Chapter 10

Edward hadn't been home long just went straight to his room like normal, but he had an odd scent on him, like the one from school. I didn't pay much attention, because Emmet was trying to soak me with water and was failing quite badly. That's when it hit me, sweet scent of blood and it was animal, well at least it was sort of. Was mixed with something else, that also smelled delicious but I couldn't put my finger on it. The animal scent was too overpowering.

Emmet smelled it to and I saw him freeze at exactly the same time I did. My head whipped round to the source of the scent, just hidden slightly from sight, what looked like a dying animal.

I saw Emmet out of the corner of my eye make I slight movement into a crouching position, this wasn't going to end well I knew that but it didn't stop me. Just as I was about to pounce, when a blood chilling snarl sounded so loud, I turned my head and realised it was from Emmet and it wasn't from me either.

It was bad enough to stop Emmet and me mid hunt. That's when Edward flew from the house out of the top window and landed just between me and Emmet but just in front of us like he was guarding the lushes scent.

A feeling of fear hit me once I realised what I had actually come across, those golden eyes could never be mistaken, even with my blurred vision.

They got into predatory crouches and I readied myself for what was to come praying for it to be quick. Then an almighty snarl ripped from one of these creatures as I looked up briefly they both looked bewildered as to where it came from to.

Just at that moment there was a crash of glass and then a loud thud and there was a figure standing just in front of me and facing them growling and snarling making the other two back off.

Once things were a bit calmer I recognised a familiar scent amongst all the commotion and realised I was in safe hands once again and fell into the darkness.

As I got home I didn't want to talk to anybody so went straight to my room, I put on some music even though I couldn't block out the sound and thoughts from outside.

Nearly an hour later their thoughts changed drastically into hunter mode and there was something about a sweet scent that was when it hit me. It couldn't be but I didn't have time to decide that I had to act. The quickest way to do that was out the window. With a great snarl I hurtled through the window and landed on my feet with a thud just in front of the overpowering sweet scent.

Alice and Emmet backed off, able to control themselves as they had only just got back from hunting any other time it might have been a different story.

Once all calmed I turned on my heels to see a blood soaked, drenched feline but it had that unmistakable scent that I had recently gotten used to.

I picked up the limp body of the cat, it was tiny no bigger than a house cat, it was only the scent that kept me from doubting myself.

I rushed the feline into the house it was unconscious and fading fast, I ran up to Carlisle's office. I grabbed the doctor's bag and equipment I needed and cleared the table. I then steamed the bleeding and gave the cat fluids, then cleaned the wound which was quite nice long gash long a claw mark. I stitched it up and bandaged the wound. I gave her more fluids when was needed other than that all I could do was let her rest and prey that she comes round.

It took a couple of days for the cat to regain consciousness but once awake she seemed a lot perkier. But she didn't talk like I thought and she didn't morph either. I felt sure it was Bella but as the days went by I became less certain.

5 days later the cat was still the same, better now but still the same, obviously it wasn't Bella, just had an odd scent about it. The cat was quite attached to me always around me now it was up and about. It was all over me purring and hissing at everyone else was odd behavior but I put it down to I was its savior. It had been about a week now and I was getting tired of expecting it turn into a human girl I had to get rid of it, and also I was worrying where bella actually was she has been missing since I last saw her.

I rung around and found a pound that would take her, it was for the best she didn't need to be round predators that eat her cousins on a regular basis. As I went to collect the cat she hissed at me and backed into the corner.

"Hey girl it's me, why you being odd" she hissed again and that's when I saw her body ripple. I recognize that and I stepped closer she hissed again and took a swipe at me. "whoa calm down, I won't take you to the pound then" her body rippled again and I saw it was taking a lot out of her, she jump on to my bed and hauled herself under the blanket a few seconds later the small feline turned into the most beautiful girl I have ever seen, just like the first time had seen her all over again.

Her beautiful brown eyes fluttered then opened and just stared straight up at me, her face pale and looking slightly out of breath. She curled up in the blanket like she was in pain.

I snapped out of it and came down next to her. "Bella are you okay, what hurts" I was so worried I looked at her arm but she was nearly healed there. I searched her face for any hint.

In a very hoarse voice she answered me "I'm okay just give me a minute" it was so quite so weak sounding. I just sat next to her holding her hand I could almost feel the pain ripping through her body through the tension in her hand.

Eventually it calmed and she opened her eyes fully with a small smile on her full lips. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen.

"Oh Bella" I sighed and lent down close to her and placed a kiss on her forehead.

I could feel myself inside this little body, but I was hiding it was much better just to let the animal take over and to cease fighting anymore. I just felt far to weak. I had come round from my sleep and was slowly getting better.

Edward was my constant companion, and anyone else who came to close was an intruder. The animal was taking over day by day and I was regressing slowly giving in. I was enjoying the simple life.

I did get a feeling that Edward was no longer happy and wanted rid of me, but I didn't expect so soon. He came for me that day I knew something was different he was talking about a new home with little kids. I knew my time had come to stop hiding and take charge of this beast inside me.

The shivering started as I saw him come closer to me, I hissed at him to back off. Then the ripping and pulsing tore through my body. I could feel bones and organs protesting. That's when he came closer and I lashed out, I didn't mean to just the pain was unbearable. I crawled up to the bed and under the blanket, as the fire consumed my body and exploded in my head with immense pressure my body morphed into my human form.

The pain was still present through my body as I got used to this new form that I have not adorned for at least a week. I just lay then weak and out of breath, as I look into his eyes I see fear and concern but something else, like he was admiring something beautiful beyond belief. I gave him a quick smile as the pain in my body lessened and eventually died away only leaving a mild ache like a bruise over my whole body.
