Embry's arms tightened around me when I shivered. It had turned dark and lights from outside shone thru the vents that were close to the ceiling. I couldn't stop shaking. Most of it was fear but the other part was from being cold. I was wearing my light blue pajama shorts that were such a thing material it didn't do anything to keep me warm. My t-shirt was a little thicker but it still didn't help.

" Embry?" I whispered. His head was back against the wall. When I spoke he looked down at me gripped my hand.

" I want to go home." I said feeling those retched tears forming again.

" Come here." He said. I got on my hands and knees and crawled onto his lap. He grabbed my feet and tried to warm them up. They tingled and a few minutes later I could feel them again. I said and laid my head on his shoulder. I grabbed one of his hands and he held mine with a firm grip. I looked at him and saw he was looking over my head. I followed his gaze and my stomach clenched when I saw my dad standing there.

" I didn't mean to interrupt this… sweet moment. I just came to tell you there has been a change in plans. It seems that… Edward's family has destroyed Victoria's army. I had orders from Victoria that if that were to happen, I'm supposed to at least kill you." He said with that sick smile. Embry gripped my hand harder and I heard a low growl. I looked at him. I'd never before seen that kind of look of hate on his face. I'd seen the disgusted expression he had at the movie store when Nicky and Michelle had been trying to get him to go home with them. But this face… had me scared. It looked like he was ready to get up and rip dad to shreds. He probably was getting ready to do that when the three vampires came up behind my father. Dad turned around and looked them for seconds suddenly, they were in front of us. Dad grabbed me and ripped away from Embry's arms and I screamed. Embry made to get up when the three vampires grabbed him and held him down. He thrashed but they were too strong. Dad threw me against the floor and stars burst before my eyes as my head hit a crate. He disappeared and reappeared a few seconds later with rope and duct tape. He dropped the tape beside me and unraveled the rope.

" I've been missing you lately Clair. I miss the fun we use to have." He said throwing the rope it the air. I looked up at saw hook in the ceiling he had managed to loop the rope over. The other end fell to the ground next to him and he bent to pick up to duct tap. He sat up straighter and wrapped tape around my ankles, holding them together. I struggled when he grabbed my hands to do the same. He ignored me and went on. When he had them tapped together, he stood up and pulled me with him. Then he grabbed one end of the rope and loop it thru the tape on my hands. He tied it in a tight knot and grabbed the other. He gave a heavy tug and, with a gasp of surprise, I was suspended two inches off the ground. My arms felt like they were going to be ripped out of their sockets.

" Sorry. Didn't mean to get you that high." He said and lowered me so I was on my feet. My arms were still held tight above my head though and the tape was cutting off my circulation. Dad reached over and pinched my stomach and I cried out in pain. He laughed.

" Remember when I did that to you when you were three. It was so funny." He said and did it again. I was going to have bruises there. He stopped when I began screaming.

" Okay I've had my fun." He said then pulled a pocket knife from his pocket.

" I'd bite you but then you'd be changed. I'd rather get rid of you then have a whiny teenager frozen in time bothering me all the time." He said running the knife over my bare arm.

" No!" Embry yelled struggling against the three vampires.

" T-touch me and Sam will kill you." I said in, what I'd hoped would be a threatening voice, a shaky voice.

" I'm already dead Clair." He said with a chuckle. Then he dug the knife into my shoulder. I screamed as pain flooded my entire body. It was strange. Everything happened at once. Pain flooded my body, Embry yelled, and the entire back wall of the building was torn away. There was a shocked silence. The only sound was me gasping in pain and the steady drip of my blood as it ran down my chest and soaked my shorts. The air was filled with dust and everyone waited for the dust to settle. What I saw behind the dust sent a shock of relief thru my entire body and I went limp. A huge black wolf appeared with two others behind him. Along with them were, Jasper, Alice and Carlisle. My dad growled and dropped the blood stained knife and he was gone. Sam leaped over the crates and I heard growling and screams. Everything went by in a blur. My vision was beginning to go blurry when I felt a warm hand on my cheek. I looked up and saw Embry in front of me with tears in his eyes. I slumped forward as the rope suddenly gave way. I soon realized Carlisle had snapped it. Embry caught me and laid me down on the ground, in the middle of all the fighting. Carlisle knelt down in front of me and began doing his doctor stuff on my injured shoulder. I couldn't even feel the pain anymore. All I felt was relief that Embry was right. They did find us. Then everything stopped. The growling and ripping noises stopped and Sam was above me. He didn't say anything. I looked down at the gash in my shoulder.

