Sookie P.O.V

I woke up on my bed as Maria watched. She was happy to see me up & had a tray of food ready. She told me everything that had happened since the bridge. After hours of being unconscious, I understood why she was worried. I was so happy to be out of that horrible memory.

I quickly scarfed down some snacks & a pitcher of water. With my energy up, I followed her downstairs to the living room. Jason & Claude were waiting. Jason gave me a big hug before I sat down & recapped the vision. 

"But, it's impossible. Fairies cannot make contact with vampires." Claude quivered

"I know I can't even read their thoughts." I agreed

"This is. This is fucked! You psychically bonded to a vampire." He panicked

"Why did we even try it?" He muttered

"Cuz you said it was okay. The special powers. Nature's got a frozen memory. Remember?!" Jason snapped

"Yes, I know but I didn't think that we'd make some sort of connection to a fucking vampire!" Claude argued

"The Elders gonna be furious about this." He worried

"I don't give a twirly fuck about your elders. What I care..." Jason insulted

"Jason William Stackhouse!" Maria growled, shutting him up mid-rant

"Claude has a good reason to be freaking out. All of us are on edge. But, right now his arse is in the hot seat." She scolded him

"Fairies are an endangered species thanks to dark species like vampires & demons. Our fae line is ancient with barely any members left. Sookie's connection is something to worry about." She explained

"Claude tell the Elders this was my idea if they give you crap. I'd like to see them try to take the high ground after Maude." She consoled

"We still need to find this vampire & make him pay for what he did." Jase huffed

"And we will, we just must be cautious." Claude agreed

"You saw Claudine?" He asked 

"Yes. She said...leave the girl alone. And then she zapped me." I replied, impersonating Claudine

I went back into a trance again. Jason, Maria & Claude's argument muffled & faded away. I was back in the vision on a loop of Claudine's entrance. I kept replaying it to hear the words before her warning. I finally heard a name after a few rewinds.

"Wait!" I interjected, getting everyone to hush

"Claudine called me by my name. Not my name the vampire's name. She called him Warlow." I shared

"Does Warlow mean anything to you?" I asked

"No. But clearly, Claudine knew who he was." Claude replied

"Luckily, she can still talk. My siblings can reach her faster." Maria planned

"Thank you, Claude. Hopefully, this is the last time we'll need your help." She thanked

Claude eagerly left for the club. He teleported from our porch. Jason was in full overprotective mode. Maria made up the guest bed for him. I laid out on my bed as I tried to process everything. But, everything was too crazy as usual.

"Hey, you ok?" Maria asked as she leaned in the doorway

"Not really." I sighed as she approached the bed

"I'm sorry your life didn't get simpler." She said as she stroked my head

"Why would it?" I groaned
