That all depends to you guys, and the reviews you will give me :3 I apologize now for any grammar or spelling mistakes, like my other story I don't have a Beta, because it's BOTHERSOME. No offence to anyone.

Elena sat down on the ground, and leaned against the tomb door, Katherine was just a few inches away from her, but due to an invincible barrier she was unable to touch or hurt Elena. Not that she would, after all Elena is her doppelgänger, if she hurt her, Klaus will make her pay for it; and she also has a bottle of blood, which Katherine desperately needs.
"What do you want to know?" She asked, also leaning against stone wall as she watched Elena push a plastic cup of blood with a twig.
"I want to know who your running away from? And why are they after me?" Elena asked straightforwardly, she wasn't planning on staying long. She's going to ask a question, and she wants Katherine to answer her, however she also knows it won't be that easy to make her sing the melody she wants to hear.
"Klaus." Katherine replied calmly, drinking the blood out of the cup before putting it back down on the ground and watched Elena pull it with a twig.
"I know that. But why?" Elena asked, rolling her eyes out of annoyance.
"Your the doppelgänger." She answered back, even though she very well know that Elena already knew that.
"Katherine stop playing games. I'm giving you my part of the deal, and you should do the same." Elena said, crossing her arms and raising her perfectly plucked eyebrows.
"Fine fine." Katherine replied with a dull voice. "Back Bulgaria when I was still human, round about..15th Century...I had a baby at your age, and I wasn't married...so..it was.." she trailed off as she tried to think of a proper word "disgraceful."
Elena looked at Katherine with intrigued eyes. She pulled her legs, and clutch them against her chest, leaning her head on her knees.
"So I left Bulgaria...or kicked out." She said shrugging her shoulders, as if it was the most normal thing to happen. "and went to England, where I had to learn how to adjust. It wasn't easy..." She trailed off...
Katerina walked through the busy street of England where all women dressed up so elegantly, while she wore a brown ripped dress, and dirty white apron around her waist. She sighed watching men adore the beautiful maidens, while all she gets were look of disgust. She wrapped her arms around her stomach when she walked pass a tavern, where their were lots of foods and drinks on a large table, it reminded her of how hungry she was. It's been already a week since the last bread she ate, another more week and she'll die for sure. She looked down, not noticing the man walking towards her, she accidentally bumped into him. "Oh, I am terribly sorry good sir." She quickly apologize, her Bulgarian accent very visible in her voice. Everyone around looked at her, and started whispering.
"It is fine, fair maiden." The stranger replied in a soft calm voice. "I am should be the one to apologize. How dare I hurt such a flower.."
His words was enough to make her blush. His words meant to her more than anything, but then again what does she have? she was treated so badly on her way here to England, back in Bulgaria her father was very well respected, but to this new world she was no better than a slave.
"Please, let me repay you." The man said, as he bowed down and held his hand out. Katerina was so flattered, it was the first kindness she received.
"No need sir, I must be on my way.." She replied sadly, she didn't know why she refuse, she was so hungry,but really needed to go. She has to find a place to stay for the night, and if she's fortunate enough maybe a job to keep her alive for a few days.
"Please, I insist. I'm on my way to a birthday celebration. I would hate to go alone, and you seem to be a very fine maiden." He said, as he smiled warmly at her.
Katerina looked down at what she was wearing, it made her frown "I'm afraid...I can't. I don't have anything to wear..."
"I shall take care of that." He replied, with a huge beam on his face. He has never seen anyone so beautiful, and so full of innocence before. "The name's Trevor my lovely." He introduced himself softly, and bent down to kiss her hand. "And yours?" He looked at her, Katerina could see care and love in his eyes.
"Katerina..." She replied in a sweet voice.
"Beautiful name for a beautiful girl." He commented. He gently put a hand on her waist and gently pushed her inside a dress shop. "Give her the finest dress you have." Trevor said to the owner of the shop.
The owner provided Katerina a dark violet dress, she also asked her daughter to do Katerina's hair. While Trevor waited patiently.
Katerina stepped out a dark room, and walked towards Trevor, with a shy smile curling in her lips. "I don't think I should go...I don't fit in with those beautiful women in the streets.." She said, her voice just above a whisper.