" W-what happened to-?"

" He's gone. For good. Jasper, Jared and Leah are burning the pieces." Sam interrupted me in a shaky voice. I dropped my head back.

" We need to get her to the hospital. I don't think it's bad, but her fingers broken. We need to get that set before it heals crooked." Carlisle said. I felt myself being lifted and I opened my eyes for a second and Sam was carrying out thru the hole they had made, walking over the jagged metal that littered the ground.

" Embry are you hurt?" Carlisle asked.

" No I'm good." Embry sounded exhausted. It was a few minutes before Sam stopped and I opened my eyes again. For the first time I looked to see where we were. It seemed like it was some sort of old storage building place. Big metal buildings were everywhere and there was also a rusting tractor. Embry opened the door to a black car and Sam sat me down inside the car.

" I'll stay and help you burn the pieces." Embry muttered. Carlisle nodded.

" Then Sam you drive her to the-"

" I sitting with her. Could you drive us?" Sam interrupted and Carlisle nodded. Embry bent down and kissed my forehead.

" I told it would all be okay." He muttered. Despite the pain in my shoulder I giggled. He stood back up and Sam got in and put my head in his lap. Carlisle got in a started the car. I closed my eyes and relaxed. I bit my lip to keep from crying out when my shoulder throbbed painfully. Sam stroked my forehead and I felt the car speeding up. Then I felt something warm on my forehead. Then there was another and I opened my eyes and looked into my brothers face. He was crying. Tears ran down his face and he wiped at them looking embarrassed. I tried to sit up.

" Don't" He said firmly. I went limp again and looked up at him, tears forming in my own eyes.

" I'm sorry Clair." He said shakily. I broke down and started sobbing. He stroked my hair and tried to calm me down but was having a hard time since he was trying not to cry. No matter how he tried not to sobs racked thru his body and he held me in a tight grip.

…...

It had been two days since they found me. Everyone went back to Forks except for Sam. Embry had stayed behind with Sam. My injury wasn't too deep. It had down anything more than tear the flesh. Everyday they were in my hospital room.

" How are you feeling?" Sam asked for the third time in thirty minutes. I looked at him with a raised brow. He rolled his eyes.

" Just answer the question. It'll make me feel better." He said.

" Alright. I feel fine." I said with a laugh and immediately regretted it when pain shot thru my arm. Embry and Sam rushed to my bed and I rolled my eyes.

" Your both nuts. I can't wait to get home." I said wincing.

" It'll be even worse when you get home." Sam said looking at his phone.

" What do you mean?" I asked with a frown.

" Emily texts every ten minutes to see how your doing." He said flipping his phone shut shaking his head.

" How much longer till I can go home?" I asked.

" They said as soon as your ready I can take you home." Sam said. I sighed in relief.

" I'm ready now." I said. An hour later, after the doctor gave me some pain pills to take, I was able to get dressed. That was a slow process though. Neither Sam or Embry could help me so it took about ten minutes just to get my shirt on

" Are you okay?" Sam asked knocking on my door.

" I'm fine." I grunted when I finally got the shirt on. Now I needed my pants. That took forever. But I eventually got them on and I sighed in relief. They took me back to the room in the hotel they had been staying in. As soon as I got there, Sam made me lay down. I didn't argue but did as he said.

" We'll let you rest today and tomorrow, if you feel okay, we'll start for home." Sam said sitting down on the end of the bed. I sighed and nodded. Embry smiled at me from the opposite bed and flipped the black remote to the TV in the air and caught.

" Because you're the sick one, you can choose what to watch." He said handing it to me. Sam chuckled and lounged on the bed beside me. I took it with a smile. I flipped thru the channels and stopped when I found one of my favorite movies, Van Helsing, was on. Sam winced and Embry laid back with a sigh.

" Here we go." He said with a sigh. I was happy. He was gone, for good, and I was with my two favorite boys. The only thing that would complete would be a Pizza and Dr. Pepper.

" Hey Sam?"
