chapter 7
the unexpected
Kathrynn POV
Thanks to Bella, the shield on my mind acted like morphine for the next 2 and a half days. I focussed hard on it, and I felt absolutely no pain. I was able to talk for the first day, and I heard a lot of stories. I learned about the legends of the werewolf pack, the pain most people go through during the transformation I was going through, exactly what an "imprint" was, and much more.
I somehow really trusted Embry. When he spoke to me, I just knew in my mind and heart that everything that he said was completely true. I heard that is one of the symptoms of being imprinted on, and I really believe it. I feel the love for Embry that was described. I loved the people I was now with as a family. Well, with Embry, it may be more than just loving as a family. Even though 4 of these people were my alleged "executioners," I had complete trust in them. I knew somehow that what they said, they meant.
The things I heard over the time I was transforming were very interesting. I wouldn't be able to sleep? These vampires had some encounters with some other coven called the, Voltage? Wait, no, that's Volturi. I guess that is easy to mess up though, since both those words have the letters VOLT in them. I have always been one to mess up a lot of different names and all. Like that one time we were taking a social studies test in school. I couldn't believe what I had done. We were studying a major in the civil war, Jasper Whitlock, and I accidentally messed up the name. I had several letters messed up, and I ended up writing, "Casper Withlock." I didn't sleep well that night; I guess that's what caused the mistake.
Suddenly, my thoughts were interrupted. I felt and heard a terribly fast thumping in my heart. I knew this was the end of the transformation. Embry was next to me, so I grabbed his hand and squeezed it. That was a mistake, because I heard a loud crack.
"Ouch!" Embry shouted. I remembered how I heard that newborns had a lot of strength since they had the extra human blood in them.
"Sorry," I apologized. I really meant it. I can't believe I had just broken the hand of the love of my life.
"It has already healed. See?" He said holding up his hand. Then, I remembered how I heard that werewolves healed really quickly.
"I will make sure not to do it agai–" my phrase was interrupted when the tingling suddenly got really intense in my heart. I couldn't say anything, I felt very numb. I heard the speed of my heart get faster than it already was. Now, my heart sounded like a hum, almost like one single pitch going on and on. I could still count the beats, but if you were standing at a distance, my heart beat would just sound like one ongoing untuned pitch.
After about 2 minutes, I heard my heart thump for one last time. Then, all the tingling in my body was gone. I sat up, and looked around. I could see everything so clearly. It seemed I could see everything with such a great view; it was like HD movies times 10. Along with my HD vision, my hearing seemed to be amplified times 10, and I noticed my mind was working a lot faster than it used to. All my memories seemed to be so dim, almost as if I had seen them from a different life. Well, I guess technically, I had seen them from a different life.
Suddenly, I noticed a white light hovering over my head. It was almost as if the light was protecting me; was that the mind shield? Could it be possible that I was able to see it over me?
"Is the shield still over my mind?" I asked. I couldn't believe the sound of my voice, it was like music to my ears. I bet I would be a really good singer.
"Yeah, why?" Bella asked.
"I just see a white light hovering over my head, and I don't know what it is. Something in me tells me it is the shield." Right after I said that, the white light disappeared.
"Do you still see the light?" Bella questioned.
"No, its gone."
I ran up to Embry, and he lifted me into his flaming hot arms. The feeling of his touch sent the most wonderful feelings through me. I could stay here in his arms forever.
"Again, I am really sorry I broke your hand," I said."
"It is completely fine, I am already healed," Embry replied flexing all of his fingers in his hand.
"I know, but I am still sorry," I sighed.
"No need to be sorry," he responded. I then sat in Embry's arms for the next few minutes. It felt so good. Suddenly, I felt my thoughts drifting.
The memory wasn't like some of my other human memories. It wasn't blurred, it was actually very clear. It was the memory of that one day in social studies class when I wrote Casper Withlock in my test instead of Jasper Whitlock. I can't believe I did that. For some reason, my mind just was hovering on that memory.
I was pulled out of my thoughts when I heard a laugh from the other room. I could tell that it was Edward's laugh. I wonder what he found so funny. Maybe someone's thoughts or something? Maybe even my thoughts.
"What's so funny?" I heard Jasper enquire.
"Just something I heard in Kathrynn's thoughts," I heard Edward answer casually. Oh crap, I wonder what he found so funny. I continued to listen to them. It didn't really bother me that Edward and Jasper were talking about me like I couldn't hear them.
