It was a dark night, as Katherine Pierce arrived in New Orleans. She had recently been dying of old age, but had found a way to turn back into a vampiress.

A year ago, he had broken up with her, before leaving to go help Klaus with a witch. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAd5qGMf2B
Shortly after, Rebekah had left. She was more than happy to be a vampire again, but she wasn’t 500 years old anymore. She was a new born. Also, a year ago, she had lost her daughter forever. She hated herself for not asking for the cure, because she couldn’t show her New Orleans. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdsJF9jG5Q

Half an hour later, she stood in front of the compound and knocked. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKVd7E4twd
A moment later, Elijah Mikaelson opened the door. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZT5vdxshc
“Katerina?” he questioned her. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYhdWeMsXC
“Elijah. It’s been a while. May I come in?”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMPxndwI3O
“Most certainly, but what are you doing here? This isn’t the best of times.” 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQ5ges1cGK
She walked inside and he closed the door. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpgSlD4VKr
She looked at him. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEgEiBgIVh
“I came to win you back, but I also came to help you. I heard what happened and I want to help.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54TDl2zbw7
“Very well then; you may stay, but be civil. Niklaus and Hayley aren’t in the best place right now. Hayley’s killing vampires every night and my brother’s in a dark place right now.” 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZJU1kpWQY
“I promise I’ll behave myself.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT93yqSLOML
She headed upstairs to go find a guest bedroom to stay in.581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOa2mFzJ4Ul
Elijah watched her go.581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNPn5ex0tg

The next day, she left the house to explore New Orleans on her own, while Elijah dealt with his brother and Hayley. He had filled her in on everything and she couldn’t help but sympathize with Klaus and Hayley. No wonder they were out of character. They just lost their daughter. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocvY5T7dwL

That night, on her way back, she was ambushed. She tried to overpower them, but she was a new vampire now. She didn’t stand a chance, no matter how much she fought. Then everything went black for her. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSIed6JWRc

When she woke up, it was daylight and her Daylight ring was on the table beside the big window. She was tied to a chair with vervain ropes, which made her skin burn, smoke coming from her burnt skin. It hurt like hell, but she told herself that even though she was a young vampire again, she was still Katherine Pierce. Whatever those vampires wanted, they’d never get. She wasn’t one to give information out freely unless she felt generous or they were friends or someone she loved; like Elijah or Caroline. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtL1KF2b0lv
A guy walked into the room. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HporC6L8i
“Good morning. I’m Marcel. I just want to know who you are and why you’ve suddenly come to New Orleans.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfXln3AV3u
“I’m not telling you anything. Marcel, so you might want to let me go.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcm0PMF0KS
“What’s your name?” he inquired. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSN0BCklTlG
“Go to hell. You want info? Ask the Originals and leave me out of it.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObIFxIbaxV
“No can do.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXbG2Na83D
She screamed in excruciating pain, when vervain was thrown on her. She growled with hatred towards Marcel. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOPPz2vCyg

581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDEj9arc9v
Several hours later, the vamps by the door were killed with their hearts ripped out of their chests and Marcel saw Elijah. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDQwSSP4VW
“You have something of mine. I need her back. Leave now and no harm will come to you.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlNplNxLYS
“Never.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7omKRGQw9R
“Very well then.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPcnbMNpw7
At vamp speed, Marcel was temporarily killed, when Elijah snapped his neck. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtG1AyxGOvO
A moment later, the Original was in front of Katerina who had burnt skin all over, head down, eyes closed, and smoke still coming from the ropes. Wounds were all over her and she looked beyond weak and was very pale. Ignoring the pain from the ropes, he snapped them off her wrists, legs, and middle. He then gently put her Daylight ring back on her finger and gently picked her up in his arms, before vanishing. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjvH72caFw