"Nonsense." Trevor said, standing up from his seat, and looked at Katerina from head to toe.
"You are too kind to me Trevor.." Katerina said, walking towards him and placing a soft kiss on his cheeks. "I thank you." she smiled sweetly at him.
"Such beauty deserve to be treated well." He said to her, pulling her chin up so she'd look at him in the eyes "No one can make you feel inferior, without your consent my dear." He added softly, as he smiled back at her. "Now shall we?" He asked her, as he held his arm out and entwined Katerina's arm with his.
"We shall." She replied, and walked out of the dress shop with Trevor by her side.
"So you went to the party?" Elena asked her, her eyes very focused on Katherine. Elena couldn't believe how innocent Katherine was describing herself back then.
"Yes I did." Katherine replied calmly and gulped down the remaining content in the plastic cup.
During the celebration Katerina stood by the window, she didn't know anyone and didn't know who to talk to. She sighed and tried to look around for Trevor, but failed. He told her that he was just going to greet a friend of his, but after that he was nowhere to be found.
She remembered what Trevor told her earlier, no one can make her feel inferior without her consent. She took a deep breath and decided to walk up to someone and start a conversation. Tonight she wasn't the filthy peasant, she was Katerina Sofia Petrova.
She was surprised at how her conversation with people was going, no one even suspect that she was just a lowly peasant. Her conversation with a doctor was interrupted when she felt gentle hands touch her shoulder, she turned around to see who was the owner, she smiled upon seeing Trevor with someone.
"Hello." She said to the man Trevor motion to introduce to her with a sweet voice, she smiled so innocently that no one would believe her if she announce she had a baby at 17. She blushed at the long period of time he stared at her.
"I'm sorry...You just reminded me of someone.." He said apologetically.
"Katerina, meet Lord Elijah.." Trevor finally said, he felt slightly jealous at how Elijah looked at Katerina, but said nothing about it.
Katerina slight dropped her mouth open, but before she look more stupid than she already does she said quickly "Pleasure to meet you my lord.." she took his hand and curtsied to him.
"Pleasure's mine.." He trailed off as he kissed her hand "Katerina.." He said her name so perfectly, that she almost believed he was from Bulgaria.
"Elijah was a lord?" Elena exclaimed, with her jaw on the ground.
"He was, a charming one at that. Well except for the blood sucking part." She said, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone. "So anyway..." She continued...
Elijah asked Trevor if he could leave them alone for a moment, he was hesitant at first but obeyed his master eventually.
"So I assume my lady is from Bulgaria?" Elijah ask, as they both walked around the castle.
"How did you know?" Katerina asked, amaze at how good his initiative were.
"I can tell from your accent." He replied to her, he chuckled at her naivety.
"I see.." She said, she could feel her blood running up to her cheeks. He was so handsome, his dark brown eyes was so captivating, so full of...time. She stayed silent, looking down. She felt slight a shamed, she really felt out of place. This wasn't where she belong, yet she's here anyway...
"Do not worry Katerina, it is nothing to be ashamed of." He added to her when he noticed the sudden changed to her behaviour. Elijah smiled warmly at her.
Katerina let out a soft sigh and forced a smile "Do not worry my lord, I am not ashamed.." She said, but her eyes was telling him otherwise. The warmth from his smile made her heart melt.
"I see." That was all he could say to her.
"So when do I get the chance to meet the birthday celebrant?" She changed the subject quickly, she didn't want to make things more awkward with him that it already is.
"Well he has the tendency to be...fashionably late.." Elijah answered her question, with a hint of annoyance in his tone. "Speaking of.." He begun when he saw his brother emerge from a room.
Katerina moved her gaze to where Elijah was looking, that's when she saw a beautiful man, with soft blonde hair, blue eyes and masculine frame, however the smile on his face was so cold...
"Elijah, how could you hide this beautiful creature from me." He said from a distance as he walked towards them, he smirked at Katerina.
Katerina couldn't help flinch seeing his cold smirk. It felt so insincere, unlike the one she received from Trevor and Elijah.
"Katerina, meet my brother Niklaus." Elijah introduced his brother and smiled warmly at the frightened Katerina.
"Pleasure to finally meet you my lord." Katerina said politely and curtsied to him.
