Summary: Based off from a dream I had. Katherine finds out that Klaus is going to come kill her. She says her good-byes to her family and gives Elena the one and only thing she has left. Will Damon care that Kat will probably end up dying? Will Elena try to stop it from happening? Will Klaus win, or will Rebekah stop her brother in time? Will Tyler and Caroline care enough to try and stop Klaus? Will anyone get hurt? Will anyone die?
Katherine Pierce

It's a dark night in Mystic Falls, Virginia as I sit on the arm of Damon's couch, as he reads Jonathan Gilbert's journal. We're in the Salvatore boarding house.792Please respect copyright.PENANAOlokeX6qeL
"Why are you still here, Katherine?" he asks me.792Please respect copyright.PENANAYyZIRWfmCY
"I'm helping for possibly the last time," I answer him, and then stand up and go to stand not far from the entrance way.792Please respect copyright.PENANAkCUb1kCJlB
"What do you mean?" he asks me, putting the journal down and looking at me.792Please respect copyright.PENANAqBNeqkEdaa
"Klaus will come after me. I'm saying my good-byes to my family. I want you to know that I loved both of you, but after what Stefan did, I love only you now. But I'm not stupid. Not going to force myself on you. You're lucky, Damon. You have family that loves you. My family was slaughtered by Klaus five hundred years ago. And I know it's been centuries, but I can't like forever like this. I act tough, but it's only an act. I'm like you, Damon. I act the opposite of what I really am. Sometimes I can barely hold it together. For my sake, I hope you'll forgive me. If I'm going to die, it'll be from Klaus. Don't get any ideas. I know how you feel; really feel. And because you think I lie, here," I tell him. Then I toss him my Petrova journal I have from the time I was human all the way to the present.792Please respect copyright.PENANA1JEumhw5xo
I turn to face the entryway to leave, when I see the other Salvatore brother.792Please respect copyright.PENANAqBcx9HL5E4
"Stefan. I was just going to find you. I need to say good-bye."792Please respect copyright.PENANA3VbpyvLOYp
"Why? This sounds like a dying good-bye. What's going to happen?" he asks me with concern in his eyes.792Please respect copyright.PENANAo4mfhADFoe
I look up at him, standing close enough in front of him, we can touch.792Please respect copyright.PENANA4PbBqLFUdW
I explain with barely a steady voice, "Klaus is coming after me tonight. In case I die, I'm giving my last good-byes to my family."792Please respect copyright.PENANAoA8cXW2egw
He sadly looks at me.792Please respect copyright.PENANAvPuTK1Ijj2
"Good riddance. At least you'll be out of our hair," Damon comments.792Please respect copyright.PENANATSRnY7MkZ9
"Damon, I know you care. It's just an act," I say, looking over my shoulder at him.792Please respect copyright.PENANAjH0oJiXTLh
I look between my two Salvatore brothers; one that didn't love me enough; Stefan; and one that loved me too much. Obviously, that's Damon.792Please respect copyright.PENANAbnNyW5obsQ
"When I'm gone, please don't fight. Stay together and watch each other's backs," I plead with them.792Please respect copyright.PENANAUgRU1ZDHho
"We'll do what we can," Stefan promises me.792Please respect copyright.PENANA5h7hSJ9rya
I slowly leave the house afterward, to visit the last of my Petrova bloodline. Elena Gilbert.
I enter Elena's kitchen and stand at the entrance, knowing she's there. She closes the refrigerator door with a bottle of water in her right hand.792Please respect copyright.PENANAxzysykCzKv
"Elena," I greet, getting her attention.
