I look down at Kat, standing at her bedside, and trail the back of my hand gently down the side of her face. I hope that she won't die on me. She's my sire and I have, and will always care deeply about her. She can't die on me. Not now. Not ever. I won't let it happen. I'll die before I'll let anything happen to her. I stifle a growl as I think about it. She wouldn't be in this position if it hadn't been for Klaus. If only Klaus hadn't killed Elena. But I gave Elena my blood. She'll come back. But if she comes back as a vampire or in transition to become a vampire, I will stake her myself. That I vow. And I never ever take back my promises and vows. I never have and I won't start now. If Katherine dies by the clutches or hands of Klaus, I will personally kill him myself, or die trying to kill him, no matter what the consequences are. That's how much I care about her.395Please respect copyright.PENANA09z9muiTPp
Just then, my cell phone vibrates and I take it out. It's Bonnie.395Please respect copyright.PENANAiRZUVx8uw0
I answer it.395Please respect copyright.PENANA4o3pU9K8Qr
"Tell me you have something for me."395Please respect copyright.PENANAbLPe1I2dgj
"They were really mad, but I heard a name. Klaus."395Please respect copyright.PENANADLvsTyX7Xc
"Thanks, Bonnie."395Please respect copyright.PENANAeRgZGnrowT
I hang up.395Please respect copyright.PENANAIcuI75KQxT
I bend down and kiss her forehead before leaving the room.395Please respect copyright.PENANABNNicsqqnv
Elena is just coming over to my room.395Please respect copyright.PENANAiyfUPCCRZE
"Elena, stay with Katherine. Klaus bit her. She's dying. Bonnie just told me that she heard Klaus' name amongst the witches. I have to go do something."395Please respect copyright.PENANARsWnzg34nk
"Be careful, Damon."395Please respect copyright.PENANA0s5CMN5jiA
"I'll try."395Please respect copyright.PENANAr1zLXEI9ZQ
"And Damon, don't do anything stupid."395Please respect copyright.PENANA845CtXnwDp
I give her a smile, before vanishing down the stairs and out of the house.395Please respect copyright.PENANALP3ouk9U7g

An hour later, I stand with Rebekah, Klaus' sister, in a dark alley.395Please respect copyright.PENANA2FqQLgBC0Z
"Your brother seems to have bitten Katherine. I know you hate her, but she's my sire. My family. You have to help me."395Please respect copyright.PENANAsJ7kQn3URl
"What do you want me to do?"395Please respect copyright.PENANA5XSlpY5lOu
"Get me Klaus' blood. Just one or two vials of it."395Please respect copyright.PENANAsRjAj7BQn9
"Very well then. You do know I'm only doing this because it's for you and it's a family matter, right?"395Please respect copyright.PENANAxihGIuIj0Q
"I get that, Rebekah. Now please go. And do hurry."395Please respect copyright.PENANAUXAOo7qMzj
I watch her leave the alley at vamp speed. I only hope we won't be too late to save her life.
