A/N: Sorry for chapter two being a little on the 'crapola' side. I got writers block. I have made up for it though because I think this chapter is pretty good and its my second longest one chapter! :D

Ps: I am sorry if they find out Leah is a wolf later in the series but it kind of fits here for my story, so please take that into consideration if you wish to comment about it.

:D Enjoy

Bella's POV

EW! Should I even attempt to ask myself what the hell that is?!

I thought as I poked something that had been sat in front of me on my table tray about 10 minutes ago.

"I can't do it! Just can't do it." I exclaimed as I dropped my fork on the plate and sucked my head as far back into the seat as far as it would go.

"Is everything ok?" A small blonde woman poked her head out next to my seat and was smiling a widely.

"Yeah, um…everything is fine. I'm just not a huge fan of sea food." I said as I pointed to the thing on my tray.

"Oh honey, that's not sea food, that's chicken and tomato soup." She smiled again.

"Oh…"I said, trying to swallow the bit of sick that had formed in my mouth.

"Great…" I fake smiled, so she would leave me alone.

"Ok. You want me to take that for you." She asked as her eyes flickered to the plate.

"Yeah. Thanks" I shoved the plate into her hands and turned away. It must have seemed very rude, but considering the circumstances, I wasn't particularly fussed on what deranged blonds thought of me.

Sam said he'd be there with the rest of the pack when I got there, so all I have to do is survive another half an hour with crazy people not minding their own business.

I decided sleeping through it would be best, since I probably wasn't going to get much sleep while we are finding Jake.


***40 minutes later***

"Seth!" I could spot him anywhere. Tall, lean…looking like most of the wolf pack actually, but younger.

I started waving my hand like a mad woman as if they couldn't see me over all the people.

Once I reached them, Quil and Embry took my stuff.

"Thanks guys." I smiled at them.

"Hey Seth! Maybe you might imprint after all." Embry said as he cocked his head to one side, pointing to a group of thin blonde teenaged girls.

"Seth! Keep your tongue in your mouth will you!" Sam demanded. I giggled.

"Now, we're here for a reason…" Sam trailed off, then I realised he was staring at Seth again, who had moved onto perving on another group of girls.

"Jake!" Sam shouted in Seth's direction.

"Where?!" Seth jumped then looked around.

Sam just shook his head and began briefing us on his detailed plan.

"Once we're out of human sight and into the woods outside the airport…" he began as he gestured toward the forest encroaching on the car park.

"…we will faze. Seth and Quil will take east; Embry and I will take west and Leah…" Sam said hesitantly.

"…you will go with Bella." He finished as he looked over to Leah, who was obviously fuming about the situation.

"Sam, do you hate me?!" Leah asked bitterly.

"Leah! Get a hold of yourself!" Sam said as he stopped and turned so he was facing Leah, their faces only inches apart.

"Bella is as much part of Jakes life as she is ours. So help me god if you let anything happen to Bella…" I didn't know that Sam cared that much about me.

I had to admit, I did get a strange satisfaction out of watching the way Sam confronted Leah about her attitude towards me.

Leah stood there as Sam backed off and began walked with the pack again.

She looked embarrassed. I guess she is used to doing all the yelling.

She turned her head and looked at me.

"Hurry up; we don't want to be left behind." She said as began catching up with the boys. I followed quickly after.


Once we were in the forest just at the edge of the car park, the pack fazed and Sam nodded to Leah as the rest of the wolves ran deeper into the woods. Sam soon followed and took of in a cloud of dirt and leafs.

Leah took my elbow and led me further into the woods.

"Stay there." Leah said as she stepped behind a tree.

10 seconds later, a fairly small grey wolf appeared from behind the trees.

"Are you sure you don't mind?" I asked as I approached Leah.

She just shrugged and nudged my leg to get on.

I climbed on and before I knew it, we were flying off deeper into the woods.



Leah came to a sudden stop and when I looked up we were in a clearing. They were in the centre of the large field, all surrounding something in a circle. Jake!

Why aren't they doing anything?! Is he…no he can't be. It's probably nothing, just don't freak out.

I got off Leah's back and ran toward them.

As I pushed my way through the circle of overgrown wolves, I saw it lying in front of them.

It looked like a wolf crossed with a human.

It had greyish brown fur and a similar sized head to a horse, but it was lankier. It had actual toes and fingers. Stuff the other wolves had only in their human form.

It was very thin. I could see its spine and its legs didn't look like they could support anything with an upper body of this size.

Then, its leg twitched.

I screamed and landed on Seth's chest.

What startled me more was that the other wolves didn't seem to think anything of it. If this was the thing that hurt Jake, why hadn't they killed it yet? What were they waiting for? Were they going to question him? He certainly didn't look like he could talk.

The creature began to get up. I backed myself up until I was behind one of Seth's huge legs and under his head. He lowered his head so I was slightly more covered.

Sam, Quil and Embry began to make a tighter circle around it. Leah then joined in by stalking him from behind.

Out of nowhere, Sam launched onto him and pinned him to the ground. Then I heard a ripping sound and flinched. It wouldn't be pretty when they stepped away.

When they did, I was prepared for the worst but when I peeked from behind Seth's leg, I was in shock. I didn't see blood and guts strewn across the ground, but a human man standing in the centre of the circle with just a cloth wrapped around him.

"My cousins…" He began as he raised him arms.

"…I have waited long for this moment. To meet the great prodigy that is the new generation of the La Push Quileute's! Your pack has become quite famous within the wolf community. We do find it very strange however, that you have managed to live so closely with the leeches without destroying them." He smiled at the last part and shot a glare at me.

I cowered further behind Seth's leg again.

"Well, well, well." He began walking towards me with a devilish smile.

"You must be the leech lover I've heard so much about." He put out his hand to me

"Bella." I said as I stepped out from behind Seth's leg, not shaking his hand.

"You're a feisty one Bella, aren't you?" He said, still grinning widely.

Seth growled.

"It's ok Seth. I got it." I assured him as I petted his leg and stepped closer to the man.

"So who might you be?" I asked. I don't know where this new found confidence was, but I like it. I started grinning.

"I am Lars, leader of the Aleut tribe."

"I wish we could've come on more pleasant terms, but I think you know why we're here." I said, feeling quite cocky I might add.

"Yes. These circumstances are not as pleasant as I would have hoped."

"Now, to the point. Where is Jacob?" I demanded.

"Oh but you only just got here. Surely you have time to meet the others in my pack, no?"

"No." A strong voice said, coming from behind me.

Sam must have left and fazed while I was talking with Lars.

"You tell us where Jacob is, and then maybe we can discuss this turning into a pleasant visit." Sam said firmly.

Sam then ordered Seth and Leah to faze back.

"Oh, you see we're still using him at the moment. Could we maybe come to some sort of agreement?" Lars said wickedly.

"What?! Using him? For what?! You sick son of a bitch! What have you done to him?" I began striding quickly towards Lars, and then I felt Seth grab my arms and pull me back.

Rage began building up inside me.

"Oh there's no need to be so dramatic Bella. He's perfectly safe…for now."


A/N: I also apologise to anyone who may take offence to my incorrect placing and or spelling of the Alaskan wolf's tribe name. As I am not a Native American, I can only rely on Google for my research. Again I apologise. Also to anyone who enjoyed, I would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks very much :D
