TUESDAY NIGHT

EPOV

I wake with 2 hours of sunlight left, per my usual. I roll out of bed going to retrieve my phone from its charger. Going in to my office I hit the speaker button to listen to my messages, while I boot up my lap top to check my businesses, emails and get some area work done.

Why Sophie had insisted I stay in Nola for the entire week is beyond me. She is getting nuttier and more childish with each passing decade.

All she did while I was there was whine and moan about the economy and having to pay taxes. This is not something that the human's just started doing.

But she acts as though it is something that was invented just to torture her. I have been paying taxes for the last 20 years or so just in case.

We all knew we would be revealing ourselves to the humans soon and taxes would be the first thing they would want to try to collect on.

Bureaucrats will definitely want to try to collect on any back taxes that they think they're entitled to. It'll be another way to to fund their pet projects.

So when the reveal happened I was well covered with old tax records. I am always prepared. Sophie Anne not so much. Apparently she didn't feel the need to listen to everybody that she asked for advise from.

Of course now she simply can't understand why, she as Queen should have to pay taxes to the reigning government of which she lives and makes money in, yet she taxes each and every vampire in her retinue to live and work in her territory.

I spent three nights trying to get her to see the similarity's between her and the government. When she said that she was very different from them.

She cited that she works hard for the money she receives and the government was full of nothing but lazy bureaucrats living off the backs of others hard work. That's when I gave up.

I wanted to snatch Sophie bald headed, she can be so damn infuriating some times. I thought for sure I would spend at least a month chained in silver when I slipped and said in the words of my child Pam.

" Well duh, that's exactly what your doing nightly."

Apparently she either didn't hear me or she just chose to ignore me and the others there that were giving her advise.

Either way after that close call I stopped trying to explain anything to her royal pain in my ass and just played Yahtzee the remaining time I was there.

I am not sure which was worse torture. The Yahtzee or actually trying to get the infant Queen to listen to any of us. The queen is a royal pain but not one I can do anything about.

Well at least for now that is. So I will just take out my aggression in another way. If I ever catch the son of a bitch who invented that infuriating game.

I am going to turn him and gift him to the Queen. Even command to spend each and every endless night playing with her and her beloved pets and children for ever. See how just how much he fucking likes it in say 1,000 years.

While I am reading and returning emails I am also listening to my messages. One message I re play twice to make sure I am hearing right.

Herveaux had called about some random murders out where he lives that had fresh fang marks on the dead girls bodies.

Now normally I would just send one of my children to investigate and report back to me their findings then call Alc back with any information I find.

But what surprises me was when he say's there was the smell of vampire and Fae in the woods behind his house in Bon Temps. How in the fuck he knows what a Fae smells like is beyond me. Fae haven't been in this realm since the last war centuries ago.

There also shouldn't be any vampires in that area which means I have a rouge. Add to that now there's murders in a town that doesn't have much crime if any crime?

That's all I need is to have a rouge vampire killing and not cleaning up after himself. It had better not be any of my vampires.

They were all warned before the great reveal what I expected out of them as far as killings went and I sure as hell don't see any filings pertaining to any accidental or otherwise human deaths, in my stack of papers.

UGH! Sophie of all the weeks to demand my presence at court why does she pick this past week. I will definitely need go to Bon Temps to check out what is been happening in my area as soon as the sun sets. I send a text to Alc letting him know to expect me shortly after dark.

I quickly catch up with the rest of my duties as sheriff. After shutting off my computer I grab a shower and get dressed in my usual black jeans and black tank with kick boots and leather jacket.

I check my self in the mirror as I gel my hair back. I still can't get used to my new hair cut. I grab my phone and wallet lock up and fly towards Bon Temps as the last rays fall behind the horizon.

I still think this hair cut was payback for their most recent punishment, of not allowing Pam and Aley to go to Europe for the new fall fashion.

I mean they just got back from NY C's fall fashion week, where they bought more than they'll even wear in the next decade.

They had to rent an eighteen wheeler to bring home most of their purchases for fucks sake. Goddess knows that doesn't even include what they had crammed on my plane to bring back.

It took the workers nearly two extra hours to unload all the packages, and fourteen cargo vans to deliver it to their warehouse closets.

The only good thing to come out of my children's clothes shopping addiction was the goldmine invention of storage warehouses. It has made us all a mint.

I love my girls and according to Godric I spoil them far too much and I am way to lenient in letting them do as they please. Even when it comes to their punishments.

But knowing their passions and true loves gives me the knowledge I need of what will hurt them the most. I have way more options of punishments this way.

My girls are creative in how to test their limits, and the two of them together are a dangerous pair when bored. In my 1,200 years I have had to learn how to be creative in their punishments.

While Pam is a total snob and is repulsed by as she calls it cheap disposable clothing. She is a total shoe whore and has only the priciest shoes made.

She won't even look at a shoe that cost less than a grand. Taking away Pam's precious shoes and making her wear those crocs I bought at the dollar store for a month was pure genius. It was way harder on her than a week in a silver lined coffin.

Maybe lime green was pushing it though. Nah she got the message and just simply pulling the shoes out now to show her has the desired effect each time she pushes me.

When Aley laughed at her sister's shoe punishment and continued making fun of her even after I warned her. She didn't laugh long.

Where Pam is a snob Aley is vain. She'll wear any name brand no matter what it costs as long as it makes her look good or in her words Gorgeous Darling.

When I took all of Aley's expensive hand bags that she just loves to carry everywhere she goes, because it complete the ensemble, she says.

I took they away and made her use a clear plastic bag with contents of embarrassing human female things, I glamored a woman to find for me, she was livid.

She wasn't allowed to be with out it for the same given month as Pam wore her shoes. I wasn't a popular maker that month at all.

