Hey so this is a first for me. I have never written for True Blood yet and I must confess that I was not sure about publishing. So this is a first draft. I have found true love with Godric these last few days and I must admit that it deserves much more interest so this is a beginning story. I especially need to have your opinions on this story because unlike usual I have not yet written so the comments would greatly appreciate.

And yes, I'm not English so really save my mistakes of languages, grammar etc.

I like constructive criticism and that have a purpose for history but if you just intend to destroy my work and therefore, my imagination itself, please, refrain! So here, I really expect, then really look forward to your thoughts.

In addition, I have no rights to the stories of Allan Ball and Charleine Harris, of course. Only hope to dream.


The police station was crowded this evening. The hubbub of the murmurs coupled with the artificial lights as well as the noise of paper stirrings was enough to send the Detective Johnson into a peak of stress. And that was just the beginning of the evening.

However, this was not really different from other nights for him. After all, it was Dallas. And they were the biggest resort so that was to be expected. Especially since he did not even take into account the increase in crimes following "The Great Revelation". Not only did they have to deal with human crimes but those concerning vampires now. Yeah, Vampires.

Johnson did not even remember how the world ended up turning upside down but he was sure to say things were definitely more hectic since that famous night. Although for him, things had always been pretty hectic and those mainly through his current problem.

This brought him back to his tormented thoughts.

He vaguely overcame his teammates with a tense expression as he left his thoughts free in his mind and tried not to succumb to his inner turmoil.

In any other day, he would just pinch the bridge of his nose with a strong suspicion of irritation but now was certainly not a simple habitual arrest. This time she had gone out of the charters.

He did not even remember how he had become this cop so worried about one of his suspects but he had made the unfortunate mistake of becoming attached.
Detective Allan Johnson was a man known for his calm and uncompromising professionalism only there was only one exception that could put him on the edge.

And this time, this exception had damn. A great time.

He turned his pen between his fingers, throwing back and forth glances between the familiar folder on his desk and the front door of the station. Every now and then, he expected to see the dreaded supporters of his discomfort. He knew that this time, he probably could not solve the problem simply by walking his relationships and his status. This time the Vampires were involved. Not that he had anything against this new genre. In fact, he had no worries with this new breed.

He had always been an open-minded man, and during his few years of careers he had been led to see enough evil in the human race to know that no one could judge a race for their eating habits.

However, he could not help but feel a slight apprehension at the thought of meeting a flesh-and-blood vampire. And not just any vampire but the Dallas Sheriff himself.

Honestly when his boss, Matt, had told him to see the problem with the sheriff, he had thought it had to be another of his bad jokes. Only the unwavering look of the man had been enough to prove to him that he was fucking serious.

And that was why he was even more nervous. For all that he knew, the outcome of this evening translated into billions and at the moment, he was not certain to love any of the one he had thought of.

True, she was a morbid and a painful ass in his ass from a young age but that was why he had learned to take so much care about her. Now she was in a situation that he was not even sure he could handle.

He was definitely too old for this kind of bullshit and those, even though he was only in his thirties.

"Man, stop frowning, you'll ruin your beauty sleep." Suddenly the familiar and slightly sarcastic yet still soothing voice of his longtime teammate, Jerry, before a steaming cup of coffee replaced the file manila. '' So she really messed up this time, huh ? ''

Johnson raised his eyes from the cup with envy before deepening his blue eyes on his teammate currently crossing the file with impassivity since he had traveled more than he could count.

Johnson let out a grunting growl in frustration before straightening up in his old cheap office chair before cracking his neck in exhaustion. '' And that doesn't even cover it. This time we don't talk about a simple sale of marijuana, a sale of stolen parts or a car theft or... ''

"So it's true what I heard? " The abrupt interrupted a hoarse and jubilant voice already irritating Johnson before he even turned to meet the biggest motherfucker of the station.

Officer Mercer.

The latter strolled slowly with arrogance and pretension between the offices with a luminous smile covering his features to accompany his ecstatic words. '' This time she will finally receive what she deserves. ''

His little introduction had attracted the attention of some colleagues hanging around and Johnson already knew that this was probably going to be the big topic of conversation for the rest of the night. Maybe even the next few days.

Not only this was about the Vampires but also their most regular client. If we can say that. He was sure it would attract a lot of attention.

"She's a teenager, Mercer." Jerry replied coolly as he straightened up in a defensive position as he closed the file before throwing it carelessly onto Johnson's desk. "Plus, it's not your cases to be treated. Go back to your records before I get you to traffic. ''

Johnson could already feel the accumulation of fatigue on his body and a slight headache was already on the horizon as he pulled his chair back before standing up calling the attention of his two colleagues currently in a silent testosterone clash.

He was really done with all this crap.

"Cut the crap ! You two ! "He calmly but still hard enough to show who still had the highest rank here as he gave firm looks on each of them." The sheriff will soon be here and I will not, I don't need both of you to aggravate the situation. Did I make myself understood ? "

Jerry and Mercer continued their little contest of glaring glances before Jerry abandoned the first by straightening up to his teammate. '' Crystal. ''

However, Mercer was definitely more stubborn as he straightened up in turn but not without a condescending snort. "The breather stole a vampire. And the Sheriff more. What do you think is going to happen ? This time, nothing you can do will protect her, Johnson. ''

A heavy, tense silence fell across the station as the truth of Mercer's raw words settled in everyone's mind. As if that was not enough for Johnson. Honestly, he preferred to find himself in his good old sofa worn in his tracksuits with a good bowl of chicken wings full of sauce accompanied by a beer. But no, he had to save her ass again and manage Mercer.

"No one is above the law. I know my job. '' Absorbed Johnson dryly this time clearly tired with all this shit. '' Now get out of my sight, Mercer before I force you to. ''

The latter raised his chin with obviously offended scorn but turned his heels all the same with a dry grin.

