Chapter 12 Escaping the Nightmare

Ehno woke up and started his daily chore of getting Naru ready. He went into the make shift kitchen and headed in to the walk-in fridge to get her meat out. As he walked in there was rows and rows of meat and bags of blood. The Volturi like fresh blood but when there was an off season of tourist they drank the blood in the fridge. Aro had made her a very strict diet of raw meats. Ehno put the meat on a trolley and headed back down the hall to the lift to get it to the second floor. He finally made it up to the second floor and down the hall where Naru's door was already open. Ehno rushed to the door and saw that thankfully the metal cage door was closed on the inside. He unlocked it and walked inside to see Aro talking to Naru. Aro turned when he saw Naru looking at Ehno and greeted him.

"Make sure she's ready in an hour I have some people that would like to meet her." Aro said.

"Why the fight isn't for another two hours." Ehno said looking at his master.

"There will be no fight today I'm selling her off. I'm tired of all the complaints from the others plus I grow tired of her." Aro said leaving the room as he did Naru growled.

"Oh dear." Ehno said leaving the food for Naru and ran to go find the Cullen's. Ehno ran around looking for the Cullen's but gave up and returned to Naru's room where he found them.

"I've… been… looking all… over for you… three." He said a bit out of breath.

"We have to leave now. We saw what Aro was thinking and he isn't going to sell her, he's going to kill her!" Alice said worried the clock was ticking and they needed to get out of there.

"Okay let me sedate her first and I'll call you in." Ehno said rushing into the room. Naru was lying down and lazily looked at Ehno and looked away. He went into the other room that held all the medical supplies and got a needle full of an anesthetic. He sat down next to her and started to pet Naru to make her more relaxed. She closed her eyes and with that he slowly pricked her with the needle and injected the fluid into Naru. Ehno sat there for about five minutes in till he called the Cullen's to come in. They slowly walked in being as cautions as could be. Ehno motioned for them to stand next to her while her got the collar.

"What in the world is that?" Bella said looking at the collar emerging from the box.

"This is how Aro controlled her for the first two months. If he was bad he would send a jolt of electricity through her body. Once she got a shock so bad it left burn marks on her skin it almost looked like vampire bites." He said walking over to them and picking her head up.

"You're not putting that on her now are you?" Bella watched in disbelief.

"Do you want to be ripped to shreds when she wakes up?" Ehno looked at her with a look that said you must be out of your mind. She nodded as he locked in around Naru's neck. Soon the lifted her up and ran out of the castle to the car waiting outside. They slipped her in the trunk and made it out alive.

"That was too easy." Alice said looking out the rear window at the fading castle. Edward nodded but was to concentrated on the road and what could be coming up ahead.

It was late the next day when they drove into Forks. They had a hell of a time with US costumes at the air port bringing in Naru. They wanted to see what kind of animal it was and see its paper but Edward got them through safely. They pulled up to the Cullen home and avoided the thought of calling Jacob just yet. They wanted to wake Naru first and get her adjusted to being back. Everyone but Renesmee came out side Edward knew instantly that she was with Jacob which worried him. Naru was a vicious animal she knew the taste of vampire blood and he didn't wanted her going after his beautiful daughter.

Jacob was out with Renesmee hunting with her. His mind was occupied with his thoughts about Naru. He knew they were coming back with her soon, hopefully.

"Jacob…" Ren whined looking at him. He looked over at her.

"Come on!" she said motioning for him to fallow. He did and noticed that there was no prey around. She turned to him and was now only inches away from his face.

"I like you Jake." She said smiling up at him.

"I like you too Nessie." He said looking down at her.

"No I really like you." She got closer and pressed her hands against his chest.

"Nessie… Don't." he said turning away.

"Don't what?" she asked with anger in her voice.

"I have to go let's get you home." He said turning back to her.

"NO… I'll go home myself." She said angrily she then turned and just ran off. Jacob let out a sigh and hung his head low, he was messing everything up.

Jacob walked back to Sam's house where the pack was going to met for a group patrol. Jacob was finally phasing because he knew that he couldn't always hide. He was about ten minutes away from Sam's when he bumped into the.

