Hey guys Upsole (Angel42497) here. I just wanted to let you all know that if you didn't get to the last chapter of the story, that each of the chapters are going to be rewritten so that they won't be completely garbage. I hope that you all enjoy the story, I am working really hard to try and update these in a fairly decent amount of time. I also am going to have more time to write the sequel to this story (Wink Wink it is almost done with the rough drafts on paper) I am glad that you all have stuck with me through all of this and I hope that more people will read my story now that the first chapter is a tad bit better than the first time around. Thank you and I will quit rambling now and let you enjoy the reading. Bye all!

Things haven't been normal since I was forced to move back to La Push thanks to my Grandfather. Although I didn't have anywhere else to really go. My family had been murdered about two months before my Grandfather had found a way to contact me. I was the only survivor of the attack. It had taken some time to set in, but my family was killed by a vampire. I had quickly learned that everything that was said to be a myth was true. Werewolves, vampires, maybe even pixies at this point. Everything was so overwhelming, and not my Grandfather was making me come back to the place where I grew up. It was the place where I had abandoned my best friend, not by choice, but still left him. I wonder if he was still mad at me for leaving him.

One good thing about coming back to La Push is that I didn't have to enroll back in school. Even though I was only 17 years old I had finished my schooling. I had completed schooling whenever I was 14, because I devoted my time to studying whenever I was forced away from my best friend. It was a form of coping with the loss of my best friend. I was beyond smart for my age, and many things about learning bored me.

My Grandfather was friends with the Black's, and that lead to his children playing with theirs and then whenever I was born, I met Jacob Black. He was the friend that I had to leave behind. I still remembered every detail of his face from my memories.

I stared out the window of the bus that I was riding back into town. The rain was hitting the window and causing the image to be distorted. I rested my head on the cool glass and let my mind wander to the question of why my Grandfather wanted me to come back to La Push. I thought for sure that I would never see this place again. The bus came to a stop, and I could see my Grandfather standing at the corner of the bus stop waiting for me with an umbrella. I couldn't help but smile. He was the only family that I had left at this point. I walked quickly over to him and hugged him tightly.

"It is good to see you Brooke! You have gotten so big since the last time that I had seen you."

"Well I really haven't seen you in how many years Grandfather?"

"I guess that is true. My little granddaughter is all grown up and is becoming such an adult."

We both walked back to the house. The house was carefully tucked back into the woods. It was a quite little place, and if you didn't know the area, you wouldn't have known that the house was there. Grandfather was always known for someone that liked to keep to himself. He didn't really associate with the town's folk. I thought for sure that he was the old man that everyone thought was creepy and crazy. Well…they would be partially right at least. Whenever we got back to the house Grandfather had a meal that was waiting for us. We sat down and had a long chat talking about everything that happened. I refrained from saying anything about vampires being the reason that my family was killed, because I'm sure he would think that I would be crazy.

After a long chat, he had looked at me regretfully before asking me to do him a favor. With the look that he was giving me, I was afraid of what he was going to ask me to do. He had asked me to take a book that he had borrowed from Billy a while ago back to him. Apparently Billy had called him and asked for it back. I didn't want to argue with my grandfather, but at the same time, I didn't want to see Jacob. I didn't want to know if he was mad at me for leaving without telling him. I was nervous, but I accepted after a lot of hesitation.

On the walk over to the Black's house, I looked down at the book that was in my hands. The title of the book wasn't very exciting, but whenever I flipped open the first page I saw the name that was signed to it. 'Sarah Black' which was Jacobs's mother. Sadly, his mother had passed away. I closed the cover of the book and held it close. I didn't realize just how important this book really was. I gripped onto the book close to my chest, making sure that nothing would happen to it.

When I reach the Black's door, I gave a quick and light knock. I heard a low 'come in' from behind the door. I slowly pushed the door open, only to be caught off guard. My breath caught in my throat as I seen who was standing behind the door. Jacob was standing there; his eyes were about as wide as mine were. I knew that he was living here, but I didn't prepare myself nearly enough to meet him this soon. I had taken a good look at him. He had changed a lot from the time that I last saw him. He had cut off his long hair, which I really liked. He has also clearly toned out his body a lot. Then I noticed something that confused me. Why didn't he have a shirt on? It was only around 40 degrees outside right now with the clouds covering the sun.

"Why are you here?"

His tone caught me off guard. I didn't expect his voice to be as hostile as it was.

"Don't worry. I'm not here. You don't need to be such an ass."