When Aley accidentally left that purse in my office in the bottom drawer of my filing cabinet pushed all the way in the back under the files. She seriously thought I wouldn't notice it missing.

She was from that point on commanded to explain why she was carrying said products even when she didn't need them any longer.

When she whined that she lost it accidentally. I added a rainbow bright costume and bright yellow crocs to her sentence.

Accidentally my ass. I enjoyed glamoring people to ask her every chance I got why she looked like she did. She got the point after that.

Thankfully Pam didn't want to test me any further. Her next step was thrift store clothes two sizes to big in only whites and lime green. She hates those colors.

I was re born at night just not last night. Aley scowled at me every time someone asked but she has not pushed me since then.

Yes this hair cut was definitely payback. What did Pam call it a makeover? I'll just let them think I love it. That will piss them off more so if I act as though I hate it. I can always regrow it if I so choose. Besides I do look more modern and up to date as Aley would say.

I touch down in the grave yard were Herveaux said the scents were. I am immediately hit with a barrage of scents.

Taking in all the different scents, I can smell at least two very recent scents that are vampire. Why is my maker here and what the hell was Compton doing here?

But what I smell next shakes me the most. It is the scent of a Fae and Demon. What he hell, is going on in my area!?

As I am walking around trying to ascertain which scents met with whom, I send a quick text to Pam to see if there are any recent vampire requests to move to Bon Temps besides the one Compton made a month ago.

I denied him access to my area. He is nothing but a brown nosing worm. Looking to crawl his way up the ladder in the vampire hierarchy.

We'll see if he is my rouge vampire or not. If he is I will take pleasure in killing him ever so slowly for disobeying me.

I follow his scent to a dilapidated house that a strong breeze can blow down, when more scents assault my nostrils. All of whom shouldn't be here.

What is the ancient one doing here, and was she here with Brigant? I will never be able to forget his scent. Most importantly is how does Compton, my maker and the demon fit in?

Why all of the sudden is there so much Supernatural business going on in my area? Most specifically in this little Po dunk town where only shifters and weres live?

I am getting no where fast. I text Aley to check our sources for any unusual supe activity in and around area 5. I also ask her to contact Godric to offer her assistance in tracking, to him should he need it while he is here in my area.

I follow Herveaux's unique wolf scent to an old but well maintained farmhouse on the opposite side the grave yard.

I approach the back porch as I can hear several people in what smells like the kitchen area. I knock and a small young woman with light brown hair and the smell of magic around her.

My guess is she's a witch. A powerful one at that. I will need to talk to her at some point about warding my businesses. She answers the door

"Yes?"

I smile at the witch and politely say

" Eric Northman Sheriff of area 5 here to see Alc Herveaux. Is he here ?"

She gives permission to enter while stepping out of the way.

I pass through the back porch door, I smell the Brigant twins as well as Quinn his sister and Janice before I even see them all sitting around the table.

I make it a point to know all supes that live in my area . As I enter the kitchen fully I see Hearveaux with the most beautiful voluptuous blonde bomb shell, with the most pouty lips sitting on his lap.

Her eyes, I could get lost in those dark pools of chocolate. Eyes so round and innocent looking, just staring up at me. I feel a tug in my chest that wasn't there a minute ago.

She smells like nothing I have ever smelled before. Like purity, honey and sunshine. There is an innocence about her, my Gods she's untouched.

I look at Herveaux and nod. He has this beautiful creature wrapped up in his arms. I wonder if she is his. I don't recall hearing that he had taken a mate.

Maybe he'd like another three way with her, like we did so often in his college years. After all he is very attractive and not as closed minded like most Weres. He enjoyed me as much as I did him.

Hell other than my maker and Hearveaux, I didn't sleep with men unless my undead life depended on it. They never held any interest for me.

Yet I feel that she is some one who should be treated much better than that. Maybe if she is not his then she will agree to be mine.

I have never felt this way in all my years on this earth. I want to know her in every way possible. I can smell that she is more than just human. But what that is I can not pin down. Bringing me back out of my thoughts I hear Alc say.

" Eric have you smelled outside yet. Do you recognize the vampire scents. My buddy Jason is being accused of the murders. They all have vampire bites.

Then with the foreign smells and different scents of the last couple of days around my Sookie's house. I thought it best to see if you could help us. Do you recognize any of them?"

My Sookie, so she is his. Dammit. He and I will have to have a long talk. I have never felt this pull towards another like I feel now. It is almost like a pull towards them both.

I answer his and Sookies questions. I give my theories on whom the murderer is, as I feel my maker quickly approaching the house using our bond to hone in on me.

I inform the witch to let my maker in before he knocks. As he enters the kitchen he drags a heavily glamored human behind him. He explains that he received a call from Piatha to come here to meet with her.

He hears my future lover's distress over her brothers arrest of the murders and wrongful accusal and sniffs out the murderer to appease her and help me.

He chastises me in front of my subjects as though I am a fledgling. I understand his concerns but it still aggravates me to no end.

I am well over 1200 years old I do not need to be told what to do. I show proper remorse to my maker even though I have an excuse I do not dwell on it.

I am shocked when he announces that I have found my mates. That must be the feeling that I have felt tugging in my chest since I have arrived here this evening.

Though he said mates. I wonder if he means Herveaux too. It would make sense as to why we get along so well. I hear my maker giving final instructions and everyone does as my maker says.

At hearing Claudine mention a red head at my bar, I walk out of the house onto a service porch. Quickly taking my cell out I call Pam, and in less than one ring I hear her pick up. I don't wait for her to answer before I give her my orders

' Shut down the club Pam. I am on my way back for a meeting with Godric and several others. Make sure your sister is there also. You have ten minutes maximum.'

