Chapter 13:

I couldn't sleep the first day I spent in Sookie's home or more precisely in Eric's old cubby where I now resided.

It was annoying to lie alone in the darkness with the only light coming from lamps, but it was too dangerous for me to go outside and especially when Sookie wasn't home.

Like right now.

She'd gone to steal some of Bill's Tru Blood bottles and would hopefully return soon, because I was so hungry that I could literally eat a horse… or perhaps a werewolf or two.

But I soon had company as I heard the sound of a car drive up to the house and it wasn't Sookie's old car, but another and newer one.

I instinctively sat up in the bed and listened carefully as someone walked around the house, trying to find an open window or door they could get through.

Whoever it was, then it was someone who were looking for something or more like someone. I crawled up the ladder and quietly opened one of the doors, spotting an unfamiliar man in the living room, who was wearing a ring I did recognize.

It was a ring that all male members of the Fellowship of the Sun bore, which meant that they were sent to find and probably also kill me.

But if they knew that I was here, then it wouldn't be long before the Authority knew it too and then… then I would definitely be killed.

I waited until the two men had gone upstairs before I snuck out of the cubby. When I was finally outside in the bright daylight I transformed into a dog, running as fast as I could to Merlotte's where I could get help from Sookie's friends.

If they wanted to help me.

I was halfway at the restaurant when I suddenly sensed that someone was following me and decided to hide in the woods, transforming into a fox instead and trying to blend in with the other animals.

However, that wasn't enough to shake my follower away and as I hid behind a bush I was suddenly tackled by another fox that looked strangely familiar to me.

"Father?" I said, looking confusedly at him.

"Samara, you do not have to hide with the faerie. Come with me and I will protect you. I will make the vampires pay for what they did to you and against our race." he said.

"But I can't let you kill every vampire in this country! If you must kill someone then kill Russell!"

My father growled and shook his head. "I have hated the vampires for a very long time and I have had enough of them taking over our territory. Soon they will all fall and you will return at once where you rightfully belong!"

I shook my head and transformed back into a dog, leaving him in the woods and hurrying to Merlotte's even faster than before.

This time I arrived without being followed by my father and snuck in through the back, sneaking past Lafayette in the kitchen and into the dining area where Sam was.

He seemed to recognize me immediately as he signed for me to follow him into his office and placed his coat over me before I transformed back to my nude form.

"Sara, where have you been? Everyone is looking for you and has been asking questions about your disappearance. Are you really part vampire now?" he asked worriedly.

I felt tempted to bite him and drink his blood, but I reminded myself that he was a friend and therefore I forced myself to leave him alone.

"I am, but I don't have much time, Sam. You have to warn Sookie and tell her that someone was at her house today – two men from the Fellowship of the Sun. She should stay with Bill for a while until it's safe for her to go home." I answered.

He frowned. "And what about you? Where will you go?"

I shrugged. "I might have to leave Louisiana. All I do is cause trouble to my friends and the people who care about me."

"You shouldn't leave on your own. You're only 18, Sara. You need our help."

I shook my head. "Please just let her know. I have to go before the Authority finds me here."

Transforming back into a dog I left Merlotte's and disappeared from his sight, leaving Bon Temps in my dog form and searching for another town to live in – one where the Authority, Russell and my father wouldn't look for me in.

I was tempted to go to my mother's home, but I didn't want to bring trouble with me, so I went to Dallas and hoped that I could hide among the many humans and vampires without getting spotted.

I would have to stay at a motel since someone would probably recognize me at Carmilla Hotel. I also made sure to disguise myself when I finally arrived at a motel and pretended to be an ordinary teenage boy until I got inside the room.

I was so tired and exhausted from using my powers all day that I just collapsed on the floor and lay panting, wishing that I didn't have to push myself that hard lately.

But after spending the entire day out in the sun and with an empty stomach it was starting to become more difficult for me to control my hunger and especially when I knew there was a vampire nearby, who sounded like he was busy having sex with a hooker… at least it sounded like they were having sex, but you never really knew with vampires.

I decided to pay them a little visit and more or less barged into the room as the vampire was – not having sex with the woman – but more raping her against her will.

"Well hello, beautiful! Care to join us?" he asked, smirking as his gaze fell on my half-nude body.

"Sure, but just know that I like to play dirty." I answered, jumping on him before he could escape and sinking my sharp teeth into his neck.

The woman fled the room while I continued to drain him for his life force and blood. It felt so good that I wasn't able to stop before he was completely drained and looked like a mummy.

When I finally let go of him I removed his clothes and put them on, then transformed into a man and went into my own room again, feeling more energized than before.

But I didn't get to rest for long before someone suddenly knocked on my door and I immediately dreaded that someone had seen me murder the vampire.

I was about to transform into a mouse, but the door flew open and I saw none other than the leader of the Fellowship – Steve Newlin.

