Summary: After the explosions in the Bayou, they find out that Kat was there and that she's hurt and human. Can they save her life? Why is she in New Orleans?
It was a beautiful day in the Bayou, as explosions went off. Then, when they stopped, they knew the explosions were filled with wolfsbane. A few wolves were dead and a few had been wolfsbaned.572Please respect copyright.PENANA18ACCcnZWO
When Elijah was helping Even away from the trailer home that had been flipped during on of the explosions, he smelled an all too familiar scent mixed with the smell of blood.572Please respect copyright.PENANAXMoWLFFi4M
"Katerina."572Please respect copyright.PENANAsgcUp1hv8v
He was instantly by the trailer home door, trying to get it to open to help her.572Please respect copyright.PENANAVOS4n5LdMq
"I'll take care of Katherine. Go help Even with the wolves. I'll let you know if I need you to help with her," Hayley told him, standing in front of him, looking at him.572Please respect copyright.PENANApruoEjIYhO
He did as she said to do, while Hayley found a gap big enough for her to go inside to help her.
Once inside, it wasn't hard to find her.572Please respect copyright.PENANAmI1bziWyqG
She knelt by her head and felt for a pulse. Amazingly, she was still alive.572Please respect copyright.PENANAKd18G3rvVi
She took her fingers away from the right side of her neck.572Please respect copyright.PENANAf7tWC0lyzQ
She looked at her and around the area. She had to be careful so that the whole thing didn't collapse on them both. There was wood barely holding up what was now the roof, but had been the floor before the explosions. To top if off, Katherine was human and injured. A long piece of wood was protruding from her left side, not far from her abdomen. Her right side had a long, deep gash. There was blood on either side of her head and a heavy pile of wood was weighing down on the lower half of the human.572Please respect copyright.PENANAITh9cMZPOp
Hayley got to her feet and used her werewolf strength to get the pile off her.572Please respect copyright.PENANAgLuDeqUy1V
Afterward, she put her arms under hers and carefully drug her out of there.
Once she had gently layed her down a ways away from it, she saw how much blood she had lost.572Please respect copyright.PENANAa9KMAUMjQ2
"Jackson," she called.572Please respect copyright.PENANA0OnI9REdxw
Jackson came and knelt by Hayley.572Please respect copyright.PENANAqhT7AjmB9Q
She took her jack off.572Please respect copyright.PENANAs7CWpPJ3Ip
"I need you to use this to apply pressure. I'm going to pull the wood out."572Please respect copyright.PENANAKKKN3dCSMu
She did just that and he used Hayley's jacket to apply pressure to both wounds. She couldn't let her lose any more blood.572Please respect copyright.PENANADz6DbO9F55
"Elijah," Hayley called.572Please respect copyright.PENANAixecLIExb6
He was instantly knelt at his Katerina's left side. He knew why he was needed, so he bit his wrist. He put it to her lips, making his blood go down her throat to heal her and save her life.572Please respect copyright.PENANAcGJCfixhCc
After her wounds had healed, he took his wrist away, which instantly healed.572Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7KSEclmkE
Jackson set the jacket on the ground and went to help the wolves.572Please respect copyright.PENANAbJVmMByVSf
"I'll take her to the compound," Elijah informed her.572Please respect copyright.PENANAdYN09Ib9hc
"Let me," she replied.572Please respect copyright.PENANAAnv6Ye1yiN
"Very well then."
When she parked outside the compound, Klaus was there.572Please respect copyright.PENANAevF4W194kE
She got out and opened the passenger's side door where the human was still out.572Please respect copyright.PENANA86jEkyapol
"What is the meaning of this, Little Wolf? What is she doing here?" Klaus growled, as he stood in front of her.572Please respect copyright.PENANAAr9VqXhGSq
She explained everything to him and then added, "Don't kill her yet. Elijah had to give her his blood and I don't think you want her to be a vampire again. Besides, Elijah would probably hate you if you killed her."572Please respect copyright.PENANAF7moejZemG
Klaus didn't say anything about that, but he did say, "I'll take her to her room." He then gently picked her up and vanished upstairs, carrying her to Elijah's room. He figured that that was where Elijah would want her to be.
One in his elder brother's room, he gently layed her down on the bed.
When she woke up, she saw where she was and who was seated on her bedside.572Please respect copyright.PENANA3WyCznikmf
She smiled.572Please respect copyright.PENANADGfkU5jxmz
"It's good to see you again."572Please respect copyright.PENANAItbSmeZcqj
"Why are you here, Katerina? You could've been killed," Elijah replied.572Please respect copyright.PENANAl8dXcu3pCP
She sat up and then told him all that had happened to her, before assuring him that she was cured of dying of old age. She then told him, "I came back for you. You were right that day. I've lost everything good I ever had. I've decided to prove you right. I can be saved. I'm the same girl you have always loved, but I'm broken. I know that you alone can help me."572Please respect copyright.PENANAewE3uFjrqc
They smiled at each other.572Please respect copyright.PENANAVju5rwcK5D
"Then I'll save you," he promised her. "No matter what the cost. You'll always be my precious, beautiful Katerina."572Please respect copyright.PENANAe6gfowYm2s
A moment later, they were kissing.