Pam informs me in a bored tone,

' Our insufferable child of a Queen has already closed down the bar. Master she is demanding your presence immediately as if I can just snap my fingers...'

UGH! I had hoped that Claudine was wrong, but no my life simply doesn't work that way. What does she want from me now.

I just left her side night before last. I haven't even been home for 24 hours yet. Odin give me the strength to not end her. I reply quickly,

'Fine Tell her Majesty that I am on my way.'

I snap my phone shut not waiting for a reply. I know Pam will relay the message and I do not want to talk to her petulant ass over the phone.

Stepping back into the kitchen I can tell by the eye brow lifted at me that he heard everything that was said on the phone. Though I quickly inform the rest of what transpired on the phone. I need to think of some thing else quickly so that I don't rip her head off when I see her.

The shocker of the evening so far is that Sookie is a telepath. Through out my long life I have never met a telepath before. A physic yes, a telepath no.

But before I can even tense wondering is she can read my mind. She quickly admits that she can't. I wonder if Herveaux knew and has been hiding her from me?

Just as we were about to take our leave I smell foreign weres and vampires in her woods out back. I glance at Godric when Sookie tenses and Herveaux growls out a warning.

She must have sensed them. That must come in real handy. I can not wait to explore all that she is capable of doing with her telepathy.

I feel a sense of longing and a pain in my chest once we are outside the house. Godric and I take our leave taking to the sky. I distract my self by asking,

" Master did I hear you say mates? Is that why I feel a tug in my chest towards Sookie and perhaps the Wolf? Is this the prophecy you have told me is to be my destiny? "

Even though the wind is whipping by us as we speed towards my bar I can hear him as clearly as he me. He smirks as he answers never looking away from me.

"Yes my child. It seems so. I believe the time has come. CC came to see me a couple of nights after the reveal. She said she too had received a call to come here.

I believe you just met your mates and your time to start your destiny draws near. She is very beautiful and very powerful yes? You are drawn to her and the Wolf are you not?

I can see your aura as well as theirs. All of your auras have a beautiful golden hue that intensified when you helped them to stand. I knew you had found them as soon as I entered the room. Your aura only confirmed it for me.

You do remember all that I have told you? Your destiny and all that was foretold to you will come to pass now. The fates have chosen well in their vessels."

I take in everything he has said. It has been so long since he told me of my future that I quite frankly had dismissed it as never happening. But now, I think of all that is to come and I ask him.

" Godric have you prepared the home for us to live during the transformation?"

Relief floods me at his words as he answers me.

" Yes I was told everything will be in place by 9pm. All that I will need to know now are their sizes for clothes and any essentials they will need to barricade our selves in.

I have already text CC to meet us at your club with my scrolls as well as resigned my sheriff duties in Dallas. Isabel is sending Marcus to over see you area while we are sequestered."

" Everything is happening so fast. I heard rumblings of a church being formed that denounces us as demons in Dallas.

Which reminds me did you smell the stench of demon in the woods. I believe it to be Krogen. But how would he know, where to be and that the time has come?"

" Yes I did. I believe he was summoned just as Niall, CC and I were. He will send protectors should we need them. "

" Dammit she brought guards and her watch dog Andre with her. His gift is Supernatural scenting. He will be able to smell Sookie and the twins and know exactly what they are."

"I will watch for them to pop here and bring them around back my child. Do not worry they will not get them."

" What do you mean get them? What aren't you telling me Godric?"

" Just for now know that your mates will be safe. I have my spies and lets just say that your Queen didn't get what she wanted while you were away. Go my child before she gets angry and tries to punish you or your child."

" I"ll figure a way to get rid of Sophie. Please protect them."

I say to my master as we land behind my bar. I hear Godric snicker as we enter through the back entrance. He asks,

" Fangtasia ? Really Eric. Does your ego need more inflating? You give your children too much leeway. Which one?"

He shakes his head and I just smirk at him. I shrug my shoulders. I am not ashamed of who I am. I am a vampire viking sex god. I own it. One night with me is like a ride at Disney. I answer with a smug voice.

" I am who I am. I know they are spoiled, but they are very loyal. Pam won. Aley wanted to call it a Fanged nut. Because biting gives us all bon..."

" I get it child. I stand by my original statement you give them way to much leeway."

I open the door to the main bar and stroll in and around to the front of my dais. Keeping my features neutral only to find my Queen in all her delusional glory perched atop my throne with one of my dancers giving her a lap dance. I steel my self as I feel my anger soar.

By the Gods she is testing her boundaries... I take in a deep and totally unnecessary breath trying to tamp down my anger. The fact that she doesn't even notice me yet shows her age and ineptitude to wear that crown.

I could have her head before she even realizes she has lost it. She wouldn't be my Queen if I would have taken the crown when offered to me, but Godric said no.

Looking bored, belaying my irate state, I nod my head to her. As her elder I will not bow to her in my own bar and say in a calm but cold voice.

" My Queen I arrived as soon as I was notified you were here waiting for me. Was there something that we didn't discuss in the previous week?

Since it has been only 24 hours since we last talked I assume that it must be urgent for you to drop everything and come to me?"

She taps a perfectly manicured nail on my throne and dismisses my dancer from her lap. She smiles at me coyly and I mentally roll my eyes.

I have got to stop letting my children's actions rub off on me. She tries her best at looking intimidating. Instead she just looks constipated as Aley would say. Since she can't rattle me. She finally huffs out.

" Why were you not here when I arrived. Are you hiding something from me Northman. Or maybe perhaps someone I should know about?

Nothing escapes my knowledge. I know all that goes on in my Queendom, Northman and there is something here that I want..."

