A/N: Pretend that Originals don’t burn and disintegrate after being killed.
*Pennsylvania*
All I want is nothing more
To hear you knocking at my door
‘Cause if I could see your face once more
I could die a happy man I’m sure
When you said your last goodbye
I died a little bit inside
I lay in tears in bed all night
Alone without you by my side
But if you loved me
Why’d you leave me?
Take my body
Take my body
It was a beautiful day in an alleyway in Pennsylvania, as she stood there, watching Elijah walk away. After Elena has said something, she didn’t know what, to him, he seemed to not believe anything she said. Sure, she lied to people a lot, but mostly to survive. When it came to Elijah, she would never lie to him. And as she told him, she loved him. He was her first true love. She was upset and a little offended that Elijah would accuse her of having alternative motives. Her only motive was to get him to give the cure to Klaus, so she would finally be free of him hunting her down. However, she knew after what Elena had said and after she’d killed the last of Elena’s family, she had to earn his trust back. And she knew what to do to do that. She would give him the cure and let him know that it was his choice to choose what would transpire next between them. Deep down though, she was afraid that he would choose Klaus over her, because he was so family oriented. He always chose his family over her. She didn’t understand why he would sacrifice love over family, when all Klaus had done in the past was keep all his family members from having a life of their own by sticking them in coffins if they disappointed him. She wanted to keep Elijah, but she knew he was way too loyal to Klaus to stay when she wanted him to stay with her. Especially, when she knew he was conflicted right now.
All I want is
And all I need is
To find somebody
I’ll find somebody like you
Oh oh
So you brought out the best of me
A part of me I’ve never seen
You took my soul and wiped it clean
That night, she intercepted him on a sidewalk and told him that he was right. She’d been lying so long that she was starting to believe her own lies, but she wanted to remember who she used to be, since she didn’t remember who she used to be. She then gave him the cure and told him he didn’t owe her anything. Then she walked away.
*Mystic Falls*
Our love was made for movie screens
But if you loved me
Why’d you leave me?
Take my body
Take my body
All I want is
And all I need is
To find somebody
I’ll find somebody
Later that night, Katherine went to Mystic Falls to the Mikaelson mansion to find out what Elijah’s choice was. She’d left a note in the living room for Klaus, which meant he was leaving for New Orleans. All she needed now was for Elijah to stay. She’d lost so much. She’d lost pretty much everyone she loved. She didn’t want to lose Elijah. He was the reason mainly that she kept going. Without him, she probably would’ve given up or turned off her humanity centuries ago. Or she would’ve probably just ended her existence, tired so much of running from Klaus.
When Elijah showed up in front of her, since she knew him so well, she knew without words that he was going to follow Klaus in New Orleans. Since Kat was so afraid of him, that was somewhere she couldn’t go. Not while Klaus still had revenge on the mind when it came to her. Elijah could and would protect her from him, but Klaus would probably do unspeakable things as usual. And Klaus being a hybrid, Kat didn’t have much of a chance against him if it came down to a fight. One bite from Klaus and she was dead.
“Elijah, please. It’s our turn,” she pleaded with him.
He rested a hand on the side of his face. It seemed like he wanted to kiss her, but he didn’t. Instead, he just said, “Katerina,” and kissed her on the forehead. He then told her goodbye and, in an instant, was gone.
Kat stood there, upset. She knew it was partly her fault, but it was also partly Elena’s, she felt, so she enacted some revenge on her. She ambushed her in the school hallway and kicked her ass, demanding to know what Elena had said to him while her humanity had been off. Then, when Kat tried to kill her, Elena shoved the cure down her throat. Kat hadn’t known that Elena had the cure in her pocket, so it was unexpected.
Oh
If you loved me
Why’d you leave me?
Take my body
Take my body
All I want is
And all I need is
To find somebody
I’ll find somebody like you
Oh
When Kat woke up, she left town after stealing a vehicle. However, tired of looking over her shoulder, afraid that her enemies would find her and do whatever they wanted with her, she went back to Mystic Falls and asked for Damon’s protection. He’d once loved her the most, after all, and she still loved him. However, if she ever told him that, he’d think she was lying, since she’d lied to him before. Damon didn’t grant her protection though, and when Silas got inside his head, as she assumed he did, Damon tried handing her over to him, but she fled.
After the cure was out of her fully after Silas had fed on her, she came back to life and later, began aging. The plus side though, was her long-lost daughter, Nadia, found her, and they reconnected. And she finally understood Elijah’s blind loyalty and faith to Klaus. She’d do anything for Nadia, but then Tyler bit Nadia. She didn’t ask for the cure though, which she was mad at herself for, because she was so afraid of Klaus. Also, the other reason was that Nadia just wanted her to be happy and not give anything up just to save her. Kat would’ve switched positions if she could, but she couldn’t. She was new at the information that she was descended from Travelers. All she knew was how to body jump, which was why she was inside vampire Elena. She didn’t want to die. However, she knew she would die anyway, because they found out about what she did. So, in the end, she died from the Traveler knife and got swept away by a black mass. Then, the next thing she knew, she was in a prison world and had met Kai. When she refused to work with him to leave the prison world, she was tormented by him, but she survived. She found a way out of the prison world and left.
