          "HE'S COMING! HE'S COMING! HE'S COMING!"

Tara kept on chanting as if she was in some sort of trance, holding onto the large egg she had placed within the nest on gran's bed. Sookie was trying to calm her down whereas all Dakota could do was stare at the blacks of Lafayette's eyes as he stepped closer toward her. Sookie ran after Tara as she and Eggs disappeared out into the hall.

"Lafayette, sweetie?" she tried, but there was no recognition on his face as he stared at her. "I'm your best friend. I know you're in there somewhere. You don't want to do this."

Prepare her for Bromios, prepare her for Eleutherios, prepare her -

"Take off your clothes," he ordered, taking a threatening step towards her.

"What?" she frowned, trying to get into his head. "Listen to what you're saying."

He shot her a glare before he screamed in her face, "Take off your fucking clothes!"

He had seen her naked before, hell they'd taken baths before together but this was different. It made her uncomfortable, not because it was Lafayette, but because it wasn't entirely him and she wouldn't know what he'd do under Maryann's spell. Hesitantly she unbuttoned the front of her dress and let it fall to the floor, standing in only her underwear.

He hummed, satisfied as he took her in before reaching behind him and holding out thin white material to her. It looked like a wedding gown and he pushed it in her hands. "Put this one." His eyes never left hers as she did what she was told, though she could zip it up herself.

"Let's go." he grabbed her arm, pulling her from the room and taking her down the stairs.

"Ah!" screamed Jane. "Get down here. We're waiting for you!"

As Dakota rounded the corner with Lafayette still holding onto her, her eyes widened. Sookie was being held down by Eggs, terrified. Tara, Arlene and Jane wore white dresses of their own as they danced around the trashed living room. Tara placed a crown on a brunette's head and as she glanced up, she saw the Dakota enter the living room.

"You're here." she smiled and pulled her veil from her face, wearing gran's wedding dress like she owned the thing. It was Maryann, she guessed even though she had never met the creature before. "Just in time."

"What the hell are you doing in my grandmothers wedding dress?"

"Welcome, Dakota." she waltzed toward her. "I've been waiting for you to come back to me. Ever since you disappeared on me in the woods all i've wanted was to smell you again. And now, you're going to be my maid of honor."

"You're insane!" sneered Sookie from where Eggs was holding her. "Let us go."

"I've just borrowed you." Maryann shrugged, as Tara put more flowers in her flower crown. "To go along with old, new and blue over here."
