Katherine felt ground underneath her as she came to, and then saw that wherever she was looked like Mystic Falls, but with no one populating it.704Please respect copyright.PENANAH2qyBI7cPg
"What the Hell?" She questioned.704Please respect copyright.PENANAtyljrs6eN8
There was a newspaper not far from her. She sat up and looked down at it at the date, which she read was April 22,1994.704Please respect copyright.PENANAoi99MO6CvU
She got to her feet and started walking, needing to know where she was. She knew she was dead and the Other Side had disintegrated, so why was she here? She needed answers and that's what she was going to get. She was Katherine and Katherine always got what she wanted, no matter what. It didn't matter if she was human or not.704Please respect copyright.PENANAvJMXbRBTLB

Once in the woods, she came upon something she recognized and knew what she had to do. She picked up the ascendant and set it up so it would work. Then, once there was an eclipse, she used magic to get transported out of there and to the real world.704Please respect copyright.PENANAtrR2KQajdC
A moment later, she found herself alive, human, and standing outside the Mikaelson family home in New Orleans.704Please respect copyright.PENANARuXEBnVBjV
She dropped the ascendant and walked inside to see everyone there, excluding her lover's elder brother, planning something, which she knew meant going to war. Elijah wasn't present, so she figured they were trying to get him back from an enemy. The only ones present were Klaus, Kol, Rebekah, Hayley, Marcel, Cami, Davina, and a child she guessed was the "miracle" baby she had heard about.704Please respect copyright.PENANAKsLSFfmELR
When she walked in, she was met with a glare from Hayley, mostly shocked faces from others that she was alive, and a smile from Klaus.704Please respect copyright.PENANAcx6FJHxqe8
"What brings you here, luv?" He asked her.704Please respect copyright.PENANA5TZK65Vb2y
"I'll tell you later. Right now, I want to know what's going on. You look like you're going to war and you're going to kill someone."704Please respect copyright.PENANAFddgFdTs2O
"Well, no use avoiding your curiosity. Esther and Mikael have been resurrected. So have Kol and Finn, but Finn's in a box. Esther has captured Elijah and thinks that making us witches will bring our family together again. I'm going to go get my brother, while they go after her werewolf body guards," he explained.704Please respect copyright.PENANAlA2GhOPwzq
"We're not going to kill them unless we have to. I don't want to kill my own people. Besides, it won't earn their trust or respect by killing my family," Hayley told her.704Please respect copyright.PENANA7r8j6IulKN
"That, I can agree on. Family is everything. Family sticks together as one," Katherine sympathized. "I'm coming with you," she added, looking at Klaus.704Please respect copyright.PENANAmHNPhatuf3
"No. I won't have you put in danger. Stay here and wait for me," Klaus ordered.704Please respect copyright.PENANAkniJgXKZxR
Before she could argue, he was gone, the others leaving as well. Then Cami headed home and Katherine was alone.704Please respect copyright.PENANAsl6ThnDQpg
Screw this. If I can't help with Esther, I can take care of Mikael, she thought, heading out, using her tracking skills and magic to find Mikael.704Please respect copyright.PENANAnOfnoGbM3S
704Please respect copyright.PENANAYi1PdWH1nl
704Please respect copyright.PENANA2kOn3EOkIo
An hour later, she found him in the woods. 704Please respect copyright.PENANASe09QshGrC
She used magic to throw him against a tree.704Please respect copyright.PENANAj4PRyDZtPd
"Well, well; if it isn't the runaway doppelgänger turned human again," Mikael greeted.704Please respect copyright.PENANAoBJGySDcpu
"Hello again, Mikael," she greeted back.704Please respect copyright.PENANAPb6sAyev51
She through him again, as she walked towards him.704Please respect copyright.PENANA5WPFFrOTyj
"We can do this the easy way or the hard way, but I'm going to destroy you. I won't let you kill Klaus and his siblings," she added.704Please respect copyright.PENANAJlrpBKIIPb
"What are you going to do about it?" Mikael inquired. "You're human and you don't even have this." He took out the White Oak stake. "You can't kill me if you don't have the right weapon." He smiled at her.704Please respect copyright.PENANARA7BykiROB
Soon, they were fighting head on. She put up a pretty good fight, but she lost.704Please respect copyright.PENANANH1IbFtCM3
704Please respect copyright.PENANAreaG65eUJp
704Please respect copyright.PENANAjf3vImakjl
Meanwhile, Klaus had rescued Elijah and was now looking everywhere for the love of his life.704Please respect copyright.PENANAVZeaTG7oG4
His phone rang.704Please respect copyright.PENANAfR19vT7yEZ
He stopped on a sidewalk and answered it.704Please respect copyright.PENANA8bB2PIOnuq
"I assume you're looking for your precious Katerina about now," Mikael said, before Klaus could say anything.704Please respect copyright.PENANAQNHEkoHshY
