It was a dark night, as Katherine Pierce arrived in New Orleans. She had recently been dying of old age, but had found a way to turn back into a vampiress.

A year ago, he had broken up with her, before leaving to go help Klaus with a witch. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAwpLocjzq2p
Shortly after, Rebekah had left. She was more than happy to be a vampire again, but she wasn’t 500 years old anymore. She was a new born. Also, a year ago, she had lost her daughter forever. She hated herself for not asking for the cure, because she couldn’t show her New Orleans. 400Please respect copyright.PENANASIQI6ZiL9Q

Half an hour later, she stood in front of the compound and knocked. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAoxUsSpkd8a
A moment later, Elijah Mikaelson opened the door. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAj7UW6XDGlv
“Katerina?” he questioned her. 400Please respect copyright.PENANA1GZrFZm8Vg
“Elijah. It’s been a while. May I come in?”400Please respect copyright.PENANAAcqjkRV9gy
“Most certainly, but what are you doing here? This isn’t the best of times.” 400Please respect copyright.PENANAO0h9ghwZw4
She walked inside and he closed the door. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAcuPOWhWMFG
She looked at him. 400Please respect copyright.PENANADahg9SIyFU
“I came to win you back, but I also came to help you. I heard what happened and I want to help.”400Please respect copyright.PENANA97T76w216A
“Very well then; you may stay, but be civil. Niklaus and Hayley aren’t in the best place right now. Hayley’s killing vampires every night and my brother’s in a dark place right now.” 400Please respect copyright.PENANAYBE3ID8k9N
“I promise I’ll behave myself.”400Please respect copyright.PENANA8FMTDbu5Wn
She headed upstairs to go find a guest bedroom to stay in.400Please respect copyright.PENANAxZln0ERyoX
Elijah watched her go.400Please respect copyright.PENANAN2myOcVaDB

The next day, she left the house to explore New Orleans on her own, while Elijah dealt with his brother and Hayley. He had filled her in on everything and she couldn’t help but sympathize with Klaus and Hayley. No wonder they were out of character. They just lost their daughter. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAzqF8S0JWhA

That night, on her way back, she was ambushed. She tried to overpower them, but she was a new vampire now. She didn’t stand a chance, no matter how much she fought. Then everything went black for her. 400Please respect copyright.PENANA0FROVkQm36

When she woke up, it was daylight and her Daylight ring was on the table beside the big window. She was tied to a chair with vervain ropes, which made her skin burn, smoke coming from her burnt skin. It hurt like hell, but she told herself that even though she was a young vampire again, she was still Katherine Pierce. Whatever those vampires wanted, they’d never get. She wasn’t one to give information out freely unless she felt generous or they were friends or someone she loved; like Elijah or Caroline. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAM5bjZ2pjY0
A guy walked into the room. 400Please respect copyright.PENANANg3PWpsGur
“Good morning. I’m Marcel. I just want to know who you are and why you’ve suddenly come to New Orleans.”400Please respect copyright.PENANAlWqNhcq4Tr
“I’m not telling you anything. Marcel, so you might want to let me go.”400Please respect copyright.PENANAaUibsyQHKD
“What’s your name?” he inquired. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAfjADtvW43A
“Go to hell. You want info? Ask the Originals and leave me out of it.”400Please respect copyright.PENANAdWx3p0aGM0
“No can do.”400Please respect copyright.PENANA9SJnUZcui7
She screamed in excruciating pain, when vervain was thrown on her. She growled with hatred towards Marcel. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAZgooNyVYgi
400Please respect copyright.PENANAM97oOHMtjY
400Please respect copyright.PENANA2Ae95U56Z5
Several hours later, the vamps by the door were killed with their hearts ripped out of their chests and Marcel saw Elijah. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAw971VVEKgY
“You have something of mine. I need her back. Leave now and no harm will come to you.”400Please respect copyright.PENANAzhRnesYzhQ
“Never.”400Please respect copyright.PENANACrJlBi7qOy
“Very well then.”400Please respect copyright.PENANA2C2sFvjKyS
At vamp speed, Marcel was temporarily killed, when Elijah snapped his neck. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAiAqEjnedGz
A moment later, the Original was in front of Katerina who had burnt skin all over, head down, eyes closed, and smoke still coming from the ropes. Wounds were all over her and she looked beyond weak and was very pale. Ignoring the pain from the ropes, he snapped them off her wrists, legs, and middle. He then gently put her Daylight ring back on her finger and gently picked her up in his arms, before vanishing. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAUBmIVZTSVd

