It was a beautiful day, as Katherine stood behind a tree, watching the scene unfold. Damon was confronting Kai about getting the hell out of there. She would help if need be. He was her childe. She had sired him in 1864. Besides, she was once in love with him and she would do anything for him. And to this day, she still loved him with all of her heart. No one was allowed to hurt him or mess with him but her.662Please respect copyright.PENANAFn9Eqn95Gt
When Kai and Damon were fighting and her childe was losing, it angered her and she felt the need to protect him. Without thinking, she appeared and through Kai off.662Please respect copyright.PENANAIpcKIfbEPd
Damon looked from where he was, to see that Katherine was who had thrown Kai off him. And from the scent, she was human. It surprised him that she was trying to stop Kai. She was only human and Katherine. She didn't care about him, so why help him? Had dying changed her? Had being human given her humanity again?662Please respect copyright.PENANA8HjCuG4q7D
Katherine stood in front of Kai, looking fearless and determined. She always looked fearless when facing danger and the enemy, but deep inside, she always had doubts and fear about the oncoming fight, never knowing if she would survive the fight. That's what she felt about now, but she wouldn't let Kai sense it. Right now, the only weapon she had was a Traveler knife; specifically created to destroy Travelers. She knew he wasn't a Traveler, but it was worth a shot. And If she was going to die, she was going to die fighting to save Damon.662Please respect copyright.PENANAiLJ5QwCPG9
"If it isn't the famous Katherine Pierce, come to your childe's rescue," Kai greeted her.662Please respect copyright.PENANAfqbRnX7RYr
"Kai," she greeted back. "You're quite famous yourself for killing your siblings. That's why you're here. And all you ever wanted and still want is magic. You hate that you weren't born with magic, unlike your family. I've got news for you. Vengeance dies hard and you belong here. You deserve to rot in here for what you've done."662Please respect copyright.PENANAs3tsjgu9li
She gave a smile.662Please respect copyright.PENANArsIKt9V4pt
His mood became dark and he lunged for her. And as he did, she pulled out the Traveler knife to stab him, but he grabbed a hold of her wrist. 662Please respect copyright.PENANA6tBJZ10ZXd
She tried to fight against him and they ended up with her up against a tree, her back touching the bark of the tree.662Please respect copyright.PENANA4EzJwNz4dm
He was stronger than her, which surprised her, considering they were both technically human.662Please respect copyright.PENANAJLFo6ihUo3
She continued to fight against him, trying to get the knife in him, but he maneuvered the knife, hand still around her wrist, and it stabbed her in the side.662Please respect copyright.PENANAwJNxudWEys
He pinned her to the tree, applying pressure to her throat with an arm.662Please respect copyright.PENANA9y2qJ5lyC9
She gasped, trying to breathe.662Please respect copyright.PENANAWYAAbdxA1H
"Looks like you're next on my list," he said.662Please respect copyright.PENANAzED6tLpc3e
Everything went dim and gray for her.662Please respect copyright.PENANAV6jY0Rnvf9
Damon through him off his pain in the ass sire and snapped his neck. He then rushed to her side where she lay on her back, side heavily bleeding with the knife still in it, eyes closed, pale from blood loss.662Please respect copyright.PENANAe7EdGAcRjg
"Katherine," he said.662Please respect copyright.PENANANWVOSA9TtY
He immediately took the knife out, knowing what It did to her, considering she was descended from Travelers.662Please respect copyright.PENANAoeZB2dCjM7
He bit his wrist and put it to her lips, making his blood go down her throat to save her life, as her breathing slowed, hoping it would work. In the living world, she hadn't been able to digest vampire blood.662Please respect copyright.PENANAbXYnDhZH6D
Soon, her wounds were healed, so he took his wrist away, which instantly healed.662Please respect copyright.PENANAeJMSxO4jDa
He rested gentle hands on either side of her head and sighed in relief, figuring that she would live to see another day.662Please respect copyright.PENANAMxbo1c7RJo
A moment later, still out cold, she began to cough up the blood he had given her.662Please respect copyright.PENANATN4GzRdmk2
He looked down at her, not knowing what to do. All he knew to do was hope for her to wake up and be okay. His mission to get the hell out of dodge had now changed course. He had to help Katherine now, before he could leave.662Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9lpwsnH9V
He put the Traveler knife inside his jacket and then gently pulled her into his arms, getting to his feet and heading for the boarding house.662Please respect copyright.PENANAXEIuHQ19Pu

Once in the living room, he gently layed her down on his couch. 662Please respect copyright.PENANATofo15ZWIG
As he sat in his chair, shot glass of Bourbon in hand, watching her insensible form, he wondered how she had come here. Why was she here? Why was she human, when she had died in Elena's body? What would happen when she woke up? If she died, would she go into transition and become a vampire again? If so, would he have to teach her control, or would she be able to deal with it all on her own? Would she live to see another day? Did she care about him, even though she hadn't shown it since 1864? Did she love him? Would they ever learn to get along?662Please respect copyright.PENANAQcm9DBmRyG

She didn't know how long she had been out, but when she came to, she was on Damon's couch with him watching her from his recliner.662Please respect copyright.PENANAxKPQSOP3ZD
"You're awake," he greeted.662Please respect copyright.PENANAX7tlM2BIdS
He went to sit on her bedside on the couch.662Please respect copyright.PENANAlVRKs54SSA
She slowly sat up and looked at him.662Please respect copyright.PENANARn8MN56stq
He looked at her, as he rested gentle hands on either side of her head.662Please respect copyright.PENANARG6YmmZO4z
"How are you feeling?"662Please respect copyright.PENANAkLTzbwmOJa
"Like I just got stabbed and nearly killed," she answered.662Please respect copyright.PENANAHTCgv3jnGs
"You were pretty close. I healed you, but you're body rejected my blood."662Please respect copyright.PENANAerpTB6VId0
"Great," she said sarcastically. She didn't feel like dying of old age all over again.662Please respect copyright.PENANADsk2fvAOfG
"Don't worry. We'll find a way to stop it."662Please respect copyright.PENANAYaFkoXv1Vn
"There is no way. If there was, don't you think I would've found one the first time around? The only solution is to put me in another body. Why do you think I jumped into Elena's? I wanted to live just a little longer. Then Nadia died and my life didn't mean anything anymore."662Please respect copyright.PENANAbFfyxd7wto
"Let's go one step at a time. Okay? First, let's get you back to health. Then we can get out of here and stop this from happening to you again."662Please respect copyright.PENANApkT6w952R2
"I need blood to restore what I lost first. Then I should be okay. Right now, I'm just tired," she replied.662Please respect copyright.PENANAWYLNCNZc6Q
"Get some sleep," he told her, before kissing her on the forehead and taking his hands away from her head.662Please respect copyright.PENANAAYGemekzVh
662Please respect copyright.PENANAvYGgQIPs4E
662Please respect copyright.PENANAeumLnpPyAg
Soon, she was back to health and they were alive again. They even found a way through a powerful witch how to stop time from catching up with her. So she was saved and Damon and Katherine got back together.662Please respect copyright.PENANAg39TIEDlR6
