Stepping into her bedroom was like going back in time for Athena. She couldn't believe how much she had changed since the last time she was in her room. Her eyes slowly took in the purple walls and the collage of pictures hanging over her bed, reflecting happier times. The teen hoped she'd be able to add more pictures to the wall now that she was back.
The girl placed her suitcase on her bed and began to unpack the few items she had brought with her. Among these items was her sketch book and most prized possession. Much like her brother she had a knack for the arts. During her time at rehab Athena was encouraged to use art as a way to get her emotions out. Drawing had soon became less of a hobby and more of a therapeutic tool for her.
Athena had barely finished unpacking her suitcase when she heard yelling coming from across the hall. She had no idea what was going on but she wasn't expecting to exit her room and come face to face with her sister clutching a knife in her right hand.
"What the fuck?" Athena gasped flinching back into the doorway.
Elena's eyes widened upon seeing her younger sister. The Gilbert girl was on edge thinking that it was Katherine who exited the room which is why she had the knife raised and ready to attack.
"Oh my god! Athena!" The brunette immediately lowered the knife. "What are you doing?"
"What am I doing? What are you doing?" Athena shot back looking at Elena like she was crazy. "Why are you holding a knife? And why were you yelling?"
The older girl didn't know how to tell her sister that a vampire that looks exactly like her was roaming around their house after stabbing their uncle and that their younger brother was also in danger.
"I thought I heard something." She mumbled turning to look over her shoulder towards the stairwell. "I came to see if it was Jeremy."
"I thought you said Jeremy was out with his girlfriend?" Athena questioned confused. As she looked at her sister she couldn't help but notice that Elena was wearing a completely different outfit than the one she had seen her in less than ten minutes ago.
"Oh um yeah. Sorry." She shook her head. Elena knew that Katherine must have talked to her sister before attacking John. She was confused as to why the doppelgänger hadn't harmed her sister as well seeing as Katherine wasn't above hurting innocent people. "It must have slipped my mind with everything going on."
"What's going on? I know you said about there being a fire but what else happened?"
"John was just attacked. That's why I was searching the house."
"Attacked? Who the hell attacked him?"
"I don't know but they're gone now." Elena sighed.
"Weren't you downstairs with him? Did you see anything?" Athena wasn't too upset about John being attacked seeing as she could care less for the man but she was concerned about someone entering their house. What if the person had attacked her, Elena, Jenna, or Jeremy?
