Chapter 9

Eric took the lead in trying to get them out and Cailen let him. She had a hard enough time concentrating on her powers, she felt like she was burning on the inside, she knew this would only last for a short while, she just had to ride it out. She didn't know what happened but suddenly Sookie pulled her along and they were walking towards the sanctuary. As they walked inside Cailen noticed the burning sensation was almost gone now and she could finally think more clearly again. They were half way through the room when Eric asked Sookie where the exit was. It was then that Steve Newlin appeared,

"there are several exits actually, for you, the easiest one takes you straight to hell" he said casually, looking smug when the doors behind us opened and his army walked in. Sookie was looking around panicking,

"Let us leave, save yourselves! Nobody has to die" she yelled desperately, soothingly Cailen put her hands on Sookie's shoulder

"The war has begun, you evil whore of Satan" Steve said holding his hands to the sky smiling wickedly

"you vampires cast the first stone by killing my family. The lines have been drawn. You're either with us or against us" he continued his speech

"we are prepared for Armageddon" he said with a twinkle in his eye, he is enjoying this way too much, Cailen thought. She turned her head to look at Eric, he seemed to be planning but didn't take his gaze off Steve.

"The vampire you were holding prisoner got away" Sookie said, "he's a sheriff, he's bound to send for help" she tried to talk him out of his stupid plans. Cailen doubted that was possible though, Steve Newlin even brainwashed himself into believing his lies.

"I'm not concerned with Godric" he said lightly "any vampire will do for our grand celebration" he turned his gaze to Eric who didn't move a muscle, "And we've got one right here" .

Eric stood still for a couple of seconds before turning to me and Sookie, Cailen put her hand on his arm.

"I'll be fine" he said more to Sookie than to Cailen really, Cailen nodded at him,

"I'll get you out Viking no worries" she whispered so soft only he could hear it. She thought she saw him smile just slightly but his smile quickly disappeared as he walked towards Steve.

.

"Brothers and sisters, there will be a holy bonfire at dawn" Steve said laughing, his laughing gave Cailen the creeps, it reminded her of a madman's laugh, of his laugh. She shuddered. Suddenly she felt two pair of hands around her shoulders and she saw Sookie was being held by two men as well. They were taken towards the front as Eric had to lay down on some kind of altar while Steve had tied him down with silver chains. Cailen could've easily fought the two guys holding her off but she didn't want to show her powers to everyone in the room unless necessary off course. Eric was fine for now. Besides, he didn't seem to worried about her when she was staked not even a half hour ago.

"I offer myself, in exchange for Godric's freedom" Eric painfully choked out "and the girls".

"That's noble" Steve said condescendingly "they are just as culpable as you are, they are traitors to their race" he added viciously.

"The human race! They hardly deserve mercy. Maybe I should tie them to you, so you can meet the sun together" he said casually "Those marshmallows should roast nicely". At that point everybody turned around to see what was causing the noise outside, when Bill threw open the doors and yelled for Sookie. So dramatic, was Cailen's first thought.

"Take one step vampire and the girl dies" Steve said pointing his gun at Sookie, Cailen glared at him.

"I don't think you want to do that Steve" Cailen said condescendingly, he raised an eyebrow at her and snorted

"you are in no position to be giving advice you fucking fangbanger" he hissed at her, Cailen had a difficult time trying to decide whether threatening someone was more fun when they are aware of what you can do or when they underestimated you. At least when underestimated you have the element of surprise she thought. Before Steve knew it she kicked the gun out of his hand and caught it midair pointing it straight to his face. She couldn't help but smirk. Slowly she walked around him turning her back to Eric, she motioned for Bill to come take care of Sookie as she slowly backed towards Eric.

"So, would the big bad vampire like some help?" she smirked at him as she started to peel of the silver chains with one hand still pointing the gun at Steve with the other. As soon as Eric got up though he went straight to Steve holding him by his neck pushing him to the ground.

"Eric" Cailen whispered "don't kill him, shed no blood on the way out remember" she knew he wouldn't disobey Godric's order. He respected him too much for that. She was standing beside him now her hand resting on his shoulder. She didn't want this to end in a bloodshed, she had to cool him down.

"Go ahead" Steve said bravely "murder us, murder us before god. We are willing to die" sounds were coming from outside again announcing the arrival of Stan and more of his nest mates supporting his ideas.

"Steve Newlin" he said casually as he walked in with his entourage "you pushed us too far. You expect us to sit on our asses and do nothing while you round up your men to come lynch us?" Eric was still holding Steve who was looking more frightened by the second.

"We will kill you first" Stan continued "same way we did your father".

"Murderer!" Steve screamed angrily

"Destroy them" Stan said menacingly "all of them" before anyone even realized all of the vampires had their fangs extracted and were holding someone ready to bite when Godric appeared.

"Enough" he said causing all the vampires to stop in their tracks.

"You came for me I assume" he spoke mostly to Stan, Cailen was glad to see Eric had let go of Steve and taken a step towards Godric. Looking up at him with so much regard she hadn't thought Eric capable of.

"Underling" he said warningly when he noticed Stan wasn't eager to let the humans in his arms go.

