Chapter Four

APV (Abigail)

As I lay there, there were a storm going on. Thunder cracked loudly and rain came pouring down, After some time, sleep finally found me. I had nightmares about the night Charles had first touched me. The memories relayed again and again in my head. They were so painful. I had tried countless times to wake up, but it was impossible. I tried to move, but my body just felt like a dead weight.

Finally, after some time, I fell into a more peaceful sleep as the rain and thunder subsided.

APOV (Amber)

I haven't seen Abigail since she had left with her father. He came back three hours ago looking a bit gob-smacked and a little angry. I had asked him where Abigail was, and he told me that it doesn't matter and that he didn't care. That shocked me a lot.

It was 11.45 PM now and there still was no sign about Abigail. At the moment I'm sitting outside with the gang. The gang being Jacob, Jared and Kim, Quil, Embry, Paul and Rachael, Seth and his sister Leah, Collin and Brady.

I wonder where Abigail was. Her parents went home hours ago, both drunk. Shane had to drive them. "Hey, what's wrong?" a voice asked from next to me. I looked up and saw Shane staring at me with a look of curiosity. "I'm just worrying about Abigail. I mean, last time I saw her it was quarter past 7 and she left with your dad. He said, and I quote, 'Why don't you run along, Amber? Abigail and I have some unfinished business that I need to take care of.' He came back ten minutes later looking shocked. I asked him where Abigail was and he said that he didn't know nor did he care. He wasn't even drunk at that point, nor had he had a drink." I said softly while looking down.

Shane didn't answer, so I looked up. His eyes were huge and they held shock, disbelief, anger, betrayal, sadness and some other emotions. His whole form started shaking. "You okay?" I asked him worriedly. When I asked this, all eyes turned to us. They guys' eyes got huge. "Kim, take the girl inside!" Jacob ordered. I glared at him. "'The Girl' has a name, idiot!" I yelled as Kim and the other girls dragged me inside. We went to Jacob's room and just chatted. I could see they were tense. I was about to ask what the hell was going on, when I heard an ear-splitting, painful howl. All of us girls had to cover our ears.

We all looked at each other, shocked. The three girls then had knowing looks on their faces, and looked at each other sadly. Then we heard an earsplitting scream. It sounded like Abigail. We all looked at each other, shocked.

It was Abigail.

Abigail's POV

In the middle of the forest, Abigail lay on the ground, mourning. Suddenly, throughout the forest an earsplitting howl filled the air. It sounded painful. Birds flew out of the trees surrounding me. I shook with fear. Was it going to come and get me? I screamed.

Suddenly, as if a switch had gone on, I heard soft, gentle whispers, though I couldn't make out what they were saying.

"Do not worry, dear. The wolf does not wish to hurt anyone. It is just mourning…" an old, wise sounding female voice said to me. I looked up and saw an elderly looking spirit in front of me. Her eyes were a shocking blue, her hair grey. The only reason I knew that she was a spirit, was because she was a Wise One, and had long passed away.

"H-how do you know this, Wise One?" I asked. She merely smiled at me. "Please, call me Spirit Mother. You will find that out in the future, Child." She said. "Here, take this." She said, handing a beautiful and ancient looking dress to me. I smiled. "Help is on its way. Keep your friend, Amber close. Keep Seth Clearwater close, too. Good bye. Call me whenever you need me." She said. "Thank you, my Spirit Mother." I tried standing up to give her a hug, but a sharp pain shot through my legs. I gasped in pain.

"Sh, Child, all will be well." Aroline whispered.

SPOV (Shane)

My eyes widened. I knew what Charles had done, but this just made it more real.

I ran deep into the forest and howled. After my howl, I heard an ear-splitting scream. It was Abigail's voice. I started panicking

After that the guys phased to calm me down.

We all decided that Seth, mainly because he imprinted on my sister, and I, to go into the forest and look for Abigail. We followed her scent. After a while of following her scent, it became stronger and we smelled a bit of fresh blood. We ran further. I heard Abigail's voice and we went to investigate. She was talking to what looked like fog. Weird, had my sister gone mental?

Seth chuckled in his head at that. Doubt that!

"H-how do you know this, Wise One?" she asked the fog. She paused for a moment. "Thank you, my Spirit Mother." She tried standing up, but she gasped in pain and clutched her legs. We were listening very hard now.

"Sh, Child, all will be well." We heard a faint, mysterious and powerful voice whisper softly. She smiled hugely at the fog. The fog moved closer to her. Then she did something that shocked me, she embraced it. We quickly phased back and pulled on our shorts.

"Good bye, beloved Mother," she whispered. We decided it was time to go in.

"Are you going nuts, or what?" I joked. Her head whirled around. When she saw us, she looked down and blushed. "N-no." She stuttered, but then continued to speak with more confidence. "I was speaking to a Wise One, my Spirit Mother." She said. We looked at her in disbelief.

"Yeah, whatever. I bet since Charles had stolen your virginity, that you have officially gone insane!" I blurted out without thinking. Hurt covered her features.

Abigail's POV

"Yeah, whatever. I bet since Charles had stolen your virginity, that you have officially gone insane!" he blurted out. I could feel hurt covering my features. "Y-you knew? Yet you had done nothing to protect me. I thought you were a protector of the tribe!" I whispered softly, not caring that I let him know that I knew their secret. "My gosh, what brother does that! You are surely the worst protector ever!" I yelled at him. He and Seth both flinched back.

Mother, I need you. I called Spirit Mother with my mind. She appeared in an instant. How can I help you, Daughter? She asked in her mind. I decided to speak the last sentence out loud.

"Mother, I wish that you take me home." I said in a voice that sounded like mine, but it was powerful. What the hell? Where did that voice come from?

"Your wish is my command, Daughter." She said in the same, powerful voice. The boys gasped when she came fully into view. She snapped her fingers, then we were in my room.

Okay…. I know that this is weird… Anyhow, please review! And if you have ANY ideas, please tell me! AnythinG!

Thanks,
