What if when Alice returned and met Jacob, they fought, but who was the attacker and whom the defender? I'm a first time fan-ficker so reviews would be loooooved.(Some parts taken from New Moon,most from memory or else edapted to fit the story line so not exactly correct)
Disclaimer: I can only wish I own the Cullens and the wolves but sadly....I don't :(
An alternate chapter for New Moon, just as Jacob and Bella pull up to her house and Jake catches a vampire's sent
Bella POV:
"There's a vampire in your house, "Jacob hissed."And you want to go back?"
I glanced at him, ripping my unwilling eyes off the Mercedes-terifide it would disappear the second I looked away."Of course, "I said, my voice blank with suprise at his course I wanted to go.
His face hardened while I stared at him, congealing into the bitter mask in place, I caught the spasm of betrayal that flashed in his took a deep breath."You're sure it's not a trick?" he asked in a slow, heavy voice."It's not a trick, take me back!"A shudder ripped through his wide shoulders, but his eyes were flat and emotionless."No."...."Jake, it's okay-"
"No Bells, just.....just let me check it out,I don't like stay here and if I howl, drive to LaPush as fast as this tin can go, if it's all clear then I'll come out and you came be lovey-dovey with your leeches again!"
He got out slamming the door, bitterness rolling of his tounge with those last few words.
I didn't argue as he ran, full speed to my home, for all I knew Victoria could have bought a car just like I realised ,I just sent Jacob to Victoria! Alone!
I couldn't beleive I did that and searched through Jake glove compartment, at last I found what I was searching for, his phone. I scrolled through his numbers until I found Sam's. I had my finger ready to dial if needed but I didn't want the pack up and worried if it was Carilise.
It was then I heard such a thunderous noise I'm suprised my house was still standing. I heard a loud crunch as a hole was blown through my roof and a large russet brown form soaring through the air and landing in the forest near my home,
I could hear his whimpers as I ran towards the house, dialing as it was answered after two rings and I was nearing my front door."Hello?"his strong voice rang."Sam! It-it's me Bella, somethings wrong, Jake's hurt, she-she's at my house! I-I-I can't find him!"
I could hear more than one growl on the other end."Get away from there!We are coming!Run and hide Bella, now! We are on our way!"
I was begging, not for myself, but for Jake, I couldn't bear it if my Jacob was hurt or....worse because of me."Please hurry she's......"I couldn't finish my sentence, the phone slipped from my hands as I just stared before me, at the intruder.
Sam POV:
"Please hurry she's.....-"Bella's voice screamed of fear. I heard the phone hit the ground and cut off."BELLA!"I shouted into the phone though I knew it was no good. The pack's eye's rested on me, waiting for the command. They had all listened in with our hearing. Paul seemed to bearly control the shakes run through him as all but my Emily had heard the call. There was still low growls around the table.
"What is wrong?"Emily asked. I gave a nod to my pack to leave ahead of me, I needed a quick word with my other half. "Quil, Embry! Stay and protect our lands."I commanded before they could run out the door."But Jake needs help!"They rang in chorus."And that may cloud your judgement in battle! Stay!"I used my Alpha status to it maxuim with that one command. I knew they wanted to help their friend but I couldn't leave LaPush un-protected. I knew they protested but they bowed to the command.
I reached out and cupped Emily's face."Wolf problem, I need to lead them."She simply nodded. I could never understand how she could understand and accept being with something like me. I leaned in for a short, passionate kiss that made me want to stay, but my inner wolf growled at the idea of leaving a wolf, a brother behind. I ran out the door in a rushed motion and with a crack I was my wolf form, already with claws sunk into the earth.
I pushed these claws as fast as possible, easily catching up with my pack to rank center. Our thoughts in unison as we read Jake's. He was down, and in pain. His only glimpse of the attacker was small and pale, but the smell, obvious vampire. Jake could hear the attacker close in on the beating heart that could only belong to the only human dumb enough to try save him.
