Author note: I must ask people who wrote me telling they didn't liked the ones that wrote about something when not having read it first for the first mistake I think I have made. Edward and Bella are already married but she has still not been turned, yes?
Anyway, it doesn't change the fact that they are 'attending' to a university, that Jacob still is a bit angry cause Edward married Bella who he was in love with and that he is free, right?
Anyway, if you think I made another mistake then tell me and I'll correct it too. Thanks for your comprehension; here goes another chapter.
Formal excuses to readers: Sorry cause I'm publishing chapter 8 before chapter 7. The reason is simple, the 7th is in my home's computer and it seems someone sent me a virus so I have to ask someone to take the information from there and then clean the virus out of the computer before publishing it, so I as for patience while I fix it. Sorry… I'll try to fix it the sooner the best.

Chapter 8: Premonitions.
"Last one done." I said rubbing my hands against my thighs to clean them. "Ok, now… the last one."
It's been some time since I went Forks so as to chase those evil vampires killing people at that lands, not concretely Forks, it would have been a problem the Cullen, the vampire coven there. I have no doubt they would have managed to stop it before it spread more; in fact they helped me while I was working there.
Anyway, now the last one has flown away from those lands; so it was my time to also fly away chasing him. And I say him because I've finally managed to identify it as a male whose friend I killed, just it wasn't his friend but his mate and 'spouse'.
"So you are to chase her." Emmeret asked me.
"Aye." I said. "Even if I have to track her until the very end of the world."
"And what about the man I've kept on seeing from time to time?" Alice asked me. "He seems to be tracking something."
"Well if he arrives here then look into the matter, if not... I bet he was chasing something else." I said.
"So you are forgetting about Bella?" Edward asked me.
"No." I recognised. "But I have something now that could help me. She handed it to me." I then showed him big hand-made book I had treasured at my baggage. "A handwritten story with all that happened her until now. I expect this can show me a bit more than what you allow me. And not physically met here."
"See?" Alice said smiling. "Bella has always been a clever girl, my sister-in-law."
"It's a pity I've not had time to met Edward and her better." I said. "Pity, maybe next time."
"Soon then." Alice said smiling as if she knew and making us look at her. "I've got that impression."
"Pity you have to leave before meeting Carlisle." Esme told me. "He is working right now..."
"I'll visit him before leaving." I said ending packing the last of my things. "My old friend... I would be rather rude if I just left without saying goodbye."
"By the way, what about the little territorial problem with werewolves and us?" Edward reminded me lying against a wall. "You've still not solved it."
"I trust Carlisle and Billy will be able to reach an agreement. Anyway, when I'm done with this matter, maybe I could return for a bit and have another look into the matter. And Bella's matter." I added looking straight into Edward's eyes.

