I got my idea for this story when I was reading Leah fanfiction and I wondered what I would do if I was a werewolf and I was forced to take orders without choice. So I decided I would make it a story and so I made Sasha Darin so I could enter the story and give Sam and those other guys a run for their money to see if they could break this she-wolf and her fighting spirit!! This is before BD happened and because they were hardly ever in the story I took out Collin and Brady. Please enjoy this is my first werewolf fic.

Disclaimer: I am not Stephenie Meyer meaning I don't own anything in this story, but Sasha and her family (parents and sister). I also refuse to put disclaimers in my other chapters of this story because it'd ludicrus to think I'm Stephenie Meyer!

Symtoms

My name is Sasha Darin and I recently moved back to the reservation I used to live on with my family when I was little. I missed this place, but because of my mom remarring we had to move to Oregon. My mom missed this place more than I had so she finally convinced her new husband to find a job over on the rez or in Forks. This wasn't the first time Lindsey (my little sister who is 11) had been here, but to her it felt like it was because she didn't have clear memories of back then. It was my first week back here, but I learned quickly what the rules were and who was in charge.

Sam Uley had to be the biggest jerk I had ever seen! He never cracked a smile unless he was around his Emily as everyone called her, he was always ordering people around, and when those orders weren't immediatly followed he did something that always made them obey!! By they I meant the little group that everyone called the Protectors I mean please, the protectors? Someone needs to tell him to get off his high horse and realize he's no better then anyone else!! The protectors included Sam, Jacob, Paul, Embry, Jared, Quil, Seth, and even a girl named Leah!! How could someone I shared gender with allow herself to be bossed around by that kind of guy after what he did to her!! Of coarse everyone knew the story of how after promising he would never leave her he goes and dumps her for her cousin as soon as he sees her! Sam Uley is a spineless coward for abandoning her like that, another reason I hate his guts!!

I used to know a couple of the boys when I still lived here a while ago, but since I found out about Sam I hadn't approached them to see if they still remembered me or not. I didn't want to be friends with someone who would follow a guy like Sam Uley around like that.

I did miss Paul, Jacob, and Embry I mean I really did, but I don't think I could look in their eyes and think well about them at this point. Those three used to be so much fun to play with and they were never the type to follow someone like Sam, so what exactly happened to them?

Flashback

"Hey Embry, bet you can't climb higher then me!"

"Your on! But you owe me a soda when I beat you!" I smirked down at the dark-skinned boy, as he acceptted my challenge without a second thought just like I knew he would.

"Embry you can't beat Sasha and you know it!" Another dark-skinned boy called from another tree. The boy next to him started laughing.

"Oh yeah? I'll show you Jacob! Paul stop laughing! Tell you what, if I lose I'll buy you all sodas! But sorry to say it's not going to happen! There is no way I'm going to lose to a girl!" He yelled, frustrated.

"Oh yeah then why don't you come up here and say that to my face, you coward!" I snarled at him. I always got to worked up over those sexist jokes of his.

From my position in the tree I could see Embry's face change to that determined look he gets sometimes. Then he walked up to the base of the tree and started climbing.

My anger disapated when I saw Embry almost slip for the third time, was he really going to be okay? I was getting worried now as he continued to climb towards me. He was never very graceful and at this height and if he slipped he could really hurt himself....

"Embry.... be careful..... hey look lets just go down now and I'll buy you that soda okay?" I said as he slipped yet again.

"Yeah man it's not worth it.... I'll buy you one too if you climb down......," said Jacob as he scrambled down his own tree to reach the foot of ours. It was obvious he was just as concerned as I was.

Paul didn't say anything as he also climbed down to join Jacob, but he was staring up at Embry with a worried expression.

"No! I'm going to beat her! And then I'll actually deserve that soda!" He was getting really close now.

"Fine but you better not fall or else!" I said, hoping this would be over soon, with Embry in one piece.

As he finally reached me, I gave a sigh of relief, but then I started to panick again when he didn't show any signs of stopping.

"Wait Embry! There's a reason I didn't climb higher, the branch there isn't stable!" I yelled at him.

It was to late though as I saw his foot step, the branch give way, and his surprised face as he tumbled past me towards the ground.

"Embry!" I shouted.

And then he landed.

With a sickening crunch.

And he let out a scream of pain.

Paul and Jacob were immediately there leaning over him, trying to help, and unfortunitly also blocking my view as I scrambled down the tree. They parted as I reached bottom, and Embry. I was shocked, I had never seen any of them like this before.

Embry was gritting his teeth in pain, he had a few tears falling from his eyes that were closed tightly, and he was also clutching his arm that was sticking out in a wierd angle.

I was horrified that I had caused this.

"Oh Embry I'm so sorry....."

Flashback Over

I sighed recalling that particular memory from my childhood. I had moved early the next day and had been unable to see Embry or properly apologize after that. I had planned to visit soon after I arrivied, but then I learned about Sam and decided to keep my distance.

It was in the second week I was here that I noticed a visible difference in my height. I thought I was done growing so it surprised me, but as I continued to grow over the next couple weeks I actually became worried as I continued to grow taller and taller till I towered over everybody except for the protectors. My family was worried to, although Lindsey made a point to say I was on miracle grow every chance she got, but everyone else was used to people growing like this around here.

It wasn't till about a month after I moved here again that one day I just started feeling incredibly sick without any reason I could think of. I put on a brave face during school, but after I didn't head for home like I usually did. Instead I went to visit my favorite woods from my childhood. I always went to them when I needed to be alone. I didn't know as I headed there that after I went in I would never really be alone again.

My head hurt and overall I felt horrible. I didn't know what to do so I just sat down on the forest floor doing nothing for hours until it was dark out. Who knows how long I would have just sat there had Sam Uley not walked out of the trees bare-chested..

"You shouldn't be out here at this time of night. Why aren't you at home?" I heard his rough voice ask me with aggrivating calmness.

"I'm 17 I don't need to explain why I'm here just because you ask." I grumbled not feeling well enough to be polite. Great this was just what I needed right now. A stuck up jerk who thinks he owns the place asking me a 17 year old why I wasn't home when I felt this bad.

"It not safe for you to be out here at this time you should go home now." He said with more authority.

THAT did it for my self control. Who did he think he was ordering me around! I wasn't one of is lackies or protectors so he had no right! The next thing I knew I leaped at him and in mid-air I felt myself almost explode as out of the corner of my eye I saw silver and white fur growing on me. Somehow I just knew I wasn't human anymore and I was leaping for a guy's throat!!
