Raina Gilbert ( Vampire Diaries ) ON HOLD

Chapter Three: Season Two, Episode Fourteen: Crying Wolf.

Once Elijah had left that night, Raina found herself focusing more on the local werewolves. From what she herd from Damon about them she assumed they would know about the curse and want to act on it, which lead Raina to the Grill leaning against her car.

"Tyler Lockwood" she pushed off the car, a hint of a smirk on her lips as the teen's eyes widened at her. She pulled open the door and nodded towards it expectedly. Realising how still intact her reputation was once Tyler gulped thickly and climbed in all she can do is smirk fully as she rounds the car and slips in starts the engine and drove away from the Grill "I'll cut to the chase, I know what you are"

"W-what do you mean?"

"You're a werewolf, Tyler" she glanced towards him "and I also know that there's a pack of wolves around here somewhere causing problems"

"Look, I-"

"I'm not gunna hurt you. I'm just warning you. If any one of those wolves goes near Elena, I'll kill them. And they wouldn't be the first I've killed" she drove towards the woods making Tyler begin to panic "werewolves, vampires and witches. They're are the same. Cocky little shits who think they are the superior species and can do what they want, now. I am what you'd call a hunter, I hunt those of the supernatural world but I'm not a cold blooded killer, I don't kill those who do not deserve it. So, don't get on my list, Tyler. Once on my list, the only way of it is with your life, do I make myself clear?" She pulls to a stop on a dirt road looking at Tyler who stared at her afraid and wide eyed.

"Y-yeah"

"Good. Why don't you warn your new friends and be careful, Tyler" she stared into his dark eyes and he can see the worry in her lighter brown eyes "wolves like these, following some age old code of honour... they make their own rules and laws, unpredictable and untrusting. Make sure you get all details of what ever is going on before you help them, no go" Tyler studied her for a moment before climbing out of her sleek car and watched her drive away. Raina drove out of Mystic Falls heading for her families Lake House where she spent some time during her 'training' and grasps her phone calling a new number she had added recently.

"Hello?" Stefan's voice questions.

"Hello, Stefan" Raina greets calmly "how's Elena?"

"She's uh... she's okay. Having a moment. Being back in the house brings back memories. Is there a reason your calling or...?"

"I have a feeling that you haven't seen the last of these wolves. I did research last night, contacted some old friends of mine. The curse is known all over, everyone knows what the doppelgänger looks like, therefore-"

"They know they need Elena" Stefan sigh's.

"And Tyler has gotten close to them, its safe to say that he'll let slip who Elena is and I suspect something's going to happen. Just keep ear out for anything or anyone, okay? Call me if something happens, I know people in the area who owe me a favour" she lies smoothly.

"Yeah, thanks" the call ended and Raina rang a second number.

"Where are you?" Damon asks "I went to your room to invite you to an event and you were gone"

"I'm following a lead, going on a hunt. The last thing we need is for the wrong person to find Elena, trust me. I know what I'm doing, anyone who wants in with Klaus, they'll come looking for Elena and I'm going to leave my mark to make sure no one comes to Mystic Falls"

"Your mark?"

"I have quite the known mark, Damon. Just trust me on this one, okay? Have you seen John?" She smirks.

"Oh yeah. You left quite the mark on him" Damon sounds amused and she can just picture his smirk "which everyone enjoyed by the way, specially Alaric"

"Yeah, no one likes John. I just happen to be the only one who can get away with punching him. Gotta go, I'll see you later at home" she told and hung up on him sighing as she drives with one hand on the wheel, the other reaches for the radio playing her favourite music. The gentle tune of a piano plays and her muscles relax pushing sunglasses up her nose before sipping her coffee.