I'd never met him in person, but I knew that he was behind Godric's kidnapping and wanted to sacrifice him.

"Hello, sweetheart! Where do you think you're going?" he asked in a way too kind tone.

I transformed back to my normal form and saw him smirk, obviously because he really was looking for me and had succeeded.

"Let me guess. You're working for Russell, aren't you?" I asked.

"Russell? Oh God no, I would never work for that demon," he answered. "But I hear that you are his progeny and have created lots of trouble lately. Trouble that you must now be punished for."

I snorted. "Go ahead. Try taking me. I'll kill every one of you."

He laughed and made a signal to someone and before I could stop it from happening, I suddenly felt silver being injected into my neck from behind and was temporarily immobilized.

I was still awake when they dragged me out of the room and out to the parking lot, placing me in the trunk of a pickup truck and then taking me somewhere unknown.

It took some time before they finally stopped and moved me to a big church-like building and in that church I saw a couple of other members of the Fellowship, but they weren't humans like the ones I'd seen in Sookie's home.

"Take her to the cross and tie her to it," Steve ordered. "Oh and make sure to tie her up good. I don't want her to escape when she meets the sun."

I was still weak from the silver, but I laughed of Steve anyway, which earned me a weird look from him and his minions.

"What's so amusing, you little leech?" he asked, grabbing me by my throat hard.

"I'm part Nix, you moron! The sun can't burn me to death." I answered, smirking darkly.

I wanted so badly to rip his head off, but until I'd gotten the silver out of my system there was nothing painful I could do right now.

"That might be, but even so then we'll just drive a stake through your heart – that will definitely kill you and then Russell won't have a secret weapon anymore, but first I want you to tell me where Russell Edgington is."

I opened my mouth to say it, but remembered that Russell had ordered me not to tell anyone where he was and was forced to stay quiet.

"Nothing? Well then we'll just have to torture you a bit. Bring in the whip!"

My eyes widened and I tried getting out of their grip, but they took me to a cross at the end of the church and a pair of humans tied me to it tightly with silver chains.

To make sure that I couldn't flee at all they also hammered wooden nails into my hands and feet, but I tried to endure the pain and not show him how much it really hurt.

Steve Newlin was given a six-tailed whip with silver-tipped ends, so that when the tails struck my body I would get severely burned by the tips.

They ripped nearly all my clothes off except for the part that covered my breast and lower body and Steve began playing around with the whip to scare me.

It worked but I tried not to show it.

"Tell me where your damn maker is or I promise you that you will suffer greatly."

"Fuck you, Newlin!"

He growled and whipped me as hard as he could to make me let out a scream of agony that echoed throughout the entire church.

My body slowly healed up where he had struck me, though, so he whipped me two more times before he stopped.

It felt like my body had been stung by a huge bee or lion's mane jellyfish and because of the silver in my system I couldn't heal properly, so my blood dripped down on the floor.

"Confess child and the almighty Lord might spare you from eternal suffering in Hell!" he said.

"If God was so almighty and good as you say, then why do vampires like us exist? You are a vampire like me so therefore you will suffer in Hell too!" I snarled.

"No, child… you see I was turned against my will and the Lord knows that I only wish to get rid of creatures like you. You are not a child of God, but a child of Satan."

I rolled my eyes. "Try saying that to my father. I'm sure he'll spare your life then when he finds out what you've done to me!"

"Silence!" He struck me five more times with the whip and this time I cried tears of blood that I was unable to hold in.

But I could hear Russell calling my name and he told me that he would come rescue me, so I ignored the pain and just tried holding on until he came.

Whatever Russell had wanted me to do indirectly do for him in Bon Temps, then his plans had been ruined by Steve Newlin and I knew that he definitely wasn't going to let Steve get away with this.

"Confess or I will have to send you straight to Hell where you rightfully belong!" he shouted.

"Then do it! Then you'll never know where my maker is!" I snarled daringly.

Of course he didn't do it, but instead he grabbed a rifle from one of his minions and shot me right in my stomach with a wooden bullet, making me scream loud and deafeningly again.

"I will only ask one more time before I make this really painful to you… where is Russell hiding?" he asked firmly.

"I can't tell you where he is because he ordered me not to! But right now I don't fucking care about what he did to me. I really want to kill you and everyone else in this church!" I snarled.

He scoffed. "Very well."

Steve grabbed the whip again and started whipping me repeatedly, ignoring all my screams and cries for mercy and whenever I passed out of exhaustion one of his men would burn me on my forehead with a cross made of silver to wake me up.

Hours seemed to pass by and Steve never stopped torturing me in new ways until morning came and he was forced to rest.

In that time I tried getting some rest too, but the strong sunlight that shone on me was keeping me awake and slowly burned my skin.

It was almost time for the sun to go down again when I sensed that someone released me from the cross, but I was too weak and exhausted to make out who it was.

All I knew was that this man was my savior.

Thanks for reading and please review! ;D
