I reached the shallower water and shook off my hair.
It dried and the slight curls formed again. That'd be the fire coming in handy.
A strong wind blew against me and I smelt it – wet dog.
I flew down into a crouch and let out a loud hiss.
They emerged from the forest.
I quickly surveyed them.
They seemed to be a pack of about.... 10?
They were all lined up, growling at me. The one at the centre was pitch black and seemed to be slightly larger than the rest. Probably the alpha.
"What are you staring at mongrels? " I hissed at them. They were way across the beach but I knew they heard.
The black one backed himself slowly into the forest and the others covered his movements.
I chuckled to myself and shot up to my full height. They all flinched at the sudden movement and this made me laugh more.
Next thing a tall man in cut off jeans came out and began to walk towards me, taking careful but long steps.
The wolves inched behind him, keeping their eyes locked.
I stayed in my position, they came to me.
I put on a smirk and waited.
"Why are you here? "The tall guy spoke confidently, glaring at me.
"Oh now, come on. Just because you're disgusting little dogs, doesn't mean you shouldn't have manners "
I pushed my hand out in front of me.
"Amara "I stated.
"Sam Uley "he shook my hand cautiously "this is my pack "
"Good for you "I said quickly "okay so what know? " I wiped my hand on my jeans.
"Why are you here? "He said again.
"You really shouldn't repeat yourself Sam, I'm here because .... " I thought "hmmmm... I'm here because I'm running away from the Volturi as they are trying to torture me into submission. You see I'm good and when I say good I mean well: absolutely amazing beyond your little puppy dog daydreams. And the Volturi are all about power and Aro just loves to have the shiniest new toy in his collection and well I say new: 1900's but still"
They stood there dumbfounded.
" I'll let all that information just soak into your little flea ridden brains while I...do nothing " I pulled a face " I have nothing to do – okay then well ill just ... sit ..Over... there "I pointed to a fallen tree trunk and then went across and sat down.
The wolves followed after me.
"We should take you to the Cullen's. That little psychic one said we should be on the lookout. That she'd seen you arrive at the beach and then the vision cut off – meaning we were here"
I played with my nails. My blood red nail varnish was all chipped. Damn.
"Fascinating "I whispered with little enthusiasm.
I looked up into his eyes and peered into his memories.
I scanned through them until I saw them. The local vamp-camp.
Wait – oh my god. That vampire – I know her.
I scanned his memory to find out where they lived and then took off in that direction.
"Hey "I heard Sam yell.
