Chapter One: Don't Forget About Me

Katherine Pierce blinked once then twice as she waited for her vision to settle, when it did not she let out a series of curse words as she tried to ignore the sharp in her head and the even worse pain in her ribcage. Why was she still feeling anyhow? The pain had to be over by now, she had vampire healing abilities for God's sakes and besides she had, had worst enemies who had giving her a well better ass kicking that poor, pathetic Elena Gilbert. Then why did Katherine felt like she wanted to curl into the nearest hole and die while at the time chugging down the whole jar of Tylenol?

Katherine caught her reflection in a nearby door and she could hardly believe what she saw. Her dark curly brown hair was messy and there was more than a curl or two undone. Her bottom lip looked swollen and then were a small bruise on the left side of her forehead. And she was pretty sure that she was limping and just standing in her five hundred dollar boots was pure torture.

She looked over her shoulder and saw that the hallway on the high school was empty. Where the hell had Elena run off too? For God's sakes she could be such a baby! Katherine managed to stand up and the realization hit her, why she wasn't healing, why she felt like every single bone in her body was broken, why Elena Freaking Gilbert had left her here to rot in the grounds of her old pathetic high school.

The cure.

It was now so stupidly obvious to Katherine that she didn't know why she hadn't thought of it sooner. She suddenly remember everything that had occurred, every drastic and horrible little thing. The fight that she and Elena had had, Katherine almost killing Elena, and Katherine being so close before Elena had shoved something inside her mouth. The cure.

She let out a small whimper of pain. She was a human. She was a good forsaken human, what the hell was she supposed to do now? She stared at her reflection again in one of the nearby mirrors, but the bruises weren't going away. Katherine's heart sunk. She had been so incredibly stupid, she should have just killed Elena on the spot and now dawdle like a complete idiot.

Katherine limped slightly and went to go grab her purse. She checked inside, she just had a lipstick, some cigarettes, hundreds of dollars' worth of makeup and her wallet. She fished it out even though Katherine already knew what would be inside it's contents. She had a twenty-dollar bill and a spa ticket. She didn't even have a freaking ID for crying out loud let alone a social security number, what the hell was she supposed to do now? She took a step forward and left the school.

Katherine Pierce was not a quitter and she was not going to start now.

Elena Gilbert closed the door behind her not sure what had really happened in the pass twenty-four hours. She had gone from a vampire without humanity to a vampire with humanity, to announcing her love to Damon, to turning the dreaded Katherine Pierce into a pathetic human. It was a miracle that she hadn't thrown up her lunch.

"Hey, you." Damon Salvatore said softly as he approached her from behind. He gave a her a soft kiss on the cheek and Elena flinched. Damon noticed this and frowned. "What's wrong? Is everything ok?"

"Everything is fine," Elena said tightly. Before everyone had announced that she was sired to Damon all she wanted was for him to love him, now that she had her humanity back she should want to leap into his arms, but the only thing that she wanted to do right now was get away from him.

"Did you say goodbye to Jeremy, I assume that's that what was taking you so long. Bonnie put the veil back up."

"Oh, my god Jeremy." Elena closed her eyes. How could she had been so stupid. She had been too preoccupied thinking about the whole I-turned Katherine-into-a-human that she hadn't even given Jeremy a second thought. She was a horrible sister. "Damn it, Katherine." It seemed like Katherine was always finding a way to ruin her life.

"Katherine?" Damon frowned. "What did that bitch do now?"

"What did Katherine do?" Stefan asked tiredly as he came into the room. He looked exhausted, well losing the love of your life to your brother would do that you.

Elena's brown eyes darted back guiltily. The cure could have been for her or for Stefan if Katherine hadn't ruined it. "Ok, don't get mad, but I sort of don't have the cure anymore."

"What?" Both Stefan and Damon echoed. "What where is it?"

Elena didn't answer.

"Damn it, Elena answer!"

"I gave her the cure," Elena blurted out. "I had too, she attacked me at the school. I didn't know what else to do. I panicked. She almost killed me- "

"You used it in self-defense," Stefan said. "Katherine was attacking you, but I guess this means that Katherine Pierce is now human."

"Katherine Pierce human," there was a small smile on Damon's face. "Well, I guess you're right Karma is a bitch."

Klaus and Rebekah's house. She did not know why the hell that particular house had come to mind. All she knew was that she wouldn't exactly been welcome at Elena or Caroline or Bonnie's houses. She knew that Klaus and Elijah had left to New Orleans chasing some wild goose chase and Rebekah had left to Europe with Matt. So she was sure that the house would be empty. They wouldn't have any furniture she guessed, but at least she would have a roof over her head.

She opened the door of the house and gave a silent prayer of thanks that at the very least it was empty. She slipped inside and when she turned around to lock the door she felt a palm on her shoulder. Katherine turned around saw that Klaus Mikaelson was standing right there with a cherish cat look on his face. "Well, well what do we have here?"

Katherine felt her throat tightening. "Klaus? What are you doing here? I thought you were in New Orleans with- "Katherine stopped short. She couldn't say his name, it hurt too much.

Klaus shrugged as if Katherine and him were old pals. "Caroline's graduation was today."

Caroline, of course Katherine couldn't believe that she had been so dumb. Klaus practically worshipped at the blond's feet. Katherine suddenly felt Klaus pressed her against the wall. "Now dear Katerina, I'm losing my patience. What are you doing? Answer quickly or I'll be using your head for a spear."

Katherine choked out something.

Klaus frowned and suddenly he pulled away and looked at her strangely. "You're human."
