Chapter 1 - The Phone call
Katherine paced around the oak floor of the Salvatore boarding house back and forth. She listened for any signs of activity before making her next move. When she knew that no one was listening, she took out her phone. "This can't be done alone" were her thoughts as she dialed.
It rang for a couple minutes until heard a similar southern accent pick up.
"Well took you long enough to call. I was starting to think I would have to wait another 100 years " The voice said annoyed but Katherine new it was hidden the joy.
Katherine smiled an actual smile hearing her voice. This moment in time was prolonged. Oh how she yearn to be with her with them. Last time she saw them, let along heard their voices had been over a century ago.
"Hello to you to Mila moya. How is Mardi gras, and is Esme around?" she asked surprisingly sweetly as she lied down on the guest room bed. Katherine secretly wished. No prayed she was.
"Oh lord it has been just horrible I don't know how I'll survive" She said with sarcasm making Katherine laugh and her along with her. "But seriously New Orleans is great never been better even after centuries; I never tired of the view," Said the girl with excitement catching her breath as she gazing from the balcony watching the city. She was a breath-taking beauty dirty blonde tresses, olive skin and mischievous ocean blue eyes.
"And Esme is fine, but a little lethargic at the moment. She's in bed those I could wake her if you want to talk to her." She said turning her gaze from the city lights toward the petite frame in one of two beds. Her lengthened dark bronze hair shining, pure porcelain skin and behind closed eyelids hidden were the most dazzling emerald eyes. "No it is alright she needs her rest." She said disappointed in her tone. She was hoping to talk to both of them. But hey one out of two isn't that bad. "Why did you call so early?"
But then she quickly realised why she called, her tone that moment changed from overjoyed to dark and business-like in a second. "I need a favour from you both its argent." Katherine ordered slightly. "That depends why?" She said simply she own tone changing hardening. "Why can't there be a time when she doesn't remind her of her and like HIM" Katherine thought shivering just thinking about …. She just shook her head of past mistakes focusing on the now.
There was a long pause from the other side of the phone, during it she walked inside from the balcony to the hotel room. She sat down on the other bed next to her sister quietly. Katherine then spoke once more asking "Have you ever heard of Mystic Falls, Virginia"? "I don't think so I migh….. Hold the phone; please don't tell me you're sending us there to a repetitive small town really of all places we could go." She asked with slight annoyance as she played with the bed sheets. Beginning to turning toward Esme then Katherine said something that shocked her to the core.
"No sweetheart it is where Klaus will finally meet his end, I need you both this can't be done alone." Katherine answers and hears her breath hitch. "Really?" She questions regaining her breath. Hoping it isn't some sick joke on her. Was she dreaming they will actually be together for good? No more running. No more hiding in the shadows. No more long distance phone calls. No strings attach.
"Yes." That answer sealed their fate. "Okay you have my attention." She said a smile creeping over her lips. "I need you both to come down here for back up. I will let you know what parts you play are as soon as you get here." She waited for her response until she heard her voice on the end of the phone. "We will call you when we get there," said the dirty blonde girl. "Excellent we need all the help we can get". She said there was a small period of silent until she spoke from the other line.
"We miss you, I miss you a lot." She said sadly "I know. I miss you and Esme very much but think about all the fun we will have when are together. We will be a family I promise." Katharine said sincerely. It was the truth. She really did miss her girls and it didn't help that this Klaus business had kept them apart for so many years.
"You better uphold your promise!" She said with a playful tone. "What kind of Pierce/Petrova would I be if I didn't keep my word?" Katherine teased and she laughed quietly as to not disturb her sister.
"Alright, I've gotta go. I will talk to you when we reach Mystic Falls."
"Alright, Mila moya. I love you." Katherine said sincerely.
"I love you too Mamma."
