Okay guys, finally, back to the future we go! Here's some more to the part of the story called "The Sun will Rise". (Revised)
Silence was dense on the plain, it hung in the air like the dark clouds that loomed over head. Not a mortal soul would dare break it, not the birds, not the animals even the wind chose to cease, they knew better. Until Jacob focused his attention and realized he heard a humming coming from somewhere near him. It was constant, and reminded him of the sound electricity made when it became accumulated in high amounts, he wondered briefly if he was dead. His whole body felt paralyzed as he lay face down on the floor, so he tried to open his eyes weakly but could see only the ground and the line of trees in the distance.
Remembrance hit him like a brick and with an immense amount of effort he managed to move his arms which were buzzing to the floor on either side of his chest. He attempted to push himself up but he was still too weak, it was like pins and needles times 1000. Instead he opted to move his head up to survey the damage. A dense fog had descended and he panicked. Perhaps he had died? But of course he hadn't, this was still Forks, what had happened? When had he shifted back to human form?
His head caught sight of what was making the humming noise. It was a large blue semi sphere which glowed brightly, it encompassed an unconscious Bella which lay on the ground her torso facing up while her legs and head were facing different directions. Further past her he could still smell the reek of immortal stone like flesh, behind him he could hear the slightly stirring of Edward. Multiple human and wolf feet were rushing towards him,
"Jake!" Leah fell at his side, even in human form she was still faster than the rest.
He arms immediately went to his arms to help him sit up. Two other arms stronger than hers placed themselves firmly on his back and chest.
"C-can't-move." Jacob stuttered.
"I'm not surprised." Sam nodded beside him grabbing something being passed to him after bringing Jacobs legs in front of his body.
Leah's arms were replaced by Embry's as they helped Sam cover their alphas nudity with a pair of shorts.
Jacob's breathing was labored as he looked past the long hair covering his face. Even his organs were having a hard time functioning. Whatever it is that had hit him was strong enough to not only demobilize a werewolf but was most likely responsible for the vampires laying scattered on the floor.
'Wow.' he thought, unbelieving at the power which had rushed out of her small body.
The rest of his pack were situated around him in wolf form still cautious of the very possible danger present but some of them giving him worried glances.
"We thought you were dead meat man." Embry began positioning himself under Jacobs arm to lift him off the ground while Sam did the same on the other side "That blast looked like it could have disintegrated everything inside it." Sam agreed.
Jacob's attention stayed entirely focused on the blue sphere and its inhabitant. Bella was in there, his Bella.
Leah had moved slightly forward to also look closer an unreadable expression on her face.
So far none of the Volturi had stirred.
A voice behind them sounded. "They're not asleep or passed out. It's not possible for our kind." Edward's father and family were gathered together in a similar fashion to us his burly brother and blond sister on either side of him holding him up. The pixie standing eyes wide gazing towards Bella looking like she wanted to jet forward towards her but was being either embraced of restrained by her companion.
"Not passed out," Edward continued for his father smiling evilly "They cannot move, just as we couldn't a minute ago."
Two things happened in that instance, the first was Jacob's feeling of disappointment since he had been the only one to black out from the experience. The second was that both Leah and the short Alice who freed herself from Jasper went racing in a flash down towards the unmoving ensemble of immortal monsters. Leah had at some point transformed into her wolf and once reaching the first line of bodies opened wide her jaws and began yanking at them as if they were dolls making their limbs fly everywhere. Alice looked weird as she pulled at body parts that looked bigger than her entire frame.
Seconds later the rest of his pack caught on and rushed down in a frenzy of fur. Whatever paralysis he had been under it was quickly overcome when Jacob understood what was happening right now. The Volturi which had been closest to Bella were still all lying on the floor unable to do a thing while they who had not been as impacted (in the case of all others save him and Edward) had not been affected. As he felt his body charged back to life he began charging forward ready to phase mid-air he was joined by Edward and his family.
Perhaps some might call this unfair but as Jacob's wolf stood over the leech with the high pitched voice and saw his look of terror his eyes moving while his body lay still, he thought only of Bella, of what unspeakable evils she must have suffered, of what torture and anguish and pain and loneliness that had caused her to became that desensitised person he had seen. His wolf howled in pain and rejoiced all at once as he joined in on the mass murder occurring all around him by biting off the creatures head and dismembering the rest of him. Jacob became high from the images and feelings being transferred to him from the other wolves, they would die tonight, all of them with no damage to his pack or Edwards family. Leah kept replaying in her mind the wide eyed look of the angry, bitter looking vermin with great satisfaction even while chomping on other victims. Paul was keeping a mental count of the leeches he was disfiguring and even went as far as to rip his claws into their bodies enjoying the feel of it. Jacob also saw Edward, who was extremely fast being everywhere with a hungry look, like a junky needing a hit. Alice had built a fire and was laughing hysterically as she threw bits of the Volturi in and every now and then twirled around the flames. Insanity was the thick flavour on everyone's tongue.
