Chapter 7
What the hell was that?!
Author's Note: Oh for the love of skittles I finally updated this story. Yes, it's been a while, but I haven't stopped writing it. I actually have about ten more chapters after this...yeppers.
"Oh, that."
"Yes. That is kind of a need-to-know thing. I can't have a best friend that keeps secrets from me. It like, goes against everything we stand for!" I smiled lightly, but Bella just glanced at the ground. "So, when did you…change?"
"About a year ago."
"Oh, and who umm...well...did it?" I tried to word myself carefully as to not upset Bella. I mean, she was a vampire for Pete's sake!
"Edward." Oh...so he's one of them too. I get it now.
"Oh, okay."
We sat there in silence a little longer. Then, suddenly, Bella just burst out laughing. I stared at her in complete confusion.
"What?"
" Do you" –snort- " remember that video that we watched when we were around thirteen?"
"What video?"
"You know, the one with the man dressed up as an old woman that was in a book club. Do you remember what I'm talking about?"
I shook my head again. Actually, I did remember it, but I wanted her to stay happy as long as possible. It was a really stupid video.
"You know, where she said, 'Have you ever been cut at the ankle with a blade?' And she also said something like, 'He looked like a shriveled up pony.'"
"Oh, yeah! That was the funniest video that I have ever seen in my life!"
"Yeah, that was when we had decided that no matter what happened after school, we would always be friends."
I looked down at my hands sadly, and swallowed hard.
"You know, Bella, we will always be friends no matter what."
"Yeah, and I've been meaning to tell you this for a long time."
"What?" Now, she had me intrigued.
"I…" Bella then suddenly disappeared. I sat there and suddenly some thing burst through the window. I screamed as loud as I could. I felt as though I blacked out and suddenly, the creature stopped moving. He came close to me and whispered in my ear:
"I want you." Okay, at this point I was about ready to just kill myself. I am so sick and tired of these freaking monsters trying to kill me. I mean, how freaking important am I to them?!
He grabbed my wrist, and flung me up into the air. He looked at me in a curious way, and then flung me across the room. I hit the wall and sank to the floor.
"Jake," I whispered, but he never came. That thing came back over to me, and he smelled my hand. I slapped him, and he slapped me back. He started to laugh, and I could feel blood forming in my mouth. Suddenly, he was pulled from me, and I took a deep breath.
I felt arms wrap around me. Bella was carrying me, and suddenly, we were downstairs. What Bella doesn't know was what that monster said to me. I couldn't even tell what that thing was.
That thing was in the shape of a man. It had clumps of red hair spread across its body. His black eyes flashed with hunger as he passed my way. What I think I'll never forget is the way he looked like my father. The way that he moved, it was just…like him.
"Karr, honey, are you alright? Oh God, don't ever scare me like that again." I heard Jake say, and I snapped out of my daze. I tried to speak, but my lips wouldn't move. "Bella, what was in there?"
"It was a vamp-wolf."
"A...what?"
"When a werewolf is bitten by us when they are in their human form, the genetic DNA fuses together causing a vamp-wolf to be created. They aren't always like that…only when they are triggered by complete depression."
"Dad," I whispered finally, and turned back to Jake's bedroom to see his window broken.
"What's that?"
I looked back at them, and I started trembling. I realized that I was in Jake's arms when I decided to fall limp.
"I'll put her on the couch," I heard Jake say.
"NO!" I yelled out, and he looked down at me. I had no idea what I was saying. Suddenly, it felt like I was with him again.
Jake's POV
"NO! DON'T TOUCH ME! NO!" Karr yelled out, and I looked down at her. Her eyes were wide open, and she was shaking terribly. It nearly scared me shitless and I tried to calm her, but she wouldn't stop.
"Karr, what's wrong?"
"No dad! NO! LEAVE ME ALONE!"
She was sobbing now. I looked up to find that Bella was gone. I looked around, but she was nowhere in sight.
"NO!" I turned back to Karr, and I pulled her in close. The door flew open and Billy wheeled in with Charlie right behind them, looking terrified.
"What's wrong, I thought I heard a scream!" Billy said, and he looked down at Karr. She had a bloody nose from when the vamp-wolf flung her across the room. Billy then glared up at me.
"What did you do?!"
"It wasn't me! Can we please talk about this later?" I said, looking up at Charlie. Billy noticed this and he nodded. He wheeled closer to me, and then turned back to Charlie.
"Charlie, I must apologize, but I was wondering if I could have some time with my son."
"Oh, sure! I'll just head on back any way."
"Thank you."
As soon as Charlie left, I walked over to the couch and laid Karr down, who had fallen asleep after her little outrage.
"Jacob, what happened?"
"I was downstairs, and Bella was with Karr when-"
"Wait, Bella was here?"
"Yes, but she had to be here. Karr would have died without Bella!"
"Fine. Continue with your story."
I took a deep breath and explained everything that happened to him in the calmest voice I have ever heard. He listened carefully and nodded his head occasionally. I finally finished when he decided to wheel over to Karr. I followed him and stroked Karr's forehead.
"You say it was a vamp-wolf?"
I nodded, and he looked her over. I guessed that he was checking for bite marks. Damn, if he bit her, I will personally rip him to shreds.
Author's Note: I would really like a total of 8 reviews before my next update...it would really make my day. And I have some sour skittles if you want any. They're yummy...and painful!
