Tale of the white wolf

Author's note: I had considered this story, after watching the 3rd film last year but hadn't gotten around to writing it. It does take place a few months after the 3rd film and it works on its own, a little separate from Meyer's story-telling. Also I have ignored the events of Breaking Dawn hence none of that story's plot exists with this story, so there is no wedding and no baby for Bella and Edward. Them and the rest of the Cullens' will make an appearance from time to time in the story but they aren't the focus point. I wanted this story to focus more on the wolves and what they do and their human side as well since we don't really see them much through the films, and specifically it follows Jacob as well since he is my favorite character from the whole series.
Enjoy!
Chapter 1
Jacob looked around him, a slight smirk on his face watching everyone enjoy each others' company, laughing and chatting together. It felt good especially for him, to be able to be with those who cared and only wanted the best for him.
It had been just over eight months since the newborn vampires were destroyed and life around Forks returned to normal. The humans were none the wiser of the threat that could have claimed their lives if it hadn't been for the wolves and the Cullens' finding common ground. Jacob sighed quietly, his happy mood vanished for a few minutes and he allowed his mind to think back eight months; when Bella had eventually told him she had made her decision, she wanted to pursue the life of a vampire because she felt deep down it was the right decision no matter what anyone said. It has taken him a while to come to accept it but he was coming to terms slowly although it would still continue to torment him. It is why he too had to make his own difficult decision, one he knew in the long run was right but it hurt and it had hurt her too. He still remembered telling her and seeing the disappointment on her face, he didn't want to drag it out and just said what he said and left. He told her, that as long as she made her choice to be part of the vampires and one day become one of them then they could no longer be friends she had already hurt him enough and he didn't want to go through it all again and it was better he cut all ties. So he did, he also never spoke to her dad though his dad did on the odd occasion but Jacob stayed far away no wanting to know any news about Charlie or Bella as it would only remind him of everything he had already gone through being with them.
'There is no way, man no way your stack was bigger than mine!' Jared exclaimed.
'Take it like a man, J you aren't as skilled as me!' Paul remarked he had the widest grin on his face. Jacob came from his thoughts the smirk came back to his face as he listened to Jared and Paul continue to mock each other over their fish catchment earlier in the day. This was his life now, and while he had lost a part of him a while back he still loved being here with all the guys hanging out doing their thing.
Feet thundered across the soggy ground leaving heavy indented footprints with each step. It ran wildly through the dark forest tripping over twigs, branches and tree roots along the way. It had fear and panic and this only fuelled its frantic pace as it tried to escape from its chasers. It tripped over a rock and rolled down the slope landing with a thud in a pool of mud and exhausted from the chase it laid there gasping for breath, hoping the chasers had given up and would turn their backs.
'Get up!' a voice roared; it slowly lifted its head the mud dripping off its face its eyes blurry from all the slosh. Rubbing its eyes it was greeted by the snarling face of one of its' chasers their narrow red eyes stared it down white teeth gleamed in the darkness with a hint of drool hanging at the corner of the lips.
'Tell me where she is!' the angry voice spoke again, but it didn't know where the voice was coming from the mouth of its chaser did not move.
'I—I-how do you speak?'
'Tell me where she is and I just might spare your life.'
'I don't know what you are talking about.'
It heard another growl from behind and turning around quickly it was met by two similar fierce glares; one set of eyes was green and the other set brown and the two circled it with caution.
'I will ask you one more time. Where is she?' the same loud voice asked. It could only shake its head.
'I don't know.' It answered.
'Then you leave me no choice.' The red eyes chaser answered there was a hint of laughter and as the trio prepared to attack their ears flicked, picking up a long loud howl from a distance. The one with the red eyes snarled and stared at the other two.
'What are you waiting for? Get out there and find her!' The one with brown eyes and green eyes bounded out ahead racing back up the hill and from sight while the red eyes chaser look at the victim still shuddering in the mud.
'You've escape death, for now but I will catch you again.' The red eyes chaser answered and then, turned and sprang up on the hill before also vanishing from sight and it was left, sobbing uncontrollably in the muddy puddle in the darkness.
