Like I said, I was alone until the middle of the day. As I was laying in bed, I heard Sookie in my head. Tara had broken her out and they were coming to get me. I told her mentally where my room was and I don't know how but they got the guards away and opened the door. I dashed out with them and we got out the front door. I had no idea what Tara was doing here.
"We have to get Bill!" exclaimed Sookie. Tara thought it was a stupid idea but neither of us was going to give up until we got him back. Sookie and I ran to the slave quarters while Tara tried to find the quickest way out. We waited on the side for the werewolf who had taken me, Cooter, and a trampy looking woman werewolf with him, to leave. I learned the woman was Debbie Pelt, Alcide's ex girlfriend. I thought maybe he should be glad that he dodged that bullet.
I wrestled with the lock on the door and finally got in. Sookie ran past me when she saw Bill lying on the floor. I paused in the doorframe. He had been cut and he was bloody beyond belief. I wondered if he was actually dead already. Then I wondered where Lorena was.
In a flash, Lorena had thrown Sookie up against a wall and began to feed on her while Sookie was hurling insults. I stood back. Luckily, Lorena hadn't noticed that I was here. Then she began to feed on Sookie. I grabbed something quickly and threw it at Lorena's head. "Let her go!" I screamed. Lorena dropped Sookie and she began to come to me. She tossed me up against the wall.
"I'm really sick of you ruining my plans to kill that girl," said Lorena. She bent towards me and bit me too. I screamed. Then she stopped. "You're delicious. What are you?" Then all of a sudden, she was pulled off of me with a silver chain. Bill had done it. I put my hand to my neck to stop the bleeding but it was hurting so badly. I stayed back against the wall as Bill held Lorena and Sookie staked her. Once Lorena had basically exploded, Bill stopped moving. I ran over and bent beside him with Sookie.
"Bill!" I said, shaking him a bit. I knew he wasn't dead now that I had seen another vampire explode. Sookie started screaming and crying and I was in such shock that I was actually trying to wipe bits of Lorena off of him. Then I heard a car door shut and I got worried.
"Sookie!" I heard Tara call. "Dallas!" She came in and I saw Alcide with her. Sookie told them to shut the door. "Is he dead?" she asked.
"No," I said. "When vampires are dead, this is what they look like." I held up some of Lorena and I saw both Alcide and Tara grimace.
"We've got to get out of here, there are wolves all over the place," said Alcide.
"I know," said Sookie.
"It's only a matter of time before they come back!"
"We know, Alcide!" I exclaimed. "Now help us wrap him up and put him in your truck. We aren't leaving without Bill." I watched Alcide and Tara wrap him in a tarp. Then I heard the door open. A girl, the same one from before, came in here holding a gun. Alcide instantly moved in front of me and I prayed that Debbie didn't shoot any of us.
"Let them leave and take the vamp with them. Me and you, we can talk," said Alcide, trying to calm her down but she wasn't having it. I could tell she was on V, she was acting the same way, if not a little crazier, that Jason had. Then they started having some kind of weird discussion about their old relationship and Sookie made a distraction so that Tara could knock Debbie down. While Alcide was dealing with that, I helped Tara and Sookie carry Bill to the truck. Alcide locked Debbie in the slave quarters and then he lifted Bill into the truck. Sookie got in the back with him and I decided I would too. The wolves were coming after us and the ride was going to be long.
Sookie unwrapped Bill and he was in real bad shape. "What does he need?" I asked. Sookie looked me in the eyes and I knew what she was thinking. I saw her take a blade to her arm and put the wound to Bill's mouth. He started responding but he didn't just drink a little. He started drinking a lot. "He's being a little aggressive, don't you think?" I asked. "Maybe he's had enough."
"He won't let go," Sookie gasped in pain. Then all of a sudden, I saw Bill flip her and rip her neck open with his fangs. He covered her mouth and I watched in horror for about a minute until she passed out. I thought surely he knew what he was doing. I was just in shock. Then I saw Bill grab my ankle and I screamed.
"Alcide!" I called. Bill pulled my leg and I fell down, pulling things off of the shelves in the back of the van. I kept screaming until Bill put his hand over my mouth and bent to feed on the wound that Lorena had left. Bill lifted my body and held me close with his other arm as he kept biting me. It hurt so terribly. It felt like it had been going on for hours but I knew it had only been a minute or two. The van was stopped and Alcide opened the back doors.
I wrapped my arms around Bill in a daze, still trying to protect him from the sun after all of this. I heard Tara shriek and come into the back. Bill finally stopped and I saw him look from me to Sookie. He kept his arm underneath my back and pulled me up a bit. I struggled to get away from him, I was so terrified but he wouldn't let me go. "What happened?" he asked and I shuddered.
"Let her go," said Alcide and Bill let me lay on the floor of the van. I started getting dizzy from the blood loss and I couldn't really hear what was going on. I saw Tara kick Bill out of the van. I moved in a daze, still worried about Bill being in the sunlight. I was still coherent enough to get down out of the back.
"Dallas," I heard Bill say in that beautiful voice. I shuddered and felt weak. I felt my legs giving and Bill grabbed me. I almost screamed.
"Get away from me," I muttered as forcefully as I could.
"Dallas, I'm-" Then Alcide tore me away from Bill and shut the back of the van with Tara and Sookie still inside it.
"I'm getting ya'll to a hospital," said Alcide and he moved me away from Bill. I sat in the passenger side beside Alcide as he drove and he kept telling me to put pressure on my neck. I could tell he was worried but I knew that my blood loss was nothing compared to Sookie's. I felt something that I knew was Eric, I assume because of the blood of his I had, but I couldn't be sure whether he was actually worried or my blood loss was making me think that he was.
At the hospital, they immediately took Sookie in for blood transfusions and they let me get bandaged up. Just as I had suspected, my blood loss wasn't nearly as bad. It didn't even call for a transfusion. We were in Monroe and I told Alcide and Tara to call Jason at the very least. Once I had been bandaged up, they just told me to eat a little something and drink a bit so that I didn't feel faint. I didn't think I could force myself to eat though.
I sat in the waiting room with Alcide and Tara and all three of us were distraught. Alcide kept his arm around me and I was really glad that it was. Then a nurse came out to give us news. "She's lost a lot of blood," she said.
"Like how much?" asked Tara.
"A lot." I, personally, thought that that was a stupid answer.
"What about a transfusion?" asked Alcide.
"We tried. Her body rejected it."
"Well, maybe you had the wrong type of blood," I rationalized. I couldn't believe that a transfusion wouldn't work. "I assume you checked her first, though."
"Your friend doesn't have a blood type," said the nurse.
"Everybody has a blood type," said Alcide.
"Exactly, but for whatever reason we couldn't establish hers and we are running out of time. I have never seen a reaction like that before." It started clicking in my brain that maybe what Sookie was had something to do with her not having a blood type.
"Check me," I said. Tara, Alcide, and the nurse looked confused. "Check my blood type," I commanded. "I don't think I have one either." I took the bandage off of my neck and went with the nurse to check. It was a rather quick ordeal and by the time I had new bandages, the results were back. Sure enough, I didn't have one.
