Chapter 36 – Let's go save our Boy's

A/N: Alright baby minions; don't hate me it will be okay… trust momma minion! I love my beta team kjwrit and sassyvampmama; they rock! Please enter the contest I am co-hosting with Sassy 'The Snarky Side Kick' and as always I own NOTHING… CH owns it all and she is my hero. See you at the bottom and remember to review.

LAST TIME: SPOV (Sookie and Eric have been swapping blood regularly and there are small changes to her fangs and physique. They had just had a loving night when Sookie gets a message on her cell phone.)

"Sookie, Hunter is missing. No one knows where he is…please call me as soon as you get this." and that was the end. I was turning around to look for Eric when I saw him clutch his heart.

"Someone has taken the boy." And with that I knew Hunter was not just missing but kidnapped. Well hell. I guess I was glad Hunter had some of Eric's blood in him now so we could track him, but would it be enough, was the question?

Before I could voice my question Eric's cell phone rang and I listened as he spoke cryptically into the phone. I could feel his anger through the bond and I tensed beside him.

"I see. Yes, I of course I know the place. I will be there within the hour."

"Eric, what, what has happened?"

"It was about Hunter. He said he had 'found' him and would only return him to me."

"Who?"

"Jonathan, Bobby's… friend."

"Eric where are they?"

"Fangtasia."

"Eric you can't go. I think it's a trap."

"I know it's a trap, but he doesn't know I know, that will play in our favor."

"I am going with you."

"No, he said I must come alone that the boy is frightened and asked for only me."

"Eric this is it…isn't it?"

"I don't know Lover. I don't know." He said as he pulled me into his embrace. Just then Belinda burst into the room.

SPOV

"Something is wrong at Robby's house. He said that he came home and found Evelyn on the floor she was beaten and unconscious. We have to go….what?" Belinda said realizing we already had a situation on our hands.

"It looks like Jonathan has kidnapped Hunter. Evie probably came in on it and tried to save Hunter so Jonathan had no recourse but to get her out of the way." Was Eric's reply to her.

"Why? Why would he do that?" before I could answer her Eric did.

"Money. He said he wanted money." He paused briefly as he turned to me, "I am going to go get the boy. I can handle a rogue Were. Everything will be fine Sookie; this is nothing I cannot handle. If you show up there it could spook Jonathan and the boy could be harmed. I will go and get him while you go with Belinda to check on Bobby and Evelyn. I will take Pam with me to Fangtasia, not to mention Thalia will be rising by now." He smiled his deadly smile and so did I. Then he bellowed,

"Pamela, come, we hunt!" Pam appeared in a flash with a wicked smile and after she was filled in on what was happening she grinned,

"Oh I hope he runs. I love a good chase before a meal." I turned to Eric and we kissed.

"Alright but you be careful and no hero stuff just in and then out, you got me? You get Hunter and come home." I ordered and he just smiled as he said,

"I will hold you by sunrise." And with that they left in Eric's car as Belinda and I popped out to Bobby's.

Bobby was holding a now semi-conscience Evelyn in his arms. She was trying to talk to him but then she would just lie back down. We helped him clean her up and I used my light to help with her head injury. It made her sleep just as I hoped it would. I felt so sorry for her being attacked by someone that she loved; being betrayed like that. A good 10 minutes had past so I knew Eric should have had enough time to be at Fangtasia and a quick check through the bond confirmed he was closing in on the bar fast. I was thankful that he would soon have Hunter in his arms and that the little guy would be safe and sound.

I suddenly felt a moment of thrill from the fight then panic from Eric and then nothing, absolutely nothing. No pain ripped through me so I knew he wasn't finally dead, but he was gone … he was gone… on another plain perhaps, but somewhere that I could not feel him at all, I turned to Belinda,

"I can't feel Eric." I said as I went down on one knee and when I looked up at Belinda she was bone white as she said,

"I can't feel Pam either. Oh God Sookie what is happening? Are they…gone?" Before I could respond through heavy breathe Evelyn said,

"He stole my equipment…all the gas tanks of sedatives…he took your big truck Bobby…" and with that Bobby gasped,

"Eric's coffins… the new coffins were in the truck. He ordered new ones, one for you and one for him…they were going to be a wedding present for after… when you decided to be turned…they match…" he was babbling but I had a sudden moment of clarity and a very clear view of what happened in my mind. Without one more moment I popped to Fangtasia to find no one there, but there was a thick haze and I felt so lightheaded immediately. I pulled up my shield and walked around Eric's office. There had been a huge fight. I knew then that Jonathan had used Hunter to lure Eric there and then using Evelyn's vampire sedatives he was able to knock out Eric and Pam.

