A hundred years before she would have found herself in the same place. Standing where she once stood with her parents, her brother, her aunt and uncle—they had stood before their home, then. The Gilbert House had been a home to more than just her family, and even to this day she regretted ever lighting that match. It was strange, for as the days bore on, sometimes she could recall that night in vivid detail, but at other times she could barely remember. All that stood there now was rubble from a house built after the original had burnt to the ground. It held no memories of her or her family, but the area still held a part of her heart, even now.

Mystic Falls was a wasteland, as was the rest of the world. She hadn't been the only thing to change since leaving the quaint town, for the whole world had spiraled into chaos at one point. Now barely any life remained, and any that did was... different. Elena didn't recognize the Earth anymore, for every time she woke in the morning, she felt as though she were on a different planet, far from where she had grown up as a human girl. 

Humans, she thought almost wistfully, turning from the rubble that lay before her to continue her way down the beaten path. Jeremy had long since past, as well as Bonnie and any friends she had made along the way as a doctor. Humans were a rare species, unfortunately for her, for both company and food. Animals had been her main source of blood for a long while now due to the rarity of the human species, and despite the bitter taste, she had gotten used to it. She could remember Stefan, then, and for a moment she though maybe he'd be proud.

She had not seen the Salvatore's in some time. She had parted from the pair many decades before, but had kept in touch in her travels. During the war, she had served as a paramedic for the and wounded humans wherever she was needed. She had lost contact with the brothers then, and with the world now in a post-apocalyptic age, she didn't know if she'd ever speak with the brothers again. Maybe that was why she had returned to Mystic Falls—perhaps absentmindedly, she hoped one of her friends would make their presence known in the ruins of their former town. She didn't even know where Caroline was, and that made her heart clench. Who knew if any of her friends were even alive? Pushing the thought away for the moment, Elena continued along the path, heading towards the ruins of Town Square.
