Set The World On Fire
Chapter 5 part 2
Chivalry Isn't Dead

Sookie gripped my hand as Eric groaned in pain, silver chains burned through his skin. His fangs were extended and I could feel my own trying to push through my gums. Eric was trying to hide the amount of pain he was in by putting a block in our bond. Just at the sight of his charrred flesh was enough proof for me. I allowed the FOTS members to grab my arms just as they where doing to Sookie. One looked at the musculature of my arms and motioned for two more to grasp my shoulders.

"I... I offer myself in exchange for Godric's freedom. And theirs as well."

"They're both traitors to their race. The huamn race. They hardly deserve any mercy." I summoned my strength to will my fangs into my gums. One of the first few lesson Godric taught me. I hoped that it was me personally that ripped Steve Newlin's throat out. "Maybe we should tie them to you so you can meet the sun together."

Steve Newlin walked infront of Eric to Sookie. I turned my head to see the new arrival that had burst through the doors. Bill rushed halfway down the asile before Newlin drew a gun on Sookie.

"One more step vampire, and the girl dies." I closed my eyes and turned my head towards Eric. I could feel my control slipping and I knew Godric would never look at me the same way again if I killed anyone I could get my hands on. Tears flowed from my eyes before I could will myself to stop. The flow of these tears is different but shockingly familiar.

Human tears.

"If you shoot here, everyone here will die. Ler her go now."

I guess i'm not important enough to save huh Bill?

"Honestly, what do they see in you? Soldiers, some silver chains for our friend."

I opened one eye and by the look on Eric's face, it wasnt' my normal eye color.

"Suzie," I could hear the pain through his mental invasion, "Your eye is missing."

I closed my eyelid over my eye socket. Tears still flowed freely from it.

Newlin's shoulder brushed my arm and I turned my head towards the paint ball gun shot. Jason. It was the name on the top of Sookie's mind. Her brother maybe? Another shot was fired and I could hear Newlin fall back. Bill raced towards Sookie, effectifly scaring the L.O.D.I. guys enough to let me go. I growled and let my fangs drop. I could smell their fear.

I raced up to Eric and used his shirt to cover my hand in order to help Sookie, who had run to the alter after me, unchain him. Eric let out a graon before getting up and grabbing Steve Newlin by the throat before I got the chance.

"Eric, do not kill him." I glared at Sookie before the Jason guy and I shared the same sentiment.

"Kill him." I growled along wtih Jason's yell. Stan's fast approaching scent drew my attention away from Newlin. I snarled as Stan entered.

"Steve Newlin. You have pushed us to far." Familiar Dallas vamps followe behind him. "You expect us to sit on our thumbs.. While you round up your men to come and lynch us? We'll kill you first."

The L.O.D.I. let go of Jason and he looked towards Sookie, who I now know is his sister thanks to a quick mind skim.

"The same way we did your father."

I glared back at Stan who had ordered the Dallas vamps to attack.

"Bill, Eric, Suzie, We have to stop them." Bill pulled Sookie away and I watched as Vampires grabbed humans left and right.

"Enough."

I glanced up and allowed a painful smile to grace my features.

Godric I felt a pang of sadness in my semi undead heart.

"You came for me, I assume."

Stan breathed on his captured human's neck.

"Underling?" Another pang.

"Yeah, Sheriff?"

"These people have not harmed me." I sighed. What Godric spoke was indeed, the truth. "You see? We can coexist."

I wiped the areac where the L.O.D.I. soldiers grabbed my shoulders to try and get the skin crawling feeling the left off of me.

"Mr. Newlin, I do not wish to create bloodshed where none is caled for. Help me set an example. If we leave you in peace, will you do the same?" I stepped around Newlin and gently grasped Eric's hand, seeking comfort. I took the time to notice that it was a paintball gun Jason Stackhouse had used to take down Steve Newlin. Bright green paint was splattered in the middle of his forehead. I chuckled.

"I will not negotiate with sub humans." I growled and Newlin bore his throat to Eric, egging Eric on to kill him.

"Jesus will protect me."

"I am actually older than your Jesus." I looked up at Godric and our eyes met for a breif second before his gaze returned to Newlin. "I wish I could have known him, but I missed it.

Another painful smile graced my lips and Godric quickly amde his way down to the alter and grabbed Steve Newlin by the throat.

"Good people, who of you is willing to die for this man's madness?" Godric glanced quickly around the room while my eyes stayed on him. "That's what I thought."

With a motion easier than the flick of the wrist, Stan let go of his human capture on Godric's order.

"People, go home, it's over now." The FOTS members slowly vacated and Godric released his hold on Newlin's neck. "I dare say that my faith in human kind is stronger than yours."

The last FOTS member to leave caught my attention. Luke. I put his name and face in my memory.

"Come." Godric extended his hand to me while addressing his fellow vampires.

"Sir, after what these humans have done to you?"

I glarded up at Stan and Gripped Godric's hand. "I said come."

Stan stepped out of the way and followed behind us.

"What about Eric?"

Godric smiled down at me while we continued walking. "He'll meet us at my my home."

"The one in Dallas?"

Godric nodded before leading me out of the church's main doors. Sure enough, Eric was not long behind us. I tapped into Sookie's mind to see what was happening with Newlin.

"I recon i've already been to heaven.. It was inside your wife." I chuckled as Jason punched Newlin and Godric tapped into my vision once he'd wrapped his arms around my waist and mine around his neck. He'd touched off the ground in that same moment.

"Jason, come on."

"Take your ring. Honesty my ass, shithead."

It was a short flight but i'd still managed to fall asleep in Godric's arms.

"Mein Liebe, we're home." Godric whispered as she shifted me into his arms.
