I know I know! What am I doing writing another story when I haven't even finished my others. Sorry this has just been running through my head. Tell me what you think!
Hi, my name is Susannah Stackhouse, my friends call me Sookie though. I decided to tell everyone the true story about my life if you will. I want to set the record straight so let's start on the day I met my first vampire.
I was quickly filling orders and using my ability to keep up with what my tables needed from me. Yes, you heard right "ability." I already know what you're thinking. I am a telepath after all but please hold all questions I am sure I will answer them eventually. Anyway, my friend Tara had just walked in saying how she quite another job and I was convincing Sam to let her work here. When he walked in.
"Oh, my gosh guy's I think Bon Temps just got its first vampire" Sam looked over and agreed with me.
I couldn't believe it. After they had come out of the coffin two years ago. I was so excited so I walked over to take his order.
"Hi, what can I get for you tonight"
The vampire asked if we had any synthetic blood but unfortunately the last case we had went bad so Sam had us throw it out. He ordered a glass of red wine instead. When I returned with his glass, that was when I felt a weird pressure in my head. It went away after a few seconds so I ignored it. I returned to keeping up with my tables and watching the Rats be their normal disgusting selves. I walked over after a while to see if I could get the vampire anything else. When I heard, Denise talking about how much money they could get off the vampire. I quickly decided to get them a free round off beer. However, when I turned around they were gone.
Now I know what ya'll are thinking again. I probably ran outside to go save a vampire I don't even know. Well, I was raised not to be a fool. So, I grabbed Sam who grabbed the bat he keeps behind the bar to threaten drunk customers with. We both ran outside and I grabbed a chain that was in the back of a truck along the way. Sam whispered, "this way" I followed behind him as quietly as possible.
When I saw Denise and Mack draining the vampire I was frozen for a minute but Sam sure wasn't. He shouted at them to back away. Mack pulled out a knife while Denise kept draining the vampire. Sam was quick and hit Mack with the bat causing him to drop the knife.
"Get the knife Sookie" Sam said to me while he hit Mack again this time knocking him unconscious. Denise freaked out and started running away and Sam chased after her. I ran over to the vampire and unhooked him from the IV line and pulled off the silver.
"You ok?" I asked him
He just glared at me. I sighed clearly, he didn't like being saved by a girl.
"I'm Sookie and you are?"
"Bill"
"Bill..." oh goodness I tried not to laugh but whoever heard of a vampire named Bill. It sounded kind of lame if you ask me.
I tried to listen into his mind while we were talking but I couldn't hear anything. I was surprised but I wasn't about to let a stranger know about what I could do. When he offered me his blood I looked at him in disgust and said, "No thank you" after that I had about just enough of the conversation. Luckily Sam came back with Denise.
"Sookie go on inside and call Andy out here."
I nodded and quickly ran inside and grabbed Andy. I told him something illegal was going on outside to get him moving. He stood up and ambled along behind me. Once we reached Sam, Bill the vampire and the Rats. Sam spoke up and told Andy the Rats were out here trying to drain the vampire of his blood.
Andy quickly puffed up at that. A quick dip into his head told me he was happy he was capturing two criminals trying to sell an illegal drug. After, the Rats were taken away Bill thanked us. He looked at me strangely then vamped away. Once, that ordeal was over, Sam told me to go on and finish up my work.
I did and after that the night seemed to finish quickly enough. I pulled into my drive way and saw all the lights were off. I sighed in relief that no one was up. I opened the door and locked it behind me before creeping towards the stairs.
"Now where do you think you are going young lady?"
I turned around quickly to find my Uncle Fintan sitting at the kitchen table.
"Uncle Fin you scared me." I said with a hand over my heart to emphasizes how scared I was.
Uncle Fin just chuckled and told me to come sit down across from.
Oh, I guess I should explain who Uncle Fin is. Well, when Grampa Earl disappeared all those years ago. Gran contacted our Uncle who lived over in New Orleans and told him what happened to Grampa Earl. Apparently, Uncle Fin is a big lawyer along with his best friend Desmond Catalides who I call Uncle Des.
Uncle Fin came to live with us to help Gran out raising Jason and me. I wasn't sure about Uncle Fin until he told me he was just like me a telepath. He has helped me with my ability ever since. I can now form shields around my mind that keep the thoughts out but I can also change them to where it's a filter and I can selectively choose who I want to hear. That is the type of shield I use at work too keep up with everything. Well, anyway without him I don't know where I would be today but no more of that let's move on.
"Did anything happen at work today?"
I sighed "how do you know when something has happened. Jason and I couldn't get away with anything because of that."
"You know why dear one." Uncle Fin said
Oh, yeah, I almost forgot. On my sixteenth birthday Uncle Fin and Uncle Des told me the family secret. That Uncle Fin and I are Fae and Uncle Des is a Daemon. Crazy right but they said I was old enough to understand and that it was time I learned about other supernatural beings. So, I knew before everyone else that vampires were real.
"A vampire came into Merlotte's today." I told him
"Hmm, tell me about it."
I squirmed in my seat but knew I wasn't going to get away until I told him the full story so I did.
"Sookie, you know I explained to you how all supernatural creatures have their own abilities."
I nodded in understanding. "Well, remember I said vampires have what they call Glamour. I believe the vampire Bill was it, was trying to Glamour you tonight."
"Woah Uncle really?"
"Yes, be careful of this Bill fellow, I will call Desmond in the morning and tell him what happened tonight. I will also need to contact the Sherriff of this area to alert him to drainers being in the area."
"Uncle when can I meet the vampire Sherriff. You said I could." I pouted at him
Uncle Fin just chuckled. "Soon my dear the time isn't right just yet. Now get on up to bed it's late and you have training in the morning."
"Yes Uncle" I said I got up and kissed him on the cheek before walking up to my room. I got a quick shower and then pulled on my pj's before climbing into my bed with my cat Tina.
I sighed with a smile on my face and closed my eyes. I couldn't wait for tomorrow. After meeting my first vampire then saving the life of my first vampire the world just felt so different suddenly.
There we go that is the first chapter. Let me know what everyone thinks. If you like it I will continue the story!