Once in his room, he gently layed her down on his bed. He then sat on her bedside and bit his wrist, putting it to her lips, making his blood go down her throat to save and heal her. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4irEr41JYM
After a few minutes, her wounds and his wrist healed once he took it away. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPCHT6qxi1
He put his hand in hers and rested a gentle hand on the left side of her face. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOy8dhdcphp
“I’m so sorry, Katerina. Forgive me. I should have been looking out for you.” 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYg6SjB52V
He looked down at her and waited for her to come to. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBR4FXmSYn3
581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyQyrhsljT
581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBwl5d3xHp
When she came to, she was on Elijah’s bed with him seated on her bedside, hand in hers, which made her realize that he had saved her from Marcel’s torture. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjV06HpUaoa
“Thank you,” she said, looking up at him. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteJfW86A54
“You’re welcome, Katerina. Forgive me. I should’ve made sure you weren’t in danger.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSS0mc0auCC
“It’s okay. It’s not your fault. I was the one spending a whole day in New Orleans. So where’s Hayley? I did say I wanted to help.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXy7SPYEIn
“She’s out on a killing spree again.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrBPqEv3DB
“I’m going to go find her and help her. Don’t worry; I’ll be careful.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0i7Xh21wQ
She got to her feet as did he and he helped her to her feet. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjES7javOf
“Don’t be gone too long,” he said. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2Zo2XFIZF
“I promise I’ll be back by sunrise if not sooner.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKXdSiOl9v
She kissed him on the cheek, before leaving. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5p4fx5taY

Half an hour later, she found the new hybrid. Bodies of vampires surrounded her. She reminded the vampiress of Elena when her humanity had been off. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Dkw5HfXZD
She came into view and Hayley gave a growl. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDeCVve9ZU
“Katherine.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ov3pU4x3G
“Before you do anything you’ll regret, I came to help you both. I heard. I know how it feels to get your daughter taken from you one way or another, but you don’t need to go on a feast, killing vampires because of it. Even if they do deserve it. In 1490, Nadia was torn from my arms by my father just moments after she was born for being Illegitimate. I never saw her again until a year ago. Then she was taken from me for the last time when Tyler bit her. I felt so helpless, watching Nadia die, but I was scared of Klaus; too scared to ask him for the cure.” 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmb3gRfVJZq
Hayley realized she was telling the truth. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPsIlctqFG
“You think you can help me?”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcaGJZk97e
“Both of you, yes. The pain never goes away, but there are less violent ways to get it out of your system.” 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbIva8wTr4
581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqn0jwyCQXK
581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqKbMLHsHh
Half an hour later, they had arrived back at the compound. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXR9ot1s0w
Hayley went to her room, while Kat located Klaus.581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7efkoQyk1F
Kat soon found Klaus in his room painting. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI91Xz3gcGG
“Klaus?” she called to him, as she walked into the room. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4AKCD0mLx
“Katerina. What an unpleasant surprise,” he said, looking at her, as she walked in. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqo9IlXVtz
“I came to help you,” she informed him. “I know how much you hate me, Klaus, but I want to help you. I heard what happened. Let me help you. Please.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVNlJGband
“Why would I let you help me? You are the bane of my existence.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJNbIxHIbg
“Because you need my help; I know you don’t want to admit that you need help or that you’re hurt one way or another, but I know what you’re going through. I once had a daughter too, but you never knew it because I didn’t want anyone to know about her, since it was such a painful time. She was torn from my arms just moments before I was born, because she was illegitimate. My father took her from my arms and I never got to see her. I don’t want that same thing to happen to anyone else. I’m sorry that you had to send her away with Rebekah. It’s painful losing your own child.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJYLdOdYSG
“You had a daughter?” he questioned her. 581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpborUKxNZ
“Yes. Nadia Petrova back in 1490 in Bulgaria before I even met you and Elijah. She found me a year ago, though. We rekindled our mother-daughter relationship, but Tyler bit her and I was too scared of what your answer would be to ask you to cure her. I had to watch her die, because I was too afraid of what you would do.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FqBOfCqmG
“I’m sorry for your loss. You’ve suffered enough throughout the centuries.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLWorFue4V
“Yes. Now you know what it’s like to lose your daughter, though I would never wish it upon anyone; not even you yourself.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwSCGEqLLA
“Tell me then, Katerina. How do you cope with it? Live with it?”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XXHif1kzV
“By taking one step at a time; it gets better as time goes on.”581Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZpJZ6FkdW

Later that night, Kat joined Elijah in their room. By now, they had decided to finally get back together, no matter what Klaus would say. So, Kat had succeeded in winning him back in the end. She was happy now, because of it. So, right now, they were on his bed having the time of their lives. Something they hadn’t had in centuries.
