Chapter 20
Jake's point of view

This is torture! Sam ordered us to all wait until the leech attacks Serena before we attack. But here's the thing, we're huge werewolves and Serena's house isn't built for us to go inside. So Sam called the Cullen's over here to help us. Blondie and mind reader stayed in Forks to keep Bella safe though. Sam wants to interrogate the leech too because he thinks the leech came from Seattle, where the newborn army is. So the Cullen's are going to rush in grab the leech and bring him out here. Then Embry and I are going to rush in and get Serena.


We all listened closely to Serena and the leech's conversation. When he explains his plan Serena begs him not to hurt us.

"It's a shame I couldn't keep you alive, you'd make a great mate," the leech says and I growl. I hear Serena run but then the leech cuts her off.

"Sorry sweetheart," the leech says and I hear a loud thud. Then I hear crunching and the most heartbreaking scream.

"NOW!" Sam yells and nods to the Cullen's. They run inside and a minute later bring the leech out. Embry and I phase back and run into the house. I look around frantically and find Serena passed out on the floor. I run to her and kneel down to her level.

"Serena, can you hear me?" I ask. No response.

"Jake," Embry says and I look to him. He points to her leg and I see that it's bleeding a lot.

"Should I get the leech doctor?" Embry asks and I growl. No more leeches are coming near my imprint.

"He won't hurt her, he's going to get her better, don't you want that?" Embry asks. Dang it he has a point.

"Go get him," I say and he runs out of the house. I look back to Serena and check her heartbeat. It's still there but very faint.

"Stay with me Serena, please," I beg. Embry and the leech doctor come in and over to me. The leech checks over my imprint while I hold back a growl.

"Her leg's broken and she's loosing a lot of blood," he says.

"I need to take her to the hospital," he says and I nod.

"What about the leech, don't you ned to talk with him?" Embry asks.

"My family and the pack can hold him down for now while I fix Serena up," he says. I lift Serena up and head outside.

"There's no car to take Jake," Embry says and I curse under my breath. I hear a honk and I see Paul with his truck. We hurry over to him while the leech starts running to Forks to get a room ready for Serena. We hop into the truck and Paul speeds down the road to Forks.


Serena's point of view

There are noises all around me but I can't make out what they are saying or who/what they are. What I can hear is a very loud and annoying beeping sound that makes me want to rip my ears off! Soon the noises, except the beeping, stops and it gets real quiet. I can't see anything but darkness and it makes me a little scared. Am I dead? Did Daniel change me into a vampire or kill me for good? If I am dead then why is there a beeping noise that sounds like a heart monitor. Wait is it a heart monitor? Am I in a hospital? Please lord let me be alive! I can't be dead, I just can't leave! What about Jake, mom, Sam, Emily, Rain, everyone? I can't leave them. Did Daniel get to them and kill them? Oh gosh I hope not! If Jake was dead I would know right? I mean I would feel it in my heart that he was gone for good. But I don't feel anything but exhaustion. I feel something warm and comforting hold my hand. I feel something touch my head but can't make out what or who it is. Gosh I wish I could open my eyes! I try to but don't succeed. Grr this sucks! I hear some mumbling and the thing holding my hand squeezes my hand a little. I feel my heart start to beat faster and a small smile creep onto my lips. What do my lips know that I don't? Who or what is making that noise and holding my hand?


Jake's point of view

When we arrived at the hospital in Forks we rushed Serena into the emergency area and the leech doctor hurried us to an open room. He then started working on Serena. I watched every move he made with my fists clenched at my sides. He's helping Serena not hurting her. I keep repeating that in my head over and over so I don't rip apart the leech this minute. When he's done Serena's leg is in a cast and she looks good but still unconscious.

"She's fine but might be out for awhile," the leech doctor says and I nod my head.

"I'm going to head back to La Push to help with the vampire," he says and I nod again.

"Feel free to stay in here with her and I should be back in a few hours," he says and leaves. I look over my imprint and sigh. She's going to be okay. But what would have happened if Quil didn't pick up the leech scent? Serena would be dead! All because I'm such a bad soul mate. Gosh how could Serena like me?!

"Is she okay?" Embry asks as he and Paul walk in.

"She's fine but still out," I say and they give me a small smile.

"Are you okay?" Embry asks.

"No, Serena could've died today," I say and they frown.

"She could've but didn't," Embry says.

"If I hadn't have been such a jerk to her none of this would've happened!" I yell.

"Jake keep it down there are other people here," Embry says.

"I don't care, I almost let my imprint die!" I yell and start to shake. Paul drags me out of the room and out of the hospital into the forest near by. I phase and so does Paul.

"Look man I know you're beating yourself up over this," Paul says.

"It's my fault," I say.

"Yes it is," he says.

"What, you're agreeing with me?" I ask confused.

"I agree that you were a bad soul mate to Serena." he says.

"She went through hell Jake," he says and I drop my head ashamed.

"I know," I say.

"You broke her heart so many times but didn't even realize it," he continues.

"She has been through a lot and you need to decide if you're going to be next to her or not," he says.

"I want to, if she'll have me," I say.

"She does but she's worried you're going to leave her like her father left them," he says.

"I would never hurt her like that," I say.

"Well you sorta have," he says and I frown.

"You left her for Bella, you said she came in second place to Bella, you cared more for Bella than her," he says.

"You never realized that the most amazing girl was standing right in front of you for so long," he says.

"I do now Paul, I really do," I say.

"Do you?" he asks.

"She's like a sister to me and you've hurt her so many times that you would be dead by now if not for the imprint," he says.

"I really do Paul," I say.

"Prove it," he says and phases back. I will prove it, not just to Paul but to Serena, my imprint and soul mate.