Johnson and Jerry looked silently at his retreat before they noticed the looks on them. Some were pities, others with disinterest.

But he was sure to say that the current situation had already had its small impact on the whole station.

'' What are you doing ? Flowing! There's nothing to do! "Jerry ordered dryly, waving his hands away from the duo before turning slowly to Johnson in solicitude." You know he's not wrong. Even if we manage to avoid her detention for minors, who knows what will happen to her outside these walls. I doubt the leeches are merciful. "

Johnson released a heavy sigh as he sank back into his chair with a squeaking of the material under his weight before walking on his desk with his hands folded under his chin.

A slight sweat had accumulated along his back and under his cheap shirt causing the latter to stuck against his skin. His meager Detective's salary just paid his bills and rent and he did not have the time or the means to put money into high-fashion shirts.

Not to mention that this was not particularly useful since the weather in Dallas was still quite sticky and heavy. It was always more pleasant and less humid than Louisiana, but still. He passed his large calloused hand along his neck trying to lighten the heaviness in his shoulders before briefly raising his blue eyes to meet Jerry's bluish and scrutinizing gaze.

He blew a puff at his hands before straightening up slightly with a frown. "These... leeches as you say, could surprise us. Plus, I doubt they will dare to jeopardize their great integration for a simple steal. We have all the things in our possession. "

'' You will not give her up, don't you ? '' Easily guessed Jerry with a hint of pride to his long-time colleague and friend.

If there was anyone who knew Johnson's attachment to the little breather, it was he. He had accompanied him all those years and that was how he saw the relationship growing up between them.

"Not as long as I can help it."

And just like that, the whole station dropped in a deep silence just as the doors were opened.

Johnson rose almost instantly in a straight, stiff posture like a tall brown Hispanic-looking woman with pale skin and clad in black crossing the glass doors.

However, despite the fact that the woman seemed to display a particularly attractive physique and those not only from Johnson's point of view if he relied on the reactions of the men around him, it was the man who accompanied her who attracted his warning.

Well, man, or rather the teenager. At least, its physical aspects. He wore a simple black pullover showing an athletic build despite his standard size.

But Johnson was smart enough not to trust his juvenile eyes. He had met enough suspects with a heavy past to know that this simple boy was much more than that. He was perhaps even much older than he imagined. And by the appearance of authority he was releasing, he knew he was right.

He watched the two vampires stop in front of the reception desk just to come face to face with a Jennifer completely petrified by fear.

Johnson vaguely heard the young man ask for him in a sophisticated voice with a strong hint of accent before he decided to spare the young receptionist. He stood up from his chair with suppleness and smoothed his tie against the fabric of his shirt before rushing to the trio.

He was not surprised to hear Jennifer's disjointed, trembling babbling as he approached and he soon put a hand on her shoulder to try to appease her. He ignored the blonde's light yelping as well as her jerk under his palm and turned to the two vampires.

"You must be the Sheriff." Recognized Johnson by betting on his professional face to try to mask his concern and intimidation before giving a look at the blonde still in shock as he received a brief nod of the most."I'm Detective Allan Johnson. I was asked to treat this little... inconvenience. ''

"Little inconvenience ?" Repeated the Hispanic brunette in a dry and impressive tone looking definitely more aggressive unlike her companion who just seemed tired and squeezed into finishing."A human broke into our nest during the day.''

Johnson swallowed by briefly nodding his head in understanding before deciding to try his chances with the man. '' I'm sorry, I mispronounced myself. Can we... uh, chat in my office ? ''

The woman seemed about to make a certain objection making the task much harder to plead her case for Johnson only the young man soon raised his hand with authority before speaking with a certain wisdom standing out. '' Isabel. Enough. Detective, are we going? "

Johnson stood there for a moment, finding himself somewhat subdued in spite of himself by the strength of the young man before he quickly shook himself from his stupor.

'' Right. This way. "He said, holding out his hand with a slight scraping of his throat before driving them to his office where Jerry was still standing.

He gave a brief glance with his teammate who still seemed tense to the presence of the two vampires only Johnson merely ignored him as he settled into his office chair before highlighting the two armchairs as an invitation.

He had to admit that the sight of the two vampires dressed in expensive clothes seemed incredibly out of place only he was not the type to stop on that kind of point. All the more so because he had yet to come to the major problem.

However, Jerry's persistent presence on their trio definitely did not help. "Jerry, can you get the Sheriff's belongings ?"

"Now." Insisted Johnson as his colleague seemed about to argue before he briefly distracted himself with the file on his desk as he eventually found himself alone facing the two vampires. "Well, now I know this is an unfortunate situation... "

Godric granted only a brief attention to the discourse of the human in front of him. Although he had to admit that his attitude was interesting enough for him. He could feel, hear and see all the fear that his arrival with Isabel had provoked and yet this man seemed focused on something other than fear.

Honestly, this did not really gather his presence or interest to begin with. He had lived enough time not to be attached to things and to be honest, he did not even know half of the objects being stolen.

However, the fact that a human had managed to get into his nest in the day deserved some retrospection. All the more so with the new rise of the Fellowship of the Sun. It was just a case of robbery, but who knew if it did not include a larger project for his species.

Obviously, he could have left Isabel in charge, but one of the things that the human had stolen had attracted his interest. It was an object of no value. Well for a thief at least. He had stolen a lot of objects, all more expensive than the others, and yet he had still taken the time for this simple ridiculous collar dating from his human life.

Godric observed the station as well as the human behavior around him, he definitely did not expect to spend his night in an institution full of humans. He could see some of them throwing curious and intimidated looks on their little unusual trio and he had to force himself to keep some listening on the human in front of him.

He was a man in his full strength of age. Maybe thirty or thirty-five. So young for him. He did not need to breathe, but at each of his forced breaths he could smell sweat mixed with a fresh smell of tobacco as well as mint sweets. Or at least, the little pills that humans loved to take for fun in addition to their medications.

