"You're a WHAT?!"

Sookie stood up, "Jason! Calm down or you're gonna wake the whole town!"

Jason looked at Sookie and tried to keep calm before looking at Riley.

"If-If you're what you say you are… How did you become what you are?" Jason asked
"I don't know, Jason… My parents never told me anything." Riley replied
"Well, technically, a vampire's dead.. So.. Their sperms would have to be dead too, right?" Jason said

As soon as those words came out of Jason's mouth, Riley became speechless.

Sookie smacked her brother on the arm, "Jason Stackhouse! Don't be so crude!"

Jason looked at Riley, "I'm sorry, Ri."

Riley shook her head, "That's alright. I've been wondering that myself."

"So what are we going to do now?" Jason asked

"The only thing that is on my mind now is finding answers." Riley replied

Sookie smiled at the two of them, "And I know just where to find them."

Sookie, Riley and Jason arrived at Fangtasia within half an hour.

"What are we doing here, Sook?" Jason asked
"We need to help Riley find some answers. So, where's the best place to get some vampire answers?" Sookie said

The three of them looked at the sign of the bar before looking at the people and vampires loitering outside.

"Let's just quickly get this over with." Riley said

Sookie nodded and led the other two towards the entrance. They pushed open the door to see Fangtasia as it normally was every other night. Vampires and humans chatting each other up like a scene from an ordinary night club.

The three of them made their way to the bar and Sookie leaned towards the counter.

"Hi Tara." Sookie said, "Is Pam in?"

Tara glared at Sookie before looking at Riley and Jason, "Why do you need to see Pam?"

"It's personal.." Riley said
"You want to be a vampire?" Tara said
"Excuse me?" Riley said

"The only reason you have Sookie by your side looking for Pam is because she needs you to be turned into a vampire." Tara said, "At least that's what she did with me."

Sookie sighed, "Please Tara.. Is Pam here?"

"She's in the back." Tara said, before going back to cleaning the glasses.

Sookie half-smiled, "Thanks Tara."

The three of them went through the door by the bar towards the back room where Pam was. Sookie knocked on the door once before opening it. The first thing Riley saw was the lady with blond hair sitting at her desk, counting bills.

She looked up before giving them a slightly annoyed look, "Oh. It's you. What do you want?"

"We need your help." Sookie said
"I told you before. No more favors." Pam said
"We don't need you to do anything. We just need you to answer questions." Jason said
"And why would I do that?" Pam said
"Because it's really important." Sookie said

Pam looked at the three of them, "Not interested."

"Please help, Pam." Sookie said, "We only need to know about half-vampires."

Pam continued counting her bills, "They are just legend."

"Do you know how they are made?" Riley asked

Pam looked at Riley, "Who are you?"

"My name's Riley." She said

Pam ignored her and looked at Sookie, "Why do you want to know?"

The three of them hesitated as they were thinking if they should or should not tell her.

Pam stopped counting her bills and said, "If you don't want to tell me, then don't waste my time."

She gestured for them to leave and Riley decided that it was now or never.

"I'm a half-vampire." Riley said

Pam stood up and using her inhuman speed, had Riley pinned on her back against the wall with her hand around Riley's neck. Pam was about to give Riley a piece of her mind when she caught her scent. It wasn't like any human's scent. It was different.

Pam let her go immediately and Riley slid down the wall, coughing.

"What the fuck!" Jason exclaimed

"What the hell, Pam?!" Sookie scolded, "You could have killed her!"

Despite Sookie's continuous effort to scold Pam, it was failing on her. Pam looked like she was in a trance.

"It cannot be." Pam whispered

In a second, Pam snapped out of her self-induced trance and looked at the Stackhouse siblings.

"It is not safe here." Pam said, "You two need to get her out of here now."

"We're not leaving this place until we get some answers." Jason said
"And if you don't leave this place now, you won't even be alive to get any answers." Pam said

Finally understanding, they started to make their way out. As they left, Pam stopped Sookie.

"I'll be at your house in one hour."
