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.

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. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YYWfg6GGP

Half an hour later, she stood in front of the compound and knocked. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6TFInUjdV
A moment later, Elijah Mikaelson opened the door. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7S1JrVJ0W
“Katerina?” he questioned her. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHNJQa7B6u
“Elijah. It’s been a while. May I come in?”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkPGSoO2jV
“Most certainly, but what are you doing here? This isn’t the best of times.” 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz72RdAGocY
She walked inside and he closed the door. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbJRJLlYyf
She looked at him. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYxNtLT8MU
“I came to win you back, but I also came to help you. I heard what happened and I want to help.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9Ht9UivS3
“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.” 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcAJKzoYLA
“I promise I’ll behave myself.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUDIfQ6fqA
She headed upstairs to go find a guest bedroom to stay in.621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdexzStXA9
Elijah watched her go.621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenkJ12hCos

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. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKb0tTIjcMy

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. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvvLEjZDHm

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. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGDgyBsxsI
A guy walked into the room. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrrVsfucWK
“Good morning. I’m Marcel. I just want to know who you are and why you’ve suddenly come to New Orleans.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcBx5JOjvE
“I’m not telling you anything. Marcel, so you might want to let me go.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUcGlebE98
“What’s your name?” he inquired. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1QNxFaRC9
“Go to hell. You want info? Ask the Originals and leave me out of it.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwuBqV64zt
“No can do.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqLXOPYmhE
She screamed in excruciating pain, when vervain was thrown on her. She growled with hatred towards Marcel. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YvN7oRjmg

Several hours later, the vamps by the door were killed with their hearts ripped out of their chests and Marcel saw Elijah. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4okw8Oj5xP
“You have something of mine. I need her back. Leave now and no harm will come to you.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJULJJEUJuq
“Never.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSeSaZbE9R
“Very well then.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbP3vIu1tn
At vamp speed, Marcel was temporarily killed, when Elijah snapped his neck. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25ecgc6OIt
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. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukwrj65vmK

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. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BswevCHcN
After a few minutes, her wounds and his wrist healed once he took it away. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSC6T2iGDm
He put his hand in hers and rested a gentle hand on the left side of her face. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BMGtzXOlO
“I’m so sorry, Katerina. Forgive me. I should have been looking out for you.” 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRm6asR60iE
He looked down at her and waited for her to come to. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAC4m2HNQk
621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQMkwdEBwG
621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1j6g9NWvfM
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. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQkc7HJRh8
“Thank you,” she said, looking up at him. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCf7CVWmEK
“You’re welcome, Katerina. Forgive me. I should’ve made sure you weren’t in danger.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD53V7Cboll
“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.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIp7pn8k0OG
“She’s out on a killing spree again.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHicvISqOwO
“I’m going to go find her and help her. Don’t worry; I’ll be careful.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WRpcwlgwW
She got to her feet as did he and he helped her to her feet. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSutEc2y71
“Don’t be gone too long,” he said. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2YAIt0EqM
“I promise I’ll be back by sunrise if not sooner.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK78ix2fohN
She kissed him on the cheek, before leaving. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTJXqycDjn

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. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3Z7yTvMLo
She came into view and Hayley gave a growl. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FedUM3nPN
“Katherine.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuP25FbHIK
“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.” 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1l7KYkffg
Hayley realized she was telling the truth. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjsh1nlW6Y
“You think you can help me?”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tgYYunizK
“Both of you, yes. The pain never goes away, but there are less violent ways to get it out of your system.” 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡituKWGh7qN
621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRtCBCkJ8t
621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbOwg5nmwO
Half an hour later, they had arrived back at the compound. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblePwrBuAs
Hayley went to her room, while Kat located Klaus.621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9W1f6EHSP2
Kat soon found Klaus in his room painting. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2Z1RtZ2tB
“Klaus?” she called to him, as she walked into the room. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhabWUeLhih
“Katerina. What an unpleasant surprise,” he said, looking at her, as she walked in. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJP16AP5KK
“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.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqt9Gpib2dK
“Why would I let you help me? You are the bane of my existence.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmazkpgyhBd
“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.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJaEbnzjfJ
“You had a daughter?” he questioned her. 621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPHO5FL0ti
“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.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAbjqCYGE0
“I’m sorry for your loss. You’ve suffered enough throughout the centuries.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Py6gVP9zR
“Yes. Now you know what it’s like to lose your daughter, though I would never wish it upon anyone; not even you yourself.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ29uMPUYWJ
“Tell me then, Katerina. How do you cope with it? Live with it?”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeinw8Gfl2
“By taking one step at a time; it gets better as time goes on.”621Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49Pci7LBkI

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.