I growled to myself and started to frantically look for Billy in the house. I wanted to deliver this book and then get back to Grandfather.

"Brooklyn is that you? I haven't seen you in so long!"

I could feel my face peel into a smile as I seen Billy sitting in the room in the back right hand corner of the house. He was clearly happy to see me as well.

"Grandfather wanted me to deliver this book back to you. I hope you don't mind, I opened up the cover of the book."

"That is alright, you were just as close to her too, so I'm glad that you got to see something from her."

I went over and gave him a long hug and kissed him on the cheek. I hadn't seen him in forever. The last time that I had seen him, it was when I moved out of La Push when I was 13.

I could practically feel Jacob standing in the other room listening closely to our conversation. It took everything that I had in me to not roll my eyes at him. I wanted him just to come over and sit down and we could talk, but I could also tell that it wasn't going to happen that way. It seemed as though he was still angry with me.

"You have gotten so big! Why did you move back into La Push? How's your family?"

My heart dropped at this question. He apparently didn't know what had happened.

"Wait Grandfather didn't tell you?"

"Tell me what?"

"W-Well…. My family was m-murdered."

I could see everyone in the room visibly tense at what I had just told them. I refused to tell them that my family was murdered by a vampire. I didn't want them to think that I had lost my mind on top of everything. I could feel myself shaking, and my legs were starting to get slightly weak. I didn't know what to do. The murder only happened a few months ago, and I didn't really have time to cope with the pain. It was still very tender to talk about.

"Brooklyn I am so sorry."

I didn't know what to say. I just looked down at my feet and was hoping that my knees didn't give out from under me. I could feel the sting of salty tears in the corner of my eyes. I turned to see Jacob almost physically shaking. I quickly turned back to face Billy.

"Well I hate to run, but I think that I should be getting back. Grandfather will be wondering where I got to. It was nice seeing you."

I put on the best fake smile that I could come up with, and quickly exited the house. When I was outside I let the tears that were in my eyes fall. It was so painful. I couldn't go see my family anymore. I took off in a sprint towards Grandfather's house.

~Jacob's point of View~

I didn't know if I should follow her or not. I didn't even know why I was so rude to her when she first showed up to the house. I was full of questions, but no answers to go with them. I wasn't expecting her to say that her family was murdered. I was so angry that I couldn't be there for her when she needed me. I knew that it wasn't going to help me to get angry, but I couldn't stop myself from shaking. Whenever she briefly looked at me, I could see the pain that was in her eyes. It took everything that I could to stop myself from running up to her and hugging her tightly. She shouldn't have to go through something like that. I know that I was still mad at her for leaving me, but she was still my best friend. I made up my mind, I was going to go after her.

I turned to run from the house.

"Jake where are you going?"

"I am going to go after her."

I didn't elaborate any more than that and ran out of the house. She had always been able to run faster than me when we were younger, even now with my wolf speed I couldn't seem to catch up with her. Why was I doing this? I ran the whole way to her grandfather's house and I watched from afar. Her grandfather was sitting out on the porch. I wondered why he was sitting on the porch while his granddaughter was more than likely crying inside the house.

"I take it that you found out about her parents?"

He must have seen me, because he called out to me from where he was sitting. He was one of the only people that knew about werewolves that really didn't have much association with them to start with. The only other people that weren't shapeshifters were the imprints.

"Yeah… Is she alright?"

"She should be, but I think that your presence will be better if you showed up more often."

I didn't have a reply back to him, except for nodding my head. I wanted to be part of her life, but I also held a grudge for her leaving me then wanting so much from me. I wanted to also protect her.

"Would you like to come in for supper?"

I was going to say no, but the look in his eyes told me that I didn't have a choice in this matter. I put on a fake smile and went back into the house with him. It smelt like her, even without being in my wolf form, I could tell that she was here. The scent was so strong and intoxicating, and I loved every second of it. Although I wouldn't admit it to myself.

"Brooklyn can you come down here and eat supper?"

I heard footsteps coming down the steps, but something seemed off. Her feet were dragging.

"Grandfather…. I don't feel good. My body is on fire. I don't know what is happening."

"It seems as though it is time."

What did he mean by, 'it's time'? I don't understand what is happening. The only thing that I know is that she is acting like what happens when I phased for the first time. Then everything clicked with me.

She staggered slightly, only to catch herself on the wall before she fell to the ground. She was clearly in pain. I know that whenever I was phasing I couldn't stand at all. She was taking this better than I did.

