Lost but Never Gone Chapter 10: This City Is Far From Here, a twilight fanfic

A bloodstained shirt, seductive smile,

A bloodstained shirt, seductive smile,
with eyes full of hate and murders in style.

Teer jerked at the chain tethering him in panic as the sight of Emo's slightly flushed face disappeared behind the door. He smelled sadness and regret coming from the house. He saw her faintly in a black dress that he had never seen her wear. And the necklace she treasured so much was on her neck.

Emo lay the knife against her flesh and cut deep into her wrist as Teer watched growling and jerking at the chain harder than ever in an attempt to break free. He had made himself a promise to protect her and now he couldn't. But maybe the other werewolves could.

The sky turns red, the air is cold,
with one last chance to do as I'm told.

Jake lay in the shade head on his paws thinking of the girl, he knew Sam was tuned into his thoughts right now but didn't really care, maybe Sam could find some reason that this was happening that he couldn't.

Suddenly images flashed through his head.

A silver knife resting on black silk… flash…. Blood slowly dripping from pale wrists… flash… purple eyes staring at the sky… flash… a chain not breaking… flash… soft lips parting to inhale slowly… flash… a bloody knife falling to the ground… flash… words softly whispered came from the lips "I'm sorry"…Flash… a black dress splayed on the ground… now words accompanied the pictures.

A black necklace "she's dying"… a man kneeling over a woman weeping as his sons came to him "I promised I would protect her since I couldn't protect the third"… dark eyes turning to a bluish color surrounded by black fur "I am older than all of you, I am one of the first"... a girl laying in a pool of her own blood "Emo is dying, you must help"...

Jake recognized the girl and jumped up so fast that he seemed a blur. He started to run straight off, his russet fur shining as he moved. He knew the girl that had flashed in the images. It was the girl they had met the day before, the girl that had been in his every thought since, the one that had so confused him.

This city is far from here.
Now turn back, turn back. I'm scared,

Edward stared at the letter for the 15th time in the last hour. He could feel Bella slowly reading it over his shoulder, the words startled him greatly but the pictures startled him even more. How could this be his sister? How did she know about him?

Thoughts suddenly flashed through his mind…

Edward compared the girl in the photo's he held and then realized something, they where the same… there was an address attached to it and he read it slowly before calling Alice to ask her to check something.

but in the bright lights we fade
into the rearview mirror.

My life hadn't ended yet but the blood still flowed and the music still played, my lips softly parted to let out my gentle breaths and I enjoyed the last few minutes to an half an hour I had left.

This is the last attempt at a mere goodbye.
It's just beginning.

"Good bye." The words slipped through my lips like water from a fountain. My eyes fluttered to stare out the door for a second then back to the ceiling. I loved Teer but he was better off without me. "I'm sorry." I whispered and closed my purple eyes waiting for my time.

Does this story have an end?
Can you feel my empty heart
inside a box and barely beating?

Jake ran through the back woods and phased right outside of the house in the brush, quickly pulling on some pants he ran towards the house. Jake tried the door but it was locked, cursing he quickly put a fist through the window and opened it from the inside. Running in the house he nearly slipped on a pool of blood. It connected to a figure he adored so much, her eyes where shut and her lips barely parted. Her breast raised and lowered slowly as blood flowed from her wrists.

The walls are closing in.
So take my hand, we'll run forever 'till it ends.

Jake walked over to her and staring at her pale face, her lovely body, and the soft look of the blood on the floor spewing from her slitted wrists.

He knelt down and took her hand in his gazing at her with adoration and love. Tears slowly grew in his eyes as he saw her skin growing paler very slowly. The blood had slowed its flow to a mere trickle, she had a small more than a half an hour before her blood would be to low to recover.

Look what I've done now, you're dying from love and you're bleeding.
Why can't I just wake up from this life? 'cause I'm dreaming.

Jake softly lifted her so her upper torso lay on his knees cradling her head in his lap. Die Romantic was playing at that exact second and he listened to the music and compared it to this situation. She made a soft moan so he stroked her forehead softly, murmuring soft words. He was lost at what to do.

A soft smell hit his nose, it came from the blood, a faint sickly sweet smell, that of a vampire, but he could hardly smell it, it was so faint. So what did it mean? How could her blood smell like that if she was human?

Look what I've don't now, I'm sick of this town and I'm leaving.
Why can't I just wake up from this life? 'cause I'm dreaming.

