It was a dark night, as Katherine stood on the clock tower, which was in the town square. She couldn't outrun time, so she was going to jump off the clock tower to end her own suffering. She was dying of old age, because time was catching up with her. Besides, she was tired of running from her enemies. She had ran from Klaus for 500 years. She was done running. All she wanted was for this to all end.

She closed her eyes and then jumped.

A moment later, she felt wind, as she plummeted towards the sidewalk.

A few minutes later, she felt as if someone had caught her.

She opened her eyes to see that Damon had caught her.

He set her on her feet.

They looked at each other.

"What the hell are you thinking?" he asked her.

"I want this to end. I thought if I died, it would all goo away. I'm dying of old age, and it can't be stopped. Time is catching up with me. I'm running out of time," she explained.

"We'll figure this out, but you should've told me. Let's make the most of it. Shall we?"

She gave a smile. Maybe this wasn't bad. It was like a new version of Romeo and Juliet. Their story.
