Elijah was looking around in the living room when Damon and Elena came downstairs. They’d hopped in the shower and hadn’t particularly hurried up. No, they hadn’t been doing it, but with Elena not feeling very well, the last thing they wanted was a showdown with a pair of Originals.
When they came downstairs, Katherine was already settled with a blood bag and Elijah checked Damon’s extensive book collection. As soon as Elijah lay eyes on Elena he raised an eyebrow.
“Forgive me for being blunt,” he said. “but you look rather unwell”
“That’s because she saw you” Damon replied sarcastically. “Is there a special reason you’re here and not in one of Klaus’s coffins?”
“Yes” Elijah came to the point. “My lovely yet mendacious sister Rebekah has filled me in about a little war you’re having with some idiots suffering from megalomania. And according to Rebekah…”
“…You’re walking around like chickens with their heads cut off” Rebekah finished smug. “Veronica doesn’t know about the Originals, which means we have the element of surprise”
Elena walked to the couch and sank down. She lay her head on Katherine’s shoulder, who raised her eyebrows. This was awkward, but with Damon in the room, she didn’t dare push the girl away.
“Go back to bed, Elena” Damon said in a slightly begging tone.
“Hmm” Elena groaned with her eyes closed.
“I’ll take her” Katherine promised. She lifted Elena in her arms and that’s when she felt how hot Elena was. She looked up at Damon, who came rushing to them. He took his girl from Katherine and rushed outside.

The next morning
Damon and Elena were lying asleep when someone rang the bell. Elena was fast asleep, so Damon sneaked out of bed and put on his pants from the day before.
“Hurry up, Damon. You don’t want her to bleed to death, do you?”
Damon groaned as he recognized Rebekah’s voice. He walked to the door and opened it and Katherine fell in his arms. She was bleeding from her neck and Damon looked up shocked at the blonde Original, who smirked at him.
“What happened to her?” Damon wanted to know.
“I happened” Elijah answered, stepping forward. “Can we come in?”
“No!” Damon said rude.
“I was merely being polite. Of course we can come in. This house is being hosted by vampires, whom cannot possible deny the admission to an Original. So, why don’t you step aside? We’ve got things to do, plans to make, wars to prepare” Elijah said as he walked past Damon.

Katherine was sitting on a chair. A row of small stakes pinched each arm to the arm-rests and a special kind of muzzle kept her mouth shut. The muzzle also had stakes, smaller than the arm stakes, and they pierced through Katherine’s jaws. “I’m sorry for the inconvenience” Veronica said demeaning. “Actually, I’m not. You had this coming. You broke in here, you threatened me” She took a chair and put it down in front of Katherine. “Such a pity Derek chose the wrong side. If he hadn’t Damon Salvatore would be sitting next to you”
Katherine managed to produce a smirk.
“Oh, don’t be so smug” Veronica sniffed. “I’ll get to him. He’s the one that killed Kelsey. He will die a slow and painful death” she said, more to herself than to Katherine. She stood up and walked to a corner, where she picked up her cross-bow. “In the meantime” she said, while she aimed the crossbow at Katherine. “I have you to have fun with” and she fired.
