Chapter 6---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The sun was beaming though the window in the morning.

"Oh go away I don't want to get up yet" I screamed at the sun

"It's not that bad your highness"

I bolted up in bed searching the room. Sitting in the corner in the chair was Darren. He was back in human form just watching me.

"How long have you been there?"

"Since after Eric left" he looked at me "your highness" he blushed.

I looked down and saw that I was naked in bed. Whoops!!!!!! I blushed a bright red and pulled my sheet tight around me and scurried to the bathroom with a pair of jeans and t-shirt. I returned dress and saw he wasn't in the room anymore. I walked out searching the house to find out where he went. I found him making coffee in the kitchen.

"Your roommate left you a note" He handed me a piece of paper.

Sookie,

I will be staying at Trays a few days. You will have the house all to your self girl. Wink! Don't waste anytime with that Viking of yours okay

Amelia

"Oh I'm going to have to hurt her" I grumbled

"Is everything okay your highness" Darren asked

"Call me Sookie please" I took a cup of coffee and sat down. "And yes everything is fine just my roommate being her wonderful self."

"Okay Sookie what is your plan for the day."

"Well I have to work the late shift tonight at Merlottes."

"Okay so you are staying at home till then I'm guessing"

"Sure, it's a good day to sunbathe" I blushed red

He looked around the kitchen. Then he stood up at walked to the back door

"I'll be outside waiting"

"Wait" I shouted without thinking

"Yes, your highness" He looked back at me

"Sookie please I insist" I was a bit irritated. "How long will you be here if you don't mind my asking?"

"Till I'm told your safe enough and no longer need protection"

"What is so dangerous that I need protection?"

"I'm not entirely sure" Darren glared at me like I was asking too many questions

"I understand" I waited a bit before dashing off to my room letting it drop. I figured if I really wanted to know that I would find out. I put on a pair of shorts and a bikini top. I went outside with my small radio. Darren was sitting on the ground outside next to my lawn chair. I sat down and stretched out turning on the radio and just relaxing. I decided to find out more about my powers. I knew Darren had been informed of them so maybe he knew more then he let on.

"Last night how did you know about what was going on"

"I have seen a fae do the same thing once. The fight that resulted form it was not pretty." I looked around not really looking at me.

"I see so that is why you stopped me"

"Yes"

"What will actually happen if I lose myself to that power"

"I'm not sure you aren't pure fae. I don't know what would happen" he shook his head.

Just then like clockwork Claudine popped up just in front of us. She was wearing a teal pair of shorts showing off her legs and a teal top that matched her shorts. She had her hair pulled back today.

"How did I know you would show up" I glared at her

"I figured this the best time to talk to you since your vampire free at the moment"

I had to giggle at that. Darren looked over to Claudine with a strange look on his face.

"Claudine" Darren looked at her

"Yes"

"Could you put a field up around the property so I can change if needed" He looked around "Plus I would love to stretch this form isn't exactly comfortable"

"Well……I guess I could but don't you going running around like that very offend"

"Think you My Lady"

"Now Sookie" she said as she snapped a few times.

"What did I do this time?"

"Nothing my dear" She sat next to me on the other chair "I just want to make sure that your alright I heard that you got a new power last night."

"You know it. I almost creamed Pam. I feel really bad it was like I couldn't control myself last night. My anger got the best of me then when Pam and I where face to face it was like I…I was feeling a type of bloodlust."

"I understand my dear. If you plan on being around people a lot you need to practice surpassing this new gift. The last thing you need is going to work and turning into a dog or something"

Ha Ha I was laughing in my head even know that was one of my fears after last night. I looked over to Darren. He was still looking around searching the area. Claudine sighed, looked around and then said a few words I didn't understand then turned to Darren.

"It is done you can change now"

With the brightest smile I have seen from him yet he ran from next to us about 20 feet back. He started the change instantly. I watched at his body turned to glowing golden scales and his neck grew longer. I watched at he finally became himself.

"There that is so much better now I can relax." Darren smiled at me

"Wow" that was all I managed to say

"Don't be shocked Sookie there are many more where our young Darren came from"

"Really where is that"

"Well I'm not allowed to say but I a sure you there are more of his kind"

"Okay I'll take your word for it"

"Good I hate it when you want to argue with me"

"Well your not out of hot water yet then"

"Great" She smirked

"What kind of training did you have in mind"

"Well, I got an idea ready"

"I guess" My eyes watching her carefully

"Alright, go put your hand on Darren. When you do relax and try to concentrate. If anything happens try pushing the effect down your arm."

I very slowly walked over to a foot from Darren. I looked at him. He looked down at me and smiled.

"It's alright your highness you won't hurt me"

"I hope your right"

"Don't worry Sookie if anything does happen I'm here to fix it. Plus I have a shield up around your property so no one can see what is going on except us"

"Alright here goes nothing" I reached out and touched Darren. Automatically my hand started to grow scales. The scales started to spread up my arm. I tasted ash in my mouth. I felt warmth in my stomach starting to stir. I looked at Darren. He was not longer smiling. He knew what was happening.

"Sookie concentrate" Claudine scolded me

"I can't I can't"

I saw the scales continue to spread I was having trouble staying calm. I removed my hand from Darren and noticed that the transformation didn't stop I was officially nervous now. I opened my mouth to speak but the only thing that came out was a spout of fire. Claudine grabbed my arm and turned me so my back was to her chest. She hugged my close to her chest whispering into my ear. I slowly calmed as the scales began to disappear. The warmth in my stomach was now gone. The taste of ash however was still there. I looked at my hands noticing there where all back to normal. Claudine let me go and I fell to the ground on my knees. I looked up and the sky and that was the last thing that I remembered.
