. I too have friends who possess magic

She raises her hand and a picture frame comes flying across the room into her hand, Elena squeals

Elena: You're a witch too? I thought----

Isla: Nature, darling. Do we have a deal?

Elena: One more thing

Isla: Anything for you, darling.

ISLA'S MANSION

Isla walks into her newly build mansion and slings off her jacket, she walks into the parlor and pours herself a drink

Isla: I know you're there, Elijah

Elijah walks out of the shadows as Isla sits down on the couch taking a sip of her drink

Elijah: I see you met the doppelganger.

Isla: Pretty little thing she is.

Elijah: I see you made a deal with her.

Isla: She does nothing. Lives her life and I protect her loved ones until Niklaus comes. In return I protect her friends and family.

Elijah: Are you really willing to kill him? You once loved him, Isla

Isla: Once. I once loved him until he went behind my back and made that golden dagger so he could run around with his whores or when he grew bored of me.

She downs her drink and stands up

Isla: Have a nice night, Elijah. The fun's about to begin
