Katherine flopped down with a heavy sigh onto the bed, her eye twitching in annoyance. Elijah had a house lined up for them to move into, but it was still in the final stages of paperwork so they had had to go from Klaus' compound to a hotel until the paperwork could be finished tomorrow. It had been difficult to get there.
Because of Klaus' specific wording that she had to stay hidden, any time someone got too close she had the urge to hide. It made her twitchy and practically climbing out of her own skin. If it hadn't been from Elijah's firm hold on her she probably would have bolted. She was safe inside the hotel room at least. For now, until house keeping came by or something.
She let out an angry breath, falling back onto the bed. She kicked her shoes off, wincing as the hit against the wall with a loud thump. Rolling over onto her stomach, she placed her chin in her hands, raising her brow at Elijah.
"What are we going to do about Klaus' compulsion? Because every time I step outside I feel like I'm going to explode from paranoia. Make sure to stay hidden? Really?"

With a change of plan that had them relocated to a small hotel not far from the compound. The plan to move into a home that Elijah had purchased so that no other vampire could enter and had it placed under Katerina's name. He had to take precautions as he knew that her life was still at risk, even more so now that she no longer had Niklaus's protection. If Elijah could call it protection, endless torture and agony is what his brother subjected her to.
Entering the hotel room that contained two single beds, a small colour TV, a large basic bathroom. It would only be for a few days until all the paperwork was completed. As soon as the paperwork was ready they would be relocating to their new premises as soon as possible. Placing a large brown bag of selected food products that Katerina had asked for and several bottles of refreshment.
"Yes, my brother has quite a way with words. But even there is loop holes in my brother's compulsion Katerina" he grinned innocently.
Turning his attention back to the brown bag full of snacks he placed them at the bottom of the bed "I hope it is as you requested"

"Which you know...you'd think that as old as he is he'd learn about loop holes." Katherine sighed, dragging herself off the bed to examine the things that ELijah had brought. She shrugged slightly.
"Although I guess Niklaus is too impatient and impulsive to actually stop and think about what he is saying. I mean," she paused to pick up a bag of skittle and tossed some into her mouth after she opened the bag. "I compelled an entire town not to remember me unless I was there. Do you know how hard that was to get it right? Of course...the only loop hole was Elena...but that couldn't be helped."
She paused, frowning and turned towards Elijah slowly. She tossed some more skittles into her mouth, raising a brow.
"Care to enlighten me what this loop hole is? Because I am not changing my hair, getting contacts, etc to hide."

"There is no ends to you genius is there Katerina" he smirked cheekily.
Picking up a bottle of water from the unit, he poured some into a glass filled with ice and turned to Katerina "I believe it is seven glasses of water per day" he grinned and handed her the glass.
Turning away from her and picked up the bottle and placed it in the small fridge "For over a thousand years my brother has inflicted pain and torture on those who have stood against him. Their blood painted the streets, and for those who are unlucky enough have a dagger placed in their hearts" he ended with a slight shiver recalling all those times that Niklaus daggered him and their siblings when they stood against him.
"My brother compelled you to stay hidden, true he has a way of words but he neglects to word things correctly. He neglected to say from whom" he paused letting Katerina catch up.

Katherine scrunched her nose at him and through a skittle at him. Sitting down on the edge of the bed again, she continued to munch on skittles. She stuck her tongue out at him, and took the glass of water from him.
"Good god, are you going to be my own personal health adviser?" She smiled at him, and brought the glass to her lips. She nodded her head slightly as she talked, and swallowed hard when he started talking about the daggers. She hadn't daggered him herself, but she had helped to keep him that way once. Something else her conscience decided to kick back onto her.
She raised her head slowly to look at him, raising a brow as a grin spread across her face. "And...you know how to...fix this?"

"One must know how to care for one's self Katerina" he replied with a Cheshire grin across his face.
Elijah perched himself on the edge of the bed as he tucked his ankle underneath one another "Niklaus underestimates the privileges of being a vampire and what one can do when one puts one's mind too it" he grinned.
Scooting across the bed so that he was only a few inches away from her "An original vampire can compel any vampire, although we cannot compel each other. Although, my brother seems to forget that an original compulsion can over-ride another compulsion" he smirked.

