Summary: Revised version of S4 when the Founding Families went after Rebekah and others. But Kat comes back to town.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cM274IEPT
It was a dark night, as Katherine Pierce staggered into the Mikaelson house and upstairs.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQMRXmm57J
When she got to the room, she leaned against the threshold to stay on her feet.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOp2DdAZVUU
"Rebekah, where's Klaus?" she asked.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRik1MVHSw
Rebekah set a bag of blood on the table, still angry after the fight with her brother. She then turned around.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9huHPF9IY2
"Why? And what are you doing here?" she asked in a not so nice voice.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayxgOkE2Yj
"I was bitten by the hybrids he sent after me. I need your help. I need his blood; the cure. Please, Rebekah," she said, almost begging the Original sister.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDeUtxWQZ8
"He's not the only one that'll cure that. So can I," Rebekah revealed to her.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3v1ol0DuXv
"Then help me," Katherine said, half walking half staggering into the room.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75FwgFWnbq
Rebekah was instantly in front of her. She bit her wrist and held it out to her.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcxubHRpM4
"Drink."652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcxg2pyuei
She watched the doppelganger vampiress drink.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuIZHZVlE4
Once she had had enough, the vampiress stopped and looked at her.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQc1RkjZaw9
"Thank you."652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhR1fE71j3Q
"Don't make me regret it," Rebekah responded.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jVOawFn0i
"You won't. I promise."652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkBkzuR8BM
"Good."652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3ZXxLvlNy
"So what have I missed since I've been gone?"652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTv6WzHi89I
"A lot; Alaric was turned by mother and alerted the council. They want us all dead I guess. But Alaric is dead now, Stefan is trying to get back to his old habits, and I killed Elena and almost Matt. I wanted Alaric dead and Elena was tied to him. I thought Alaric killed my brother. Now Elena's a vampire. Apparently, she had Damon's blood in her system. And I didn't know that."652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwR850ooQB6
"Wow. I missed a lot," is all she could say to that. Since Rebekah hadn't known, she couldn't be mad at her for Elena turning into a vampire.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnmqKl3H33
Suddenly, arrows started flying.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY31KTBkaW6
"Get the blood and vervain! Just in case! Then we have to go!" Katherine yelled and grabbed the blood, putt it in a bag. Rebekah obeyed and did the same with the vervain, putting it in the same bag.
They made it outside the Mystic Grille, before everything started to unfocus for Katherine, and Rebekah grew pale and weak. Rebekah had taken an arrow in the middle of her chest, while Katherine had taken an arrow in the leg.
Rebekah slid down the wall to sit down, while Katherine set the bag down and knelt beside her.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgTmHxjJMq
"Rebekah, hang in there," she encouraged the Original.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQO7wHv2c5n
She took out Rebekah's cell phone and called one of the Salvatore brothers.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrNeUeycVQ
"Rebekah?" Damon questioned in surprise.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifdIrhf7Va
"It's us," Kat answered him.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tziISk7z6
"What are you doing with Rebekah?"652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZMd9SR7b3
"She saved my life. Then we had to leave. We got shot with arrows; me in the leg and Rebekah in the chest. But we're both still alive. We're right outside the Mystic Grille. We need help, Damon. Something was on them. You should try and keep her awake, while I go see if anyone's in there."652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIQqQp0WBp
"Will do," he replied to his sire.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerW4tsqfYN
She got to her feet and used the wall to hold herself up, as she staggered towards the door and opened it enough so they only saw one hand, her upper body, and unhurt leg. Then she leaned on the door and scanned the crowd within, stopping when she saw Tyler Lockwood and Caroline Forbes.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Rll6olijR
Caroline saw Katherine.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzjRxu83tX
"Tyler," she informed him. "Katherine's back. Something's wrong."652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzvcPTMWNh
He looked over his shoulder to see her. Caroline was right. The vampiress didn't look good. It looked like she could barely walk.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAE9vCqQp2j
They got to their feet and briskly walked towards her, stopping once they stood in front of her.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcR69YAiOE
"We need help. Rebekah and I were at Klaus' place. She cured me before arrows got us. Damon's on his way."652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrdKuIbPB9
"Let's go," Tyler said.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLvA1Yojkz
All three walked in, Caroline closing the door behind herself.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyHiyVQBPz
They stopped by Rebekah.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVy4YPQrvO
"Damon, Tyler and Caroline are here," Kat told her childe.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pBELE9LnF
Kat started to get blurry vision and swayed.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8ZI7S77Qz
"Caroline, see what you can do for Rebecca," Tyler said. He then added, "You better hurry, Damon. Katherine's not looking that great."652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiH17RBoqp
Tyler stood in front of Kat, while Caroline knelt beside Klaus' only sister.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngKlUkm2RK
"Katherine, hang in there. Damon's coming," Tyler instructed the Petrova vampiress, unsure of what to do or what else to say.
Damon hung up soon after.
