***** I am blonde, I have Green-Gray eyes, SM looks nothing like me, therefore, I am not she and she is not me. I only own my own characters. :(

Also, Thanks Everyone who reviewed, added me on story alert, added me as a favorite author etc. I have so many messages in my inbox because I haven't checked them in two weeks, and so, I'm not mentioning everybody today. Sorry.

The song is Her Diamonds by Rob Thomas. I know it doesn't really make sense…but I just like the song.

Read On!

Chapter 10: She'll be alright, just not tonight.

Taylor PoV

I think I am ready to believe him. I have seen that wolf every morning on my walks, and quite a few times at night when I look out my window. The wolf is actually really big, but the strangest part of it was not its' size, but its' eyes. It has human eyes.

Plus, every morning I get a rose and a note from Embry. I sighed. I missed him.

I heard a tap on my window. Embry? I went and opened the window.

It was Collin. "Taylor, you need to come with me, right now." His tone was very urgent.

"What is it?" I asked.

"They will tell you when we get to Emily's. Do you trust me?" He asked as I climbed out my window.

"Sure," I said, pretty UNSURE.

"Alright," and he walked into the woods behind my house. Okay, I'm sorry but I just snuck out of my house for you and you walk away? I turned to climb back in my window, but a high pitched whine stopped me. Where Collin had gone into the woods, a huge red wolf came out.

"Collin?" I asked, disbelieving. It nodded its head, then motioned for me to get on his back. When I didn't move, he came up and licked my hand. I backed up, my back was solidly against my house. Was it really Collin? Was Embry telling the truth the whole time? The wolf turned away, back into the forest. Collin came back out of the forest. "Collin, Did you just see that wolf? It was huge. I was beginning to think that maybe Embry was telling the truth, but who am I kidd-"

"That was me!" He cut me off, sounding exasperated, "Now, we are going to try this one more time, and this time, when I come out in wolf form, you will get on my back so we can get to Sam and Emily's faster."

"Uh, no thank you."

"Come on, Tay. Please?"

I took a deep breath, "Okay," I agreed. Now I was nervous. He left and the wolf reappeared again. I clambered onto Collins back, and grabbed a hold of his neck. Immediately, he shot off into the forest behind my house. He was running really fast. Why weren't we hitting trees? Why did I trust this wolf? It might not even be Collin; it could be just a really elaborate prank, that's very potentially lethal! Oh no, I'm going to die. I'm going to die, I'm going to die. Im too young to die! I closed my eyes just as the wolf stopped. I climbed off, and my knees gave way. The wolf shot off. Did I seriously just do that?

I stood up and walked up to the front door, but before I could knock, the door was flung open and Kim pulled me into a hug. "I'm so glad you're here and safe! Oh, I missed you!" She took in my frazzled appearance, "did that boy make you ride on his back?" I nodded

"So it's all real?"

"All of it." Emily said grimly.

"Oh my goodness!" I said, awestruck, "Wait, so why am I needed here?"

"There is a group of Vampires-" Rachel began

"Vampires!" I interrupted, my voice squeaking.

"And one of our friend vampires had a vision of them coming here, so we got worried, and the boys have gone to stop them."

"That isn't safe! They should be at home!" I exclaimed, worried for Embry.

"It's their duty, to fight vampires."

"Oh." Then it hit me. I might not see Embry ever again, and I wouldn't get to say sorry, or tell him I loved him. I burst into tears on the kitchen floor.

"Shhh," Emily shushed me, "It's going to be alright, I promise," No one has ever died before, Embry will come back safe. I promise," through my tears, I could see all the worry in every girl's eyes. So no werewolf had ever died in a fight before, but that didn't mean that one couldn't die. A thout occurred to me, they all got to say goodbye.

"I'm sorry, i'm sorry, im sorry" I picked up the mantra that I had used when Giselle passed out on that night.

"He knows, honey, he knows" I let Emily hold me in her arms. We all stayed together in that kitchen for who knows how long, we were scared to look at the clock. We stayed silent as well, so it was a surprise when we heard a growl and a whimper outside the back window.

Paul PoV

There were five vampires. We had started a big fire down on the beach and had succeeded in killing four of them. The rest of the pack was taking care of them when Embry and I noticed one slip away up in the direction of Emily's house.

We got Sam and Jared. The four of us followed the girl. She was beautiful, but apparently so hungry that she wasn't paying attention. She didn't hear any of us, we got her down easily. Sam and Jared phased and took care of getting her down to the beach. We were going to check on the girls.

It was then that I heard it, a low growl. I had the best hearing of the pack, so when I halted, Embry simply told me to hurry up. Did you hear that man?

Hear what? Embry asked.

I dunno, it sounded like a growl.

You're hearing things dude. He was probably right. I was hearing things, I told myself. I start running to catch up with Embry, but I heard it again.

Seriously dude, I just heard it again.

Stop Paul, you are being paranoid. As if on cue, a vampire jumped from the trees, snarling.

Embry, turn around! I mentally yelled as the vampire jumped on Embry's back and cut three deep gashes in Embry's' back all in one swift movement. He howled, and shifted back to human.

As humans, we were much weaker than when we were werewolves. The vampire jumped off of him and leaned down. Before I knew it she bit him. I pounced on her from behind and pulled her off. The pack heard the distress in my thoughts and a few came running, the rest stayed on the beach to finish the fire they had started.

Aw man, Embry! Seth got there first.

Seth, can you go get Dr. Cullen?

Seriously? He asked, incredulously.

Just do it! I heard Quil growl from behind me. Seth ran. Quil and I phased and put our shorts on, quickly. We picked up Embry and carried him inside.

Emily heard us and walked out from the kitchen. She gasped and wordlessly pointed us to the couch. She disappeared into the kitchen and returned with a sponge, a bowl of water, and a crying Taylor.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised to see her, it is imprinting. "Oh my goodness." She gasped out. And she just sat down on the floor in the middle of the living room.

***** Why I am not the worst person in the world: My computer Broke. :( and my docX thingy isn't working, so this chapter hasn't been beta-ed. Sorry
