Edward with Bella in tow fled the
building Edward shouting out carlisle name as they flew past his
office. Bella didn't turn round when she heard the door slam as
carlisle took up pursuit, she had one thing on her mind. she was
dragged by Edward deep into the forest, she could never run as fast
as Edward, but she was faster then carlisle who she could hear
running behind them.
'Edward what is it' she heard carlisle shout
'Jacob and renesmee' Edward reply never slowing, renesmee and
Jacob, Jacob too, Bella thought, her best friend as well as her
daughter, the thought gave her a burst of adrenalin and she caught up
with Edward, now running side by side, what had happened, what had
Edward heard, they had been running for a while now, how could Edward
hear when they were so far away, could they be... dead?
the
thought gave Bella another burst as she over took Edward and was now
dragging him behind darting around the trees. it was then she caught
the smell of blood, newly spilt blood, and there was a lot of it. the
smell made her slow and Edward was now by her side, he gave her hand
a reassuring squeeze as they approached a clearing. they looked at
each other and entered the clearing together, carlisle close behind.
Bella gasped as she saw Jacobs wolf form perfectly still with her
daughter sobbing over him. carlisle ran over to them, kneeling over
Jacob and opened his doctors bag getting to work. Bella dropped
Edwards hand and walked slowly over to renesmee, scared of what she
would see. she looked at Jacobs wounds and watched carlisle fill up a
syringe with yellow liquid before injecting the back of Jacobs paw.
before their eyes Jacobs wolf form melted away to reveal the young
man, beaten and bleeding from his vicious fight despite his healing
powers. renesmee pulled back and gasped as she saw him throwing her
arms around her mothers neck. Bella gripped just as hard unable to
cry but desperate to, just for some relief.
'Edward i need you to
help me' carlisle spoke, ordering the still Edward to be by his side.
Edward stepped forward a blank expression on his face staring at
Jacob.
'hes not dead' he said to his two girls,
'but'
renesmee started
'Edwards right, there's still a faint pulse, I'm
working on getting him conscious'
'how did you...' renesmee
started
'i can still hear him'
'whats he saying?' renemsee
said breaking her hug to hold Jacobs hand and smooth his black hair.
'i, i cant, I'm not sure' Edward stuttered, Bella glanced up at
him, confused, Edward never normally stuttered, what was Jacob
thinking that he didn't want to say? Bella crossed to his side
pulling him away slightly, giving her daughter some space as she
whispered into her lovers ear.
'what is it' she spoke as quietly
as she could
'hes not going to makes it' Edward said so his
daughter couldn't hear. 'he wants to be turned' Bella looked shocked
as she saw the sincerity in his face.
'he what?' she said
normally making the others turn round.
'quiet' carlisle said
sharply, 'i think hes responding' they all turned to watch Jacob. his
muscles on his face started to twitch and his eye lids flicker
'Jacob' renesmee whispered. and his lips started to speak,
'Edward' he croaked 'Edward tell them' he winced as he moved his
most likely broken jaw. everyone turned to Edward.
'he, he wants
me to translate. it hurts for him to talk.' Edward said quietly
renesmee turned to Jacob and stroked his face.
'tell me Edward,
word for word, translate everything' she said staring into Jacobs now
open eyes.
'he isn't going to pull through, its a wolf thing, he
knows, when wolves are badly hurt or injured they curl up somewhere,
they know weather or not they're going to pull though, weather its
worth going to get help' carlisle laid down the rag and bottle he was
holding as renesmee whisphered no. 'he says he cant leave you.'
edward went on looking at his daughter 'he says he will do anything,
he wants you to know that he loves you. and that you should grant him
his last wish with out protest'
'anything' renesmee said holding
his hand to her cheek
'he, he wants me to turn him.' Edward
finished speaking quietly.
'jacob?' renesmee said shocked
'he
doesn't want to hear it, nothing can change his mind, he wants to be
with Nessie, its his last wish, he doesn't have long to argue.'
edwards voice was monotone. he saw jacob as his right hand man, he
was his wifes best friend, his daughters boyfriend, and adopted
brother to his family. edward owed jacob alot, and bella saw how much
this pained him, to see his friend dying, and to hear his dying
thoughts, and then to be asked to be the one to turn him, to inflict
more pain and end his human life. bella squeezed his hand trying to
reasure him and she pulled him over to jacob.
'whats he saying
dad?' renesme said, never taking her eyes off jacob.
'he doesnt
want you to be upset, he says its hurting him more, how he cant hold
you and make you feel better, he doesnt like to be the one whos
causing you so much pain' renesme smiled and sniffed as she wiped her
tears away with then back of his hand,
'dont be so silly' she
said to jacob trying to make her voice sound happy as she gave him a
light shove on his shoulder. edward smiled
'he said that hurt'
renesme giggled through her sobs. even while dying jacob would make
jokes, and make her laugh 'he says he doesnt want that to be your
last laugh he hears. he says to trust him.' and quitly to himself 'he
says i need to do it now' bella grasped his hand with both of hers
and she looked at him, trying to reassue him. 'i cant' he whisphered
to her. 'i cant' he said again 'dont make me jacob' he said turning
to jacob. bella hated seeing edward this torn, she knew he was
protective of his soul, and of his human companions. he wouldnt want
to take jacobs, he didnt want to condem him to a life that could end
up with a garenteed pass to hell. bella felt all of this and was
torn, she didnt want edward to have to do this, but she didnt want
her best friend to die.
'hes getting cold' carlise spoke breaking
the silence.
'jacob' renesme said scared
'carlise' edward
said asking him to do what he thought he couldnt 'edward, i cant, you
need...' renesme interupted
'dad please' she shouted,
'i'
edward began his face contorted in pain,
'dad!' she shouted
grasping jacob as she watched the colour begin to drain
'edward'
carlise said, bella watched everyones faces back and forth, and then
her eyes fell onto jacob and saw him becoming pale and she could no
longer feel the heat that radiated off him
'i' edward bgan again
as renesme sobbed louder. bella pushed edward and renesme out of the
way as she lunged forward sinking her teeth into her best friends
neck.
