Chapter 8
Gabe and Steve had left them basement, leaving them alone
"Cailen are you alright?" Sookie asked Cailen who was still looking a little groggy. Cailen groaned and nodded her head,
"yeah, I'll be fine in a minute"
"What was that about! I'd love to see the basement! Are you insane?" Hugo yelled from the other side of the room. He was breaking out in sweat looking more nervous by the second.
"He's down here, I know it" Cailen shrugged
"well we ain't gonna do much good locked up like this Cailen" Sookie whined, she didn't look too worried though.
"Bill and Isabelle are gonna feel something is wrong, they could be here any second" she said hopefully Cailen nodded not wanting to crash her hopes but she had a bad feeling about this.
"Godric?" she yelled as she held on to the bars for support, she was feeling much better already, she'd be healed completely quite soon. No response. She yelled out for him again but gave up when there was no response but complete silence.
"You've got to be joking me" Eric said bored as he stood next to Isabelle looking over the church of the fellowship of the sun.
"This is the fellowship of the sun?" he did not look impressed
"this is their army? Scared little boys with bibles and crossbows"
"don't underestimate them" Isabelle chided him
"support for their movement is growing, their leadership camps are overflowing with self-righteous extremists, all willing and ready to die for their cause" Eric grumbled
"that can be arranged quite easily" he murmured
"Not until we're sure the fellowship has Godric"
"What about your boy, Hugo, and Sookie and Cailen they've been in there too long" though there was no trace of worry in his voice
"There is no sign of alarm" Isabelle responded
"and if Hugo were in serious danger, I would know it" she said sounding very certain of herself
"I felt something earlier, but it passed, he's okay now"
"Goodmorning!" Steve came walking in cheerfully, waking up the trio in the basement.
"refreshments?" he asked "how did you all sleep?"
"They are coming for us you know" Sookie said bravely
"yeah well that's what I thought" Steve replied with a stupid grin on his face , Cailen rolled her eyes and stood up, she felt much better than the night before, she just hoped Steve wouldn't noticed her head healed so fast.
"I figured a pretty girl like you would have a vamp running off to her rescue. Actually we were kind of hoping for it weren't we Gabe?" he asked Gabe who was standing next to him
"yes sir, bring it on" he said arrogantly
"we're ready for them" Steve said "we've been ready for them for a long time"
"you're gonna get yourself killed" Sookie said condescendingly "and that's not a threat… That's a fact" she said seriously.
"let's quite the chitchat" Cailen said bored "just give us what we want back and no one will have to get hurt" Steve laughed as did Gabe, Sookie and Hugo merely stared at her in shock.
"oh they've gotten you all twisted up haven't they, with their glamouring and their empty promises and their evil blood" Steve said as if talking to a child
"You're the ones who are twisted! You call yourself Christians?" she asked shaking her head
"Jesus would be ashamed of you" Steve laughed at Sookie as he took a sip from his bottle of water
"well we'll just have to agree to disagree on that one, now" Steve said as he took a chair and sat himself in front of the bars
"things got a little out of hand last night, and I apologize for that. I am not the monster the vampire loving media makes me out to be.
"yeah right" Sookie and Cailen mumbled at the same time
"all I want from you is a couple of answers" steve continued as if they hadn't said anything
"then I'd be happy to feed you a nice hot breakfast and send you on your way"
"what do you wanna know" Hugo asked, Sookie and Cailen both turned to face him and hissed at him to shut up.
"Sookie we need to get out of here just tell them what they wanna know" he said with not a hint of fear of the two man at the other side of the bars.
"Her name is Sookie Stackhouse, my name is Hugo Ayers and that is Cailen… something" he said swiftly as Sookie continued to try and stop him. Cailen though noticed Steve changed his focus to Sookie for some reason.
"Sookie Stackhouse" Steve whispered as he looked up at Gabe "from Bon Temps?" he asked Sookie
"How do you know where I'm from?" she asked surprised with a hint of anger
"you're Jason Stackhouse's sister" he said more to himself than to anyone else "am I right?"
