Check that out if you have the time. SO GOOD! Anyways here is another one for you. It is a long one! Hope you enjoy!

Chapter 14:

He left to fast I had barely registered the quiet that surrounded me. My eyes opened slowly as I looked around me. He still had all the power here. I knew I was in for some trouble.

The rest of my week had been sorely uneventful after our chat. I thought of him often now hoping he would show up to cause me the trouble I clearly didn't need. But he hadn't returned or even called since.

Sookie had been spending a lot of time with Bill and Tara had moved from her mom's into some lady's house. I was alone mostly that whole time. I had never thought I would crave people around me but I had. I spent time in my garden, I went to work and I finished painting my house and I was left with nothing to do.

I drove to the liquor store early that morning and bought some wine that I figured would aid me in my loneliness. Truly I wished anyone would show up before I decided to start annoying the people around me.

My night had become very boring as I sat at the couch drinking alone when I heard cries from somewhere outside my door. Leaping up I ran to the door flinging it open to see Bill carrying Sookie up the porch.

"What happened?" I asked panicking as I saw the blood and wounds on her back. I could smell something off about it.

"Something attacked us as we left Fangtasia tonight." He said bringing her inside. I cleared my table as he set her on it."You have to save her Oliver. She cannot die!" He said grabbing my shoulders.

"Okay! Okay we just have to step back and figure this out Bill. Did you call anyone? Eric maybe?" I asked as I picked up the phone. I needed help with this one. He shook his head.

"No she asked me to bring her here so I did. I figured the anatomy of a Faerie was different. You must save her!" He said again pacing the kitchen. Okay I just needed to call Fangtasia. Hopefully Eric would know what to do.

"Hello, Fangtasia." Pam drawled through the ear piece.

"PAM! Shit I need to speak to Eric." I said hoping not to have to fight her. "Alright keep your panties on I will get him. Or maybe I shouldn't ask you to keep them on?" She asked.

"PAM! Seriously get Eric NOW!" I yelled. I heard her yelling along with some pretty terrible music.

"Hello?" He asked.

"ERIC! I need you to get to my house right away! Something happened to Sookie." I tried to breath normally but I was having trouble.

"Oh Oliver.. What happened?" He didn't really sound all that worried. More intrigued then anything.

"Something attacked her in the woods outside your bar! She is dying I can feel it." I said quickly.

"Oh alright. I will be there shortly." I heard the click as he hung up. I should have said it was me then maybe he would have rushed.

Tell me everything, I asked Bill as Eric came into the kitchen moments later..

"She said it wasn't human before she passed out. She said it had the body of a man and the head of a bull." He said to me as I leaned over her. I traced my fingers down the wound in her back and lifted them to my nose inhaling.

"Something has tried to poison her. Lucky for her she is part Fae." I said putting the blood from her back into my mouth tasting the substance. Eric and Bill stared at me with worry. I guess they weren't aware Fae could ingest blood to. We hadn't needed to unless our power was severely drained and we had no way to regain it. We even had teeth to do it. But only when we needed to. My teeth came out, Two long pointy ones right at the front. Very different from where vampires teeth were.

"It was definitely something old. She is dying." I said tears falling from my eyes.

"No! She cannot die! You will save her!" Bill hollered at me.

"Bill just calm down.. He is abnormally attached to this human." He said to me smirking.

"Eric shut up! I need to think." I said realizing I probably wouldn't need his help at all. He had just been the first and only thing I thought I needed to cope with this.

"Well, we don't have a lot of choices. She's been poisoned. You ever heard of Komodo dragons? Their mouths are teaming with bacteria. After one has bitten you it will track you for hours, days just waiting for the toxins to slowly eat away at your nervous system. 'Til you're good and helpless. Then it will devour you alive." This reminded me of that. I knew the poison was meant to last a while. Her eyes slowly opened.

"I was... scratched by a dragon?" I smiled back. "No Sook. but this poison is similar but way more efficient. I don't think I've seen it before but it's hard to tell without further testing and we don't have that kind of time." I said to her stroking her hair. I scraped the poison from her back carefully with my hands wiping it away on a rag. "You can give her blood now. Her body should accept it." I said after I had finished. Bill nodded to me helping Sookie up off the table and into his arms. Eric and I watched him head up the stairs to my guest room closing the door behind him.

"So...Why Am I here?" He asked noticing that there really wasn't anything for him to help with.

"No idea honestly. I guess since I have you back I figured I could use you as support." I sighed throwing the towel into the hamper behind me.

