<a class="postlink" href="http://i1011.photobucket.com/albums/af238/Phoenix_Legend/Twilight%20RP/Untitled.png">[ img ]</a><br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">It had been three months since that horrible afternoon in the forest when Edward told Bella he was leaving her and left this void, this whole in her heart. She closed herself off from her dad, Charlie, her friends everyone in her life. At night living nothing but the night mare over and over, screaming or crying uncontrollable till Charlie came to wake her up. She wasn't sure what to do, at least not without him anymore he had been her whole world, the man/vampire that had saved her from that vicious James, but now because of a stupid accident he left her. Her world was coming to an end around her and she was at the point of thinking she had nothing else to live for, nothing or no one else that could bring her out of this fit of depression.<br/><br/>Charlie was getting worried, his little girl was gone that had come here to live with him and changed his life around for the better. He and his ex-wife didn't know what to do anymore, they were at their wits end what would help and what would only make it worse. They had talked of sending Bella back to Arizona to live with her mom and start over with new friends and a new life, but Charlie really couldn't send her away nor could Renee either knowing how much having Bella there meant to Charlie. But what was he going to do? His girl was falling further and further into this depression and he couldn't stop it.<br/><br/>"Billy I don't know what to do. She is screaming at all hours of the night. Won't leave the house other than to go to school, ignores her friends when they call or come by. Renee and I really don't know what we should do. I worried about her."<br/><br/>Charlie spoke while sitting in Billy Black's house one afternoon while they were watching the game. It gave him time away from Bella since well she didn't seem to talk to him anymore. He was afraid of what could happen if they couldn't pull her out of this state. But he was damn sure he would never forgive Edward for doing this to her, he had trusted that boy. Than to have him break his daughters heart like this and leave them searching for her nearly all night, that had pushed him over the end. Seeing his girl being carried in Sam's arms back to their house looking like she was nothing but an empty shell it hurt him so much.<br/><br/>Running a hand through his hair Charlie sat back on the couch with his eyes closed, even the game was holding no true happiness for him right now. No right now he couldn't think of anything but his daughter sitting at home hurting and not being able to help her.</span><br/><br/><br/>Jacob<br/>"Well Charlie, she is just going through a ruff patch since the Cullen's left town, thank goodness. She well start getting better, don't worry she will get better." Billy told him giving him another beer. She was a teenage girl, she would spring back soom right? "She will be ok Charlie just give her some space." He told his friend encuraginly as the game came back on<br/>_______________________________________________________________________<br/><br/>It had been a little over three months since Jacob talked to Bella but he kept his mind busy on school work, and helping his dad around with stuff around the house. He kind of missed Bella and wished she would come around, but he knew she wouldn't not with that him in her life. He let out a sigh as he walked to the garage and figured he wan't going to see her again, that was ok becuase in a few hours his too friends where coming over and they where going to just hang. He shut the screen door to the house and was walking to his backyard. He didn't know Edward felt three months ago or that Bella was in deppression he had no idea about anyof this at all.<br/><br/><br/>Bella<br/><span style="font-style: italic">Charlie looked back over at Billy, then took the can of beer before turning his attention to the screen. Billy was right she could bounce back right? I mean she could have other relationships what was special about being with the Cullen boy anyhow. If any of them only knew the truth, well other than Jacob. But well he had a reason for knowing what the Cullen's were given who and what his tribe were that is. <br/><br/>"Thanks Billy. Say haven't seen your boy around much. How is Jacob doing these days? Keeping out of trouble."<br/><br/>Trying to think of what to say that didn't bring his mind back to Bella. Bella in the meantime was in her room, like always sitting at her desk trying to reach Alice. But it seemed that when they left, nothing was going to link them with Bella any longer so the one she would turn to for advice was gone as well. A light sigh escaped her lips as she moved to go back downstairs taking a walk outside. Not really paying attention to anyone that spoke to her just kind of off in her own world. Moving to the path beside their house she headed off towards the forest not really for anything in particular just because she wanted too.<br/><br/>Finally reaching the meadows that was one hers and Edwards spot she didn't pay attention to the fact it was now all dead. The purple flowers that once covered the ground and the soft green grass was all replaced by dry, dead earth much like her heart felt. Closing her eyes a moment she tried to hold back the tears that wanted to break out once more. But she had cried so much already she didn't think there was anything left.  