Settling In

"Do you mind if I leave you with her?" Rebekah asked a woman. It was the woman Kaitlyn saw earlier who was speaking with that man. They didn't help her.

The woman looked at Kaitlyn and nodded her head, "she does speak English however I am not accustomed to how much English she can speak." Rebekah said before looking at me, "she will bath you and then we shall send in a tailor to get you measured." Rebekah said and gave a small smile. She felt sorry for the small girl, her family was dead and her sister was on her brother's death list. She just hoped Klaus didn't harm the girl anymore.

Rebekah left the girl with the woman. Kaitlyn looked at the woman and frowned, "come then child," the woman said softly and gave a small smile.

Kaitlyn shook her head stubbornly, "you didn't save me," Kaitlyn muttered and looked towards the ground.

The woman looked at her shocked, "I could not, no. No one disobeys Master Klaus, I am sorry." The woman apologised.

"Why does everyone fear him?" Kaitlyn asked confused. Her big brown eyes holding nothing but sadness, they seemed empty.

The woman sighed, "he… he is powerful. Come now child, let's bath you and then find something for you to wear before the tailor comes," the woman murmured and Kaitlyn followed her into a bathroom. It held a large bath that was filled to the brim with hot water. The woman looked at Kaitlyn and she frowned, "what do I do?" Kaitlyn asked confused.

"Undress and then get into the bath," the woman guided and turned her back on the girl.

Kaitlyn nodded her head slowly before getting out of her dress and quickly padded over to the bath, she lifted her leg up and got in before sliding down and then sitting back up. Kaitlyn swirled her hands around the water making a little wave slightly. She giggled which caught the attention of the maiden, the woman smiled slightly at the child before going over to her. She picked up a bowl and got some water in it and poured it over her long black curls that were filthy.

"What is your name?" Kaitlyn asked, making sure her English was correct.

The woman hummed in response, "I am not allowed to give my name out. I am your maiden."

Kaitlyn frowned, "please?" she asked and looked up a the woman making her eyes get a little bigger.

The woman smiled, "between us, it's Lillian." The older woman replied.

Kaitlyn giggled, "that's pretty! I wish my name was pretty. My sister has a pretty name," Kaitlyn said her voice suddenly turning into a whisper.

Lilian frowned at the small girl, "what was her name?" Lillian asked softly.

"Katerina," Kaitlyn whispered.

Lillian stopped washing the girl's hair before she carried on, "that is a beautiful name," Lillian whispered and Kaitlyn began washing her body with a bar of soap that Lillian handed her.

"How old are you, if you don't mind me asking," Lillian asked softly as she washed her hair.

"7 autumns. This autumn I shall turn 8," Kaitlyn replied her face held some sorrow to it.

"Smile," Lillian said quietly and Kaitlyn shrugged and imagined her mother scolding her, "I miss my family," Kaitlyn mumbled and wiped a stray tear.

Lillian sighed, "come. Let's get you dressed."

She helped Kaitlyn out of the bathtub and wrapped her in a soft material to help dry her off, Lillian went over to a large bed and took the dress of the bed, it was a little big but it would do until she was tailored.

"Here you go, dear one. I know it's a bit big, but it will do until we have you tailored," Lillian said softly and helped Kaitlyn into the dress. She did it up at the back, tying it successfully before grabbing a comb and began brushing through her knotty hair. Once Lillian had done so, she pulled Kaitlyn's hair back and braided it with strands framing around her small face. Kaitlyn smiled as her fingers worked their way softly in her hair before she tied to with a blue bow. Kaitlyn looked down at her green dress, it dragged a little on the floor but not too much.

Lillian handed over some flat shoes but Kaitlyn shook her head and went over to her muddy boots. Lillian smiled a little, "I want to wear these," Kaitlyn said, "please?"

Lillian nodded her head, "let me clean them up first," Lillian said and took the boots off Kaitlyn. Kaitlyn looked at the huge bed before looking around the empty bedchamber, Lillian had gone off to clean the boots. Kaitlyn gave a small smile before jumping onto the bed, she stood up on it and began jumping up and down with a small smile on her face. Suddenly someone entered and she stopped jumping when she noticed it was the demon, "what are you doing?" he asked annoyed.

Kaitlyn bit her lip not knowing how to respond, "I was jumping?" Kaitlyn said quietly.

Klaus rolled his eyes and flashed in front of her. He gripped her arm and pulled her off the bed harshly, "I know that." He snapped and looked around while Kaitlyn tried getting out of his hard grip, "where is that maid?" he asked annoyed.

"Cleaning my boots. Let go of me!" Kaitlyn yelled angrily and struggled against his hold.

"Do not raise your voice at me," he shouted back.

Kaitlyn glared at him before stamping her foot on his which made him let of her. Not because she hurt him, more for the fact that he was in shock. Kaitlyn stuck her tongue out at him before quickly running out of the bedchamber. Kaitlyn's feet touched the cold castle floor as she quickly ran away, she passed Rebekah in the hallway who looked at her confused, "Kaitlyn! Where are you going?" Rebekah called after the girl.

Kaitlyn didn't reply. She carried on running until she reached the end of the hallway that held a door, her heart was beating fast so she quickly opened the door and stepped inside before bumping into someone. Kaitlyn looked up and saw Kol. Oops.

He raised an eyebrow at her, "what are you doing?" he asked a little amused.

"I think I angered your brother," Kaitlyn responded when the door flew open. She quickly hid behind Kol's legs while he chuckled.

Kol looked at Klaus who stood in the doorway, his face confronted in anger.

"Where is she?" Klaus snapped before he looked at Kol's legs and saw Kaitlyn peering from behind his waist.

