It was like slow motion or something because when the wooden bullet went straight into Lorena's heart, she exploded into a million pieces causing her gooey blood and guts to fly everywhere. The guts splashed onto Sookie's dress and all over Bill and luckily it didn't get on Abigail.

Sookie quickly knelled beside an unconscious bloody Bill and tried to get him to wake up. Just then Alcide and Tara came running in.

"What happened?" Alcide asked worriedly.

"I killed Lorena who was trying to kill Sookie. Oh, and Bill's unconscious." Abigail told them, her gun still in her hand.

"Are you sure he ain't dead?" Tara questioned, looking terrified almost.

"He isn't dead," Sookie said hysterically as she unshackled his wrists. "If he were then he would look like this."

Sookie brought up the guts in her hand and waved them around at Tara to show her.

"We've got to get out of here." Alcide warned them. "There's wolves all over the place."

"I know," Sookie said.

"It's only a matter of time before they come-"

Sookie's head whipped up to him as she said angrily with teary eyes, "I. Said. I. Know." She threw aside the silver chains and looked up at them. "Please, help me wrap him up."

Tara looked dumbfounded. "We ain't got that kind of-"

"We're not leaving him behind," Abigail snapped angrily. "Now come on and help him. Wrap him up in the tarp."

They both cursed under their breaths and if it weren't for their time of the essence then she would've smiled at how not so different Tara and Alcide were.

While Tara grabbed Bill's legs, Alcide grabbed under his armpits. They lifted him up and put him in the tarp then proceed to wrap him. The door slammed opened and Abigail whirled around with her gun aiming for Debbie.

"Oh, you shouldn't have." Debbie said sarcastically as she pointed her gun at them, but mostly at Abigail since she too had a gun in her hand. "A vampire burrito? For me."

"I don't know what it is about you V heads that just make me want to punch you all in the fucking face," Abigail said coldly.

Debbie scoffed and angrily, "Who are you calling a V head, fangbanger?"

"Who are you calling a fangbanger, cheater?" Abigail taunted.

"I will kill you, bitch!"

"Not if I pull the trigger first and I've already done this too many times to know about the odds of you actually shooting me." Abigail told her, her face cold and impassive. "I've lived with an FBI agent for a very long time, had a two thousand year old vampire boyfriend and vampire friends, I'm half-vampire who's chalked full of Viking blood, and I managed to escape a psychopath who raped and tortured not just me, but other girls as well and more times than I can count, and was planning on making me his bride. I've also been in the fucking foster system and also managed to kill another serial killer psychopath and escape my vampire brother so if you think that for one second that I am going to let myself die by your wolf whore hands then I can assure you that you are fucking mistaken."

"Bring it on, you blonde bitch!"

"Anytime," Abigail snapped.

"Abby, I got this," Alcide warned her.

"You ain't got shit," Debbie yelled.

"Ain't no way you're pulling that trigger. This ain't you," Alcide argued. "That's the V talking. This ain't who you are."

"Alcide, I've been listening in and she ain't exactly misrepresenting herself," Sookie warned him.

Debbie turned her gun to Sookie and drawled out, "Okay, freak. Your mind-reading shit's getting real fucking old."

"Debbie. Debbie, look at me. Look at me." Alcide said quickly, his eyes pleading with hers to stop. Her face softened as he told her softly, "You loved me once. I know you did."

Tears started to come down Debbie's face and she confessed through her crying, "I'd given up everything for you…but you wouldn't even give me a baby."

Abigail's eyes closed as she thought, Bingo…she finds this as her revenge, probably thinks that killing him will make it go away. That's probably why she cheated on him in the first place. I kind of feel bad for her now.

"I'm sorry," Alcide said sadly, his eyes shameful.

Just like that, Debbie was back to being angry. "Oh, you're sorry? What was it that you said to me?! What happened to, 'I won't bring another one of our kind into this world.' It's too late for you to be sorry!"

"It's never too late," Alcide pleaded with her. "You want to talk about it, we can talk about it. Just. Let. Them. Go."

He came closer and she waved the gun at him shouting, "Back off."

"This ain't you."

"This is who I am now," Debbie said as she scratched the brand mark on her back.

"No, baby. It's just a scar. We all got scars." Alcide pleaded again with her. He took another step towards her. "Just give me the gun."

"That was your last step." Debbie warned him then held the gun with one hand.

Sookie suddenly screamed at the top of her lungs and damn was she a screamer. Tara used this as a distraction and lunged for Debbie who turned to shoot her, but Abigail shot her quickly in the thigh. Debbie yelled out in pain and Tara slammed her against the wall causing the gun to fly out of her hands which Alcide grabbed.

Tara held her forearm against Debbie's throat and had her pinned tightly against the wall. "Fuck you, bitch. I will kill you."