But her thoughts shifted when she opened her eyes, catching a brief glimpse of bright red in the trees. Victoria! <br/><br/>Bella turned and took off running into the forest not wanting to stay around and find out what she wanted, hell she knew what that vampire was after it was her. She still blamed Bella for James's death and knew she was going to come kill her now. But who could help her? The Cullens were gone and her father, Jacob and most of Forks didn't know about vampires being real. Though sure Jacob spoke on the beach about the story, but didn't he tell her it was just a story? No all she could do was run and hope Victoria didn't catch her or that she would fall since she was prone to being a klutz.</span><br/><br/><br/>Jacob<br/>Billy looked at Charlie, "Yupp Jacob ha been helping me around the house and store, he's been really good." He told his friend taking a drink of his beer. He looked at the televsion as the game came back on from those dang cammercaials. He cuckled as the team he wanted to win pulled ahead slighly.<br/>---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/>Jacob was now tracking Victoria and was hot on her trail. His brown fur glicened in the sun and his big massive paws carrying him toward Victoria. He sees bright red hair and growls speeding up. He follows but looses the trail and scent after she just disappears. He growls out of anger and walks back to the house. He shifts back to the human form and opens the door to the house and walking into the door. He walks to his beroom still waiting fot his friendsa to come. He lays on this bed and lets out a sigh. That filight blood sucker was starting to piss him off. Wht did she keep coming back and what was she after?<br/><br/><br/>Bella<br/><span style="font-style: italic">Charlie gave his friend a light smile hearing him speak about his son and wished he could say the same about Bella. Though seeing Jacob come in he turned and was gonna say hi, but he seemed a little pissed off so he let him be giving Billy a look. Before shaking his head and trying to finally get back into the game. But right now even the game couldn't draw his attention anymore.<br/><br/>Bella was still running through the forest trying to stay away from Victoria but she knew the vampire could easily catch her, yet she stayed back. Why? Not that she was going to stop and ask anytime soon but as she moved into another clearing there stood three others and she at first ran towards them. Hoping for help.<br/><br/>"Help me please..she...."<br/><br/>Her voice trialed off noticing their skin in the sun and than the eyes and she tripped falling forward into the dirt. Slightly cutting her hand though she ignored it and was moving to get up when something grabbed her hair, a scream came from her lips before she heard a growl. The sadistic laugh of Victoria she knew before hearing her voice.<br/><br/><span style="color: red">"You really make this too easy on me Bella, I was hoping for a little challenge at least considering you were a pet of the Cullens. But oh well without Edward this really is going to be to easy." </span><br/><br/>Her voice soft though it held the hatred she still had for Bella as she moved closer to some of her new born vampires she was creating. He held onto Bella and was twice as strong as any other vampire though not like Bella could jerk away either. Her eyes growing a little wider as Victoria came closer and she was so sure this was it, but than a growl made them all turn. A large black wolf came walking out from the trees along with two others. Victoria and the others seemed stunned and dropping Bella took off. Followed closely behind by the wolves who seemed to just ignore her.<br/><br/>Bella just sat on the ground a moment than rushed off back towards her house, seeing Charlie gone she saw a note. Than quickly dialed up the Blacks, panting and trying to calm down some and figure out how to explain what she just saw to her father.</span><br/><br/><br/>Jacob<br/>The phone rang and Billy answers in, "Hello." He isn't happy she called but Bella was Charlie's daughter and he listened then hanged the phone to Charlie with a frown then glancing at Jacob who was looking at him confused. He left the room and sighed. He went in the living room hearng Charlie talk to Bella. He let out an annoyed sigh and went back to watching the television.<br/>---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/>Jacob heard the phone ring and was about to get it when his had did. He stood there and say his dad's facal expression cahnge, he scrached his head, "Dad who is it?" He asked in a whisper but his dad didn't answer his dad handed the phone to Charlie and left the room, Jacob followed him, "Dad who was that?" but before his dad could answer Charlie said "Bella....Bella calm down, now what happened, what did you see?" Jacob turned around "Bella!" he ran out the door and started running to her house. He reached her house not even slightly out of breath. He knocked on the door and walked in, "Bella?" He called walking inside.