Mkay so I thought long and hard about this, what's something that's immortal but isn't a vampire, werewolf, or shape shifter? There's not many stories of girls being able to phase but I didn't feel like doing one of those. Don't write it off until you've read it all. I'm gonna try my hardest to keep her from becoming a Mary-Sue, reviews are key to keeping her under control so please tell me how you like it. Plus there's not many good jacob/oc stories out there, non main characters aren't given many big parts in stories so I decided to do this. Not that I'm actually sure what the pairing will be in this story we'll just have to wait and see.

I don't remember, plain and simple. I don't have a clue as to why there's an immense throbbing pain coming from my shoulders. Just like I don't remember how I got here, where exactly here is, or even why I'm here in the first place. There was a cloth that covered eyes preventing me from seeing any of my surroundings, along with knowing whether it was day or night. It's one giant blank, I don't remember anything beyond feeling my way to the nearest object that I could lean and huddle against. The feeling of the ground though makes me think I'm in a forest, but I could be wrong. It's a soft squishy feeling with slight prickles here and there from a combination of twigs and rocks.I was too scared and confused to take it off so it didn't matter at the moment. If I can't see it then maybe this isn't really happening. There's weird buzzing, eerie hoots and howls that were unnerving all in all I really didn't want to take the blind fold off now. I think it's night from the sounds, I'd rather not find out what was behind the sounds. I think I just heard the thump, and another...oh there's one more...it sounds large whatever it was, and close. The rustle of leaves alerted me letting me know that the whatever it was, was closer then I thought. Please don't let it notice me.
I held my breath and tried to keep still not moving a muscle. It didn't work. It's in front of me, I can feel the heat from it. It's radiating it like the sun on a warm day...perhaps it's day after all? Scratch that it's breathe was hitting the top of my head and knees, it made a shiver go down my body right from the hairs on the back of my neck to the tips of my toes. That same thing then nudged my head, I'm too afraid to lift my head or even move but my bodies shaking from my fear of this thing. It wouldn't matter even if I did raise my head I can't see it, the blind fold protects me from actually seeing what it really is. So I gathered up what little courage I had to lift my head to it. I braced myself for the worst, nothing happened. I let out a breathe I didn't even know I was holding in relief. The breathe on my leg was gone as was some of the heat, it wasn't so close anymore. Maybe it was gone and the heat was just a lingering one on my leg?
"...Are you okay?" Huh? A boy? Did he scare the thing away? I tilted my head to the side lightly, confused about this situation.
"Hey...what's your name?" He asked again in a gentle, hesitant voice. Name? What was my name? I don't remember it. I can't answer a question I don't know the answer to myself.
"I-I...don't remember." I stammered out quietly. This boy could be trouble for me, I don't want to be in anymore pain then I already am. My shoulders are still burning from that unknown cause.
"Can I take that off your eyes?" He inquired warily and I could hear him steep closer to me. I'm assuming he crouched down in front of me for I felt his large hands on the head to go for my protective cover to untie it. I twitched at the sudden unexpected contact.
"It's okay, I won't hurt you." He told me quietly just as the knot came loose, he pulled it away. My cover which had protected me from seeing what was truly happening to me and where I really was. So I squeezed eyes shut unwilling to accept anything yet. I have to admit I was kinda curious to know where exactly this here was. I heard a soft chuckle from the boy. This boy's hands were very warm and very large, they were sitting gently on my cool cheeks still. I didn't realize how cold I really was until he got here.
"You know you can open them, it's alright nothing's gonna hurt you or scare you. I promise." The boy expressed with a comforting tone that made me want to open them. Slowly I opened my eyes, blurs of dark colors became clear within moments. I was right it was night, the moon was out I could see it filtering though the leaves it illuminated the boys face for me. He had dark tanned skin but it could have been darker from the night and curious chocolate eyes looking into mine. I've got to say he's a very good looking boy with amazing facial features, his chest was uncovered and from what I could tell he was extremely fit. His body structure compared to mine was monstrous or maybe it's just that I'm abnormally small while he's average... He looked older too then again I don't know how old I really am, but I'm sure he's still older.
"You have pretty eyes." He blurted out, his cheeks going a few shades darker and a shy smile popped onto his face.
"Do I? What do they look like?" I inquired with unveiled curiosity. I really wanted to know, I have no clue what they look like. I don't remember. Finding out about one's appearance when you forget is a very interesting thing to talk about.
