I watched as if in slow motion as she jumped towards me, from the corner of my eye I could see a wolf running towards her. I was surprised that they had gotten here so quickly. In my state of half fury and half scared I watched as the wolf attacked the vampire.
"Mackie get inside. Now." I heard someone growl. I obeyed with out another thought. I ran into the house, making sure to close the door. I knew that I needed to get all the humans out of the house but I also knew I had to do it carefully. Our secret could not get out.
"Mackie, what happened?" Paige asked me.
"Nothing, come on everyone needs to leave." I said. I could here the sounds of tearing outside making me cringe lightly. There were also the few sounds of whimpering, which I knew come from a wolf.
"Ok." She said before we went back into the living room were Allison had turned on the music. To humans it would block out all sound coming in from outside to me it didn't.
"Sorry guys but it looks like we need to head out. My mom called and said it was time to come home." Paige lied.
"Yeah, we need to be getting back home as well." Logan said.
We all said our goodbyes before they headed to the door. I walked them to the car keeping an eye on the surrounding woods. I heaved a sigh of relief when I could no longer hear the car. I was walking back to the house when I saw him. A vampire in his early twenties with short cropped brown hair, his eyes a dark red, showing that he hadn't eaten in a while. It was hard to tell if he was a newborn or not. Like the woman he didn't seem inclined to try and attack me, yet.
"You are an interesting creature." He said stepping closer to me. I glanced at the house before looking back at him. "Your family is quite busy."
"What's so interesting about me?" I asked.
"You are a vampire but not completely, you are something else as well." He said cocking his head to the side. "You have human in you as well, I can smell your blood, hear your heartbeat."
"Yes, I am Vampire and I am Human, and I am also something else. That part is what is making your nerves sense danger, why the closer you get to me the more you want to attack." I said taking a step toward him.
"You're not scared of me are you." He said it as a statement not a question.
"No, I may not be a full blood vampire but I most likely can take you." I said which caused him to laugh. I could tell by his control he had been a vampire for a while. "Are you the leader of the newborn vampires?" I asked.
"You are smart. Yes I created the newborns." He said taking a step closer to me. We were now 10 feet 2 inches apart.
"Why?" I asked.
"Why else but to destroy." He said with a laugh.
"Destroy my family?"
"Yes, everyone knows the Cullen's, they are the biggest coven after the Volturi, and they have also joined up with our natural enemy. The Werewolves. That's the other part you are, you have werewolf in you. Right?"
"Yes, I do. But while you think of them as enemy I think of them as family." I growled taking a step forward. "Why do you want us killed?"
"Power," He said. "Whoever kills the Cullen family gets power." He said. "Plus this area will finally be up for grabs."
"Power, who says that they will get power?" I asked though I already knew the answer, who else? The only people who could give them power was the Volturi, though they were known for stealing power as well.
"I don't have to tell you, do I?" he asked again taking a step closer.
I could hear the fighting get louder on the other side of the house, I could also see the smoke rising, showing that a few Vampires have been burned.
"Your family is extremely busy, as you can hear." He said a grin on his face.
"I don't need them." I said. I was glad my voice was staying calm, my nerves were starting to get the best of me and I could feel panic coursing though me.
"We'll see about that." He drawled. Thanks to Uncle Jasper and Uncle Emmet's love for fighting each other I knew what it looked like when someone was about to attack. As soon as his feet had left the ground I slipped out of his way. I laughed when I saw his face of shock, though he quickly composed himself. I grinned at him.
We circled each other, I knew when it came to fighting he would have the advantage. He was a full vampire with fighting experience; I only knew what to do from watching and maybe the occasional fight with EJ.
He jumped at me too quickly for me to move completely out of his way. He caught a hold of my arm; I brought my other arm up and attempted to pull his arm off my wrist. His hold tightened and I felt my wrist snap.
"Ahhh." I screamed. I kicked him hard making him lose his hold on me and following back a few feet. Gasping I put a few more feet in between us, I let my broken wrist hang at my side. Hopefully it wouldn't take too long to heal.
Mackie, what's going on? Where are you? EJ asked. I ignored him; the vamp had gotten back up and was getting closer.
