I don't own anything I am just taking the characters for a walk.

A/N I have always thought that Allen Ball made a terrible mistake killing off Godric. This is what I think should have happened. I am going to try and follow the seasons as close as possible even with the changes I have made. Thanks for all the reviews and story follows it's super flattering- keep em coming : )

Chapter 15

I came to awareness slowly this night having not fed and after expending much energy during my search and subsequent interrogation of the Were. I had left the city and found a deserted area and dug my grave shortly before the sun rose. As I waited I wondered if I was closer this night knowing where she was or if knowing and not being able to just go in and get her was worse than not knowing anything.

I continued the debate until I moved on to thoughts about Eric and the Weres that killed his human family shortly before I turned him. It was his grief that resulted in his death; he recklessly attacked the neighbouring tribes thinking them responsible for his family's murder. We spent centuries tracking them all over Europe; their last known location was Germany during the Second World War. We got close that time, but again Eric's emotions got the better of him and we had to put down the lead before we got anything out of her.

I dug myself out as the sun set. I shook as much dirt off as possible and took out my phone looking for the text from Eric. I found the address and used the map function to find it and took to the sky again. I went to the compound first to check on Sookie. I wanted to see how she was doing before I wasted anymore time again tonight. I felt for her and found that she was feeling much the same as last night only her disgust was stronger and she seemed annoyed by something her fear was much more subdued. I stayed for a few moments before taking to the sky once again.

After last night I knew the city fairly well and it didn't take me long to find the apartment building. I knocked on the door the hallway smelt of the Were and Eric. I knew they were here already. The door opened and Alcide invited me inside. He had healed since I saw him last. Eric was sitting at the dining room table waiting. I took a seat and waited to see if they had new news.

Alcide spoke, "I've been to Lou Pines already since we got here and a few of the guys from the Fuck you crew were there not the same ones though, same leathers and tattoos. The plan is to return to the bar and lure one of the crew out and find out what is going on."

"At some point we'll need to walk into his compound ourselves though." Eric pointed out.

"I think it would be best if I went in alone."

"It is important that no one knows of my involvement I have to be able to come back here for business." Alcide stated as I rose from my seat ending the discussion.

"Hopefully this next one knows more than the last." I said ominously in hopes of reminding him of his place. "I will meet you there, I'm sure you'll have no trouble luring them out into the parking lot behind the bar. Right?" He nodded and I left as quickly as I arrived.

I was perched on the roof minutes later waiting, listening, watching the Weres come and go from Lou Pines. I recognized Alcide's truck pull up and watched him get out and go around and into the bar. Eric landed behind me moments later.

"And now we wait." I said quietly. Wait we did, I tracked him into the bar and listened as he ordered a beer and talked to a few people. It seemed like hours went by when a couple entered the bar followed by a foursome from another vehicle. Almost as soon as they reached the inside the entire bar erupted in growls and shouts of excitement. I couldn't follow any single person any longer.

They carried on like that for some time several arguments breaking out here or there. I thought I heard Alcide arguing with someone but it wasn't long or loud enough to follow. He had been inside for two hours when a limo pulled up out back and we watched as a tall male Vampire with dark hair got out. I could tell from here that he was older than I by at least a thousand years. The door was open long enough that we could see that there were others inside. He went in alone and shortly after he entered the bar quieted and I could hear him speak. He made a quick speech which I was glad was out of range for Eric and left the bar in the limo.

"I believe Bill may have been in the limo."

"If so I'm not sure if he is indeed here against his will."

The bar had been quiet since the vampire left but all of a sudden after one howl hit the air dozens followed and the air felt different.

"Their changing, I can feel it."

We stood on the roof for another hour as the Weres celebrated and fought. Finally a large Were burst out the back door followed closely by two more, one almost as large and one smaller. They made a beeline for Alcide's truck and as soon as he reached it Alcide changed back to his human form. The two wolves circled snapping at him.

Alcide looked at one then the other "Cooter I don't care that you are the leader of the fuck you crew, I just don't want Debbie involved."

"Eric block the door I don't want anyone else to interfere. Make sure to deal with the female." In moments I was right behind the Weres, I lunged and took hold of the male by the scruff of his neck and took to the sky before anyone could blink. The Were stayed in wolf form the entire flight trying to round on me, but I held fast holding him aloft like a scolded puppy.

I took him to the same warehouse and threw him into the ashes of last nights Were.

"Change, I want information." He responded with snarls. "If not you then I will take a member of your pack one by one until I have the answers I seek. Starting with the bitch I left to the others. Change!" His hackles rose and he bared his teeth, I dropped fang and growled back. He changed.

"I'm not saying a fucking thing fanger!" Ah he changed in order to insult me.

"That is exactly what your pack-mate said at first but he talked, they all talk eventually." I told him standing from my crouch.

"Lies, they know what happens to traitors. None of my crew would give up a thing no matter what!" He spat still under the mistaken impression that he had a chance.

"Look around, look closely you were just rolling amongst his remains. He answered my questions and so his death was swift." I watched as he looked about the dark room and floor.

"All I see is ash, this is some kind of trick." I checked the bond with Eric to see where he was. I could feel his anger and frustration but he seemed to be at Alcide's apartment maybe, on the other side of the city for sure. I let my Fae powers erupt while I dropped fang again and stalked closer to the now speechless and cowed Were.

"I won't ask again, I want to know what is going on in the Kings compound. How many: Vampire, Were, Human. Are they loyal or not. And especially I want to know of those who have been brought here from Louisiana."

"What are you?" I could feel the fire rushing to the surface and for the first time in many centuries I burst into flames. I let the fire lick at me for a few moments relishing the feel before I tamped it down into only a small fireball in the palm of both hands.

"What I am is not what should concern you at this moment, now tell me what I need to know." He took a moment to swallow hard then he started to sing, spilling forth all the information I needed.

"Edgington has fifteen loyal vampires some of whom live in the compound with him. He has a live in boyfriend; Talbot that guy is such a priss. They keep a few boy toys around for meals. I have anywhere from ten to fifteen Weres guarding the compound at all times. There are a couple of Vamps who are new, a woman and then that Vamp we took from Louisiana the other night. Plus the redheaded female Vamp and that sweet, sweet blond girl, man what I would like..."

"If you know what's good for you, you will not finish that sentence." He clammed up and started to shake. "Anything else?"

"He has an investigator, he sent him to Louisiana right after we brought back the females. I don't know anything else I swear." I had the information I needed and I could feel Eric getting closer by the minute. I dropped back into my Vampire aspect and before he realized it I had him by the jugular. His hot Were blood rushed into my system. I drained him not a moment before Eric appeared by my side.

"Master." He kneeled in front of me though careful to keep his distance from the Weres body that I let fall with a thud.

"You should not have come, Childe. What of the other Were?"

"Alcide and the Were bitch were fighting he is upset that she left him and that she is addicted to V. Master she bears the mark; it is him after all these years."

"He has your Queen and my Sookie, you will stay out of this. I cannot risk her life for your vendetta, as your maker I command you. Return to Alcides and wait for me there." I left him kneeling on the concrete floor. I knew my command was harsh but I could not have him involved any further. I flew straight to the compound and landed at the front door and rung the bell.
