Elektra Natchios was Daredevil's love interest. Her father was killed by Bullseye and she blamed Daredevil for his death. Elektra was trained by Stick as a child so she practiced and held sai that she would use to kill Daredevil. When she finally confronted the vigilante, she impaled him by his shoulder but before she would kill him, she wanted to know who she would be actually killing. She unmasked him and was surprised to find Matt Murdock. Elektra then learned that it was Bullseye who murdered her father. Ironically, however, when she confronted him, Bullseye (Who had been attracted to Elektra due to her beauty, skills and hatred for him) beat her in battle: slitting half of her throat and impaling her in the gut. When Bullseye left, she was able to say goodbye to Daredevil before dying in his arms.