Pausing for I'm sure what she thinks is dramatic effect. She gets up and stalks towards me and away from the back hall where I just came from

I hear a shriek from the back as CC enters in a blur. Thank the Gods for the interruption before Sophie can continue whining that I am keeping something from her.

I try hard to play the polite politician. As I can clearly tell CC is trying to push Sophie into doing something stupid. She is always spoiling for a fight.

While I wouldn't mind her ending Sophie, I hate the paperwork it generates. Not to mention we don't have time for this shit right now.

You can tell Sophie is intimidated by CC. I'm not sure if it's because she's on the council or because she's over five times her age.

Either way her threats to me and CC both are as empty as her head is. It is all I can do not to stick my tongue out and yell nanny nanny boo boo as she goes out of the door.

As soon as Sophie leaves, ha who am I kidding she ran like the little bitch she is, completely terrified of CC like she was the big bad wolf.

I really have got to stop letting my addiction to cartoons influence my thoughts, or I will end up in silver or much, much worse one day.

Godric brings everyone in through the back room and again I am hit with a sense of longing and emptiness that I have never felt before.

I find myself staring at Alc and this Sookie when I hear a knock the door. Pam answers it to find Quinn and several others that were at the house earlier.

I see one that is with them that wasn't at the house. This must be her brother. I see Pam's nostrils flare as he enters. I can feel her instant attraction to him as she checks him out. He runs over and picks my Sookie up hugging her tightly despite her protests.

I laugh quietly when I hear Pam growling at his affections towards his sister until her lust runs through me at the sight of Alc's sister entering the bar.

Now she is definitely more my child's speed and taste, but she will be pissed and most likely whine when I tell her that she is off limits because I suspect that she is my Sookies brothers.

At least I hope Sookie will consent to being mine. I see everyone else quickly take a seat surrounding the dais where Godric is now standing in front of my throne. Dammit.

He glances at it then back at me with a snicker and a raised eye brow. I'll never hear the end of it now. I will have to think of a suitable punishment for Aley.

I am mesmerized by Sookies beauty. I feel a sense of being complete now sitting next to her with Alc on her opposite side. I want to touch her well more than just our legs touching.

Touching them, it feels like almost a need until I feel his hand resting on her shoulder and his knuckles brush my shoulder. An instant calm and a sense of contentment fills me.

I listen to Godric and watch as CC unrolls the paintings and I am shocked everything I see. It looks just as every thing and every one now, my hair is even short and that was recent.

I look the bars the same, the people are all pictured are the same as we are seated now. I don't get a chance to look at the rest of the pictures when I hear Sookie scream.

Holding her head I feel a desperate need to take the pain from her. I don't know what to do to help her. I scan her body for any injury and I find nothing psychically wrong with her.

Alc glances at me with a look of panic as he tries to comfort her and I reach over and touch her leg with my hand and I feel her instantly calm some.

She is still holding her head when I try to calm her further by rubbing soothing circles on her thigh. I hear Claudine say we need to move to a more secure location.

I do not like to run from a fight but my maker has told me what is to be done and what is most likely happen. So I will do what I must to see the prophecy fulfilled and keep my mates safe.

I blur to the dais grabbing the scrolls, then blur back to my office retrieving my broad sword. Giving them to Aley I give her, her tasks and squelch Pam's childish out burst.

I am so fucking grateful that my maker wasn't here to witness yet another one of her outbursts. He already thinks I spoil her too damn much.

And I suppose it is true that I do spoil her too much. But Pam has felt more like my family then Aley or even Godric does to an extent.

I am not looking forward to be sequestered with them both for any amount of time. Add in Godric and I only hope that they don't try and kill each other in front of him.

Once we all arrive Godric issues his orders and shows us all around what will soon become our home for the foreseeable future.

I smirk and openly leer showing a little fang at the blush Godric receives from my Sookie while we all wait for the elevator doors to close.

I sniff the air and I can clearly smell her arousal as well as Alc's. What is strange is that I can feel his lust, love and protectiveness for her.

I can feel her love and lust too but there is other feelings much stronger of fear, confusion and drowning? What the fuck. Her emotions are most confusing.

She must be feeling overwhelmed with everything that she has learned tonight. I want to know why in the hell I can feel them suddenly, but I will need to wait until I have more time to make sure it's her emotions I feel and not just read or sense.

Once we separate I feel the instant loss of her as Alc and I go back up to finish getting everything done. I send out texts to my most trusted and loyal subjects that have known of the prophecy that was foretold with four simple words and the address.

'It begins now. Guard 599 Cedar Hill Ave.'

I inform my replacement Marcus what he will need to watch out for and the address to one of my safe houses to stay in since Fangtasia isn't safe right now.

He surprises me when he swears his fealty to me over the phone and informs me that he and his second are at the bar and had already run off several humans.

Claudine was right. I still can' believe it has started already. Though I suspect no one knows just how fast everything will progress.

Which brings me back to my Sookie and Alc and their connection to each other. I turn to Alc asking

"How long have you known Sookie? Do you feel a connection to her?"

" It's really fucking weird, I have known her almost her whole life, and I never felt more than a really close friendship with her. Same as with you.

But when I saw you enter the kitchen earlier I felt a sense of longing towards her and you. Is this, I mean are we the fated ones.

I had heard of this prophecy hell all supes have heard of it. It's our salvation. But I mean I never felt like this when I was with Sookie all those years.

Even with you when we had all our three ways I never felt any pull towards you, either of you like I do now."

For the first time I see him as the man he has become. Not my sometimes sex partner or were liaison, or even as a friend. I know in my cold dead heart that this is right. Godric was right all along. I state

"Godric believes so and you saw the paintings just like I did. I have never seen them before tonight he always refused to show them to me.

