It was a dark night in New Orleans in the French Quarter, as Katherine Pierce, newly turned human, came upon the Mikealson family compound, limping. She had come from Mystic Falls after causing a car accident, when she and Jeremy had fought over the wheel. She only hoped they understood her need to survive. It was her instinct. Because of that crash, she was badly injured and had lost a lot of blood. She could tell, due to having to fight to stay awake.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0Ve7tLCGY
Once in front of the door, she knocked and then waited for someone to open it. And someone did.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiyzwkUqVk
“Well, well; If it isn’t Katherine Pierce, apparently human due to the cure. What do you need?” Kol greeted.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgwZK504E4
“I need help and protection. Please.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHniLyF8oyz
“I’d say that’s an understatement, darlin’,” he replied, seeing that she was injured, and realizing the condition she was in.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9qnJi2DXK
A moment later, everything went black for her.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XbjZIAcOx
As she collapsed, he used vamp reflexes to catch her from hitting the ground. Only then did he realized how much she truly needed help. She had, and was still losing a lot of blood. She looked worse than crap and she was alive but pale, injured, covered in blood, and her breathing was shallow. He could hear it with his vampire hearing.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPbgCdbFQJ
He sighed, gently pulled her into his arms before getting to his feet, and then blurred upstairs to his room.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2Ajv2tfTh
Once in his room, he gently layed her down in his bed, and sat on her bedside. He bit his wrist and put it to her lips, making his blood go down her throat to heal and save her.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUWPrfWSZO
A few minutes later, he took it away and it instantly healed, as her wounds began to heal.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡki8Rn0108z
He rested a gentle hand on the right side of her face and looked down at her, hoping she’d be okay. She was human now; weak and vulnerable. He’d have to let his siblings know soon enough, though. He just hoped Klaus and Rebekah didn’t harm her. Rebekah had wanted the cure and Klaus hated her.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jf6ArkA3b
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWYW4Zx683
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdBiPXTubP
When she woke up, she was in a room with Kol, Kol seated on her bedside, looking down at her, looking like he cared about her.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeNZduvxrC
“You’re awake,” he stated. “How do you feel?”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsEPE0w0G9
She slowly sat up in bed.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaA6jEUaVF
“Better. Thanks.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkbTGNWiFW
“You’re welcome. Now what do you need help with, darlin'?”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡth0Fjx57gi
“I need protection and a witch. I’m human now, so if my enemies find out, I’ll be dead if I don’t have protection. I need a witch, because the cure did something more to me than make me human. I’m dying of old age at a rapid pace. Time is catching up with me.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpXIBuAyFx
“Well darlin', if you’re on your best behavior, I’d be glad to assist you. It just so happens I have a witch at my disposal, and I don’t fancy watching you die. Besides, dying sucks as it is.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjJMuNxMcy
“I promise to be on my best behavior. Thank you, Kol.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUf2WthICY3
“You’re welcome, darlin'.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjz7MzhXYWj
He gave her a smile and she smiled back.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrKSccHdJh
He stood up.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuugdDOP3v
“Get some rest. I’ll go speak to that witch and tell my siblings that you’re here,” he told her, before leaving his room.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGVXvfxPO6
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0s6XjPCcc
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaHwujF4jo
Half an hour later, he had informed his siblings downstairs and, as expected, Rebekah didn’t much like the idea and Klaus hated it, while Elijah would do anything to save her. And at the end of the conversation, Klaus left and Elijah went after him, while Rebekah simply went to her room.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgHcQ8lRGy
A few minutes later, he was speaking to Davina in the same room they had created the dagger that would temporarily put Klaus down if need be.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDfD030HGd
“I need a favor. Normally I wouldn’t be asking, considering who it’s for, but I do know a little of what she’s feeling. Usually, this would be Elijah asking for help in saving her, but since she did come to me, I’m the one asking,” he told the witch.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkib19kgUWb
“Who’s it for?” she asked him.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQI5rlCRD1
“Well, it depends what you prefer to call her as. I prefer Katherine Pierce. For you to understand her and why she wouldn’t come to Elijah, and most definitely not Klaus, I have to tell you her story.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsNvZDp73s
“Okay. I’m listening,” she replied.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeRI4FOqWI
“500 years ago in England 1492, after she was banished from Bulgaria by her parents for unknown reasons, she met Elijah and Klaus and a friend, Trevor, on Klaus’ birthday at a ball. Trevor and Elijah fell for her, but she only loved Elijah. Things were complicated, because Klaus needed her to break the curse in a ritual my mother set upon him. She was Elijah and Klaus’ first love’s doppelganger; Tatia. She didn’t know until Elijah told her though, and Trevor helped her escape to a cabin, where she met Trevor’s friend, Rose. It didn’t go well. Rose fed her her blood when she was willing to die, instead of Rose taking her back to Klaus. In the end, she killed herself and turned into a vampire and fled back to Bulgaria. That’s where she found her family slaughtered by Klaus. She fled from Bulgaria and ran from Klaus for 500 years. She made herself a liar and deceiver and learned how to survive, all in fear of my brother. Six months ago, after 500 years of claiming to love her forever, Elijah broke up with her. After that, apparently she had a fight with her doppelganger, whom shoved the cure for vampirism down her throat. Now she’s dying of old age at a rapid pace. I know what it’s like to be dying, so I promised her that I would help her. Besides, if I don’t, no one else will. All the friends she ever made were all killed in a church in the 1860’s. She has no one. She’s alone, human, and rightfully afraid,” he explained. Although Katherine hadn't said how she'd gotten the cure, he could only assume that Elena had shoved it down her throat.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2BhPkhskZ
After hearing her story and knowing what it was like to almost die, she said, “I’ll do it. What kind of spell do you want me to look for?”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3Swds8uzZ
“Something to reverse what the cure did,” he answered her.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfQLUIRnur
“I’ll see what I can do,” she replied.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVW22pTrQHM
He left to head back to the compound, while she searched for what would help Katherine.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJ2tlvhmnz
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUuSefjrqi
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfUz2owVAM
Half an hour later, he entered the compound where his siblings were, Elijah wanting Klaus not to harm her, and Rebekah wanting the same, despite being unhappy that Katherine had become human instead of her.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwfFDejSPV
