*** Chapter 11 ***

Jillian awoke to find herself resting in Jared's cool embrace. She smiled at this beautiful sleeping man. 'Wow, I can't believe he picked me' she thought to herself.

"Well, you are my angel Jill" Jared answered, his eyes still sombre, but a smile spreading across his pink lips.

"Were you reading my thoughts love?" Jill turned a little red.

"Maybe a few . . ."

Jill leaned around to find searching lips. They embraced with a new passion that arose. The night before had set fireworks off inside of them. This passion was like none other.

Jared broke away from the kiss for a breath of air, and looked to the sky."Almost dark love. We need to get there tonight. Elena needs us."

Jill arose from his arms and pulled him up with her. She looked deep into his golden eyes and whispered."I love you, and we will get there in time, I know it. No matter what happens, we will get Elena home and safe." She quickly kissed his lips one more time and then jumped to the ground. Jared was not far behind.

"So what's our plan? Did Amy tell you what Sam wanted Jill?" Jared quietly asked.

"Well, my guess would be that he wants to kill me for letting him die and 'do nothing about it'". She raised their hands to make the quotation marks. Jared just smiled.

"Ok so here is my idea. We get into Fell's View, and I know where they will be waiting. They will try to split us up so we are one on one." Jillian shivered. "So what I think is, we need to do is, you stay hidden in the forest and let me go in first. I can see where they have Elena. They will think I came alone and maybe I can fight them off."

Jillian didn't like the sound of that at all.

"WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO!? ASK TO GET KILLED!? NO! NO! NO! THERE IS NOWAY ARE YOU GOING IN ALONE! WE STICK TOGETHER!"

"Ok ok sorry love"

"Sorry, but we need to do this together." Jill thought about Sam's fighting skills. His motive and his tactics. All pointing to one person. Jill. Jill was what he wanted, and they knew that. How can they get Elena out and Jared for that matter so Sam and Jill could fight this?

"Wait, where will they be hiding?"

"There is an old brick factory half burned down, on the outskirts of town. They will be inside waiting. Why?"

Jill picked up their pace to a full run. "Because I have a plan now! Let's go were almost there. You will see Elena tonight if I can help it!"

Jared picked up his pace and ran with the speed of a cheetah, the power from inside radiating out every limb. Jillian had a hard time keeping up. They ran for 2 hours before they found the town lines and the sweet smell of Vampire scents running through town.

Jared never asked about the plan. Jillian kept running it through her head and Jared simply listened to her thoughts. 'Ah that's a great plan!! Wow love you are a smart one!' He knew that this would work. The only worry he had was 'Would Elena be one of us, or still be Elena?' Would she be a vampire or still human? Jared ran those thoughts through his mind. He needed to focus if they were going to pull this one off.

"Jill, shh slow down, they will be in hearing distance soon. I can almost hear them"

"Ok, so a few things you should know. You heard my plan right?" Jared shook his head, 'yes'. "Ok , because once we get in there, Sam can hear your thoughts as well, but you need to be careful because he can change them to so don't think about the plan, Elena, or me ok?" Jillian began to shake. 'God Jared please just don't think, just do!'

"Jill stop."

"What?" With tears in her eyes, she stopped and looked up at him. His eyes were piercing and ready for a fight. He would fight for both his girls now and he wouldn't give up on either of them.

"Angel, I love you, we can do this! Just have some faith." He hugged her tightly, feeling the warm tears falling onto his breast. He took a deep breath and said "Are you ready?"

Jill backed away and stood tall.

"Yes. Yes I am!" And a growl emerged from her chest.

'Sam was going to pay for this.'
