I just had another crazy story idea. I guess my OCD isn't satisfied with rewriting the old stories and reporting them. I'm not sure how this will go, or whether It can even develop into a believable plot. So bear with me and forgive me if it turns out 'horrible'

Chapter 1

'I don't remember! I don't remember! I don't remember! Why can't I remember any of it?'

I sighed and stared across the empty space over the wild ocean waters. The moon was bright and beautiful today. It felt closer, like I could touch it if I reached. The still of the night was eerie. Only insects, a few small animals and the waters kept me company. This was how I spent all my nights, sitting at the bottom of a cliff face where the waters splashed me soaked.

I'll have to leave in a few hours when the sun comes up. I loved watching the early glow of the rising sun. It didn't last long before the clouds covered it in grey skies. We rarely see the sun here. There is constant cloud cover with some rain. It is beautiful and miserable. I often wonder what it would be like to live in other parts of the world. I have never travelled. This rainy place is all I know. I could never make myself leave no matter my curiosity about the world. I am afraid of what is out there. I also want to be here for my uncle Billy. He is old and getting tired.

My brothers and I have an understanding of sorts. We always volunteer for shifts so that he can rest more. He must be suspicious of our motives, of that I'm sure although he hasn't asked. It helps that it has been quiet for the most part of two years in the area. I remember clearly the one and only time we had a wonderer near the town of Forks.

I had never seen my uncles and brothers more agitated and murderous. Their howls disturbed the silence of the night while their feet pounded the ground. My brother Jacob had just joined the pack, having woken a few hours earlier in the day. When he sprung to his feet and ran I couldn't stay behind. I worried for him and uncle Billy.

We ran fast through the dense forest. The pack had split to surround the town from all sides and close in the intruder. Jacob and I ran alongside the road that led from the reservation to the town. I hadn't thought we would be involved in the hunt and killing of the intruder. I wasn't prepared when a loud crash sounded on the other side of the road. Jacob had been thrown back a few feet. I could barely make out the sound of quiet laughter as it carried in the wind. Following my instinct, I gave chase with Jacob on my heel.

I could not let the intruder hurt anyone at the reservation. I hoped the pack was not far behind. We ran through the streets, across yards and over houses. Jacob couldn't always follow us to step. He broke off and herded the intruder to the beach. I saw the confusion when the intruder turned and saw that it was me behind him. It was a man with long hair and a long coat. He wore no shoes. The hem of his pants was tattered as was his coat. I imagined he passed for a homeless person. Once he had noticed me, he started running in circles, all the while trying to get a good look at me.

"Are you friend or foe?" his quiet voice carried in the air around us.

"You are not welcome here. Leave" I replied

"Is this your territory? Are you alone?" He asked

I only responded the same as before. I could hear the pack approaching. When the intruder noticed, he made a bee line for the beach. Jacob was the only one in his way. All thought stopped when I saw the intruder leaping with open hands towards my brother's neck. They tumbled and fought at the top of the cliff. Before I could reach them, he had his arms around Jacob's body. My brother's cries of pierced my ears. I crashed into the intruder throwing us all to the ground. Jacob moaned but the intruder turned quickly to trap me below him. His hands were at my neck. I could see the confusion in his eyes. He wasn't trying to kill me, only restrain. His deep red eyes bored into me.

"Your eyes…" That was all he said before Jacob threw him off me. I could hear uncle Billy's furious growl as he broke the treeline and saw us.

The intruder grabbed Jacob's tail as he fell over the cliff to the grey waters lined with sharp rock outcroppings below. I did not think as I threw myself over after them. I was horrified to see my brother claw the air with fear in his eyes. The intruder met me strike for strike and we plummeted into the water. I could only hope to hurt him. I knew I was strong but I couldn't fight. His red eyes were terrifying even under dark waters. I felt a strong pull and shocking quick pain before I realised my arm was missing. Jacob sunk his teeth abound the intruders neck and tugged like a dog paying with a rag doll. I joined him, sinking my teeth on the opposite shoulder. His arm fell off too. He pain me no attention, focusing his strength on fighting Jacob off. The damage caused by Jacob's teeth had started to cause cracks on the intruder's skin. I held onto his long hair and pulled hard. His head came off at the same time Jacob lost his strength.

I supported my brother's huge wolf body with myne and swam up to the surface. He shimmered and transformed back to him human body when he could breathe. Using my one arm, I helped him out the water to the edge of the beach. The pack was waiting. Uncle Billy hurried to help Jacob. Uncle Harry and Sam stared at my shoulder where my arm was missing.

"Is he dead?" Sam asked

"I think so. We tore his head off his body"

"We must burn him" He state in finality. I knew this to be true, so I stood and made my way back to the water.

"Bella" I turned to face uncle Harry. "You did good, you and Jacob." I didn't know how to respond so I continued to the water.

Uncle Harry was a stand-offish man. Sometimes, it felt like he cared for me and others like he wanted nothing to do with me. I stayed out of his way as much as I could, which was hard considering he was best friends with uncle Billy and I with his daughter Leah.

I found the sinking body of the intruder and his head. Once I threw them to the feet of the waiting pack on the beach, I decided to go look for my arm. It had sunk much deeper. I didn't know what I would do with it. Let them burn it or keep it in a box in my room. It was strange. I felt loss for my arm but was in no pain nor did I feel disabled. Leah was going to have a field day with having an armless friend. I moved the arm to its place as I swam. It was a last goodbye of sorts, to see it there one last time. A tingling sensation startled me. It started unpleasant and grew painful. Somehow I knew not to pull my arm away. When I broke the surface, I realised the arm was reattaching to my body. It was a strange thing to see and I wasn't the only one staring. Sam walked over and held the arm tighter by the shoulder.

"Is it helping?"

"Yes, thank you" He kept pace as we walked towards the pack. Jacob was standing with the others watching the intruder's body burn. Sam was technically my older brother too. He was uncle Billy's son from another of his late wives. We didn't have a sibling relationship like Jacob and I had. He was the quiet strict older brother who always had an eye on us. I stared, shocked to see a cold-one's body burn to ash. There was an awkward edge to the mood of the pack.

"Bella, lets take Jacob home." I followed immediately at uncle Billy's suggestion.
