J POV

What the hell just happened to me? What have I done? Why have I turned into this?

Those questions repeatedly went on in my mind and I just didn't understand what was going on.

"Welcome Jacob, you are now one of us" A voice said in my head. I'm listening to voices in my head now? That's it, I've officially gone crazy.

"You are not crazy Jacob, this is part of who you are. What we all are" The voice said again. I was on my way back to the clearing where I had just been with Mia...

"I hurt her, I fucking hurt her!" I screamed in my head. I was on my way back to her, to see what damage I had caused and to help her. But I stopped in my tracks when I saw Edward and his father picking her up by a tree she was slumped against. A strong scent was stinging my nose. I hid away into the bushes so they couldn't see me, and I saw the blood dripping from her arm.

"I'm a monster" I thought and I let out a howl, but really I wanted to cry properly as a human.

Edward then turned around and walked towards the bush I was behind. I ran off before I was seen.

"It was an accident Jacob" The voice said and I could then see in my head where the voice was coming from.

I ran deep into the woods towards it, was this voice coming from another wolf like me? That's when I saw them, a huge black wolf and a Gray one. Who were they?

"Did you not recognize my voice Jacob? Its me, Sam Uley!" The black wolf said.

"Huh? You're a wolf too?"

"Yes and so is Paul here and Jared. Your friend Embry phased earlier tonight and he too is one of us now"

Embry too? I couldn't believe it. Those old Quileutes stories my dad told were true?

"Yes Jacob, I was the first one to phase and I am the alpha of this pack."

Sam told me about what it was like for him when he first phased and Paul told me about his experience. But none of them were half as bad as mine because I phased in front of a human and I hurt her.

"Your not the only one who hurt someone you care about" Sam said, and I could see through is mind how Emily had got her scars.

"It hurts me everyday Jacob" He said and I could feel the guilt he felt. But I wondered why Emily was still with him after that.

"I...imprinted on her" He said.

"What does that mean? Is it a wolf thing?" I was learning something new every minute.

"It means we were born to be together. She is my soul mate, my other half. It's supposed to be a rare thing but Jared has imprinted too"

"But what about Leah? You hurt her pretty bad..."

"I know, but it was never intentional. I didn't want to imprint on Emily but it just happened from the moment I first saw her. It's like love at first sight only stronger"

Imprinting didn't sound too good from what I was hearing. Having your life chosen for you, it just didn't seem like real love.

"It is real love Jacob, what could be better than finding the one person who understands you the most? Who will always be there for you? Who will put up with the bad things? Nothing is greater than finding your perfect match"

I guess Sam and Emily's love was pretty strong. I mean, she actually stayed with him after what he did to her.

We were interrupted by a strong scent, a disgusting one at that. I recognized this scent, I had definitely smelt this it before.

"What is that scent?" I asked, I really couldn't stand it.

"That is the scent of a vampire, Jacob"

Vampire? Another legend that was true?

"Yes, they are the cold ones, our mortal enemies. They are the reason why we turn into wolves. We are protectors now Jacob, we protect the humans from... them"

"This scent came off one of the Cullens, do you think they-"

"Yes Jacob, they are vampires. And your friend is dating one"

I couldn't believe it, but it all made sense now. That is why Bella always smelled so bad after she had been with them, that is why I couldn't stand being near Alice, because she was my enemy... a vampire.

Sam then ordered us to follow him, we were going after the vampires. We stopped onto the clearing, a place that brought back so much guilt. I could see blood on the grass, blood that was spilled because of me.

We could then see two Cullens coming towards us, it was Edward and his brother. We growled at them and I was more than ready to attack. They took Mia, what if they had killed her? I was going to kill them.

"Jacob, is that you?" Edward then said.

"What the hell? how does he know who I am?" I said to Sam.

"I think he can read our minds, it's his own power" Sam said and it made me growl even more at him.

I couldn't get Mia out of my mind, it's my fault if she is dead.

"She isn't dead, she is safe and well in my home. I can see in your head what happened" Edward said.

The events of earlier were playing around in my mind, I couldn't stop picturing Mia hurt and blooded on the ground. All caused my me.

