Pairings:

Kat/Klaus

Kat's POV

I run through the forest at vampire speed and agility through Mystic Falls, Virginia. I'm running for my life from a vampire. Trevor. He hates me so much, he wants to kill me. I'm scared for my life, as I'm running through the dark night through the forest. I can't let him catch me, or I know he'll kill me for sure. I used him back when I had been a new vampiress. Now he wants me dead. I know this and I can't let that happen. My first rule of survival. Never die. My second rule of survival. Always stay one step ahead of the enemy.

Suddenly, I get thrown and I land on my back on the ground. Then he pins me against a tree, one hand around my throat tightly, the other with a stake.

"Any last words?" he asks.

"Go to fucking Hell!" I say.

"Nice choice of words," he comments.

He raises it and plunges it into my chest and everything goes black.

Klaus' POV

I'm going for a walk through the woods on my way home, when I smell blood. Not just any blood. Her blood. I head towards the smell of her blood.

A few minutes later, when I arrive, I see Trevor walking away and I instantly know that it was him that did that to her.

We fight and I soon kill him.

I go and kneel beside her.

"I'm so sorry, Katerina," I say before pulling out the stake.

I gently pull her into my arms and bite my wrist, putting it to her lips, making my blood go down her throat.

Kat's POV

I stand on a grassy plane, as I look down at my village. I don't remember there being a hill by my human village, but things have probably changed over there since I was human. I sense someone that I never would've thought I would ever see ever again after she was killed so many centuries ago.

I turn around and I'm right as always. I'm Katherine. I'm always right. There she is. My mother. I know I'm dreaming, but I can't help it. Humanity is a vampire's worst weakness. Like a human that has been separated from its mother for too long, I run towards her. I may be a vampire, but I still miss her. When I reach her, we both hug.

I slowly come to.

"Katerina," he says.

I know that voice. It surprises me. Why would he of all creatures save me?

"Klaus," I say back and look up at him.

He helps me to my feet as he gets to his own feet.