He remained stoic in his observation as he detected the slight layer of fat in his brown honey hair as well as some imperfections tainting his masculine face still strong. He could judge it in some sense appealing to a human. Although he relied on the chemical messages of lust released by Isabel.

However, some information in the man's speech forced Godric out of his stupor for a moment.''She? ''

"I would quite understand if you want to file a complaint against..." Johnson stopped suddenly in his diatribe as he eventually recorded that the boy had spoken.

Honestly, he did not even think he was really paying attention to what he was saying. He looked around him with a slight fascination throughout his explanation, unlike the woman who seemed to observe him as a piece of meat.

He moved in his chair in the slight discomfort now that he had the attention of the two vampires on him before deciding to focus his attention on the boy hoping to finally make a breakthrough to plead the current case.'' She's well known to our services and although I know I shouldn't say that, she is not a bad girl. She had no idea she was in a house of... well... ''

"Don't be afraid to spell my kind, Detective." The young man cut him off, forcing Johnson to straighten up slightly in his top tone.

Even though he was well aware of his senior age, this did not prevent him from being slightly incommoded to be speaking as a child. He was a man of thirty-six for the love of God, and he was certain that he had not heard such a tone since the age of ten.

''Good. Vampires." He said with a controlled nod." But obviously, if you want to file a complaint, you're absolutely right. "

'' Complain. '' Repeated the boy thoughtfully, rolling the words on his tongue as if it were totally alien and almost unimaginable before he observed Johnson carefully. ''What will happen to her if we.. Do we complain ?"

Now, that was not what he wanted. Shit ! He should not have told them about the complaint. However that was his job.

With restrained frustration, Johnson leaned back on his desk and crossed his arms across his wide chest as he made a new visual contact with the vampire. "Well, she's not grown up so she'll probably go into a Penal institution for minors. As I have already said, she's already known to our services and as you can see, her file does not lack consistency.''

To support his image, Johnson raised the file on his desk tiredly before giving his full attention to the vampire at his troubled intervention. "How old is this child ?"

This question seemed to catch the attention of the other woman as she gave a slightly surprised look at the boy by her side, slightly frowning perfectly drawn before she gave a sideways glance at Johnson.

The latter raised an eyebrow at the boy, detailing him in more detail in suspicion. "She is seventeen. Eighteen in less than six months. ''

"Can I see her ?" He asked white-eyed Johnson freezing in his tracks as he frowned more mistrustfully at the vampire.

Obviously he had nothing against the vampires and even though his current job had made him much more suspicious and suspicious of the actions of others, he liked to think that he was not the kind of person to make hasty judgment.

However, he clearly preferred when the vampire brought very little interest in his pleading.

Fortunately for him, Jerry chose this moment to make his return with the cardboard box containing the various valuables in several hermetic bags. Johnson grimaced slightly inward as he realized that most of the objects were probably worth more than all of his belongings together and immediately gave an apologetic look to the duo at the obvious lack of care.

"We were quickly warned by your safety system and for the greatest discomfort of the breather, a patrol car was circulating right in your neighborhood." Explained Jerry, giving a secret look of apprehension about Johnson in understanding.

He tested the waters. He no doubt noticed the strained position of his teammate. Years of work and odd hours spent together tended to make you definitely more aware of your colleague.

The young man in front of them seemed hardly attached importance to the objects presented as he nodded his head briefly before turning to Johnson again."My day man, Trent, has already explained to me the situation. "

''You were lucky, the brat is known for her hooked fingers.'' Tried Jerry with a slight laugh as he glanced at Johnson knowingly just to receive a warning glance from his teammate forcing him to hide his laughter in a nervous cough. '' Among other things.''

"And why is she not yet put under the bars ?" Intervened the Hispanic woman seemed more curious than annoyed as her harsh tone seemed at first to suppose.

Johnson and Jerry sneaked into each other knowingly before suddenly turning to the boy for his intervention. "I don't think that's the solution."

The woman seemed shocked by the deduction of the young boy as she bent over him slightly hesitant showing once again the power held by this simple young man and Johnson straightened up carefully watching the duo as the woman tried to get the attention of the boy.

Johnson swallowed giving a look at Jerry as a kind of felted conversation seemed to take place between the duo before the brunette turned to them in a heartbeat with a new more strained posture. '' We want to see her. Make sure it was just a... theft.''

"What a theft ?" Jerry repeated visibly as confused as Johnson about the implication they emphasized before quickly giving a glance at his teammate as it seemed that the Vamps were going to stay on their positions.

Honestly, Johnson had no idea what they insinuated and for some reason he suspected that they were not going to elaborate further on the subject. It was only his first encounter with vampires but he was almost certain that they were not as quick to reveal their secrets as this woman on TV claimed. And who could blame them. They had trampled this land for years to see centuries. He was wise enough to think that they had acquired certain secrets unimaginable for simple human beings like them.

However, seeing that he could do nothing but respond to their request, Johnson turned to his long-time teammate currently staring at the two vampires with suspicion before letting a sigh pass his lips.'' She is in the interrogation room, no ?''

"More like taking a nap, you mean." Jerry snorted with a scroll of his eyes eliciting a tired grimace from Johnson.

Obviously, that was to be expected in her case.

So with a distrustful tug in his chest, Johnson got up from his seat forcing the other two vampires to do exactly the same before he signed them to follow him. "Here. Follow me.''

Johnson was not stupid, he knew that their little group was attracting attention but at the moment he had too much concern about his mind to think about what was going on around him. He still had not managed to fully plead her case and these vampires seemed almost impossible to read. He did not know what they were going to do. If they complained then all these years of effort would have served no purpose but on the other hand, he did not really know if that was a good thing. After all, he had tried since her earliest childhood and even though she had apparent reasons to rebel. She could not continue on that path.

Plus, he was not even sure that the mercy of the vampires would really be a good thing. As Jerry had reminded him so well, they had no control over what could happen outside the walls.