He even commanded me to never search for them. But I to feel something toward you I never felt before too. I feel we have much to discuss with Sookie.

She is a virgin right? How do you think she will feel being mated to the both of us? I can feel her and you both, and it is getting stronger and much harder to ignore the pain of being separated."

I see Claude let Claudine in and both head down. Alc says

" Yea I know she's a virgin. Hell she's never really dated, and well between all of us we wouldn't have allowed any asshole to just fuck and dump her.

She's always been to special for that. She's very open minded about things She knows that her brother, Quinn, Sam and I all experimented in college.

She even knows that I have had three ways. Not that I was with you by name. But she knows I've been with both men and women.

She blushes when ever we talk about it. She even asked questions. But I think she'll be okay as long as we talk to her and give her the time she might need to adjust. I love her. I always have but I never felt what I now feel for my Tinker bug."

We finish up our texts and we move to go down. Waiting for the elevator I laugh out

" Tinker bug? A nick name huh? So she knows of her lineage?"

Alc chuckles and says

" Yes she does as of last Sunday. But her nickname was from when she was real little. She loved to chase lady bugs and firefly's as a kid.

She thought firefly's were tinker bells and lady bugs were sprites. So I would tease her calling her tinker bug. It stuck. She calls me bear cause I pack away the food."

He shrugs his shoulders and I listen to him talk about her and her brother and how their Gran practically raised everyone here. I hope to meet her soon.

Now I understand why her feelings were so strong earlier. That is a lot of information to absorb in any amount of time much less than two days.

As we step off the elevator I blur to the office to get paper and pens and return to Alc telling him we need to get a list together of what he needs while we're here and give it to Godric.

I feel a pull towards the kitchen where I just know she'll be. I see Sookie sitting at the table making her list. She's looks so tiny sitting there all alone. I offer,

"Alc, you want a drink?"

" A beer would be great if there's any."

I open the cooler to find several different types of beer all sporting the name Bud.

" We have Bud, in several different forms."

" That's fine. I'm not that damn picky."

I get his beer and my blood. I heat my blood and open it as I give Alc his beer. Taking a swig I grab the paper and pen Alc offers me and sit down next to my future lovers side.

But as soon as my leg touches hers my mind is bombarded with what I can only guess is a vision from Sookie. I see Alc eyes go wide as I hear screams just as the alarms go off over head.

I blur to the weapons room grabbing my broadsword as well as Godrics. I also grab several daggers and two semi automatic riffles and a couple of rounds of extra ammo.

I press the button for the escape hatch and I am sucked up in seconds into the garage to find banging on the garage doors and the only door that leads out side.

I blur to my makers side handing him his sword and a dagger. The girls each retrieve the riffles I have brought for them. CC has her stars as well as her knives out and ready.

I hear my maker says that we are to wait for our backup. I have no chance to say anything to him of what I saw from Sookie's mind, when we, hear our back up arrive.

The sound of the Fae royal guards popping in and the immediate sound of swords clashing are like music to my ears. Oh how I love a good sword fight.

Godric opens the door and we all blur out. Both Godric and I take to the sky as the girls all take cover and start shooting.

The Fae royal guard are fighting the elves and the weres. I can see the long tooth pack arriving and joining in the fun. The demons appear and are fighting the druids.

I fly alongside my maker as we swoop down and slaughter any enemy standing. In the distance I can hear Thalia's war cry as the arriving vampires join in.

You can here shots ringing out as I feel my blood lust for the fighting rise. I look to keep my maker safe as he engages with a druid.

In a move so fast I almost didn't see it, he beheads the druid. But before I can reach him a stake is plunged through my makers body just as I had seen.

But instead of seeing my maker turn to goo I notice for the first time a bubble surrounding my maker. It's a bright blue light glowing and pulsing close to his skin.

What kind of magic's does she posses already? Godric rips the head off the elf that stabbed him from behind him before he even has the chance to remove his arm from inside my makers chest. Godric should be finally dead. What the fuck.

The blue glow seems to follow him where ever he goes. He is completely unharmed. Shaking off the shock and awe, I look for my next kill.

I swoop down again taking off at least a dozen human heads as I blur by them. They were almost as strong as our weres. They just weren't as fast as me.

I am a warrior through and through you always protect your allies. Grabbing the head of an elf as I decapitate him.

I let out my warriors cry as I throw the head at several humans and weres knocking down quite a few of both. Both Pam and Aley are on them as I shout out.

" Leave some alive for us to question."

I don't look to see if they heard me. My blood tells me that they did. I slash through a druid when another elf engages me in fighting.

He may be almost eight feet tall but he is still no match for me. I swoop down low and fly through his legs and come up behind him and quickly take his head off.

The elves don't die but the become apart of the earth until the can be returned to their realm and regenerate, and fight again.

I suddenly hear a scream and I zoom towards where Godric and CC are surrounded on all sides with Druids and elves both. His bubble is protecting him as he takes several direct hits.

It is as if they can not understand why he isn't dead yet. He is protecting CC who has several lacerations and a couple of deeper cuts on her shoulders.

She is out of her knives and stars and she can't find a way out. I see the demons sneaking up behind some of them when one of the Druids goes to stab her and I swoop in ripping his head off his shoulders before his blade reaches her.

As the fighting is all but over with only a few remaining survivors who are being held. The Fae guards and the weres take them prisoners while the vampires and the demons start the cleanup.

No doubt Godric or I will be finding out what our new prisoners know. I can hear him barking out orders. I see Thalia dragging something by a leg behind her.

I recognize him immediately. I just saw him at the Queens compound when I was finally granted permission to leave. But before I can make my way over to them I feel a painful tug in my chest. So painful in fact, that I actually check to see if I am damaged.

