Sookie felt like she was flying, she felt totally relaxed and at peace, until she landed on her feet. She looked behind her and saw her body sleeping in her bed with Niall watching over her. Niall must of put her there after she collapsed. She can tell she's having an outer body experience, at least she think she is. She went to check on Eric. He was still in his cubby resting. Sookie couldn't believe what she was seeing. The ugly black veins that were there, became pure white and they were... radioactive was the best word to describe it. In fact his whole body was glowing, radiant, sparkling. Almost like a fairy or alien. "Is this a good sign?" Sookie questioned herself.
"It's a very good sign." a familiar voice came from behind her. Sookie turned saw Godric!
"Godric! Oh my Stars!" she ran to him and gave him a hug.
He wrapped his arms around her and gave her a warm almost fatherly smile "How are you little one?"
"I can't believe you're here!" Sookie still hanged to Godric like her life depended on it. Then she let go and stood back "What are you doing here?"
"I'm here as the messenger. To tell you what's happening to you and Eric."
"Just please tell me is he going to be okay?" Sookie asked with urgency. She prayed that she saved him from his true death.
"He's going to be fine. The virus is gone." Godric smiled and Sookie let out a sigh of relief. She cheered to herself that she saved him "In fact he's going to be more than fine, he's going to have a bright, long future ahead of him ."
"So what's going on with his body? Why is it so bright and almost alien?" Sookie looked at her mate's body and wondered with worry.
"He's healing and transforming, Sookie. He's becoming something else." Sookie began to look worried again. "Don't worry little one, it's nothing bad."
"He's becoming what?"
"We don't have a name for it, the closest way to describing it would be a living god? Or almost as close to Warlow with him being half fae and half vampire."
"He can walk in daylight?!" Sookie asked in excitement.
"He can walk in daylight, eat food as well as blood...actually he needs both now because his organs are back to working. He still going to live forever as much as he wants, but now he has some human and maybe fae abilities."
"But he's still a vampire?" Sookie is so confused as to what Eric is now. This is going to be a learning experience for both of them.
"Yes. Tell him it is best to keep his extra abilities a secret. After all what the other vampires who still have the virus, what are they going to think when they see that he's all better?" Godric actually gave Sookie an indirect warning that she caught on. She and Eric are still in danger...the other vamps who have the virus are going to want her and possibly him as 'The Cure'.
"So Godric, Eric is now a 'living god' as you put it. Now am I completely human?" Sookie asked nervously. All this time of wanting to be normal, the moment is here. This is her chance, but can she live without her powers? After all what she has seen and heard in people's minds. She didn't realize how much she used her telepathy, not only to save herself, but also others. Seeing Eric with all this new power he has, she needs to keep up with him. For once Sookie wished she had her powers back, so she can live in Eric's world comfortably...well as comfortably as you can.
"Sookie, you used every bit of power that you had in the most loving way possible. You were willing to sacrifice your supernatural self for your mate without anything in return." The high beings from the spirit world are amazed.
"You're making sound like I won a prize at the end." Sookie smiled.
"In a way you have." Godric putted his hands at close range and there stood a fairy ball in his hands." Sookie looked astonished. "A gift from Goddess Freya, for rescuing her beloved warrior. All of the fairy powers are in here, telepathy, teleportation, telekinesis, and being a hundred percent fairy."
Sookie couldn't believe what she was being offered. "Whose Freya?"
"A Norse Goddess, her powers are love, sex, protection, war, childbirth, prosperity, and she watches over fairies and witches. The Norse pantheon is Eric's spiritual beliefs before he became a vampire. In fact most Vikings worshipped them. Anyway Freya has been watching over him and you for a very long time. In fact Sookie you were created by Freya as Eric's other half.
"You mean I was destined for Eric?"
"Yes you were. You meeting Bill Compton was just a catalyst for you to meet Eric. There's more to know but...I can't say anymore than that." Sookie head was ready to explode from all of this new information. Like Scarlett, she'll deal with it another day.
"I can't...I can't accept the gift, the fairy smell will drive the vampires crazy...it'll make Eric crazy." she said sadly.
"Niall will show you how to mask your scent from other vampires and the smell would make Eric aroused, but he won't drain you."