She cried out in pain and confusion as to what was happening. She was looking over to us with pleading eyes. I took a step forward only to be stopped by her grandfather. She was clearly starting to panic. I watched as her body changed from human to a werewolf. There was a giant, panicking wolf standing in front of me. I couldn't believe the sight before my eyes. The girl that I had grown up with was a werewolf just as I am. I was at a loss for words, but when I saw that she was panicking to the point where she was pacing back in forth in spot. She looked as though she was going to pass out. Her tongue was hanging out, and if it stayed like this any longer she would have probably started foaming from the mouth.

"Brooklyn calm down! You are alright, you don't have to worry."

She was looking around franticly still, but I went up to her slowly and place my hand on her forehead. It seemed to calm her down almost instantly.

"That's right… Calm down. It's going to be alright."

I took her fur in my fingers. She had a beautiful pelt. It was a mixture of black and tan, with a small amount of white. It was gorgeous, I haven't seen a wolf like this before. I slowly guided her out of the house, to see make sure she didn't break the house any more than she already had. I made her stop before I started taking off my clothes, and I phased. You could tell that she was shocked completely. She took a few steps back and her tail went between her legs. As soon as I phased I could hear the other wolves in my brain.

"Is it true that there is a new Wolf around?"

"Why didn't you know that she was a potential wolf?"

"We will be there in a few minutes, don't let her leave."

I ignored them for the most part, but looked over to her. She was still clearly shocked at what was happening. I had no idea what was happening, I didn't want her to be a part of this. I wanted to keep her safe, but in reality she was one of us all along. I phased back and looked over to her Grandfather.

"You knew that she was a werewolf didn't you?"

"Why else do you think that I brought her here? Her parents were killed by the bloodsuckers, and I myself could feel her power. How else do you think that she was the only one to be able to get away alive?"

"Don't you think that you should have told her? I mean she does have a right to know, that way she wouldn't have been so scared whenever she finally did change."

"What if she didn't turn into a werewolf? She would have been disappointed. She already knew about werewolves and vampires before any of this happened. She was more shocked to see that you were also a wolf. Just be nice to her."

I heard a rustle coming from the woods, and it wasn't long until I seen the others walk out in their human forms. I looked over to Brooklyn to see that she had started to panic again. She was panicking because she didn't know who these people were.

"Calm down little girl!"

"That's not going to help her! You are just making her more upset."

Why was I getting so defensive to Sam? It had to be that I just cared about her and that was all correct?

"Jacob, back down. Girl! You need to calm down as well. Once you calm down you can change back into your human form."

She was still panicking so I went back over to her and placed my hand on her forehead again, and watched her change back into her human form. She was naked, so I blushed but adverted my eyes, just as the others did until her grandfather came and gave her a large shirt to wear.

~Brooklyn's point of view~

"So you knew about this? Why didn't you tell me Grandfather?"

"I didn't tell you because I didn't want to get your hopes up. I didn't want you to think that you had power and you didn't to avenge your family. I brought you here because I knew that the rest of the Werewolves would bring out your powers if you had any."

I just shook my head. I did not approve with what he did to me. Why wouldn't he tell me that my best friend was a werewolf? Why was I just learning that there were werewolves in La Push now? I am so confused as to why I would only settle down for Jacob. It was like I was only seeing him. I didn't understand anything that was happening.

"Brooklyn was it? My name is Sam and I am the Alpha of this pack. I know that you are confused, but you have to choose if you want to stay with our pack, or if you want to leave from here and never return."

I was panicking, what does he mean by never return?

"I want to be a part of your pack, if it means that I can stay here."

"Very well then, follow us. We will try to teach you how to phase back and forth. Jacob will be your personal teacher."

I could hear the snickers in his voice. He was enjoying this? I looked over to Jacob, who was looking back at me before he turned and went with the group of boys that came. They all phased back to their wolf forms and took off into the woods. I didn't know what to do.

"You need to focus on your anger, on your emotions to let the wolf out. You have to focus."

I nodded and did as he said, and before I knew it I was looking and hearing all sorts of things that I didn't know was possible. I could hear the others thoughts, and I could smell things that I never smelled before. I looked down and realized that I had paws. I didn't even know that I had changed.

"Okay follow me."

I heard the voice in my head, and didn't question it. I followed the now black wolf, Sam. He was making his way into the woods. I spared one last look over my shoulder to see my Grandfathers form retreating into his house. I turned and ran with Sam and the others. This was a whole new start to my life.