<br/><br/><br/>Bella<br/><span style="font-style: italic">Bella sighed some hearing Billy's voice but when he handed the phone to Charlie she was relieved.  Barely hearing as Charlie told her to calm down and explain to him slower. But she did or tried to at least right now.<br/><br/>"I was in the forest and there were wolves, huge wolves after...something. It isn't bears that have been attacking people it's huge wolves."<br/><br/>She knew and was ready for her father to get upset she was in the forest to begin with, but didn't care though wondered if Victoria and the others were still coming or what had happen. Biting her lip some she heard the knock as she was still on the phone before seeing Jacob walking inside and stood there staring back at her best friend. The look on her face wasn't happiness, it was fear, distress and she could hear her heart racing inside her chest, realizing she was still on the phone.<br/><br/>"Dad, Jacob's here I just needed to tell you what I saw...bye."<br/><br/>She hung up hoping he wasn't too upset and walked over slowly to Jacob, surprised to even see him since she had been avoiding people for so long. Even her best friend yet here he was.<br/><br/>"Jake...Jake what are you doing here?"<br/><br/>Nothing else seemed to hit her just yet about him well as far as his physical changes that is her mind was still on the vampires and those wolves.</span><br/><br/><br/>Jacob<br/>Jacob walked over to Bella, "Your dad sounded concerned and well I haven't heard from you in three months are you ok? I mean you kinda droped off the face of the earth so to speak." He told her watching her. He noticed he was kind of shaken up, "Bella are you ok?" He asked her steping closer to her wondering why she was breathing faster then normal and what caused her to have fear in her eyes. He stayed quiet to let her talk but he caught the scent of a vampire.... Victoria! He alnost ran out the door but didn't wan to hurt Bella and couldn't tell her about her being a wolf......not yet. "Hey Bella I'm going to go pick up some food I'll be back." He told her giving her a hug. With that he camly walked out the door and down the street.<br/><br/>When he was far enough away he shifted into his wolf form and ran toward the scent and ran into his pack who was also chaseing the scent. They were right on her tail and Jacob pulled aheard from the rest of the pack, but when she slid to a stop Jacob took it as the pefect moment to kill her, he opened his massive mouth about to bite her when she hit him sending him flying backwards. He hits the ground growls and takes off after her again, catching up with the pack. They chased her to a cliff and they watched as she jumped off it down into a water. The pack looked at eachother and went there own ways.<br/><br/>Jacob ran to get the car went to get the food and smiled seeing Bella was still at her house, He knocked then walked in. "I'm back Bella and I brought food." He told her smiling as he put the food on the table.<br/><br/><br/>Bella<br/><span style="font-style: italic">Bella looked at Jacob as he got closer to her and sighed some though still her thoughts were on the wolves she saw after Victoria and the others. A light breath as she tried to calm herself down and looked away for a moment, hearing him mention about her being gone for so long.<br/><br/>"I'm sorry Jake..I know I haven't been around much and I'm sorry. I never meant to hurt you, it's just...."<br/><br/>She paused a moment before looking back up and trying to think of what to say though knew he was worried, he was her best friend. Trying to bring a smile back over her face and couldn't though finally looked up near the window and explained why she was so scared and upset right now.<br/><br/>"I was in the forest and saw these huge wolves...I mean these weren't bears like dad and them thought they were huge wolves chasing after....something."<br/><br/>Moving slowly when he spoke of needing to go and nodded before she would walk back into the living room and curl up on the couch. Pulling the blanket back around her just wondering what Charlie was going to do about it if anything, he probably didn't even believe her with how she had been lately. Closing her eyes she tried to rest and was before a little time pasted and Jake was back sitting up as he came in and she could smell the food. Smiling a little as she slowly got up and walked over to him looking first to the bag of food than to him and dropping the blanket she moved her arms around his back. Hugging him for now and missing him so much.<br/><br/>"I've missed you so much I know I should of called or come by and I'm so sorry Jake. Your my best friend and I kept you in the dark."</span><br/><br/><br/>Jacob<br/>"That's ok Bella it happens to all of us." He told her hugging her. He thought about to wolves and sighed, "Bella sit down, I need to tell you something." He pullls out a chair to her.<br/><br/>It's just an old scary story. Did you know the Quileutes are supposedly descended from wolves? Well, they're supposedly descended from this, like.. The Cullens well, they're supposedly descended from this, like... â€œenemy clan.â€ ... But they claimed to be different, so we made a treaty with them. If they promised to stay off Quileute lands, we wouldn't expose what they really were to the pale-faces........It's just a story, Bella.