*Mikaelson Mansion*
Like a small boat
On the ocean
Sending big waves
Into motion
Like how a single word
Can make a heart open
I might only have one match
But I can make an explosion

Elijah and Katherine stood in front of each other at the Mikaelson place. He’d just told her that he was leaving town to follow Klaus to New Orleans to help Klaus with the witches.
“Elijah, please. It’s our turn,” she reasoned, pleading with him to stay.
“Katerina.” He kissed her on the forehead. “Goodbye, Katerina.”
A moment later, he was gone.
*Pennsylvania- Night*
And all those things I didn’t say
Wrecking balls inside my brain
I will scream ‘em loud tonight
Can you hear my voice now?
This is my fight song
Take back my life song
Prove I’m alright song
My power’s turned on
Starting right now I’ll be strong
I’ll play my fight song
And I don’t really care if nobody else believes
‘Cause I’ve still got a lot of fight left in me

Katherine stood in front of Elijah that night on a sidewalk. She needed to earn his trust back, she knew, so she knew one thing that could help give her some points.
“What do you want?” he said, irritated.
“To tell you that you’re right. I’ve spent so much time running and lying just to survive that I----I’m starting to believe my own lies. I don’t even remember who I was when we first met. And I want to find out.” She took the cure out of her purse.
“You have the cure.”
“Yes, and I can shove this down Klaus’ throat and try to kill him, but even if I managed to do it, I’d lose you. And I don’t want that to happen.” She set it in his hand. “I want you to trust me. I need you to trust me. Just like I’m trusting you. You don’t owe me anything. I’m going to let you decide where we go from here.”
He silently watched, as she walked away.
*1492- Bulgaria*
Losing friends and I’m chasing sleep
Everybody’s worried about me
In too deep, say
I’m in too deep
And it’s been two years
I miss my home
But there’s a fire burning in my bones
I still believe
Yeah I still believe
This is my fight song
Take back my life song
Prove I’m alright song
My power’s turned on

Katerina Petrova knelt by her mother on the bed. She’d just found her slaughtered village. She knew this had been Klaus’ doing. He was the only person that she knew that could do something like this. As she knelt by her mother, she wept over her.578Please respect copyright.PENANAXauAkR3YOF
*Fifty Shades of Grayson*
Starting right now I’ll be strong
I’ll play my fight song
And I don’t really care if nobody else believes
‘Cause I’ve still got a lot of fight left in me
A lot of fight left in me

It was a dark night, as a human Katherine Pierce spoke to Nadia over the phone.
“I’m Katherine Pierce. I survive.” She hung up after that but then, a moment later, she dropped the bag that was over her shoulder and phone, feeling a pain travel up her arm and towards her chest. She put a hand on her chest and then everything went black.

Katherine was on a bed with doctors trying to revive her after her heart attack, as Caroline called Elijah, knowing how much he cared about her and probably still loved her. She knew it sucked to die alone and she wanted Elijah to know what was happening to her. The doctors didn’t think she’d make it, so Caroline thought that it would be best that Elijah know so he could come say goodbye or maybe even find a way to save her life. Katherine deserved to have someone with her that cared about her.
This is my fight song
Take back my life song
Prove I’m alright song
My power’s turned on
Starting right now I’ll be strong
I’ll play my fight song
And I don’t really care if nobody else believes
‘Cause I’ve still got a lot of fight left in me
Now I’ve got a lot of fight left in me

A few hours later, Elijah was seated on her bedside, having been informed by Caroline what all had happened to her. Katerina had been revived after about twenty minutes, but she wasn’t out of danger quite yet. The doctors didn’t think she’d make it through the night, but he knew better. She was a fighter, human or not. She’d make it through. He could only hope, though. Knowing what was happening, he wished that he had stayed or at least asked her to come with him, instead of leaving her. Maybe if he had stayed or asked her to come with him, maybe she never would have gotten the cure shoved down her throat. Maybe she’d still be a vampire and very much alive, instead of here in the hospital, fighting for her life because he wasn’t there when she needed him to stay.
He rested a hand on one of hers and his other one on the side of her face, as he waited for her to awaken.
“I’m here, Katerina. You’re not alone,” he said, though he didn’t know if she could hear him or not.
A few days later, she woke up and she and Elijah got back together again.
