I know this chapter is shorter than what mine usually are, but I needed to stop somewhere. I know I took a long time, but the only time I was able to get to a computer over the weekend was when I quickly checked my email while at my mom's. My brother got a Wii so I was playing a lot of that and forgot to get on and write.

Dedication: I plead insanity—I know she has gotten them before, but she always talks to me about what I am thinking of doing with my story, and I give her my idea's and she tells me it they are any good or now. She Rocks!!

Big thank you to my editor as well or you would be reading things like "Carlisle's sweat voice" and "I could not thin of a reason" THANK YOU!!!

--------------------

Jacob floored the Volvo. We were at Bella's house in record time. I got straight out of the car and headed to the house. Jacob caught me.

"No Steph! No matter who it is in there, you are not going in. I don't want you getting hurt!"

"But Jacob, Bella" I begged.

"I'll handle Bella, I'll bring her out here as soon as I can get to her, but you are not going inside that house." That was a definite order.

There was a high picked squeal, and I heard a loud crash. The entire house seemed to shake at the noise. That was the end of it. Jacob and Julius ran inside to fight off whoever it was. I was left outside wondering if my friends were the ones giving off the screams screeches and howls. What? Of course they were my friends. No matter who they were, they were giving off those noises, and they were all my friends. How could I sit here and do nothing? What could I do? There was nothing for someone weak and fragile like me could do in a situation like that.

The house shook again, taking me out of my horrifying thoughts. I saw a large brown wolf in front of me. The wolf panted from the battle and it's paws were bleeding, and it's side was sliced over. It took a slow step toward me. I looked the wolf straight in the eye. There was no mistaking the glazed look. How could I be related to the causers of this?

"Embry!" Jacob shouted from the second story window.

The wolf's eyes were clear for a moment. Jacob's voice was clearing them.

"Jacob, keep talking to him, it's working!" I shouted. We didn't have much time though. The wolf was coming closer and closer to me and I had no way of stopping it, "Jacob!" I warned.

The wolf backed me into the Volvo and I cringed knowing I could not go any farther. I looked up at Jacob who was standing on the window sill. He jumped and in mid air morphed into the dirt red haired wolf. He landed on Embry with a deafening pound. The growls continued as the wolves went for each other.

"Think to him Jacob!" I yelled, doing the only thing I could think of, "Think of the pack, give him memories to counter his hatred!" If he was told that we had all betrayed him, which seemed to be one of Leader's favorites, then memories of the pack would bring him back. I was still against the Volvo. Jacob and Embry were rolling this way. I curled up as small as I could. Maybe if I was small enough they would miss me. I was wrong. The last thing I remember was having a mouth full of hair and a loud snap, followed by a lot of pain.

-----------------------------------------------

I opened my eyes to Jacob's beautiful face. There was no mistaking the pain there. I tried to get up, but two cold hands—along with Jacobs—held me back.

"You wouldn't be able to walk anyway. Your legs are broken in three places, and you're covered in scratches." Carlisle's sweet voice came from behind my head.

"Jake?" I looked around the room, it was only the three of us, "Where?"

"There out talking to Bella. She is being filled in on what we already know." Jake attempted a smile, "She has issues with blood, and you're covered in it." That took me by surprise.

"Julius?" I breathed. I did not intended for it to be a question but it came out that way.

"He was fine. Julius was the one that carried you bleeding all the way back here. I was taking care of Embry." Jacob's eyes were clear as day, but for the tears forming. He was fighting them back, but I could not think of why.

"You can cry in front of me Jake." I sat myself up. "Talk." I ordered.

Carlisle easily found his presents was not wanted and so he excused himself, "I'll be in the next room if you need me."

"I," That was when I really looked at where I was. It was not the Cullen's like I had thought, but somewhere far smaller and a lot less fancy, but more like home, "When did we come back?"

"When I was phased I talked to Sam. Told him everything I knew and everything we were doing with the Cullens. He offered to help, and he asked that you come back here." I looked toward the door the doctor exited. Jake caught where my thoughts were, "This isn't the first time Sam has allowed them to pass you know. Right now there is no treaty. Every part of it is gone for now. Temporarily destroyed, until we catch these monsters. I tried to move a little more to see which room of the Black's I was in. Looking up at the ceiling all I saw was the wood. Jacob helped me up. Jake's room.

"Tell me Jake," I said, "What did I miss?" I asked.

"After or before I knocked you out?" He asked the comment with forced lightness on it.

"Everything. What happened in that house? I really don't think it should have taken that long to take out just Embry when you, Julius, Edward, Alice, and the rest of them were all there."

"It wasn't just Embry." I looked confused, "It was at first, but we barely had Embry pinned when they showed up." Jacob looked off at the wall thinking of the memory I guessed, "They were every where. Four of them. They tried there hardest to take one of us..." Jacob's eyes widened, "They got Edward at one point, convincing him in thought so we never knew. They used his power against him. The worst thing was he had Bella in his arms when they got him." I unintentionally gasped, "He cut her, but something about the smell of Bella's blood actually took away Leader's influence. We out numbered them, but in the midst of the confusion Embry got away from us. That is when he went after you. When I phased I did just what you told me. I thought of all the things I trusted about Embry, all the good things. It worked, but by the time that came around you had already been hit. I had to talk to Sam so Julius offered to bring you back. I told Edward to take everyone to the reservation, and that you were to only be looked at by Dr. Cullen. No other doctor was to examine you because I would have no explanation for any other doctor as to why you were covered in claw marks and had a leg that looked like an elephant stepped on you." Jake looked down at my face again.

"Are you all right?" I asked.

"I am fine now. I had a few scratches, but they healed long ago."

"How long ago was long ago?" I asked.

Jacob raised an eyebrow, "You want to know?" I nodded, "You were out for two days. Partly because of how badly you have thrown off your sleeping schedule."

I didn't want to think of what had happened the last two days while I laid there asleep, "Did you get them?" I asked.

"No," Jacob's face fell, "they got away, but we will get them next time."

"Do we know who they brought with them?" I asked.

"No they were just two of their army generals."

I could think of a hundred things I wanted to ask him, but right now, I decided, was not the time. I reached for my Jacob and he got where I was going. He climbed into the bed with me and rapped two arms around me tenderly.

My arms were not tender. I was scared out of my mind. My arms pulled me to his neck and I grasped him tightly not wanting to ever let him go. There was too much pain in the world right now. I pulled back my head so that I could look him in the eye. Moving that way made my numb leg suddenly cry out in pain. I bit my lip as I looked down and finally saw the cast. I looked back to Jacob who moved himself so that I could see his face and I didn't have to move.

He was on top of me, all of his heat seemed to center on me, "I love you Jacob." I said. My arm wrapped his neck and pulled him to me and I kissed him deeply. This world was coming down on me too fast. But when I was in Jacob's arms, they seemed to all go away. What do you call someone like that? A man who, no matter how much sorrow there is in your world, being in his arms makes you forget it all. Is there a name for that? He was like some fallen angel here to keep me safe. My guardian angel, that was what I would have to live with for now.

My stomach let out a low moan. Jacob laughed against my lips, "What do you want to eat?" he asked.

"I don't know. What do we have." I kissed him again playfully before letting myself fall back to the bed.

"Frozen pizza is all I can think of." He said, "You haven't gotten us groceries in a while so Billy's been getting take out."

"Pizza sounds good," I said.

Jacob kissed my forehead, "I'll get it ready."

Geez, my chapters seems to have so much packed into them. First the fight at the Swan's, then the waking up at the Black's. I can't seem to slow this story down.