"I see. Can't be without me huh?" He smirked. He was pretty full of it lately.

"If that makes you feel better, sure." I was so tried, fighting with him wasn't going to help that. The wine had gone to my head and the Poison had given me a bit of a buzz. I had been ready for bed when they showed up, realizing all I wore were very short pj shorts and a sports bra. Goddammit! Why did I put myself in these spots.

"So why were you meeting with them tonight?" I asked curiously, leaning against the table.

"I need them to accompany me somewhere for a while." He said eying my chest hungrily. "I was going to ask you as well but then you called me all on your own. Good timing really." He said as his eyes trailed down to my shorts. They really didn't leave much to the imagination. Not that he needed it, he had seen me naked before.

"Eyes up here." I pointed my my face.

"Right. I wish for your assistance with something very important in Dallas." He said looking towards the stairs, dropping his voice to a whisper as he came closer, "My maker has gone missing and I need help." He said entwining his fingers in my hair. I still held my scent back. It seemed he actually had to touch my skin for it to become a problem.

"Okay." I said softly looking up at him.

"Just okay? You aren't going to ask me for anything?" He asked still twirling his fingers around a small braid he had found amongst the blonde hairs.

"You are my brother Eric. I would do anything for you." I said, I knew a maker was important to any vampire. If this person meant something to Eric then he did to me as well. "When do we leave?" I asked wanting to reach up and touch his chest.

But I didn't, "Tomorrow night. I have to get back and make preparations." I nodded as he pulled back. "I will come for you then Olive." He reached down to my cheek and lightly ran the tips of his fingers along my jaw. My scent slipped and his teeth shot out. I stepped back carefully trying not to provoke him. He looked up to my eyes, "I wouldn't hurt you Oliver. You do smell really good though." I nodded. Then he was gone and I was left standing in my kitchen surrounded by Sookie's blood. It would be a long night of cleaning.

The next night came quickly as I pulled my bag down the stairs to leave with Eric. We were going to hop a jet to Dallas and figure this stuff out. I was a little nervous staying in a hotel filled with vampires but I knew he would be there if I needed so I relaxed a bit.

"Alright I am ready, lets go find this maker." I said stomping out the door towards his car. We hopped a jet together waiting to arrive. "So what's the plan?" I asked him as I sat next to him.

"There isn't really a plan. I think it might be related to that stupid fellowship of the sun church. We will start there." He said looking towards me from his seat.

"Okay." I said closing my eyes to nap while we waited to get there. When I awoke I was in a bed in what I figured was the hotel we were staying at. How did I get here? I didn't remember leaving the plane.

"Your up!" I heard Sookie instantly.

"Yes I am. How did I get here?" I asked her rubbing my eyes as I climbed off the king size bed.

"Eric brought you up. You were right out of it." She said smiling. She clearly thought this was amusing.

"He did?" How had he not eaten me? What the hell?

"Yep. They are meeting the others down stairs. I thought I would come up here and get you." I nodded pulling out my bag. I slipped out of my jeans and t-shirt and into a pencil skirt and blouse. Today I would look sophisticated. Sookie also wore a nice dress although her style was the opposite of mine. I slid on my black heels and tied my hair back.

"Alright well let's get this over with." She nodded taking my hand and walking us down the halls of the hotel.

I heard them before I saw them, fighting. "You should have told me Eric hired fuckin' humans, Isabel." The Texan man spat at a lady next to him, I was guessing that was Isobel.

"I couldn't tell you, Stan. You've been off on your own for days." She replied calmly. They saw us come in I was sure of it. I sat on the couches next to Eric and Isobel.

"Are you certain Godric was abducted by the Fellowship of the Sun?" Eric asked moving a bit closer to me.

"Yes! They're the only ones with the organization and man-power." Stan replied pacing the room. He clearly cared deeply for this Godric person as well.

"If they've got him, I'll hear it. That's my job." I said speaking to the man called Stan. He just stared at me.

"There's no reason to wait. We need to take these fanatics down. Full out attack. Exterminate them like the vermin they are." He decided to ignore me and started yelling at Isobel again.

"I doubt the king of Texas would approve of the destruction of our international political agenda." Bill spoke up moving Sookie away from Stan and to his other side. He was right vampires would be accused of this and the whole 'coming out of the coffin' thing would be ruined. There had been enough hatred towards their kind already. We really shouldn't make that worse.

"Don't use Godric to make your own little power play." Isobel raised her voice this time.

