From Bad to Worse

~Several hours later~ As Eric prepared a few things in his car, mostly emergency things a vampire, spare blood, a special made body bag for sleeping in, and a silver detector his phone rang. He blinked, looked at the caller ID he sighed "Violet I do not have..." he stopped. Violet was panicked, in a way he'd never heard her. Through her frantic talk he made out her message. Gunfire; at the club. It was then he sensed Pam. Something was wrong. Pain, bad pain. He growled and hung up, things seriously COULD NOT get any worse now..

I dialed Eric's number and waited for him to answer

Eric growled. Seriously he was about to crush his cell phone at this point. He answered "Northman.."

‎"Eric, it's Bill. Jessica is in trouble. I sensed her pain and know something has happened to her. I rushed over to Merlotte's and she is gone. Do you think the authority has taken her because of Nan? Where are you? What should we do?"

Eric swore under his breath "Great. I sensed Pam's pain not to long ago. She was at the Bar and I got a call from my employee that there was gunshots at my Bar. This smells more of Russell to me... the Authority wouldn't be using guns on vampires, too crass even for them. We need to find our progenies and now Bill. Who knows how they will be tortured for information on us"

Bill grabbed his phone harder in his hands, almost breaking it "Who knows that the authority would do anymore? We definately need to find them now. Where are you? We need to figure this out and get them back from whoever it is. If it is Russell, I will definately kill him this time"

"I'm at my Cabin. As much as I hate to admit this, we may need to stick together for a while. Divided we're an easy target for the Authority or Russel" he said as he closed the trunk of his car. "I can drive over to the manor and we can plan our moves from there. We need to retrace Pam and Jessica's steps.. "

Closing his eyes and fighting back the feelings he was having and remain calm, he replied "Ok. I am going to head over there now and we can talk strategy when we get there. We need to be careful though, since we don't know who is behind this, we need to be expecting anything."

*He nodded* "I'll be there shortly" *he said before hanging up and driving out to the manor*