These thoughts raced through Jake's head so he didn't here the approach of Sam. "JAKE!"

The exclamation made Jake jump and spin his head to look at Sam.

"What happened?" Sam ran over quickly and dropped to his knee's. "I didn't think you would do something like this!"

Jake glared at Sam. "She did it, I had nothing to do with it. I found her like this

"She's lost a lot of blood, but we can't move her…" Sam flinched suddenly and Jake knew he had caught the scent he had.

When Sam looked at him quizzically Jake could only shrug.

It doesn't matter much.
All those mistakes we made. We're though now
and we are leaving town tonight.

"I could see a girl laying on the ground, bleeding to death, a pill bottle next to her… then it all disappeared." Alice said. She looked at Edward with apologetic eyes.

Edward sighed and looked at Bella before extending his hand to her. "Will you come with me?" He asked softly.

Bella smiled slightly and set her hand in his. At the same time, Alice had pulled out her cell and was talking on it at such fast speed it seemed like a hum. She then finished quickly with a sudden nod and shut the phone.

"Carlisle will meet you outside the house." Alice said to Edward before finishing, "be careful."

Outside a broken dream,
I feel unusual but safe there,
like nothing can stop us now.

Edward ended up at the small house in a matter of minutes, the scent of blood strongly in his nostrils.

He quickly set down Bella who he held in his arms.

Carlisle stood right in front of Edward, a medical bag in his hands and a discontent look on his face and soon Edward knew why. The air reeked of werewolves.

So take my hand, we'll run forever 'till it ends.

Edward opened the door swiftly and rushed into see something he really had hoped to avoid. Emo lay helpless on the floor and her head was cradled in Jacobs lap. Breaths came slowly from her chest and he could only hear the faintest heartbeat. Sam stood up and snarled at Edward who growled back.

Look what I've done now, you're dying from love and you're bleeding.
Why can't I just wake up from this life? 'cause I'm dreaming.

Soon Carlisle had talked it out with Sam and he was allowed to approach and examine the wounds. He pulled out some things from his bag and soaked a string in alcohol as he applied something to one of her wrists making her cry out in pain. Jacob growled and Edward hissed at him making Jacob grit his teeth avoiding attacking Edward in front of Bella.

Look what I've don't now, I'm sick of this town and I'm leaving.
Why can't I just wake up from this life? 'cause I'm dreaming.

Pain…pain…I felt someone lift up my head and the voices where jumbled together. What they said didn't make any sense. I moaned softly and shifted waiting as I felt the blood flow from the slits I had made in my wrists.

Your sultry eyes, your common kiss,
I'm in disguise, it's something I miss.

Suddenly bright pain flashed through my wrists and I cried out, my eyes flashed open and I saw the face that had been in my house the other day, but only now it was much more beautiful and elegant than anything, it shown with gentle tears and a small bit of sweat as if he had been restraining himself from something.

Your lipstick smears, I'm feeling grey,
with not much time to take me away.

More pain shot through my arm and I whipped my head around to see someone sewing it up. I tried to move my arm not wanting anyone to try to keep me from dying but the grip I was in was to tight. I whimpered and a soft voice spoke. "Your going to be ok." It said.

"I don't want to be ok, let me die." I whispered in a cracked voice. Tears began to run from my eyes.

This city is far from here.
Now turn back, turn back. I'm scared,

Sam flinched as he saw some of the files on the girls computer. There where several pictures, dating back to 80 years ago. And in all of them only one person was the same. A small delicate girl who stared at the camera with an unhappy manner. As if saying she did not like what was happening right then. Sam knew it was the same girl on the floor that Jake had imprinted on.

The true shock was in the photo he found last. Her and a boy looking to similar to Edward sitting next to each other. Then some clippings telling about how the O'Conner boy had disappeared and how his mother had died. There where reports of a possible second child and it showed a picture of the girl's face.

but in the bright lights we fade
into the rearview mirror.

Jake flinched as she told him to let her die. Then a fierce feeling fell over him and he bared his teeth. "Never." He said as the tears streamed down her face. "I will never let you die."

Look what I've done now, you're dying from love and you're bleeding.
Why can't I just wake up from this life? 'cause I'm dreaming.
Look what I've don't now, I'm sick of this town and I'm leaving.
Why can't I just wake up from this life? 'cause I'm dreaming.

The last words Emo heard where. "I will never you die." She blacked out then hoping that her time had come at last.

Look what I've done now, you're dying from love and you're bleeding