"What couldn't wait?" he asked

"No not really." Quil said nudging his friends. The sun was setting and the night sky was taking over fast.

"Punks." Jacob said as he phased. The pack ran off towards the northern border.

It was about eleven o'clock when Naru woke up she was scared she wasn't in her room she was in some ones room. She looked around and saw giant windows with tall trees surrounding the place. She got up and walked around the room she wanted to be outside. She knew she wasn't in Italy in the Volturi castle. She couldn't help it she broke through the glass and was running free. She just kept running for half an hour before stopping and letting out a deep long howl to the moon.

Jacob stopped his ear picked something up from the distance.

(Did you guys hear that?) Jake said turning in the direction head heard the noise. The rest of the pack turned to Jacob and said nothing.

(You guys seriously didn't hear that. Trust me fallow me.) Jake said running toward the sound the pack following close behind. As they were running they picked up the scent of a vampire and ran faster. They got a clearing and at the other end saw a mid-night black wolf. The pack looked stunned they were staring down a wolf that was black as night and blood red eyes. Honestly the pack was scared they never seen anything like it before. The wolf growled and snarled it was like something from a horror movie. It started to walk forward then charged the pack had to react and attack. The wolf instantly leaped into the air coming down on Jake biting at his legs. Jacob let out a pain filled howl while the other went to attack the strange wolf. It instantly went for the next wolf and then the next. It was taking down everyone in the pack. The pack member backed off a bit and was again at a stair down with the wolf.

(Jake are you okay?) Sam asked he was ahead of the pack blood was running down Jakes leg.

(Yeah… I'll be fine. Who is this?) Jake said his ribs hurt when the wolf came down on Jake it pressed down on his ribs.

(Let me go at it alone.) Jake said and without a say from Sam Jake was off charging at the wolf. As he charged it jumped over him and turning grabbing his leg swinging him around throwing him into a tree, he was unconscious. The wolf looked back at the pack but heard something and turned its attention to the sound.

Out of the bush Ehno came running with Edward. Ehno had the shock collar's controls and shocked Naru. She instantly fell with a whimper and laid there motionless. Everyone looked at the two men.

"I'm sorry I know I'm on your land but have a good reason. Edward said looking at the wolves.

"Everyone this… This is Naru." Ehno said walking over to her stroking her fur. Everyone phased and walked up to Ehno, Edward, and Naru.

"How…how could that be?" Quil said leaning down next to Naru still in her wolf form.

"Hey were making her kill humans and vampires and Carlisle thinks that all the blood has changed her. We still haven't seen her in a human form so we have no idea what she is like." Edward said mournfully as though the pack and going to forever lose Naru. He looked over and noticed Jacob getting up.

"Naru…" he said painfully holding his chest his leg still bleeding. The pack looked at him their eyes filled with sorrow.

"I knew it was her… I felt her, and the… they way she… moved and attacked. I KNEW IT WAS HER!" Jacob was finally next to his wolf tears in his eyes. The pack moved away a bit he needed space.

"How… How long will she be out?" Jake asked looking at the man and Edward. Edward shrugged and looked down at Ehno.

"It depends. Could be minutes could be two days no longer." Ehno said looking at the box in his hand.

"Who are you?" Sam asked.

"I am Ehno, I was Naru's care taker from the castle we needed to get her out and I tagged along to take care of her. She has tons of wounds that need tended to that haven't healed yet." He said getting a kick from Edward and then a stern look. Ehno looked at Jacob and his eyes dead. Jacob's heart sank his whole body was numb from all the news about Naru.

"Sam do you have any kind of place you can keep her? She through a window and she obviously hurt you." Edward said looking at Jacob bleeding.

"I think so but Ehno we're going to need your help keeping her safe." Sam said looking at the young boy. He nodded and Sam turned to the pack members and motioned them to pick Naru up and they headed off towards Sam's, Ehno tried to keep up with the pack members who's every step they took the young boy had to take two to even try to keep up. Jacob on the other hand went with Edward to see Dr. Carlisle to tend to his wounds.
