It was a dark night in Mystic Falls, as Katherine Pierce walked the route to the Salvatore boarding house. She stopped when she smelled the smell of heavily flowing blood. She knew whom it belonged to, so she followed her scent.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHVFgjEN1a
She stopped a distance away in a deserted parking lot.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ86JK7xGKF
As soon as she saw Rebekah Mikaelson feeding from the present doppelganger's neck, she through her across the parking lot at vampire speed and, as Rebekah was thrown, she caught an unconscious Elena Gilbert from hitting the ground. Then, vamped out, she bit her wrist and put it to her lips, making her blood go down her throat, as she knelt on the ground and held her in her arms.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAMgORqIvT
Rebekah got to her feet and saw the scene. As she started to walk towards them, Katherine looked at her and growled menacingly in warning.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9D4Olqzlh
Rebekah stopped a distance away when she got growled at.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGn3zvdSnN
"Well, well, look who's so protective," the Original commented.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPmdgvpIMw
The former doppelganger gently took her wrist away and layed her gently on the ground on her back, before she got to her feet.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbODGEj7yp
"Why wouldn't I be?" the vampiress growled at her.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg170FCo8EX
"I thought you despised her is all."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00fz2jazKv
"I don't despise her. She's my family and you nearly killed her."
At vampire speed, the vampiress pinned Rebekah to a tree with a hand tightly around her throat, letting her anger loose.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeEE2lDXrO
"You can't kill me. I'm older than you," Rebekah said through the pain.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHc3lnx10Pn
"No. But I sure as hell can hurt you. You should learn a few things about family before you start killing, or, in this case, almost killing someone else's family," she growled at the blond vampiress. Then she through her to the ground and twisted her arm behind her back.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHTcXBPs2h
Rebekah gasped in pain.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ784E90RalY
"Stay the hell away from my family, or I will dagger you myself," the ex-doppelganger growled at her, as she did so, warning her for future reference.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLtlG5kaE8
With her arm still behind her back, the former doppelganger got her to her feet before she through her. This time she let go of her, as she through her.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxY7VptpI9c
Elijah Mikaelson arrived and stopped between the distance of his only sister and Katherine. As he did, his sister began to painfully get to her feet. Then he went to stand in front of Katherine.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFZ7fWO3qS
"What's going on, Katerina?"746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpgpDAR79P
"Keep your bitch of a sister away from my family," she answered in anger. She then added more calmly, "Keep her in line."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryYaNnRwg1
"What happened?" he asked calmly.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCxFv6TSvs
"Your sister nearly killed Elena."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdahWJGuSaO
"I promise that she will be punished."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwvH77eURE
"Thank you, Elijah."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SbEvnfMyx
"You are welcome, Katerina."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAI6aKpKcg
Elijah looked over his shoulder at his sister and calmly, but with a hint of anger in his voice said, "Rebekah, go straight home. There will be consequences."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JYU6Mbxnt
He watched her vanish, before he looked at the vampiress again.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzrGSg00J0
"Are you okay? Did she hurt you?" he asked calmly with worry, figuring that she and Rebekah had most likely had a fight.
When she had been human, he and Trevor had both loved her. To this day, he cared deeply for her, even though he wasn't madly in love with her anymore. He cared for Elena as well. Elena was supposed to be under his protection. He felt like he had failed in his duty, knowing that Rebekah had almost killed the doppelganger.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbstIoOoAW5
The vampiress looked back at him and tried to hide what she felt now. She was in pain. In the fight with Rebekah, she hadn't felt any pain. She had been too filled with rage at her to notice.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT713Zrp4oy
"I don't know," she replied truthfully.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJp3vgDn6aP
Like her human family, she knew she could trust Elijah with what life she had left. She didn't have to lie to him.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjFbkjfM2P
"Katerina, what…?" he started to ask, but stopped when he smelled blood; her blood.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI91X6hPbBr
She saw him start to look at her for where she was hurt at. As she saw that, she realized she couldn't hide her pain. Then she felt herself quickly weaken.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9btyqOI9fb
Elijah put gentle hands on her waist to try and keep her on her feet, as he saw her weaken and start to lose her balance.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEX3BQRKMd
"Katerina," he said calmly, though inside, he was scared for her. He wanted to help her in any way that he could.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOT1HJatTD
"Elijah," she said, as everything blurred. She then put gentle hand on his shoulders to do what she could to stay on her feet. It was to no avail though, as everything went black.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6lQ2GFXay
As she collapsed, Elijah caught her with a hand between her shoulder blades, an arm holding her up.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupuLLcNDvn
"Hang on, Katerina."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdh2eeO88z
He knelt down and pulled her gently into his arms. That's when he felt it. He pulled the small dagger out of her lower back and tossed it to the ground. He then bit his wrist and put it to her lips, making his blood go down her throat to help her heal faster.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqpPwznkhx
A few minutes later, he took his wrist away and it instantly healed. As he held her close, she slowly started to come to.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmjL85Ziij
When she was awake, he helped her to her feet.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVezekrNYM
"Thank you, Elijah."746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJZm2Ex8xH
"You're welcome anytime, Katerina."
Elijah watched her, as she went over to Elena to get her home, before he went to his own home to deal with his sister and punish her for what she had done and almost done.746Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKTcWVkRcu
Later, everybody lived happily ever after as they could with Elena and Kat fully recovering.