Kol simply went to his room to check on Katherine, not wanting to have a brawl with his siblings.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLTB7PXPZO
He sat on her bedside and looked down at her and, for the first time, actually saw the aging. Wrinkles and a few gray hairs were showing, which he hadn’t seen before. And even though he’d never met her as a vampire, he realized that being human had changed her. She was kind and didn’t lash out anymore. He was actually beginning to see what Elijah saw in her. Though she was dying, he could see a glimpse of light in her; something he hadn’t realized that she had even had.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rMRmaRFVg
She woke up to see him, and she smiled up at him.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXgKNzTXFG
“How long have you been there?” she asked.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUoIEG0z8Y
“Just for a minute. I spoke to the witch, Davina, and my siblings. She’s working on saving you and they’re working on it.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZ1ZmpI62U
“Thank you, Kol.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2cK6DIgGJ
“You’re welcome, darlin',”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqremli7RI9
He gave a smile.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Rlc0PNtQ5
“Do you think you could let me walk around the compound, at least? I may be human and dying, but I don’t have to stay in bed 24/7 for you to protect me.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1ABKOSOqD
“Of course. I just thought you could use some rest. You can go wherever you want, but let me know if you need any help.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrotQ5tefKM
“I will.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSE9FGHdd7
She got out of bed and, after a change of clothes and a shower, left his room to admire the compound.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4SskEs2fw
He watched with a smile, as she left the room.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZ7BiokT23
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHPMF6RBkY
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3v0nJacZ6
As she descended the stairs, she saw his siblings, so she went slowly. They were arguing over her, and speaking of some family drama.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhaXCxrV36
“She can’t stay here. I won’t allow it,” Klaus growled at Elijah.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzg377v1JjQ
“Niklaus, she has nowhere else to go. She’s not just some human. Despite what has happened, we do care. Do not cast her out.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkmSSk7bYA
“Fine. Then she may as well make herself useful, and help take out our mother.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRY16DcqDi
She approached them.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcL9YRo6qEH
“I’m right here, Klaus. If there’s anything you’d like to tell me, I’m all ears. I am dying though, so you best make it quick. But I do have a witch and at least three Mikaelsons on my side, so be careful what you say.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOzNsRXV1T
“I don’t care what state you’re in. If you’re going to stay here, you’re going to be useful.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtnq9bAxlW
“So, what has your mother done this time?” she said with a sigh.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgyUGxUtZF
“It’s what she’s trying to accomplish,” Klaus corrected. “She’s looking for me and Hayley’s daughter. Hope is cloaked with a spell with help from a witch Rebekah enlisted. We need her destroyed.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ329iM6n1oQ
“Then you need witches to come against her. That, or you need someone to distract her so one of you can destroy her. I promise to help protect your secret and Hope, but right now, until Davina finds something to help me, I’m dying. I’m too weak to help you as much as I used to be able to help. You know I hate admitting weakness, but it’s true,” she said to him, and then headed out of the compound.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJ9LFApcAS
“Where are you going?” he asked.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8mWbqBLUk
“For a walk,” she answered, not looking back, as she disappeared.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5N2hXpbtD
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhe25aodzP
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ne0UkAATH
As Kat walked, she held in her emotions. She was still grieving for Nadia, her baby girl. She had been taken from her because of a werewolf bite, for the last time. She couldn’t help, but be envious that others got to keep their kids, but she wasn’t able to.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY183j1QRCA
A few minutes after she left, Rebekah went after her. She didn’t like her much, but Katherine was human and she needed to be protected out on the New Orleans streets. And it wasn’t like her siblings, apart from Elijah and maybe Kol, would do it.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CaH1gE6dg
When she caught up with her, she walked beside her and put a hand on her arm.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApmefHDk0O
“Katherine, hey.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5F7qvxmCsA
They stopped walking, and the newly turned human looked at her.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgn2frwL0V7
“Let me guess; you’re my protector if something happens out here.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACxAii3v05
“I am,” she replied, and then noticed that she looked upset. “What’s wrong, Katherine? If it’s Klaus, forget about him and his behavior. I may despise you, but you can still talk to me.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nljINIi50
“None of you know why I came to England in 1492; why my parents banished me from the village. I had a girl out of wedlock and they disowned me because of it. I kept her a secret for 500 years. When I recently became human, we were reunited, only for Tyler to bite her. My fear of Klaus killed her.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwM0nF4JiF
Hearing this news made Rebekah feel sorry for her.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLCnFKPb0c
“I’m sorry for your loss. I’m here if you need me.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpIqvqKRYu
“Thanks, Rebekah.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJd8zHUoThU
She smiled at the Original, who then smiled back.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGf7eZvZZh
Suddenly, they were magically attacked. Rebekah was left in the ally, out cold, while Katherine was taken to the mausoleum in the cemetery.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvOt4gtVWG
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTFkyK3q2Y
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfExboo7spa
Half an hour later, Rebekah woke up and called Klaus, as she began walking. When she couldn’t get him though, she called Kol, who immediately answered.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdNCVuRlzw
“We have a problem. Katherine’s been taken by mother.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kTPyPhadJ
“That is definitely a big problem,” Kol agreed.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTdZ1Meu72
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4otpA6X9x
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8Oh9H4x8W
An hour later, Katherine finally woke up to see that she was chained by her wrists with chains that were connected to the rock ceiling; a lot like how she had done to Elijah not that long ago.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSrZwSKBdg
“You finally decided to join me,” Esther greeted, though she wasn’t in her Original body. She was in a witch’s body.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLD48yDcrKN
“Esther I assume,” Katherine replied. “What’s your plan this time? Use me as bait? Torture me? Been there; done that. It’s not going to work.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9zxfhCkP5
“Oh, it will,” Esther replied.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UYhAf14Mb
A few minutes later, Esther had her under a sleeping spell, which made Katherine relive her past.

