*Crescent City*
Like a small boat
On the ocean
Sending big waves
Into motion
Like how a single word
Can make a heart open
I might only have one match
But I can make an explosion
And all those things I didn't say
Wrecking balls inside my brain
I will scream them loud tonight
Can you hear my voice this time?
After Klaus found out what Celeste had done, he raced over to the plantation house to save Katerina. He couldn't let her or their unborn child die.
When he blurred inside, coming from the door, he saw Katerina laying on the floor and blurred to her side. He then gently pulled her into his arms and got to his feet.
Once outside, he gently layed her down and knelt at her side. He looked down at her and used his hybrid senses to make sure she was still alive.
He sighed in relief, when he saw that she and his child were alive.
He rested a hand on the side of her face.
"Katerina, can you hear me, luv? I need you to wake up for me, luv."
He gently patted the side of her face.
She slowly came to and coughed from what she'd been through. Then, when she was finished, she looked at him and gave a smile, in which he returned.
"You saved me, Klaus. Thank you."
"You're welcome, Katerina."
He helped her to her feet, as he got to his.

This is my fight song
Take back my life song
Prove I'm alright song
My power's turned on
Starting right now I'll be strong
I'll play my fight song
And I don't really care if nobody else believes
'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me
Losing friends and I'm chasing sleep
Everybody's worried about me
In too deep, say
I'm in too deep
It was a dismal night, as Katherine came out of the woods. Klaus had been searching for her, having been called by Rebekah that Katerina was MIA after Rebekah had gotten an arrow in her back.
Klaus came over to her.
"Katerina, what happened, luv?"
"I don't know. I saw Rebekah get an arrow in the back and ran. Then I tripped over something and then woke up I don't know how long after. I found my way out of the woods after that. Can we just go home? I want to sleep for a while," she said.
She began to feel out of it and he caught her, when she began to lose her balance.
"I've got you, luv." He picked her up in his arms. "I've got you."
She rested her head on his shoulder and wrapped her arms around his neck weakly. Then she fell asleep, feeling tired and knew he would keep her safe.
*River In Reverse*
And it's been two years
I miss my home
But there's a fire burning in my bones
I still believe
Yeah I still believe
And all those things I didn't say
Wrecking balls inside my brain
I will scream them loud tonight
Can you hear my voice this time?
This is my fight song
Take back my life song
Prove I'm alright song
My power's turned on
Starting right now I'll be strong
I'll play my fight song
And I don't really care if nobody else believes
'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me
A lot of fight left in me
It was a beautiful day, as Marcel watched his guys put chains on Klaus' wrists. Marcel was determined to put Klaus in the Garden. Klaus knew he wouldn't win with just his vampire side, so he let his wolf strength out. He looked at Marcel with rage, as his eyes glowed yellow. Then he freed himself and began coming after the vampires left and right, biting some and ripping hearts out of others.

It was a nebulous night, as Katherine stood in the mausoleum, a hand over her stomach. Klaus stood a foot or so away, as Sophie spoke.
"This girl is carrying your child."
"Impossible. You're lying. Vampires can't procreate," he accused.
"But werewolves can. Magic made you a vampire, but you were born a werewolf."
He turned to Katerina.
"You've been with someone else! Admit it!"
"You're the only one I've been with. Listen, Klaus," she replied.
With hybrid hearing, he heard a heartbeat within her stomach. When he did, his heart melted, wanting it.

Now I've still got a lot of fight left in me
Though Rebekah and Elijah had left Klaus after present transgressions of his, Freya and Katherine hadn't.
Katherine stood next to him on a balcony.
"I'm sorry. They shouldn't have left. Family should stick together. I promise you, I will never leave you. For better and for worse. In sickness and in health."
She put her hand in his.
They smiled at each other. Then she left the balcony to go to bed.
Later that night, Freya met him on the balcony.
"I was alone for 1,000 years. I'd hate for you to end up that way, brother."
He was silent, as she spoke, and watched her walk away.