"You're completely incompetent!" He was in her face in a second screaming at her. God! Did vampires have to be so hot headed all the damn time?

"What's happened to Godric that he surrounds himself with clowns?" Eric almost yelled standing to defend Isobel.

"We invited you as a courtesy. This is not you territory. You have no voice here." Stan said stepping away from her and towards Eric. "Why don't you run back on down to Louisiana. We don't need you or your puppets." He continued to push Eric.

"I'm not going anywhere." He said as I stood up next to him. I was not puppet.

"We are nobody's puppet!" Sookie said.

"Look this really doesn't have to be a huge emotional vampire fight okay? I have an idea." I said looking to Stan. "Sookie and I will go in tomorrow morning, infiltrate that stupid church. We will find Godric and call you." I said hoping they would hear reason.

"I agree with Oliver." Sookie said.

"No I will not have you risk your life." Eric said reaching for my arm. I stepped away quickly, if I lost control in a room filled with vampires I was screwed.

"It is fine Eric. We will be fine okay? Let me do this. Let us do this." I said hoping he wouldn't chase me. "Besides at least this way we can be discreet about it." Sookie said trying to reassure Bill who looked like he was about to flip his lid.

"Sookie and I did not agree to this Eric. I will not have her risk everything for some vampire we don't even know." Bill wasn't agreeing to my plan dammit!

"Bill I assure you Sookie will be fine." I said giving him a reassuring pat on the shoulder. "We can do this and be out by tomorrow night okay? No big deal." This was the only way.

"You're playin' with her life." Bill said eying me with worry. I knew I was but I had faith in us. "All this for a colleague. For the sheriff of Area 9, why?" He needed a reason, I got that. But it was not my place to tell him.

"Just trust that it matters okay?" I said. If it mattered to Eric then it did to me. He sighed and nodded. I was going to do this. We would be okay.

I went back to the room with Sookie and Bill following behind me. I could hear them arguing but I knew Sookie was hard headed and was in on my plan. I smiled to myself as I said goodnight to them and left to my room.

"I will meet you in the lobby in the morning. We got this yeah?" I asked hoping he hadn't changed her mind.

She nodded, "Yes see you then. Sleep well Oliver." She said kissing my cheek and leaving with Bill.

I climbed into the shower and let the heat flow over my tired skin. It had been a long day and I was nervous about tomorrow.

If Sookie and I got in alright I figured we could listen in and find Godric quickly, leaving us a whole night to get home.

As I wrapped a towel around myself I walked to the mirror looking at my reflection. I pulled a hair brush through my mangy hair and added a few braids as usual before my eyes scanned my thigh were my tattoo sat. I had been in Sweden a few years back and decided to get one. It was something I had felt really passionate about at the time choosing something that reminded me of home. The water tattoo went up my inner thigh and around until it hit my waist under my breasts. I loved it. I pulled on my short shorts and sports bra before leaving the bathroom to head for my bed.

I had noticed Eric's bags in my room earlier so I figured he would be sharing with me. I knew he would insist we share the bed so I made sure to grab a spare blanket from the closet for myself before climbing in. It seemed as I slept Eric could touch me so as long as I was careful I should be okay. At least I hoped that I would be okay.

I slept a few hours before opening my eyes and finding Eric laying next to me, arms wrapped around my middle. It had been so long since I had woken up with him I had forgotten the feeling of warmth it gave me.

Looking at the clock I knew it was time to get ready and meet up with Sookie downstairs. I slid out from his grip and threw on some clothes. Pulling the zipper up on my jacket I grabbed my bag and closed the door quietly so as not to wake him. I really wasn't sure if it was even a possibility to wake a sleeping vampire but I figured I shouldn't assume you couldn't.

"Hey Sookie. Ready to head out?" I asked her as I met her at the bar.

She nodded, "Isobel's boyfriend is coming to. I thought he could say we were engaged or something. Maybe we want to see the church for a wedding venue?" She asked me. That was a killer idea!

"Yeah alright. Hey I'm Oliver." I shook his hand.

"Hugo. Nice to meet you." I nodded again and lead them to Eric's car out front. It took us there in no time at all.

"Alright stick to the plan. Do not stray. Stick together!" I said. I honestly didn't want to loose them in this place, it was huge.

"Let me do the talking." I said as we walked up to a pretty blonde lady.

"Hi there! Holly Simpson." I said shaking her hand, "I cannot believe we are meeting you in person Mrs. Newlin! What an honor."

She smiled at us and looked over our faces, "Well thank you Holly! So nice to meet you as well. Who are your friends?" She asked.

