Chapter 20: The More Things Change, The More They Stay The Same
(PPoV)
When Sam called and told me Embry had said that Hales had been attacked my heart stopped. I told Rachel that I'd be back and ran out the door. Nothing was as important as She was right now. I couldn't even see straight and if it wasn't for the pack mind and such I probably would've ran into something.
Calm down Paul if she was able to call Embry then she is okay Sam's voice rang through my head. But my heart is heavy and I all can think about is if she's not hurt. We make it to the Cullen's house in record timing. Edward go into the house and say that we were here and I see Haley looking for Embry. She runs to him crying. She looks okay from what I can see.
We need to phase back Paul and find out what exactly happened Sam headed into the forest and I followed. We changed into our clothes and stepped out of the forest and Haley ran to me and buried her head into my chest.
"Don't worry Haley-Bear. You're safe now." I whispered into her ear. Sam puts his hand on her shoulder. Over these past few months she's taken to Sam and Emily as like an older brother and sister. She looks around for Embry. She finds him and pulls him close. Sam looks at the thing that Emmett and Bella are restraining. Sam looks at Haley and says,
" Haley what happened?"
"I had just eaten breakfast and heard a noise but thought it was Mom or Ed and didn't think nothing of it. I had just taken two steps out of the cottage and she attacked me. She had me in a headlock for a while. When I got free enough I yelled for Mom and everyone. They took care of her. This were-woman was my adopted mother before I found you guys," Haley says still shaken up a bit. She buries her head into Embry's chest and I can feel the sadness as it radiates off him and he falls to the ground still clutching her.
"What is she? She smells different." Sam asked looking at Carlisle. He looked at the were-woman and then back at Sam.
"She's a Child of the Moon. A true werewolf. We are unsure if she is alone. If she's Haley's adopted mom then it's fair to say that her father is too. " Sam just shakes his head. I notice Haley looking at the woman . Looking angry, hurt, and disgusted. Jasper notices too as he tells Em to take her up to the house to get her away from all of the madness. Right as he says this Carlisle looks at us all and says,
"We need the Volturi's help. I have no idea how to approach the Children of the Moon." I hear gasps around me. Right as I see Embry and Haley get up she collapses in his arms.
"Haley!" He screams but I don't think that she heard him. Bella and I run towards her.
"Carlise!" I'm not sure which one of us screams it. Emmett and Jasper stay with the woman as Embry rushes her inside and the rest of us rush in behind him. He lays her on the couch and he starts taking vitals and other doctor stuff. I just stand there watching. Embry looks at me with fear in his eyes. I pull him into a hug and smile.
"She's going to be okay kiddo. She's a fighter. And she's got one hell of a temper. Don't you worry. Edward is holding Bella as she dry heaves. It must be awful not to be able to cry. I hear Ness as she falls to the floor and start losing it. Jake runs into the house and picks her up. I turn to look at Carlisle and he's taking a blood sample from her. She looks so peaceful as she lays on the couch. Embry won't leave her side. So much love in this house. So much love for her.
Please wake up Haley Bear. Please. I can't lose you again. I won't lose you again.
