Eric Northman Imagines

Next Halloween

"You know if we don't make it out of whatever we're getting into we'll miss Halloween." You grumbled nervously as you trailed after Sookie with hesitant steps. Tara was more than a few feet behind you, pointing out that she agreed with the weird vibe you'd commented on. "I think it's weird you don't know what they look like." Tara pointed out.

"I really don't think we should go anywhere on the orders of a masked maniac." You popped up as Sookie turned around.

"We don't know he's a masked maniac, he approached me at a Halloween party and was in costume." Sookie pointed out and your frowned.

"When has anyone supernatural related not been a maniac?" Tara pointed out as the three of you reached the clearing you'd been told to go to. Or rather Sookie had been invited too.

"Y'all are just worrying for nothing I'm sure he's perfectly friendly." Sookie said chipperly.

"I've seen enough horror movies to know that any weirdo wearing a mask is never friendly." You said as a shiver crawled down your back. "This feels weird and that is not helping." You said as you gestured to a creepy looking warehouse that was sat alone in the middle of the woods.

"Maybe we should go back." Sookie muttered. She turned to face you both and gasped, two vampires stood behind you and Tara, covering your mouths as the bared their fangs.

"Happy Halloween." The masked man drawled as he grabbed Sookie.

***************************************************

The night passed by as you, Tara and Sookie sat together, scared and confused as to what was going on. "How long do you think they'll keep us down here?" You asked quietly.

"I don't know. But it can't be too long, Bill will have been looking for me." Sookie pointed out.

Looking down at your hands you wondered if you boss would even notice you weren't at work. Eric didn't seem overly fond of humans other than Sookie, although Bill wasn't entirely sure she was human.

"Someone will look for us." You said as calmly as you could.

"Yeah. Lafayette will certainly come looking for us if no one else does!" Tara insisted. You all fell quiet when shouts came from upstairs. Crashing and scraping could be heard and at one point thick liquid oozes through the ceiling.

"Something killed a vampire." Sookie whispered. She carefully stepped towards the rickety stairs and looked towards the door. "We could see if we can get out."

"Or we wait for whatever killed them to go away." Tara offered up. She yanked Sookie back when a blur rushed into the room, smashing its way through the door.

"Eric!" You said when he stopped, glancing around to see if there were any other threats.

"We need to hurry, Pam and Bill are dealing with the other vampires, Jason's waiting in the truck." Eric said quickly, Sookie and Tara rushed to the stairs while Eric lifted you over his shoulder.

"I am able to walk, shouldn't you help others as well?" you grumbled to Eric who didn't answer.

You were rushed into Jason's truck and hurried back to Fangtasia, where Sam and Lafayette were waiting, in a blur. Once things calmed down Tara went home after checking you and Sookie were ok.

Pam presented you with a pumpkin shaped bucket filled with candy, there was something in the way she smiled and the disheveled state of the bucket that made you wonder if she'd stolen it from an unsuspecting child. "There's only 365 days left until next Halloween!" You said which made Sookie laugh, despite the night you'd just endured.

"With this lot everyday is Halloween." Jason muttered as he sipped from a beer.
