Chapter 3- Harry Meets Eric
Harry pulled into Fangtasia within 10 minutes after leaving his home. He looked at the bar and to him it looked perfectly normal. Harry walked over to the line and waited until it was his turn to get into the club. As he waited to get into the club he listened to people around him. Most of them where talking about get a photo of a real vampire, getting bitten or even having sex. He thought that they where stupid wanting to mess with something so much more powerful then them. But hey it was their life. It took 15 minutes to get to the front of the line. The female vampire came out of the club and looked at him up and down with an odd look on her face like she was trying to understand something.
"ID please." she said staring straight at him. Harry grabbed his wallet and showed his id. She took it from him and looked closely at it before giving it back and allowing him to enter the club. When he did it, took him a minute to get used to the noise level compared to the quietness outside. He went straight to the bar ordered a dark beer, and found a table to sit down at. As he nursed his beer he and watched as the vampires mingled with muggles. He did notice many of the vampires turned to look at him when he entered. He wondered if they could sense his power.
When Harry looked up he saw a throne chair on a side stage with a seat on each side of it. There was a man that looked about 25 years old. Harry new that this was an older vampire. He was radiant; blond and blue-eyed, tall and broad shouldered. He was wearing boots, jeans, and a vest with a white shirt under. Harry guessed he was about 6'5 by looking at him. He was a very good looking man but just not Harry's type. Before Harry could turn his eyes away the vampire turned to him as if he sensed his stare. They stared at each other for a moment before Harry turned away and took another swig of his beer. The music changed and Harry decided to get up and dance.
He went into the middle of the floor and moved to the beat, losing himself in the music. He truly loved to dance sometimes. He danced the whole song while trying to keep away from anyone wanting to dance with him. When it was over he went back to the bar to get a shot. Really muggle drinks weren't as strong as wizard drinks were, so it would take him more to get tipsy. He sat down and watched everything going around him but after awhile he felt someone staring at him and looked up to see the vampire that he saw earlier on the throne staring at him talk to the women that checked his id. The vampire raised his hand as if he was summoning him. Harry thought for a moment before getting up and making his way over wondering what the vampire wanted with him.
"My name is Eric Northman and you are?" Eric asked, looking straight into Harry eyes. Harry didn't waver looking right back at him.
"Hadrian Potter is my name, it's a pleasure to meet you Mr. Northman." he said. Now that he was up close to Eric he could tell this was a very old vampire and didn't want to offend him in anyway. He also didn't offer his hand knowing that it was a muggle thing.
"Please have a seat I would like to speak you to you. And it's Eric Mr. Potter." He said pointing to the seat next to him. Eric watched as the young man sat down, knowing that something was very different about him. He could sense it that moment he walked in the bar that he was a powerful being.
"Thank you Eric, and please call me Harry. Mr. Potter was my father and makes me sound and feel very old." Harry said to the vampire. And smiled to himself here he was 27 thinking that he felt old by a simple name when the many in front of him was many times older then he was.
"Now, I am currently sheriff of this area and I keep track of everything here and I don't know what you are or why you are here. So before you leave you will be telling what it is that you are and what you want." he said starring straight at Harry and making sure he made no sudden moment that would be a threat against him.
"If you would like to know that then we are going to have to go some where private, because I can't ever allow anyone to over hear what I have to say. As you are sheriff I will tell you, but maybe we could go to your office and speak about this." he said, looking at Eric and keeping his movements non threatening, not wanting to get on the wrong side of the sheriff. He had planned to contact the sheriff sooner or later to let them known that he was in the area.
Eric stood up and waved his hand indicating for Harry to walk in front of him. Eric told him where to go and after a few moments of walking they came to his office which they both entered and sat down.
"Now that we are in a private place please explain it to me." he said looking at him. Harry waved his hand putting up a silence shield so that they couldn't be heard by anyone.
"Well first I am a wizard." he said looking at Eric. Eric simply noodded, knowing at the very least that Harry was a wizard, but there was something different about him he was just so much more then a wizard. "I am also the Master of Death and completely immortal, there is now way for me to die. And as to why I am here, I have been here for ten years living in my home and not leaving it. I needed to the time to learn to get control of my magic. I also needed to get away after the war to be to heal from it." he said looking up at Eric.
"Well, as long as you don't break any laws or become a threat you have my permission to live here" he said. Relief went through Harry because this place had become a home to him and he loved it there. For the next hour or so Eric questioned Harry on different subjects, trying to get to know the young man, because for some reason he felt a sort of bond with him and he couldn't understand why that was. He could tell that the young man was very smart for someone so young. After awhile they both headed up to the bar because Eric needed to keep an eye on things to make sure nothing haped. Soon Harry decided that it was time to head home for the night, as he was getting quite tired.
For the next few months Harry and Eric really got to know each other and the bond between them grew into a sort of brother bond. Eric became very protective of him, not allowing anyone to get to close to him. After the first week though Eric hired him at the bar to help out with anything that he needed done but didn't have the time or patience to do himself which was a relief for him. When Eric walked in on Harry sword fighting in his home with dummies he decided that he would teach him the art himself, bringing them even closer to each other. Eric was amazed how much he missed sword fighting. He had not picked up a sword since he was human but standing there fight with Harry brought true joy to him, and that surprised him because he hadn't felt it in so long.
Although Harry spent a lot of time at the bar helping Eric out, he also spent his days hanging out with Jack. He found they had some things in common and he was great with just coming around so that Harry wasn't lonely during the days. Jack loved coming over to Harry's house watching movies or just talking about different things as well as Harry teaching him. Harry was truly starting to finally live his life and having fun with his new friends.
