It was a beautiful day at the compound. Kat was in a dress, trying it on for the annual party-like celebration. It was a celebration for all the witches, and both the Mikaelsons and herself would be attending. However, she'd always picked out her own dress clothes, and they weren't usually hand-me-downs from centuries ago from someone else. This one was. It had been a long time since she'd worn any zip up dresses like this, so she was having trouble with that part of the dress.

Elijah went to stand in the doorway of the room she was in, and then went over to where she stood in front of a mirror.

"Allow me," he said, and zipped up the back of the dress for her, since he saw that she was struggling to do so. He then told her, "I think you look lovely."

She gave a smile at that.



Later that day, Sophie called Kat.

"Hey, what's going on?" Kat greeted.

"I need something from you, so that the witches can complete the Harvest. If you don't help me, our access to magic will fade for good, which wouldn't bode well for the wolves. In case you're not aware, my bloodline executed the curse that keeps them wolves except for once a month. Help me complete the Harvest, and I'll undo the curse for you. I need to consecrate the remains of a powerful witch so I can absorb their magic. I know of one whose body was never found. Her name is Celeste Dubois. Story goes when she died, he buried her in a secret spot at her request. All you need to do is find out where," Sophie replied.

"I'm sorry, Sophie. I can't. If he didn't tell anyone where she is, then my guess is he made a promise. Promises mean everything to him. I can't make him break his promise. I won't," she declined. "However, I do know a couple other witches. Their mother, and then an enemy witch of mine. We can use Luna's magic. If you consecrate her, then she becomes a New Orleans witch, and her magic will fuel your community of witches," Kat replied and suggested.

"Where is she? We can do that," Sophie agreed with her.

Kat gave her the location. Then hung up.



That night, some unknown witches tried coming after Davina, while she was going to be joining the festivities, but she was able to kill them in the church. Then, when she heard that Klaus was making a power grab to find her, she decided that she'd go after him herself. She'd been feeling more power, which she felt was gathering inside of her, so she thought she could take him and anyone else down. Kat had heard about what Klaus was attempting to do, as well. 



Klaus and Elijah were at the compound. Klaus had compelled an old friend of Davina's, Tim, to be on the balcony railing, while playing his piano. Leverage for Davina.

Kat came in first.

"What are you doing, Klaus?" she demanded.

"What does it look like? I'm getting my weapon back," he told her.

"She's not a weapon, Klaus! She's a teenager. She's still a kid, even if she is powerful. Let the kid go, and leave Davina alone. I'm the one that had her hide. I know how you think. I knew you'd try and use her as a weapon," she replied back to him.

Davina entered the compound, before he could respond to her.

"Hello, luv," Klaus greeted. "Silence is golden, Timothy. Thank you," Klaus added.
