I'm Katerina Petrova. I was born in Bulgaria, in the 1400s.
I was too young to have a child.
"Push, Katerina. Push!"
I was unmarried.
"Just a bit more."
I could only have intercourse after marriage.
"Katerina!"
Of course I just had the bad luck to get pregnant.
"Look. Katerina, it's a girl."
I survived giving birth.
"No! Papa! Please!"
I barely held my little girl before she was ripped from my life.
"You know it's for the best. Katerina!"
Did I mention that we were witches in our family?
I only knew a few spells, but after my pregnancy scandal, I wasn't allowed to learn anymore magic.
"You're a disgrace to this family!"
My family, they disowned me.
"Leave now."
I was banished to England where I met... "This is the Lady Katerina. She's from Bulgaria."
Niklaus.
"It is a pleasure to meet you Katerina."
Elijah.
"My brother has plans for you. I wish I could tell you more, but if I were you.. I'd run."
So I found out what Klaus really was, and what he wanted from me.
"You're a Petrova Doppelganger. You're one of the key ingredients to break the curse."
Then I ran like hell, ignoring him roaring after me. "Katerina!!!!!"
I didn't stop until I arrived at a forest cabin.
"Help me! Please, I need help!"
That's where I met Rose. "We need to hand her over to Klaus, or else he'll kill all of us."
So I planned my escape plan.
"You're hurt. Here, drink my blood."
And I did what I do best, I survived. "You've just signed our death sentence.."
I had myself turn into a vampire. "Better you die than I."
Oh, my apologies. I haven't even gotten to the best part. "Momma? Momma!"
He killed them. Klaus killed all of them. "Momma!!!"
And that's were my story begins...
