Be Prepared

Hello fellow Vampire Diaries fans. I like to update as many of you as possible when there will be a hiatus in the filming of The Vampire Diaries. Before I let you know when to expect the break, let’s discuss the next few weeks episodes.

When “Masquerade” ended, Elena was kidnapped by a man in what appeared to be a court jester’s mask. If you’ll remember, this same individual stole a glance of Katherine as she entered the Lockwood mansion with Lucy. So, who exactly is this court jester and what does he or she have in store for our Mystic Falls heroine? Check out “Rose” this week to see just what’s going on. I have to admit I’m a little stumped with this storyline. My theory….Elena and Katherine are indeed blood, just not exactly sure how they are related. So, here’s my version of the story:

Katherine had a sister, they shared the same mother, just not the same father. Katherine was a bit of a lunatic in her younger years, mentally unstable and malicious. She was changed into a vampire before she ever had the ability to have children. Once changed, she allowed her insatiable desire to kill take control of her. She became judge and jury for all of those who had wronged her including her mother and in the end her sister. Here’s the kicker, her sister’s blood wasn’t totally mortal blood. Katherine’s sister was the product of a mortal human and one who has supernatural blood coursing through him. Her sister had a child before she was killed, one that was hidden from Katherine for quite some time. That child’s bloodline produced Elena, who herself holds a supernatural gift, one that hasn’t exactly been tapped into, one that has stayed dormant for a while. Elena herself holds the key to changing a vampire back into a mortal. Katherine knows this and has kept Elena alive until she can find exactly how to tap into this gift for her own self-serving agenda. Here’s the problem, over the years Katherine hasn’t been as careful as she thinks. She’s let this slip on a few minor occasions and now a few others out there know about Elena’s abilities and want that gift for themselves. Hence the reason for her kidnapping. I know, it’s a bit far-fetched and I haven’t exactly worked out all the logistics and stories yet, but it’s a start.

In the meantime, check out the preview for this week’s episode. And now that you’ve read my version of the story, here’s the schedule for the next couple of week’s as posted on The CW’s website:

November 4th – Episode 2.08 “Rose”

November 11th – Episode 2.09 “Katerina”

3 Week Break for Thanksgiving

November 18th – Repeat of “Bad Moon Rising”

November 25th – Repeat of “Kill Or Be Killed”

Back for 2 episodes before Holiday Hiatus

December 2nd – Episode 2.10 “The Sacrifice”

December 9th – Episode 2.11 (tentatively scheduled, no title as of yet)

And don’t forget the last episode before Christmas will show Tyler transform into a vampire. I guess that’s the next full moon? A little odd.

I’m interested to hear what the rest of you think about the Elena/Katherine storyline. Why is Elena always in peril?