Who knew they were not going to do justice to themselves.

Finally, Johnson pushed open a door with a sign announcing that only the investigators were allowed to enter and the small group soon stopped in front of a huge tempted window overlooking a darker and rough room. A simple metal table and two chairs lay in the middle of the room with a camera system currently reflected in their rooms.

On one of the chairs stood a thin silhouette almost imperceptible in her complete black clothes. Godric looked at the character through the glass in an attempt to get a glimpse of that girl's face.

However, it would seem that the least of her feminine attributes were hidden under a pile of androgynous clothing. A simple black hooded jacket, tight black jeans and a pair of black sneakers. She was currently wearing her hood with her head thrown back to observe the ceiling while her crossed ankles prevailed over most of the metal table. One of her wrists was handcuffed at the table while the other was lying nonchalantly against the back of her chair. In other words, she did not seem the least concerned about the situation in which she was.

This picture seemed obviously to make grimace the Detective Johnson and Godric gave a close look at the man.

It was obvious that he shared a certain connection with this girl or boy. Honestly, now that he saw the author of the steal through this window, he wondered how he had even been able to break into his nest. He did not take great importance in new technologies, but Isabel had insisted enough to make his home impermeable to this kind of inconvenience as the Detective had so well qualified it.

Isabel also seemed curious about the display as she finally turned to the Detective coming out of her thoughts. "How long has she been here ?"

"This afternoon." Replied the Detective quickly, forgetting his pensive look for professionalism as he turned back to the two vampires with his arms crossed over his wide chest. "She was apprehended as soon as she left your home. We learned that she might be more embarrassed in our offices and she has a preference for the interrogation room. "

"A preference ?" The woman exclaimed in mild disbelief making Johnson tense inside.

He knew how much it sounded atypical and neglectful but he could not really lock her up like a vulgar criminal. Well, he knew she was not as innocent as the teenager she should be but he preferred to see her in an interrogation room only in a cell surrounded by much more dangerous criminals.

'' You have to understand that Dan is not... ''

"Dan ?" Asked the boy again in his pleading irritating Johnson slightly as he narrowed his tight lips.

He tried to nod his head before opening the manilla backrest to give a brief glimpse of Dan's past.

"In fact, she's called Danishka. She came from Bulgaria."Added Johnson, looking curious and questioning the vampire before giving a new disillusioned look at the unconscious figure of their presence as she began to whistle in boredom." Her mother was unfortunately of our regulars. The typical story of the perfect broken house, I suppose. ''

''You seem... attached to this ... '' The woman addressed her attention as she seemed to lift her eyes in an attempt to put her thoughts into the mouth and Johnson merely shrugged his shoulders since he did not see the point of lying.

He concentrated his attention on the brunette still hidden by her hood. '' I saw her grow up. She spent more time in this position than in a school. The first time she came here was with her mother. Her husband had disappeared for some days, and she had become anxious. I still remember her bewildered look and at the same time so fascinated by all the American agitation. It was only a year since they were on the continent. ''

"I conclude that you never find her father." Conjectured Godric in solicitude thinking he got the overview only the Detective surprised him lightly as he clenched his fists with a slight groan of disdain.

"That would have been better. But unfortunately not. He came back on his own. And his problems with him. "Johnson bitterly recalled the troubled past of the girl still strong and solid before him.

Honestly, he really did not know how she managed to become that strong girl. When one thought of it, a few arrests were a meager destiny compared to what it could have ended up crossing. He shook his head trying to gather his thoughts before detaching his eyes from the annoyed form for the two vampires still fully listening.

He had to admit it, he was really surprised by their human attitudes. Certainly, they still distinguished a biker among a rank of good sisters put up until now, they were the opposite representation of all they heard on their genres until now. That was why he decided to continue to establish the facts about Dan's tumultuous childhood.

"Unfortunately that doesn't stop there. The more the months went by, the more regular calls were made. Finally, we summoned her mother but you know the system... no evidence, no faults. And even then, Dan's mother was too devoted to her husband to denounce him. She thought that as long as Dan was safe from her own ordeal then everything would be fine. However, the blows were not enough and soon, the arrests against her mother have accumulated. It turned out that her father had amassed debts with a gang known for their crimes around Dallas. He eventually reduced his wife to prostitution. ''

A heavy silence followed this last statement forcing Johnson to look away in discomfort since the two vampires seemed devoid of emotion.

"Anyway, things got too much for her mother and one day we ended up getting a call on the switchboard. A thirty-five-year-old woman lying on the floor with a ten-year-old girl bathing in a pool of blood. '' Johnson shivered coldly at the memory of the crime scene.

This was one of the worst days of his career. He was only a young officer at the time and although he quickly climbed the ranks it did not mean he had not lived his hard-on crime scene. He remembered exploded through the bathroom door just to make a sudden break at the sight in front of him. Dan had just raised her eyes wide of fear and incomprehension and it was as if time had simply stopped. The view was just disruptive for anyone. Her flower-colored dress had been stained with purple red blood, like his little chubby porcelain hands.

'' What happened to her then ? '' The voice of the woman emerging from his morbid thoughts in a faint start.

He unfastened his eyes from the void he seemed to be fixing for a moment before turning back to the two vampires, clearing his throat awkwardly.''We still had no evidence against her father. She went back with him. Well, it did not last. Having no longer any means of repaying his debt, the gang eventually repaid themselves. Fortunately, she still had a grandmother and Dan lived with her for a while. Probably her only years of stabilities. ''

Godric now listened to the life story of this simple intruder with a whole new attention. He had always been fascinated by the survivors. Perhaps because it was so that he saw things it was a time. In his time with Eric, he had been the only one to teach him the Darwinian philosophy. It was not only an ideal of thought for him and he had to acknowledge that it only added an interest in this simple human.
She did not seem the least affected by her position and yet, any human would have already been tired of waiting.

