JACOB: Took ya long enough.

Me: I know, I know!! Sorry about that.

Jacob: Sorry doesn't make up for me having to be stuck in this computer. Do you know what they did to me?

Me: No, what?

Jacob: That idiot David painted my room pink.

Samantha: Your friends painted my room black.

Jacob: So? It's only paint.

Samantha: And so is the pink.

David: Um…about that…

Samantha: It's not paint?

David: Yeah, it is. It just doesn't come off and can't be painted over.

Jacob: WHAT!!!

Samantha: Oh my GAWD!! Seriously?? I knew there was another reason why I love you.

Quil: Samantha…there was something Sam wanted me to tell you….

Samantha: What?

Quil: I can't remember. Hold on…it's on the tip of my tongue…

Samantha: Sam? What did you want?

Sam: To tell you to get your damn boyfriend over to my room and paint over this pink!!

Quil: No. It wasn't that…

Samantha: You painted his room pink, too?

David: OOOhhhh, yeah!!!

Me: Well, while I sort this all out, this chapter is written by me, but the characters are on loan from Steph Meyer. Have fun!!!!

UPDATE: Samantha just broke up w/ David so she can't hurt him. They're all in Seattle.

I ran blindly through the streets of Seattle, tears blinding my sight. I could feel my entire body shaking, and I knew what was coming. My only challenge was finding a clear path to the woods before it came on or risk hurting others.

The streets were starting to empty out, and the moon was rising quickly above the tall towers of the city. I couldn't turn and look back at the hotel where I knew the one person who loved me was still standing, as shocked as could be. I wondered if Jacob and Sam had found out what happened yet.

I knew they would follow me, just in case. They just wouldn't let me know. And that, I could live with.

I found a small patch of woods set off to the side of the city. It seemed almost too quiet. All the animals had gone off into their homes to rest for the upcoming day. A barren cycle of waking up, living, and going back to sleep. I envied them. Not having to worry about hurting others constantly, not having to worry about whether or not they would kill their family by just getting too angry, or too upset about practically nothing. They weren't freaks.

I hit the woods and changed, running first on two legs, then on four. Images of the hotel I wanted so much to get rid of swam through my head. Jacob's thoughts. I cringed and kept running, pushing his thoughts to the back of my head along with the rest of mine. I focused only on running and breathing.

You know he's crushed, right? I nodded slowly, escaping Seattle as quickly as I could. I knew I hurt him emotionally, but that was way better than physically. I would never be able to live if I hurt him.

But you're hurting him now. So what if it's not physical? It could turn into that. You know how fragile people can be. I shook my head quickly, hoping it was like an etch-a-sketch, wiping away the image of Sam that first day, running a knife clean through his hand and not leaving a single scratch.

It's too bad he's not going to be just a human much longer. I stopped dead in my tracks. He couldn't possibly be saying--

Yep. He's one of us. If you can get it from just one side, he's doomed. He's a mix of both. Mother and father. Neither knew it. The bloodsuckers weren't around then. But now that they're back…he'll be joining us soon enough. I don't know how long I stood rooted to that spot. Probably as long as David stood in the hallway, staring blankly at the plain white wall in front of him.

Jacob had left just after that, going back to help force David back into the bedroom and talk to the family of bloodsuckers who were dutifully following us 'just in case'. Apparently, it was a huge personal loss for them, but Edward owed Jacob. Something about keeping Bella alive when he left.

One of them came by a few hours later with a fresh shopping bag. Her short, black hair whipped in the cool air as she ran as fast as she could into the clearing where I sat, dropped the bag and explained that they were for me when I wanted to come back. If I wanted to come back. She seemed mad that she couldn't tell me if I was or wasn't. I shrugged it off and took the clothes out of the bag.

"You know, Edward says he'll be changing soon. Well, as far as either of us could tell. I can't see anything with you four around, you know."

"See?" I asked as I ducked around a tree to change. She turned her back towards me.

"I can normally see the future. It's not the most exact, but I still wouldn't want to give it away." She mumbled.

"Sorry about that. What does Edward do?"

"Reads minds." She answered shortly, as if we were talking about the weather rather than her brother's abnormal vampire abilities.

"And I thought being a wolf was strange."

"Oh, don't worry. It's plenty strange." That was when she left me, too. The clothes fit me perfectly, and the price tag dangling off the shirt sleeve said the tiny silk shirt was worth almost eighty dollars. I wondered whether she bought it or if David did. It seemed like the type of thing he would buy, but by now I couldn't be sure.

I walked slowly out of the woods, a million thoughts clouding my mind. David was a werewolf. My David was doomed to a lifetime of being a freak.

But why does it bother me so much? I sighed out loud. A couple of passer-bys stared at me. It did bother me that he was a monster. And somehow, it didn't bother me that I was a monster.

"You aren't a monster. Or a freak." I spun around to see another one of those vampires stalking behind me. Edward.

"You're the only one who thinks so." I whispered back, hugging my arms to my chest.

"Don't worry about Alice. She's just mad that she can't see what Bella will want for dinner or whatever."

"Why can't she see around us?" His eyes cringed together. After a minute, he answered.

"Your changing relies on your emotions. Who's to say you won't change right now?" I nodded. He was right.

"So who's telling him?" I stood stalk still again. Telling him. I never thought of that. But I had to be the one to tell him.

"He'll like that." Edward whispered. "Why don't you go tell him now?"

"I'm gonna."

Me: Sorry about the shortness again!!! But Quil still gets to review (sorry...i promised him!!)

Quil: Well...let's see...first...ali93: DUH!! she said she didn't want to hurt david. thou i dont know y not. he's really annoying. Maybe now that he's a wolf too they both can get rid of eachother!!!

Jade-hime: Why did you have to tell her to hit me? that hurt!! She had Samantha hit me! And then everyone else started hitting me too!! And how can you not like The Quil Man!!

Kim: DON'T YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT TOUCHING CLAIRE!!! and yeah...i got tired of trying 2 remember the numbers. And the miracle wore off. She didn't update for 2 months.

Me: Hey!! that wasn't my fault!!

Quil: Whatever. Next: Toffeecakesxox: toffee cakes? Are those like coffee cakes? I'm not allowed to drink coffee. I don't know why.