"Go ahead and try," Tara snapped.

"Get off of me," Debbie said.

Coot came running in yelling, "What the hell is going on in here?"

Alcide growled at him who growled in return and was prepared to wolf out and lunge at him, but Alcide shot him in the chest. Coot fell to his knees then his eyes turned yellow which meant that he was changing, but one clear shot to the head ended that as he fell face down onto the floor. Debbie screamed and then wailed as Tara let go of her and she fell to her knees beside Coot, almost afraid to touch him as she cried.

Alcide raised the gun at her head and ordered them, "Go. Go on and get him in the van."

"You sure," Abigail asked as Sookie and Tara carried Bill outside.

Alcide nodded to her. "Go, I got this, Abby."

Abigail back out with her gun still raised at Debbie just in case then she lowered it and helped them put Bill into the back of the van.

"Close the door," Sookie told them.

Abigail eyed Bill cautiously. "Are you sure?"

Sookie looked her straight in the eyes as she said, "Yes."

Abigail sighed and saw that she was telling the truth. Tara looked incredulously at them as she said, "No fucking way am I letting you in there!"

"Close the door," Sookie screamed at them.

Alcide came out and said, "We don't got time for this. We got company." They all heard the howls in the distance. Alcide closed the door on Sookie and while Tara sat in the middle between Abigail and Alcide.

Alcide stepped on the gas and they took off of the property with the wolves on their tails, running beside them. Abigail saw one on her side and rolled down the window.

"What are you doing?" Tara asked, her eyes still terrified and her body language tense.

Abigail cocked her gun and answered, "I'm going to take the dogs out for a walk to heaven."

Abigail went out the window and fired her gun twice, one bullet missed the wolf, but the second one hit him in the head. She came back inside just as Alcide violently moved the van to the other side, Abigail heard the whimpers as Tara questioned him, "Did you just-"

"Yeah," Alcide replied.

The wolves shifted into their humans forms as they drove into the dirt road and away from there. They were going very fast, but Abigail didn't mind and she had forgotten that all she was wearing was the black silk nightgown with nothing underneath it that Talbot had dressed her in unfortunately.

Alcide glanced over at Tara and advised her, "You need to try and relax."

Tara huffed. "Relax? I ain't even breathed for a week."

Abigail saw that haunted look become evident onto Tara's face like she had seen her truest nightmare and will be forever scarred because of it. She looked absolutely terrified. Abigail knew that feeling all too well to know that if she didn't take Alcide's advise then surely she would go mad.

"Then try to," Alcide replied. "Take a breath…you need it."

Tara stared off into the distance and inhaled then exhaled for an entire minute. After a couple of minutes of driving, Abigail's brows knitted in confusion when she heard, "Bill…stop."

She slowly turned towards them and listened in again, "Cut it out, Bill. No, please…stop…i- it."

Then her eyes widened when she heard vicious snarling and skin tearing. Abigail screamed, "STOP THE CAR!"

Alcide stepped on the brake and they went forwards. Abigail unbuckled her seat beat as fast as possible then she somehow sped over to the back of the van, but she never even noticed that she did it. She opened the back of the van and froze as she saw Sookie lying unconscious with blood spilt over the sides of her neck and a fully awake and yet disoriented Bill lying beside her. Tara and Alcide

Bill sat up and asked worriedly, "What happened?"

"You're fucking asking me?!" Tara yelled at him.

Tara climbed in beside Sookie and so did Abigail, her hands afraid to touch Sookie. She barely heard what was happening around her because she was too worried and scared about Sookie. She saw Tara kick Bill out of the van and scream at him. Alcide quickly closed the back of the van and Abigail whispered to Sookie, "Come on, you crazy blonde. Please wake up. You're not going to die on me-not right now." Tears were in the corners of her eyes. "I can't lose you too, Sook."

Abigail held Sookie's head in her lap and pushed her hair out of her face as Tara said, "Don't you fucking die on me, Sookie."


"She doesn't have a blood type."

Those were the words that rang in Abigail's eyes as she looked down at Sookie laying almost dead in the hospital bed as Alcide, Lafayette, and Tara stood by her side along with Jason.

"I understand that this is head, but as the responsible party here…" the lawyer told her and Jason. "There's certain decisions that you might have to make."

"I ain't responsible," Jason replied immediately. "Abby's the one responsible so you should talk to her instead."

"But you are next of kin," the lawyer protested. "She is only a first cousin, she can't-"

"First of all, she ain't no just first cousin and some shit. Second, can you just leave them alone please," Lafayette cut her off.

"But I-"

"I said, leave them alone," Lafayette said more sternly to her. "Go find somebody else's organs to harvest or some shit like that."

The lawyer nodded. "I'm sorry." Then she bowed her head and walked quickly away.

