It was a dark night, as Katherine Pierce arrived in New Orleans. She had recently been dying of old age, but had found a way to turn back into a vampiress.

A year ago, he had broken up with her, before leaving to go help Klaus with a witch. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXo1zCbIdwL
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. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCRLiSsuQV

Half an hour later, she stood in front of the compound and knocked. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0m49PFLwI
A moment later, Elijah Mikaelson opened the door. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCArjyHrtoF
“Katerina?” he questioned her. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCfplnnv5C
“Elijah. It’s been a while. May I come in?”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxgYTcVI4b
“Most certainly, but what are you doing here? This isn’t the best of times.” 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMXnfkw5vP
She walked inside and he closed the door. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGhLWSYdyT
She looked at him. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYomFagbR6O
“I came to win you back, but I also came to help you. I heard what happened and I want to help.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOOV052bQD
“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.” 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtINuV7SKAP
“I promise I’ll behave myself.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQR6PlBNCh
She headed upstairs to go find a guest bedroom to stay in.510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCkXeryqLw
Elijah watched her go.510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAb63S6Ikde

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. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbov41L4oQa

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. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwQS4yHhZ9

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. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eQoNNgMkE
A guy walked into the room. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuDsgnS49c
“Good morning. I’m Marcel. I just want to know who you are and why you’ve suddenly come to New Orleans.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0qCx9myEj
“I’m not telling you anything. Marcel, so you might want to let me go.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3v6kZmDko1
“What’s your name?” he inquired. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeQImTkETg
“Go to hell. You want info? Ask the Originals and leave me out of it.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEvFd5mmlB
“No can do.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37BC7NjGu5
She screamed in excruciating pain, when vervain was thrown on her. She growled with hatred towards Marcel. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cYdKIXwpQ

Several hours later, the vamps by the door were killed with their hearts ripped out of their chests and Marcel saw Elijah. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoKz6o8Fdj
“You have something of mine. I need her back. Leave now and no harm will come to you.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FWCOyiy3r
“Never.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9W4SmmL1pm
“Very well then.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUE1i1YMNme
At vamp speed, Marcel was temporarily killed, when Elijah snapped his neck. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7j9T7x0Rv8
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. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnD1U8JLKxh

510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJM8mB6kgf
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. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqGdHXzjAW
After a few minutes, her wounds and his wrist healed once he took it away. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMnVwdBora
He put his hand in hers and rested a gentle hand on the left side of her face. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRqlJ0ibIf
“I’m so sorry, Katerina. Forgive me. I should have been looking out for you.” 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4e4McxpG8s
He looked down at her and waited for her to come to. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1jtWtkwTX
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtH2YIHfPB
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7A53Wx6It
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. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WFzckh6n1
“Thank you,” she said, looking up at him. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbduOf9BOh
“You’re welcome, Katerina. Forgive me. I should’ve made sure you weren’t in danger.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4LdnZDfV4
“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.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjAoOfQsGk
“She’s out on a killing spree again.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOShC3PwRa8
“I’m going to go find her and help her. Don’t worry; I’ll be careful.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOcWp6stxl
She got to her feet as did he and he helped her to her feet. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdet2zgwsLy
“Don’t be gone too long,” he said. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGa2PGUfXvt
“I promise I’ll be back by sunrise if not sooner.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhF4BUbNl4Z
She kissed him on the cheek, before leaving. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lbRi0x7tG

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. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyjlroYvQa
She came into view and Hayley gave a growl. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDu0RTQWAoN
“Katherine.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGg5o7baSU
“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.” 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1i9YbqPwh9
Hayley realized she was telling the truth. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcolvtyD9FC
“You think you can help me?”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVd74oYujH2
“Both of you, yes. The pain never goes away, but there are less violent ways to get it out of your system.” 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGkmkuCH9V
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQ4v3eJFOo
510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2R3vlGqhji
Half an hour later, they had arrived back at the compound. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBK2qT6y0Z
Hayley went to her room, while Kat located Klaus.510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqONiRbvRhL
Kat soon found Klaus in his room painting. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6mClDVGSk
“Klaus?” she called to him, as she walked into the room. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBMlapfKMk
“Katerina. What an unpleasant surprise,” he said, looking at her, as she walked in. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlwdHnRSIW
“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.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MF78srekQ
“Why would I let you help me? You are the bane of my existence.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepnh1E2hvO
“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.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvhNcXuXKi
“You had a daughter?” he questioned her. 510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiooGhSOD6
“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.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡom13M5yArD
“I’m sorry for your loss. You’ve suffered enough throughout the centuries.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPnyN4lBRd
“Yes. Now you know what it’s like to lose your daughter, though I would never wish it upon anyone; not even you yourself.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhq3778NbXv
“Tell me then, Katerina. How do you cope with it? Live with it?”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GikVaaM40
“By taking one step at a time; it gets better as time goes on.”510Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6vnHzMAXt

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.
