Hmm, There IS A Light At The End Of The Tunnel


Recap: Adrian's POV:"Don't worry, you won't feel that way afterwords. I promise, you'll learn to love it." she purred speeding her gait and coming even closer to me. Right as I was about to spit out a witty retort I heard several howls and then we were surrounded by horse sized wolves. What the Hell?


Chapter 4: Who Let The Dogs Out?


Adrian's POV:

The stroigi's eyes widened in terror and shock. The wolves howled again and she tried running away. She didn't get far the russet colored one sunk its teeth into her leg. She screamed. Then it threw her back into the middle of the circle. She snarled at them and tried to make a break for it but the russet colored one snatched her mid-air. It slammed her into the ground and all the wolves joined in. they had her body ripped limb from limb. Her head rolled and her crimson eyes were staring into mine. Talk about creepy. The russet colored one and a black one went into the woods and the rest spread back out into a circle around me. A couple minutes later two bulky men stepped out of the forest with identical pairs of cut-off jeans on.

"Who are you?" the younger looking one asked me.

"Um, number one, aren't you nervous with these freaking gigantic wolves here? Number two, shouldn't I be the one asking questions? And number three, are you two on steroids?"


Bella's POV:

Beep. Beep. Beep. Ugh somebody turn that beeping off. I opened my eyes to a too white, too cold, and too familiar room. Why am I in the hospital this time? Ugh! I look around my room to see Charlie slumped over in a chair asleep. I sat up with some difficulty as there was a knock on the door and a doctor walked in. The knock woke Charlie and he was instantly at my side as the doctor checked my vitals and everything that was stuck into me. I can't look. But whatever is being injected into me is making me feel so much better.

"Isabella, can you tell us about what happened?" the doctor asked me.

"Well, I had just got home from a very long shopping trip with the girls when I felt kind of faint and an incredible pain washed over me. I looked in the upstairs bathroom for some medicine and found none. I headed to the stairs to go look in the kitchen for some medicine in their when gravity and I were once again reacquainted. I fell on the top step and tumbled down the rest. I blacked out when I finished rolling down the stairs."

"Do you know of anything that could have caused the dizzy spell and the pain?" he asked again while writing something on his clipboard.

"The food I ate when we were at the food court tasted bland but I can't really think of anything. Well, there was that guy." I said.

"What guy?" Charlie asked in Chief of Police tone.

"Oh it was just that there was this weird guy at the mall that was stressing me out. He was really weird and stuff. Probably nothing dad. No need to worry," I said but him and the doctor looked at each other with knowing looks. What is that about?

"Okay Isabella, I believe I know what the problem is but let me have a word with your father before we discuss it. Charlie, let's talk about this in my office." The doctor said and he and my dad left me in my hospital room totally confused.


Charlie's POV:

I wonder how Bella's shopping trip went. I know she absolutely loathes going, unless it's for the essentials. I hope everything went okay, I really need to sit her down and have a talk with her. I just got off my tedious shift in my cruiser watching for any drunk drivers or any unusual things. I locked my cruiser and walked in the house. I gasped as I saw my little girl in a heap at the bottom of the stairs.

"Bella!" I yelled rushing to her side. I checked her pulse. Oh thank God she has one. It's faint but she has one! I picked up my baby girl and put her in the cruiser and raced to the hospital. I'm so glad we live in a small town, we don't live too far from the hospital. I ran her into the ER and demanded a doctor and a room. I was acquiesced right away. Another bonus to living in a small town, no big lines to wait on. She was seen by Dr. Gene which was more than I would have hoped for. He was one of the few people or should I say vampires that know of Bella's condition. She was taken care of immediately but Dr. Gene told me the worst news I could have been given after Bella talked to him. The news that I've been dreading ever since Renee and I made the decision to hid Bella's true identity from herself. It was for the best but now we have to tell her, for her health. Hiding this big of a secret is killing her. I called Renee and she said I could go ahead and tell her. So after a heated talk about how to tell her about what she is we decided to just tell her. No sugarcoating it. We walked back in and I sat on the edge of her bed and took her hand in mine.

"Bella, I'm so sorry I didn't tell you this sooner. But you are not exactly normal."

"I am the clumsiest person alive." she tried to joke noticing the tension in the air. You'd have to be six feet under not to notice the tension.

"Yes, but that's just a side-effect." I told her.

"What do you mean it's only a side-effect? How can my clumsiness be a side-effect." She asked.

"I'm just going to come out and say it. Bella, you're a vampire." I said waiting for a reaction. A minute after I said it she burst into hysterical laughter.


(AN: Hello readers! Sorry that I haven't updated in a while. School is out and I've been super busy with puppet props and subbing for Sunday school teachers and babysitting writing a book, researching stuff for the book series and reading and tornadoes! Crazy huh? I hope we don't get hit with any more storms! I just want the sunshine! I also want my brothers arm to heal! He broke his finger/wrist on the last day of school when he was silly stringing a teacher and I promised to not swim until he is able to. So I'm getting pool withdrawals. I WANT TO SWIM! But anywho, I don't own Vampire Academy or Twilight. Insert super sad smiley. Well I hope you all liked this chapter! Tell me what you thought! Pretty please with sugar on top!)
