Run,Hunt,Sleep
This was my life now,can't say I really enjoyed it,this way of living was one of loneliness,sometimes I miss hearing my brothers thoughts,I kinda even miss Paul and Leah,HA! never thought I'd miss them. Sam was the only other person I'd spoken to in god knows how long and that was only when I allowed him which was rare to begin with, I Don't really understand why but he thinks it has something to do with the alpha position or how I broke away from the pack,I don't care either way.
Suddenly my thoughts were stopped by that all to familiar sweet stench that alerted me that my one true enemy was close and closing in on me,but what stopped my movements was another scent coming from the east
"Shit" I thought "there's more than one"
I knew I was a good fighter but two leeches was pushing it even for the best of us,but I didn't have much choice now did I. The leeches breezed into my line of sight and as a ripple effect my ears now lay flat against my skull and the hackles on my back and neck rose and a thunderous growl erupted from my throat, and then I dropped into my hunting stance. One male and a female stood in front of me with their ruby red eyes and amused looks on their faces like I was not an actual threat to them I enjoyed their ignorance,the female was the first to speak
"That thing smells horrible ,what is it honey"she whispered into who I'm guessing was her mate's ear.
But I didn't give him a chance to respond as I closed the fifty odd meters between us faster than I thought possible and got the male by surprise,this was my only opening and I was going to take full advantage of it,my paws broke his skin a few milli seconds before my jaws clamped down around his neck and easily removed his head and a large chunk of his back with it, then I swiftly turnedmy attention back to the female who was just standing there still as a statue watching her whatever you wanna call it on the ground trying to reattach himself. The sadness that filled her eyes was immediately filled with rage as she pounced on me,I feinted to left but one of her hands(no claws) scraped into my right side taking fur and flesh with her,a pitiful whine broke free of my mouth on it's own accord followed by a loud growl of anger which was followed by a hiss that was laced with it's own venom from the leech as she charged me once again but this time I was ready and I Sprang using my hind legs to push me forward as I latched onto her shoulder and started shaking my head violently until I heard the satisfying sound of granite breaking filling my mouth with an arm that tastes as disgusting as it smells.
I didn't have time to rejoice because after her scream filled the forest she was up again leaping at me, she caught me off guard and managed to wrap her one remainding hand around my neck and squeeze as she straddled me and squeezed with her thighs .
I was already rolling trying to get the leech off me as these thoughts flew around my mind trying to ignore the pain of her hold on me when she suddenly plunged her teeth into my neck drawing blood,a whole lot of blood. The god damn leech was actually feeding on me .
"FUCK THIS" was my only thought I wasn't going to die like this.
I was vaguely aware of a voice in the back of my mind shouting directions at me,but right now wasn't really the time for a conversation Sam. He immediately shut up following my train of thought.
The right side of my body was covered in blood soaking into my fur.
I finally got the leech off of me, but it was getting extremely hard to breath as I staggered to my feet trying to find purchase on the forest floor with my paws.
I let out a half growl ,half whine hoping to buy some time before the leech charged me again,but I just had to remember i'm Jacob Black and the world doesn't do me any favors.
She rushed forward again hoping to end my life and probably get a snack outta me. This was my last chance for damn sure and I wasn't going to waste it,I knew the leech was getting cocky because she stopped her run to me and in the most sickly sweet voice i've ever heard and uttered
"If it wasn't for the smell that would've been some of the best blood i've ever had" she finished with a smug smile and then actually sauntered toward me licking her lips that were still smeared with my blood,yep I said sauntered.
She stopped about five feet away from me looking me over with that same smug smile plastered on her face,totally relaxed not realizing that she was going to die pretty soon.
She was totally at ease now and as soon as she got out of her crouch I lept forward ,granted it wasn't much of a leap but it got the job done as I smothered her scream of surprise as my jaw closed around her face and easily removed it from her body.
I crushed the piece of vamp that was in my mouth and spit it out as I collapsed on myself from the loss of blood and the venom that was now spreading thru my body as I willed myself just to give up and ease the pain I was experiencing both mental and physical when Sam barged into my head once again
"Jake! you gotta burn the pieces, we're coming to get you,just hold on "
"uhhhh" was the only response I could muster as I felt the heat leave my body and I once again returned to my human form.
I knew for a fact that my hair was long and shaggy as I played with the blood soaked ends in between my fingers and then reached into my cut-offs to pull out my lighter.
After I collected and burned the two vamps, I slid against the bark of a tree and watched as the purple smoke filled the air along with the stench of grilled leech and finally brought my mind back to that one name,that one girl that made me run away from it all,and as her name left my lips,
"Bella" a small smile appeared right before I blacked out.