400Please respect copyright.PENANAJFsZTctqBi
Once in his room, he gently layed her down on his bed. He then sat on her bedside and bit his wrist, putting it to her lips, making his blood go down her throat to save and heal her. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAqVwz1CB5cc
After a few minutes, her wounds and his wrist healed once he took it away. 400Please respect copyright.PENANA4B2TNR9eyk
He put his hand in hers and rested a gentle hand on the left side of her face. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAxfu53Ch6Nx
“I’m so sorry, Katerina. Forgive me. I should have been looking out for you.” 400Please respect copyright.PENANAnP2frAeQvv
He looked down at her and waited for her to come to. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAqLkUjoLj3n
400Please respect copyright.PENANAIWJ8PG7fxu
400Please respect copyright.PENANApdLqfZBIn4
When she came to, she was on Elijah’s bed with him seated on her bedside, hand in hers, which made her realize that he had saved her from Marcel’s torture. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7WYSNRmMY
“Thank you,” she said, looking up at him. 400Please respect copyright.PENANA0l2L4H9eWy
“You’re welcome, Katerina. Forgive me. I should’ve made sure you weren’t in danger.”400Please respect copyright.PENANAxhuADeXjMv
“It’s okay. It’s not your fault. I was the one spending a whole day in New Orleans. So where’s Hayley? I did say I wanted to help.”400Please respect copyright.PENANAhYcKZM5PNv
“She’s out on a killing spree again.”400Please respect copyright.PENANATPzv009tzP
“I’m going to go find her and help her. Don’t worry; I’ll be careful.”400Please respect copyright.PENANAfL9esLJYhQ
She got to her feet as did he and he helped her to her feet. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAcEY9zh16Fl
“Don’t be gone too long,” he said. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAw86ZNYHsaM
“I promise I’ll be back by sunrise if not sooner.”400Please respect copyright.PENANAbvApgBdY82
She kissed him on the cheek, before leaving. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAesrw2SaFmm

Half an hour later, she found the new hybrid. Bodies of vampires surrounded her. She reminded the vampiress of Elena when her humanity had been off. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAsBakoK5G7P
She came into view and Hayley gave a growl. 400Please respect copyright.PENANATXEzR603Mv
“Katherine.”400Please respect copyright.PENANAQpj1JlrroX
“Before you do anything you’ll regret, I came to help you both. I heard. I know how it feels to get your daughter taken from you one way or another, but you don’t need to go on a feast, killing vampires because of it. Even if they do deserve it. In 1490, Nadia was torn from my arms by my father just moments after she was born for being Illegitimate. I never saw her again until a year ago. Then she was taken from me for the last time when Tyler bit her. I felt so helpless, watching Nadia die, but I was scared of Klaus; too scared to ask him for the cure.” 400Please respect copyright.PENANAC1gjO1Jm4Z
Hayley realized she was telling the truth. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAW1tRTqW4jW
“You think you can help me?”400Please respect copyright.PENANAxvcaA9r7Ip
“Both of you, yes. The pain never goes away, but there are less violent ways to get it out of your system.” 400Please respect copyright.PENANAQafxKEse2b
400Please respect copyright.PENANA3bUqssfOaC
400Please respect copyright.PENANAQrc7FNeQuF
Half an hour later, they had arrived back at the compound. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAQkWsF4FERD
Hayley went to her room, while Kat located Klaus.400Please respect copyright.PENANAzhehyGaYb9
Kat soon found Klaus in his room painting. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAbGCjIcBLem
“Klaus?” she called to him, as she walked into the room. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAJG7dvFDfsB
“Katerina. What an unpleasant surprise,” he said, looking at her, as she walked in. 400Please respect copyright.PENANA8Gb1mTmN8G
“I came to help you,” she informed him. “I know how much you hate me, Klaus, but I want to help you. I heard what happened. Let me help you. Please.”400Please respect copyright.PENANAfHY1TgNQPE
“Why would I let you help me? You are the bane of my existence.”400Please respect copyright.PENANAalvT7x3y6A
“Because you need my help; I know you don’t want to admit that you need help or that you’re hurt one way or another, but I know what you’re going through. I once had a daughter too, but you never knew it because I didn’t want anyone to know about her, since it was such a painful time. She was torn from my arms just moments before I was born, because she was illegitimate. My father took her from my arms and I never got to see her. I don’t want that same thing to happen to anyone else. I’m sorry that you had to send her away with Rebekah. It’s painful losing your own child.”400Please respect copyright.PENANAaihH7UnM4o
“You had a daughter?” he questioned her. 400Please respect copyright.PENANAyk5450CS1V
“Yes. Nadia Petrova back in 1490 in Bulgaria before I even met you and Elijah. She found me a year ago, though. We rekindled our mother-daughter relationship, but Tyler bit her and I was too scared of what your answer would be to ask you to cure her. I had to watch her die, because I was too afraid of what you would do.”400Please respect copyright.PENANAlkvM0S3IoE
“I’m sorry for your loss. You’ve suffered enough throughout the centuries.”400Please respect copyright.PENANAD1muAqtdIo
“Yes. Now you know what it’s like to lose your daughter, though I would never wish it upon anyone; not even you yourself.”400Please respect copyright.PENANApgf8wIX6lj
“Tell me then, Katerina. How do you cope with it? Live with it?”400Please respect copyright.PENANA22XnPtZ8XE
“By taking one step at a time; it gets better as time goes on.”400Please respect copyright.PENANA4G9QJmaNyg

Later that night, Kat joined Elijah in their room. By now, they had decided to finally get back together, no matter what Klaus would say. So, Kat had succeeded in winning him back in the end. She was happy now, because of it. So, right now, they were on his bed having the time of their lives. Something they hadn’t had in centuries.
