See? I told you I'd update by tomorrow.

I'd like to dedicate this chapter to my awesome sister. Without her, I'd still be sitting around with writer's block, not finishing the story and disappointing you all. Love you Kelli, 'preciate it!

Disclaimer: sigh…. Must we go through this again?

Chapter: (would somebody please tell me what chapter I'm on??)

BPOV

Chad had this really weird look in his eye.

I wonder what he's planning….

All my thoughts were interrupted when I saw the entire length of the trampoline. It took up all the space in the backyard from back door to the house, to the edge of the forest, and it was filled with patch marks.

Chad had probably bought, like, a million trampolines's and stitched them all together to make this ginormous one.

"Now that you've seen the trampoline, Bella, it's time that we got started. First, you must-"

"Ahem!" Charlie interrupted.

"What is it baby brother?" Chad cooed. Ugh. How creepy.

Charlie scowled, "I told you never to call me that. Especially in FRONT of my daughter."

"Well then what is it?" Chad said impatiently.

"Didn't you bring a specific someone to 'help' Bella in her training?"

Chad thought for a moment, and then frowned.

"No, I don't believe I have." He turned to face me again, "Now, like I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted….. First you must-"

Charlie sighed loudly.

"Oh for the love of God, just say what you have to already and leave Bella and me the fuck alone!" Chad exploded. But Charlie stood his ground and patiently waited for him to calm down.

When Chad's breathing returned to normal, Charlie spoke.

"Billy's kid." Was all he said.

Immediately, Chad's face snapped from confusion and irritation, to acknowledgement, and understanding.

He slapped his forehead, "Now I remember! God! How could I be so stupid?"

Charlie and I shared a look, and then we both tried to contain our laughter.

We failed.

Chad turned to us looking suspicious, but I covered my mouth with my hand and urged him to continue.

"Whatever. Bella I'd like you to meet someone that you haven't seen in years. Jacob Black."

At that moment, a russet skinned boy walked out from behind the house, and grinned at me.

"It's been a while Bells."

Meanwhile……

JPOV

"Wait. WHAT? Bella's going to DIE?!" Before Alice could respond, I was already out the door heading to Bella's.

I didn't get very far before I was tackled by Edward, and grabbed by Emmett.

"Let me go! I have to check on Bella! I have to know if she's okay!" I screamed, trying to break free of their grasps. But it was no use.

"I apologize Jasper," Edward said.

"Yeah, it was pixie's orders."

At the house, Alice was waiting for us with her arms crossed and a scowl on her face.

I felt a little lust coming for Edward at the sight of Alice frowning.

I growled menacingly, "Edward, this is NOT the time."

He just smirked, and shrugged his shoulders.

"Why the fuck did you run off before I could finish?" Alice yelled.

I was stunned. Is she serious?

"Oh. I'm sorry, next time you tell me that the girl I love's life is on the line, I'll be sure to hear the entire story before I calmly stroll through the forest to check on her. On the way, I could probably stop for McDonald's or-"

Edward and Emmett were fighting very hard to contain their laughter causing me to burst out laughing uncontrollably.

Alice only glared.

"Like I was saying! I think that Bella MIGHT die. I looked into her future and everything just went black."

There was a pause.

"How is that possible? Your visions don't just 'turn black'" Emmett commented.

"I know! If Bella were dying I'm sure that I'd see it! That's why I don't really know for sure what's happening to her."

I just stared at her for a moment.

"Okay Jasper you can go now. BUT! Keep yourself hidden. I think you'll know what will happen if you are seen by that Uncle of hers." Alice said, sounding exasperated.

I knew exactly what would happen if I got too close, and it involved a fire knife through my skull.

Bella's uncle had been very clear about that one.

I took a deep unnecessary breath, "That's not gonna stop me from going you know."

Alice stared back at me for a minute, and then smiled.

"I figured as much. Now what exactly are you still doing here Jasper?"

She didn't have to tell me twice; before they knew it (apart from Alice of course) I was out the door and on the freeway to Bella's house.

There was absolutely, no way that I'd let my Bella be in any kind of danger. Whether there's a possibility of it happening or not. I swear on my non-life, that I will always be there.

Always.

Yesterday. . . .

ChadPOV

I was sitting on the couch in the living room, watching football with my baby bro, when an exhausted looking Bella came through the door.

"Hey Bells, how was your day?" Charlie greeted.

He was rewarded with a blank expression and no answer. That blank expression creeped both me AND Charlie out and it looked like he lost the courage to begin any kind of small talk with his daughter. Whatta shame.

"Well, alright then…. Goodnight…Bella." He turned to me with a look that said, 'What did I do?'

I knew in the back of my mind that this wasn't really the time to bring this up but-

"Don't you think that Bella's been shirking her training duties?" I asked.

Charlie looked at me incredulously.

"I know, I know, not the time, but I really think that she's been putting it off for a while…"

"I think that it's more along the lines of you being too lazy and half-assed to come up with something evil and outrageous to put off as training for Bella." Charlie replied wearily.

"And I really think that Bella should get some kind of partner to help her train or something," I went on, ignoring him to the fullest.