"If you harm her in any way, I will make you suffer. I will tear you apart, limb by limb. I give you my word," Klaus warned him.704Please respect copyright.PENANAWHtNVmLFuB
"Come alone. You better hurry, or you'll be too late. Let's face it; she's human now; easy to kill."704Please respect copyright.PENANAIO3AKl637P
Mikael hung up and Klaus gave a growl, before heading for the woods, making a guess of where they might be. Mikael had always loved the woods.704Please respect copyright.PENANAYMFdACfDev
704Please respect copyright.PENANAcxYEy3tctW
704Please respect copyright.PENANAxmPIvX6pJZ
Mikael had Katherine in an old house in the woods, tied to a chair with ropes, injured but still a fighter.704Please respect copyright.PENANABXNWSmOiLs
"You're going to pay when he gets here," she warned him.704Please respect copyright.PENANAtBsdNUvopf
"Oh, really? I don't think so. I have the White Oak stake and he doesn't. I'm much more powerful than even a hybrid; an abomination."704Please respect copyright.PENANA5X35xBjDCJ
"Strength always out weighs weapons," she said. "The mind is the best strength he'll ever have against you. You think you'll win, but you won't. The thing stronger than your hatred for him is his love for me. Love is always stronger than hate."704Please respect copyright.PENANAxeY02ZuteR
"Shut up," Mikael growled.704Please respect copyright.PENANAt3PMvm0EiU
"Go to hell," she replied.704Please respect copyright.PENANAsVs9l8jdoA
"You first," he replied back.704Please respect copyright.PENANA9g3kO66gD6
He stabbed her in the stomach.704Please respect copyright.PENANAHs8VIfDU9X
"Been there. Done that," she said through the pain.704Please respect copyright.PENANArm4UohImFY
He pulled the dagger out and let it drop to the floor.704Please respect copyright.PENANApe5D4zpZPL
A moment later, Klaus arrived.704Please respect copyright.PENANAvnUx55iWAZ
She watched them fight one on one and was glad when, with dim vision, she saw Klaus get the White Oak stake and pierce Mikael's heart with it.704Please respect copyright.PENANAbUDrEql54J
As Mikael lay on his back, dead, Klaus got to his feet.704Please respect copyright.PENANAKocO3TF29H
A moment later, he was in front of her, snapping the ropes.704Please respect copyright.PENANAOHrHU5n1Ne
Once finished, he rested gentle hands on either side of her face, keeping her head up.704Please respect copyright.PENANAml8O3eA8m8
"Katerina? Katerina. Can you hear me, Katerina?"704Please respect copyright.PENANAENx1EhFEdM
Not getting an answer, he bit his wrist, putting it to her lips, using one hand to keep her head up.704Please respect copyright.PENANAE15XGPo91I
"Come on Katerina; Drink."704Please respect copyright.PENANAaupdYAeQK9
Feeling the familiar liquid, she began to drink and, once her wounds were healed, she woke up a little.704Please respect copyright.PENANABfVjmaXykN
"Klaus," she whispered.704Please respect copyright.PENANArvKD3wCdfH
He gently picked her up in his arms.704Please respect copyright.PENANAk7esVCZpqL
"It's okay. I'm here. You're safe now, Katerina, luv."704Please respect copyright.PENANAMcAouAguxK
She wrapped her arms around his neck and closed her eyes.704Please respect copyright.PENANAqOYhnA10Qz
704Please respect copyright.PENANA5gAStS5oz8
704Please respect copyright.PENANAXVV5VRk8fC
Once home, he gently layed her down in his room on his bed and sat on her bedside, his hand in hers, looking down at her.704Please respect copyright.PENANAlOJP5ZWZHI
704Please respect copyright.PENANA64GVvwhgcc
704Please respect copyright.PENANAd19ZGZIrNZ
A few hours later, she woke up to see him on her bedside, looking down at her in worry.704Please respect copyright.PENANALqMJw32x5v
She smiled and rested a gentle hand on the left side of his face.704Please respect copyright.PENANA87W5udp6lf
"I'm okay. Don't worry. You saved me and defeated Mikael."704Please respect copyright.PENANA6B01bYLBMt
"How can I not worry? I almost lost you, Katerina."704Please respect copyright.PENANAmiPeMgOJGQ
"But you didn't. Live in the moment. Plot against your mother tomorrow."704Please respect copyright.PENANAZDXK664nIe
She gave him a kiss and then a smile.704Please respect copyright.PENANAslmtsifK1u
He smiled back.704Please respect copyright.PENANAmXKDTjph9a
"You're absolutely right."704Please respect copyright.PENANAFIwG01i8Dc
A moment later, they were kissing and taking clothes off, going to third base. And in that moment, they came back to each other.704Please respect copyright.PENANAx1KIev9T5P
704Please respect copyright.PENANA1LF9gdFZty
704Please respect copyright.PENANAh28py38rJJ
A few weeks later, Esther was dead and all was peaceful in both the Bayou and French Quarter. Witches were able to do magic again, the werewolves were allowed back in the French Quarter, and Rebekah and Hope were able to return home to Klaus, Hayley, Elijah, and Kol.704Please respect copyright.PENANAjXkVt8SlvG

A few months later, Katherine and Klaus had a little girl named Katherina Petrova Mikaelson, who was born a hybrid; half werewolf, half vampire, and half human.704Please respect copyright.PENANAG9RLKxkjYG