I heard a low moan. Pam, it was Pam. Jon had not taken Pam he left her there on the ground. Or maybe he wasn't done loading the coffins yet. Belinda popped in and I yelled,

"Shields up! Pam's right here shield her while I'm going for Eric." And with that I ran out the back door of Fangtasia just in time to 'hear' Hunter,

"Aunt Suekee…he is a bad man… he's thinking 'bout a man named Steve and he has Uncle Erwic…they put a mask on his face like Halloween….they're doggies…like the ones they killed at my preschool…they shot the doggies…" He was crying and I was trying to key in on him, but I could see nothing, no truck, no car nothing. How were they traveling? Then I realized yet another lie we had been told; the pack had not kicked Jon out they were helping him and they had killed the guards we had on Hunter and now they have my husband. Well hell.

I could no longer "hear" Hunter and without a link with Eric I had no way of tracking them. I had a clue though…Steve…Steve Newlin… it had to be and there was something more; I could smell magic, Faery magic. I had no way of knowing where he was or what he was doing but I knew who would, Stan. Stan always kept a close eye on FOTS and their dealings so perhaps he would know something. If Eric could only wake up I could track him. I went back into the bar to talk to Pam and to call Bobby. I needed to know how long the sedatives would last when administered in gas form.

"Belinda, how is Pam?"

"She is coming around. He hit her with something too. She's not healing fast so it must have been silver, really old silver." she commented. I too had just learned that the older the silver the more dangerous it was to a vampire.

"She'll be fine. She is fighter and we have to find Eric. I need to call Stan." I saw Eric's cell phone on the ground and picked up. I damn near cried from just holding it but I held it together. I had to hold it together for Eric and for our children. I could simply cry later.

"Stan, I have no time. Eric has been taken. Do you know where Steve Newlin is right now?"

"No, but I will see what my operatives know and call you back. Can you not track Eric through the bond?"

"Not right now, it's blocked. Call me back on this line when you have something." And I hung up to call Bobby.

"Bobby, ask Evelyn how long the sedative will work in gas form?" there was a silence then he was back.

"She said indefinitely and Sookie, he took it all… every canister… he could keep Eric out for days."

"Well Shit!"

"Did you get the boy back?"

"No, he has them both and I think he is working for Steve Newlin."

"Oh no, no… not Jon…how could he do this… we love him… how…" and with that I knew that Bobby was 'bye-bye.' He was in the emotional hell of being betrayed and was no longer a viable help to me so I hung up on him and decided my next move. I called every one, and when I say everyone, I mean everyone. I told them all to come to the house as soon as possible.

Pam stood there stoically looking off into the empty parking lot…empty except for Eric's car. She was holding the keys in her hands but paused.

"He wouldn't want me to drive it. I should leave it here, but it's not in his spot. He parked in a hurry to get inside. When we realized what was happening, that the sedative was everywhere even though we didn't breath it in… we just opened our mouths to speak and that was it… it was too late. They were everywhere and beating me, but he fought them off me even though he was so sluggish. They bound him in silver and opened his mouth… that was all it took. Sookie I am sooo sorry…I failed you both…"

"No. Not another word. Eric didn't even see this coming Pam, so how in the hell could you? Do we know where Thalia is? Do they have her as well?"

"I never saw her." was the last thing Pam said until we got to the house. She walked toward the library and said,

"I am going for weapons." and Belinda padded off after her.

When I walked into the den, Laurell was instantly by my side. I only had enough strength to tell them what happened once, so I voiced that to her. While I was waiting on everyone Eric's phone rang; it was Stan.

"Sookie, Steve Newlin's private jet just landed in Dallas and he off loaded a coffin and a small child was being carried to the car as well. And Sookie there was a Fae male with him. I don't know who, but he was Fae." My first thought was that there had not been time for this to happen but then I remembered flight time from Shreveport to DFW was around 25 minutes and we were now at 50 minutes into this nightmare. So thinking Newlin would have taken him to the church I asked,

"Do you have people in that church?"

"Yes."