Not to mention that she had probably lived more drama than the average human. To say he was intrigued this was an understatement.

"I deduce that it didn't end there, is not it ?" Intervened Godric again receiving a surge of surprise from his sigh to his intervention.

Johnson solemnly nodded his head seeming to share more than just respect for the girl but more of love. "Her grandmother ended up being diagnosed with an orphan illness. As you can imagine, social security has never been on the side of the people. And still less immigrants from Europe. From that moment, Dan began the thefts and sales of narcotics to pay for her treatment. Unfortunately, Berta died a year later. ''

Johnson left a point of finality in his voice as he turned to the girl in the other room simply to soon let a curse leave his lips to the agreement of opening the door.

"Shit, Mercer !" He hissed between his teeth at the sight of the officer taking a step into the crack before he turned on the microphone on the other room.

Godric snarled at the new display as he took several steps forward just to come face to face before the darkest and brightest orbs he had been given to encounter throughout his long existence. Could it be that she knew he was there ? No, this kind of glass was known to leave only on one side. He raised an eyebrow at the sight of her face still partially hidden by this piece of fabric and was surprised to want to see her face in more detail. Only, it was nothing compared to the intrigue he felt as soon as she opened her mouth.

Dan did not even count the hours since she was here. The only indication it had given her was the slight ray of sunshine gradually diminishing in the night in the window behind her. These damned metal chairs are fucking uncomfortable, she thought. Maybe she could talk to Johnson when he came to see her. Although this would not really be a good idea. He was going to be pissed. But hell, where was the fun in all that ?

She knew she was risking big this time and not only because she had accumulated more arrests in the last few years but also because she had fucked crap. When she had watched this house, she had only seen two, three men traveling during the day obviously, she had not thought it could be Daywalkers. Why would a vampire want to live in a palace like that ? After all, they were not supposed to sleep underground ?

She rolled openly over her reflection wondering if they were already watching her before deciding that they did not care a lot. She began to whistle in boredom and raised her eyes with intent to amuse herself. She had been in this room more than she could count in the last few months. In fact, they had started placing her here when they found that they simply could not work when she was there.
Her sarcasm and great personality was simply too entertaining for small scrapers.

Well, not Johnson and Jerry but hey...

She gave a look at her tied grip contemplating the idea of using it to make a sort of percussion before abandoning the idea. She had never been very gifted for the sense of rhythm. Even less dancing. Hell, she was such a klutz when it was almost painful just watching her. But at least she had fairy fingers. Well, when there were no damned patrols or shit alarm systems. She was on the verge of picking up a big pact and again, that was just the beginning. In fact, when she had seen the wealth of riches in abundance, she had planned to transgress her rule once and for all.

But now she was locked up here.

The hell !

It was Doris who was probably going to give an adjustment. Maybe even Carl. Well the latter had somehow abandoned on the idea of getting her on the right path as his wife liked to call it. All that interested Carl was the deal they had spent. As long as these actions did not interfere with Max then she was free to ruin her life for what he care. Obviously, this was sort of a lie because she knew full well that man would do anything if she had not that gro no, no pride.

The opening of a door surprised her briefly in her train of thought and a wide smile narrowly appeared on her lips at the mere sight of the biggest asshole of the year. Perfect, play time !

'' Mercer. What's the value of this little visit ? "She asked, relaxing more clearly, not intimidated by the imposing appearance of the man.

"Shut your trap, Dipshit !" Grunted the man in a gruff tone as he closed the door, giving a brief glance at the glass before taking a seat on the table facing the brunette with a new smile of pure jubilation.''You'll laugh less when you're locked up between four walls without a window.''

The brunette just hummed derisively before giving a flattering smile to the man. "Hm, your threats are always so... refreshing for me."

"Tell me, I'm curious. Why were you so stupid ? "Mercer asked in an evil snicker obviously taking advantage of the situation as he crossed his wide arms uncovered by his shirt stained with coffee pulled up on his forearms." Is this a desire for death ? The big thrill ? Finally came to the conclusion that your pathetic existence of brats was not enough ? ''

Now, little was to impress or even arouse a certain reaction in Godric. He had seen, heard and lived more than most regular vampires and even though his deepest desire was to coexist, he was fully aware of the human foam.

This man, only to separate by an easily breakable window was part of it.

However, he could not help but share his curiosity. Why a simple human. A child had decided to break into a vampire's nest ? The man sat up in her chair, finally pulling her feet off the table before standing straight in front of the man as she joined her two hands together. And for the second time Godric was surprised by the depth of her dark pupils. She looked straight at him and if he was not sure she could not see him, he could tell she was staring at him through the window.

In a fraction of a second, she returned to contemplate the man in front of her before shrugging her shoulders.'' I don't know what you're talking about but go ahead. Share your great theory about my choices."

"I have to admit, I thought you'd be smarter. Obviously, still lower than the average.'' Mercer commented dismissively leaning against the back of the chair with malice. '' But burglarizing a lair of Vamps, there is pure stupidity. ''

A silence followed his words making Godric even more attentive to the girl's behavior as she seemed to tend slightly to the agreement of his kind before she leaned again against her chair imitating the casual position of the officer.

He had to recognize, she was gifted to hide her obvious discomfort.

"Oh so that explains the library." She declared with a nod of falseness surprised before she snapped her fingers with a sarcastic grimace. "I knew I should have stolen the books too. You know, first editions and all that. ''

"Was she completely stupid ?" Isabel suddenly exclaimed at his side making him realize that he had come close to the glass without even realizing it. '' Shouldn't she deny it ? ''

The sound of a low moan as well as the grimace of tge Detective Johnson simply increased Godric's interest.

He had to admit that he had not been stimulated like this for a long time. After the first thousand years of his existence, he had discovered that the nights were quite similar to him. So bland and devoid of all interests.