<br/><br/>He stoped and looked at her. "I am a wolf Bella proably the one in the forest. Bella my pack in against the Cullens and well, Bella we only kill what we are trying to protect you from vampires." He told her knowing it was ok becuase well he wan't the first moster she met and well she was good with weird.<br/><br/><br/>Bella<br/><span style="font-style: italic">Bella hugged him back and let out a sigh, but couldn't help feeling a little better about having him with her right now letting her eyes close for a moment till me mentioned needing to talk to her. She looked up than moved to sit down in the chair he pulled out and leaned back as he spoke. Her eyes seemed to narrow some as he talked about the tribe some.<br/><br/>"Wait wolves...like real wolves?"<br/><br/>It seemed a little off but when he spoke of the Cullens she looked down and bit her lip a little she already knew the Cullen's weren't normal. But hearing Jacob right now she wondered how to tell him she already knew, shifting up slowly and moved to look out the window.<br/><br/>"I know the Cullens...are different and have known...but it doesn't matter anymore..."<br/><br/>Her voice rather soft and low before hearing him tell her about him and she turned around slowly walking back over and sitting down. Bella's eyes staying on Jacob's face for the moment and she let out another deep breath, biting her lip some as he spoke of them attacking the vampires.<br/><br/>"Jacob....the Cullens are gone although....Victoria is here and...on no. Jake I saw three wolves in the forest before I called they were after Victoria and some other vampires the could get killed. She isn't anyone you want to take likely..."<br/><br/>A sudden panic in her voice worried about the others being hurt by her while they were talking all this time. Letting her head lower some as she slowly got up and walked into the living room and curled up some on the couch, shivering a little. Mostly her nerves and also being she felt cold all of a sudden. Staring down at the floor before letting her eyes close and trying to calm down.</span><br/><br/><br/>Jacob<br/>"Yeah like real wolves." Jacob told her "It's ok Bella with the pack on her trail she wont be able to hurt anyone. We are very fast, so not to worry. "We have chased her kind before. We took out that leach witg the dreads easy enough." he told her getting out the food and giving Bella her food and then setting his infront of him. He threw away the bags and sat back down. "Bella you and Charlie are safe we will find Victoira and take her out as well. Trust me Bella I will make it to where you are safe." He prosmied her taking a bite of food and watching here.<br/><br/>After they ate and cleaned up they moved to the living room and where watching t.v. He was scilent as was Bella, they where just enjoying there time together, it had been too long. "So Bella anything you want to do today?" Jacob asked when a commerical came on. He looked at her and smiled.<br/><br/>Bella<br/><span style="font-style: italic">Bella looked back to Jacob as he promised to keep her and Charlie safe and that the pack would take care of Victoria, her eyes going slightly bigger when he spoke of them taking out Laurent. That was a bit of a shock to her but well it was good to know.<br/><br/>"You took out Laurent...just be careful Jake she isn't playing games and doesn't seem to want to be caught. What she want is me? It's why she keeps coming back when you chase her off. Edward killed her mate and she feel that it is only fair to kill Edwards...meaning me. And I don't think she will care the he and the Cullen's are gone."<br/><br/>Sighing some before he handed her the food and she tried to eat at least not to think about the issues with the vampires. But she did feel better knowing that she could count on Jake it was a little helpful knowing what he was now and that he would keep her safe. She never should of pushed him away like she did, Edward wasn't the right one for her and she just had to learn that the hard way. Finishing her food and smiling softly over at him helping him clean up some and starting to feel a little better now.<br/><br/>Sitting on the couch once more she curled up some with the blanket over her watching or trying to watch the show. But as the commercial came on she finally registered that Jake was speaking and looked over at him.<br/><br/>"Umm...we could do a movie if you want. But don't you have to be with the pack? I mean you said your all hunting for the vampires what will they say about you being here with me instead."<br/><br/>Biting her lip some before laying her head on the arm of the couch, curling up a little more and pulled the blanket around her more. Letting out a deep breath still worried about Charlie since he hadn't come home and wondering if he was out hunting Jake's pack.</span><br/><br/><br/>Jacob<br/>Jacob laughed, "We can read eachother's minds, they will tell me if she's back and if they need my help." He told her hugging her. They waited till there show was over. Jacob knew that Victora wouldn't try anything on Bella with him with her, she wasn't that stupid. After the show they where watching and let her to his car portectivly. On the way to the theater they talked about him being a wolf and Victoira about Rosalie, Emmett and Edward. They talked anout about of stuff, just catching up on stuff they missed, he told her about his motorcyle he had.