Abigail looked gratefully at him and he gave her a small smile. Abigail's hand tightened a little around Sookie's as she turned her eyes back to her.

"Fuck her. This shit ain't over," Lafayette told them.

"This makes no sense," Tara whispered. "How can Sookie not have a blood type? You got one?"

"AB-negative," Jason answered.

"You?" Tara asked her.

Abigail closed her eyes and then stuttered when she opened them, but she couldn't meet their eyes, "I-I really don't know because I-I…never, um-"

Lafayette's gentle hand came onto her back and he rubbed it saying, "It's alright, Abs. You don't have to tell us."

She couldn't help, but crack a smile at Lafayette's nickname for her. "Thanks."

"Sook ain't never been sick before…definitely never stayed in a hospital. Wasn't even born in one." Jason confessed.

"I didn't know that." Tara said.

Jason chuckled then explained to them, "Yeah, our mama was always waiting till the last minute to do everything. And Sook, she was coming out real fast, so there wasn't any time. Our daddy had to deliver her on the dining-room table. Saw more of it then I cared to." Jason's smile fell and he looked sad then. "You think it's all this vampire blood she's had that did this to her?"

"It ain't the blood she drank that did this," Tara told him. "It's the piece-of-shit vampire she drank it from. He's nothing, but ash now and good riddance."

Jason leaned down and held Sookie's other hand as a tear slowly slid down his cheek. "Don't you do this to me, Sook." Jason held his hand out to her and she grabbed it, gripping it tightly. "You're all we got, Sook. We still fucking need you."

Abigail gulped the thump in her throat as she said, "Please…come back."

Tara's hand came onto Sookie's shoulder. "I fucking need you too."

"Come on, y'all. Stop cussing at her." Lafayette told them softly. "We're gonna figure this thing out."


Abigail's eyes shot open and she squinted her eyes at the very bright sunlight that was shined upon her. She felt grass between her fingers when she spread them out and she quickly sat up. She glanced around and saw that she was in the cemetery, but it was daylight and looked so beautiful and full of light. There were small chandeliers glittering in the sunlight as they hung on the trees. There were all kinds of beautiful flowers around her and up on the trees. It looked so peaceful and yet still so amazingly beautiful everywhere she looked.

Abigail stood up and saw that she was wearing a white one shoulder pleated bodice gathered long chiffon skirt that trailed behind her. She honestly looked like a goddess in this dress or the dress itself looked like it should be worn by one at least. The dress was long and flowing and she saw that her hair was longer and curler. She also had one small diamond chandelier earrings and appeared to be barefoot, but for some reason that really didn't bother her.

"You're here," a voice said behind her.

Abigail whirled around and questioned the beautiful woman, "Who are you? And where is here?"

"You're in the passing portals between the other lands to home."

"Where is home?"

"Here," the woman answered then grabbed her hands. "With us."

"I'm sorry, but do I know you?"

The woman chuckled. "You look so much like her."

"Who's her?"

"Your mother," the woman answered. "My name's Claudine. I'm a friend."

"How do I know that?"

Claudine opened her mouth to reply, but Sookie's voice came first, "Abigail! You're here!"

Abigail whirled around with wide eyes as Sookie embraced her. "You're okay…"

"They were right. They said that you would somehow find your way here. I'm fine here," Sookie told her. "It's so much fun here. Oh, I've been dancing all over the place."

"You should come back with us," Claudine told her.

"Come back with you where?" she asked suspiciously.

"Our home." She answered. "It's more beautiful than anything you can imagine."

"How do you get there," Abigail asked as Claudine walked all of them to a glittering pond. Claudine bent down and filled a glass full of water and handed it to her. Abigail drank all of the water and giggled at it then smiled warmly at them, feeling good.

"Just swim."

Sookie looked worriedly at the pond and her voice ran through Abigail's mind: Hate deep water. Mama and Daddy were killed by water. Don't. Can't swim.

Abigail widened her eyes and chuckled softly, "Oh my God! I can hear your thoughts, Sook."

Sookie shook her head and then smiled widely. "But how? I thought that you couldn't do that."

"I don't know either."

Claudine laughed softly. "That's because of your mother, Abigail. She's runs through your veins, filling it with only her light. Come and swim."

"You see I can't swim…" Sookie told her.

Do not fear the water. It wasn't the water that killed them. Claudine's voice rang through her mind too.

"If it wasn't the water that killed them, then what did?" Sookie questioned.

There was this eeriness that came over them and they both looked up to the sky and saw darkness cowering over all of them and Claudine whispered, "The dark approaches."

All of the people around them froze and then they whispered terrifyingly to each other as they started to run towards the pond and then jump inside of it.

"You have to come with us," Claudine told them as she helped people into the water. "It's not safe for either of you anymore. Especially you, Abigail. Your mother never wanted this life for you."