I put everything at my car and so I drove until the frontier to Quileutes' lands; there I blew my dog-calling whistle and then I head a loud howl nearly immediately. I smiled, I knew it could be a bit painful for them cause the noise was too acute for humans, anyway it was really effective, cause soon I saw four wolves arriving so I covered my eyes smiling to allow them to untransform and put on their trousers.
"What's up now?" Sam asked me a bit dryly. "You know that noise is annoying."
"Yep, but I'm sure you guys hear it, and I just blow it for a couple of seconds." I said smiling and hiding it at my robes again. "I came to say bye. The elder one has ran away and he's gone out of these lands, I'm going to chase him, after all, I think I've got an idea on what he was after."
"You… you are leaving?" Jacob asked me confused to the go a bit sad.
"I've got duties to take along." I said softly and also with a bit of pity. "Anyway, I'll be back soon, I still have to check if you were able to find a solution to the territorial problems with Cullens."
"And if we don't?" He said.
"Then I would have to stay here longer when I could be needed other place." I said. "Anyway, don't tempt my bosses too much or they would ask me to do something I would hate."
"You would not dare." Sam said turning his eyes into two slides at his face. "Not against a full pack."
"Don't say nonsenses." I said. "Of course I would not dare to harm you. You are nice people."
"Hey, 'Vamp-lash', we are going to miss you." Embry said joking. "Try giving that bloodsucker a beating up for us too, right?"
"Take that for granted." I said smiling.
"Ok, you came to say bye, you've done it… then go." Sam told me.
"Get going." Jacob said. "I'll stay a bit longer."
Then the other three looked at him and so Sam nodded.
"We will see you at the reserve then." Sam answered him.
"Hey, Bella 2." Quil said getting near and opening his arm to hug me. "Come back too when you're done with that work, ok?"
"Yep, promise." I said.
"We will miss you." Embry said hugging me too. "You are the only one in your kind that doesn't stink so much."
That made me nearly laugh.
Sam didn't hug me, he just shook hands with me and they left for the woods so I saw them disappear while Jacob stayed there.
"So Jacob?" I told him. "Wanted to say anything they couldn't hear?"
"I… I'd like to go with you." He said.
"Sorry, I need you here to make sure that stubborn of Sam and your grandfather speak with Carlisle." I told him. "Anyway, it will take me not long to track that man. I'll soon be back."
"Three days? A week?" He told me.
"Don't know, maybe it takes me a bit longer." I said. "A year or two. Anyway, time is not really important for the people of my kind."
"Are you leaving right now?" He asked me a bit sadly.
"Ah, no." I said. "I planned to first visit Carlisle at the hospital to try and say bye to him too, then… I suppose I will drive to the nearest airport and try if I can get a plane. By the way, did you manage to get me the little present I asked you for?"
"I left it at my home." He said. "Billy spent the whole night writing it while I was out patrolling with the guys."
"Ok, don't worry." I said. "I'll come back later so you can hand it to me."
"Can't I go with you to…?" He began.
"I want to say bye to Carlisle." I said. "They would not allow you in there anyway."
He then put a sad face and so I laid my hand at his head as if he was a kind of gigantic dog instead of a guy.
"I'll come back later." I said smiling. "You will be able to say bye later."
I found a bit weird while I drove away from there seeing him disappear at the woods too. I knew he did that on respect towards me, cause when he was a wolf, he was naked and so.
The way to the hospital was not too hard, there were not much cars around. However, when I arrived there, things were a bit harder. It took me a bit to be able to see Carlisle.
"Oh, didn't expected to see you around here." He said a bit surprised to see me there.
"Came to say bye." I just said. "I'm going away to track the elder vampire back all this murders, anyway, I'll be back here after that."
"Edward has still not allowed Bella and you to meet." He said sighing. "Understand him, he wants to protect his wife."
"I can understand him." I nodded. "But he is making things worse for all. Specially for her and I."
"Well…" He said.
"No well, he is." I said. "You know nobody could be a great match against Vulturis. Not even if your family and I joined."
"So you are leaving and then you will come back, aren't you?" He asked me.
"That's it." I nodded.
"How are you travelling?" He asked me.
"I'm going by car to the airport, then I will try seeing where he went and then I'll take a plane to chase him. It's going to take me a bit but…"
There was a little silence.
"We will keep an open eye just in case." He said.
I would have hug him, but I knew what he used to do on those times and I just shook hands thanking him for the hospitality at his home and then I left.

"So she really went to visit you to the hospital, didn't her?" Rosalie asked.
"Yes, it was weird." Carlisle said. "She didn't seem to know where she was going."
"I bet she commanded something before leaving." Edward asked.
"No, but I offered to keep an open eye just in case we could see anything." Carlisle said.
"I still have her phone number." Alice said. "If I saw anything I told her I would call her."
"Well thought." Esme said.
"It's a pity I didn't say her bye." Bella said.
"It's not such." Edward said. "Now she is not around we will be more relaxed cause she will not attack you from a moment to another."
"Edward, you've been unfair with her all this time." Carlisle said looking at him. "She has never even attempted to get her. It's not on her style to just kill a human cause he or she knows about us. If you had made the effort, maybe you would have seen she is not that bad after all."

