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. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekgwYn2Byb

Half an hour later, she stood in front of the compound and knocked. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1B22WTopP
A moment later, Elijah Mikaelson opened the door. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qLBJsp8CK
“Katerina?” he questioned her. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2noq9Hwapw
“Elijah. It’s been a while. May I come in?”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkhiB5gxeU
“Most certainly, but what are you doing here? This isn’t the best of times.” 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUbOup9Bi3
She walked inside and he closed the door. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiARDu9oRU
She looked at him. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh754A7znTe
“I came to win you back, but I also came to help you. I heard what happened and I want to help.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpefWKTDm5q
“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.” 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxr67RSoQx
“I promise I’ll behave myself.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNHYVVMwRK
She headed upstairs to go find a guest bedroom to stay in.505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3ubMVuGey
Elijah watched her go.505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgVa3sbeve

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. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjFOHqKt0X

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. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8TNjSggWl

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. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZGx5SuwnZ
A guy walked into the room. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdY8uhlMpW
“Good morning. I’m Marcel. I just want to know who you are and why you’ve suddenly come to New Orleans.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QcZghPvyn
“I’m not telling you anything. Marcel, so you might want to let me go.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO90q5HB5kq
“What’s your name?” he inquired. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Q79rqBJpc
“Go to hell. You want info? Ask the Originals and leave me out of it.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYyfEIkfQt
“No can do.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTjUE3dnpO
She screamed in excruciating pain, when vervain was thrown on her. She growled with hatred towards Marcel. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yAADyhHtc

505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoWvZys93e
Several hours later, the vamps by the door were killed with their hearts ripped out of their chests and Marcel saw Elijah. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3hqZfpgKF
“You have something of mine. I need her back. Leave now and no harm will come to you.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJQ7Ew2aF8
“Never.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfh2Oxst0Qu
“Very well then.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFP9GpofA7K
At vamp speed, Marcel was temporarily killed, when Elijah snapped his neck. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelQ23krzWc
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. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yHlTAjAhU

505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZCRlMitjy
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. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhXDqIKLsx
After a few minutes, her wounds and his wrist healed once he took it away. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCmNO3HbMQ
He put his hand in hers and rested a gentle hand on the left side of her face. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpsaeRhtP7
“I’m so sorry, Katerina. Forgive me. I should have been looking out for you.” 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwR8uwD73ux
He looked down at her and waited for her to come to. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPgIfALAhr
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2W1IIqzrU7
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4vaszCuQm
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. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡconoNzZCJC
“Thank you,” she said, looking up at him. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfXskVQY4e
“You’re welcome, Katerina. Forgive me. I should’ve made sure you weren’t in danger.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOF4OFx6CR
“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.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5EZ9pWiHh
“She’s out on a killing spree again.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCX7Kyz1X0
“I’m going to go find her and help her. Don’t worry; I’ll be careful.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwPRjt3Nkw
She got to her feet as did he and he helped her to her feet. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAXfNvgw0i
“Don’t be gone too long,” he said. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgxdvUIHcq
“I promise I’ll be back by sunrise if not sooner.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSDAo56Pm7
She kissed him on the cheek, before leaving. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUSyp6PK6u

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. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5pfWDsvj6
She came into view and Hayley gave a growl. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XLsUy3H7W
“Katherine.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ditlt6qmB
“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.” 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6twPUtOW91
Hayley realized she was telling the truth. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0l8GsbKste
“You think you can help me?”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBhgGDj755
“Both of you, yes. The pain never goes away, but there are less violent ways to get it out of your system.” 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6RkM2YZQv
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbGMIpnDj4
505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVSqhL5tID
Half an hour later, they had arrived back at the compound. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiGY9UJc9L
Hayley went to her room, while Kat located Klaus.505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOWXHqumE8
Kat soon found Klaus in his room painting. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNgTl4yn7Z
“Klaus?” she called to him, as she walked into the room. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDMt0ubNSk
“Katerina. What an unpleasant surprise,” he said, looking at her, as she walked in. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbW2QryZdOc
“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.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hkkszW1Rk
“Why would I let you help me? You are the bane of my existence.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngYzkjSkMC
“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.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDMiLAuSnY
“You had a daughter?” he questioned her. 505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRBtdO2dCd
“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.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedEXIh0qPT
“I’m sorry for your loss. You’ve suffered enough throughout the centuries.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHZTWwc6Fo
“Yes. Now you know what it’s like to lose your daughter, though I would never wish it upon anyone; not even you yourself.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTVFY0ytNP
“Tell me then, Katerina. How do you cope with it? Live with it?”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrAlGTkOah
“By taking one step at a time; it gets better as time goes on.”505Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0RKFDz3i5

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.