<br/><br/>When they arrived at the theater and he opened her door for her, "Well we can see Face Punch..." Jacob told her, it was an action movie. He smiled and laughed at the look her her face. "What it's an action movie I thouhght that was more your style because if not there is Love spelled backwards is Love, your pick." He told her still alughing at the look on her face, as they walked to get into line to get there tickets.<br/><br/>Bella<br/><span style="font-style: italic">Bella had to smile hearing Jacob mention they could read each others mind and wondered if that was a good thing or not. But for now she let it go curling up against him and let out a breath, just being there with him made her feel better. All those three months it was like a piece of her was missing and now it seemed like it was slowly coming back, and she had to wonder if Jacob was the reason. Explaining finally after all this time about what happen that night at the Cullen's when she spent her birthday with them. Trying not to break down when she got to the part about Edward missing school only to meet her at the house and how they went to go talk in the forest. She didn't have to say much else since he mentioned being there when Sam came walking up with her in his arms.<br/><br/>"I'm sorry for worrying everyone and especially you Jake and for seeming to push you all out of my life, I just didn't want to lose anyone else. It just seemed that whenever I got close they left and I can't handle that happening again....especially with you."<br/><br/>The ride to the theater was nice and she had to admit he did one hell of a job on the rabbit. Teasing him some about it not being fast like she thought. But tilted her head when he spoke about having a motorcycle now too wondering some about him possible giving her lessons. Then she shook the though not really all the nuts enough to do something that risky. <br/><br/>A smile when he got to the theater and was helping her out till he spoke of what to see and that face was normal for her. Yet she did understand why he was doing this for her, knowing a romance might only cause her more pain. Sucking in a breath she moved slowly to the line than turned and smiled.<br/><br/>"Let see Face Punch...I can't do romance right now if that is alright. And Jake...thank you."<br/><br/>Smiling softly before she kissed his cheek than turned and waited for their turn, her hands in her jacket pocket.</span><br/><br/><br/>Jacob<br/>"Your welcome Bella, what are friends for anyway?" He told herhuggging her. They bought a big tub of popcorn and two large drinks and some candy. They walked into the theater and watched the priviews, then the movie started.<br/><br/>They had finsied the tub of popcorn and was eating the candy, Jacob cuckled ever time a guy ran out of the movie, what marshmellow. He finsihed his candy and watched the rest of the movie. The movie ended and Jacon took her hand in his has they walked to the car. He was sp happy and he wanted her to be the same way.<br/><br/><br/>Bella<br/><span style="font-style: italic">"Your right that is what friends are for."<br/><br/>Smiling softly as they got their tickets than went to the snack bar, it was nice just to do something normal and she missed this. Letting Jacob decide where he wanted to sit, munching on the popcorn. Watching as a few guys ran out of the theater before she shook her head some, she didn't understand how guys couldn't handle this. Her eyes moving to look at Jacobs resting on the arm beside her than looked away to the right before letting her gaze move back to the screen. He was her best friend so why did something feel so weird to her right now?<br/><br/>As the movie got out she moved with Jake back to his car biting her lip some as he held her hand, looking down at the sight before she looked back up at him. Slowly pulling it away well trying to be a little slick about it, she just didn't know what to think. Moving towards his car and leaned against it some looking down at the ground.<br/><br/>"Jake...I don't know about this it could mean two different things for each of us. And I don't want to ruin what we have. God that is self-fish of me."<br/><br/>Closing her eyes and sighing softly moving her arms around her some.</span><br/><br/><br/>Jacob<br/>Jacob smiled, "Well good friends at least." he said joking with her. he ruffled her hair and laughed.<br/>They walked toward the car and he pulled her hand away, he forwned and looked at<br/>her wondering why he couldn't hold her hand..."What I cant hold your hand? It's because of him isn't it?" He growled looking at her. She was his bestfriend but....he was feeling more......protective over her. It was odd but when she smiled his heart skipped a beat, she she was sad his heart fell. He loved Bella...yes he loved Bella. He put his hand under Bella's chin and pushed up her head gently, "Bella I wont ever hurt you, I wont do what be did." He told her pulling her into a hug. He let her go and smiled openeing her door then walking over to the drivers side and smield<br/><br/><br/>Bella<br/><span style="font-style: italic">Bella had to smile when he said they were good friends, cause well they were really. He was her closest and best friend for a long time and it hurt that she never told him everything about Edward. But she couldn't at the time not even realizing he already knew quite a bit. <br/><br/>Letting out a breath she bit her lip hearing him question about holding her hand before he asked if it was because of Edward. A sudden pain hitting her chest at the mere thought of Edward again. Though before she could say a word he was lifting her chin up and she let him gazing back into his eyes, knowing Jacob's feelings for her went beyond a friend. Just she wasn't sure she was ready for that now.