"I hope so." He replied to her, he grabbed her hand and kissed it roughly. She flinched at the contact. The way he grabbed her hand wasn't so gentle as Trevor's touch, or the way he kissed her hand, it wasn't as soft and warm as Elijah. It was full of coldness, it felt...like death to her.
"Take a walk with me Katerina?" Klaus asked her, however it sounded more like an order. Katerina was too scared to refuse, so she softly nodded her head and gave Elijah a desperate look. The way he looked down made Katerina frown. She could see that Elijah didn't want to upset his brother, who was she to ruin brotherhood?
"Do you mind if I court you Katerina?" He spoke as he lead her outside the castle.
"Court me?" She asked with surprised dancing freely in her tone, she was flattered that a lord wanted to court her, however the fact that it was Klaus saddened her. "You just met me...How do you know I am worth your time my lord?"
"You are beautiful. That is how I know." His answer was heartbreaking. She forced a smile and nodded her head, she was in no position to refuse a lord.
Katerina looked around her surroundings and frowned when she didn't know where she was. "My lord, where on earth are we?" She asked, she seemed to be standing inside a maze.
"Please Katerina, call me Klaus. " He said to her, smirk curling up in his lips upon hearing her question "Somewhere private my dear...somewhere...more.." He trailed off as she moved closer to her "intimate.." he finished, his face just a few inches away from hers.
Katerina knew where this was going to end, and she wasn't ready for it. Not that she hadn't done it before, but she just met Klaus, and she didn't like the feelings she get around him. "My L- K-Klaus...this is hardly the place.." She said blushing, she looked away from him.
"Why?" He respond, as he tightly wrapped an arm around her waist, pulling her close to him.
"It's your birthday celebration, w-we should be inside..." She tried to reason out, but he seemed to have made up his mind.
"That is true my love, that is why you should give me a treat." He said with a naughty smirk, he looked at her with lust filled eyes. Katerina flinched. My Love? He was just courting her.
"Klaus please.." She said softly, as she pushed him away as gently as she could with the circumstance.
"You dare to deny me what I want?" He said, his voice filled with anger and annoyance.
The look in his eyes greatly frightened Katerina "Please don't get angry with me..." She replied, her voice just above a whisper.
He pulled her body tightly close to his "You shall be treated like a princess if you give me what I want, when I want it." He purred in her ear, she wasn't turned on at all, in fact she was scared more than ever.
"Klaus.." She trailed off, she tried to escape his grasp but he was incredibly strong. He pinned her against the hedge and begun to plant open mouthed kisses on her neck. "No..Please.." She begged, but he ignored her. He continued to kiss her neck, before moving his lips to hers, he kissed her roughly. His lips felt cold and hard to her.
"Oh my gosh...He did that to you?" Elena asked sympathetically. Now she understands why Katherine was so distant towards others, and why she keep herself from being drawn into someone.
Katherine simply nodded and looked down. "Yeah.." She whispered, but audible to Elena.
"Klaus." A familiar voice said from a distance. Katerina narrowed her eyes to focus on the figure standing mere far from her position with Klaus. Elijah. If she didn't feel ashamed earlier, well she certainly do now. Of all people, it had to be Elijah.
"Must you ruin my fun brother?" Klaus remarked after detaching his lips away from Katerina. The look in Elijah's eyes was so full of disgust and somehow pain...
"This is not the place to play your games." He said coldly, giving Katerina the daggers. She looked down sadly. "Come." He motioned for them to leave.
Katerina opened her mouth to say something, but words got stuck in her throat. She closed her mouth and looked down, she wiped her lips, and walked back to the castle.
Klaus has insisted Katerina to live in the castle with them, she had to accept as she had no where to stay. A servant lead her to a room, and gasped at the sight of it. It was very well furnished, their was a king size canopy bed, the covers were made from the finest silk.
Katerina laid on the bed with tears streaming down her cheeks. She didn't know why she cared so much about how Elijah sees her, but the way he looked at her tonight, it was almost as cold as the way Klaus looks at her. Little did Katerina know, Elijah's room was just a door away from hers.
Elijah could hear Katerina's weeping in the other room, he felt remorse at how he reacted seeing Katerina with his brother. "You do not care Elijah. She is just a human, her life means nothing." He whispered to himself.