I love to fight and torture, but this feeling of longing that is getting too painful to be separated from my mates. I am going to have to leave, I can't ignore it any longer.

I land at the door being guarded by two Fae and enter the garage quickly closing the door behind me. I sense no danger or any one else in the garage.

I go to the door marked laundry and quickly shed my clothes trashing them. I do not want to offend Sookie with all the blood and gore.

I shower quickly and grab a towel wrapping it around my waist. I do not want to waste time searching for clothes. I grab another towel to wipe down my sword.

I will have to remember to clean it properly later. I need my mates to sate my blood lust. I blur to the elevator and as I am keying in the codes I now understand the lengths he has gone to for our safety. My maker is almost obsessed with security.

The doors open to the foyer and I barely have time to react when an almost blonde blur leaps into my arms crying and mumbling into my neck.

Alc takes my sword from me with a look of relief? I wrap my arms around her and carry Sookie into the TV room with Alc hot on my heels.

When I try to set her down, but she refuses to let me go. I rub her back and her sobs and mumbling only confuse me more. I do not know how to deal with a crying woman.

I try to lower her once more and she just tightens her grip around my neck to the point that if I were human I wouldn't be able to breath.

Finally I give up and I lower my self down to sit on the couch as Sookie is attached to me like a barnacle. Just what in the hell happened down here to make her this upset?

TUESDAY EVENING

APOV

Eric hands me my beer and I give him the pen and paper he asked for. When our hands touch I feel a spark that I never felt when touching him before.

The same fucking spark I felt from Sookie when he first touched her at the farmhouse. Weird enough by it's self, but when we both sit next to her and my shoulder brushes up against hers. I feel that spark again only stronger.

At the same time our shoulders come in contact I see in my mind, a fight with Eric an Godric. Aw fuck the shit's about to hit the fan

I look wide eyed at Eric just moments before I hear Jason and Sookie scream and the alarms blaring everywhere.

Eric blurs out of the room and I just barely catch Sookie as she blacks out. Shit! Fuck this can't be happening. I practically scream.

"Sookie can you hear me. Tinker bug open your eyes. DAMMIT! SOOKIE WAKE THE FUCK UP ANGEL YOU SCARING ME."

I resist the urge to shift and follow Eric. Instead I hold her close to me trying to wake her up when I hear Janice screaming at Jason.

What The Fuck is going on with them. I pick Sookie up bridal style an rush to see Janice bent over a passed out Jason on the floor.

I lay Sookie's body gently down on the brown suede couch and go over and pick up Jason and lay him on the opposite facing couch. I lay Jason's head in Janice's lap and I say,

" Fran, Ames go look for some smelling salts and ask Quinn to get us two glasses of water. "

I sit down repositioning Sookie. Laying her head in my lap. The contact helps almost instantly with the pulling in my chest that I am feeling. I look to Janice and ask

" Shit Janice. What happened in here I heard you scream right after Jason and Sookie screamed?"

Fucking hell, now she's got tears in her eyes. Damn I hate it when they fucking cry. Sniffling out she starts.

" I don't know exactly. I mean Pam, Jason and I were sitting on this couch talking when Pam touched Jason. Well he like went into a trance then he jumped up.

He stared out into space for a minute or two then screamed and crumpled to the ground. I looked around just in time to see CC, Pam and Aley blur out of the room.

I started screaming when Jason wouldn't respond. Then you came in here carrying Sook. Whats going on I mean I saw things and that's never happened before. Alc I'm scared."

I've never seen Janice so upset. Hell if I'm fucking honest I'm fucking scared too. Shit. Shit. Shit. I just look up at her trying like hell to stay calm and say.

" Fuck! Janice, I don't know. But every thing points to involving the Fairy Niall and what we learned on Sunday about their heritage."

Including everything we've been told tonight and things I've heard from others. It looks like we're both major players in the future of the world I finish in my head.

But I have got to be sure if she is a part of this. If she is, along with Pam then they were wrong about the siblings part. Fuck.

I had always heard about it and assumed they were referring to one set of siblings not the other way around. Shit. But now, two sets. Of mates made up of siblings?

Shit. As far as I know we don't have anything magical about us other than our being Weres Damn... Aw hell. The moon. It makes sense now fangers, stars. Weres, moon. and Sookie and Jason sky Fae the sun. Shit. I'm worried that I'm right so I ask.

" Janice do you feel differently towards Jason or anyone else than you did before tonight?"

" Yes. Now that you mention it..."

Thank fuck for interruptions as Quinn brings the glasses in and sets them down beside us stating.

" I'm going back to the security room to watch the fighting since I can't over ride the security system on that elevator that Godrics got in place. The twins are already in there."

When he takes off I look over at Janice and she looks like shes coming to the same conclusion I just did. I love my baby sister. I know she is a strong Were and a great tracker.

Hell. I've fought in a few battles with her. Not good to piss off a female Were after she has a cub to protect and raise. She takes possessive and protective to a whole different level.

I am startled out of my thoughts with Ames screeching as she runs into the room sliding to a halt in front of me.

" I GOT IT! "

I can hear Fran running down the hall. I look up just as she rounds the corner. Each have a small breakable tube of smelling salts in their hands.

Damn I guess Godric did think of everything. Ames breaks the tube and runs it under Sookies nose. That shit smells disgusting even from here.

I gag as Sook coughs and her hand goes to swat Ames hand away before she opens her eyes. She blinks her eyes at me a few times, finally siting up. She asks

" Ames what in the h e double hockey sticks are you trying to do to me. Get that away from me it stinks like Jason's old gym shoes.

Where am I? How'd I get in here from the kitchen? Alc what happened and why is Jason laying asleep on Janice?"

Hell before I can start Ames , Fran and Janice start in telling her like they were running a play-by-play. I hand Sook her water giving her a kiss on the temple getting up to leave.