''Normally ? The suspect claims her innocence but with Mercer... she just tries to play with him."Recognized the man at their side with a hint of embarrassment and shame in his voice as he turned to them with a slight tic in his facial expression.'' It can be said that they have a long history between them.''

"That day is just too good to be true." Intervened again the gruff, scaly voice in the man's content as he returned the famous brunette file on the table before crossing his arms on his chest.''All right, let's cut the shit. My superiors want to know why, how and what. Personally, I don't care less. Even if Johnson gets you out, you'll be dead the next night."

"How dare he ?" Sharply exploded the Hispanic woman contrasting with the calm young man at her side making Johnson almost instantly grimace.

This was definitely not what he had expected and Mercer asserting his own vision of the vampires was not really in Dan's favor.

He took a step forward hoping to do some honorable thing to contradict the cruelty of the man before them."Mercer has always had a tempered temperament. He doesn't really know when to shut up or-''

"What does he think we're going to do to her ?" The brunette interrupted him dryly, turning toward him at the same time as the little brown seemingly intrigued more than offended. "Does he think that we'd be stupid enough to kill a human on purpose or-

"Isabel." Intervened again this voice of authority making Johnson look nervously between the two vampires in uncertainty.

Finally the boy turned again to the window and remained totally stoic as he concentrated his attention again on the conversation.

"Hm." Hummed Dan with a tight smile on her lips as she tried to suppress the thrill in her backbone at the agreement of her plausible fate before she gave a sarcastic look at the asshole in front of her.''I feel a bit of resentment here. Are we still upset about the incident of the other day ? Yet your surgeon did a great job. Well, I would also take advantage of it to do a renovation of facade but-''

''Oh oh. It's bad. "Instantly recognized Johnson in a whisper before beginning to move away from himself no longer caring about other people in the room with him.

And as he foresaw, hell soon unleashed itself unleashed soon after.

"You think you're funny ?" Mercer whispered coldly, leaning heavily on the metal table while Dan sat up stiffly visibly aware of the change of air around them.

''I think I'm adorable.'' Dan replied sarcastically with a sly smile and a slight increase in her eyebrows.

"Little Danishka. I knew from the first that you would be a pain in my ass. You know what ? I'll really enjoy seeing you in a small cell. ''

The little brunette narrows her eyes on the man who clearly lost all the desire to play with him as she spoke between her teeth. '' It's Dan, asshole !''

An even viciier, wider smile was drawn on Mercer's vile face as he finally got the expected reaction from the little bitch and he leaned over the table pressing his hands flat on the table.

"Touched a nerve ?" He mocked with a disdainful snort, forcing Dan to narrow her eyes at him in aggravation.

They jumped for an eternity when it was only a matter of seconds before Dan leaned back in her chair with her arms crossed on her chest without worries.

An immense smirk overcame her feminine features and soon Mercer was the only one to glare at her in pure hatred as she waved her finger at him."Attention, Michael. We don't want to reproduce the same scenario as the last time, is not it ? ''

'' Dirty little whore ! '' Mercer finally exploded, swinging his chair dry before continuing with the irreparable. '' The apple never falls far from the tree. ''

In a split second, Godric had seen the child's expression change in a 360 degree and if he did not have the ability to locate the slower actions of humans, he would not have been able to see the Child threw herself in a leap on the table before she brought her hand behind the man's head to hit his face full hard against the hard surface of the table.

The familiar sound of broken bones entered his ears as the door of the interrogation room was suddenly opened simply to allow Detective Johnson and his colleague to enter a state of alert.
But it did not end there.

If the rapid and violent reaction of the brunette had arisen from nowhere, the man she had attacked was definitely more experienced.

Dan felt her grip removed from the bastard as she could hear Johnson shouting to her to let go through her mist of rage and soon found herself struggling against the man. He pulled her back causing Mercer more painful grunt since she had a tight grip on his greasy hair and Jerry was not long in joining his teammate in the fight.

However, they had definitely not foreseen Mercer's return from the moment he was released. He directly hit the brunette in the face sending her back with a deafening cry as her wrist still handcuffed was twisted at an angle against the metal circle before she landed on her knees holding her jaw pulsing.

'' Damn shit, Mercer ! You're completely sick ! "Jerry exploded through the cacophony around them before holding his breath as a cold wind traveled to the center of the room before the Hispanic woman reappeared from nowhere.

She caught Mercer like a rag doll and suddenly raised him from the ground to hold him in the air by his throat again demonstrating how puppets they faced.

'' Whoa! Whoa! Whoa, whoa ! "Quickly Johnson jumped up quickly after scanning Dan's damage quickly to look at the vampire with wide eyes." Easy, okay ? We don't want to create a problem. "

Mercer struggled wildly in the grip as he tried to scratch, knocking and grunting at the woman only that seemed to barely shake her as she gave a mortal glance over her shoulder.'' Is that the way you treat all your suspects ? ''

''No ! No ! It's... "Johnson gave a nervous look on Mercer's already blood-stained face as he started turning blue, purple before he shook his head quickly in negation." He's a man of law. If you do that... just rest him, okay ? "

'' Isabel ! '' Reentered a strong, authoritative voice in the door's opening, forcing all of the room's occupants to turn to the newcomer just to remain frozen in apprehension.''Let the human go.''

The brunette executed instantaneously despite her disgust and obvious reluctance, and the next moment Mercer found himself kneeling and panting on the floor.

Jerry undertook to go and check on him, looking disdainfully at the woman on his way, while Johnson seemed incapable of detaching his eyes from the omnipresent posture of Godric.

'' Excuse his behavior. '' Presented the vampire as if he were not talking about a plausible death situation but rather as a disappointed master of his pet's actions. '' We will wait outside. Isabel ! ''

Johnson looked in amazement at the retreat of the two vampires avoiding making eye contact with the woman as she actively sought Dan's form. It sounded enough to remind him of the girl's presence and he quickly turned to the metal table just to hear her moan before she helped herself from the table and found herself on her feet. He groped at the back pocket of his jeans in search of the key just as he rushed to the brunette before giving a glance at his teammate taking Mercer.

