(A/N: Hey, guys! Welcome to Midnight Whispers! Normally I wouldn't write out a preface, and I doubt I will for other stories...But origionally, this was formatted like the Twilight series is, so I decided throwing in a Preface would bring in readers...but I'm not sure about that. o.o Now I'm just too lazy to get rid of it, so you may read it if you wish. For more information about the story, go see my profile, if I ever get around to pretty-ing it up...)
Preface
I didn't expect this day to come so soon.
Actually, I didn't expect this at all. I heard mention of this from my parents, but I didn't expect it. I'm sure they didn't, either. My phone rang in my pocket, helplessly vibrating, but I didn't bother; there were worse things to deal with at the moment. I was too shaken to even run for help, or run to my loved ones in front of me. I heard tires squealing far off in the background. I forgot to breathe. They took a step closer, and my breathing returned, in sharp rasps. Tears had stopped flowing; I was too scared to keep any emotion at all.
They inched another step forward. That did it. The fact that the space was closing in too fast made adrenaline suddenly rush through my veins. I fell to the ground, and crawled towards Jacob. I stepped over him, and crouched protectively in front of his limp body. A growl ripped through my sharp, clenched teeth. That didn't stop them. They only moved quicker. The space closed completely, and I lunged.