"Why did you leave her? You left her on her own, she could have bled to death" That was enough to get me angry.

"He ran away because he didn't know what he was and he was scared he would hurt her again. He did come back for her but you blood suckers got there first" Sam said, I was thankful that he said that on my behalf.

"My father has looked after her and Bella is with her now. I suggest that you keep away from her before you cause her anymore pain, Jacob"

"I swear if you hurt her or Bella I will kill you in an instant" I snarled back at him.

"I would never harm Bella, I love her. And I will never harm Mia because we do not feed off human blood, you should know that"

So at least that part of the legend was true, they weren't killers. But that doesn't change anything, they are still our enemy and you know what they say, keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

"The treaty still stands, do not hunt on our lands" Sam said.

"That is fine. And Jacob? You better hope that Mia doesn't figure out what you really are. I doubt she would take the news lightly"

"If you tell her, I will tear you apart and burn the remains" How dare he threaten me.

"That wasn't a threat. She was here when you phased, she might already know what you are. How are you going to explain that?"

"That is not your concern. Besides if Bella can accept a filthy blood sucker like you, then Mia can accept me." I thought back.

"If that's what you think. Keep yourself out of trouble Jacob and I promise I will not tell Bella or Mia about this".

They ran off then and I started to panic, I did not trust those leeches. I was starting to think about going to see Mia tomorrow and tell her everything before he did. But how could I face her after what I did? She would never want to see me again. Maybe I should stay away from her.

"You can't tell her Jacob, not if she doesn't already know. You could expose us all. But if she guesses then we can deal with it then" Sam told me.

My life was normal a few hours ago, I was just a normal kid going on a date with a girl. But then destiny got in the way and ruined everything. I started to think about our kiss, how perfect it was. Her lips were so soft, her skin was smooth and I loved the way she was touching me. I couldn't get it out of my mind. How does one go from hating someone to really liking them the next?

"I have the answer to that" Sam said.

"And what is that?" I asked.

"I think you already know..."

Bella POV

It was 4 am and I still couldn't sleep. I was worried about Edward, what was taking him so long? I couldn't rest till I knew he was safe.

I never imagined that something like this would happen tonight, my best friends just had an innocent date and then all hell breaks loose. At least I had one of them safe, but what the hell happened to Jake? Was he safe? Or was he dead? Tears welled up in my eyes thinking about it and I felt like screaming.

Esme and Carlise kept telling me to go to sleep like Mia but I couldn't, not till Edward came back to me. I walked into the living room and looked at Mia on the couch. Her arm was in a sling and she had bandages wrapped around her ribs. She is a tough cookie and usually she can handle anything, better than what I can handle sometimes. But I don't know how she could ever get over this.

Where had that wolf come from? Why did they go on the clearing? I guessed it was because they wanted to spend more time together alone and stargaze like what Mia and I used to do. Those times were much more simpler then, we didn't have a care in the world. Now all I seem to do is worry about everything but that's because I've been in situations I've never dreamed of being in.

Suddenly the door flew open and Edward walked through it. My heart nearly burst out of my chest once again and I ran to him and hugged his granite form as tightly as I could. He hugged me back but not as forcefully, he kissed me softly and then he looked into my eyes.

"Did you find anything?" I asked hoping that he found my best friend.

"Yes, but we need to talk in the other room" He said as he lead me into the kitchen. I was getting worried once again, his tone didn't rest my nerves.

We sat down on the dining table and he sighed heavily. I wondered what he was going to tell me.

"I found Jacob"

"Really? Is he OK? Is he safe?"

"Yes he is fine, he is on his way home"

"Did the wolf hurt him too?" I asked, hoping the answer was no.

"Wolf? How do you know about the wolf?" Edward asked in a confused tone.

"Mia told me she remembers getting attacked by a wolf. Why? Did you see it?"

"Yeah, I saw it alright. But I don't think it will give her anymore harm"

"Thank god they are both safe. I don't know what I would have done if I lost them, I think I would have gone crazy"

I then felt quite relaxed, my friends were safe and Edward was safe. Hopefully there would be no more disasters around the corner...