It was a dark night in her Bulgaria village, as she gave birth to a healthy baby girl, her mother seated beside her, the maid at the foot of the bed. Then, finally, her baby was born.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOBTFnIROO
“Please. Let me see her,” Katerina asked of the maid.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMow4e9a4I8
The maid began to give her to her to see her, but then her father walked in and asked the maid what she was doing, which made the maid stop and look at him.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCL3q1tIRIs
“Give the child to me,” Katerina’s father instructed, in which the maid did.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRq4I79lRul
As he walked away with her baby, Katerina begged her father to reconsider, with tears streaming down her face, saying, “No, pa'pa! Please!”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9KFnGbol9
He stopped at the doorway to the room and replied, “No! You have disgraced this family!”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JNo3AtAkX
Katerina could only cry, as she watched her father disappeared with her baby. That was the very last time she knew she would ever see her baby girl. She had screwed up, and for that, her family had disowned her, and she knew she would soon be banished from her home.

It was a dark night in England at a ball, as Katerina followed Trevor, whom had said he wanted her to meet Lord Elijah and Lord Niklaus. It was an elegant ball, in which she had never seen or been to before.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zOWxAasEt
Soon, he introduced her to Lord Elijah and Lord Niklaus who she did a curtsey for.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBXc0hHucQ
“Pleasure to meet you, Lord Niklaus,” she greeted to Niklaus.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwkwDpd7Tt
He kissed her hand and then said, “That’s what my mother calls me. Please, call me Klaus.”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNMoMhZfFR
When she had been acquainted further and Lord Klaus had been informed that she had no place to stay, she was told that she could stay with him at his estate, in which she obliged.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQloFJ7vJ8

