Warning: this is a very old, rushed story.
The story of the other gilbert doppelganger; Ariana. Ariana is the blind Gilbert, what struggles will she face entering the supernatural world and more importantly, what will occur when she captures a cert...
Ariana woke up incredibly disorientated, with a heavy head and confusion in her mind, she had absolutely no idea where she was or how she got there but It soon dawned on her.. She was in the truck of Matthew Donovan, the boy was driving furiously and beside her was her identical twin sister who looked incredibly panicked. It was much easier for Ariana now, to be involved in this world of vampires as she was able to be her own independent person.
"It's the only way I was going to get you guys in this truck." he stated, his voice was sad and dripping with guilt but she knew, hidden within him was courage... he was proud that he had kidnapped them and given them a chance of survival, even if he pretended not to be now.
"The tea" Elena acknowledged and Ariana was shocked as the dots connected in her head. She hadn't even drank it... But Elena had and the two of them were connected. Where Elena went, Ariana went and that is what led her to being kidnapped by one of her old best friends. "You drugged us?!" she was mortified by the thought.
"I'm sorry, Elena.. Ariana" he replied as he side glanced at them. The entire situation was completely disastrous and all the younger twin wanted to do was be with Klaus, even if he was partially dead in a coffin, at least then she would know he was okay. At least then he would be alive and she could ensure that. She just couldn't trust the people who had once been her best friends to not sell him out for their own gain. "You're right, okay? You don't have any parents to tell you what's right or wrong."
"That doesn't give you the right to decide on that for us Matt!" Ariana growled angrily, completely going against her nature of being innocent and forgiving, they presumed it was to do with the link between Elena and Ariana, more than just the ability to see had leaked across in the spell.
"You've got me and Jeremy and a bunch of vampires fighting a war you shouldn't be in the middle of."
"It's too late for that Matty" Ariana anger was subsiding slightly and she was returning to her previous, level headed self. "We are already caught up in the middle of it and no amount of drugging and kidnapping is going to change that. We cant run away from our problems because they will just follow us. "
"What the hell is going on, Matt?" Elena wondered, still as angry as before. She was beginning to understand that conspiracies had been taking place behind their backs and they weren't there for it. They needed to know the truth because not knowing was even worse.
"I'm getting you both out of town, okay, Elena?" he was annoyed then that they wouldn't just go along with his plan. "It's the only way to keep you safe."

Ariana sat within the car as it drove, silent now and still fuming when all of a sudden, it was as though her heart had been ripped from her chest and she yelped, clutching it and a sob broke through.
"Ariana?" Matt questioned with wide eyes, looking across at Elena who sat still, not having felt it herself. Which was peculiar in itself. "What?... What's wrong?"
"Something's happened" she sobbed, her heart felt like it was struggling to beat, like a part of itself was missing and her body ached under the intense feeling and she knew. something positively horrific had happened... Something had happened to Klaus and as she clutched her chest and sobbed, she couldn't help but wonder, hauntingly, if he had met his inevitable end. The realisation was agonising. "He's" she sobbed "He's gone" she couldn't feel him anymore as she unconsciously had before, he was gone and it shattered her. Elena hugged her tightly with wide eyes, understanding wholeheartedly what her sobbing sister was trying to say.
And as selfish as she was for it... All she could think about in that moment was Damon and Stefan. With a single phone call, all of Ariana's suspicions were confirmed but oddly... Deep down, she had a spark of hope and she couldn't understand it.
"We have to go back." Elena demanded and Ariana closed her eyes tightly, thinking about all the others that would now be lost. As if losing Klaus wasn't enough, Tyler, Caroline and the Salvatore's were now going to leave them too and for the first time in a long time, she had the desire to run and hug Damon Salvatore. Everything he did, albeit being detrimental to Ariana, was for Elena, the woman he loved. "Listen to me, Matt. If Klaus is the one that turned their bloodline-" Ariana flinched at the sound of his name, silent tears streaming her cheeks like rainfall as she thought of his face which she had only been able to see once. They were going to leave together and start a better life... Now they never would.
"Then they're all going to die." she informed him and he looked to be thinking. "We have to go back, Matt!" she hollered and Ariana felt her anger, it was burning.
"Elena.." he began
"What?" the girl snapped.
"Damon's not with them." he informed with teary eyes as he looked over at her.
"what?" she wondered. Ariana sat up straighter, knowing now the inevitable outcome of what Matt was trying to say. Elena had to make the ultimate choice now.
"He's a hundred miles out of town" the boy informed, "I can keep driving to him, or I can turn around and go back to Stefan" Matt let her know, tears in his eyes as he knew what he was asking her to do. She had to let one of them go, it was time for her to decide. "It's your choice."