Go for the throat. I told myself, that's what Uncle Jasper always told us, go for the throat. I watched him for a minute before going for this throat. He was surprised that I jumped him, this worked to my advantage, I was about to sink my teeth in his neck but he was faster and stronger and sent me flying. I landed on my back, but quickly jumped up, knowing staying down would be my death.
He was standing twenty feet away a smirk on his face. He knew he was a better fighter then me, but he didn't see that Kaden and EJ were both stalking him from behind. EJ must have realized that something was wrong when I hadn't answered him after my wrist was broken. I smiled at him, which caused him to falter then walked to where there was only 8 feet separating us. Kaden growled before jumping on him, I could hear the sounds of ripping and hissing. Kaden ripped off one of his arms making it easier to attack; he couldn't get as good of hold on them with just one arm. EJ sunk his teeth into his other arm while Kaden used the distraction to finish him off. I lit a fire and started putting the pieces that had been torn off in to it. I watched the pieces burning, the area filling the sweet smell of vampire.
I don't know how long I stood there for, just staring at the fire. I could feel the pain in my wrist but I ignored it. Tears fell down my face and my body was stiff. I relaxed when Kaden wrapped his arms around me, pulling me against his chest. I wasn't sure how long we stood there before I heard my mom.
"Mackenzie Sarah Black, what in the hell were you thinking." I heard my mother yell from behind me. I cringed at the use of my entire name. I should have remembered that this wouldn't go well with anyone. I slipped out of Kaden's embrace and turned to face everyone.
"Clearly she wasn't." I could tell that grandma had joined in with the scalding. Dad was standing next to Mom; I could tell he was too angry to speak.
"It's not like I did it on purpose. I was out here saying goodbye to Paige and her friends, cause you know humans shouldn't be around newborns, when he came out of the woods. I started talking to him; turns out he was the one who made all the newborns. We talked about how he was trying to get power by killing the Cullen family and I didn't really like that, he then informed me that he knew what I was and that he couldn't understand why, well he didn't say it like that but I could tell..."
"Mackie, are you alright?" My mom asked interrupting my babbling. I only babbled when I was overflowed with emotions.
"My wrist is broken." I said as more tears flowed down my face. My mom came over to me and pulled me into a hug.
"Shh, baby, it's alright. The battle is over. Everyone is alright. A few scratches here, a few broken bones, but nothing that won't heal quickly." She murmured softly running a hand down my hair.
"Sorry Daddy." I whispered hoping to ease some of his anger.
"Mackie, I'm not angry, when I heard that you didn't respond to your brother it scared me. I was afraid that something bad would happen to you." He said his expression getting softer. He came over to me and pulled me into a hug, kissing my forehead gently.
I could hear muffled voices arguing about something, I instantly recognized the voices as Kaden and EJ. I pulled away from my father to look for them. I found them a few feet from the woods entrance, and walked over to them to see what was going on. I really just wanted to find a bed and maybe have grandpa Carlisle take a look at my wrist.
"What's going on?" I asked looking between the two boys.
"Nothing." EJ snapped. "You should go inside; you look like you could collapse at any minute." EJ said.
"No. Tell me what you two are arguing about?" I asked glaring at both of them.
"Mac, why did you go fight the Vampire?" Kaden asked me.
"I didn't go and fight it, he came to me." I said staring him in the eyes.
"Why didn't you tell EJ?" He asked. "Someone could have come earlier. You wouldn't have gotten hurt." He said.
"Everyone was busy, if I would have asked EJ then everyone would have gotten distracted and someone could have been seriously hurt." I said my voice hard.
"If EJ hadn't felt you get hurt and asked what was wrong then no one would have realized that you were fighting a Vampire, you could have gotten killed." He said his voice cracking at the last word. That made me realize why he was acting like this, I was his imprint, his whole world and something could have happened to me, something did happen to me.
"EJ will you leave the two of us alone please." I asked my brother giving him a quick smile. I waited until EJ was close to the house before speaking.
"Kaden, I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking clearly, all I knew was that he was a threat to my family and I had to do something. I should have called for help but I wasn't thinking straight." I said to him softly placing my uninjured hand on his arm. I could feel him relax instantly under my hand.
"I know, you shouldn't have to explain, but I can't help but worry. You are my world and I wouldn't be able to live without you." He said then pulled me into his arms and kissed me deeply, I could tell he was showing how much he loved me though the kiss for I was doing the same thing.
