Sorry about the long wait. I had planned on updating yesterday, but unfortunally there was a forest fire so close to my house that I could see the flames from my yard and I had to be evacuated. I know it's short but I will update early this week. Hopefully on Tuesday! Please review.


I woke up the next morning with a pounding head ache. I rubbed the fuzzyness from my eyes, and then I remembered. I had fainted. Why had I fainted?

I jumped up when I felt something moving at the end of my bed. Pulling the blanket up, I seen the source of my fainting. A little chocolate brown puppy was staring back up at me, his tail wagging in excitment.

Oh dad, if you could only know what you have just done to my poor broken heart. I knew he was only trying to help, but this, this was probley the worse thing he could have done. This little puppy reminded me of Jacob. I know that may sound weird, since Jacob was a rust like colour when he was phased, but still, my heart ached.

During my thought process I felt as the puppy jumped in to my lap and licked at my hand. Sighing I picked up the puppy and walked downstairs. I was greeted by the kitchen table being completly covered with everything you would need for a dog, a leach, food, water bowl, toys.

Wow Charlie really went all out for this.

I noticed the clock, It was 12pm. I really over slept...also noticing that it was now 22 days, 10 hours and 24 minutes.

I took the next 2 hours to get ready to go, eating breakfast, showering, and trying to entertain a puppy that was way to hyper for it's own good. Now I know why Charlie did this, I was so busy taking care of the puppy, I didn't even have time to think about anything else, so in a way I could see how it was helpful.

I drove down to La push to meet Sam and the rest of the pack, letting the puppy sitting on the seat next to me. He was barking at every single car that drove past, I couldn't help but laugh.

After meeting up with the pack we headed out to the Cullen house. Why we are going here I have no idea, I don't see how it is going to help find Jake, but at this point I was willing to try and do anything.

On the long walk over, they were nice enough to stay in human form so I would not be left behind, I noticed that my new puppy had taken quite a liking to the members of the pack.

45 minutes later we arrived at the Cullen house. It was a sight that turned my stomach into a thousand knots.

The windows were all smashed in, there was blood trailing down some of the sides, and there were 3 rotting bodies. One was hanging out a window..his head was on the ground below it. Another at the base of a tree, his arms only hanging on by the muscles..and the last...well it was everywhere, it looked as thought it had gone threw a lawn mower.

Embry was the first to speak, " What the hell has happened here, looks like someone had a battle."

I noticed that Sam eyes were dark, and he was slightly shaking. He knew something, I could tell he did. Not even a minute later he bolted for the house and disapeard inside of the broken house. I couldn't decided if I wanted to go after him or no, to scared of what I might learn, so I just stared

at the house I once called home. Holding on to my puppy, not willing to let him go. He was wiggling something terriable trying to go exploring, when I realized that I still had not named him yet.

I did not have time to linger on that thought when the back of the house exploded, going up in flames.

~~3 weeks earlier~~

" I know your here! Show your face and stop running from me you coward!" Jacob was running after someone. He had to get to them, to stop them. He had been running in circles for days, and this had to come to an end. He turned around just as he heard the person he had been looking for jump down from a tree...


I would like a fan of this story to be able to name Bella's new puppy. Please send suggestions in reviews. Also for sneak previews or more notice on when I will be updating, please follow me on twitter. /AvalonAmore