"Finally gone." Sam said. "Anyway, it seems peace has returned again."
"Pity, I would have liked to say bye to her." Emily said softly. "She was nice."
"Do you think she had anything to do with that hunter Billy and Quil told us about?" Jared asked.
"Well, if she had not then it was a bit suspicious she knew so much about it." Embry said.
"I wonder how Jacob is to take it." Quil said sadly. "She could be a vampire, but she was somehow nice, and didn't looked much as a bloodsucker."
"Poor Jacob…" Emily sighed sad. "First Bella now the other Bella girl... He must be sad."
"He must be wandering around." Paul stated standing up. "I'll look for him."
"Leave him alone." Sam said. "It was written it would end like this. A werewolf and a vampire must never be that closely related… imprinted or not."

I was still at Jacob's arms. He was nearly burning me despite of the robes I still wore and due to the huge temperature difference between his body and mine. Anyway, I didn't mind much.
"Jacob." I then interrupted him. "I'm not leaving to the world's end. I'll come back before you realise I'm gone."
"I'm going to miss you a lot." He said on a cracked voice. "I'd want to go with you…"
"Jacob, you can't and you must not." I told him finally released from his arms that seemed in fire when he hugged me. "Your place is here, with your tribe, with your people and… with your pack."
"And why can't you just…" He began.
"Jacob, I have to leave." I said. "That's my work, my life. I chase evil things, from werewolves to vampires causing trouble in this world."
"And what if you don't come back?" He asked a bit bothered and shaking from head to toe for a moment.
"Calm up, I'll come back." I told him laying my hands at his shoulders so as to calm him faster and prevent him from turning into a werewolf. "I'll just be away for a time and then I'll come back, I promise you I'll return a day or another when I'm done with this trouble."
He didn't seemed too fond on believing it anyway, he ended letting me go, looking at me sad while I rode my car along the dusty road to then turn into his wolf form and begin wandering around the woods following the car way from the tree-line, watching me leave until he reached the end of their territories and then howling high so I heard him while I got further from there.
He then began running along the forests and meanwhile I felt how I was a bit sad for first time in a long long time.
Since I lost Carrick I had not felt that sad. Yet loosing him was the worse by far in all those years of damned existence, the beginning and the end of my actual path.
Aye, if I chose this path of killing evil people not minding if they were vampires or werewolves was because of that.
"Hello, miss." The girl at the other side of the counter at the airport counter of purchase of plane tickets told me. "How can I help you?"
"I'd like to purchase a ticked towards Canada." I said.
"Toronto?" She asked me.
Then I saw it better, it was not Canada where he had gone, it was too snowed for being there. I then saw a baby of Arctic seal being attacked by that man and shook my head.
"I want a ticket to get to Antarctica, please." I said smiling.
"We don't cover… that destiny." She said.
"I'm studying the Adélie Penguins there and I have to reach there, did you heard?" I said.
"I'm sorry, but…" She said.
"Never mind, I'll call my boss and tell him…" I said getting way.
It was not my boss who I was calling, of course; in all this years, I had made several contacts; so in three hours time, I was travelling on the warehouse of an army plane, surrounded by ten men.
"Thanks for having came to look for me." I said.
"I owed you one." The sergeant told me doing a military sign. "I suppose I still owe you that one."
"Never minds." I said smiling. "You've changed your route to pick me up and drop me there."
"Anyway, what are you looking so far from your home?" He asked me.
"I'm studying the Adélie Penguins there." I said to make him laugh.
"Ok, ok." He said. "Get ready, we will soon arrive."
"Aye, my sergeant." I said kidding.

It took me just a few minutes to jump from the plane, fall down fast and then open my parachute to end up landing smoothly at the big ice and snow covered tundra.
When I landed I did signals to the plane that then left again.
"Ok, now let's see if I can find the track." I said rubbing my hands softly. "At least I know that here I can hunt more or less freely as there are not going to be any humans to keep appearances for…"
