Katerina Petrova. Or, as you may know her, Katherine Pierce. [ The most uncomfortable pause. ] We have -- a history, her and I. [ That's putting it a little mildly of course but best not to slap her with the cray all at once. ] So I just thought you should be aware of that, that you should hear it from me first, considering our-- [ Their what? ]
[That is a name she hadn't even considered in a while and the thought of Elijah having history with her... it's probably something she read in his journals when she was snooping.]
She tried to have me killed. [Just sayin'.] It's why I was with Klaus in the first place. Trading information for protection. [There's a light frown, because she's not sure what Katherine's presence means.]
Do you know when she's from? [Because, Hayley is a hybrid now... she can handle herself if she needs to.]
I did not grill her like maybe I should have. But, judging from the fact that she is still a vampire with no apparent memory of what awaits her, at least a year behind us now.
However, she seemed -- surprised to see me, beyond even what you might expect given the circumstances. So I would hazard to guess she comes from a time even earlier than that.
I am. [ Elijah's thumb brushes over top of hers, equally reassuring. ] Or, I will be. [ It had been regrettable to miss her passing in the end but he had made peace with that loss of her some time ago already. Of course, having her here again in the flesh had stirred back up some of his old weakness for her... But his concern remains with his family. Which includes Hayley now. If Katerina means her any harm, then he will act accordingly -- weakness or not. ] Thank you.
[Hayley nods, knowing that really being 'all right' is something that exists on a sliding scale in this place.]
You probably need to go find Klaus. [Not that she's trying to get rid of him, but she also can understand that he can't just take all of his time, no matter how easy that could be for her.]
[ He is reluctant to leave her but he has yet to make contact with his brother and that is something that needs to be done sooner rather than later in his eyes. So he nods. ]
[Hayley smiles up at him, a soft smirk on her features.]
I'll be right [insert the location of her tent thing that is not too far from Rebekah's. It has all the things that Klaus has been stealing for her...] there.

Are you alright? [Hayley's hand moves to take one of his, holding onto it and giving him a reassuring squeeze.]