<br/><br/>"Jacob you can it's just I think it means something else to you. But...it's just your going to ruin what we have and I don't want that. And that's just because I don't want you to go anywhere. But it's self-fish of me."<br/><br/>Letting her eyes close even though he told her he would never hurt her like Edward had, she looks as if she is about to break down crying than just lays her head on his shoulder. Hugging him back for the moment before he pulled away and unlocked the rabbit for them to get back inside. Taking a breath she gave him a weak smile back before getting in the car.<br/><br/>"So where are we going now?" </span><br/><br/><br/>Jacob<br/>Jacob smiled at her, "Well you don't like shoping and we say a movie so was thinking...........the book store out of town?" he suggested since it was a Friday night and the pack hadn't calling him to help that right now was good. He pulled his car out of the parking lot and started driving him car...faster teasing Bella back for teasing him earlier. They passed the house and Jacob got no scent of Victoria, that was good and bad. He let out a soft growl as thye drove to the book store.<br/><br/>They reached the Forks city limit sign and kept driving, they joked around and talked about each other. They reached the book store, "Bella wait....I fotgot to give you your precent on your birthday because I didn't see you." he siad shifting stuff and finding the dream catcher she made Bella for her birthday, "Happy late birthday Bella." He told her hgivin giving it to her then hugging her and then getting out of the car and walking over to open her door. He smiled at her and helped her out of the car.<br/><br/><br/>Bella<br/><span style="font-style: italic">Bella giggled some when he mentioned about her not liking to shop but he had a point she really didn't. But the mention of the bookstore she smiled shaking her head some when he made the rabbit go a little faster. Looking over at him and smiled some.<br/><br/>"Jacob Black your trouble you know that, trying to show me your car can go fast?"<br/><br/>He had her smile and she couldn't help but to smile being around him, it was like just having all her stress melt away when Jacob was near her. Though as they got to the store she was going to get out till he stopped her. Taking off the seat belt she tilted her head some and lightly scratched her forehead before smiling up at him.<br/><br/>"This..this is actually perfect thank you Jake."<br/><br/>Hugging him back and hoping that might help with the dreams she was having lately about Edward and everything. She was constantly up screaming and poor Charlie was at his wits end on what to do that could help. Shifting the gift into her pocket she slowly got out as she came to help her. Looking back up at him a moment as if just for the first time really seeing him.</span><br/><br/><br/>Jacob<br/>Jacob smiled glad that Bella liked the gift. He hugged her and stood there, he looked at her and smiled. They walked into the book store, he sat in the chair by the door while Belle looked around.<br/><br/>He streatched and watched her, he smiled that she was happy. Right after Bella payed for her books and they where walking to the car, the pack contacted Jacob, he growled, "Bella we need to go home now. He got her in the car and ran to the drivers side, he turned the car on and flew out of the parking lot. They reached the Fork's city limit sigh and cauaght the scent of that blookd sucker. He growled again , he was going to get Bella hom first.<br/><br/>He pulled into her drive way and walked her in the house and gave her a hhug before taking his car down the street. He stoped talking and ran into the woods. The blood sucker was close by. He followed the scent and found the pack had Victoria surrounded. He waited for the signal from Sam her fan toward her again she jumped but Jacob bit her leg. He growled and looked as she ran away.The pack was off again, after her, she was slower now since Jacob had wounded her leg so they where still on her trail.<br/><br/><br/>Bella<br/><span style="font-style: italic">Bella smiled back she couldn't help it when ever she was with Jacob, he could get her to smile no matter what. It had to be a gift of his or else she just didn't have a way to not smile with him around. Walking into the store she shook her head when he just sat down. But she went ahead and looked around a little.<br/><br/>Finally getting a book about legends for of course vampires, since she had Jacob to talk about werewolf issues now. Paying the man and moved with Jacob to the car though hearing him she sighed some. Quickly getting back into the car before he tore out of the park lot. She looked at him but didn't say anything she knew he wanted to get back to his pack. Letting him walk her to the door and gave him a hug once they were at her house before seeing him take off down the street.