A short story about the times Elijah and Katherine spent in each others company. I do not own vampire diaries .
'The doppelganger has been sighted.' Said Klaus pacing around the room,'the timing is perfect.'
'What will we do brother?' asked Elijah, watching his older brother.
'You, brother, will make her acquaintance.' Said Klaus his eyes dangerous, 'praise me in front of her. Have her come to a fair few gatherings.'
'And you?' asked Elijah carefully, 'what will you do?'
'I shall court her when the time is right.' Replied Klaus, 'that time will be in two full moons by which time I shall undoubtedly have whatever I require for the sacrifice.'
'Are you certain you want to go through with the ritual?' asked Elijah standing up.
Klaus fixed his brother with a deadly glare.
'Has it been unclear to you Elijah how long I have waited for this?' snarled Klaus, 'once the sacrifice is done I shall be more powerful than any vampire or werewolf.'
'It is clear.' Replied Elijah his face darkening, 'where is the doppelganger staying?'
'The doppelganger has a name Elijah.' Said Klaus smirking, 'Katerina Petrova.'

People glided across the great ballroom. Old ladies gossiping. Young ladies walking with airs and graces. Elijah walked into the room and looked around. There were numerous beautiful ladies here looking at him with curiously interested eyes but Elijah searched the room for one particular young lady. A young man with dark hair made his way to Elijah.
'Lord Elijah.' Said the man, bowing.
'Trevor.' Replied Elijah nodding, 'Where is she?'
'Right this way.' Said Trevor, his face eager.
Both of them made their way through the crowds of well dressed ladies and gentleman.
As they neared a young lady with her back turned Trevor called her.
'Katerina! '
The lady with dark hair turned to face them, her dark eyes curious as they turned to Elijah.
'May I introduce the Lord Elijah.' Said Trevor.
Recognition passed Katherine's eyes as she looked more carefully at the nobleman.
'My Lord.' Said Katherine bowing and offering her hand, 'pleasure to meet you.'
'The pleasure is all mine Katerina.' Said Elijah brushing his lips against her gloved hand.