Kol shrugged, "behind me. She's a funny little thing, I like her." Kol laughed.

Klaus growled and took a step forward and Kol felt Kaitlyn tremble behind him, "Nik come on. She was probably only joking," Kol defended.

Klaus glared at him, "do you see anyone laughing?"

"I laughed." Kol said with a small smirk.

"If you carry on you will find yourself in a box," Klaus said threateningly.

Kol took a step forward so he faced Klaus, "and if you keep throwing about empty threats, you may lose your reputation as the feared Original," Kol said staring Klaus off.

Klaus growled again before looking at Kaitlyn, "go, now." He ordered.

Kaitlyn nodded her head and moved away from Kol who looked at her. Kaitlyn gave Kol a small smile, "thank you," Kaitlyn whispered before leaving his bedchamber.

Klaus watched her go before looking back at Kol, "stay away from her," Klaus growled.

"Or what?" Kol challenged, "she is only a child. I can't do anything, maybe when she's older I can. She does look like her sister, I wonder if she will be as good in bed as her sister," Kol chuckled.

Klaus gripped Kol around his neck and slammed him into the wall, "don't even try it. I will not have her ruined because you need some plaything Kol, I need her to break the curse." Klaus snapped before dropping Kol.

Kol rolled his eyes, "calm down brother. I am only joking… Or am I?" Kol teased before quickly disappearing before Klaus could slam him against the wall again.

"What did you do?" Elijah asked giving a small sigh when he saw the young girl enter the library with a guilty look on her young face.

"Nothing," Kaitlyn replied quickly. She looked around the library, she had ended up here by chance.

Elijah raised an eyebrow, "right. Tell me what have you done Kaitlyn?" Elijah asked.

Kaitlyn gave a small smile, "I may have angered your brother," Kaitlyn replied.

Elijah sighed and closed the book he was reading. He was trying to find out how Kaitlyn couldn't be compelled, the only reason he could come up with was because she has vervain in her system.

"Why?" Elijah asked.

Kaitlyn made her way over the chair and sat down beside him, she fiddled with her dress, "he annoyed me. I was jumping on my bed, and he grabbed me," Kaitlyn mumbled and rubbed her wrist.

Elijah frowned and took her wrist in his hand and gently inspected it, there was a slight bruising but not too much, this was also the wrist she had fallen on earlier.

"It will clear in a few days, now understand this. Niklaus has a terrible temper, so does my brother Kol. Rebekah, yes but not as much and she seems to like you. Just try not to be bad understood?" Elijah asked.

Kaitlyn nodded her head, "I'll try," she murmured.

"Now come, let's get you tailored and we shall have supper," Elijah smiled and stood up.

Kaitlyn stood up eagerly however Elijah noticed the sadness deep within her actions. Elijah took her to the tailor who measured her before he let Kaitlyn pick out the colours she would like. She choose, blue, purple and green, Elijah also choose a few other colours before they left the tailor. Elijah looked down at her bare feet and raised an eyebrow.

Kaitlyn grinned a little, "Lillian was washing my boots before Klaus came." She said her English stuttering a few times.

Elijah nodded his head and saw Lillian walking pass them holding her boots, Elijah called for her and she came over. She smiled at Elijah and curtsied before Lillian handed Kaitlyn her boots. Kaitlyn sat down on the floor, and slipped on some fabric over her feet before slipping on her boots she tied them up with a small smile on her face before she stood back up and saw Elijah's amused look.

"Come on then child," Elijah said and guided her down the stone stairs.

They made their way into the dining hall. Kaitlyn saw Rebekah, Klaus and Kol already there. Kaitlyn hid behind Elijah slightly when she saw Klaus' look towards her but Elijah encouraged her to walk forward. She walked up to a big seat by Rebekah and Elijah pulled it out for her before she jumped onto the seat and sat down correctly like her mother had taught her. Elijah pushed the chair back in. As Kaitlyn was only 7 years of age, her feet didn't touch the ground so she carelessly swung them back and forth.

Servants came in with the food, their face blank of any emotion. Kaitlyn frowned when he handed her a bowl of soup. Well she thought it was soup. It had weird things in it. Her face turned into one of disgust, Kol who was sat opposite her, stifled a chuckle at her reaction.

Kaitlyn looked at one of the servants, it was a man of maybe 19, "excuse me sir," Kaitlyn said.

The servant looked at her confused and then looked at Klaus who was frowning at Kaitlyn, "yes?" he replied after a moment.

"What are these?" Kaitlyn asked and used her fork to pick out a strange thing.

"Turnips, My Lady," he replied and bowed a little.

"My name is Kaitlyn, not my lady," Kaitlyn said confused.

Rebekah and Kol shared a look of amusement while Klaus looked like he wanted to bang his head against the wall, "what's your name?" Kaitlyn asked.

The servant looked at her shocked, "I do not have a name to give, Lady Kaitlyn," he replied softly.

Kaitlyn frowned, "why do you not have a name?" Kaitlyn asked.

"My mother died before she could name me," he replied quietly.

"Enough with the questions." Klaus said his voice echoing in the hall, "go," he ordered to the servants who nodded their heads before quickly leaving.

Kaitlyn frowned at him, "you are rude." Kaitlyn mumbled.

Klaus rolled his eyes and gripped his fork in his hands, "I will send you away without anything to eat," he snapped.

Elijah sighed, "Niklaus," he warned.

"You killed my momma and papa before they could have supper," Kaitlyn retorted and it fell silent across the dining hall.

Rebekah looked at the young girl in sympathy. Kaitlyn stood up, "excuse me," she mumbled and quickly ran off.