<br/><br/>Sighing some she moved back inside the still empty house and up to her room, siting down at her desk and looking over the book. Catching up on some of the history of vampires, the legends, lore. Shaking her head some as flashes about her first encounter with Edward came into her head. The way he looked at her, his eyes changing color, than him stopping the van before vanishing from school. His lying about what he did, than the encounter in Port Angelos with the drunk guys. It was all there catching a few main words as she let her eyes close, no she didn't need to remember him anymore.<br/><br/>Bella closed the book and changed for the night guessing Charlie was still out hunting the wolves, well hunting Jacob's pack now. But she knew Jacob and them wouldn't be easily found out she that gave her some relief as she curled up on her bed laying on her side for now. She wanted to try and sleep, but wasn't sure she could even do that not with how she worried about Jacob right now, but had a faint smile looking up a moment. His dream-catcher gift hanging on the head board. Closing her eyes to try and rest praying the nightmares would end.</span><br/><br/><br/>Jacob<br/>Jaocb stopes chasing after Victoria after Sam telling him to stop, he takes off about to bite Victoria when Paul ignores him and charges after Victoria causing him to get hit and getting thrown into a tree, Jacob who say it ran to Paul's side and shifted back with him helping him up, "Your hurt, I am taking you to Emily's place." He told him taking him to his car and driving him to Emily's house and helping him inside. He explained everything to Emily then ran back out to his car and driving back to Bella's house.<br/><br/>He tossed a few small pebbles at her widow untill she opened the window, "Back up I'm coming up." He told her jumping off the ground onto the tree to the house back to the tree climbed it and went into her window and smiled looking at her.<br/><br/><br/><br/>Bella<br/><span style="font-style: italic">Bella was trying to sleep and it wasn't really working she kept seeing flashes in her head either from Victoria and Laurent or Edward. It made her start stirring on the bed though trying not to scream out like normal. Not like that would of mattered since Charlie wasn't even home yet so he wouldn't be hearing her. <br/><br/>Letting out a light breath she moved onto her side more curling up into a ball almost with one arm under her head. An image of her and Edward in the forest sent a chill down her back till a tapping sound suddenly woke her. It took a few moments for her to fully register it was at her window and slowly got up to go see. Spotting Jacob she blinked some than pushed the window open.<br/><br/>"What are you doing here Jake? You scared me"<br/><br/>Stepping back slowly after she said it when he told her he was coming up. Tilting her head some before smiling over at him and moving closer just glad he was alright. When he just up and took off going to help the pack she got worried. Her arms going around his back for a moment in a hug.<br/><br/>"I'm glad your alright, I got worried when you went to go help the pack. So is ...is Victoria...is she dead?"<br/><br/>Hoping perhaps that she might be, but knew that woman wouldn't make killing her easy and slowly moved her arms from around him. Going back towards her bed and sitting down against the pillows looking down just for a moment before her gaze moved back over to him.</span><br/><br/><br/>Jacob<br/>Jacob hugged her and looked at her, "No, she is not dead at least not when I took Paul back to Emily's house. I wounded her so she is alot slower but he hit Paul and threw her against the tree.....so I left with him and took him back there. He wasn't happy and Sam wasn't so Bella I'm guessing she will be dead soon." He looked and saw the dream catcher by her bed and couldn't help but smile. He let out a sigh, "Don't worry Bella. I won't let her get to you, you are safe and with the packs help you and Charlie will stay that way." he told her hugging then seeing the mark from James and it caused him to growl and pray that that blood sucker was dead then Bella could be happy.<br/><br/>"Well I better go they will start to wonder where I am, I'll be back in the morning." He told her walking to the window and jumping to the ground and running off down the streets and ran home, he got there and the pack was there, he looked confused but walked up. Victoria was dead but she had something about a vapire army. Jacob's heart droped, well he would only tell the Victoria dead part. She sighed and said ok and went inside and layed on his bed thinking as he fell asleep.<br/><br/><br/>Bella<br/><span style="font-style: italic">She smiled hugging him back than as he explained she sighed some softly looking back away for the moment. Trying to cover the mark from James on her hand before hearing the growl and moving to her bed. Leaning back on the pillows she looked back up and tried to give a reassuring smile as he spoke of her and Charlie being safe.<br/><br/>"Thanks Jake.."