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. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRn7aWsLg4

Half an hour later, she stood in front of the compound and knocked. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7o5htBfr0
A moment later, Elijah Mikaelson opened the door. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjP0dR4kzM
“Katerina?” he questioned her. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeQFKrGVT5
“Elijah. It’s been a while. May I come in?”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCs2DhpMl0
“Most certainly, but what are you doing here? This isn’t the best of times.” 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV32jD9Dz2g
She walked inside and he closed the door. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ548o4ZKRMY
She looked at him. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACRxMalZRo
“I came to win you back, but I also came to help you. I heard what happened and I want to help.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDm3GnVoMm
“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.” 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rgR4AePFK
“I promise I’ll behave myself.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1i3v4QT8BC
She headed upstairs to go find a guest bedroom to stay in.594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrtt3H1Z4l
Elijah watched her go.594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNz8YJq7pz

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. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4c02eCFHA

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. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGI4fpAyWGF

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. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7OaUZPuyM
A guy walked into the room. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL86jzyGiYy
“Good morning. I’m Marcel. I just want to know who you are and why you’ve suddenly come to New Orleans.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IodEWqkDC
“I’m not telling you anything. Marcel, so you might want to let me go.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYC4LALQGAz
“What’s your name?” he inquired. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQDzong67E
“Go to hell. You want info? Ask the Originals and leave me out of it.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlDGefDM5R
“No can do.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡex4H7laSdt
She screamed in excruciating pain, when vervain was thrown on her. She growled with hatred towards Marcel. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXsqEMgmGe

594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkFcrZ1TIz
Several hours later, the vamps by the door were killed with their hearts ripped out of their chests and Marcel saw Elijah. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDtG12ClDK
“You have something of mine. I need her back. Leave now and no harm will come to you.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aiLnfxZSe
“Never.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Qv5l7TqL9
“Very well then.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWdrByPXYo
At vamp speed, Marcel was temporarily killed, when Elijah snapped his neck. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeuVi5eHFJ
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. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmflt5KVNc

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. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBpHSBtDL0
After a few minutes, her wounds and his wrist healed once he took it away. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11ldsbXFvH
He put his hand in hers and rested a gentle hand on the left side of her face. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjTGdnwowx
“I’m so sorry, Katerina. Forgive me. I should have been looking out for you.” 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsb9rw85Wk
He looked down at her and waited for her to come to. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg15x7wKzT0
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXn0NSLKnM
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkhqVMSPNe
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. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Hw7gp2RB6
“Thank you,” she said, looking up at him. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrIhaCe89f
“You’re welcome, Katerina. Forgive me. I should’ve made sure you weren’t in danger.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPHwo1Lwgc
“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.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKUm9o2n2N
“She’s out on a killing spree again.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8Sm1ZUFCb
“I’m going to go find her and help her. Don’t worry; I’ll be careful.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpu0t5q3d6
She got to her feet as did he and he helped her to her feet. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzczc1qgrfA
“Don’t be gone too long,” he said. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHm4lVZpQd
“I promise I’ll be back by sunrise if not sooner.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4h2wTO4sj
She kissed him on the cheek, before leaving. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyscI3l8TsZ

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. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDo6J0Ztl26
She came into view and Hayley gave a growl. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6t36fr1Lp
“Katherine.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xc73Pngza
“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.” 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJP5sbCcId
Hayley realized she was telling the truth. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bm2IbbBjA
“You think you can help me?”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwui0IZ8IlI
“Both of you, yes. The pain never goes away, but there are less violent ways to get it out of your system.” 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBasRYRE1q
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKN6ooc2dPv
594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXrw1EZWHA
Half an hour later, they had arrived back at the compound. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2zH4YLN4x
Hayley went to her room, while Kat located Klaus.594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovyFb2q64O
Kat soon found Klaus in his room painting. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30yotfwbh0
“Klaus?” she called to him, as she walked into the room. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsf2rkt7gp
“Katerina. What an unpleasant surprise,” he said, looking at her, as she walked in. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXv90ERIit
“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.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxFXfziIjE
“Why would I let you help me? You are the bane of my existence.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXQlXMe6Ly
“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.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gqcFb0DGF
“You had a daughter?” he questioned her. 594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyM31JTxWJc
“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.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9f5RMMHLIm
“I’m sorry for your loss. You’ve suffered enough throughout the centuries.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBphbu5GqZ
“Yes. Now you know what it’s like to lose your daughter, though I would never wish it upon anyone; not even you yourself.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOSuWONgwf
“Tell me then, Katerina. How do you cope with it? Live with it?”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNy0hmLo2R
“By taking one step at a time; it gets better as time goes on.”594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavADyIbret

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.