"Well what about Billy's kid?"

"I need someone strong, someone brave,"

"You know, Jacob. BILLY'S kid."

"Someone who'll get along real well with Bella,"

"CHAD!!"

I turned to face him. "Yes, my adorable baby brother?"

"Don't call me that." He threatened. As if he could do anything anyway. Psh.

Charlie took a deep breath and let it out slowly. "I'm gonna say this slowly, so that even you can understand. If you want help, then go, ask Jacob, who is, Billy's son."

I winced. "But Charlie! You know that I don't like Billy. Much less his son!" I wailed.

"Why?" Charlie asked curiously.

"B-Because, h-he stole my lunch box in preschool." I whispered.

Charlie just stared at me. I felt really uncomfortable in his gaze and I tried not to look at him but I could feel his eyes burning a hole in the side of my head.

So finally I gave up.

"Okay fine, we'll ask Jacob. But don't get your hopes up Char. I'm sure that he'll refuse!" I stated vehemently.

Charlie just smiled to himself. He knew that I was bluffing, and for once in our entire lives, Charlie had won an argument against me.

In the present. . . .

BPOV

Chad tried to fake a polite smile at Jacob and failed miserably.

I studied Jacob for a second, wondering as to where I've seen him before.

Jacob grinned at me, "We used to play in the sandbox, and we had wrestling matches. You always won."

Now I remember. I liked Jacob!

I awkwardly bounced over to him to give him a hug. I think that I was more than happy to see him again and we hugged a bit longer than necessary.

Chad cleared his throat very loudly and I let go of Jacob. He laughed. "It's nice to see you too Bells."

"I'd hate to break up this very happy reunion and all, but I think I should tell you more about Jake over here." Chad put in.

I was puzzled, "What more is there to know about Jacob?"

Chad opened his mouth to speak, but Charlie him to it.

"He sort of… changed…over the years." Charlie began.

"He's a Werewolf." Chad replied. Plain and simple.

Everyone was looking at me expectantly. Charlie was concerned, Chad was smug, and Jacob looked…well he looked curious to see my reaction.

Only one word escaped my lips and that was, "COOL!"

On reflex I slapped my hand to my mouth, trying to protect myself from sounding like a total idiot but it was too late.

Charlie and Jacob were rolling on the trampoline laughing their asses off while Chad appeared to be disappointed, and thoroughly pissed.

"Back to the matter at HAND please."

He waited a bit for them to calm down and when the finally did, he went into the explanations for today's training.

"I have been feeling that you need a partner to help you train Bella and apparently Jacob is the best choice." Chad emphasized the 'apparently' and glared at Charlie.

Charlie looked at him and did his best impression of an 'innocent Chad' face.

I snickered, and even Chad had to crack a smile. But then it was gone and replaced with a stern look.

"Today, you will be dealing with a little hand to hand combat, and these trampolines that you see here will be used for the challenge. As you see, it is pretty difficult to walk on these things. You have to jump, and you will be fighting in the air."

He can't be serious. I can't fight without my knives! I'm so clumsy I can barely walk without tripping all over myself! And what is this anyway? No one fights in the air unless they are apart of a cheesy Ninja/samurai film.

I frantically looked around for someone, ANYONE who could help me get out of this but there was absolutely nobody.

"Jacob here,' continued Chad, "Is very skilled in hand to hand combat being apart of the pack. But that discussion is for another day."

Chad was now rolling his eyes, "Okay Bella, now that you know what to do, listen to Jacob and I'm sure that you'll be fine. Okay? Okay. Now. BEGIN!"

I was knocked off my feet when a punch came flying my way. I tried to regain control of my body but ended up bouncing high in the air, and landing at the edge of the trampoline. I can still hear the big 'clang' that's ringing through my ears.

I quickly got up and caught Jacob's leg when it was swirling towards my head and threw him down on so that when he bounced up again, his face crashed into my foot. Earning a large groan from him.

I froze, where is all of this coming from I wondered, staring at my fingers as if they held the key to the future.

Jacob kicked my legs out from under me and then grabbed them out of the air, then, he threw me into the middle of the trampoline, but this time I was ready for him, as I bounced high I twisted my body as he was coming to attack me, and my foot caught his torso, knocking him back to earth.

As I started falling I decided to land right on him strengthening the blow, but he rolled out of the way and I ended up doing a face-plant into the fabric.

All at once, Jake had me pinned and I was immobile.

I looked up at him and he smirked.

"I win." He growled. I shivered, but not because of the cold.

Next thing I know Jacob was violently knocked off me and there was a strange blur of movement.

Everyone seemed to get involved at that point and I saw Chad pulling out his knives. He aimed them at the blur.

The blur who was none other, than Jasper Cullen.

Ahh I love writing Bella's fight scenes.

As you all know, I've been on vacation, so that's why I haven't updated. I sorry….

So as an apology, this chapter is longer than the others and I put Chad's POV in it.

And for those of you who still hate me there a fresh box of doughnuts waiting for you….. *puppy dog eyes*

I will see you next time, Roxy (0u0)b