'' Damn, Mercer ! You couldn't stop yourself! "Growled the blond man with an expression of desolation before helping him at his feet by making eye contact with Johnson.

He gave him a nod that he was doing the task but Johnson could see the frustration and anger in the azure blue eyes of his colleague and friend. They had just been shown once again how high they were on the food chain.

Dan remained completely impassive and stoic as she now found herself in the good old cell of the station. She was lying on one of the benches still clean and did her best to ignore the scent of urine, vomit and alcohol lingering around her. Her eyes hidden behind her arm protecting her from the flashing lights above her, she could still feel her jaw and her wrist beating sooner.

That would leave marks.

And if she was not sure about going to detention, she made sure of it this time.

However, as much as she feared, she did not really care. Because that piece of cop scum was right. She had really fucked this time and even if she liked to play with fire, she still loved life. It would probably be more secure between four walls than outside.

The sound of footsteps was not long in disrupting the restful silence of her cell and she did not need to look to know that it was Johnson.

"Attacking a police officer ?" It was the first thing that came out of his lips and Dan let out a deep sigh before releasing her arm from her face to sit upright.

Johnson stood facing the door of her cell with his elbows resting between the openings of cold metal bars while Dan looked at her feet now with her elbows on her thighs.

Her hood back in place partially hid her from Johnson's sight but she knew full well that he stared at her as usual. With his green and dark orbs of hers in pure deception.

No matter what she was doing or saying, the man seemed to have stuck with her since she first met him. Even going so far as to compromise his career to get her out of business. She really did not understand what made him do all that for her but she would be damned if she said she did not want his help. The truth was that Allan Johnson had been the only true constant in her short life.

"How am I supposed to get you out of this once ?" Johnson said with a growl this time forcing Dan to raise her head to give her a black look.

"Never ask you to do it." She replied flatly before turning her eyes back on her sneakers Vans worn as a new silence followed her statement.

A heavy sigh soon broke through the thick silence followed by the rustling of clothes as Johnson decided to use another tactic. "You dried up high school again. Why ?''

At this, Dan let a bitter sniff pass her lips before settling back into a stretched position against the cold, hard stone bench.

She raised her eyes to the damp ceiling and filled with mold making her grimace slightly at the obvious lack of hygiene of this place before she simply shrugged her shoulders at the memory of the man's question.

''I had to work.''

'' Scarlett only make you work on the evening changes. '' Johnson defended with a slight irritation eliciting a small smile from the brunette to his knowledge. '' I know because I'm the one who asked her to hire you.''

'' The other job. '' Reiterated Dan casually further aggravating Johnson.

The man narrowed his gaze on the silhouette lying nonchalantly in a place so irrelevant for her young age and frowned more at her. He was fucking tired of trying. To worry about her well-being and yet, he knew he was the only one to give real care.

It was the only thing that kept him from giving up. That and the fact that he knew that in spite of everything, she needed him.

However, this did not prevent the fact that she truly messed up and this time, he could not help but fear for the future. Especially with the two vampires residing in the other room. He allowed himself to imagine what was happening at the moment before shaking his head by pinching the edge of his nose as he concentrated his attention again on the brunette.

"You really want to go on that ground ?" Johnson asked in a tone of reprimand before continuing with animation. "Vampires, Dan. Fucking vampires. God, but what were you thinking ? "

'' I did not know ! '' Finally broke the brunette by showing a real ounce of emotion this time as she straightened up to face him.'' How I could know! They have a fucking house with windows. They were everywhere, Allan. "

"And it's supposed to be better? Shit ! I thought you were done with this bullshit! "Explained Johnson again, striking his palm flat against the bars in the frustration causing the brunette to jump to his display.

A pulse of repressed anger traveled rapidly along Dan's veins and even before Allan could blink, the brunette quickly climbed to her feet before quickly closing the gap between them in an explosion.

'' I need this money ! '' She barked, stopping just at the bars separating them, letting Johnson stare at her with a hint of emotion. '' I could never fuck off of here with only a few freaking tips ! ''

The strong thundering shout gave way to a heavy, strained silence disturbed by the whistling breaths of the brunette as they clashed in a fight of glance. But it only lasted for a while, as Johnson finally broke the silence with an arched eyebrow.

"For where, Dan ?" He asked calmly knowing that the force never worked with the brunette before scanning her expressions to know she had absolutely no response to give him.''Finally a fireplace. Carl and Doris are doing a lot for you. And then there's Max. Don't spoil everything. You're smarter than that. "

The brunette instantly turned her eyes away in shame this time and stepped back a few steps before turning her back to him, clenching her fists at her sides. '' Leave me alone. ''

'' Dan- ''

'' Go away, Allan. Get out ! Get out of here ! "She cried, raising her voice a little more at each of her requests.

He remained marble in front of her explosions clearly not ready to abandon only the opening of the door as well as the understanding of the hubbub of the offices in the background soon to stop by the closing of the door questioned him.

He gave a sideways look at Dan as she curled up on her bench with her legs now against her chest before turning to Jerry as he approached.

"You're almost done ?" He asked, looking more bitter and bitter than at the beginning of the evening before he continued with a new clear disdain in his tone."The Vamps are getting impatient. It will soon come to light.''

This last piece of information took Johnson by surprise since he had not even seen the greater part of the night happen. He still remembered being in his small office of oppressive scratch-papers and then everything had speeded up from there.

He could not help but wonder if this was what humans felt in the company of vampires. This would explain why some of them were so quick to throw themselves stupidly on them to offer them sex or blood.

Fangbanger.

Jerry had told him that this was how they were more commonly known but personally he did not really care about their names. For what he cared, they could be named as they wished. No, what worried him more was the number of body's liquidated and emptied of their blood that they would find here and there in ditches.