Katherine turned to face him, tucking her leg under her. She narrowed her eyes, and leaned forward to poke her finger against his chest.
"Then pray tell why we had to have that little chat with Niklaus if you could just....make it go away?"
She wanted to strangle Elijah at the moment. The vampire could have saved them all the trouble and just fixed it before Klaus even realized they were there.

Elijah tilted his head to the side "Niklaus can be ruthless when he so desires Katerina. If I had merely compelled you to ignore everything that he compelled you to do then what affect would it have?" he arched his brow "He would have sought us out and you would have met death and I a dagger and a coffin. I merely took the option to confront my brother and for him to grant your freedom without negative ending" he smirked.
Elijah knew all along that he could compel Katerina to leave the compound, but he took a different approach rather than risking both of their lives. He would have voiced his plan but he could not risk Niklaus compelling her to expose any plans that he had.

Katherine felt her jaw twitch slightly, and she reached out to smack the back of Elijah's head. It was more playful than an actual slap, but her point was still across.
"Okay, well then...fix me so I don't have to have you at my side at all times when I go outside." She paused, then grinned slowly. "Not that I mind you being around me at all times...just sadly you have things to do."
She smirked, and brushed her hair out of her face as she squirmed slightly in place.

Running his hand over the spot that Katherine had hit him, he shook his head and grinned before taking on a serious demeanour and let his compulsion take hold of her "Katerina. I want you to sit very still do you understand?" he whispered.
Seeing her nod was enough as he moved slightly on the bed "Now, I want you to repeat precisely the words that Niklaus told you" he requested

Katherine relaxed as his compulsion took affect. Every inch of her frozen almost except the steady rise and fall of her chest as she breathed. Her brow furrowed slightly in concentration as Elijah asked her to repeat what Klaus had said to her.
"You are free to leave but when I summon you, you will return here with no questions asked. You will be inclined to help me in any way I desire without objection. You will also remain hidden and no one will know of your existence," she repeated, relaxing once more as she quit concentrating.

Elijah nodded "Very good Katerina" he spoke softly "Now, I want you to erase those commands that my brother Niklaus told you. You are free to come and go as you please. You do not go to my brother if he summon's you. Ignore the requests. You do not hide, nor do you have to hide. You are free" he ended with a slight smirk.
Once he was sure that his compulsion had over-ridden his brother's commands, he broke his gaze with Katerina and slightly shook his head.
"But I implore you Katerina, we do not speak of this. Am I clear?"
The last he needed for his brother to find out that he had gone behind his back, he could already feel a dagger hanging above his chest, ready for that final drop.

"I won't speak of it to anyone," she whispered. She blinked several times, pressing a hand against her forehead. Her grin widened slightly, and she moved to slip her arms around his neck. She placed a kiss against his cheek.
"Have I told you recently that you are the best original ever?"
She stood up, bouncing slightly around the room. Clearing her throat, she turned to face him. She rocked back and forth on her heals.

"That may have been mentioned once or twice over the years" he teased with a slight grin.
His eyes followed her and watched her bounce on the spot for several paces and around the hotel room. He had not seen this side of Katerina before, so carefree and out of harms way for the first time since she had returned from the dead.
"Whatever you wish Katerina. Although I do agree with my brother that you must be careful, the witches can not know that you are free to leave. I stress that importance Katerina" he pinched his fingers together to stress the importance of his point.

Katherine raised a brow at him. She wasn't stupid. She had every intention of hiding that she was back, as best as she could. Besides the witches, there were vampires all over the globe that had it out for her and as a human, well she was like a grand feast.
"I solemnly swear I will attempt to stay hidden as best as I can. I'm only human after all." She smirked slightly.
After a moment she sat back down on the bed, resting her chin on his shoulder. Staring up at him briefly, she cleared her throat, rubbing a finger against her nose.
"Although...I guess you should know that a vampire from Mystic Falls knows that I'm back."