*Present Day*
As soon as she was out of the prison world and back in the real world, in her own human body, she knew exactly where she was. New Orleans. She had hoped for Mystic Falls. She didn’t know how long she’d been dead, so she looked for something that would tell her what the year was. And when she found a newspaper that told her the year, she knew that she’d been dead for a very long time. Before she’d died, she’d known about Klaus accidentally having a daughter with Hayley, though at the time, Hayley had still been pregnant. She’d known about it, because Sophie had always been a friend to her.
She walked around the French Quarter in hopes of finding out about what had happened. She didn’t know if Marcel was still alive, but she knew Marcel had attempted at getting rid of Klaus but hadn’t succeeded. She could only assume that Klaus had won. She knew Marcel, because she’d met him after Mikael had caused ruins throughout this city. She’d helped Marcel rebuild, but everything else had been his. She’d brought Klaus here, because she didn’t like what Marcel had done when it came to rules. She didn’t believe in killing witches just because they did magic. She also didn’t believe in banishing wolves to the bayou and putting a curse on them. However, after a century or two, she and Marcel had become enemies after she’d tried to make him change the rule about the witches but had failed. She’d also tried to get rid of the rule about not killing or feeding on locals and not killing vampires. She just hoped Marcel wouldn’t do anything drastic. Especially, when she was human. Although, during her time in the prison world, she’d learned how to make her Traveler magic active, so she could somewhat protect herself if she needed to.
After everything she’d learned from Sophie, she hoped nothing else had happened. If anything happened to Elijah or Klaus, since she’d forgiven Klaus finally for everything, she wouldn’t be happy. Sure, they were Originals, but she knew even Originals could get hurt and killed. And she knew that Klaus’ daughter was a teenager by now. She also knew that she was special.
After a while of walking through the streets of New Orleans, she spotted both Elijah and Klaus, but upon seeing the state of them, she knew they weren’t alive. Either she had to find a way to bring them back, she knew, or she had to go to a witch or a Mikaelson.
As she knelt by Elijah, she called one of the Mikaelsons she’d known off and on, assuming he was alive again. After all, all Mikaelsons tended to come back to life.
“Hello, darlin’,” Kol greeted her.
“It’s been a long time, Kol. I’d love to chat like the good ol’ days, but I’m in the French Quarter. I need a witch, which I assume you have at your disposal, but first, what did I miss? I just escaped a prison world, only to end up here and find Elijah and Klaus both gone.”
“You’re right. I do have a witch. Nik had a daughter with a former werewolf turned hybrid, Hayley. Elijah fell for her and when she died for Hope, it was too much for Elijah. Nik did it to keep everyone safe from The Hollow.”
“Well, I’m not leaving them like that. We’ve always found loopholes before. Plus, I found out before I died that I’m descended from Travelers, so I have magic. And since I had to protect myself from Kai, I learned how to make my magic active.”
“Aren’t you full of surprises, darlin’. I’ll send Davina your way. See you soon.”
She thanked him and hung up, before looking at Elijah. Even dead, she assumed he could hear her.
"I don't know if you can hear me or not, but I need you to come back to me."
Half an hour later, Davina showed up where Katherine was knelt by the two Originals.
Kat looked at her.
"You came. Let's get this done."
About twenty minutes later, Davina had brought them back and Kat had fed them her own blood.
Half an hour later, Davina had gone and Elijah and Klaus woke up.
"Katerina," Elijah greeted, once she'd helped him up.
"Elijah," she greeted back. Then she added, "Let's go home."
"Indeed," Klaus agreed with a smile.
After a week had passed, Kat had put The Hollow in a prison and she and Elijah had gotten back together. She and Klaus even became friends and she'd reconnected with Kol. So, so far, everything was great in New Orleans.
It was a beautiful day, as Kat walked through the French Quarter, not thinking Marcel would see her, but when she sensed a presence, she stopped. Then she turned around to see Marcel.
"Long time no see, Katherine," he said with a smile, though she knew he was only playing nice.
"Indeed, it has been, Marcel," she replied.
He put a hand on her arm.
"I think you know why I'm here," he replied, talking about why he'd found her.
"Yes. You're here for payback. Go ahead," she replied, knowing she couldn't really protect herself against a vampire. She also knew he wouldn't get his revenge fully, because she knew Elijah would tear his vampires apart if she was harmed.
"Let's go."
She walked with him, letting him take her to wherever he planned to take her to.
Half an hour later, she was in a wooden chair tied with rope. Marcel had taken her to an abandoned warehouse.
Several hours later, Elijah found out what Marcel did, and went to the rescue. Then, after slaughtering Marcel's vampires and entering the warehouse, he found her.
In a blur, he was at her side. He then snapped the rope off her and rested a hand on either side of her face.
"Katerina? Can you hear me, Katerina?"
After a moment, taking a chance since he knew now what had happened years ago with the cure, he bit his wrist and made his blood go down her throat. Amazingly, it worked. He was happy at that, since this meant that she'd live.
A few days later, she was fully recovered, so they got their happy ending.
