Thanks to all my readers who reviewed! I love getting reviews even if they only say god job or keep it up! I was also wondering if when this story ends would you all like me to write another past and present Eric fan fic? Let me know. I have been asked a few times for others so I just thought I would test the waters once again. Would you like a sequel to this one? Ideas? Let me know!

Here is another one. Read. Review. Follow!

ff13: Thank you so much for your continued support. I am so glad you are still with me. This is a story that I think about a lot. I am still on the fence about where to take it but with readers like you it makes it easier. I am sorry there has been so much time between chapters but I am always thinking about the next step before I write it all down. I am confident that I will be updating this story more often now that I have some new ideas and I hope you enjoy them.

KMSkar88: Thank you! I hope this next one is enjoyable for you! :)


Chapter 29

'Hold on Tara, we are gonna get outta here.' I could hear Sookie sending her thoughts to Tara who must be in a room nearby. At this point nothing was surprising anymore.

'Oliver? Be ready!' She told me.

'I told you, I am not going anywhere. You two go.' I sighed, laying back on the bed I had been given. At least it was super comfortable.

'If you stay here you will die. We aren't leavin you.' She persisted.

'Then I die. This is my chance after a thousand years. I am not giving it up.' And I meant it. Death never scared me. The dying part was easy. If I was lucky I would get to kill Russell before that.

The only part of death that frightened me was the thought that my family would go unavenged. That Eric would live on, lonely and sad as he had been for almost a thousand years.

I lay there looking up at the ceiling covered in expensive molding and the whitest paint I had ever seen and I closed my mind off to the two panicked girls in the rooms around me, as I tried to think only of my mother and father. Their faces on the last day I had seen them. The fight Eric had with them. The fight we had as usual.

I would give anything for those days to be returned to me. To change everything.

The door opened from across the room as I saw Eric slip in. I lay there still in a state of shock and wonder. What were we going to do?

I felt the bed dip as he lay next to me on his side, not moving to close. His hand came up and moved a loose strand of my hair from my face.

"You must go Oliivi." He whispered, looking me in the eyes.

"I am not leaving. This isn't all about you." I said, looking away from him.

"That is why you must leave. Take care of Godric for me when I am gone.." I could feel his sadness wash over me through our bond as his eyes grew large.

"Nothing changes does it?" I sighed, "The same stubborn Viking I left behind on that beach followed me a thousand years into our future to fight with me about something he has no control over.." Typical Eric.

"Nothing has changed Oliver. I will protect you always. I will protect you and avenge what was taken from us." His hand trailed down my cheek and over my shoulder, touching me softly.

"I am not going anywhere." I shrugged, drawing my eyes back to his. Reaching up I took his hand in mine and held it in front of us. "If this is it for you then I wish to die with you.. "

"I must go. Please go lover, do not stay here with Sookie to die." He said sadly, kissing my forehead lightly before flashing from my room.

'Oliver! Oliver, dammit!' I heard Sookie tapping on the walls I had put up. 'Tara and I are coming to get you.'

The doors burst open, Sookie and Tara falling through them. "Olive!"

"I told you to leave me here. Did I stutter?" I dead panned, not moving from the spot I lay in.

"Oliver please, Russell and Eric have left us here. We can get Bill and go." She said, grabbing my arm and pulling me upright. "I know that he did something to you but staying here won't matter. Just please. We need your help getting Bill."

"Come on bitch, I ain't lettin you stick around here to get drained by those fanged freaks." Tara added, sticking her head out the door to check for guards.

"Where did Russell go with Eric?" I asked her, shooing Sookie away from me. "And how the hell do you know they left together?"

"I heard them go, I happen to have been very sneaky." She shrugged, "Anyways, they headed for the Queen. Something about a marriage proposal."

"Okay. I'll come with you to help Bill. But after that you owe me. I want to go after Russell, whatever it takes." I said, crossing my arms over my chest.

"Yes! Okay that can happen. Lets get outta here already!" She said, pushing the doors open again.


"Sookie they're comin." Tara yelled, panicked. The doors to the shed where Bill was lay open, daylight pouring inside.

"Get off him you stupid obsessed vampire bitch!" Sookie yelled at Lorena. i had to give the girl credit, she was a strong one.

In a flash Lorena was across the room, latching on to Sookie's neck rabidly. Blood spraying everywhere. I knew instantly that the vampires inside if awake would know where we were. Fairy blood, half breed or no was intoxicating.

Without thinking about it I spun away from keeping watch by the doors to grabbing onto the woman from behind. my hand was on fire as I wrapped my hands around her neck and hauled her off Sookie.

Smoke surrounded Lorena and I as I released her, dropping her onto the cement floor.

"What is that? Sizzling?" Tara asked, sniffing the air.

"What are you?" Lorena asked me, wiping her mouth on her dress as her neck bubbled and smoked, "You taste delicious." She said, eying Sookie.

"Fuck you." My Fairy friend snapped, spitting on her. This was a side of Sookie I had never seen before.

"You two are not human, clearly. What are you?" She repeated, in awe. Blood stained her arms, clothes and face and she remained sitting on the floor.

"I'm the bitch that is going judge you." I said to her calmly. Her laughter filled the small shed as she tried to get up off the floor. From behind I saw Bill crawling towards the woman who had turned him, anger and exhaustion written all over his face and body.

"Judge me? Who are you to judge anyone. I am far older and far stronger then you." She seethed.

"Are you?" I said simply as I grabbed her by the ridiculous white frilly collar, "Because last time I checked you weren't that old. Last time I checked you were afraid of Eric Northman and Russell. I assume that is due to age and experience?" I asked her, not waiting for the answer, "I'll tell you a little secret because I don't think you will be sharing it anytime soon.. Eric Northman is my brother." I whispered to her as I moved my hand back to her skin, setting her aflame, her body turning to ash before Bill could reach her.

"OLIVER!" Tara screeched as three wolves ran into the shed, surrounding us.