I snort at Janice holding her nose as she waves the stinky shit under Jason's nose as he stay's passed out. She must have never smelled the inside of his bedroom the day before laundry.

I go find Quinn in the security room staring at a bank of monitors. He's watching a fight that appears to be... hell being fought right outside.

His normal purple eyes are yellow and he's as stiff as a fucking board. Shit. I sit in the chair behind the desk zooming a camera in closer to catch all the action.

Like him I want to join in but we can't get out. Resisting the urge to change we continue to watch the war unfold before us. Sook comes running in here like her ass is on fire demanding.

" Alc. Where's Godric? I have to warn..."

I look up to see tears running down her terrified face. She climbs into my lap as she looks at the screens and gasps! Quinn says with out looking at her.

" He's outside fighting. DAMN ALC YOU SEE THAT! RIP THAT MOTHERFUCKER'S HEAD CLEAN... OH FUCK!"

Shit head. I look for the control to replay it. Sook just leans back into me and whimpers as I ask ,

" What?! No what the hell happened?"

He repeats what he saw.

" Godric just got staked by that elf and it didn't even effect him. Now him and Northman are ripping heads off of bodies. Did you know that they could fly?

That's one hell of a fight we're fucking missing. Ha! Did you see him throw that head at them humans. Northman knocked almost all of them down. Like this is bowling vampire style."

I rewind the footage to replay it while Sookie cries into my neck. Finally I replay it on a smaller screen and rub her back cooing

. " Shhhh he's fine Tinker bug everyone's safe. We're all just fine. Look see every body is just fine. Please Tinker bug I have to know what happened to you before you passed out screaming."

She explains that she saw a vision of what we just watched on the screen. Just as I did, Janice did. Hell I suspect Jason, Pam and Eric did too.

I am pulled out of my thoughts when I hear the elevator chime and open up. She leaps from my lap to attach herself to Eric just as he exits.

I am relieved he's safe and I grab his sword to return it to the weapons room. I go in and sit next to Eric where Sook's still crying and mumbling.

He looks like hes just as outta place with her crying as I am. Hell. We rub her back gently shushing her. As shes calming down I notice that he's only in a towel and his hair is still wet.

Thank fuck he took a shower first. There's no telling how'd she react to seeing him all bloody. Ames brings her some tissues and a glass of wine to help her calm down.

I pick up her legs laying them across my lap and I can feel her start to calm. The closeness and the touching seem to be soothing, even calming for all three of us.

If I wasn't convinced before about us being mates I am now. Eric gently prods her face from his neck with a tissue wiping her tears away. His voice filled with concern asks.

" Hush little one we are all safe. What magics did you wield to protect my maker? I would have lost him if not for you. Please little one talk to us?

Did you share your vision with me purposefully? Claudine can you maybe shed some light on whats happening to us?"

" I know that you have begun your transition. Your souls have reunited, unleashing the powers that have been bound for eons. All six of you will transform into true immortals.

Meaning nothing can harm you or your mates, none of you can ever die. If someone try's to behead any of you it will simply pass through you leaving you unharmed.

It was thought that the transformation would take up to one month before you would share any traits or powers. That piece of information apparently was wrong.

Everything I have seen in recent visions is rapidly changing and you three are progressing extremely fast, as are Jason and his mates. Godric may know more than I do about what is still to come.

I only see snippets. I don't usually understand them until I hear or see something concerning them. Of course it is usually already to late to allow time for any change.

From what I saw and I know, Sookie has the power of gift sharing and premonition which would explain all of you sharing the fight scene.

It would also explain how she protected Godric by gifting him something. I am not certain what it is that she did for or to him. But I think it could possibly be permanent."

What the fuck. Faeries always talking in circles. I look at Sook as I am still holding her legs rubbing soothing circles on her calf's, while Eric is holding her with one arm around her back and his other hand is joined with Sookies in her lap.

Laying my hand on top of theirs, I here everyone gasp. I look at my mates and we're all glowing a soft red hue. I look around no one else is glowing. Jason blurts out.

"Damn sis whats happening to you. Y'all three are glowing like a glow worm. "

Just then Pam sits next to Janice and Jason joining them and touching them both. They light up like their own fucking red glow worm.

Ha motherfucker. I snicker as Jason exclaims loudly all while trying to punch his way out of the red glow.

"What the fuck. Who did this? This ain't fucking funny? Quit it dammit."

I hear Godric chuckling at the entrance. When Sook jumps from our lap and into Godric's surprised arms. I feel instantly jealous of Godric's arms around my Sookie.

What the fuck is wrong with me and how the hell did she get over there with out us seeing her fucking move? Before we could acknowledge what she did he asks

"Little one did you just pop? Thank you for you gift I am forever in your debt. My life is yours. Do you know how to share your gifts or did you do it by instinct?"

He releases her to return to us. She sits down on both our laps as she thinks about it. I can't seem to keep my hands off of her when she's near me. She finally answers is a tiny voice.

" Instinct I think. Oh Godric I was so scared when I saw what happened to you both times in my head and on tape. I just couldn't stand it if something had happened to you. You've been so nice to me and all. I'm just so happy that your okay an all. "

Leaning up against the entrance way. Godric shoves his hands down in his pockets looking thoughtful he states.

" You all are progressing at a far faster rate than I or any one thought would be possible. I am now unsure as to how long it will take for your full transformation.

I understand that you and your brother passed out. While this is only speculation on my part but I believe that your bodies will need fuel to use your magic.

Food is what you fuel your body with. With Jason being detained and you so upset I believe that your bodies simply ran out of fuel causing you to lose conciseness. "

Hell I hope that's all it is. I know for a damn fact Sooks been eating just not as much as she normally does. Claude chimes in.

