Thieving the Viking
Pamela Ravenscroft works independently as a professional thief, she has been hired by the Fellowship of the Sun to track down a vampire named Eric Northman and steal any information that could help them with the task of killing him. But she is in for a surprise.
"How much are you willing to pay me?"
"Five thousand up front and ten thousand when the job's complete."
Pam sighed as she sat in the Fellowship of the Sun's office in the small Christian cult community of Dallas, Texas. The place was crawling with brainwashed idiots who truly believed their places in heaven would be guaranteed if they staked every last vampire on this earth, but it wasn't her place to get involved with the politics. She needed money fast and if these people were willing to give her it then she would gladly do whatever they wanted.
"Remind me again of the job you want me to complete and please Mr. Newlin be as specific as you can" she arched her eyebrow at the cult leader known as Steve Newlin who sat proudly behind his desk with his over enthusiastic wife standing behind him.
She didn't like these idiots in the slightest; she had been in their company for fifteen minutes and already felt like ripping her eyeballs out.
"We would very much like for you to go to Shreveport, Louisiana where there's a satanic vampire bar known as Fangtasia" he began with clasped hands
"Jesus would be ashamed!" Mrs. Newlin added patting her husband on the shoulder
"Yes he would honey" he nodded "Well we would appreciate it if you were to get in there and find everything you can on a vampire known as Eric Northman, he is Satan's spawn himself and he must pay with his existence. God demands it, any information would be helpful but we are looking for anything from letters that contain threats to any human hostages he has..., please Miss James we need everything on this monster."
Pam had given him the name Miss James as it would be ridiculous to leave her real name, after this job was complete there was no looking back. Gulping at the crazy expressions the couple had on their faces Pam nodded once.
"Alright then, I'll travel to Louisiana tonight and get started" she stood to her feet, Steve stood immediately after with a grin from ear to ear as he clapped his hands with joy.
"Praise Jesus!" Mrs. Newlin shouted
Pam rolled her eyes internally as she looked at the small blonde woman who reminded her of a fruit cake for some reason, Steve chuckled at his wife then diverted his attention back to Pam.
"The money?" she shrugged
"Oh right, of course!" Steve laughed bending down to his desk pulling the drawer open and taking out a large white package. "This is your first payment and a photograph and details on the vampire, we really thank you for helping us spread God's word of love. Jesus will be proud and if you survive we have a special reservation spot for you in our fellowship!"
Mrs. Newlin squealed with excitement as she clutched onto Steve's arm
"Thanks..." Pam said with boredom before turning to leave
"Praise the lord, travel safe Miss James, may Jesus help you through this every step of the way!" Steve called after her as she left the office with a thumping headache.
Heading swiftly for the exit Pam let loose a breath
"Thank fuck for that." She mumbled.
