"Hello." I called out into the darkness that surrounded me.

I was in my house but it was a darker version of it. The house looked like it did when Maryanne took it over but only worse, if that was even possible.

Age seemed to surround the house, mold growing on the walls, and the pictures that were hung up on the wall had distorted faces. I touched one of the frames that had a picture of me, Jason, and Gram, but it looked so deformed by age and what seemed to be fire that blackened it. The ashes of the picture flaked off as I touched it and then the picture crumbled into pieces.

I backed away and I felt fear seeping through me as I desperately tried to listen out for anyone. I felt a cool chill of terror fill me as I looked into a corner of the house.

"There you are." The voice was dark and I shuddered with dread.

I felt an urge to run and I followed my instinct. I ran to the stairs and tried running to my room.

Where was Eric? Where was Jason? Where was Amelia? Where was I?

The house looked like my house but when I ran into the area that was supposed to be my room it was in ruins. This wasn't my house.

"Come out; come out, wherever you are." The voice lingered throughout the house and I knew I had to hide or he would find me.

"Eric." I whispered as loud as I could and I hoped someway he would find me.

I went into the corner of the room and curled myself up into a ball knowing it was the only thing I could do.

"Eric, Eric please find me, please." I cried silently as I felt tears fall down my face.

When I looked down I saw droplets of blood falling to the floor.

I stared at the puddle and I slowly raised my hand to my nose but no blood was coming from there. I looked around the room but I saw no blood on the walls or anywhere else.

I took a sharp breath as I raised my hand slowly to my cheek and when I looked at my hand I saw blood covering my fingers.

"No." I whispered to myself as I touched my eyes.

Blood covered my fingers as I took gasps of air that I soon realized I didn't need.

I felt my panic raise as I put my hand to my chest and realized that I no longer had a heartbeat.

"No, No, No." I cried louder and the door busted open.

As I looked at the shadowy figure, the silhouette looked like Eric's and I stood up as hope filled me but as the shadow stepped into the light, Russell stood before me.

"No." I stepped back, knocking the nightstand down behind me.

"Hello my dear, you know never to scare me like that. I was worried sick about you." He laughed as he took a step closer to me.

"Where's Eric?" I yelled at him as he touched my cheek and I shook him away.

"What are you talking about?" He asked as confusion filled his voice.

"Eric, where the fuck is he?" I screamed at him.

"Sookie." He shook his head as he took a step back from me.

Confusion filled me as I stared at Russell and I saw his form start to change.

I gasped as I saw Eric stand before me.

"I am Eric." He smiled coldly as he descended upon me.

He pushed me down to the ground and I screamed as loud as I could until he put a hand over my mouth.

"Your mine now." Russell's voice came out of Eric's mouth and I screamed until I woke up.

"Sookie wake up!" Eric yelled at me.

I saw Eric on top of me with his hands holding me down.

"What happened?" I asked him.

"You were having a bad dream; your panic woke me up. Are you okay?" He asked as he loosened his grip on me and fell to my side.

"I dreamt of Russell and… you." I told him and his eyebrow slightly rose.

"What happened?"

"Please, I can't talk about it." I felt myself still shaking and I knew I couldn't talk about it yet.

The very thought of Russell turning me into a vampire scared the crap out of me, but why did I dream of Eric as well? I knew I didn't want to be a vampire but what if I was forced into it.

"Sookie if it's bothering you please let me help you." He pleaded with me.

"Eric I need you to promise me something." I didn't want to talk about the dream but I would address something about it.

"Anything."

"If something was to happen to me, that I couldn't be saved from with or without your blood, I need you to promise that you will not change me." His eyes widened in shock and he shook his head.

"I can't promise that."

"Eric please." I begged him and he stood up.

"Sookie I cannot and I will not promise you that. Don't you know how important you are to me? If I lose you I'm not sure what I would do." The pain on his face broke my heart but I didn't want to be a vampire and if he really loved me he would respect this.

"Eric I don't want to be a vampire, please promise me this." I locked eyes with Eric and I saw anger start to fill his eyes.

"Is the idea of being with me forever so unappealing to you?" He yelled at me and I flinched.

"This isn't about you; this is about the way I feel. I love you so much that if I was in your place and you asked this of me I would respect your wishes. If you truly love me you will honor my choice." I told him calmly.

"Please don't make me promise this." He said lowly.

"Eric maybe if something does happen to me your blood will be enough; it has been in the past. I'm just saying that if something happens to me, something really bad, I need you to promise me you won't change me. I'm not meant to be a vampire." I told him.

"You don't know that."

"I'm a fairy, that should be reason enough." I smiled at him but he still looked angry.

"If you love me you will do this for me."

A long silence filled the air and I saw a small blood tear in the corner of Eric's eye before he quickly wiped it away.

"I promise, no matter how much I may want to keep you, I will not turn you." He sighed and I smiled at him.

"Thank you." He slowly made his way back over to the bed.

"I don't like this promise." He muttered.

"I know, but it makes me feel better."

"You never know, maybe one day you will want me to turn you." I shook my head.

"I don't think so." The idea of Eric and I together forever really did have its perks but the thought in the back of my mind would always be would it last?

I don't have any doubts about Eric, I loved him, but I was no stranger to heart break.

Even if I didn't have that thought I still didn't want to be a vampire. That life wasn't for me; I loved the sun way too much to give it up for the moon.

"You would be a very strong vampire." Eric said quietly and I saw him closing his eyes.

"It's still day isn't it?" He nodded and I kissed him on the forehead.

"I won't forget about this conversation, neither will I forget about your dream." He said slowly.

"Know that my choice has nothing to do with you or me, I do like the idea of us together forever, it's just not the life for me." I whispered to him.

"You don't know that." He said before he was dead to the world.

He was right I didn't but I knew in my heart I couldn't become a vampire. I would hate the thought of me turning cold and I knew Eric would hate that to.

I like being a hybrid and even though it made me a freak it also led me to Eric. When this spell was broken I would appreciate the friends I had because even though we may fight sometimes I now realized that they were just human and they had their flaws just like I did.

I would make it up to them.

I slowly got up, afraid of the dreams that awaited me if I went back to sleep and decided to go upstairs. I climbed the ladder and opened the cubby door. The sun shinned throughout the whole house and I could sense that no one was awake right now. I looked over to the clock in the kitchen and saw that it was twelve in the afternoon.

This was considered early in this house with everything that has been happening.

I stepped outside and the warm breeze hit my face and I smiled as I soaked in the sun.

I looked around the yard and something on the ground caught my attention. It looked like a little velvet sack and I looked around to see if anybody was by that might have dropped it.

I was alone but I had a strong desire to go see what it was. It felt like an invisible string was pulling me to it and I followed the string.

I looked at it and picked it up carefully. I unraveled the mini rope keeping the bag together and I saw a mini creamy green like trinket. It had gold trimming and I felt a strange attachment to it as I ran my fingers over it lightly.

What was it?

As I moved it around in my hands I had a feeling that it was of great importance and I wrapped it back up in the bag and made my way back to the house. I shut the door carefully and walked into the living room and stared at the mini bag in my hands.

I felt a power coming from the item and as I held it closer to me I felt an overwhelming sense of calm. How strange…

I tried to think of whom it might belong to but I couldn't think of anyone but the only thing I knew was that I had to keep it safe.

Whatever this thing was I had a feeling it might be useful.