He soon got out of his thoughts with a heavy, tired sigh as he passed his hand through his now oily hair because of the outside temperature before giving an exhausted look on the watch around his right wrist.

Jerry was right, they were getting closer to dawn.

"I'll be in a minute." Informed Johnson instantly receiving a formal nod from Jerry before watching him trace his way back to the exit until he remembered one important point of the night.'' Hey, How's Mercer ? "

Jerry stopped in his tracks giving a look at the brunette he knew was listening through her little cell before giving a look at Johnson. '' He's going to live. Hopefully this will teach him to be less a dick.''

Johnson let out a little hilarious sniff at the more relaxed expression of his teammate before turning to the entrance of the cell gradually losing his weak smile. He looked at her back stretched with a look of pure pity and disappointment before finally turning his heels knowing that there was nothing that could change things for her.

He passed silently through the strangely unoccupied cells this evening and soon refocused his way through the decadent offices of the station.

From the moment he walked through the door, he was again flooded with the sound of phone rings, paper and incessant clips of pens before he spotted the duo so strangely out of place. They both resembled statutes that could have been placed there for decoration. Their eyes never strayed far from his desk and those, even when the humans around them stared at them so openly with looks of pure contempt.

Especially the woman.

He was certain to say that the little incident of rather had already caused sensation in the station and he wondered when the point of rupture would finally arrive. He took a break to catch his breath by mentally preparing to endure the intensity of these two vampires before resuming his way to his office. The two vampires already turned to him before he had reached his desk and he tried to hide his amazement at best before settling in his old chair with a creaking.

"I want to apologize for the turn of events." Johnson immediately began to resume his professional tone as he made a new visual contact with the two vampires who seemed to scrutinize him carefully."Now if you want to complain , I am afraid that you will have to fill a good number of forms.''

"We don't want to lodge a complaint against this child in any way." The boy interrupted him suddenly and Johnson had to do everything to prevent a long sigh of relief. "On the other hand, we would like to know what it will happen to her later. ''

This somewhat put Johnson on the edge, even though he had come to think that these two vampires would not harm Dan, he could never be really sure.

However, he decided to believe his instinct as he finally nodded his head before letting himself lean against the back of his chair in an attempt to relieve some of his tense muscles. "Well, she committed a crime and assaulted an officer so she will spend the night or rather the rest of the night here. Then I would bring her back to her foster home praying the heavens that she would stay away from my station. ''

"Well." Just accepted the boy with a nod of his head making Johnson all the more nervous at his impassive expression before quickly following him as he and the woman stood up.

"And what about the other man ?" Intervened the woman, Isabel in a colder and creeping tone according to Johnson's standards.

It was obvious she was not very fond of the man and although she was probably frightening as hell, Johnson could not help but be somewhat grateful to her. She kept him from making a big bullshit.
Because to be honest from the moment he heard Dan's cry of agony he had been very close to throwing himself at the other man.

Well, that was before his speech. The mere threatening and dangerously deadly sight had brought him out of his stupor.

"It will be taken care of." Johnson assured with a firm nod to prove that he would take care of it personally and he almost thought to see a hint of an attractive smile on the characteristics of the brunette.

However, he swept it quickly as she seemed once again as static as before as she glanced at the young man by her side. The latter seemed to have his eyes riveted over Johnson's shoulder in a pensive expression forcing the latter to look in his turn just to stop on the closed door leading to the cells. He frowned, quickly turning his eyes on the young man just to feel a slight increase in his heartbeat as he realized the boy was staring at him now.

If he had heard it, he showed no sign as it remained totally marble to Johnson's greatest dismay.

"Thank you for your efficiency, Detective." The boy said with a formal nod before turning on his heels with unparalleled courtesy.

Even the woman who seemed just stolen from the marketplace seemed to be more left facing the boy. Johnson stood for a moment speechless as they stared at them making their retreats before he finally let himself fall back heavily into his seat in exhaustion.

His leader was going to owe him an increase if he was going to have to deal with other vampires in the future.

Isabel remained calm and composed as they made their way out of the station. They had another two hours before dawn but she had to admit that this night had seemed almost endless for her. She had to recognize the world had changed since the great revelation. Little since she had probably seen more than she could admit during her four hundred years but she could not deny her interest in humans.

They were so much more in a hurry so passionate in their actions. As with this Detective. She had seen the love he had for this poor teenager. She had to admit this girl had reminded her of an old version of herself. That of the Queen of Castile, the one who had many lovers before she was transformed into what she was today.

That and the fact that her sheriff had shown more emotions than in the last few decades was enough to make her react earlier.

She did not know yet that she was Godric's opinion on her action but she would accept her award without flinching. She did not want to act so impulsively but sometimes, being with Hugo made her more impulsive and it seemed that she was getting more and more out of her behavior.

She spared a glance at the old vampire by her side and found him looking deep into thought. His midnight blue orbs were focused on something beyond what she even could see and she wondered what he could think. He had been... almost interested tonight.

Not to mention that he had not really recovered all his possessions. Certainly, he had to suspect that Isabel was also aware of it.

Feeling her unsatisfied curiosity, Isabel decided to break their silent walk. '' Do you want me to get the necklace for you ? ''

'' No.'' Was Godric's immediate answer for forcing the big brunette to focus on him in the Inquisition.'' You should not have interfered. ''

"I know." Solemnly recognized Isabel recognizing the tone of authority in his voice as she lowered her eyes to the ground but not without resuming with ferocity. "But this girl... this human is..."

"Intriguing." Added Godric in a deeply thoughtful voice, eliciting a slight smile from Isabel in spite of herself as she looked at the teenage face of her sheriff with new interest before hiding it quickly as he turned to her.

His once empty, meaningless gaze seemed to light up for a moment at the sight of her sneaky attempt to hide her smile and Isabel shook her head briefly with a new impulse of hope.

Indeed, she was intriguing.