"They look amethyst in the moonlight. You're hairs even longer then mine too."
"Really?! It's such a light color too!" I burst out in excitement as I examined my hair, he was right it's very long. I was on my knee's and it pooled around me, I'm surprised I didn't pull on it will I was crawling. Also from what I could tell my skin was almost as dark as his, only a few tones of difference.
"I'm Embry by the way. Why are you out here so late?" Embry questioned me with a suspicious look on his face and bringing me back to my former bewilderment.
"I don't remember." I replied bluntly, probably not easing his suspicion of me. Embry gave me a weird look in return.
"Okay...Where do you live? I can take you home if you want." Embry offered me politely. It would have been a nice offer and I'd have taken it up too if I knew the answer.
"I don't remember." I repeated to him in a tiny ashamed voice. This was all very frustrating, I don't remember anything and oh how I wish I did.
"I see... I'll probably get in trouble for this but it's not safe out here at night or anytime really. I'll take you with me if you want." That brought back my fear and uncertainty of Embry and I think he sensed it. Embry got this odd look on his face that seemed to calmed me down, I'm not exactly sure how to describe it but it made me feel safe I suppose.
"Look, umm...since you don't have a name I'll give you one if you want." Embry offered hesitantly being sure to avoid eye contact . I gave the boy an ecstatic smile in return with a curt nod of approval to his suggestion.
"How bout...umm...Roxxie?" Embry suggested. I made a sour face and shook my head, which made him laugh.
"Okay...uh Julie?" Embry once again offered to me. This one was better, but not quite there yet.
"Better I guess..." I mumbled in return with an apologetic smile.
"Okay okay, Violet?" That name sounded right, it was perfect.
"Violet...I like it. Thank you Embry." I told him with a very delighted smile. I had a name now. It may not be my real one but this one is the only one I know at the moment.
"Soo Violet, would you like to come home with me for the night? We can figure everything out tomorrow." He explained to me softly and cautiously as if I were to get up and run. I would but my legs feel weird and he gives out a safe feeling.
"Okay...is your house far from here?" I asked him skeptically. My feet were bare so I didn't really want to have to walk far, they would be scratched to nothing by the time we got to his house.
"I guess, you're pretty far out in the woods you know. If you'd like I can give you a piggy-back." Embry offered me, I didn't know what a piggy back was. I looked at him suspiciously but nodded anyways. Embry was hot and I was cold, whatever this 'piggy-back' was I'm sure that it would keep me warm. Embry turned around and knelt down on one leg so his back was in front of me. I looked at his back unsure of exactly what was supposed to happen.
"What do I do? I've never had a 'piggy-back' before." I told him clearly bewildered, he once again let out a low laugh at my expense. I pouted to myself as he explained to me that I was in short supposed to cling to his back. It was quite a simple thing, my legs were to wrap around his waist while my arms were around his neck. I'm slightly embarrassed that I don't even remember a simple thing such as this. I did what he told me to and now we were on the way back to his home or at least I hope we were.
"Thank you, Embry for being so patient with me." I whispered into his back gratefully as he walked. Really I was very appreciative for all he had done so far, I would've still been sitting there against that tree if it wasn't for him. I likely wouldn't have moved until I had no choice but to.
"It's no problem." He acknowledged simply.
"I'm sorry I can't remember such simple things..." I trailed off as I could feel myself start to nod off against him. He was just so warm and him walking along with the steady beat of his heart was lulling me to into a relaxed state.
"Don't worry about it Violet we'll figure everything out tomorrow maybe you'll remember by then." His voice was nothing more then a distant ebb in my hears now. The events of this night have worn me out. I hope he's right, I really want to know why I was alone in a forest with a blindfold over my eyes and throbbing shoulders. Which reminds me my shoulder pain was nothing more than a fading pain now. My last conscious thoughts drifted away as I dozed off on the back of my mysterious rescuer whom I hoped wasn't leading me to my doom. I'll worry about that when I wake up I'm too exhausted to think anymore.

Sorry if it's a little short, this is kinda like the prolouge to it. They're not all gonna be this yeah I'm currently searching for Beta Readers I'd really like to improve it where it needs it. I've revised this about ten times already and I'll revise it again once I find beta readers or just some constructive critism in general.