"You wouldn't believe it," Edward struggled to choke out in his laughter. "Kathrynn was thinking of one time she took a test in social studies. She didn't get enough sleep that night. It was on the civil war. She meant to write your name, Jasper Whitlock, but she accidentally wrote Casper Withlock. Apparently she used to mix up letters very often."
"I am going to get her for that," Jasper laughed with a joke menacing tone.
Abruptly, it all clicked. I had just put 2 and 2 together in my mind. Edward was telling Jasper my thoughts because, he was Jasper Whitlock before he was changed. Crap, I better run.
I quickly told Embry I had to run, and he let me go laughing a little bit. I started running, and before I knew it, I was in the forest. I heard Jasper chasing me, but I could care less at the moment. I had just smelled something really appealing. Coming up to it, I found it was a big mountain lion. I quickly drained it of its blood. Apparently, that was the perfect distraction for Jasper because once I finished quenching my newly found thirst, he grabbed my arm and spun me around. I could see a very playful expression on his face. I tried to pull my hand away, but it didn't exactly work. He had an iron grasp on me. As I tried to pull away, I suddenly felt a huge wave of heat go through my body. Then, I felt my arm shoot out of Jasper's grasp, and I seemed to be in a different body. Now, I was very determined that I wouldn't be tackled by Jasper.
"Holy crap," I suddenly heard Jasper yell. "Follow me, the rest of the family has to see this. Not knowing exactly what was going on, I followed Jasper back.
Alice POV
I was looking into Kathrynn's future, but it suddenly disappeared. One second I saw her living through Jasper's playful attack and going shopping with me tomorrow, next second I saw nothing. A few seconds later, I heard Jasper come back in, but instead of Kathrynn being with him, a big very white-furred werewolf was with him. I looked closely, and was able to recognize Kathrynn's features in the wolf. I guess Kathrynn's power is to change into a werewolf?
"Alice, can you get Kathrynn a mirror so she can see what she looks like?" Edward asked.
"I am on it," I said enthusiastically as I ran up the stairs. I was back with a small mirror within the next half minute.
Kathrynn POV
I was very confused, that was until Alice brought in the mirror. Everyone in the family, vampire and wolf, were all staring at me in astonishment. Looking in the mirror, I couldn't believe what I saw. I was a big giant, wolf? with fur as white as snow. I heard someone say to me to try to go back into vampire form, and I obeyed. I thought about being in my normal form, and a cold rush went through me, making me no longer a werewolf.
************
Still Kathrynn POV
It has now been about 2 days since my transformation. Yes, only two days. I have learned several things through the two days. Number 1, I can transform into a werewolf whenever I want. Sometimes though, my body just transforms when it feels it is necessary. Also, when I transform, my clothes don't rip just like the other werewolves. Also, I can eat like a wild animal when I am a wolf. I don't need to drink blood in that form. Best of all, in that form,I can sleep.
Number 2, I learned that I have a way of sensing Bella's shield when it is on me. That is the only power I can sense though. When the shield is around me, I can see a white light hovering over my head, just as I did the after my transformation. Number 3, Alice can see my future when I am in vampire form, but not when I am in wolf form. Number 4, I have the same unnatural immunity to human blood that Bella had after her change. Number 5, I should NEVER insult the confederate army unless I want to have a joke wrestling match with Jasper, and Finally, I will tell you the most powerful thing I learned.
Number 6, I love Embry, and I will live a happy life. I will be able to go to college. Actually, I can go to college as many times as I want. I have a wonderful life of eternity ahead of me. I can do basically whatever I want. I guess I was wrong when I said no one understood me. Instead of getting a punishment for a crime I didn't commit, I got the gift of a life of eternity with a family I love, not to mention it's a huge family. They all care about me, and I love them all so much.
I am really glad for the wonderful life of bliss that is ahead of me. I would now go on to live happily ever after. I know it may sound like the ending to a little kids fairy tail, but it is very true. Happily ever after is basically the only way I can describe my life now. Well, I guess I could say it in more formal terms such as, "Living happily for eternity," or "Living blissfully forever," Although, happily ever after works just as well. I think I have now gotten my point across. I now live a great, peaceful life. I will live a perfectly wonderful eternity.
