Chapter 28 : Trust

I just couldn't believe what I was doing right now, I had a agreed to help Sookie and I didn't regret that, but I had never agreed to teach Jessica how to feel her maker or how to be a vampire. During that stupid journey to find Bill, I was doing a maker's job, Bill's job. I was explaining everything I knew about the bond, about being a seventeen years old vampire. I shouldn't be doing this because Jessica should have known those things and that angered me.

It wasn't helping her that was annoying, no… It was the fact that Bill was such a poor maker. She didn't know anything, that was incredible. If she had known about that bond, she could have done something for Bill and we wouldn't be in that situation, searching for him.

However, I noticed something. I think I was being pretty good at explaining everything to Jessica. I truly believe that I owed this to Arthur. He had always explained me everything and now it was my time to do so for someone else. Strangely, it also felt great to teach Jessica about everything. She was a sweet girl or rather vampire. She reminded me of myself when I was very very young. The fact that we were both seventeen helped a lot I think.

And now, Jessica was driving while Sookie was more than worried. However, I was pretty sure that soon we would find some trail about Bill. It was evident because Jessica was slowly starting to get used to the bond and she was slowly remembering where Bill had asked her to go the other night. And suddenly Sookie screamed, noticing Bill's car. Jessica stopped the car and Sookie got out, running towards the car while Jessica was complaining believing that she was a freak.

" You are not Jessica. You'll get used to your vampire condition and you'll even like to be a vampire someday. It will take time of course, but trust me everything will work out in the end. "

" I hope you're right. "

" There's a body in here, but it's not Bill. " Sookie screamed as I watched her. " Give me a hand. "

Jessica was immediately helping Sookie and got quickly the body out of the car and that was when I noticed something. That dead man was a werewolf, I could smell it and it was disgusting. What the hell was a werewolf doing here ? Why did werewolves kidnap Bill ? That was just unbelievable. There was something wrong with this and strangely I could feel that finding Bill was going to get a little bit more dangerous than I thought. Godric had been right, I shouldn't have proposed my help. I knew that soon I would regret it, I had this little feeling inside of me telling me that this was not right.

Now, should I tell Sookie about the werewolf ? I didn't really know but I decided to stay silent because it seemed that Jessica didn't recognize this disgusting scent, which was strange because every vampires should be able to recognize it but then again with such a shitty maker, she wasn't the one to blame. And maybe the fact that she didn't smell it was a good thing, she wasn't going to say anything and maybe I could understand why werewolves were after Bill. Anyway, Sookie didn't really need to know about werewolves existence… It was too dangerous.

" There's a symbol here on his neck. " Jessica said and I approached. I've never seen that before and it intrigued me.

" Elizabeth, have you ever seen it before ? " Sookie asked.

I shook my head. " No, never. I'm sorry. "

" Maybe we could use google ? " Jessica proposed and everyone nodded.

A few minutes later, Jessica had found something about operation werewolf, some kind of secretNazi commando forcefrom World War II.

" Werewolves ? Werewolves exist ? No, it's impossible. " Sookie said, clearly dumbfounded. I really wish that she hadn't learned about werewolves.

" It is and the dead man in here was one of them. " I simply said.

" Oh my God werewolves exist… But now how do we find Bill ? "

That was a very good question and I didn't have the answer. Maybe Jessica could try to find Bill but something told me that it wasn't going to work. Then, I didn't know how we could find Bill, it wasn't like we had any connections in the were community, I certainly didn't. I hated werewolves, they were vicious and our natural enemies. All my encounters with werewolves had always ended up pretty badly. well, of course not for me but for those werewolves.

In fact, Arthur had always protected me when werewolves strangely tried to attack us. He had always been there, taking care of them while they were always somehow attracted to me. They always seemed so obsessed with me, it seemed like I was the only one they wanted. I've never understood that and I didn't really care, werewolves were stupid creatures, so I started to get used to that. In fact, it only happened when I was a new born, and Arthur was always very worried. He wanted to kill them all, he seemed afraid by them. That was also a strange thing but well, being a new born, he only wanted to protect me.

" I don't know. Do you feel anything Jessica ? " I asked as my eyes fell on her. She shook her head and Sookie sighed, disappointed. " Okay. We need to know what is this operation werewolf and then maybe we'll find something that can help us. I think this is the only solution."

" Do you think you can find something about that ? " Sookie asked me.

" I'm sorry but I don't think so. I'm not very fond of werewolves and I know nothing about this operation werewolf. I was not in Europe when it happened. "

I could see the hurt on Sookie's face. She thought that she was close to find a way to save Bill and I had nearly completely destroyed her hopes. However, I was only being honest with her. There was nothing I could do right now for her. Maybe I could ask Godric about that, he was older and probably knew something about that.

