I came to all of a sudden. All of my senses crashing over me. Where am I, this isn't my bed? I was hungry, ravenous in fact. A tantalising smell drifted across me, and my fangs ran down. Shit. Yesterdays events came back to me. I was a vampire. A fucking vampire, and it wasn't even my choice. Right first things first. I needed to get home, I had a lot of things to sort out thanks to my new.....state. My stomach was complaining so I went to investigate where the smell had come from. I followed the delicious scent to a small table which held three pint glasses full of warm blood. Ewww. But it smelt so tasty. No Sookie, this is blood. From a just gross to even contemplate it. Unfortunately my vampire instincts and the yearning to feed were winning over my remaining human instincts. I downed all three pints and made a bit of a mess of myself but the hunger pangs had died down. I looked like someone had chucked buckets of blood over me. Hmmm now that.... I stopped that thought right there. That's a sick idea but why did I find it so appealing? Whilst mulling over how perverted Id become in less than 24 hours I spied a note on the table, now spattered with blood. I had to force myself not to lick the piece of paper. Actually where was Eric?
Sookie, I trust you have consumed the blood I prepared and left for you and are feeling calmer tonight. I had some business to attend to but I assure you I have not gone far and will be able to feel you should anything untoward happen. We have many things to discuss. I shall return shortly. I ask that you remain in the house please. Eric.
So Eric was not in situ. How handy, I can run home and try and take care of some of my own business and ring Eric and explain when I get there. Honestly did Eric really think I was just going to stay here like a good little girl? I don't think so. I had a lightening quick shower and made my way to the bedroom I'd abandoned last night. I dressed and was out of the door and running in seconds. I got to the bottom of the road and paused. After a moments indecision I turned right and started off down the side of the road. I was amazed at the pace I could keep and not feel tired at all, at this rate I should be home in less the an hour. Home. I pushed myself even faster. I just wanted and needed to be in familiar surroundings right now.
Before I knew it I was breezing up Hummingbird Lane and even more eager to get home. I jerked to a stop. Home was good but how safe was it, after all its the place where I was attacked. I stilled and tried to use my new acute sense to scope out the area. I sensed everything. Chirping crickets. The wind rustling through trees. Cars driving by. Everything overwhelmed me and I couldn't pick out whether or not anything sounded like a threat. I huffed in frustration and just continued forward. I passed the open ground between the parking area and my house. I was just about to climb the porch steps when I heard someone behind me.
"Excuse me, what is your business here?" I slowly turned to see a medium built man with dark hair and eyes staring at me. He needed a serious haircut. Bill had returned. I couldnt help but feel irritated by his intrusion.
"This is my house and my land, which you are now trespassing on. I think you should tell me what your business is here or just fuck off before I shoot you." He looked slightly taken aback by my hostile response. I mean we weren't exactly bosom buddies before all this but we were amiable enough to one another.
"Sookie? Sookie I don't know whats wrong but there's no need to be like this, why don't we talk about it." I was not in the mood for his shit. I could feel my rage slowly creeping up. This dick was ruing my homecoming. I ignored him and carried on into my house. I felt him enter behind me. Right. That was it. I made my way through the kitchen and grabbed my shotgun from the cupboard I stored it in. Hmmm shitface was still following me but was being very quiet. I considered just turning around and shooting him but then I'd be the one who'd have to clean up all the mess. Backyard it was then. I unlocked the backdoor and went outside, obviously darling Bill followed me.
"You are a-" Oh so he'd worked it out then, it took him long enough. He didn't finished verbalizing his realisation because I shot him. Straight in the stomach. I didn't think it would kill him however watching him suffer was most satisfying, let the stupid fucker suffer like I did. I knew I was being irrational and unnecessarily cruel but at that moment I didn't care, I was venting some of my rage about my situation and it just so happened Bill was taking the brunt of it. Oh well, life's a bitch.
"Why on earth did you do that Sookie?" Urgh so Bill was recovering.
"I warned you Bill. You knew the consequences of not leaving. Now leave."
