How do I keep finding myself in these situations? I try not to get into them but it's like fate wants me to go through them. So here I am, a soul shifter stuck in the Cullen house with a broken wing because of a stupid bet.

Flashback:

I was perched on an oak branch watching the Cullens. There were five of them. They had gone into the woods to hunt and I had to sound the warning call. I let out the sharp piercing noise and heard birds and animals getting out of the woods. They must have heard it too because they stared at me. I must have looked weird, a peregrine falcon sitting on a tree branch. The little black haired female started a bet. 'Whoever can catch that bird doesn't have to go shopping with me for a month, except if they want to. The rule: You can't hurt it or drink from it. Ok.' They all nodded. 'Ready, set go!' All of a sudden they all rushed towards me. I shot off into the sky scared. The blonde male and the bronze haired male were running on the treetops, trying to push each other down. I flew faster and dived into the clearing up ahead. The big muscular male leaped and caught me like a football. I heard a snap from my wing and then excruciating pain filled me. I shrieked. The others got there and two more vampires came out of the house at the far end of the clearing. The muscular male just stood there looking guilty with me in his arms. I held up my broken wing so it wasn't touching anything and glared at all of them. The adult blonde male came over and gently lifted me out of the male's arms and carried me towards the house. He carried me upstairs and set me on a bed. He gently lifted my broken wing and examined it. Then he left and came back minutes later with two thin pieces of wood. He used them as splints and wrapped my wing up. Then he left again and didn't come back.

End of Flashback

I heard the door open and spun around to look. The muscular male came in followed by the blonde male. The blonde looked uncomfortable. 'Why do you need me to be in here Emmett?' He asked.

'Well I want to know if the bird forgives me or not, and since it can't talk, you're going to have to tell me how she feels.' Just then the bronze haired male walked in with an amused smile on his face. The blonde sighed as Emmett approached me. I hopped backwards trying to get away from him. He looked really guilty as he said. 'Sorry little birdie. I didn't mean to break your wing, but don't worry. I'll make sure you have lots of food.' He looked at the two others. 'Edward, Jasper, do you know what it would eat?' He whispered.

'Emmett, look at it. It's a falcon. It eats meat.' The bronze haired male said amused.

'You'd probably have to catch mice or something small. It isn't the biggest bird out there. In fact, you could probably feed it mice from the pet store.' I instantly felt disgusted. Those little captive rodents from the pet store, they have no flavor once so ever. God, they even smell disgusting. The blonde looked at me, and a second later so did the bronze haired one. 'Edward, the bird just felt disgusted when we mentioned the pet store mice. I'm not going crazy, am I?'

'No, no you're not. There's something up with that bird.' They looked at each other.

'Does that mean I have to go outside and catch mice for it?' Emmett said. I laughed internally. That got Jasper staring even more. Oh sh*t. They were on to me now, except for Emmett. He was still thinking about the mice. Edward and Jasper left and Emmett followed. Halfway to the door, he turned to me and asked. 'I don't have to catch mice outside, do I?' I shook my head no, and he ran screaming from the room, yelling 'The bird just answered me!' I could hear the laughter follow from downstairs. Edward and Jasper came up and stared at me. I just looked at them with my black eyes. Jasper looked at Edward and asked.

'Birds fall asleep when a blanket is thrown over them right?' Edward caught on and walked away. This couldn't be happening, oh crap. This will be bad. Just then, a knock came from the door downstairs, and someone answered it. I heard Charlie's voice. Yay, I was saved! Carlisle and Charlie appeared through the door minutes later. An amused glint was in Charlie's eyes.

'I'll take care of her at my house. I wouldn't want her to interfere with your family life.' Carlisle nodded, and Charlie picked me up. I relaxed in his arms, I was safe. Except for the broken arm. Jasper's eyes widened as he watched me. Edward looked suspicious too.

We got into the car, and Charlie placed me on the passenger seat. He drove for a bit and finally spoke. 'Bells, you really know how to get yourself in dangerous situations. I mean, you got captured by the people you were supposed to be watching.' I stared at him. He could feel the anger in it. He laughed. 'Let's get you to the hospital, and see if they can fix your human arm. I have some clothes in the back for you. I'll pull over near the woods so you can change.' He did, and set me on the ground behind a tree with the clothing. Then he walked back towards the car. I shifted and soft black feathers fluttered to the ground. I put on the clothing being careful of my arm and walked back to the car. I got in the passenger side and buckled up, cradling my arm. Charlie drove to the hospital, and I now have a cast on my arm. It was blue and the doctor signed it, so did Charlie with his messy scrawl. I'm glad it was the summer. I wouldn't have to face the kids of Forks High. Unfortunately, that means I won't be able to shift either for a while or swim.

We got home and I went to the kitchen. I made sausage and macaroni and cheese. There was half a roll of sausage and a box of macaroni and cheese for each of us. We shifters are big eaters.

After dinner, I went up to my room. It was painted a teal color with a light hardwood floor. The furniture was white, as was the closet doors. The sun was setting as I went to bed. I fell asleep quickly and had no dreams.