“I do not believe in love, Katerina,” he said to her.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutvy2TzmMv
“I’m sorry, my Lord, but that’s too sad for me to accept. If we cease to believe in love, then why would we want to live?”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBgRiU9zaK

After Trevor and Elijah helped her escape Klaus, whom was going to sacrifice her in a ritual, Rose whom found out who she was, said she would return her to Klaus, so Katerina took matters in her own hands by killing herself, which ended in her waking up in transition, and killing the old woman who owned the cabin, which turned her into a vampire. Then she fled and headed for her Bulgaria village, only to see that her entire village and family had been slaughtered. There was a sword through her father’s chest and he was hanging from the wall, while her mother lay on her back on the bed with her throat torn open.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvHAeJpTlr
“No! Ma’ma!” she said, going to kneel by her on the bed, and cried over her mother’s body.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIydvJgIxa
When she could cry no longer, she fled Bulgaria to run from, and hopefully, escape Klaus.

When she had escaped Klaus for a while, she returned to Bulgaria in search of her daughter whom, at the time, was only eight years old. She searched every village and town and city, but she couldn’t find her, so she left Bulgaria, giving up on ever being able to find her daughter and be reunited with her. Little did she know, several years later, she would finally be reunited with Nadia Petrova.

Later that night, while Esther was up against Klaus, Kol took the chains off Katherine and gently carried her, blurring back to the compound. Then, once in his room, he gently layed her down in his bed and sat on her bedside, looking down at her, thankful she was still alive at least.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BlZhpRSep
When they found out that she was under a sleeping spell because of Esther, Klaus got the cure that would wake her up, and gave it to Katerina. He then left the room and soon after, she began to awaken.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydhVFMfu4v
“Welcome back, darlin',” Kol greeted, once she had come to.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsquboV2c2R
She smiled and he smiled back.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITzioQwDcc
“Thanks,” she replied.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0oX0iArHa
She slowly sat up in bed and looked at him.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZRmVgV6zc
“I know I don’t need to say this, but I’m sorry for what my mother did. You don’t deserve anything of what you got,” he replied.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXNxorV3tS

“Well, I never heard of your past except for 1492 England. What is your past?”508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi99nZP6EtG
“It’s a long story, so go ahead. See for yourself,” she invited, trusting him. After he had saved her twice, she trusted him with all of her heart. She trusted him with her life. Besides, she knew that he would never hurt her, no matter what.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnmM6JCbXA
He did as she asked and then, a few minutes later, came out of her memories and back to the present.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1M5wK8f2c
“I’m sorry for what you have endured. No one should have to go through any of that,” he said.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqfi5WDk6D
“Thanks for the sympathy,” she replied.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0z49sNtfO
They looked at each other, and it was such a moment that, before they knew it, they were making out in his bed with the door closed.