She turns around and sets the water on the counter.792Please respect copyright.PENANAGTkbjB2ewF
"Katherine. What are you doing here?"792Please respect copyright.PENANAqdP7iN4tZd
She looks at me with fear. Fear radiates off her, but I'm not here to harm her. She needs to know that. She is my family. I do what is best for my family.792Please respect copyright.PENANAEeuNYmu41Q
"Don't be afraid, Elena. I won't hurt you. I'm only here to talk."792Please respect copyright.PENANAwsxbiyksyX
"What is it?"792Please respect copyright.PENANAe57ULbwjlV
"Klaus; he's going to come after me; he obviously wants me dead. And if he kills me, I'll welcome it after I run a little bit. He killed my entire village and family five hundred years ago. I don't know how to go on forever with this grief. I'm here to say good-bye, Elena. I want to give you the only thing I have that I can give."792Please respect copyright.PENANAKCL2RKS2fU
I take out a key and toss it to her, which she catches.792Please respect copyright.PENANACnrpTtFzhK
"I want you to have the Petrova journals. They might be useful. Someone had a ring like Alaric's. If he dies too many times, there'll be consequences. He'll start killing people and won't remember doing it. Take care of him. Don't let him die too many times. And obviously, I want you to take care of Jeremy, your friends, and Damon and Stefan. And if all possible, I want you to have kids and be happy. I love you, Elena."792Please respect copyright.PENANADNPs44Mv7B
I'm instantly in front of her.792Please respect copyright.PENANAzNmUfJk1vZ
With sadness in my expression and tears streaming down my face, I gently put hands on either side of her head and lightly kiss her forehead.792Please respect copyright.PENANAcOSRrz8Rnj
"Take care."792Please respect copyright.PENANALbE9wsJ5qb
I let go and look at her.792Please respect copyright.PENANAnU5GhEtv7d
"This may be the night that I finally give up."792Please respect copyright.PENANAZfQSSkiBuK
At vamp speed, before she can say anything, I'm out of the house and heading towards the forest. It's a full moon, but I don't care.
Caroline Forbes
792Please respect copyright.PENANA5OmO5gxeC4
792Please respect copyright.PENANAesvaBs1ON7
Tyler and I are walking through the forest, when I hear crying a distance or so away.
"Tyler, do you hear that?" I ask him.792Please respect copyright.PENANA1vVG5otTZi
"What?" he asks.792Please respect copyright.PENANASv0oqr6j23
We both stop, as I answer him, standing in front of him, looking at him.792Please respect copyright.PENANABHNSZTYMr4
"It's Katherine."792Please respect copyright.PENANASNXjpN6qD6
"So?" is all he says.792Please respect copyright.PENANAPdKLbUUKVG
"Tyler, we should go see what's wrong."792Please respect copyright.PENANARCv2h5y578
"You can go without me. I don't want anything to do with her. Not after everything she has done."792Please respect copyright.PENANAKAu8ZHfV9C
"Fine; I'll be back," I say in an irritated voice.
A few minutes later, I slowly approach her. She's sitting with her back against the bark of a tree, a picture in hand, head down, as she cries. She's upset about something and I know from experience, that it takes a lot to upset Katherine Pierce. I want to know what has upset her this much. It can't be Damon or Stefan. I would feel an eternal whole inside if either of them was dead. After all, I'm in their vampire family now.792Please respect copyright.PENANAyECHnteql3
"Katherine?"792Please respect copyright.PENANAUd085CvCsm
I kneel down slowly to eyes level with her.792Please respect copyright.PENANAPP9l3AFeSq
"You should go. Before he comes," she warns.792Please respect copyright.PENANAULZORaup79
"Who?"792Please respect copyright.PENANAaOlVPzONyH
"Klaus is coming for me. I won't fight for long. He killed my family five hundred years ago. Killing me would be a gift. And that's his intention."792Please respect copyright.PENANAdLEXwwR0kr
"So 'he' is Klaus."792Please respect copyright.PENANAwS01TGzfab
"Please go, Caroline. I don't want you hurt."792Please respect copyright.PENANA1xdcFNZZpK
I stand up.792Please respect copyright.PENANAjah0bGngUP
"Then I'll go. I'll get Tyler. He might help. It's Klaus, after all."792Please respect copyright.PENANAWq5OsiYq5h
She looks up at me and I run off at vampire speed back to Tyler.
Once I'm in front of him, I tell him, "Klaus is going to kill her. We have to do something."792Please respect copyright.PENANAZthAMB6mYy
"Why should we?"
