I Choose you.
Chapter 1
Sometimes life pushes you to make choices that you never imagined you would have to make. Sometimes those choices can break you. They can make you question you existence. But sometimes, the choices you make can bring you happiness, and love.
But at the end, it's always up to you, to chose.

She couldn't sleep. Three hours of tossing and turning, and sleep was way beyond her reach. She has been having the same dream for the past week. Mini tornados that messed up her kitchen, and a bug that she couldn't seem to get rid of; under her floor boards. Being in her field of work, meant that she was bound to loose some sleep, but this was getting ridiculous. She only had a few days to prepare herself for her new position as the Chief Medical Examiner of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
Sighing, Maura got out of bed, and padded over to her drawers, and pulled out a grey cotton shirt, along with some sweats. Making her way into into the living room, she grabbed her sneakers and slipped them on, checking the time on her cable box, she sighed. I guess 4:30 in the morning is as good as any other time to go for a run. She grabbed her keys and phone but hesitated, who would I need to call at this hour in the morning? Shaking her head, she left her phone and headed out the door.
X-X-X-X
They knew she was coming. That's the only way they would've traveled in such a large group. She took a deep through her nose, taking in their individual scents. Vampires. Six to be exact. Alright Jane, take them out quickly, and you can head home... Jane stepped out of the shadows, and silently approached the group.
"I hate to break up this little gathering-wait no, actually I'd love to do exactly that" Jane lifted her head, and slid off her hood.
"It's her, she's the one he wants" the blonde of the group shouted, he looked like he wasn't even a day over 20.
She smirked, as they let their fangs down, "hmm, I'm sure he does- who ever he is, but I think he should know that I don't swing that way"
"Shut up bitch" the red head snarled.
"Guess we know who's dying first" Jane drew her swords, ready for the first fool to attack.
She wasn't surprised when the red head lunged at her, only to have her sword connect to his side, while the other wiped his head off clean. She turned towards the remaining five, as they began coming at her, the sounds of swords clashing and decomposing bodies filled the air. She was striking the last of them when she heard them, about twenty feet away. Pulling the kid towards her, she let her fangs down and sank her teeth into his neck, needing the blood to help heal her injuries faster.
Four, she only counted four this time. Dropping the body, she stood up, just as the four vampires came into view. Get her. We need to get the blood. Janelistened, turning she ran, the trees blurred as she passed them, she knew they were close behind her, all she need to do was get to the other side of the park.
Maura stopped to check her pulse, she had been running for an hour, hoping that the exhaustion would eventually help her fall into a dreamless slumber. Just as she stood up straight, something slammed into her, lifting her off the ground and throwing her five feet from where she was. She laid still, trying to catch her breath. There were no bears in Boston, last time she checked. Her mind was reeling, she was trying to figure out just what could've knocked her so far.
"C'mon, we have to catch her!"
Maura turned her head, but everything was blurry.
Her? Is the animal a female? Maura sat up, groaning as she felt pain shoot down and across her back. There's probably going to be multiple bruises all over my back tomorrow, she thoughtsighing. Maura slowly got up, taking deep breaths as she went, until she heard a chilling scream split the air. Wait-that cant be an animal. When Maura heard the second scream, she took off.
Jane was laying on the ground, her legs bound, and there were thick metal spikes running through her hands. There were multiple stab wounds on her thighs and stomach. The pain wasn't bothering her as much, she was too focused on trying to make the dumbass with the knife stab himself.
"Hey, let's go" the sandy blonde, who Jane now knew was named Eric piped up.
"No, I want to make sure she doesn't move, until the sun comes up" the skinny one moved over to her right.
"Yeah, Bobby's right Eric. Besides Charles said that we need to make sure she dies" Max agreed.
*stab* "Dude!" Max moved over to Eric.
Jane groaned, it was becoming harder to focus what little energy she had left.
"What? It's not like Charles will know. She'll be all burnt up and shit" Eric argued.
Jane stayed silent, she heard the presence of another human. Probably just another one of them. Just as she was about to make Erick Stab himself, his eyes rolled back and he fell forward; reveling a petite women, with a piece of wood in her hand.
"What the fuc-" *wam!* "Ow! You bitch-" *wack* both Bobby and Max fell to the ground. Mauraslowly approached Jane. "It's not at bad as it looks" Jane found herself saying; after seeing the pained look on Maura's face.
"Why were they-"
"A little misunderstanding is all. I'd love to continue this chat, but can I bother you to remove the spike out of my left hand?" Jane turned her head, nodding towards the spike.
"I-ok" You can do this. Maura walked over to Jane's hand. Bending down, Maura grabbed the spike.
"I'll start on three ok?" Maura closed her eyes, and let out a breath.
"I'm ready" Jane husked, the pain she was trying to hold in made her voice sound deeper.
"One, two, three!" Maura steadied herself and pulled. The spike felt like sand paper against her hands, but she kept pulling.
When she finally got the spike out, Maura fell backwards with an 'ooff' Jane released a breath, and began to turn. "Um, can you untie my legs please?" She looked at Maura, waiting for her to move toward her legs, before she pulled out the spike.
As Maura began untying the knot, her eyes traveled up Janes body, taking in how toned her body was. Ducking her head, Maura blushed, and continued her task. I can't believe this. She's injured and in pain Maura! You shouldn't be ogling her!
Jane managed to pull the spike out just as Maura untied the knot.
"Here let me help you," Maura offered Jane her hand, as she helped her up; with Janes are around her shoulder, Maura grabber her waist and began walking.
Jane felt it, she knew it was only a little while before the sun rose.
"The sun, we need to hurry before it comes up"
Maura nodded, and picked up her pace, keeping in mind Jane's bare feet, as she moved branches out of the way, that would've otherwise brushed against Jane's cuts.
"We're almost there," Maura's voiced filled relief, as they cut across the clearing of the park, she was now supporting most of Jane weight. Jane looked over their shoulder at the horizon, the sun was beginning to rise.
"Ok, just a little further, we'll be there soon," Maura reassured Jane. They made their way down the street, please don't let anyone see us. Jane listened to the sounds of people waking up, and began to push herself harder, just as she was about to begin to blister from the sun, Maura stopped, and unlocked her door, pulling them both inside.
Phew.
"Thank you," Jane turned to Maura.
"You're welcome, I'm Maura by the way- Maura Isles."
Jane smiled, "My name is Jane Rizzoli, thank you for saving my life Maura."
A/N: I finally got this out. It's been stuck in my head for a while, lemme know what you think. I know some of you might be wondering why haven't continued my other stories. My computer broke and everything I had saved was gone, and I just haven't had the heart to keep going. I probably will finish them though.
