Chapter 9

"Of course, ask away" she waved dismissively, settling her back against the couch as she tilted her head in Isabel's direction. She had to admit, she was curious.

"How old were you when you were turned-sorry if that is rude of me" Isabel quickly apologised when she realised how rude that must have sounded. She was relieved when Luna didn't seem to care either way, most vampires being extremely touchy about their pasts and especially about their ages.

"Much like in Godric's times age was not accounted for, but I believe myself to be around the age of 16, maybe 17" she stated matter-of-factly, Isabel relieved that she didn't seem to take offence. "You have more" Luna noted, Isabel nodding sheepishly but asked her next question when Luna gestured for her to do so.

"Urm...did you make any other children?" she asked curiously, gaining more confidence in her questions when Luna didn't seem bothered by her interest. Hell, she seemed amused if anything.

At this Godric perked up even if his face didn't show it. He selfishly hoped that she had not created another in the time they had parted even though he had created Eric for companionship. He was aware that he was being unfairly hypocritical, but that didn't change the way he felt about the touchy subject.

"No, Godric was my first, I will not be making anymore" she stated. "He was an...exception" she added as an afterthought, gazing at him fondly with a soft smile which he returned. It was then Eric also quickly clued in on the conversation when he maker was mentioned, finding it of pure interest since he knew nothing of his makers own transformation.

"Could I ask you about when you met him, we don't know anything" Isabel asked nervously, fiddling with her hands as Luna tilted her head a fraction before her eyes flickered over to Godric.

"Why the secret?" she mumbled under her breath, the others straining to hear but finding it impossible to pick up on it.

"It was too painful my belle" was all he mumbled back, hearing her perfectly while the others couldn't.

Luna could tell it frustrated Eric no end, what with him used to being one of the most powerful in the room, but she did not comment. Raising her hand in a silent gesture to summon him to her he was immediately at her side, both of them moving too quick for anyone to see as Luna soon found herself settled in Godric's arms.

"I had been travelling, it was sometime in the first century B.C when I visited a country which had back then been called Gaul. They worshiped the elements" she stated, her fingers lightly running over her childes left arm as she touched the marking which was the symbol for water. She looked at Godric with a raised brow, it wasn't just her story to tell after all and she would not tell them of his life if he did not want it.

"I was captured as a small boy by a Roman army which had invaded our lands," he swallowed. "I was then brought back to Rome and later sold as a slave to a roman master. He was sadistic, cruel and enjoyed inflicting physical, emotional and sexual abuse on me as I grew into a teenager.

"It was when I turned to what I believe to around 16 or 17 much like Luna that he branded me horribly, a possessive sign that I was his" Godric continued, neither of the ancients having a single expression on their faces as they watched the others faces contort with emotions as they were captured in the story of his life. Some were shocked, sickened, as well proud of their sheriff, his past only causing their respect to only strengthen for him.

"How did you meet my sire then Luna?" Eric asked, shocking everyone with his question since Godric had left a pause as his memories resurfaced. He could feel Luna pushing comfort and love through their bond; he was thankful she had taken the time in the past to heal him from his painful human life.

"As I said before I was travelling when I became entranced you could put it, the harsh yet sweet scent of blood filtering into my scenes" she started before Sookie interrupted, gaining a number of glares from everyone who was intrigued.

"Godric's?"

"Oh course" Luna replied in a slightly patronising tone, making Sookie feel as if she was nothing more than an idiot for speaking.

"Sorry" she mumbled before shunning back, Bill wrapping his arm around her but his eyes stayed on the couple.

"I followed the scent only to come across the sounds of pain, a part of me regrets not getting there in time to prevent such a scar marking his skin, yet him receiving it captured my attention. It burned deep, yet he barely made a noise as the sound of burning skin could be heard by my sensitive hearing. He was a warrior, I wanted him to be mine" she stated, running her fingers absently over the circular scar on his shoulder. She did regret not reaching him in time, but she feared that he would not have captured her attention so vividly if she had not seen how strong willed he was.

"What happened to your master?" Stan asked, Godric tilting his head in his direction as a sadistic and cruel smile appeared on his lips. It was a first for them all except for Eric who had become accustomed to it in the past, it struck fear through them all but Luna though.

"It was the following night when my belle appeared, I was healing though I doubted I would have survived due to infection and such. It was a miracle that I had not already caught a virus of some sort. I called her my angel, my saviour as she appeared to me, asking if I wanted a second chance, to never feel weak again. I took it without hesitation." He stated, remembering the fond memory of seeing her for the first time. She was his saviour, his angel, his god.

"When I rose I was violent and aggressive, enough so that I regretfully killed many in search of my previous master in a need for revenge. I could not find him though" he stated, everyone entranced by the story.

"So he got away with it?" Sookie asked, she wasn't for death but to hear what such a kind and gentle boy had been through sickened her. She wanted Godric's human master to be dead, she needed it to keep the nightmares which she knew she would be plagued with tonight away.

"No. It was a year until I could control my rage, in that time I slaughtered many" he stated, feeling Luna's nails raking through his hair in a soothing manner.

He could remember how he bathed in blood, how Luna had let him but made sure he knew she was his sire, his maker, his master. He had resented her at first, thinking he had been given a second chance only to get a worse life. How he had been wrong, she had let him work out his rage only for him to come running back to her, craving her presence and guidance.

"So what happened?"

"It was a gift she called it, using it as incentive for me to learn our ways. I didn't know what she had promised I would receive, only that I wanted it. It turned out to be my human master; he paid for his sins" he stated vaguely, the things he had done to him were horrific and barbaric but he did not regret it. Luna had helped him with his revenge, his control, his past all in the first year. She was an amazing vampire, he couldn't and wouldn't have asked for her not to have been the one to change him.

"How?" Sookie asked, wanting to know.

"That is a story not for you young one, I do not wish to plague your mind with nightmares of my past" Godric stated, Sookie trying not to retort back as she kept quiet.

The room was completely silent for what seemed like hours for Sookie while it was only twenty minutes until it was broken, Stan being the one to break it.

"So how were you changed?" he asked curiously, Luna's expression not changing though Godric's eyes narrowed in Stan's direction.

"That is one not for the faint hearted I am afraid, perhaps another time when we don't have the company of naïve human" she stated carelessly, Stan biting his lip and diverting his eyes as not to laugh out loud at her comment. The fact she not only singled out Sookie but insulted her in the same breath causing most of the vampires to have to look away as not to show the amusement in their gaze.

Sookie found herself glaring at the comment, though a rough squeeze from Bill kept her mouth shut. She hated to admit it but if it was any worse than Godric's then it was probably a good idea for her not to hear it, but it didn't mean it didn't make her even more curious. Like she said, she wouldn't admit it.

"I look forward to it" Isabel smiled, now completely intrigued with the girls story. It must be fascinating, hearing about how someone so old came to be. The things she must have seen...she couldn't wait.
