I laid in my bed, I'd come back to Bon Temps a few day ago college had finally let up and let us leave. I moved in with my sister in grandma's house, I sighed thinking about gran I couldn't believe Renee had actually killed her. How someone that had gained the trust of the whole town could betray us so quickly and so harshly. I jumped out of the bed when I heard rushed footsteps coming towards my room, my older sister nearly ripped the door off its hinges "I have to go!" she yelled out of breath "Someone, somehow kidnapped Erik and we know where he is!" I starred at my polar-opposite twin, we were like ying and yang, she was light and I was dark, she could hear people's thoughts where I could hear thoughts and control them. Her blond hair was always shimmering away where my dark brown almost black hair only shone in the moon light, everyone loved her innocent blue eyes where as everyone saw the 'evil' in my emerald green ones. I had been the sister no one really liked, though gran always told me it was because they were jealous of me, I usually just laughed.
"Ok, telling me this why Sook?" she never usually told me when she had to go do her vampire shit why was she telling me now?
"I need your help! I need you to come with me… our abilities combined will save Erik's life!" I could tell she was getting impatient with me; we always had an uncanny way of pissing each other off within seconds of being in the same room. I smirked and brushed a few strands of dark hair out of my eyes
"Erik? The same Erik you nightly rant about how much you hate and how you're sick of him using you?" I knew the subject rubbed her the wrong way. I fondled my tongue ring with my teeth and raised an eye brow
"Just get in the fucking car!" she scowled storming off to no doubt complain to Bill about me. I sighed and walked slowly down the hall and even more slowly down the stairs "Bill!" she yelled glaring at me, almost instantly Bill had grabbed me and I was in the car before I could protest.
"I hate you"
"That's fine" Bill replied before speeding off.
We pulled up to what looked like a church, "Don't tell me the Fellowship of the Sun is at it again?"
"Yes, they thought by taking Erik they would get Godric this time and truly hurt area 5" Bill explained. I rolled my eyes
"And I'm guessing you brought me to make it easier for you to get in?" they nodded, I rolled my eyes again and exited the car, I hiked my plaid skirt up a little higher pulled my shirt down a little lower and stalked over towards the doors, I guess you could call what I do to them the same as when a vampire glamours someone, only its faster and I don't have to work as hard. I could feel Sookie following behind me, we had used this tactic on the Fellowship once before and they would fall for it again, Sookie and I would distract the red necks in the front while Bill will sneak in behind them and take care of the one blocking the inside. When I reached the door a man grabbed my arm and stopped me "Church is closed little lady" he said pulling me away from the door, I smiled and giggled
"Silly me for thinking church was always open. My sister and I were just looking for a phone to use, you see our car broke down a few miles from here and we really need to get home to our sick momma" I thickened the southern accent as much as I could, trying to sound as dumb as I could. Sookie and I smiled innocently at the 4 men that surrounded us. They looked at each other 'time for my magic' I thought weaving artificial memories into their minds of how they had known the both of us for years and that they could trust us. "Jim, could you take these lovely ladies into the church to use the phone?" a man waved us in the door, he held the door open for us I looked over at Sookie
"Hook line and sinker," I whispered laughing. Once the door shut Bill cracked 'Jim' over the head with a giant cross, I laughed as Sookie looked on in horror "I'll go into the sanctuary first… warm them up… make sure they actually have Erik" Bill and Sookie nodded, I could see the worry written on Sookie's face I shook my head and walked away. Thirty plus head turned in my direction as I walked in the door, I smiled sweetly "Hi y'all, I was pointed in the direction of a phone but I seemed to have become lost" I giggled as I continued walking up towards the front of the church, I was standing in front of the Reverend Steve Newlin smiling like a bimbo.
"Well child your far from a phone in here" he laughed and smiled at me, it made me sick. I looked up at the slab of stone behind him
"Oh cool a vampire" that thick hooker accent was back, I rushed up to the slab looking as excited as I could, silver chains laid across exposed flesh, the blond vampire struggled to look at me he winced and moaned in agony as the chains moved. I winked at him before Newlin pulled me away
"That's none of your concern little lady" he said quickly ushering me away form Erik
"Gosh I wish my sister and her husband could see this, they aint never seen a vampire!" I laughed. "Hey! Jim! Brittany! Come in here they got one of those vamps in here! They're gonna burn him!" I yelled towards the door, Bill and Sookie burst in backed up by Isabel and a few others from Godric's nest. Newlin grabbed me and pulled a knife out of his pocket holding it up to my throat
"One more step vampire and the girl dies!" Newlin yelled. Sookie and Bill stopped; Newlin dragged me backwards towards Erik pulling me up the few steps nicking my throat good with the knife.
"You're an asshole," I snarled
"Oh I knew that was all an act, you mind reading little bitch"
"I should have ripped those chains off the Viking when I had the chance!" I spat in his face
"But you didn't cause you thought your little friends over there would be good back-up? Bet you're kicking your self now bitch," he laughed, digging the knife in deeper I winced slightly as more blood trickled down my neck. He opened his mouth to spew more bullshit when a paintball landed between his eyes making him drop the knife and let me go. I put my hand up to my neck grabbing the knife off the floor and rushed over to Erik who just starred at me "What do I do?" I whispered knowing full well he heard me
"Pull… them… off" he struggled.
"Won't it hurt?" I didn't know why but I was freaking out, he snarled "Ok, Ok" I pulled the silver off his wrist slowly but when he threw his head back and growled I knew it would have to be the worst Band-Aid of his un-life. I ripped the rest of it off quickly ignoring the fact that some of his flesh came off with it. He got up with inhuman speed, and I know he didn't mean it but in the process pushed me over; I landed on the stairs in an awkward position a sharp pain radiating form my stomach. I watched the rest of the events play out in slow motion as I tried to ignore the blood seeping into my shirt and pants, I looked down to my stomach after fighting with myself not to. The knife was now sticking straight out of my stomach surrounded by a thick red stain. I was half surprised that with all the vampires in the room no one had smelt my blood, but there was more important matters to pay attention to. I looked up my vision blurring slowly, everything sounded so distance, and I could make out one face in the see of strangers. "Godric" I whispered, before coughing up a bunch of blood.