"Because as much as I hate to admit it she's Damon, Stefan, Elena, and my vampire family; we have to do something."792Please respect copyright.PENANABkFN8x6YB4
"We don't have to do anything. I won't let you help. You should go home, Caroline. I don't want to bite you."792Please respect copyright.PENANAtruWbw7FfM
I realize what he's implying. He's going to phase. That means he must know the form Klaus will take to kill her.792Please respect copyright.PENANAHuZL2clICG
"Be careful," I advise, as he starts to phase, the noise of cracking bones splitting the air. At the same time, I smell the scents of Damon, Elena, and Klaus. And as I run off at vampire speed for home, I can hear Katherine's screams of agony as he attacks her.
Tyler Lockwood
792Please respect copyright.PENANAL6TSuH1GAf
792Please respect copyright.PENANAA6ApRdHWQr
Pain surges through me as I willingly phase into a black werewolf, bones cracking, body changing to form my werewolf self. I gasp in pain, as it continues, holding back my screams. I can't believe I'm doing this; changing to help a vampire I care nothing for. But I'm doing this so Caroline won't get involved. And I can't stand to hear the screams, as I finish the last of the transformation.792Please respect copyright.PENANADqNvpY7n5n
As soon as I'm a full pure black werewolf, I race towards her scent as her screams start to fade.792Please respect copyright.PENANAzY9rRYKMeT
I don't know what has come over me, but I suddenly don't want her to die. Where did that thought come from? I don't know, but I can't help my feelings telling me to risk my life to save her.
When I arrive at the scene, I see Damon and Elena running towards them. As they get closer, I jump onto Klaus, who in this form is a russet, hug werewolf. We roll a few times away from her, and then a distance away, we start fighting viciously. We bite and claw at each other, teeth bared in snarls and growls. To anyone, it would look like a couple wolves fighting over a piece of prey. But this is a life or death situation.
Elena Gilbert
792Please respect copyright.PENANACPvMpKdEzE
792Please respect copyright.PENANAAEXJyWH43p
As I kneel down beside Katherine, Tyler fighting Klaus, Damon stands over us. He watches the fight for a few minutes. Then he kneels down, and takes two vials of blood out from his jacket. He holds them out to me and I take them each.792Please respect copyright.PENANAg96xKUwwO4
"Klaus' blood; help her. Your friend needs help," he says.792Please respect copyright.PENANAXSmRFLN3mU
"Damon, what are you going to do?" I ask, afraid of his intentions and the outcome. He almost died from a werewolf bite a few years ago. I don't want him bitten again.792Please respect copyright.PENANAbpp1DjATqI
"I'm going to help Tyler."792Please respect copyright.PENANAsqUVeLzEFk
"Be careful, Damon," I warn him.792Please respect copyright.PENANAQN85dQduAM
He looks at me before rushing towards the fight.792Please respect copyright.PENANA78djSqoq8a
I gently lift her head and put a vial to her lips, making the blood go down her throat. She's unconscious and dying, if not worst. He bit her more than a few times. Just one bite slowly kills a vampire. I'm afraid for her life. I don't want her to die. She's the last of my family; next to Jeremy, of course.792Please respect copyright.PENANALtcCvZ6mky
When the vial is empty, I gently lay her head back down. Then I set the empty vial down. When I hear Damon say, "Come on, Klaus. We both know it's me and Katherine you want. Come on. I'm right here. Give it your best shot," I look up.792Please respect copyright.PENANA9DIHmGLWbK
I see Damon looking at Klaus. Klaus stops with Tyler, letting him land on his side, hurt temporarily. After all, werewolves heal; but not as quickly as vampires. Klaus looks back at him before racing full speed towards Damon. I want to put myself between them, but that would get me either hurt or killed. So all I can do is watch, as they disappear through the trees. And in the next moment, I hear fighting. It's vampire against hybrid. I hope he'll be okay.792Please respect copyright.PENANAaBRFeFABBb
I look down at my Petrova bloodline. I rest a gentle hand on her forehead, my free hand holding her right hand. All I can do now is wait until she regains consciousness.792Please respect copyright.PENANAafDxZHJ9Vx
I look up to see a pure white werewolf. The werewolf snarls once at me, before looking towards the trees.792Please respect copyright.PENANAi0GB97PCJK
"Rebekah?" I question.792Please respect copyright.PENANAd6M29HzdZm
She looks back at me and wags her tail once, letting me know that it's her. And as she races towards where, from the distant sounds, Damon is being attacked, she lets out a few howls and barks. I'm going to go out on a limb here, and guess that she still cares about Damon.792Please respect copyright.PENANADYSah2J625
I look down at Katherine, when I feel movement. I take my hand away from her forehead, but keep my hand in hers.792Please respect copyright.PENANAEa8LPemh2g
"Katherine, can you hear me?" I call.792Please respect copyright.PENANAYFtTfH1EUo
"Elena?"792Please respect copyright.PENANAFSedS6cSFu
She slowly comes to and I help her slowly to her feet, letting her hand go.792Please respect copyright.PENANAP6AiEvuSz2
"How are you feeling?"792Please respect copyright.PENANA8b9jyUyYJL
"Better. Thanks," she replies.792Please respect copyright.PENANAnUPz7X9K4C
She looks towards the trees, so I give her a summary of what she missed.