"Yes sheriff" Stan grumbled

"These people have not harmed me. You see, we can co-exist. Mr. Newlin, I do not wish to create bloodshed when none is called for. Help me set an example. If we leave you in peace, will you do the same?" he asked Steve who was still lying on the floor.

"I will not negotiate with sub-humans" he hissed as he struggled to get up on his knees

"Kill me" he said to Eric as he moved towards him "do it. Jesus will protect me" Steve said looking at his people

"I'm actually older than your Jesus. I wish I could've known him, but I missed it" Godric said regretfully as he moved towards Steve and was holding him up by the back of his jacket in the blink of an eye.

"Good people" he spoke loudly "who of you is willing to die for this man's madness?" an awkward silence filled the room as all the fellowship followers were looking at each other, scared and not knowing what to do.

"That's what I thought" Godric said pleased "Stand down everyone. Go home people, it's over now" Stan ruefully let go of his captive and started walking outside with his men. He would never understand Godric.

"Thank god Bill" Cailen heard Sookie whisper as she held him close. Cailen took a look around checking if all the humans and other vampires had left before she could finally relax.

"come on" Godric motioned for Eric and Cailen to follow them after Eric made sure Sookie was alright.

"I'm gonna go to the hotel to change Godric" Cailen said as she walked beside him both not looking at each other.

"Why did you come Cailen?" he asked her curiously

"to make sure you won't do something stupid" she said quietly not looking at him, he turned to look at her though he did not speak.

'Listen Godric, we have a deal whether you like it or not' Cailen said seriously

' I don't care what you said about not wanting to see me, the deal still stands'

'I can't Cailen' Godric stated, Cailen turned to face him, her eyes bore in to his,

'you promised me Godric. Don't forget what I am capable of, don't forget how badly I want it' Cailen threatened, Eric was very much surprised with the tone she was taking with Godric. Before she spoke only kindly of him, she had been looking for him worrying about him, she almost died saving him. There was much more behind the redhead's relation with his maker than he initially though Eric concluded.

Godric and Cailen had stopped moving and Eric decided to keep his distance. Godric had his fangs out, he never responded well to threats. Cailen had closed her eyes, she was so mad at him. She trusted him, she confided in him, she loved him. She was just damaged goods to him though, but she wouldn't let him get out of that promise.

.

'Hello? Who are you?' Cailen asked scared not knowing where she was or what happened. 'My name is Godric. What's yours?' Cailen was looking at a boy who looked to be her own age, about 17 or 18. There was something different about him though, something she couldn't quite put her finger on.
'I'm Cailen, where am I?' She asked curiously, inside she was screaming with joy, she wasn't in the basement, she could smell fresh air. A tear escaped her eye without her even realizing until Godric wiped it away. ' You're in my garden Cailen, mind explaining how you got here?' He asked curiously.

'I don't know' she answered honestly. 'Will you help me?' Cailen asked softly with tears on her face. Godric gazed into the girls beautiful blue eyes, she had long red hair that shimmered beautifully in the moonlight. 'I will, I promise, now how can I help such a beautiful young girl like yourself?' He said sincerely.

'Help me die? Please..' the girl was looking at him hopefully, she wanted to die? He wondered. 'But why?' He asked surprised 'you're so young and beautiful, why would you want to die already?' Cailen looked at him wondering if he'd do it, she had to persuade him though. ' If I have a good reason do you promise me you will help me meet my true death?' She asked baldly, her eyes full of determination Godric looked at her surprised, he was curious to find out what she had to say. 'Okay, I promise' he said.

.

.

''I know that Cailen, don't you threaten me' Godric hissed 'I never should have made that promise in the first place. I told you to leave me alone, I'll make good on that promise on my own time' he said arrogantly. Cailen's anger was getting the better of her as she felt her control slip little by little. She closed her eyes, her breathing got heavier. Her face contorted in pain. Godric could feel the anger coming from her. Godric took a step back looking anxiously. They both seemed to have forgotten Eric was there, who was watching them curiously.

'I have to go' Cailen whispered but found that she couldn't move, her insides felt like they were on fire again as she felt the overdoses of energy flowing through her body. As she raised her arms she felt a gust of wind pass her.

'Cailen? What's going on?' Godric asked worried.

'It burns Godric' she cried as she let the tears run over her face freely and something inside her broke, she was so done with living, her life would never be normal, she was a freak of nature, there would never be peace for her.

' I'm just so tired Godric please, please help me' she sobbed as she broke down she fell down to her knees and her powers immediately dissipated no longer fueled by her anger. Godric immediately moved over and held her close.

'I'm sorry Cailen' he whispered. Cailen was breathing easier now, her heartbeat slowed down again. I can't believe I broke down like that, this is so embarrassing, Cailen thought. 'Listen Godric, I just don't care for this life anymore' she whispered, pain evident in her voice. 'I didn't mean to upset you' he said apologetically softly caressing her cheek.

'You don't upset me Godric, you anger me' she said softly as she took a step back.

"We'll talk later" she said before she vanished into thin air leaving Eric en Godric alone with their thoughts.
