Summary: Set in S5E10 "Fifty Shades of Grayson." What if Nadia came back to be with her mother? What if Elena was there in that last Katherine scene? Will she save Katherine's life, or will she let human Katherine die?533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroJogzemNn
It was a dark night as Katherine Pierce spoke on the phone with her long lost daughter, Nadia Petrova, in the boarding house on the landing of the stairs, duffel bag slung over her right shoulder, getting ready to head down the rest of the stairs, ready to leave to go find a Traveler to help her live longer.533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieUxncWwo9
"I'm Katherine Pierce. I'm a survivor," she reminded her daughter, when Nadia questioned her of if she was actually ready to try it.533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHtPZJfFHP
Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain on the left side of her chest and the duffel bag and phone dropped to the landing, as she leaned against the railing and tried to breathe. She didn't know what was going on, but she had a guess that she was probably dying.533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TjROedE6c
"Katherine?" Nadia called over and over again on the phone, hearing her trying to breathe.533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwU4C9xt8Z
This is it, Katherine thought, as her vision went blurry.
Elena was sobbing on the couch in the living room after arguing with Damon, when she heard everything that was happening to Katherine on the stairs.533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDv3YgNq0K2
A moment later, she was knelt by the former vampiress whom lay on her back, trying to breathe.533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMeRTonYDz
As her vision narrowed, Katherine vaguely heard Elena and Nadia, but couldn't verbally say anything.533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuYgDkL2QB
"Katherine, hang in there," Elena encouraged her gently, realizing what was happening. She then told Nadia on the phone, "Katherine's going to have to call you back."533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhm1wwO2Iu
"What's going on?" Nadia asked, but feared the worse.533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnhh4LYnNf
"She's having a heart attack," Elena answered her.533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNLiUKMhpQ
"I'm on my way," Nadia said, before hanging up, deciding to go back to be with her mother.533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmE4271BXc
The last thing Kat saw in her mind was Elijah, before everything went black for her.
A few minutes later, Elena was at the hospital, watching the doctors rush her down the hall to help her.
A few hours later, Elena and Nadia were in the hospital room waiting for her to awaken. Elena was seated in a chair by her bed, while Nadia was seated on her bedside, Nadia's hand in her mother's.
When Kat awoke, she saw that she was in a hospital room, Nadia on her bedside and Elena by the bed.533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyou17n7YIh
She smiled at her daughter, grateful that she was there.533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5gRsMh3oA
She turned her head to look at her descendant.533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVKuY3sz6y
"Thanks. You saved my life."533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZC52A789L
"Well, you're just luck I was there. Get better. I should go home. I'll check in with you later," Elena replied, before getting to her feet and leaving the room, closing the door behind herself.533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYdmmiE3Wb
They watched her go, before looking at each other.533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡme424wZrZf
"Thanks for being here. You don't know how happy that makes me feel."533Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOYUTAUS8t
"Of course I'm here. You're my mother," Nadia replied.