Damon Salvatore
792Please respect copyright.PENANATmqOI6vZqE
792Please respect copyright.PENANAz2cTUbk0Dh
My screams of pain start to die down from the attack, as everything starts to go black. I blurrily see a she-wolf ram into Klaus saving me. Then I see Elena and Katherine walking towards me; probably to help me. I realize who the werewolf is. Rebekah. And that's the last thought that runs through my mind, before blackness closes in and I see nothing, hear nothing, smell nothing, and feel nothing as my head rolls to the left.
Rebekah
792Please respect copyright.PENANAKQPBVVtd54
792Please respect copyright.PENANA1oQ0gvJ5SC
I see Damon Salvatore lost consciousness as I fight my brother. Then I see Elena and Katherine kneel beside him. Katherine gives him a vial of my brother's blood, making the blood go down his throat.792Please respect copyright.PENANAnesNw0BEsv
What do you think you're doing, little sister? he thinks to me.792Please respect copyright.PENANAtYZDR5DI8g
Saving Damon.792Please respect copyright.PENANAYqkUNOngLH
He growls and bites my right ear. I whine in pain and then we fight ferociously.
Half an hour later, as I start to stumble back, Tyler rams into Klaus and they fight. I'm hurt and so exhausted that I feel feint.792Please respect copyright.PENANAsqQRqP07o0
I hear Elena, as she races towards me.792Please respect copyright.PENANAoV0CopA1rw
"Rebekah!"792Please respect copyright.PENANAxfjjtg1HdE
With my last remaining strength, I phase into my human-looking form and stumble back, ending up sitting with my back against a tree.792Please respect copyright.PENANAaYxNATylhI
I see Elena at my side.792Please respect copyright.PENANANVz7Y16yBf
"Rebekah," she says.792Please respect copyright.PENANABNMg66bx4y
"Elena," I breathe.792Please respect copyright.PENANA1rGx18HvJf
I fight to stay awake, as my visions starts to go black and my head rolls to the left.
Niklaus Mikaelson
792Please respect copyright.PENANAfQgFUIQEll
792Please respect copyright.PENANAeFRrmJSJcd
As Tyler and I fight with teeth and claws, I see Damon getting to his feet with Katrina's help. I also see that I hurt my sister. Elena is at her side.792Please respect copyright.PENANAYM0PMAT0Pu
Instantly, once he sees her and Elena, Damon is there too, Katrina at his side.792Please respect copyright.PENANAQnxosTNmGu
A few minutes later, I see him gently pick her up in his arms and carry her, Katrina and Elena at either of his sides.
Stefan Salvatore
792Please respect copyright.PENANABTTqN6QJ0w
792Please respect copyright.PENANAizKS11FpOO
I'm having a drink of liquor, leaning against the fireplace mantle, as Damon lays Rebekah carefully down on the couch.792Please respect copyright.PENANAtRu4tfiysd
I raise an eyebrow, but before I can speak, he explains to me in summary, as he force feeds her his blood, of what exactly happened.
An hour later, Rebekah heads home alone, feeling much better.