"Make no move unless they are about to kill him. I don't want to get some poor human pet killed trying to be a hero. But if you get word they are going to kill him, you need to go in guns blazing Stan! I will be there in a matter of moments. Do I have safe passage for me and my Faery family to pop into your kingdom?"

"Of course your Majesty, I owe you my fealty." and with that he hung up on me.

I called Remy and told him everything that I knew and that I was sure Hunter was safe for now. That Newlin had no way of knowing Hunter was special and monster or not I didn't think he would kill a small child. I had a moment to pray that Sarah Newlin would take care of him. She was a bitch and she hated vampires but I couldn't help but think she might watch out for a tiny little boy like Hunter.

I did not have a lot of time so I stood in the middle of my den and I took inventory of who was there. Laurell, Marcus, Lillianna, Alexander, Pam, Belinda, Niall and Claudine were in the back of the room. Thalia had come in with Christean a few minutes ago; they had been together, that's why she had not been at Fangtasia when Eric had been taken. Alcide and his pack had come in as well, along with Jason and his pack, Sam and last but not least Bill 'fucking' Compton had all been popped in by Faery Royal Guards via Niall's orders. I knew Bill was the last person Eric would want to see, but he was good with kids so he was my go-to-guy for getting Hunter out of the fight. I was sending Royal Faery Guards to get Felipe and Constance; I wanted everyone there. I was taking no chances.

I took a moment to pop to the cellar and I grabbed the closest bottles of blood by the door and then popped them to our bathroom. I laid out towels, our bonding knife in case he needed blood and could not drop his fangs. I paused to see if there was anything else I could think of that I would need to take care of my husband when I got him home; I decided I had done all I could do to prepare for our return home. I wanted to fall apart but then I saw the rose Addie had handed me laying on the side table and I knew that I could do this. I could do this for my family. I pulled Eric's broadsword from the wall and a few other knives and weapons before I popped back to the den, climbed on top of my coffee table and began to tell my family and friends of my plan and their responsibilities.

STEVE NEWLIN POV

Stupid vampire, I thought as I slapped him. He was wrapped in silver for when he woke and we would wake him soon. The angels who were here to save us all wanted to have some "special time" with Eric Northman and who was I to question the Lord's angels. They are agents of God and I was honored when they approached me to help end his reign as a media darling. He was a killer - they are all killers. I had an operative in place in Shreveport that had become close with the vampire's 'day man' whatever in the hell that was, but he was easy prey for Jon. Jon did his homework and knew what would win Bobby and his slut of a girl over. Her being a celebrity vampire dentist even worked in our favor; God was truly on our side it would seem. I was pulled from my musings as I watched Neave and Lochlan pull out a long silver chain. It was truly a beautiful thing.

"What is that?" I asked as I saw it had barbed wire wrapped around and through it but the barbed wire gleamed like nothing I had ever seen.

"Ancient Silver… it is older than the vampire and it will be able to injure him… deeply." Neave smiled and I saw the gleam of silver in her mouth. Breandan had explained that all angels had silver fangs to help protect themselves from vampires.

"Well remember we need him 'undead' to lure the slut here." I yelled. I heard a growl and worried as I realized Breandan had walked in and he had a thing for the whore Stackhouse.

"You mind your tongue in front of the boy and do not speak of my future bride that way. I told you she has been glamoured by him. She will be freed of him and we will be married." He bellowed.

"I'm sorry sir." I had to trust the angels they were agents of God. I had to trust in Him and in them.

BREANDAN's POV

I laughed as I thought to myself, 'Stupid little man, you have no idea what I am going to do to you and yours.' I would kill the Northman, finally after centuries of waiting I would have my revenge. He took my woman in the war and I would now take his. He probably didn't even remember killing Marlaina as he had killed many that day, but I would never forget. After I kill him SLOWLY I would send Sookie with Neave and Lochlan for them to teach her some manners and to break her in for me.

She would be so broken when I came for her she would cling to me and beg me to save her. My dick twitched at the mere thought of her bleeding and broken while she begged me to save her and oh I would save her. But while Neave and Lochlan were having their fun I would have some fun with the preacher's wife, Sarah. She was plain white trash, but she had nice tits and I bet she was a screamer, but I would know soon enough. Hell, I would probably be kinder to her than her prick of a husband. She might even like it. I was brought from my plans by a sniff, the runt was crying again.