" He is correct Fae magic alone burns a lot of fuel as we learn to control our magic. I would guess that so does most types of magic. You both should always make sure that you eat often."

I can feel the guilt pouring off of Tinker bug. How in the hell am I feeling her? After a long silence Eric looks up asks purposefully changing the subject.

" Are the guards in place? Have our other guests arrived and been seen to their quarters? "

" Yes the vampire guards are guarding the perimeter, and the weres arrived with our guests and a surprise gate crasher, I think you saw him just as you left.

They have all been seen to their rooms. The Fae are guarding the house for now until everything is settled and I can assign duties. The demons will stay on call for now.

They have orders that any deliveries are to be thoroughly searched and then distributed.. Good call on bringing your friends all here so we could watch over them.

There was a small skirmish at the gate with your friends, when a Mr. Compton tried to sneak onto the compound amidst the chaos.

It is unclear if the weres were after your friends or if they were being used as a diversion for him to gain access to our compound. Rest assured we will find out. CC and Aley are detaining him and our other prisoners.

Jackson is going to interro... question the weres while CC, Aley and myself will see what we can learn from the rest.

I will leave Mr. Compton to you Eric and Alc. As I believe he is here for Sookie. As of right now no one down here will leave the confines within these walls.

I have changed the pass codes and no one will be able to leave, there are escape tunnels leading to the interrogation rooms through the library.

Janice your little one was asleep when he arrived and along with Jackson, the rest of the weres and guests are going to be staying upstairs. They are also locked in, for their own protection.

He is going to try to explain what is going on everyone and when your boy wakes. We may need one of you to help calm your friends. When we grabbed them they were a little frightened.

Also a Tara and Sam I believe, said the funeral arrangements will be set for two weeks from now. They are having difficulty transporting a Mrs. Stackhouse's body.

You may talk to them about it tomorrow in the office unless they will need further calming. I believe that is everything."

Fucker. I bet Tara gave at least one of my pack a black eye for snatching her up. I guess I should of given them a little heads up as to whats happening. Oh well.

Why in the hell would that Compton be trying to sneak onto this property in the middle of a fucking fight. What's that ass hole want with my Sookie.

I look at Eric and I can see the same fucking questions running through his eyes. He wants answers as bad as I do, and there's just one person that will be able to give them to us. I ask.

"Sookie will you be alright if Eric and I both go have a talk with Mr Compton?"

" Yes of course I will. Please both of you just be careful."

I give her waist a squeeze and kiss her cheek standing her up onto her feet. She grabs Eric into a hug and I chuckle at his startled expression before he returns the hug.

We follow Godric out of the room. We walk down to the library though a panel and hidden door. We go down a tunnel towards a row of doors stopping in front of one. He tells us,

" Get everything you can out of him that you can. We have more enemies than I first thought. All of them coming at us from different directions far faster than I expected.

With the Druids showing up at the same time as the elves I am most worried. Someone wants to stop the prophecy from having a chance to play out.

We know Druids are only hired guns but for who we don't know. The elves could be working by themselves or hired out as well. We need to know all our enemies..

Report what you find out. Destroy him after your sure you have gotten it all. You know as much right now as I do. "

Then in a whoosh of air he was gone. Eric opens the steel door and light come on in the room. We go in I turn to close it and lock it.

He and I say nothing as we strip. Me out of my clothes, him his towel. The smell of burning flesh and blood hits my nose and I gag. Eric hits a switch and the toxic air clears and it becomes easier for me to breath.

I look over and I see a average looking vampire who looked to have been turned in his forties. He has these silver clamps in his eyes that the Doctors use for eye surgery. He can't close his eyes no matter how bad he wants too.

One wall has a torture table another wall has every kind of torture instruments available with a floor to ceiling mirror behind it.

All this is placed straight across from where Compton is being detained. All in plain sight so he can watch everything being done to him. Inventive I'll give Godric that.

On the last wall where we entered from has the door and a shower to clean up afterward. I have sat in on a few were interrogations. But nothing to this magnitude.

I can practically feel my blood lust starting. I watch Eric pick up what looks like a silver coated razor to shave his chest.

Eric saunters up to a naked Compton chained in silver on the far wall He already looks like the guards had fun chaining him. Eric starts in while I have a look at everything around me.

The screams are deafening and the smell is horrendous even with the exhaust fan running. Eric finishes with that and picks up a paint brush and a bottle of colloidal silver.

He walks back over as I lean against the table. With out looking at me he asks me.

" Alc, did you know that I was a painter? What do you think I should paint?"

I smirk at Compton who's eye's are full of fear at the idea of being painted on. I suggest.

" I think maybe an ocean scene. You were a viking, so maybe a longboat... at sea... in a storm perhaps? Do you think you have enough canvas?'

" Oh yes there is plenty of room if I use his back too. If not then I can just scrape off this layer of skin and start all over. Isn't that right Billy boy."

The smell of his blood is already fucking thick in the air and we have barely gotten started. My animal instincts are fighting to get out as I hear Eric start taunting.

" Billy. I denied your request to return to your ancestral home, over a month ago yet here you are. I smelled you all around my lovers home. Why are you here..."

"You mean he was one of the fucking vampers around my Sookie's home. Aw hell no. Let me at that cocksucker!"

A/N THIS IS MY FIRST FIGHT SCENE SO I HOPE IT MADE SENSE. WILL PICK UP THE INTERROGATION IN ERICS POINT OF VEIW. DRUIDS ARE LIKE BRILINGTONS. I THINK I COVERED EVERYTHING. MAYBE SOME ALC AND ERIC IN BLOOD LUST. ANY QUESTIONS P.M. ME
