A/N: My very first time of writing something in Kol's POV.
It's a dark night in Mystic Falls, Virginia as I watch the famous now human Katherine Pierce, limp away from the crash site, injured and obviously afraid. She has a right to be, since Damon Salvatore was most likely going to hand her over to Silas. She doesn't see me, as I follow her into the woods, making my way past a dying Jeremy Gilbert. I'm a ghost. No one can see me except for that witch friend and the Gilbert boy. I try to stay away from the Gilberts that killed me a year ago and I never really liked that witch. The only reason why I'm watching over Katherine is because my elder and moral brother, Elijah Mikaelson, loves her, and there's nothing to do on the Other Side. It's quite boring.
When she finally stops in the middle of the woods, she sits under a tree with her back against the bark, apparently taking a break from running.
A moment later, it starts raining.
She puts an arm around herself, obviously getting cold from the rain, and takes her phone out with her free hand. I walk over to look over her shoulder. She has her contacts up and idling on my moral brother's name, but decides to put her phone away.
As I watch her curl up into a ball and go to sleep, which I know she shouldn't be doing after a car crash, I know I have to do something. I'm not a doctor, but I lived for 1,000 years. I know a few things. I've also picked up on stuff as a ghost. So, using my ghost energy, I take her phone out and text Elijah and Klaus. I'm human and I've been in a car crash. I'm in the woods injured. I need help. I then put it away and stay at her side, hoping they'll assume that she's still in Mystic Falls. I text them both since Klaus tends to dagger Elijah more often than not.
After what feels like an hour, my werewolf-vampire hybrid brother, Klaus, arrives and approaches her.
"What have you gotten yourself into, Katerina?" he says, before gently picking her up in his arms and vanishing from sight.
By the time he arrives at our family home in New Orleans, I'm there to watch over her. He's being nice now, but wait until his mood changes. My brother can be a worse ass than I was when I was alive.
An hour later, she wakes up and sits up in bed to see where she is.
"Sleeping beauty awakens," I say, though I know she can't hear me.
She goes to the bathroom to get dressed, so I stay in the room. I may be a ghost, but that doesn't mean that I lurk at certain private moments. I find somewhere else to be so I don't have to see it.
When she comes out, she's dressed and fabulous.
"You are marvelously gorgeous, darling," I comment.
Since she's okay now, I decide to leave.
"See you around, darling," I say, before disappearing.