"You weave my Uncle Erwic and Aunt Suekee awone…you are a bad man!" he cried out. I wanted to back hand the brat but I was playing the part of "angel" for the stupid preacher and his wife so I held my temper in check.

"Hunter, he is not your Uncle. He is a dangerous killer and it was only a matter of time before he turned on you and killed you too just like he has countless others. And your Aunt Suekee will be just fine. Now go along with Miss Sarah and she will get you some cookies." I handed him to Sarah.

"Come on buddy, I just made some peanut butter cookies and you don't need to be in here anymore."

"I wanna stay with my Uncle Erwic… don't you hurt him… he loves me…where's my daddy?" the brat cried and clawed at me and as the bitch carried him away I saw his nails glow.

"Well isn't that interesting." And I laughed as I realized this was a child of a sky Fae. Damn, my day could just not get any better. I would enjoy killing Northman and the child in front of Niall, right before I gutted the old man and claimed Sookie and then all Faery as mine.

SARAH NEWLIN's POV

I had a horrible feeling, a feeling that I had been wrong. I wished Godfrey was here. He was so intelligent so brave. I know that I had helped Steve talk him into meeting the sun but truth be told I fell a little bit for Godfrey. I knew he was a murderer but he was not only kind to me, he listened to me as well. Steve was a good man when I met him after my sister was murdered by a vampire; he had taken care of me. Now he was turning into a monster. I wanted to be free of it all. I was tired of all the death and killing. I wanted someone to save me, but I might just have to save myself. I cleared my head and snuggled the crying boy in my arms. He leaned back and looked at me and said,

"I am sorry your friend died."

"What are you talking about honey?"

"Your friend, Godfrey, I am sorry he died and you miss him."

"How did you?" I stopped my sentences short as I was shocked at the child's ability, but I knew what Sookie could do so perhaps this child could do the same. It was even rumored the vampires in our area had a telepath in their employ but we could not find out who.

"You are right, I am like Aunt Suekee" he said like he was ashamed.

"Well now isn't that something. I'll be honest Hunter; I don't know what to do or what to believe. I miss Godfrey because he would help us escape, but I don't know if I am strong enough."

"They're not angels they are fibbin' and they are gonna kill ya'll when it's over to cover their twacks." He was just a baby, could barely speak clearly, and I had let Steve talk me into kidnapping him. Steve was now a monster and I should have known. He was so cruel to me and I had just become a loyal lap dog taking whatever scraps he would give me. Well that was over. I might die tonight but I would die saving this child and maybe, just maybe God would forgive and I would see Godfrey again in the afterlife. I took Hunter with me into Steve's office to look for Jon. I found Jon and saw his cell phone on Steve's desk. That was my target, which was just what I needed.

"Jon can you do me a favor? Can you run to the kitchen for some milk and cookies while I settle Hunter in? He is still a little afraid of you from this morning." I whispered the last part in a confrontational manner to him and Hunter, no doubt reading my mind and knew what I was doing, hid his face in the crook of my neck.

"Sure Sarah, I'll be right back." Yes, but you'll be too late I thought. As soon as he left the room I locked Steve's door and ran to the phone. I went through the last called numbers and I called the one marked Northman and prayed Sookie had the phone.

SPOV

We began the process of popping to Dallas. It was time consuming and tedious but we were slowly but surely getting there. Felipe brought vampires from his kingdom and so did Constance. All of our vamps were there; I was overwhelmed at their loyalty to Eric. Thalia and Pam stayed glued to me as did Laurell, I think they were waiting on me to fall apart but I knew I could not. I patted my pants pocket where the rose Addie gave me was now stuffed and it gave me courage. It was Niall, who brought me from my thoughts,

"Sookie, I believe it is Breandan but I have intelligence saying he in Fae right now. There is no portal near the church so he can't just be popping in and out without notice. I do not believe they are at the church. I think there must be another location." He paused, "Little one I need to tell you though, that Neave and Lochlan are missing. They hate the Northman from long ago and I know that they would jump at the chance to use their talents on him."

"What talents?"

"They are known for their ability to torture and keep their victims alive."

