Shape Shifters

Name's Embry Call.
I was sitting at Jake's house watching TV with him and Quil. Quil had the remote and was sitting in the recliner. Jake was on the love seat with his girlfriend Renesmee. Everyone calls her Nessie. It was the first day of summer vacation. We had a picnic planned for lunch at the beach.

We left early and arrived a little after Sam and Emily. We waited for the others and they showed up a few minutes later. Sam started cooking the food.
A loud thud was heard and then a loud groan. Every one stopped what they were doing except Sam, and walked over to where the sound came from.

Then groaning continued. On the ground was a girl around my age i guess and she was trying to get up. Then there was a loud cracking sound.

"Uh that hurts," the girl said. More cracking. Then as I looked at her arm that was obviously broken cracked and moved back in to place.

*how did she do that.* I thought.

She finally looked at the large group staring at her. Then she sat up and reached up to her head, and then she pulled a rock out of her head. The end was stained red. Blood. Then she pulled out some more rocks until they were gone.

I finally actually looked at her she had short jet black hair that came to her chin and a dark brown skin tone; she had Indian blood in her, like the us. Our eyes met, hers were a sparkling emerald green. I couldn't look away; she was absolutely beautiful, beyond beautiful. She turned away with a slight redness coming to her cheeks.

"Are you ok? What happen," Emily asked.

"Oh I'm fine. I fell out of the tree," she said.

"You fell out of a tree? What were you doing in the tree," Quil asked her.

"Chasing a squirrel. i hate squirrels."

"Chasing a ..."

"enough. What's your name sweetie," Emily asked.

"Name's Nic."

"Well Nic we are having a picnic you are welcome to join us."

"Ooo I would love to. Thanks."

"You're welcome. I'm Emily."

"Nice to meet ya."

She stood up and walked over with Emily to the picnic table and I followed right behind them. Then a few seconds later everyone else followed. The food was ready Emily and the other girls got their food first then Emily said that Nic should go next since she was our guest.

Nic stepped up and grabbed a plate and to everyone's surprise she piled her plate with like fifteen hotdogs bun and all. She sat down and squeezed ketchup on them and then stuffed two whole hotdogs in her mouth. She stopped mid bite and stared at us staring at her. I was the first to react and went and got me a plate full of hot dog and sat in front of Nic. I started stuffing my face and a second later Nic continued to eat.

When she was finished she sat there waiting with her knees pulled up to her chest. Which she had pulled close to her when she sat down to eat.

When everyone had had seconds she got up and filled her plate up again.

"Pig," Leah said.

Nic stopped and glared at Leah her hands shook and she looked like she would have committed bloody murder if she didn't close her eye and take a deep breath. When she opened her eyes she looked so clam and peace full. If I was her I would have phased and attacked Leah, she looked so angry when Leah called her a pig. Good thing it wasn't me.

Lighting flashed thunder rolled. Nic looked up at the sky, it was suddenly very dark. A storm was coming.

"I think I better go home now,"

"Want a ride," I asked.

"No thanks Embry."

We introduced our selves before we started eating.

"You sure?"

"Yeah I only live a mile or so away."

She got up her plate forgotten and not empty. She jogged over to where she had fallen and disappeared into the woods.