" I don't think I should leave you when your in this state....." That just done it. I launched myself bodily onto him and landed on top of him, all the while growling like a wild animal. I was punching, kicking and scratching anywhere I could reach, while Bill was trying to restrain me. He was having a job, Bill may have been older than me but I was in the midst of a feral rage that did not want to be contained. His arms were busy trying to pin me leaving his face open, I reared back and headbutted him with as much force as I could muster, which was a lot. I heard the most satisfying sound of his nose shattering. His blood spattered me and that just fueled my desire for destruction. A tingling sensation swept through me and distracted me for a split second. Bill, the bastard, took that second to get the gun and whack me upside the head with it. He hit me with such force that fell off of him sideways and was in strange state between oblivion and total lucidness. Just then I felt a wave of anger washed over my so strongly that my only desire was to get up and mutilate Bill. Unfortunately I couldn't move. I could feel blood slowly making a trail down the side of my face and I could also feel the wound slowly repairing itself, which was one of the strangest feelings Iv ever experienced, but I couldn't move an inch.
So there I am completely incapacited, laying on the ground and waiting to see just how pissed Bill was when I heard a growl emenating from the darkness. The tingling feeling was getting stronger by the second. Oooooh. Then it clicked. The weird feeling was Eric.
EPOV
Why couldn't she just do as I said and stay put? But no, Sookie had to fucking run off somewhere and the next thing I know all I can feel from her is a moment of smugness and berserk anger. What the fuck was she doing?
I didn't take me long to work out she'd gone home and I flew faster as I felt her rage grow more wild. I touched down on the edge of her woods and was flooded with a blinding pain. I heard a noise coming from the back of the house and rushed through the woods to around the back of her house. An animalistic growl tore from my chest at the scene before me. Compton was sitting on the ground looking shocked and was recovering from a severe beating by the looks of his face and Sookie was laying a few feet away from him. She had a nasty wound on the side of her head and appeared to be unconscious. What had he done to her?
"COMPTON YOU PIECE OF DOG SHIT WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO SOOKIE, MY CHILD, HOW FUCKING DARE YOU TOUCH HER!!!" I got swept up in a tidal wave of rage but I tried to control it, in order to check on my child. I walked pass Compton and made sure to forcefully kick him in the spine. I smiled when he groaned. I crouched down and began to assess Sookie. Apart from the head wound I couldn't find any other damage on her. But the wound was taking its time to heal and it worried me slightly. I began to lick her face clean and noticed some of the blood was not her own. I'd question her later. Sookie regained full conciseness and instantly sprung in Comptons direction. I snagged her around the waist and held her firm.
"ERIC! Let me go, I'm gonna kill that fucker. Bashing a lady over the head with a gun! I'm gona rip his fucking head off!!!" Awww so my child was experiencing the joys of a newborn's rage. I laughed when I thought about it because Compton had probably only said hello to her and then she turned on him. Yes, it certainly didnt take a lot to set a newborn off.
"Compton leave now! You will account for your actions tonight and I will deal with you however right now you are only exacerbating matters." He obviously had a modicum of sense because he was up and gone in seconds. One down.
"Sookie if I release you are you calm enough to control your impulses to give chase?" I hoped she was because otherwise we were in for a long night. She nodded. I slowly loosened my grip on her. She didn't run after the fool. Luckily.
"What happend here then? And I want the truth." She explained to me about Bill showing up and demanding to know why she was here and then how he realised she was now vampire. She went on to see how he 'irritated the fuck out of her' so she shot him and then proceeded to beat the shit out of him.
"So that explains the other blood on your face."
"Ya I kind of headbutted Bill and his nose sort of exploded and blood got everywhere....." Sookie seemed a lot calmer now the rage had cleared. I couldn't believe she headbutted someone, this delicate little southern belle. I couldnt help the burst of laughter that escaped through my lips.
"What? Whats so funny? Because really I dont find the idea of headbutting Bill amusing!" I could feel her anger rising again.
"Oh but it is Sookie, the whole idea of you beating that maggot up is one of the funniest things Iv ever heard of. What a shame we couldn't have got it on camera." I was still laughing as she reached for a flower pot and threw it at me. I caught it with ease and set it down gently. I looked at Sookie steadily.
"I wouldnt if I were you. You may have got the bbetter of Compton but you will never best me Sookie so don't even try it." Her anger went up a notch and I knew she wanted to attack me. As if in slow motion I saw her gather herself to spring at me. She got halfway before I grabbed her by the throat and had her pinned to the floor. Fangs extended she snarled up at me, personally I thought the fangs were very becoming on her and she looked rather adorable. Concentrate Eric, looking cute will not keep her alive. She stilled and I smiled at her.
"Sookie you have so much to learn and the learning curve starts tonight. Rule number one, never disobey your maker. You broke that rule Sookie and guess what?" She stared up at me in stony silence. "If you break the rules you will be punished!"
So Sookie's first encounter with Bill went well didnt' it :P You know what to do :)