For a split second I felt Eric and he was fine then pain ripped through me and I thought it was just from the knowledge that Niall had just told me but it was not. I was on the floor as was Laurell. Eric was being tortured. I tried to block the pain while sending him love and reassurance. 'I'm coming…hold on' I thought to him as I held on to Laurell and Marcus helped us from the floor. He looked at Laurell then to me and said,

"Close the bond,"

"Never!" We yelled in tandem. "I can take it and so can she; we just have to get it under control." Laurell said as she winced and then she closed her eyes. We both sat down and tried to concentrate on block out the pain as much as we could. It was then that I saw Pam. Red tears streamed down her white face.

"Please Sookie; please… help me get to my maker… I will kill them all…I know I yell at him all the time but I lo…please we have to find him. Can you track him now?"

"I feel him but it could take me a little while to pin point his location." I paused and turned to Stan, "What have your operatives said? Do we know where the car took them?"

"No, five limos went into the hanger and they all left in different directions. We have no way of knowing where they are right now, but Sookie I will find him. We will find him." As he left the room he promised to keep me informed and that he would call me as soon as he knew something. I prayed to Gran to help. I didn't know what else to do I couldn't pray to God it had been too long but maybe Gran could pray for me. Eric's phone rang and I answered it,

"Hello…"

"Sookie, I only have seconds, this is Sarah Newlin. I know you hate me and have no reason to trust me but please just listen to me. They have your husband here at my home; we are not at the church. Steve remembered that vamps can come in churches so we are in the basement of our house on our compound in Dallas, now put me on speaker phone…"

I paused and almost didn't do it, but for whatever reason I did as she asked.

"Alright Sarah you are on speaker."

"You are invited in my home. I invite you in, all of you. Please try to spare those you can. Hunter and I are locked in Steve office one floor up from the basement where they have Eric. I took the boy out when they were going to…hurt your husb… I am so sorry Mrs. Northman. I can tell you that he is bound in Silver and Iron. I don't know why but I think it was important. I do promise you though that I will save this boy if it is the last thing I do." Then I heard a little cry,

"Hurwee Aunt Suekee, the bad man is hurting Uncle Erwic."

"What is the bad man's name?"

"Bweandan, I don't know the other two. He fibbed and told'em he's angel but he's not…he is bad…" I tried to reassure Hunter that I was on my way and not to worry but I thought I was less than convincing. Eric was in so much pain. He was trying to bury it so I would not feel it but it was too much for him to shield me from.

"Hunter we will be there soon baby. You stay there with Sarah I am sending my friend Bill to get you and her out. You go with Bill, okay Hunter?"

"Okay Aunt Suekee… I will I can see him in your head." I had never been able to read over the phone so that surprised me somewhat but I did not question it I only said,

"Good boy and I will see you soon. Bill will take you to his house; your daddy is waiting on you there with Sam Merlotte and your mommy is on the way there too. I love you sweetie and you are being so brave." Remy had fought to come with us but I knew it would be better if he waited somewhere instead of coming into a fight he couldn't win. I asked Sam to stay with and protect Remy until Hadley and Sophie-Anne could be popped in to wait with him. Hadley had been beside herself when we told her Hunter was taken and she asked to come immediately. So as soon as The Royal Fae Guard finished popping us to Dallas I sent a team to France to retrieve them and stay with them at Bill's house. Suddenly I felt a pain rip through my leg and neck and with that I hung up and turned to Marcus,

"We have to go now. We have to…" The pain was in my neck and legs were horrible. Laurell, Pam and I were all putting on brave faces but we could all feel the pain. I sent love and comfort to Eric through our shared bond and once again told him 'hold on I'm coming' but this time I could hear him 'NO! Trap…RUN…go to Faery with Niall…RUN…go…'

"The Fae are luring you out. They know how to pull you out and if you pop in there you can't just pop out with him. Sookie you are more Fae than human now. You can't touch the Iron." Marcus advised sadly as I had turned back to him to tell him what Eric had said to me through the bond.

I realized that Eric had to be close, much closer that I realized. I turned to Stan, who I just realized was in back in the room,

"Where do the Newlin's live?"

"They have several homes, there is one about five miles over in the subdivision across the way, and the homes are like these, more like compounds. They have condos in town and a country house as well. Did she say which one they were at?"

"They are close…very close and she referred to as her home, so it's the house…the one close to here." As I spoke Isabella walked and asked,

"What has happened, do we have a location?"

"Sarah Newlin called said her husband has Eric at the house and she just invited every vampire here into her home. She said that she has Hunter and only asked that we spare those that we could." I paused as I turned to Stan, "get your people together, we are going in guns a blazing. I'm getting him out tonight. I will hold him by sunrise."