Not long afterward, Damon arrived. He instantly went to stand in front of Katherine.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGeHxiNlTV
"Tyler, get Rebekah to Elena's. I'll meet you there. Caroline, get that arrow out of Rebekah."652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlPmnDgTBn
Both obeyed, leaving him with Kat.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpuFFWQ6tC
He pulled the arrow out of her leg and she gasped in pain, as her vision got worst.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEY7sk4QF1
"Kat, look at me. Focus. Kat," he tried with no avail.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwU7ho0u3V
He caught her, as she lost her balance, unable to stand. And as he picked her up, he realized how weak she was. He felt her rest her head on his shoulder and wrap her arms around his neck.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANi9rkMzIQ
"Stay awake, Kat," he instructed, as he sped towards Elena's at vamp speed.
Once inside, Damon gently sat her in Elena's recliner, while Tyler carried Rebekah upstairs to the guest room, which was formerly Ric's room, and before that, Elena's Aunt Jenna's room. Tyler and Caroline stayed with Rebekah, while Damon stayed in the living room with his sire. Elena stood by and watched.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2oPsBlxwT
Damon knelt in front of his Sire.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1ZY7l8t9R
"Kat, stay with me."652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ57AYsfyxL
"What happened?" Elena questioned her sire.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEH6vnhyUIP
"The Council shot them with arrows. Something's on them. We need Meredith over here. She might know what's on them and how to cure them. And you need to call Klaus. He'll want to know about his sister."652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoRnexFLBW
Elena left the room to get her phone and call Meredith Fell and Niklaus.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSq3cM9mcY6
Damon kept trying to keep Kat awake.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0xvG9jX7Z
When Elena came back, she had Klaus on the phone on speaker. She set the phone down on the end table.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9deoszZIg
"How's Katerina?" Klaus asked, having been filled in.
"Not good," Elena replied.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrL5PH801o
"Let me try then," Klaus said. "Katerina, you have to stay awake. Think of your family. If you die now, you would've been fighting for nothing. You would've survived this long for nothing. You've been fighting for 500 years, Katerina. Don't give up now. You can't. We won't let you die," he told his former doppelganger, meaning it all. He had trust and faith in her now. And he cared about her. He then added to Elena, "I'm coming over to help. You'll have to invite me in. After this is all over though, you can uninvited me." He then hung up.
652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS62RAcssUh
Half an hour later, he arrived and Elena invited him in. He walked into the living room and Damon stepped away, watching as he knelt in front of her.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrvnRMzKf6
"Katerina," Klaus said, looking at her.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTn2LyTpst
She looked back at him, not knowing why he suddenly cared if she lived or died.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtSrhXZjlG
"Klaus," she said back.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvUYl4LQcM
Meredith soon arrived and started looking at the arrows.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXE55nQnE8x
Damon and Elena left the room to leave them be.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28gc0cBJOG
Elena and Damon entered the kitchen where Meredith stood by the bar.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54jsw69vd2
"The tips are laced with a high volume of vervain," she told the vampires.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEQXTeZ2d1
"Then we feed them blood and they'll get better soon," Damon announced.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wvROM3ogy
"We can try that," Meredith agreed.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTJwLYRmHm
So they did and both got better.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzxXmzHKPi
Afterward, Klaus and Rebekah went home, as well as Tyler and Caroline.
652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAH4QIRN1f
Later, when Damon was at home and Kat had stayed behind, Kat sat on Elena's bed while Elena wrote in her diary.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDOpSUsHxX
"How are you feeling? Rebekah told me what happened. Are you adjusting?" Kat asked, concerned for her descendant.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKmvWhwb89
Elena closed her diary and set her pen down, before turning around in her chair to look at her.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrx1DOs25N
"Why do you ask?"
"Because I know how it feels. It's different for everyone, but I want to help you. You're my family, Elena. I may not show it, but I care. I really do care."652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsZF3dHNNo
"Then you should've been here to stop all this mayhem. I didn't want this. Where were you, anyway?"652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgaOUSkC24
"I'm sorry, Elena. I would've been here if I didn't have hybrids on my tail. But I'm here to stay now. I'll help you in any way I can."652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyuEalCTZ6
"You want the truth, Katherine? I'm tired. All I try to do is fight and do the right thing. But Damon said I have to drink from the vein. I don't want to and it's killing me, trying to not drink from the vein. He told me I can't drink animal blood and I can't. He said I could only drink from the vein and that's all I can do. I can't even keep Damon's blood down. What am I going to do?"652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieZlRsPxB1
"Elena, did you say that when Damon says you can't do something, you can't do it?" Kat questioned.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPchpFy5hp
"Yeah. Why?"652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnN62vs4EJ
Kat was silent, but Elena saw Kat knew something.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmToTMWLKI
"It can't be," Kat whispered.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpJic00LFE
"What?"652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLZrjvMOw7
"Elena, I don't know how to say this but…"652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASdlIAnEeM
"But what?"652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7Mkh2eFIu
"You're sired to Damon."652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftRgFJs3OS
"How?" Elena questioned with horror and shock.652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUZrTqd66B
"I don't know, but it happens once in a while. It can be broken. We just have to convince him to free you from the sire bond."652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBGBRM6ERB
So they did just that and she was released. But that didn't change the connection Elena had and felt for Damon.