That was when me, Paul and Jared pushed our hardest and our fastest ,to Isabella Swan's house.
Bella POV:
"Alice!?"My voice clearly showed my confusion, but not my complete and utter joy of seeing my best friend again."Bella?!"She seemed to look confused, joyed but also...worried? Her head snapped to my kitchen door and I was suddenly in a blur of colours and we were then in the forest about 10 miles from my home.
She gently let me down but I kept my arms wrapped around her neck and completely broke down into her shoulder sleeve."Alice...What are you doing here!?"I sobbed into her shirt.
"Bella?!I should ask you the same! How are you alive!?"She rubbed her cool marble hand up and down my back in a calming manner as we sat on a large tree root, me sitting in her lap. I was so wrapped up in trying to remember her scent, her bell like voice, even the in-human cold-ness and marble like skin that finally her words sunk in."How am I alive? What...what happened?"I was completely confused and I knew I was forgetting something but the human mind can only take so much.
"Bella! I saw it..unless it hasn't happened yet, if that is so how dare you think of doing that! What about Charlie! How could you-"I realised what she was talking about."Alice, first..you can't yell at me for something I haven't done yet, but I think I know...you saw me fall?"She quickly turned from nagging mom to stern mother.
"No I saw you jump. I wasn't looking for you, I promised I would leave your future alone but it just popped out at me and although i knew I'd be too late I had to at least support Charlie and....seeing as you have done it already! How could you?!To Charlie? To me?!"I could see she was clearly hurt and her expression tore my heart out, if any was left.
"Alice, I wasn't trying to commit suicide."She raised an eye-brow to that."Are you saying you didn't jump off that cliff today?"I lowered my head and un-wrapped my arms from around her neck and stared at my knuckles.
"I did jump off the cliff, but it was...recreational purposes only."I chanced a glance up into her black eyes and saw she didn't buy my excuse."I know it's crazy but with Victoria I just wanted a bit of down time."I could see her eye's widen at this news. I forgot she didn't know what has been happening, since she....and her family, the family I loved and hoped to join had left."Victoria!...when did she return?!"she hissed."Well...a while after Laurent came in the meadow-"I stopped as a heard the snarl escape her tight lips."Laurent?!Bella you better start from the beginning."
I sighed a shakey breath and then retold from when Laurent came,to when I skimmed over the cliff-diving incident to Harry's passing. She listened carefully, only to ask who was each person I named and to stiffen when I mentioned how many near-death experiences I had had over the past few months, mainly from vampires. When i finished she remained in thought for a moment until she turned to face me.
"Us leaving you didn't do any good did it?"She asked."Well, it's not like you left for my benefit. "She opened her mouth to answer when suddenly she snapped her head to the north and a small growl shook through her. Within the same second we had flown up and were standing in the forest, Alice crouched in-front of me."Bella..be as quiet as possible."I could hear the tense tone that also contained protection ,just like his would.
No, I couldn't break down hear, Alice was relying on me, I had to hold together. I looked into the under-growth though I knew my human eyes couldn't see what ever danger was here. Apparently, neither could Alice ,as she stayed still as a statue, not making a sound ,not even breathing. But she wasn't running, meaning the danger was too close to out run. I couldn't understand how I could find some of my happiness ,finding Alice, being accepted in LaPush, my relationship with Jake, just when my life was getting good again for it to be snatched by a un -known foe, it seemed cruel.
Alice whispered so low I barley heard it, "Bella take cover, stay behind me."I nodded and crawled down on all fours behind a large stone. Alice followed me, standing ever so protective in-front of the stone ,this was it, the danger was about to show itself. I could make out twigs snapping,15 feet away. Alice seemed to crouch lower, growls ripping out louder and angrier, she really looked like...like a vampire. The last of the snaps came and I could see the danger as it closed in on us. Growls erupted on both sides as I caught the first glimpses at the foes.