" Maybe Eric knows something. " Sookie muttered to herself. " We're going to Fangtasia. "


" Can I trust you Elizabeth ? " Jessica asked me, whispering, probably hoping that Sookie wouldn't hear. We were both sitting in the backseat, because Jessica wanted to ask me some questions about her vampire life. So Sookie had proposed us to sit in the backseat, while she was driving to Fangtasia. I think that Sookie liked the fact that she didn't have to talk to us, it was evident that she was refraining herself from crying…

" You can. "

She bit her bottom lip, she looked disturbed. Something told me that she had done something wrong, and that she needed advice. Poor girl, she probably didn't know what to do.

She shot a glance at Sookie who was concentrated on the road and wasn't listening to us. " How do you know when you have to stop when you're feeding on someone ? "

I raised my eyebrows, didn't she know about that ? It was one of the first thing you learned when you became a vampire, or that was what I had first learned. Then I had to remember that Bill wasn't the perfect maker, he was far from it.

" You feel it in the blood, the heartbeat slows and then you just stop. It's pretty easy. "

" How do you stop ? " She asked.

" It's different for everyone, you have concentrate on something that will make you stop, something that disgusts you for example. "

She nodded but I could tell that she still had other questions.

" Okay, hum let's say that you killed somebody by accident, what would you do with the body ? " She asked and I understood everything now. She had drained someone, and now she needed to get rid of the body. I would have laughed if Sookie hadn't been here.

" You need a chain saw. " I answered, knowing that it was one of the only way to hide what you had done. It was a little bit disgusting to use that but it was very useful.

" What do I do with a chain saw ? " She asked as her eyes opened wide. She seemed shocked.

" What do you think ? "

" Oh my god, that's gross. " Jessica said.

I chuckled. That was gross but she needed to get used to that kind of thing. Being a vampire meant that you were going to do those kind of thing for the rest of your life. She was young but she would soon learn about everything.

" You'll get used to this, but next time just try to be more careful, Jessica. " She nodded and I could see in her eyes that she was feeling guilty about what she had done. And once again, she reminded me of myself when I first killed a human. She couldn't control herself and she shouldn't blame herself for that, if someone was to blame, it was Bill. " You're not a monster Jessica. It happens to everyone you know. It was just an accident, don't think about it anymore. "

" He had a family. I… " She whispered.

" Jessica, listen to me. It doesn't matter, he's dead now and you just need to think about hiding the fact that you've drained him. Don't think about anything and you are not a monster; If you only knew how many humans I've killed. They had a family too and I learned to live with that. Sometimes we just can't control ourselves and you, you are still young, don't worry about what you've done. Just forget about it. "

She stared at me but I didn't know what she was thinking. She seemed a little bit shocked by what I had just said. It was cruel of course, because that man had a family but Jessica needed to think about herself. Accidents happened and it didn't matter anymore.

" How long have you been a vampire ? " She asked and seemed to have understood that she shouldn't think about her dead human.

" For two hundred years and just like you I was seventeen. "

" How did you deal with your transformation and everything ? "

I smiled at her. " Well, I was not very happy and I had a hard time dealing with everything as you said but my maker helped me a lot. "

Before Jessica had the time to ask me anything, we arrived at Fangtasia and Sookie quickly ran towards the door as Jessica and I followed her. Strangely the bar was closed tonight and when Pam saw us, she sighed in annoyance.

" What a lovely surprise, Sookie. " She said and seconds later Eric was standing in front of us.

" Bill's been kidnapped and we found this mark on a dead man's neck. It stands for operation werewolf. We know that this man was a werewolf, but now what does that thing mean ? " Sookie quickly said to Eric and showed him the mark on Jessica's phone.

" Hello to you too Sookie. " Eric said.


Eric was lying and hiding something, that was evident. I could see it in his eyes and the way he was talking to Sookie. When his eyes fell on the mark, he tensed. He knew something about that mark, he had seen it before but he was denying it. The worst thing was that I didn't know how I could get him to tell the truth. He had ordered us to go in the bathroom while he was talking to Sookie. It angered me a lot but I had agreed. And now, while Pam and Jessica were talking I was trying to hear what Eric was saying.

Though, I was clearly disappointed. He wasn't saying anything interesting. It was pointless to listen.

" You've worked things out with Godric, haven't you Elizabeth ? " Pam asked me and I was pretty sure that she was referring to last night's events. Of course, she had probably heard us, maybe even seen us. Though, I didn't really care.

" You already know that answer Pam, don't you ? "

She smirked at me. " I must say that you were very attractive last night, so wild and… "

" Thank you Pam, but I don't want to hear it. " I interrupted her, not really wanting to listen to her compliments. I wasn't embarrassed, it was even funny but honestly right now I didn't want to hear anything weird.