"Did you…Did you see her before? Is she still alive? Where is she?" Abigail questioned.

"I'm sorry, but we must discuss this later. There isn't time." Claudine told her.

"We're not going with you," Sookie argued.

"We don't even know you so how can you expect us to trust you," Abigail inquired.

"Please, you must come with us."

"Why?" Sookie asked quickly.

"They will steal your light."

"What light?"

"Abigail, Sookie."

"No."

Claudine whispered to Sookie and Abigail, "Do not let them take your light. Abigail, you must choose the light and do not follow the darkness that follows the vampire Viking."

"What are you-"

"You're in love with him," Claudine cut her off then cupped her face. "This creature of darkness will only bring you pain and steal your light. Do not let him for I fear that your mother's history will repeat itself in your life."

Abigail stepped away from her and shook her head. "No. Eric isn't like that. He's-"

"A vampire." Was all Claudine said before she stepped into the pond and then glanced back at them, her eyes suddenly filled with…disappointment? "Oh Gods no, you are in love with him-madly in love. It's already begun now…"

Then everything went black…

Abigail woke up again inside of a basement, but now she was still wearing her nightgown from before. She heard the beautiful humming sound coming from a woman upstairs. Abigail slowly walked up the stairs and hesitantly opened the door. Abigail saw that the house was normal looking and looked to good to raise a family in. She pushed open one of the white doors and she found herself looking odd and out of place in there because while everything was bright and blended in with each other, she wore black.

She saw a woman with wavy gold hair that nearly touched the ground as she was rocking a white bundle in her arms singing a song softly to the baby in her arms that Abigail had recognized, but didn't know why.

Hhhhmmm

Oh little bird how young you are...

Soon you will become a strong little dove...

Dancing in sunlight with nothing but roses surrounding your bare little toes…

Oh, my little dove, how you will someday raise your wings and then begin to fly…

The woman kissed the baby's head and Abigail could not see her face, but she heard her whisper, "My little dove… your father and I love you very much."

"ABBY! WAKE UP!" she heard Alcide's voice come into the dream. "ABIGAIL! WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO TO HER, YOU BLOODSUCKER?!"

"No," Abigail said. "Wait!"

"I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO HER," Bill's voice came in.

"THEN WHY THE HELL ISN'T SHE WAKING UP?!" Sookie's voice came in. "ABBY! PLEASE, WAKE UP!"

Abigail walked towards her with her hand out to touch her. "I'm not…I don't even know what she looks like…please, don't make go."

"Always and Forever, my little love," the beautiful woman whispered to the baby.

"WAIT!" Abigail yelled as she felt herself weakening and then blacking out again.

Abigail jolted up in the chair and looked around frantically. She stood up, not caring about Alcide's hands around her. "Where is she?" she whispered.

"Where is who?" Tara questioned.

Abigail's let out short and quick breaths as she looked quickly around the hospital room, now struggling in Alcide's arms which were now wrapped around her, holding her arms down as she practically shouted, "My mother! Where is she?!"

"Calm down," Alcide ordered her, but she only violently struggled in her arms.

"What the fuck is happening to her?" Lafayette demanded.

"She needs calm down, her heart beating too fast to the point where if she doesn't, she may have a heart attack." Bill informed them.

Abigail felt like she couldn't breathe right now and blood pounded through her ears as well as the heart beats around her.

What the fuck is happening to her?! She heard Tara think.

Jesus fucking Christ! She's gonna lose her shit right now! Lafayette thought as well.

What should we do?! What should we do?! Jason thought frantically.

Why isn't anybody helping her?! Sookie thought.

I can't be around her like this anymore…God she's driving me crazy, Alcide thought.

It was all too much and then more thoughts started to sink into her mind. She squeezed her eyes shut as tight as she should and whimpered in pain. She felt something on her mouth and felt air going inside of her mouth. The blood and heart beats pounding in her ears suddenly died down and she felt like she could breathe again. Abigail opened her eyes as she saw that Alcide had an oxygen mask against her mouth as she lay on top of his chest with his arm around her torso.

"You're alright, Christy," Alcide cooed as he stroked her hair.

Abigail smiled lazily up at him then chuckled. He pulled the mask away and she asked, "What happened?"

They all stared at her with wide eyes and she shrugged. Sookie spoke up, "You started to go crazy. And no offence, honey, but you were batshit crazy. You started to scream and just-"

"Scare the living lights out of us," Jason told her.

"Oh," she whispered. "Sorry for that. I really don't know what happened…but I could hear all of your thoughts all at once and it just made me a little crazy I guess."

"Wait, you can read minds too?!" Tara asked.

Abigail shook her head. "No…yes…I don't know-maybe. I'm starting to get a headache now from all this nonsense. Seriously, it's just sad now."

TBC…