<br/><br/>She knew he and the pack would do all they could to stop Victoria but was it going to be enough shaking her head some and was going to speak but he mentioned needing to go. Looking back up as he moved back to her window and jumped down letting out another sigh before curling up once again. But sleep wasn't going to come this night either just the same horrible nightmares and she woke herself up screaming again.<br/><br/>Shifting up she moved to go see if Charlie was home and found the house empty expect for her, guessing he was still out hunting for the wolves. Biting her bottom lip she tried to go back to sleep but the nightmares didn't allow for that to happen much, and she kept getting flashes of people she'd never seen before. Glowing red eyes and it scared the crap out of her especially now and she woke up again as the alarm went off.<br/><br/>'Who the hell are they and why are they coming for me?' She thought as she slowly got up to get dressed needing to get to school though really not wanting to go. But Charlie would flip if she skipped and being her senior year she couldn't afford to. So she got ready, ate something small and left the house going to her truck and took off towards the school. Her mind though was a million miles away back to those dreams and she still wanted to know who those people or creatures were.<br/><br/>Pulling into the parking lot she got out than just sat by the bed of her truck thinking and staring off mostly into space. Her arms somewhat crossed over her chest as she let her eyes close for a second.</span><br/><br/><br/>Jacob<br/>Jacob walked to Bella's school and walked up to her, "Bella.....hey Bella." He told her smiling at her as she came up to her truck, "The pack killed victoria, no more Victoria."He told her betting up in the bed of the truck still smiling. He wasn't going to tell her about the other 'army vampires' untill they looked into it, for all they know it could be an empty threat. He laughed at the look on her face, "Seriously Bellla, no joke." He told her as the school bell rang, "I'll see you after school Bella." He said and with that he got out the the bed of the truck and left. He sighed glad knowing at least one blood sucker was dead but now they could have a whole army of vampires.......they could never win aginst that. He sighed and shook his head while he walked back home to go to his school.<br/><br/><br/><br/>Bella<br/><span style="font-style: italic">Bella blinked once before registering that someone was talking to her and it was Jacob, smiling a little as he came over to the truck. Hearing what he said she just stared at him a little shocked at the moment and unsure she could believe it finally letting out a breath.<br/><br/>"I can't believe it you got her..."<br/><br/>She was still in shocked watching him in the back of the truck before the bell rang and she sighed some, shaking her head and not really wanting to go to class. But she would. Watching him get out of the bed and leave before she moved to go inside to her classes though she seemed distracted for most of the day. Sitting alone at lunch and staring out the window barely touching her food and just not wanting to talk with anyone at the moment. Knowing her friends probably didn't understand but they were going to just have to deal right now.<br/><br/>After the last class Bella made her way out to the parking lot and hopped into her truck but sat there or a little before she started it up and drove out of the lot. As she drove home there was still so much rushing through her head and she took a side rode through the mountains. Than when she couldn't drive any further got out and moved along the trail just wanting to think and didn't feel like going home, not like she could study anyhow right now.<br/><br/>It took her a little while to get up deeper through the trail but soon she was there, the meadows were her and Edward once came that was suppose to be 'their' spot. But now it was all dried up and dead nothing like it had been back than and she felt pain rushing through her chest. Bending over some before hearing a noise than spotted someone coming through the trees. At first she was going to ignore them, but they seemed to get closer and closer which told her what they were. 'Oh my god' <br/><br/>Bella suddenly took off back along the trail running as fast as she could, though trying not to trip since she wasn't the most coordinated person in the world. Listening to the sounds of growls and realized there was more than just three, tripping a little but not completely falling. Trying to make it back to the truck at least and possible get away, but she suddenly had to stop when there were more blocking her way. Looking around she soon realized she was surrounded and tried to take run off the path and lose them, seeing more than five behind her and who knows how many in front. <br/><br/>Not sure where she was going just trying to get away or find someplace they would follow her, not even close to the Quileute Reservation so that was no good. Her idea soon came to a dead end seeing the cliffs up ahead and she stopped. Watching a few stones fall into the rushing water below and turned seeing the vampires coming closer, snarls and growls as they did. Bella glanced behind her once more and just jumped, not having much other choice and hit the water below. Waves crashing over head and pulling her under.</span>
