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. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAk1QzCvYruO

Half an hour later, she stood in front of the compound and knocked. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAgwLZnwn4Rj
A moment later, Elijah Mikaelson opened the door. 606Please respect copyright.PENANADf1HPsxyUT
“Katerina?” he questioned her. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAfGOxQTKElT
“Elijah. It’s been a while. May I come in?”606Please respect copyright.PENANALGfD85f4kC
“Most certainly, but what are you doing here? This isn’t the best of times.” 606Please respect copyright.PENANAA9WCwPAY0l
She walked inside and he closed the door. 606Please respect copyright.PENANA3C70iKylBT
She looked at him. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAWt1lqZsg6k
“I came to win you back, but I also came to help you. I heard what happened and I want to help.”606Please respect copyright.PENANAcOxI53WDMn
“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.” 606Please respect copyright.PENANAJ86f5sqPKQ
“I promise I’ll behave myself.”606Please respect copyright.PENANArJlDabau10
She headed upstairs to go find a guest bedroom to stay in.606Please respect copyright.PENANAmKFqLzGaIG
Elijah watched her go.606Please respect copyright.PENANA7lVl7vMcTw

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. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAAdnlvAH7jC

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. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAyhDkSCIjli

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. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAQVkJE5Pv0n
A guy walked into the room. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAwhqkrpFWiL
“Good morning. I’m Marcel. I just want to know who you are and why you’ve suddenly come to New Orleans.”606Please respect copyright.PENANAJwo6SQ1mCu
“I’m not telling you anything. Marcel, so you might want to let me go.”606Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5Lm5vWmNq
“What’s your name?” he inquired. 606Please respect copyright.PENANApDfdKJcPQG
“Go to hell. You want info? Ask the Originals and leave me out of it.”606Please respect copyright.PENANA6biG22uIEv
“No can do.”606Please respect copyright.PENANAzYKMikkezZ
She screamed in excruciating pain, when vervain was thrown on her. She growled with hatred towards Marcel. 606Please respect copyright.PENANA3BAD1FBjgr
606Please respect copyright.PENANALdID1RX1yr
606Please respect copyright.PENANAkNbCiBzs22
Several hours later, the vamps by the door were killed with their hearts ripped out of their chests and Marcel saw Elijah. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAt0as033nol
“You have something of mine. I need her back. Leave now and no harm will come to you.”606Please respect copyright.PENANArJgpVk75ef
“Never.”606Please respect copyright.PENANAvvtCcZ4Mz3
“Very well then.”606Please respect copyright.PENANANg0XefeWYt
At vamp speed, Marcel was temporarily killed, when Elijah snapped his neck. 606Please respect copyright.PENANA1FeWVlyzaH
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. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAdqVeFuP1fg

606Please respect copyright.PENANAKLmy4EzcXv
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. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAb6jAyHquHh
After a few minutes, her wounds and his wrist healed once he took it away. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAEy9BuY29Nh
He put his hand in hers and rested a gentle hand on the left side of her face. 606Please respect copyright.PENANADnpzoysa1G
“I’m so sorry, Katerina. Forgive me. I should have been looking out for you.” 606Please respect copyright.PENANApvqq3AEsja
He looked down at her and waited for her to come to. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAw8zk4qKnvs
606Please respect copyright.PENANAjLa2JWB4pX
606Please respect copyright.PENANAEm5plzMBVc
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. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAdOE2gI2BLd
“Thank you,” she said, looking up at him. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAxKe0evlDpE
“You’re welcome, Katerina. Forgive me. I should’ve made sure you weren’t in danger.”606Please respect copyright.PENANAbsdGRZZJDf
“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.”606Please respect copyright.PENANAjK4hEehFwv
“She’s out on a killing spree again.”606Please respect copyright.PENANAhO9ARV7Jbk
“I’m going to go find her and help her. Don’t worry; I’ll be careful.”606Please respect copyright.PENANAOR2Y7yRmvf
She got to her feet as did he and he helped her to her feet. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAX8D5Ht1M4a
“Don’t be gone too long,” he said. 606Please respect copyright.PENANARXKF644pHN
“I promise I’ll be back by sunrise if not sooner.”606Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8vGugQb83
She kissed him on the cheek, before leaving. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAzd72bIOA9h

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. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAdI7Jmu7yfz
She came into view and Hayley gave a growl. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAeBqkR5NVLB
“Katherine.”606Please respect copyright.PENANA6sB2EQdbQZ
“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.” 606Please respect copyright.PENANAJRwJ8nmIE3
Hayley realized she was telling the truth. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAAgwXKAovWp
“You think you can help me?”606Please respect copyright.PENANAy2nje7YppZ
“Both of you, yes. The pain never goes away, but there are less violent ways to get it out of your system.” 606Please respect copyright.PENANAd9U1FS0qgb
606Please respect copyright.PENANAwdomkfRil2
606Please respect copyright.PENANAiZozuJ9CxO
Half an hour later, they had arrived back at the compound. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAbAEV7DhL5J
Hayley went to her room, while Kat located Klaus.606Please respect copyright.PENANALSIKojOM2V
Kat soon found Klaus in his room painting. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAGTExRDp4df
“Klaus?” she called to him, as she walked into the room. 606Please respect copyright.PENANA4Z3UTcjC8g
“Katerina. What an unpleasant surprise,” he said, looking at her, as she walked in. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAYh0WKgJq8E
“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.”606Please respect copyright.PENANAl30gjytpKG
“Why would I let you help me? You are the bane of my existence.”606Please respect copyright.PENANA7wZCTkU7pI
“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.”606Please respect copyright.PENANAOLpsBkt4AQ
“You had a daughter?” he questioned her. 606Please respect copyright.PENANAiJy5CEuZE8
“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.”606Please respect copyright.PENANACeCTjOH9tE
“I’m sorry for your loss. You’ve suffered enough throughout the centuries.”606Please respect copyright.PENANAPEjMe7fYwR
“Yes. Now you know what it’s like to lose your daughter, though I would never wish it upon anyone; not even you yourself.”606Please respect copyright.PENANArjjZINIJkL
“Tell me then, Katerina. How do you cope with it? Live with it?”606Please respect copyright.PENANALe88S98LA6
“By taking one step at a time; it gets better as time goes on.”606Please respect copyright.PENANAuAWCce5LfR

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.
