New Orleans Vampire Royal Estate

A woman in her twenties with straight black hair dressed in gothic clothing is holding Sookie's hand as they run together in the underground passage looking for a way out. Vampire grabbers napped Sookie and her Adopted sister Herja Snowridge right out of their Gran's farmhouse. As far as they knew no one knew they were kidnapped. They had no idea how long they were at wherever they were now. Herja was Sookie's height and size, but her hair was straight and black and her eyes were glacier blue. Sookie was sun kissed, but Herja was snow kissed. Her skin and eyes so pale despite being so warm all the time. They turned down a long hall and the alarms went off.

"Shit!" Sookie said frustrated that the captors knew of their escape attempt.

Herja pulled Sookie behind her and up against a corner protecting her and said, "I guess the guard was a vampire. Sookie put your arms around me and don't let go understand?"

"You're gonna burn people aren't cha?" Sookie asked as she did what Herja told her.

"Got any better ideas? I know you don't want to die like a lamb. So we go out like a lion ok? When they get close let out your light and I'll release my black flames to protect us." Herja said as her skin started to glow.

Meanwhile Godric heard the alarm and turned to Eric and said, "Where is the location?"

"The processing tunnels it seems. I was unaware we needed knew pets." Eric said confused and upset.

"We don't. Someone broke my rules. We need to find them before their buyer does." Godric said as he got off of his chair in his office and Eric followed behind him. Eric handle all security in the estate Godric took over when he killed Sophie Ann and became king of Louisiana. Eric pointed the guards away from the tunnel entrance as Godric and he sped down the tunnel towards the sounds of screaming.

Soon they arrive to a pile of ashes and a gothic girl with black eyes covered in black flames protecting a blonde girl that glowed with fairy light. They smelt of honey and fruit, the smell of other realm creatures long forgotten. Eric was confused, he never seen anything like this. Godric however knew. He held up his hands in a peaceful gesture and said, "I am sorry that you were taken against your will and mine own. I did not order this. But seeing your powers I know why they came after you and sought to hide you in my home. I am the king known to not take humans for treasures to covet. I am Godric An Bas King of Louisiana, please lower your lights."

Sookie dropped hers first then held onto Herja tired. Herja eyed the two. The boy Godric held himself like a vampire with age behind the teenage face and hazel eyes. The tall Viking was cold like his blue eyes, poised to carry out Godric's orders, she knew this. He would be stronger then any other his age. He was built for war and he did nothing to hide the fact. What made Herja nervous was the deathly clam that surrounded Godric. He felt like death was his companion. The boyish charm did not fool her at all if he had a dangerous vampire following his orders. Herja glared at them knowing it was pointless and turned her eyes back to Glacier blue and pulled her black flames back into her body. Sookie started to step out from behind her when Herja stopped her shaking her head. They seem to exchange a conversation, if their looks they exchanged were any sign to go by.

Herja looked back at Godric and said, "I can't talk out here. It's not safe. I wish to invoke Parlay. I know you vampires taught the pirates this code with others."

Godric nodded and said, "We will negotiate our terms in my office. It is sound proof. As per terms of parlay no one in my state will harm you until we reach a deal with new terms agreed upon and sealed in blood. Savvy?"

"Agreed Vampire. Lead the way king." Herja said as Godric nodded and turned to lead them to his office. Eric walked behind the pair that still held hands as they followed behind Godric. Eric wondered as a deviant smirk slowly spread across his face and a playful twinkle glistened in eyes. His gait took on more of a swagger as he asked, "Are you two lovers?"

Herja and Sookie heads snapped back and glared at Eric and said in unison, "We are sisters pervert!"

Eric only smiled more and Godric chuckled at his antics. Sookie looks at Godric and asked, "Does he do this often?"

"Sex is my child's favorite subject and activity. It is on his mind half the time. He is only joking to lighten the mood." Godric said as the reached the main hall. He then lead them upstairs to his private office. The office had two plush chairs facing a large wooden black walnut desk and chair. Godric sat at his desk and Eric stood next to him with his hands behind his back. With Herja and Sookie sitting down and the door closed, Godric nodded to Eric who reached towards the wall and flipped a switch. Herja grasped her head in pain and Sookie reached for her. Eric quickly flipped the switch and apologized.

Herja uncovered her ears and looked up. Godric tensed, she was bleeding from her nose. Sookie took a tissue Eric gave her and wiped off the blood. Herja nodded that she was ok. She looked at Godric and said, "My hearing is more sensitive then both of yours. You had no idea anything would happened and I was not prepared."

"What are you?" Eric asked and Herja looked at him. Godric held up his hand to stop Eric's thousands of questions. He knew that curious look in his eyes. Godric said, "I know what you are and some one else does as well. But let me ask you? What is a fire demon, a dark fire fairy doing with a light fairy? Nether of you are related. Yet, you act like siblings. Please explain this since it is becoming clear both of you will need my protection."

Herja and Sookie shared looks and Sookie sighed in surrender. Herja turned back to Godric and said, "When Suzy, or Sookie as she prefers to be called, was four years old, my uncle the demon lawyer Mr. Desmond Cataliades was called by my father Arioch and Sookie's great grandfather Niall Brigant the fairy prince. It seems that Sookie's parents were getting scared of Suzy. Niall wanted someone to protect her from everything. My father told them about me and my gifts. So they casted magic on me and I became four with all my powers and knowledge intact. They made Sookie's parents think they adopted me as godparents. But I'm still a fairy just a dark one. There is a war in fairy and they sealed the fairy door leaving us to protect each other."

"That explains the scent. You are full dark Fae aren't you?" Godric said as he leaned back in his chair. Eric started sniffing the air. His eyes dilated and his fangs slid down. Godric appeared behind Eric and grasped him on his shoulder. Godric said, "As your maker I command you not to drain them or cause harm."

"Master, I am… I must go…" Eric said snapping out of his bloodlust and fleeing in shame.

"Is he ok?" Sookie asked concerned about Eric.

"He is a thousand years old and never has he lost control last he did tonight. Eric does not handle emotions well. He needs to be alone to process tonight's events." Godric said as he looked at both Sookie and Herja.

"How old are you?" Herja asked.

"I'll answer if you tell me how old you really are?" Godric said as he looked over to Herja with a slight smile.

"I swear Vampires. Fine I am 1500 years old. Normally I look like I'm Sookie's age. Dark Fae age slowly." Herja said as rolled her eyes in frustration.

"I am 2000 years old, Herja." Godric said still holding a slight smile on his youthful face.

"Well Parlay. So I know we cannot go home now. I need help protecting Sookie. I am willing to offer my gifts and I will give you some of my blood. Since you are so malnourished." Herja said as Godric stiffened. Herja saw him grip his chair arms. Herja stood up and walked around the desk with his eyes following her. Herja sat on his desk facing Godric. Godric looked up at her still tense and said, "I can't be trusted. You two smell better then anything I have smelt in my whole existence. I could drain you in seconds."

Herja sat down on Godric's lap and he dug in nails into the wood of his armrests. Sookie came over and sat on Godric's desk and said, "Herja's right. You can't protect us if you are starving. She knows what she is offering."

"Well Godric do have a deal?" Herja asked.

"You women will be the death of me. We are agreed." Godric said.

Notes: I am unsure who to pair with whom. Feedback would be great.
