Shadow POV
I instantly mirrored his action my eyes turned blue and I bared my fangs snarling. I saw him flinch at the noise.
He lunged at me and I quickly dodged it. I swiped at him he dodged it but not as effectively and my claws racked across his bicep causing him to cry out in pain. I caught the scent of his blood and went into hunt mode the shadows quivered at my sudden change from defending myself to offensive attack and he noticed the change too and was momentarily distracted by the movement of the shadows and a moment was all I needed. I lost control.
I took another swipe at him and this time it was a direct hit my nails sinking deep into his flesh. He did not scream he placed a hand over mine and stumbled back slightly with a look of pure shock his breathing rate increased becoming short and shallow I could see the fear and panic in his eyes as he realised that he was the prey.
I smiled at him and pulled my hand from his stomach he whimpered slightly and fell to his knees admitting defeat. I sank down so I was level with him. I put my lips to his neck and bit into his flesh.
Jasper POV
I saw my brother lying motionless on the ground and saw her standing there. I knew she had done something to him I went into a defensive crouch and let a snarl tear from my throat. I lunged and missed then I felt an awful searing pain on my bicep she had cut it with her nails like wide open. That is not possible I thought to myself shocked.
I felt her change I saw the shadows move and then there was another horrible pain in my stomach I looked down to find her nails in my deep in my flesh. I did not make a noise I wanted to scream but my mouth no longer worked I put my hand on hers as if a feeble attempt to stop her I stumbled backwards slightly.
My breaths were coming out short and shallow and panic and fear hit me as I realised that she was not normal and I was about to become her next meal. She pulled her nails out and I fell to my knees in defeat I'm sure I'm going to die I thought I was indestructible but I guess not .
I felt her lips on my neck then I felt her fangs pierce my neck. My neck involuntarily arched towards her and I gripped her shoulders. I was going to die.
''please stop'' I whispered begging for my life. Everything started to spin.
I felt her pull away "whats wrong with me?'' I heard her whisper and start to sob quietly.
Despite the fact that she had just tried to kill my for some stupid reason I felt sympathy for her because I know how it feels to be an uncontrollable monster. I wrapped my arms around her and for some stupid reason I felt her tense under my grip but she did not move or lash out so I did not let go of her.
Shadow POV
"Please stop'' he whispered beginning for mercy. I want to come back into society and I manage to almost kill two members of a coven. I pulled back from him he didn't deserve to die "whats wrong with me?'' I whispered and started to sob, I was a monster all I wanted was a friend I wanted to come out of the shadows, but I am to broken to uncontrollable to come back to the light I should have stayed in the dark.
I felt him hug me I tensed under his grip, I didn't know what to do I had just tried to kill him and now he was hugging me. I didn't understand but for the first time I felt safe and in control I relaxed and buried my face in the crook of his neck and wrapped my arms around him as I sobbed ''I'm sorry'' I whispered
"Is he going to die?" he asked pulling away "no" I answered simply as he pulled away I sighed I didn't want him to let go of me ''then its ok, I know how it feels to be out of control'' he said with a weak smile
''Yes but do you know how it feels to out of control with no one there to help you?'' I asked looking away "no I have never really been alone'' he answered truthfully ''then you know nothing of how I feel'' I whispered
He didn't answer. ''who and what are you?'' he asked suddenly ''my name is Shadow and I am a predator among predators, and a forgotten experiment of the Volturi, I manipulate shadows and the whisper to me they are my only friends and I can't control myself'' I said giving him a brief summary not making eye contact one ''what about you Jasper?'' I asked softly
''How did you know my name? Oh right shadows'' he said answering his own question ''well my full name is Jasper Whitlock Hale and I can influence and read people's feelings well not yours for some reason just like my brother can't read your thoughts. Anyways I was a Major in the army till I was turned and I was out of control until I met the Cullens'' he said studying me.
Edward groaned ''you better take him back'' I whispered I didn't want him to leave me ''you're probably right you should come back with me'' he said with a smile
''may as well nothing better to do and I better be there to apologise'' I said standing up
Jasper walked over and picked Edward up and headed towards home with me following behind.