"These two are getting married soon, I am the maid of honor of course! We were wondering if you could give us a peak around in case we want to choose this as their venue?" I asked. I hope she fell for it.

"Aren't you a cool breeze on a hot day?" She said smiling widely. "Come on in and have a look." I exhaled slowly so she wouldn't see my nervousness.

We followed her inside the church, "Why don't we just see if Steve is available? I am sure he would just love to meet you all." She said leading us down a hallways past a large chapel.

"For real? Reverend Newlin himself? That would be just super!" Sookie squealed. I had to give it to her, she was certainly convincing.

We met Steven Newlin and talked with him a while before the showed us around. They handed us back to his wife at that point. I guess the great Reverend Newlin was a busy man.

She lead us to the chapel, "Sometimes when we open these doors so much love comes flowing out that it'll knock you down." She said pushing the doors open.

"We will be sure to brace ourselves!" Sookie said to her grinning from ear to ear. The room was so full of sunlight I could barley see anything, "Oh my gosh!" Sookie said looking around the chapel with Hugo.

"I know! I just love it in here!" Sarah said pushing us further inside. "The way it glows like it does. Particularly in the late afternoon. Takes my breath away." Hugo looked at Sookie, "This is it! We are going to marry here!" He said pretending to look into her eyes lovingly. I smiled at the Newlin woman.

"Alright well I guess I should show you the rest then. She ushered us out of the room and down the hallways again. "I really can't think of any other places to show you other then the basement. There is some neat stuff down there!" She said pushing us down the stairs.

"Now I think that is enough don't you guys? We really should be going Mrs. Newlin." I could hear her terrible thoughts clear as day.

'I cannot believe the nerve of those vampires sending in innocent girls undercover. They probably don't even know I am going to lock them up.'

"Now now go on in. Unless you want me to make you?" Her face changed as she stared at us, her eyes glowing with hatred. She shoved Sookie down towards us knocking us all down the stairs. All I heard before passing out was the sound of the door locking behind her. A fog overtook me and I was out.

When I woke I heard Sookie screaming, "Get off me! Get off! Please stop!" She cried out as a large man with a black shirt that said 'GUARD' pulled her dress up. Oh shit what the hell went on while I was out cold?

"Get your hand off her!" I yelled looking at the man. When I went to pull my light on him Hugo grabbed my arms and held them back.

"Ah ah ah little lady. I think we best let them have their moment don't you?" He spat sniffing my neck.

"Hugo what the FUCK!" I screamed trying to break free of his grasp. Without my hands I couldn't use my powers and I was stuck.

"HELP. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!" Sookie yelled. It was braking my heart to hear her. All of a sudden a whoosh went by us as the man on Sookie went flying across the room braking his neck.

"Get off me HUGO!" I yelled kicking my leg back into his balls. He fell to the floor gasping. I grabbed Sookie and held her, "Fuck Sook you okay?" I asked stroking her hair.

The man that came in looked more like a teenager to me, but his tattoos looked much older. "Are you Godric?" Sookie asked looking up at the boy.

"You should not have come." He said looking at me and back to Sookie. He knew why we were hear. I didn't doubt he had heard us long before the attempted rape. I heard another vampire running around the building towards us, "BILL!" Sookie said pushing me away.

"No." Godric said closing his eyes, "I am here my child. Down here." He said. I knew it was Eric then.

Eric appeared and kneeled before Godric. He was so pale and sad looking it broke my heart as it always had many years ago. The life like man I once knew was taken from me.

"Godric." He practically whispered.

"You were a fool sending humans after me." Godric said to Eric calmly.

"I had no other choice, these savages wished to destroy you." He said lifting his head to look at the boy. I had never seen Eric bow to anyone but our family, this was certainly new to me.

"I am aware of what they planned Eric. This one here has betrayed you." Godric pointed to Hugo who still lay on the floor in agony.

"How long has it been since you have fed?" Eric asked his maker.

"I require very little blood anymore." He said, his eyes looked like that of a man ready to say goodbye. Godric was here to die willingly? I couldn't believe it until I had more proof. A loud siren started blaring. We all looked at each other then knowing we had to go, "Save the humans. Kill no one on your way out." Godric told Eric.

"I am not leaving your side until you are -."

Godric cut him off, "Go now. I will take care of myself." And then he was gone leaving us to make our way out with Eric. We wasted no time in doing so.