"You know Jason?" Sookie asked completely confused now "he's got nothing to do with this"
"Common Gabe" Steve said without even looking at them again
"How do you know my brother?" Sookie yelled after them but they just left, leaving the two angry woman alone with Hugo, who just ratted them out.
"Nice work" Sookie snarled at him
"hey, we've been sitting here waiting all night for your boyfriend to show up, you can go and play a damsel in distress all you want but one way or another I'm going to get us out of here" he said determinately
"Do us all a favor Hugo" Cailen said "just shut the fuck up, you've said more than enough"
Sookie sat in front of the bars just staring into space. Cailen decided to just sit down and wait it out, there was no point in freaking out, they had to have a plan for them so at some point they were going to have to let them out of there or at least open the door, which would be the best time to strike. So waiting it out was really the only thing to do.
-
Cailen awoke suddenly just realizing she had fallen asleep when she saw Hugo yelling that he needed a bathroom when Sookie tried to give him a bottle telling him we'd turn around when he yelled,
"I don't need that! I need to get the hell out of here" he was frantically pulling on the door now
"Hugo this is not helping!" Cailen yelled angrily
"just sit down and try to relax" Sookie said as she took his hand she cramped up staring at his face in shock.
"Sookie, what was that, did you see or hear something?" Cailen asked as she got up and walked over to Sookie quickly. Sookie nodded and took a step away from Hugo.
"you" she said scornfully "you're the traitor" Cailen then turned to Hugo quickly clasping her hand around his neck and pushing him against the door
"you're the rat" she hissed at his terrified face "what did you tell them?" He never got a chance to answer though as Cailen Hugo on the floor beside her. She thought she heard something in the back of the basement. Sookie was now talking to Hugo, Cailen figured she could handle him as she walked towards the back of their 'cell' peering in the darkness that lay behind it still she couldn't see anything and she hadn't heard anything anymore either. Cailen only heard bits and pieces of Sookie's and Hugo's conversation.
"… face it Hugo, you ain't nothing but a fangbanging traitor to them" Sookie said viciously, she had a point though Cailen thought. Hugo now started yelling for Gabe to let him out, that we knew everything already. Nobody came for him though.
It wasn't till a couple hours later that Gabe came busting in.
"Gabe" Hugo sighed relieved "what happened to your face?" he asked surprised when Gabe came closer and he got a good look at his bruised face.
"Listen" Hugo continued without waiting for an answer "she knows everything, which never would have happened I've you hadn't kept me locked in here with a god damn mind reader" he said pointing at Sookie.
"I hope the reverend knows I will need protection now" he said to Gabe angrily ignoring Sookie's and Cailen's dirty looks when Gabe punched him in the face,
"You want protection you fangbanging piece of shit" he kicked Hugo in the stomach when he was down, the fact that he enjoyed doing this to Hugo was clearly readable on his face.
"How is that for protection huh, here's some more protection for you" Gabe said angrily, he was definitely venting his anger on Hugo as he kept punching him in the face. Cailen made no move to help Hugo, he ratted them out, he deserved it. She wouldn't let Gabe kill him off course but a few punches he could handle right? Sookie though couldn't stand it any longer and flung herself at Gabe who then threw her at the wall. Cailen growled and felt herself getting angry, she hated that part about being half vampire, it was as if anger was even more difficult to control because of it. Sookie was a good girl she didn't deserve this. Gabe was now standing over Sookie trying to force himself on her. Cailen ran over to him and punched him in the face trying to get him off Sookie.
