It was a dark night in Mystic Falls, as Katherine Pierce walked the route to the Salvatore boarding house. She stopped when she smelled the smell of heavily flowing blood. She knew whom it belonged to, so she followed her scent.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqGtgBMXd4
She stopped a distance away in a deserted parking lot.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGU2t7I6OXg
As soon as she saw Rebekah Mikaelson feeding from the present doppelganger's neck, she through her across the parking lot at vampire speed and, as Rebekah was thrown, she caught an unconscious Elena Gilbert from hitting the ground. Then, vamped out, she bit her wrist and put it to her lips, making her blood go down her throat, as she knelt on the ground and held her in her arms.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNztHDIDwO
Rebekah got to her feet and saw the scene. As she started to walk towards them, Katherine looked at her and growled menacingly in warning.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzNSDu4eu4
Rebekah stopped a distance away when she got growled at.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3K1uuexSoD
"Well, well, look who's so protective," the Original commented.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyHdXjiXUQ
The former doppelganger gently took her wrist away and layed her gently on the ground on her back, before she got to her feet.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAO1109WBct
"Why wouldn't I be?" the vampiress growled at her.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiSojsJMMt
"I thought you despised her is all."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQJJD46UPw
"I don't despise her. She's my family and you nearly killed her."
At vampire speed, the vampiress pinned Rebekah to a tree with a hand tightly around her throat, letting her anger loose.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAEA9O8Bhv
"You can't kill me. I'm older than you," Rebekah said through the pain.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xJMshlhZD
"No. But I sure as hell can hurt you. You should learn a few things about family before you start killing, or, in this case, almost killing someone else's family," she growled at the blond vampiress. Then she through her to the ground and twisted her arm behind her back.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kQYgJrGCV
Rebekah gasped in pain.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVf7RHEBtl
"Stay the hell away from my family, or I will dagger you myself," the ex-doppelganger growled at her, as she did so, warning her for future reference.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qIBmkiY5t
With her arm still behind her back, the former doppelganger got her to her feet before she through her. This time she let go of her, as she through her.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1jXBqpJZs
Elijah Mikaelson arrived and stopped between the distance of his only sister and Katherine. As he did, his sister began to painfully get to her feet. Then he went to stand in front of Katherine.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1ufng2ble
"What's going on, Katerina?"809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWr1kBB3Vq
"Keep your bitch of a sister away from my family," she answered in anger. She then added more calmly, "Keep her in line."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5P86zXTsp
"What happened?" he asked calmly.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAg9MsOfJwT
"Your sister nearly killed Elena."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUpKZzEwEC
"I promise that she will be punished."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QmqsRX2lp
"Thank you, Elijah."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEwLlSIPs2
"You are welcome, Katerina."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgoaNat4g6
Elijah looked over his shoulder at his sister and calmly, but with a hint of anger in his voice said, "Rebekah, go straight home. There will be consequences."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtRAKjssmT
He watched her vanish, before he looked at the vampiress again.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQlx5pjChq
"Are you okay? Did she hurt you?" he asked calmly with worry, figuring that she and Rebekah had most likely had a fight.
When she had been human, he and Trevor had both loved her. To this day, he cared deeply for her, even though he wasn't madly in love with her anymore. He cared for Elena as well. Elena was supposed to be under his protection. He felt like he had failed in his duty, knowing that Rebekah had almost killed the doppelganger.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwoxH6ysME
The vampiress looked back at him and tried to hide what she felt now. She was in pain. In the fight with Rebekah, she hadn't felt any pain. She had been too filled with rage at her to notice.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWY7a6TpNl
"I don't know," she replied truthfully.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqcQeo6KWI
Like her human family, she knew she could trust Elijah with what life she had left. She didn't have to lie to him.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsIXLvLsx3
"Katerina, what…?" he started to ask, but stopped when he smelled blood; her blood.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0h30iz8HL
She saw him start to look at her for where she was hurt at. As she saw that, she realized she couldn't hide her pain. Then she felt herself quickly weaken.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIlHktXKph
Elijah put gentle hands on her waist to try and keep her on her feet, as he saw her weaken and start to lose her balance.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnC8A4nYcpK
"Katerina," he said calmly, though inside, he was scared for her. He wanted to help her in any way that he could.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0lrt5rMmV
"Elijah," she said, as everything blurred. She then put gentle hand on his shoulders to do what she could to stay on her feet. It was to no avail though, as everything went black.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHzraKj6JL
As she collapsed, Elijah caught her with a hand between her shoulder blades, an arm holding her up.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCq2IRpaUTU
"Hang on, Katerina."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAm4jFmwJW
He knelt down and pulled her gently into his arms. That's when he felt it. He pulled the small dagger out of her lower back and tossed it to the ground. He then bit his wrist and put it to her lips, making his blood go down her throat to help her heal faster.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0l6pEID8Y
A few minutes later, he took his wrist away and it instantly healed. As he held her close, she slowly started to come to.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslRU9o23PE
When she was awake, he helped her to her feet.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopnSo101Au
"Thank you, Elijah."809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtLbiV9e9z
"You're welcome anytime, Katerina."
Elijah watched her, as she went over to Elena to get her home, before he went to his own home to deal with his sister and punish her for what she had done and almost done.809Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVRA6by5Tb
Later, everybody lived happily ever after as they could with Elena and Kat fully recovering.