Eric got us to the main hallways but we were stopped when we heard two guards talking. He looked at Sookie and I, "Wait here I will take care of this." Sookie put her hand out and grabbed Eric.

"He's your maker, isn't he?" She asked. Dumb girl can't realize this is not the time. I looked at him then.

"Don't use words you don't understand." He said.

"You have a lot of love for him." She pushed him.

"Don't use words I don't understand." He said looking to me. I knew then I lost my brother for sure. He may want me but I guessed all the love he had was for Godric now. I pulled Sookie back and glared at him. I knew it wasn't the time but it hurt to hear those words. He turned to me again and whispered, "Trust me." As he turned and talked the two guards down.

We made it past them but couldn't figure a way out without causing damage.

"What now?" Sookie asked.

"Through the Chapel." I suggested. They both agreed as we opened the door quietly. As we made it through we became surrounded by fellowship members. Oh shit how are we going to get out of this? Eric leaped in front of me, "Let us leave! Save yourselves! No one has to die!" Sookie yelled at Newlin.

"The war has begun, you evil whore of Satan. You vampires cast the first stone by killing my family! The lines have been drawn. You're either with us or against us. We are prepared for Armageddon." Newlin spat at us. I couldn't help but smile then, he was a silly little man.

"The vampire you were holding got away. He's a sheriff. He's bound to send for help." Sookie was trying to talk our way out of this.

"I'm not concerned with Godric. Any vampire will do for our grand celebration and we've got one right here." He said looking at Eric. Oh hell no!

"Uh uhh You aren't taking Eric." I said coming out from behind him hands glowing. Steve and his group only smiled at us.

"There will be a holy bonfire at dawn!" He cried. Eric turned to me and half smiled.

"I will be fine Oliivi." I shook my head, this couldn't be happening! I had only just got him back.

They took Eric from me and pulled him to an alter at the front of the room laying him down.

"Let him go! Please I don't want to hurt anyone." I said to pin point who exactly I should shoot first. My whole body was glowing now and they were all staring at me.

"Please Oliivi let me go. Save yourselves." He said trying to get me to stand down.

"No Dammit! I just got you back I am not letting these nut jobs kill you. Please Eric fight them?" I felt a tear run down my cheek.

"I... I offer myself in exchange for Godric's freedom and the girl's as well." He said to the group of people.

"That's noble, but they are just as culpable as you are. these two are traitors to their race. The human race. They hardly deserve mercy. Maybe we should tie that one to you so you could meet the sun together." He said pointing at me. I could see the pain in Eric's face increase. As Newlin went for me Bill and the rest of the vampires from the hotel burst in.

"BILL!" Sookie yelled throwing her arms around him.

"One more step, vampire and the girl dies." Newlin said going for me. As he grabbed me his arm lit on fire, "AHH JESUS FUCK! WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?" He cried out moving away from me and holding the sizzling spot.

"Steve Newlin! You have pushed us too far. You expect us to sit on our thumbs while you round up your men to come lynch us? We'll kill you first. Same way we did your father." Stan said stepping forward.

"Murderer!" He was still crying from his arm. I kept my eyes on Eric behind me hoping at the right second I could get him out of the silver and on his feet.

"Destroy all of them!" Stan cried about to rush the Reverend.

"Enough! You came for me, I assume. Underlings?" Godric appeared on a ledge before us. Good timing.

"Yes sheriff." Stand said standing down.

"These people have not harmed me. You see we can coexist. Mr. Newlin, I do not wish to create blood shed when none is called for. Help me set an example. If we leave you in peace, will you do the same?" He asked the still crying man next to me.

"I will not negotiate with subhumans! Kill me. Do it. Jesus will protect me." He said to Godric.

"I am actually older than your Jesus. I wish I could have known him, but I missed it. Good people, who of you is willing to die for this man's madness?" He asked the congregation. He was met with silence as his followers slowly backed away from him. "That's what I thought. Stand down, everyone. People, go home. It's over now." He said. I didn't flinch as I turned to Eric and started ripping the silver from his skin. I didn't even think about not touching him I just acted. As soon as I pulled the chains off he had grabbed Newlin by the throat roughly.

"No! Eric Godric said not to harm him!" Sookie cried out. I could care less what Eric did to the man. Eric let the man down as he turned for me.

"Are you alright?" He asked putting his hand on the back of my head. I nodded.

"I am now." I smiled, I realized then that he had touched me with no issue. Maybe it was just that there was a lot more serious things happening around us. At that we left the church for the hotel. I could really use a bath I thought to myself. I was glad it was over.
