I don't own the original story Stephanie Meyers does.

Chapter II

TWO DAYS LATER

"Ugh, Wah happened; I feel like I've been hit by a bus…" I moaned.

A chuckle brought me out of my stupor. As I snapped out of it I suddenly remembered what happened with the dark man and 'Isabella Swan'.

"You know if you continue to stare out into space you'll be perceived as a crazy person." She said amusedly. "Well if I knew what actually happened I wouldn't have to think and try to figure out what happened." I said pointedly.

"Yes," she sighed "Yes I'll tell you everything. Well that was Henry Watson-fellow freak to the nation of fire handlers and the 'cat people'. You are now a 'freak'," She said rolling her eyes. "Any ways as I have wolf ears, tail, eyes, senses, claws, and abnormally sharp pointy teeth I classify as a 'abnormal specimen'." She smiled showing off her teeth. "You are now one of us. There are many types of cats. What type of cat you are depends on four things: Personality, spirit, how you think, and your soul." She explained. "Well that explains…absolutely nothing; please continue." I quipped. She glowered at me. "If you didn't interrupt then I would. Be patient." She growled. "Anyways," she ground out, daring me to interrupt. I just smiled innocently. "Anyways, You would be classified as a big cat. I'll explain later okay?" She sighed as I opened my mouth. I nodded. "You maybe a panther or something. I myself am an unusual thing in our world. I was born part wolf instead of cat. Don't ask me why- even our top scientists can't explain-they say it may have something to do with my mate." She said. "We are a small breed. You must have had at least a little cat blood in you for you to be found and hunted down like you were. Every one has more than one job. I my self am a protector and a bounty hunter-at least till I find a mate and bear cubs for him." She explained.

"Why do you use phrases like find a mate and bear cubs?" I asked. "Is it because you have part wolf in you that makes you think like that? Like instincts?" I frowned.

She smiled "Yeah, You will come into yours as well-fairly soon actually. At least in a week at most. I am a protector because I have even higher senses than a regular felicius (Pronounced Fel-ee-C-us) –That is the name of our kind- and because I'm just awesome like that." She joked. "Okay, so you just have the physical attributes right now but you should get everything else in a couple days." She said.

"A fire handler is not born of a felicius line but of an elemental one. An elemental is very rare. I mean like one tiny bead in one billion tiny beads rare." She stressed.

"Wow," I said "Is fire the only one or is there more types of elementals?" I asked.

She looked at me and sighed. "Let's talk in a little bit okay? We have to move. I haven't moved you at all in the span that you've been changing. We have to go before the search party's come. They'll be calling your name and be using dogs most likely." She slapped her forehead. "I forgot to ask," she sighed "What's your name?"

My eyes widened. "Uh it's a really weird name. You'll laugh at it." I complained.

She laughed, "No I won't." she said, "I promise!" She swore when I looked doubtfully at her. "Well as long as you promise." I deadpanned. "It's…"I sighed "…." I mumbled.

"What was that," she asked "I couldn't hear you." She smirked. "Yes you did with all your extra senses!" I accused. "No honestly I didn't," She whined "you're just really quiet!" As I looked at her she looked tearfully back at me. I broke and gave in. "Fine," I sighed. "It's Artemis Lilaycia Lucian" I whispered turning my head. I heard her snort and whipped my head around to glare. "You said you wouldn't laugh!" I exclaimed "you promised!"

"I'm not laughing!" She defended. "I'm just jealous- That is an awesome name! How many people do you know that have awesome unique names like yours?" She asked "None that's how many!" She said answering her own question "Now, since we now officially know each others names we can get a move on." She said standing up. I tried to get up as well but I lost my balance and landed on my newly noticed tail. I growled and looked up shocked. "I just growled." I said stupidly.

"Really?" she asked "I thought you purred!" she exclaimed dramatically throwing a hand over her eyes. "Shut up." I mumbled standing up again. I started wavering and she grabbed my outstretched arms. "Here," She said "do these things and you shall not fail." She said in a weird voice. She leaned slightly forward and I got a good look at her tail. It was a bout a foot and a half long and a pretty russet color. "If you're done staring you can follow my instructions now." She said blandly. "Oh. Yeah." I blushed. I looked up shocked. "What?" she asked. "I blushed." I said, "I haven't blushed since I was, like, eight. I'm seventeen now so that's what-nine years?" I asked. "Even then it wasn't that much, ya know? Just a little bit you couldn't see past my natural tan." I added. As she started to say some thing we heard dogs barking. She looked at me "Time to go." She rushed.

"Let's go then shall we?" I pushed. "Why aren't you struggling not to go with me? I don't think you reaction is very emotional." She stated surprised.

"Let's just go alright? I'll explain it later Okay? Now let's move." I hedged. "Fine," she said "but, you're explaining later." She gave me a demanding look. "Fine, now let's go!" I yelled.

"Over here!" a voice called "I heard some thing over here!"

That sounded way to close for comfort. Isabella grabbed me and took off. "Hey!" I yelped. "I can run on my own you know!" I glared. "No you can't be unusually strong and fast that comes later." She snapped. "Now shut up!"

As she was running she took a sharp turn and my head banged against a tree. "Ow." I moaned "I'm out for the count." I managed to say before I started to pass out. I heard her grumble "Just great; dead weight to carry around to Uncle Charlie's place. Just fantastic." Before I was totally out.

Good-bad? Let me know please I would really appreciate the reviews-The criticism really helps please.
