Bill was looking down at me. I sat up and looked over at Sookie who was standing a few feet away. "Stay away from me Bill." She spat at him. "It was all a ploy to save you. Russell's gone, see." I thought for a second. "Where's Eric?" I asked. Pam was crying. "He's out there burning." She said.
I ran out the door and found them lying next to each other, handcuffed. "Eric, where's the key?" I asked. Eric looked up at me. "Leave." He said, but I could see easily that he didn't mean it. Sookie came outside. I checked in Eric's pockets, nothing. "I can't find the key." I said helplessly to Sookie.
Sookie looked over at me. She held out her hand, I took it. Together the light was multiplied. I held my hand at the cuffs, they broke. Then I moved my hand to Russell, he flew against the wall, laughing the whole time. Our powers bound together was so strong. I reached down and pulled Eric by his arm into the bar. When he was in Pam ran to him. "He needs blood, he's to weak to drop fang." She whispered. I ran to the bar and found a small knife, I cut my wrist quickly and ran back to Eric.
I placed my wrist against his lips. His face started to heal quickly. I saw Godric, he told Eric to forgive Russell. When he was healed I pulled my wrist away. When I turned around, Bill and Pam were staring, fangs extended. I moved away from them and wiped my blood on my shirt.
"Go outside and get Russell." Eric said, I knew he would. "Why the hell would you want to do that?" Pam asked him. "Because Godric showed himself to me, he told me to forgive Russell." Bill rolled his eyes at Eric. "Now, Eric please do the right thing and let that little fucker burn." Pam said. "Sook, will you help me?" I asked her, she nodded. Sookie grabbed a silver chain and followed me out the door.
Russell was charred to the extreme. This was very different from Godric's death, Russell was being served agony and pain. That's the way it should be. "Well it's about time." He said, even though he was quite close to death he was still a small arrogant asshole. Sookie wrapped the chain around his neck and started to drag him inside. I stood there for a second watching the sun glitter off the pavement.
When I walked back in Eric took my arm. He dragged me to his office and closed the door. I turned away from him. "Ella." He said making me look at him. "You have more Fae blood than Sookie." He said, I froze. "Tell me why." He didn't sound forceful. "No." I whispered and looked up at him. I wiped the blood that trickled from his ear down his neck. "Get some rest." I told him. I walked out not looking back even though I wanted to very badly.
I sat at a back booth trying to stay awake. But, I just couldn't.
I awoke to silence, of course I thought the worse. I ran into the bar area, Russell was tied to a pole still charred. Sookie was sitting in Eric's throne reading a magazine. It was truly a sight. "Hey." Alcide said from behind me. When I saw Alcide I had to stop myself. I wanted to jump into his arms, oh how I needed a hug.
"How'd you know I was here?" I asked him. He smiled. "Eric called me, said that if I did one last thing for him, my debt would be paid off." I nodded and without holding out any longer walked over for a hug. His body was warm as always. As he held me there Bill, Pam, and Eric entered the room. Eric stared from across the bar. When Eric saw me looking at him he looked away.
"When you two are done, we must go." Eric spat as he pulled Russell across the floor. Alcide let go of me and smiled. "See ya." Alcide said touching my cheek. "Bye." I peeped as they left.
Sookie drove us home. She was angry. When we got there, I went upstairs and showered. Sookie lent me one of her summer dresses since I had no clean clothes. I put the white dress on, it looked weird compared to my pale skin tone. After I was dressed I went out of the bathroom to hear Sookie crying.
I ran down the stairs to see Eric covered in dried cement. "Get the fuck off my porch you dead piece of shit!" She screamed at him. When I reached Sookie's side I looked up at him. I took Sookie's hand. Eric had told her that Bill came here to procure her and I for the queen. When he realized I was gone, he settled for Sookie. He let those V dealers almost beat her to death so he could give her his blood. It was all true. Eric smiled as he told her.
"I'm sorry that you are suffering." He said to Sookie. She was sobbing, she took off. I was left standing there looking at Eric who was still smiling. "Eric, you are the sickest bastard I've ever met." I whispered to him. "You can do anything to me, but I won't let you hurt my sister." I growled. "Sister?" Eric whispered with wide eyes. When I realized I had let that slip, I slammed the door in his face.
