It was a beautiful day in a cave, as Kai pointed an arrow at Bonnie, trying to keep them from leaving without him. He had a mission to finish; kill his sister Jo, and the rest of his family and species.631Please respect copyright.PENANACB1HV6XCyi
Damon was standing beside Bonnie by the time Kai let the arrow fly and it was going to hit her in the stomach. But it didn't. A human Katherine appeared and got in the way, keeping Bonnie from getting hurt.631Please respect copyright.PENANAoLpqZ9YgnX
"Katherine?" Bonnie questioned.631Please respect copyright.PENANAX1PlfWxPbA
"What the hell are you doing here?" Damon inquired.631Please respect copyright.PENANA1VKxx5HUo8
"I was sent here like you two," she answered him.631Please respect copyright.PENANAHZmhH3o3j5
Kai aimed another arrow at them.631Please respect copyright.PENANAGKQ20sPGwh
"I'd stay here if I were you," he warned. "Unless you take me with you."631Please respect copyright.PENANAPjKM72soQy
"No can do," Damon replied.631Please respect copyright.PENANAw0GoJ8lzkg
"Get lost," Katherine said, before magically throwing him against a wall, making him drop his weapon.631Please respect copyright.PENANAM2oGNGFy5N
Katherine painfully pulled the arrow out of her stomach and let it drop to the ground. She then used her hand to apply pressure, as to try and slow the bleeding.631Please respect copyright.PENANAu7cU1JXYSO
"Better hurry and get us out of here," she told Bonnie. "Before I die rescuing you two."631Please respect copyright.PENANADeUeKEuVvz
"You're not coming with us," Damon protested.631Please respect copyright.PENANArPHiiESbUu
"Yes, she is. Whether we like it or not, we don't have time for this," Bonnie interjected.631Please respect copyright.PENANATJZ2G2fx6G
"Too bad," Katherine said to him.631Please respect copyright.PENANAPaHdGgAwb3
They grabbed the ascendant.631Please respect copyright.PENANANU9HwfJXlz
A moment later, they were in the real world, standing outside the Salvatore boarding house. Bonnie then left to go find Caroline, Elena, and Jeremy.631Please respect copyright.PENANAIb5jIp9I8J
Damon and Katherine looked at one another, before Damon spoke.631Please respect copyright.PENANAC5bYgqI5mx
"Why did you do that? You've always been selfish."631Please respect copyright.PENANAWWyuiH4x94
"Because I couldn't let her get hurt and I wasn't always selfish. I just turned selfish, because of everything that happened to me in the last 500 years of my life. You never heard the real story," the human replied.631Please respect copyright.PENANAq2y5tpkJy3
"Then tell me."631Please respect copyright.PENANAHTsVqJCtHh
"I will. Later when I'm not dying."631Please respect copyright.PENANA4HipXBstip
She unintentionally leaned against Damon. Then everything went black for her from blood loss.631Please respect copyright.PENANAlcDLvWX6MA
Damon caught her from hitting the ground. He then gently layed her down on the ground and bit his wrist, putting it to her lips, making his blood go down her throat to heal and save his sire.631Please respect copyright.PENANAle0VedyInh
After she was healed and wasn't dying anymore, he took his wrist away, which instantly healed. He then gently pulled her into his arms and went inside the Salvatore home.631Please respect copyright.PENANAkhSkMoaIFS
631Please respect copyright.PENANAkcrLmS8jwM
631Please respect copyright.PENANALFXrlnwgEH
Once in his room, he gently layed his sire down on his bed and sat on her bedside, waiting for her to come to.631Please respect copyright.PENANAESkzQ2Vh3i
631Please respect copyright.PENANAabGha44XLd
631Please respect copyright.PENANAxVA484QKL7
An hour later she came to, which strangely relieved him.631Please respect copyright.PENANArgzU0b7TKY
After she told him the whole story, he actually felt sorry for her. No one should have to go through all of that.631Please respect copyright.PENANAP6g4o4zgbI
A moment later, they were kissing. It was filled with passion and love they hadn't shown one another for 145 years. And in that moment, Katherine knew that he still loved her, and he realized his love for Katherine was still there. It had just been hidden behind hate, anger, rage, vengeance, chaos, and his love for Elena. Now he knew he had to make a choice. Go back to Katherine, or stay with Elena? He loved her, but Katherine was human. If he didn't act, it could be too late to have a second chance with her if he chose Elena. So he made up his mind. He'd go back to Katherine until she died a human. Then he'd win Elena back, knowing she'd be angry with him for choosing his sire over the girl he promised he'd "never leave you again," three years ago. It would work, though. He knew it.
