Uploading two chapters for now. I thought I'd get a good start on this one. Let me know what you think because it's the first time I've done first person.

After a few minutes I felt Seth phase back and say "Leah, Dr. Cullen is at the hospital. Edward is on his way with me. He's got a medical degree and should be able to help until Carlisle can get home."

I wasn't really thrilled about that vampire helping but I guess I didn't really have a choice. "Did you tell him we aren't dealing with a human here?" I asked Seth.

"Yeah, he knows. We're going to get the hiker out of there and bring him back to the house. Alice, Esme, and Rosalie are setting up the hospital stuff in Carlisle's office. Emmett is bringing his Jeep so we can transport the guy back. And Jasper, Bella, and Renesmee are going hunting so they won't be a problem," Seth said as he and Edward appeared at the top of the cliff. I howled in greeting and was surprised when the hiker stirred and opened his eyes. I didn't want to see the fear in his eyes so I looked away and could tell when he moaned and passed out again.

Seconds later Edward dropped down, startling an instinctual response out of me. I jumped back and growled. Edward put his hands up and said, "I'm sorry. It's just me. I'm not going to hurt you Leah."

I knew that, even if I didn't like vampires I knew this one didn't want to hurt me. But he didn't have to land on me either.

"There isn't a lot of room on this ledge," he said in response to my thought.

Fine, if he was going to read my mind, I said, "Next time just give a girl some warning will ya. Your smell needs an alarm with it. Now cut the chit chat and help this guy."

Edward nodded, "Yes ma'am."

I growled at the same time I said, "Don't call me ma'am."

Edward cleared his throat, and changed the subject, "I'm going to turn my back. I need your help but you'll need to be in human form."

"Fine," I said and watched him turn around. At least he was a gentleman. I phased and pulled on my t-shirt and shorts as quickly as I could. "Now what do you need me to do?"

He turned back around and said, "Emmett is lowering down a back board and a neck brace. We will need to put those on the hiker. I'll need your help lifting him because we have to keep him VERY still. I won't know until we get him back what has healed and what will need to be rebroken. But it is better to do that in a controlled area than here."

"He's been bleeding, will that bother you?" I asked worried about the safety of the man.

Edward shook his head as he reached up to grab the back board that Emmett had let down, "He smells bad. I won't have a problem."

"He doesn't smell bad. You're the one with the smell," I told him shaking my head furiously. I had to get ahold of myself. I could not phase here.

Edward looked at me with a little grimace, as he fastened the neck brace around the guy's neck, "Sorry, I shouldn't have put it like that. He smells like one of your wolves. Which is what I think he might be. We'll have to run some tests before I know for sure." He then indicated that I get at the hikers head and he laid the backboard on the ground where I'd been standing. "make sure you keep his neck and head secure and I'm going to slide him onto the board."

I put my hands under the man's shoulders cradling the neck brace and his head between my arms, as Edward slid him over. "He's not one of us. Jake and I would know if there were any more in LaPush. Sam has kept us advised. Besides I've never seen this guy before, he's not from the Queliute tribe."

Edward stared straight into my eyes. "Neither was Embry." Then he grabbed the ropes that were hanging down the side of the cliff and began to tie them to the back board. Securing the hiker where he wouldn't slide out. I took another look at the man and realized that he was darker skinned, like he had a really good tan, and his hair was almost black and fell past his shoulders. I wondered how this could have happened to him. Who was he and how did he wind up here of all places?

Edward looked at me and said, "I'm going to go on up with him. I'll keep him steady. You can phase back and come up when you are ready."

I didn't really like taking orders from a vampire but I realized that he was giving me warning that he was going to take off like a rocket. "Be careful with him! He's already injured enough!" I yelled. I waited for the two of them to disappear over the ledge then undressed and phased back to my wolf form.

Instantly hearing Seth, "Is it true? Is he one of us?"

"I don't know Seth, we'll have to wait and see. But he isn't human, that's for sure."
