Hey guys I am getting so many new ideas I don't think I can type so fast. But less about my complaining and more with the story.

Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight


Hope POV

I couldn't believe it. How could I have been so blind? That explained why I felt like I knew him, I had met him before. I was surprised for two reasons. One I couldn't believe myself for being so oblivious and two I couldn't believe that Edward, Bella's Edward, was the same Edward that I met in so long ago. I thought he had passed away a long time ago but if he was a vampire then he was changed. I learned during my first days at the Cullen house that Edward was the first of Carlisle's people to change. The venom that represented blood boiled through my veins. How could Carlisle be so selfish? Edward didn't deserve to be eternally damned like I was. That is one of the reasons I decided to leave. Edward was the first human that I cared about, he always to seem to care about what I had to say, so I didn't want him to be so close to me for fear that maybe one day I would grow too tempted. He wasn't like that other humans I had encountered, he was fascinating. And he was my best friend and I his.

It was getting late and I needed to get back to the Cullen house. As I was heading back I sensed something ominous in the air, but I shook it off. When I arrived everyone was lounging around; Emmett and Jasper playing some sort of video game, Rosalie painting her nails, Alice listening to music, Esme crocheting, and Carlisle reading. A sudden wave of depression flowed through me to see the so family like. Jasper must have felt it because he paused his game, ignored Emmett's complaints, and asked, "Hope, what's wrong?"

"Nothing, I'm just sad it's night again. I don't like the dark that much," I answered.

"Oh," was Jasper's response then he continued his game.

I walked toward my temporary bedroom and shut the door. Sometimes I missed the ability to sleep; I really needed to get my head off of Edward. I mean how many people find out that their best friend is still alive after ninety years. After a while of lying on my bed I was alerted to a wave of fear, anger, worry, and grief that happened all in an hour. It came toward the mountains where the Quileute tribe resided; I learned from Carlisle that the Quileute were descended from werewolves, our mortal enemies. I wondered why the Quileute would be so worked up. As much as I wanted to find out I could not cross the boundary that they made in order to keep us out unless I wanted to expose the Cullens and myself to the humans. I could never do that to the Cullens know that I know someone I cared about would be exposed not that I would do it in the first place.

The next morning Bella came to the house very early for a human. She ran up to Edward. I sensed tears coming so I ran to get a tissue. As I predicted Bella started to cry. I gave her the tissue and stood back I was getting annoyed at Bella because she was not getting to the reason why she was crying.

"Bella, why are you crying? What happened?" demanded Edward.

Bella stammered, "Jacob…came by…my house…this morning..."

Edward was furious, "What did he do?"

Bella was able to speak clearly now, "Nothing, he told me that someone or something attacked a girl at the reservation. Sam and the others were able to find her but it was too late. They think it was one of you guys."

Everyone's eyes widened at this horrible news. That was the waves I had sensed last night. I had to find this person that caused this and stop them.

"Take me to the reservation. I want to see this for my own eyes," I demanded.

Everyone turned to me and looked at me like I was insane. But I didn't care I had to know if this was the same person I was thinking of.

"Hope, you do know that they don't welcome people like us over there," informed Carlisle.

"Yes, but I have to go. I detest the idea of taking innocent human life," I replied.

"Are you sure Hope? These are foul-tempered wolves. They have never met you before they might accuse you automatically," said Edward.

"I think I can handle a pack of mutated dogs," I said.

If I was still human I would have blushed at his words. It made me feel important that he cared for my well-being even if he thought I was a stranger to him.

"Alright then I'll show you to the reservation."

Edward guided Bella and me to his silver Volvo. After a couple of minutes of driving we were at the boundary line. As soon as I got of the car the scent of wolf stung my nose and I immediately sensed five wolves on the other side of the line. One wolf however was in his human form. I sensed familiarity from Bella so I assumed that was the Jacob that Bella was talking about. I sensed such tension between Jacob and Edward, but some of that tension was from me as well.

Bella stepped over boundary line and shuffled toward Jacob, she spoke to him in a soft voice even though we all could hear them.

"Jacob, I brought Edward and a friend to see if they could find this…this person who did this," she explained.

Jacob stared at Edward for a fraction of a second but took his time staring at me. I sensed doubt in him. It seemed as though Jacob did not think I was trust worthy to help. I didn't care I just wanted to find this monster and destroy them before they took another life.

Jacob seemed willing enough to let me pass but he gave away suspicion in himself. He would keep a close eye on me, him and his pack. He looked at Bella and his expression held understanding acceptance. At that moment I sensed old feelings in him, infatuation, for Bella. Bella was really something different, as Edward described, to have a vampire and a werewolf attracted to her. She will regret for ever being involved in this world that consists of monsters sooner or later if she keeps going down the path she is going.

I sensed an evil presence nearby. This must be the attacker. Suddenly a gust of wind blew by and a scent I recognized came to my nose. I froze where I stood. No, it couldn't be. Not him anyone but him. Before I could get another thought by my natural instincts overcame me and I had crossed the boundary when I got control of my body.

Jacob flew back and I sensed he was going to transform and the other wolves were going to attack. I couldn't go after the attacker if these quarrelsome wolves were in the way. So I did what I have to do, I had to reveal that I knew there were there.

"Call off your pack. I am not the attacker you seek. The enemy you want is near. If you do not let me pass I will be forced to remove you myself," I demanded.

Jacob settled down and shouted, "Why should we trust you. You could be in alliance with the other for all we know!"

I was angry now. How dare he even think I was united with…with him.

I yelled at the dense child named Jacob, "How you dare you ever think of I ever being in association with that monster. You are wasting your time by standing here accusing me when he is coming closer. Now let me THROUGH!"

"NO!"

He was getting on my nerves if he didn't move in five seconds I would kill him and his pack.

I was getting ready to attack when Edward chimed in, "Jacob, listen to Hope she is telling the truth she is not in alliance with this nuisance and he is getting closer I can read his thoughts. He is going to attack again. If you don't stop your fighting then other life will be lost."

Jacob was reluctant to turn away from me but he must have finally picked up on the scent because he and his pack turned their attention from me to the approaching figure. Jacob let us pass with caution, still deluding himself with the appalling idea of me working with the attacker.

We ran all the way, with Bella being carefully watched by Edward and Jacob, until we stopped at the place I sensed the attacker was going to stop at. It was away from the populated area of the reservation where we were free to fight without fear of being exposed. As I predicted the attacker was here, I sensed it and I could smell him. Disgust and anger was my dominant emotions but my face did not reveal them. Everyone was tense they knew he was very near. Show yourself you loathsome monster. As though he were called he emerged from the dark shadows of the tree. He took just a second to look at everyone. I sensed confidence in him, as though he fight off everyone here. When his eyes lingered toward me they stopped and his confident smirk turned into an excited smile. I knew I could have never escaped his grasp. After all that running and hiding he had found me, but now I would not run away. It was here that I would fight, that I would avenge their deaths, them and Demetri. He knew I could not run away now and just to torment me he would expose me here in front of Edward. Edward the one person, who made me feel human, who managed to make me re-experience the old emotions that I had not felt in a long time before I met him.

The attacker stepped a small distance toward me, chuckled, and mocked, "Why hello, Hope long time no see."
