"I want to see my babies, bring them to me" I requested.
"I'm sorry child but I cannot. Their in the earthly realm with your body. Your in a coma right now and somehow your life-force came here. Do not worry I have fae watching your children" Niall said.
"I'm in a coma? I don't understand let me see my babies" I screamed out.
"Come with me. I can show them to you in the fae pond of life" Nial said and led me down a winding path. We approached a circular pond that was so calm it looked like glass. Niall spoke some words and touched the pond with his walking stick. Nothing happened at first but then images started to appear. I could see a woman lying in a hospital bed, she looked dead. I was going to ask Niall who she was when I realized it was me. I had different hair and I was bigger but it was me. Then the picture changed and I could see my babies. They were in the nursery. They were so beautiful, they looked like Eric. I wanted to hold them so badly. It was a while before I realized I was crying.
"Ok grandfather teach me what I need to know so I can be with my babies" I said.
Niall taught me some self defence and some fae moves. It took me awhile but I soon mastered what I needed to know. Niall taught me how to 'POP' places. He said I had enough fae in me and with a little incantation I was popping everywhere. It took a lot out of me to do that so I should only use it in dire of emergencies. The last thing Niall taught me was summon my inner fae and use it as a weapon. It was a burst of light I could summon that would wound a vamp or any other being enough for me to either kill it or get away.
It had been a few months give or take that I had been gone. My babies were growing up and I was missing it. I was ready to head back.
'Your ready child but your body is not. You'll know when it is time, you'll feel a pull`` Niall explained.
``I feel ready. I want to see my babies`` I sobbed.
``Soon child, soon`` he said.
Since coming to the fae realm my dreams of Eric have stopped. Not once did he come to me and it scared me. No contact was a bad thing. Maybe being in the fae realm distorts the bond somehow, that's it, it has to be.
It was hard to open my eyes the next morning, they seemed glued shut. I started to panic. I tried to move my arms but they felt heavy and unresponsive. I could here this loud noise but could see nothing. I could hear pounding footsteps an d they were getting closer. I tried to scream but there was something in my mouth. I could feel someone near me.
`Calm down Miss. My name is Amanda. I'm the nurse assigned to you. Your in the hospital, you were in a coma. Please try to stay calm. I'm going to untape your eyes. There is that better? Blink once for yes and two for no, ok? Good. Can you feel this? Good. Any pain or discomfort? Good. Ok I'm going to pull the tube out of your throat, on the count of three blow out ok? Good, one, two, three blow`` she instructed and then the tube was out. I tried to talk but no words came out.
``I'll get you some water and then you rest. I'll notify the doctor and he'll be here to see you shortly`` she said and left the room. She came back with water and I sipped a little and then I laid back down. I must have fell asleep for awhile cause when I woke up it was dark. I was startled to find Bill and Judith sitting in the chairs across from my bed.
`Hello, sweetheart. How you feeling?`` Bill asked.
``Fine, babies`` I croaked out.
`You need your rest Sookie`` Bill said.
``Babies`` I said more forcefully.
``Ok Sookie, calm down. The babies aren't here. They were taken to Felipe shortly after they were born. You were in a coma and unable to care for them so he took them. I'm sorry darling. He's had them now for seven years. He's adopted them. Apparently after seven years you can be considered dead. He was going to pull the plug tomorrow. That's why I'm here, I was going to try and stop him`` he said.
`What? Seven years? He has my babies? Eric?`` I was starting to panic again. The nurse came in and gave me a shot. I felt relaxed in seconds.
``Eric, well he's gone. He tried to get the babies telling Felipe they were his. Felipe considered this treason and had Eric exiled. Pam was killed by Victor before that and Eric killed him. Victor was holding Eric captive and sold Fangtasia making Felipe think Eric cut and run. I believe that's why Felipe let Eric live. I have searched for Eric but I haven't found a trace yet` Bill said.
``Eric is the father`` I said and then blackness.
``So it's true?` Bill said.