And with that I gathered everyone around me to go over the plan one more time and then said in a loud booming voice.

"Here is how this is going to play out. Niall and Claudine you are with me. Gammy, Marcus and Alexander you pop-in with Lillianna. Pam you and Belinda, Sven and Livy are on my six you are to get the iron and silver off Eric while I am busy and once you have him free I'll pop him out."

"Busy doing what?" Belinda asked since she was the only one who didn't seem to know the answer.

"Killing everything else in sight." Was my reply before I went on to explain to Bill, Sam, Alcide and Jason exactly what I wanted from them. Bill nodded as he said,

"I will get the boy out but what do you want me to do with Mrs. Newlin?" I knew that Bill hated her because she was the reason I was detained, almost raped and in a horrible car accident while we were in Dallas, but I didn't think he would kill her out right. I had a feeling that once away from Steve she would be a different person but I had no way of really knowing that. It was just a feeling, almost as if it were being whispered in my ear. I could almost hear Gran,

'You can't judge a book by its cover or a person by one mistake. Sookie, it's not ours to judge.' But Sarah seemed to make mistake after mistake so what are we going to do with her? That was a damn good question. She had helped plan and had prior knowledge of the abduction of an innocent child that I loved, not to mention the torture and murder of my husband, but she had had a change of heart.

"Take her with you. Be kind but… I just don't know. I know we are not killing her but unless she has one hell of a story we might be turning her over to Andy." was the best I could come up with at the present moment.

"Well if you are killing everything then I am going with you." Was what Thalia said to me with Christean by her side and he said,

"Yes Sookie, I think I should be with you, Niall and Claudine when you pop in. I have a score of my own to settle with that bastard. We all know he is the one who helped them hide my Nialla…Belinda from me and I owe him for that and more." I nodded and said,

"Alright you're with me."

"No daddy. Stay here…"

"I could ask you the same thing little one, but we know you will go after your 'big brother' no matter what I say. Be careful little one I just got you back and I can't lose you again." They smiled and embraced and while all this was endearing I wanted to go.

"What would you have us do?" it was Constance's impatient voice that broke me from that though. I explained to her and Felipe what I wanted and where. I then divided up the Faery Royal guard so that they could pop in my other vampires. Everyone understood their part and what was expected. I walked to Belinda and Pam. We circle up and I said,

"Belinda, remember your control and your shield. Keep Pam close enough to you and you can encase her with you. Pam no matter what is happening with me you stay with Eric. I am overriding any order he has ever given you on this. You stay with Eric and get the Iron off. Belinda you get the silver off and if I can't get to him… if my plan is not working, you pop him the hell home. You and Laurell can heal him if I can't get away. If it doesn't work out the way I want then that is the back-up plan you got it?" they said nothing as we embraced they simply nodded. There was only one thing left to say,

"Let's go save our boys" and with that I felt something in me change. I felt a 'snap' of sorts and with that I knew I was going dark. That is the only way I know how to explain it.

I linked arms with Niall and Claudine and I nodded to Thalia and Christean as we popped to the front yard of the Newlin property. I then closed my eyes and felt for Eric. He was here and in pain, so much pain. He was attempting to shield me from it but it was too great for him to do so. This pushed me further into my dark space and I looked to Niall and said,

"Come when I call...you know the code" he nodded and kissed me on my forehead and whispered an ancient prayer of safe passage and with that I popped to Eric's location. They all looked surprised. Neave smiled evilly as she pulled a knife out of Eric's body. I surprised them again when I cracked my neck, smiled my own evil smile and blew her ass up with a ball of light. Before anyone could respond I walked to Breandan and hissed,

"Hello honey, I'm home." I smiled and he hissed and we began to grapple. He had me down by my throat he was stronger than I thought but I knew that I was only at half power. I could hear the other's coming and I saw Newlin running for the door when I heard Eric gasp out,

"Run Sookie Run…liquid iron...run!" but I put my shield up and pulled Breandan into it with me instead and yelled,

"Do your worst!" The code of all codes.

A/N: SO apparently NO, I can't write a chapter that doesn't end in a cliffy! So will Sookie save Eric? Will she be in time? Or will she willingly walk into a trap to save him and offer herself up as a big ole juicy éclair? Oh my stars…
