The Hidden Petrova-Mikaelson

Chapter: 8

Katherine's House

Katherine had of course fed the boy and he gobbled it up as if he hadn't eaten in years and maybe that was true Katherine didn't know. She didn't know if she should trust this Henrik, but he was a child and so was Isabella and she's currently in the same position as this boy and if she were here she would want to have helped him. So Katherine was mainly doing it for her.

She showed him the shower and explained to him a little how he was a year beyond the time he was born. He had questions and Katherine told him they were all for another time. Katherine had to give him one of her shirts and sweatpants that fit him. He was thankful thankful he kept thanking her and Katherine didn't nearly need the thanks.

Katherine hadn't slept that night at all when she was sure Henrik was asleep she crept into his room and watched him all night until it was 6 am. When she went downstairs to start breakfast she also drank a blood bag not wanting to scare the boy before she figured out who he was.

It was 7:30 when she heard Henrik come down he was beary-eyed and seemed a bit confused until he saw her, "You ok?" Katherine asked startling the boy even though she was just a few feet away from him, "I'm well." Katherine nodded and she went back to the pancakes it was silent the only noise was the stove and the chair being pushed away from the table, K"I don't remember them. My family. I thought I the day last but I don't really." Katherine looked at him she felt the same sometimes but not entirely she felt that way before for a long time. Still, when Elena gave her the diary of her family and then everything came back the good and the bad, she didn't care though because she remembered them, she remembered their laughs, how Isabella reminded her of her younger sister, her stubonerness like Katherine's Mama.

"You'll remember one day hopefully. But you won't see them again, it's been years since you last lived."

"I don't think I'll miss them. I can't even remember their hair color everything is just dark in my head."

"Don't speak too soon maybe things will change."

It was silent again and Katherine went back to cooking until she finished and served both her and Henrik. It stayed that way for a while just silence, a comfortable silence.

"Breakfast is served," Katherine said placing Henrik's plate right in front of him. He thanked her picking up the fork and digging into the breakfast.

Mikaelson Mansion in Mystic Falls

Being back in Mystic Falls brought back many memories, especially in the Mystic Falls Mansion. Rebekah coughed blindly feeling the wall until she found the light switch," Couldn't bother to call a cleaning service?" Rebekah turned to Klaus eyebrow arched," Well dear sister I have just come back from the dead so please excuse me for not calling a cleaning lady. Whlie celebrating this new need of being back alive free of that Hollow bitch." Klaus left everyone at the front door going to what everyone assumed to look for a strong bottle of bourbon.

"I'll call the cleaning service soon. It is rather filthy in here." Elijah too sped away this time upstairs," What the bloody hell is wrong with those two?" Rebekah turn to the remaining group," They did just come back from the dead when they thought they would never live again." Davina said walking past Rebekah and going upstairs Kol following right behind her. Rebekah hiffed irritated but also so tired, "What's wrong?" Marcel asked wrapping his arms around Rebekah," Ever since they woke up. Everything feels off. Klaus spent 3 days having Freya run tests on him to make sure the Hollow is gone but still he acts like she's still there. Elijah is like a ghost and Hayley seems so broken now. How can they face Hope being the way they are now?"

"Before they died they went through a lot, Hope went through a lot. Everything that happened changed her and it changed them. It's gonna take a while before everything goes back to normal." Rebekah leaned back into Marcel needing him to support her because it felt like her world had broken into pieces since Hayley, Elijah, and Klaus.

"I should be happy that they're back but I just- Who brought them back? Why are they back?"

"Does it matter? They're back, Hope gets to have a second chance with her parents. She gets to pour her heart out and tell them everything she has wanted to since they died. We all get to start over, that's all that should matter." Rebekah shook her head all those things sounded nice but nothing about the Mikaelsons' lives was ever easy they always had to fight to gain one ounce of peace," Nothing is ever that easy for us Mikaelsons." Marcel snorted kissing her head," You're telling me?" Rebekah elbowed him in the ribs," Ow no need to get violent on our first day here. There's plenty of time for that." Marcel scoffed and followed Rebekah upstairs picking up as many bags as possible before following her.

Katherine & Henrik

Katherine had been talking with Henrik for the past 4 hours trying to find where he had crawled his way out of his own grave and she was getting sick of following him and being in the heat and the forest and she was giving him 2 minutes before calling his bluff and dragging his ass to Mystic's Falls police station.

"I found it. It's up ahead." Katherine looked up and saw Henrik running over in the direction of his grave and followed him, Katherine's mouth fell open pulling Hnerik slightly back it looked like a crater had fallen in the middle of the forest," This was you?" Katherine asked staring at Henrik the kid looked confused before nodding and looking at her," I don't remember doing all this mess though. But it did take me a long time to crawl out of the hole." Katherine nodded pulling Henrik even more back," Okay let's get out of here." Katherine steered Henrik toward a shortcut to where Katherine parked the car

Now that Katherine knew he wasn't lying and he quite literally came back from the dead just as she had there was no reason to linger and draw attention to themselves considering that Matt Donavon is the sheriff of Mystic Falls. And last Katherin heard he took every chance to keep Mystic Falls clear of supernatural not considering the school full of impressionable teens.

"So what's gonna happen now? To me?" Katherine turned back towards Henrik before quickly turning back," I have a plan." Katherine didn't have a plan she had planned that if he was lying to snap his neck but he wasn't lying he was telling the truth.

And Katherine was just as lost as Henrik had ever since he showed up at her door he wore this lost expression on his face and every time Katherine looked at him he reminded her too much of Bella, who must be feeling the same way as Henrik.

Author's Note: I quickly found an end for this chapter that must have been sitting in my drafts for months if not years. But what motivated me was someone placing the story in forgotten or discontinued list cuz it not it's constantly on my mind just hit so many road blocks when writing it's insane.