"So one sniff of me and Eric is instantly ready for me?" Sookie giggled at this. "Great I'm his new Viagra!" Sookie started laughing uncontrollably.
Even Godric started laughing "Sookie you've always been his personal Viagra, this is nothing different." Sookie laughed even harder. How true it was, for everytime Eric had the chance just to be with Sookie, he always offered sex. They finally started to calm down. Sookie looked at the fairy ball again. She'll accept the gift and make her a full fairy, just so she can be on some level with Eric, but also to protect herself and him from future threats.
Sookie looked at Godric and nodded at him, giving him the signal that she's accepting the gift. "Two more things Sookie, you are destined to be his but even if you weren't, he's so in love with you that's he's willing to kill anyone who harms you...including Pam. Don't abuse his love, Sookie. Also Freya wants to make a request for your life. You still have free will, so it's your decision." Sookie nodded in understanding. "When the time is right, let Eric turn you into what he is. It's the same way as a vampire, it'll just give you extra power and being more close to him than ever...that's all".
"Okay, I'll take everything under consideration." Sookie said maturely, surely she doesn't want to make a goddess angry. Especially one that gives her a gift.
Godric held the fairy ball and gave it to Sookie "Let it absorb into yourself, like you've done when you practiced you're ball." Sookie nodded and she let the energy take over.
"I'm feeling sleepy." Sookie's spirit starts to pull back into her body. For the rest of the time, Sookie slept. While she was sleeping, Niall was seeing changes to Sookie's body, she not only she was glowing but her ears were getting pointy and is he seeing...wings? "It can't be...there hasn't been wings on fairies since the original fairies. Which was over twenty thousand years ago." Niall talked to himself. Godric smiled and went to Eric and visited him in his dreams.
When Eric felt Sookie's magic, he was feeling nothing but warmth, peace, and surrounded by love. He is now resting on almost like a cloud of some sort. He made the conclusion that he was in Valhalla. He never felt so much love and warming sensation throughout his body. Until he heard someone call out his name. "Eric...Eric...Eric." Eric looked around this cloudy place. He didn't know where he was, but he knew that he was safe.
"Eric." Eric turned around and saw the face he missed so much.
"Godric." Eric bent down on his knees, looking up at his beloved maker. "Is it really you?"
"Yes my child, it's me." Godric smiled looking at his best achievement through his vampire years. Eric stood back up again.
"I'm really am in Valhalla! I must of met the true death." Eric said almost sadly.
"No my child, you're not dead. You're in the middle of a transformation and healing process."
"Sookie really did it?" Eric said with pride and love.
"Yes, she did. You're virus is gone." Eric felt that sense of freedom and power again.
"I can tell, everything that made me feel so sick is gone. Is she okay?"
"Yes she is and if you were wondering if she still has her powers, she doesn't." Eric accepted it, he loved her just the same, especially what she did for him, until Godric said this. "She gained whole new set of powers, she's completely fae...a gift from Freya."
Tears came down Eric's eyes "Freya? She...she's involved with this?"
"Yes she is, I'm just the messenger for her. I can't stay long, I already stayed long enough for Sookie. I already explained to her what's going on between you two. So when you both wake up, you'll have a lot to talk about.
"You have no idea how hard it was for me...for Nora...when you died." Eric started to cry as much as the time he saw Godric on the rooftop.
"Just think of me as your personal guardian angel for you and Sookie." Godric said with sentiment. "I'm only a prayer away. Also about Nora...she's fine." Eric looked at his maker. Eric's tears really started to flow. Everyone that he ever loved who met their deaths are okay. Vampires were not quite sure if there was an afterlife for them. Eric now knows the answer. Even though deep inside him he has a very, very long life to live. He knows when his time is truly up, he will be with his loved ones again.
"Eric, you're going to be something great when you wake up and so will Sookie. More powers and abilities. Just remember to use them wisely." Eric nodded in understanding. "I have to go, Sookie will explain the rest."
"Please min fader (my father/sire), please don't go. Is there any power that me or Sookie has that can...bring you back?" Eric asked hopefully.
"No min son (my son). My time on earth is gone. My job now is to watch over you and Sookie." Eric had to finally accept that Godric is gone but with a peaceful mind that all he has to do is call on him whenever its necessary. He watch Godric fade away...
...Then Eric woke up...