All too soon though it was over and the tearing and rendering of flesh had turned into wolves and vampires contributing to the growing fire.
It had happened too quickly for Jacobs liking, they had all been anticipating a battle but if fate chose to hand them the Volturis heads on a silver platter he wasn't going to be the one complaining. The wolves as they began having no more function to perform shook slightly from relief and excitement, for too long had they carried the need for their Alphas revenge in their hearts and they were experiencing a great satisfaction. Leah who had not calmed down was still growling and barking at the burning vampires.
As Edwards brothers threw in the last pile they all stood back and stillness overcame them. Jacob who was pacing backwards and forwards walking between the pyre and Bella's unconscious form stood still for a minute to absorb everything that had happened in such a short amount of time. It was almost too good to be true. His enemies lay burning behind him while the woman who's death he had mourned for 2 years was before him once again, alive, her chest barely rising and falling with her slow heart rate.
Jacob looked towards her and felt himself change back to human as the feelings that his wolf couldn't harbour came flooding out of him when finally anger made way for grief. Jacob body begged to sink to the soil, even for a supernatural being, even for him, it was still too much, too much to contain but he managed to stand erect his fists clenched tightly at his molars ground against each other. He attempted to control the tears that threatened to break through. He had sworn to never again shed another tear when he had finally abandoned all hope that he would ever have her back, after both of his sisters had to flown to find their brother wallowing in depression and despair and they together with the pack had finally managed to pull him up from the hell he had buried himself in. It had not been an easy or simple thing but eventually Jacob even ascended to take up the pack fully. He never truly recovered and only managed to stay in one piece by keeping himself occupied.
Jacob closed his eyes and breathed in deep breaths.
Edward's body was limp as he looked around him, he barely registered the smoke and the smell of burning flesh, his family and the wolves were scattered around, some facing the fire still, a few looking at the blue sphere which encased the woman responsible for all this chaos the rest didn't know where to look.
"Do you think she's ok?" Esme whispered hesitantly although everyone could hear her.
Paul had phased back to human form and was the first to approach the bubble, it was both small and large enough that from his full height he could stretch his arm out and touch it but as soon as he had he retracted it again with a growl, the bubble shocked and repelled him at the same time.
"Looks like a defensive measure." Sam took a step to stand next to Jacob who had calmed and had watched Paul's interaction with the force field.
"No kidding." Leah added leaving them all thinking about the significance of her statement for a while.
"So…like, what do we do?" Seth said after phasing himself and awkwardly pulling on his pants. He was the last as the rest of the wolves had already in their own time, joining the circle being formed around the girl on the ground.
The only one who had been excluded from all this was Edward who had been standing in the same spot his back turned to all of them, obviously still fighting off some of his inner daemons, being utterly lost as to what he should be doing now.
"That's a lot of tattoos." Jared remarked.
"Is it safe to be this close to her?" Seth mumbled
"Yeah, what if she goes off again and we all get nuked." Quill who had spoken received a slap round the back of the neck by Paul.
"Hes right." Jacob stated simply.
His whole pack and even the vampires looked at him oddly.
"We have no idea who she is anymore."
"Jake-" Leah tried to protest but with no conviction in her voice.
Since Edward was obviously not in the mood for discussion Jacob looked to Carlisle and Sam who both seemed to be taking the matter into consideration. Even Alice's mouth was turned down in a grimace.
"Perhaps it would be wise since our biggest worry has been delt with" he glanced back to the fire "to send some of your family home."
"That's just the thing…" Rosalie finally opened her mouth "We don't know what she's capable of. She just performed the unheard of and knocked the entire Volturi on their asses with who knows what power."
"Look guys!" Seth who had bent down to the ground to get a closer look at Bella's arm pointed at something.
They all turned to look closer at what Seth referred to.
"Hey I know that symbol!" Quill said excitedly.
"You would you duffus. It's tattooed on your arm too." Leah spat.
Jacob felt something tug at his heart sharply. Bella had somehow managed to tattoo onto herself their Quileute pack symbol and not only that but she had their names in very fine red writing circling around it and above that there was some more of that strange script going up her body he couldn't recognise. It went above their names and then around another tattoo similar to the previous only it was smaller held a moon in the centre and the names of Edward's family. There were other symbols, characters and pictures which surrounded the tattoo which was why it wasn't obvious at first sight but now he couldn't seem to take his eyes off it.
"What does it mean?" Embry wondered.
Edward had joined the circle at last and was also looking at Bella's arm intently. Jacob growled inwardly that a leech's name was also on her.
"I hope she hasn't hurt herself." Esme's voice shook as she held on to Carlisle.
Carlisle met Jacob's gaze once more.
"She obviously can't be moved. And if she has erected this barrier to protect herself perhaps it's for the best. She might be in some kind of shock."
"Are any of us gonna talk about Bella being some sort of witch and the stuff the leech was saying?" Leah looked around angrily and crossed her arms.
Eyes met across the circle and then back down to the sleeping beauty.
Please review guys! xx
