Chapter Thirteen - On The Run
I didn't want to stop running but I had been running for hours and as much as I hated to admit it I was cold, tired and hungry. I looked up high into the canopy and wondered where I was, after passing the sign "Welcome To Texas" I stopped paying attention and I wondered where my family were, 'Stop that now Renesmee!' I scolded myself but it was too late, the ache in my heart that I had been ignoring was more pronounced and throbbing, throbbing painfully. If I didn't hunt now then I wasn't gonig to have any energy to carry on running, I took in a deep breath and started the hunt.
Three elk later and I was full, kind of sloshy actually and decided to try and find a place to rest my head for the night. I scaled a large tree next to me and sat on the thickest branch far up the tree and leaned back against the trunk, the jacket I had found earlier was now curled into a ball and was pushed behind my head acting like a pillow. A very uncomfortable pillow. So exhausted my body didn't seam to care as it shut down ready to rest. I slipped quickly into a deep and dreamless sleep, the wildlife melodies acting like a lullaby.
When I awoke it must have been close to midday. I could see a gleam of sun through the crowded canopy which also told me that it was cloudless, absolutely fabulous. That meant I was stuck to staying under the cover and shade of the deep green forest. My sensitive ears picked up water running in the distance, a stream sounded like so I instantly set off again towards the water sounds. I leant over into it and washed my hands and face, the cool water was clean and refreshing. Unfortunatley, washing only kept my hands busy and my thoughts decided to pull up memories that I hadn't thought about in years especially the one during the summer I was five years old.

"Nessie stay away from that water edge, your Mom will have me for dinner if you get that dress wet. Do you know it's some very expensive designer gown?" Jacob pleaded as I danced by the side of the river.
"Silly Jake, Mommy won't eat you because you are my best friend plus you smell bad to her and hello? Jake news flash, Alice dresses me in designer underwear I don't think she would mind this on dress getting slightly wet." I giggled back putting a foot in the stream.
"Ness...don't go any furthur." Jacob warned. I put my next foot in the stream and collected water in my hands.
"Come on out Ness." he pleaded
"I'm not gonig out your coming in!" I laughed throwing the handful of water at him. We both started laughing.

I jumped back from the waters edge like I had been electrocuted. I pressed my back far against a tree and let my body slide so I was crumpled in a heap on the floor. I was forbidden to think about him, he has his love his imprint. The tears rolled freely from my eyes but I made no attempt to dry them, was this how Mom felt when Dad left? My broken heart ached loudly as it thumped an irregular rhythm. My breathing rate increased as I saw his face in my head.
Jacob's Face.
Was love supposed to hurt? I asked myself again but just as before I knew the answer. Yes of course it hurt.
I started to run, shaking my head as I did so as if to shake the image free from my head. I continued to run solidly until I was weak and need to hunt again. What this my life now? Hunt when thirsty, sleep when tired, rest when in pain? Even when I rested I was in pain. As i'd finished with my food I was clearing away the mess when I heard an approach. Another vampire? Sure enough as I turned around i was met by three pairs of crimson eyes.
"Who are you?" the lanky male blonde in front demand looking me up and down.
"I'm Renesmee, it's nice to meet you." I held out my hand in front and he just looked at it, awkwardly I placed it back by my side.
"Your in our territory." the female to his left hissed, all three dropped into defensive crouches.
"I was just passing through, I don't hunt the same way you do." I said holding my hands up defensively. Vampires we'd come across in the past were not as mean as this, what had I got myself into?
"What are you?" the last member asked
"I'm half vampire and half human." I told them simply. "I live on a diet of animal blood"
"Half human?" the female asked confused.
"DISGUSTING HALF BREED!" The leader screeched. I cringed as his voice rages through the air.
"I'm leaving now." I said politely about to move.
"Your not gonig anywhere." The leader smirked before all three let out terrifying growls and lept through the air towards me.....
