"Thought I heard you here," Katherine said.

Elena had entered the dinning room to see Katherine there holding her baby the next morning. The room was large as was the dinning table. It sat 12 people. "And little miss Elena is a vampire again. How do you like that Elena?" Katherine sneered.

"Is Elijah here?" Elena asked instead.

"Oh, I heard about that too," Katherine mentioned. "You'll find that fact to be handy around here, Elena. You're the progeny of an Original. No one will want to cross you."

"What do you mean?" asked Elena softly.

"You'll find yourself to be stronger than before. It will protect you from anyone wanting to challenge you."

"And they'll want to do that, why?"

"It's a constant power struggle between the Originals and the people who live here. Witches especially. You'll find that being the progeny of Elijah will deter those wanting to attack you. You're still new, and that stands out to them."

"Why tell me this?" Elena still didn't trust Katherine.

"I know what it's like to be in the shadows of the Originals, Elena. I ran for over 500 years from them. Especially Klaus. And I always had Elijah's eye."

The last bit threw Elena off. She knew Elijah and Katherine had been involved. But just how far back do they go? "You had his eye...well then, where is he now?"

"Elijah still has a dagger in his chest," Katherine replied. "But I'm sure Klaus will release him soon. Klaus won't want the responsibility of dealing with my daughter, and well, you."

Elena moved closer, curious about the baby. "She's beautiful," Elena says softly.

"She'll have my hair," Katherine murmurers.

"Elijah's lips," Elena said. Her comment got her a sharp look from Katherine.

The two doppelgangers studied Raina a little more before Elena sat down and ate the breakfast brought out for her.
