Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter or Twilight, or any of the characters in each series. I only own my OC; Linna Winters.

A few notes: The story is set after the entire Twilight Saga [so Post-Breaking Dawn], and is set during the Deathly Hallows [final book of Harry Potter]. Also, in the story, Sam Uley's pack and Jacob Black's pack are one again combined (you'll find out more about this later).

Chapter One:

Linna POV

I let the uncontrollable feeling of nausea overwhelm me, gasped when the sensation of having your guts pulled out overcame me. Slowly, I heard the cackles of the far distance fade away. Suddenly, I found a forest floor beneath my feet, and collapsed on the soft soil. I check myself; my Hogwarts robe was tattered and encompassed me like a trench-coat, the Hogwarts crest and Gryffindor insignia was slightly faded. My once-white, long blouse was now a soft muddy-brown color, at least my black tights seemed to be clean, and my new boots, thank goodness they were black too! The dirt seemed to match its color.

Groaning softly, I got up from the ground and immediately chastised myself for my laziness: what if the Death Eaters had managed to follow me? I held my wand closely by my side, ready to use it at an instant, though I wasn't sure if I could. The Death Eaters had been showing up everywhere I used magic; was it possible I had the Trace again?

Slowly, I began to venture into the forest: where was I exactly? How had I apparated to a place I had never visited? Unless…it looked somewhat familiar, I just couldn't place my finger on it….

There was a sudden rustle, the bushes shook. I instinctively, raised my wand ahead of me. All of a sudden, a pack of wolves jumped in front of me. My eyes widened and I moved back. It was still the full moon…had Greyback sent them? Could he have sent reinforcements? Even though I had apparated…? And so quickly, at that….

Trembling, I moved against a tree, wand still pointed towards the wolves. Unless they showed signs of attacking me, I would not use magic. I couldn't risk it yet.

A man unearthed himself from the shadows. I shrieked softly, moving back a couple of steps again. He was inhumanly tall, a black, circular tattoo encrusted on his left shoulder, tan, and shirtless.

"What are you doing in our territory?" he asked roughly.

"E-excuse me?" I said quietly, and then reprimanded myself: do not show fear!

"You don't smell like a human."

I wrinkled my nose, he smelled like wet dog, "Neither do you."

"What are you?" he glared at me.

"What are you?" I shot back.

"Look, we're not going to hurt you if you don't hurt us," he said, expression slightly softened.

I snorted, where have I heard that lie before? But, then again, he clearly had the upper-hand here, might as well as answer his questions.

"What's your name?" he asked.

"Linna Wint―" I stopped, should I be giving my real name to these guys, well, I couldn't change it at this point, "―ers."

"And, what's that?" he asked, pointing to my wand, which I was still holding in front of me.

"Oh…a stick," I lied easily, now lowering the wand to my side.

He seemed unsure as if he should believe that, "What are you doing here?"

"I-I don't know…I think I got lost," I admitted shamefully.

"Lost, in the middle of the woods? Do you know where you are?" he asked.

I shrugged, "Somewhere in England, right?" He smirked. And that's when it hit me. This man, he had an American accent.

"Sorry to break it to you, but, you're in La Push, Washington…in the United States of America."

Of course. Because I had the worst luck in the world. At least I knew I was safe from those Death Eaters…

"Oh."

Embry POV

Apparently Paul got a whiff of something not-human a bit farther down our usual territory, so here we were―Paul, Seth, Leah, Quil, Jared and I―trying to track this thing down.

Quil found her first: Here guys, he said, peering over some bushes. We all drew in closer; there was a girl in a long red and black robe, she looked as if she's been to hell and back. Probably no older than sixteen or seventeen. Brown hair cascaded down to her shoulders, she seemed a bit frazzled. And her eyes.

Oh my God. Her eyes. They were so…beautiful: blue and clear like the ocean. Blue like the skies. Was this love? I felt the world loosen, and I no longer felt love for anyone but this amazing, beautiful creature. I could think of her and only her.

Of course, Embry imprints on the mysterious, possibly dangerous girl, Leah said snidely.

An angel like this couldn't possibly be dangerous…

We can still hear your thoughts, and keep them to a low 'cause they're kinda…too romantic. And really weird coming from you, Jared said matter-of-factly.

Paul grimaced, Well, whatever it is, I still need to find out why she's here. So…I'm going to phase and go interrogate her.

Before I could warn Paul to not hurt her in any way, he had already phased, and walking towards the girl. We followed suit. A worried look entered her eyes as we approached and she backed up against a tree. Was she afraid of us…of me?

Dude, we're five giant wolves who have just cornered her. Don't you think she'd be afraid? Quil snorted.

Oh yeah, we're not currently…human. My attention was averted to Paul as he drew up near the girl. She shrieked slightly. I growled.

Calm down, Seth said.

"What are you doing in our territory?" Paul asked threateningly. I growled again.

"E-excuse me?" she said quietly. My growl faded as I heard her voice; she sounded so sweet.

"You don't smell like a human," Paul continued.

She wrinkled her nose, "Neither do you." Seth and I laughed at that one. Apparently, Paul didn't take kindly to the joke.

"What are you?" he said roughly.

"What are you?" she cut in. I smirked; my imprint was a feisty one.

Shut up already, Embry, Leah said in exasperation.

"Look, we're not going to hurt you if you don't hurt us," Paul continued, "What's your name?" he asked.

"Linna Wint―ers." She paused in the middle. Was she giving us a fake name?

I don't think so, Quil said, Looks like she gave us her real name, and then realized she was giving her real name to a random, dangerous-looking stranger. Seth chuckled.

"And, what's that?" Paul asked, pointing at the stick she was holding.

"Oh…a stick," she said. How smart of you, Paul, realizing that the stick was in fact…a stick.

You idiot, Leah seethed, She hesitated, how do you know that's really a stick? It looks polished, and look at the groovings on the side!

Jared snorted, Yeah, Leah, what do you think it is? A wand?

"What are you doing here?" Paul asked again.

"I-I don't know…I think I got lost," she said sadly.

"Lost, in the middle of the woods? Do you know where you are?" he asked.

She shrugged, "Somewhere in England, right?" Paul smirked. Now that I came to think of it, she did have an English accent…Why did she think she was in England?

"Sorry to break it to you, but, you're in La Push, Washington…in the United States of America," Paul said rudely. I growled softly.

England? Quil asked, confused, How do you accidentally wind up in a different country?

"Oh," she said. The news seemed to worry her.

Guys, Leah said, I…don't think she's dangerous…Let's shift back….

So now you don't think she's dangerous? Pray, tell us what changed your mind, Quil said sarcastically.

Call in woman's intuition, Leah snarled.

Jared gasped, Leah…you're a girl? Never would have guessed with that attitude of yours.

Leah swiped her claws at Jared. I looked up to see my imprint move further away, she must've took the swiping as a sign of attack.

Leah, stop! I urged. She complied and one-by-one we processed into another part of the forest to phase back and meet this mysterious girl: Linna. Linna. What a beautiful name….