"YOU BITCH" Gabe yelled angrily holding his jaw "you'll pay for this" he hissed viciously, Sookie was still moaning in pain besides Cailen distracting her. Cailen never saw the stake Gabe took from underneath his jeans, he had hidden them in his shoes before he had come down. Cailen hadn't even looked at Sookie for more than a few seconds when she felt something hard penetrating her stomach, she looked down and gasped as she saw a stake sticking out from her stomach. Cailen fell to her knees closing her eyes but not before she saw Godric holding Gabe and snapping his neck. She tried not to cry and slowly opened her eyes, Godric was still standing in the same place looking at her. A mix of anger, sadness and guilt in his eyes.
"you should not have come" he said disappointment clear in his voice, Cailen merely rolled her eyes as Sookie was buttoning her dress up again.
"You didn't think you'd get out of our deal that easily did you" Cailen managed to choke out as she smiled at him. Godric shook his head and kneeled down besides her.
"I had hoped for it though" he whispered in her ear earnestly, she smiled at him sadly, knowing the underlying meaning of his words. Though she wasn't smiling for long as she started coughing she noticed there was blood in her hands. \
"you need to drink my blood Cailen" he said seriously already exposing his fangs
"N-no" she whispered "I can't Godric" she looked at him pleadingly before all three of their heads turned towards the staircase, they all heard the noises. Godric closed his eyes.
"Bill" Sookie said standing up looking hopeful at the stairs.
"No, I'm here my child, down here" Godric said no later than the words had left his mouth did Eric come walking through the door.
"Godric" he said, his voice holding more respect than Cailen had ever thought possible, as he knelt down in front of him. At this point Cailen started losing feeling in her fingers and she started coughing again. The two vampires immediately responded to the smell of blood.
"I knew that big mouth of yours would get you staked someday" Eric said drily as he looked at Cailen, he was obviously still mad about what she said earlier.
"Don't be so stubborn Cailen, just drink his blood" Sookie tried to encourage her.
"I can't" she hissed angrily and in pain "it's too strong Godric, please don't make me drink it" she was crying now,
"I can't control it, you've seen it!" she tried reasoning with him now
"Cailen.." he said as he threateningly moved closer to her
"I won't Godric, I can't, just please.." Godric was kneeling besides her now
"I almost killed you that time" Cailen whispered so quietly Eric had to strain to hear it
"Okay, it's okay" he whispered soothingly, "Eric, give her your blood" he commanded his child causing Cailen's head to snap up at him
"what, no!" she argued, Eric was already kneeling on her other side ready to bite his wrist
"I'm twice his age Cailen, his blood won't be nearly as strong as mine, you need it, please Cailen. For me?" he nudged her smiling at him. Cailen closed her eyes in defeat but started feeling much better as soon as Eric's wrist was at her mouth. She only had a mouthful or so but it was more than enough, she felt invigorated. She pushed Eric away and got up angrily, looking down she noticed the stake was still in her stomach.
"Pull it out" she hissed at Godric, she hated it when he made her do something she didn't want to, and the thing she hated the most was drinking vampire blood. Vampire blood almost felt like OD'ing to her, like it was too much power for her body to handle, it felt like she would explode if she didn't use her powers. The vampire blood also made her vampiric side more strongly present, she would be easily tired during the day, she would hunger for blood more. She hated that side of her. She barely noticed Godric pulling the stake out she healed so quickly. Godric then turned back to Eric.
"you were foolish to send humans after me" Eric looked at him in surprise
"I had no other choice, these savages, they seek to destroy you" he whispered almost in pain
"I am aware of what they have planned for me" was all Godric had to say
"this one betrayed you" he said pointing to Hugo
"yeah" Sookie said still a bit miffed about Bill not being there "he's with the fellowship, they set a trap for us" Eric didn't regard her at all
"How long has it been since you've fed" Eric asked Godric
"I require very little blood anymore" he answered honestly when an alarm started to go off.
"Save the girls Eric" Godric said looking at the staircase
"I am not leaving your side until…"
"I can take care of myself" Godric hissed angrily
"Common we have to go!" Sookie said nervously
"and spill no blood on your way out" Godric said as they made their way to the stairs, Cailen knew better than to argue with Godric now. She'd fight with him later.