She laughed and ran a hand through her hair.

" You know Pam, maybe you should find yourself a little toy, you seem awfully horny. " I said.

" I'm working on it. "

Jessica chuckled but seemed rather uncomfortable. " It will be dawn soon, I need to go home. " Jessica said and we soon got out of ladies room.

Sookie had been crying and was wiping her tears away when Jessica asked her to go back home. She waved at me and I decided to follow her outside. I couldn't let her leave like that.

" Thank you for your help, Elizabeth. " She said to me and tried to smile.

" I wish I could have done more. Don't worry Sookie, I'm sure that we'll find him. Maybe Jessica will feel him. " I looked at the young vampire who nodded.

" Maybe. Come on, Jessica. Let's get you home before dawn. " Sookie said as she got inside her car.

" Thank you for everything Elizabeth.. I was wondering if maybe I could ask you some things about my new vampire life since we were both seventeen when… "

" I'll be glad to help you. " I interrupted her, smiling.

She nodded and got in the car. I watched them leave and ran in Fangtasia with vampire speed.

" You've lied to her, Eric. You've already seen that mark somewhere, haven't you ? " I asked as I stood now in front of him, my hands resting on my hips. I wasn't angry at him for lying to Sookie because he had every reason to do this. Sookie would do anything in order to find Bill, and that was dangerous. I was just angry that he was hiding something.

" It doesn't concern you Elizabeth. "

I raised my eyebrows. I was not Sookie, he could tell me what was happening, it wasn't like I was going to tell Sookie about everything. I wanted to protect her too, strangely. I've never felt like that towards a human, but I felt the need to protect her.

" Listen Eric, Sookie helped us in Dallas, I think it's right if at least I help her finding Bill. I can search for Bill all alone, I won't tell her anything so please just tell me what you know about that mark. "

He stayed silent as he stared at me. And now, I was really getting angry. Why was he being so secretive with me ? I wanted to help Sookie and he knew something, why couldn't he tell me about that ? I wasn't human, I wasn't Sookie, I could take care of myself. That was so frustrating.

" Eric. "

" Just leave. I don't want to deal with you. "

I was ready to argue but when his fangs extended I decided that it was better to leave, as much as I hated that idea. I knew that he wasn't going to tell me anything and I just didn't want us to fight. I was not in the mood and that was something I didn't want to do. Eric and I were slowly becoming friends, I wasn't going to destroy everything like that.

And in fact, it didn't matter, I would find answers and I would find them soon. If Eric knew something, Godric probably knew it too. They had spent a thousand years together after all. Godric wasn't going to lie to me about that, even if he tried to, I would find a way to make him tell me the truth. I could be very persuasive.

So, I left Fangtasia. On the way home, I couldn't help but think that something was wrong with Eric. He had tensed when he saw that mark, Eric was not like that usually. He seemed so vulnerable and hurt. He knew this mark and it meant something to him.

However, I couldn't even imagine what that meant. It seemed serious, but I didn't know. I was eager to get some answers from Godric. Maybe I was too curious but after all this was for Sookie.

When I entered, Godric was in front of me in a flash. « I was worried, Elizabeth. » He said and stared at me. He was starting to get overprotective with me, that was annoying. I wasn't going to die or anything, everything was perfectly fine. I was okay now.

" Godric, I told you that I'll be fine. There's no need to be worried about me. I can take care of myself. Stop being so worried for me. "

He stayed silent and went in the living room, sitting on the sofa. I didn't know if he was angry at me or something else. Well, I didn't want to think about that now.

I joined him on the sofa, ready to tell him everything I've learned tonight. Strangely, I was excited.

" We didn't find Bill, but we found something interesting. And Bill's a poor maker. "

" How so ? "

I smiled. " Jessica didn't know anything and I had to do Bill's job. Strangely it was great you know, it felt so right to explain her everything. Jessica is really nice, she reminds me so much of me. " I paused, remembering my little discussion with Jessica for a brief moment. " Anyway, we found out that werewolves were involved in Bill's kidnapping. "

Godric frowned. " Werewolves ? Are you sure about that ? "

I nodded. " The smell was disgusting and we found something else. " I ran my hand through my hair. " That's why we went to Fangtasia because Sookie wanted Eric's help. "

Godric stayed silent and seemed in deep thoughts. He knew something, I was now absolutely sure that he knew something. That was perfect because now I was going to learn about that. What was his child hiding ?

" There was a mark on the dead man's neck. I'm pretty sure that Eric knows something about it but he didn't want to tell me anything. What do you know about Operation Werewolf, Godric ? " I asked and Godric tensed.
