Quil you need to just suck it up. She's not a child anymore. She's twenty one. -Embry
Quil was furious and upset about what happened on the beach that morning. So upset that he hadn't stopped running all day and it was near midnight now. Embry and Seth were now running their patrol with Quil beside them.
She acts like a child though! Jumping off cliffs, swimming in freezing water, meeting Miss Sarlo, sneaking out the house! -Quil
He knew he was probably overreacting but he was also just had his spot on the couch taken by Leah. He was bitter to say the least. Claire was his imprint.
Right, your imprint. Not your child. She is an adult now Quil and you have to remember that. -Embry
Quil let out what sounded like a sigh before skidding to a halt. He stopped and looked up at the clear winter sky. It was calling for snow again and he was secretly hoping to make snow angels again with Claire. He began to feel bad about running all day instead of trying to patch things up.
I think you just need to apologize. -Seth
Seth was running the border of La Push and Forks when he caught the scent. The vampires scent. He let out a howl signaling the others.
Shit. Who is going to watch Claire? -Quil
He took off to where Seth was running. He was following the fresh scent. They all knew Leah was still at the house with Claire but once she heard the howl would she think it was clear to come out?
Same bitch as before? -Paul
Paul was excited to try and take this leech out again. He was tired of her slipping away. He was also tired of the same nasty scent over and over.
Same one? -Sam
Sam was trying to catch up with the others now. They were all headed towards the line between towns and were hoping to catch her before she got into town or neighborhoods.
Is she staying on the line for an easier get away? -Leah
Leah had made sure Claire and Ben were both sound asleep before making an exit. She had gotten them both full of liquor to make sure they slept soundly for the night. She wasn't going to miss this action though.
Leah! Who is watching Claire? -Quil
Quil was counting all the wolves in his mind and he knew three were still missing but maybe they just hadn't heard the call yet. Or caught the scent themselves.
No one. She's fine. Sound asleep. Let's just catch this bitch! -Leah
They all took off harder except for Quil. He was slowing down and getting distracted. He wanted nothing more then to go and make sure his imprint was okay.
No Quil, let's just go get the leech. -Sam
He pulled out the alpha voice so Quil had no choice but to go. They all followed the scent until finally they could see glimpses of the vampire running. They could hear her laughing. She was taunting them. But then she made a hard right. All wolves turned to follow but lost sight again. They followed the scent and realized exactly where she was going.
Claire's house.
Not on my watch. -Quil
Quil moves quicker and soon passes the others. Seth, Sam and him were all neck to neck running. They would not let her get Claire. They would not let her get away.
She was as good as dead.
Finally though Quil passed Seth and Sam and was in front. He was directly behind the vampire and once he saw a good log to leap from he did so. He landed on the vampires back and pinned her down. This was the closest they had ever been to her. Sam phased out and stood back as the rest circled her and Quil.
"Who are you?" Sam asked as he stared at the vampire that wasn't struggling. She was just laying still.
"My name is Ada," her voice was like a song. Beautiful and almost hypnotizing.
"What do you want with Claire?" Sam asked as Quil pushed her harder into the ground.
Don't break her yet, we do need answers idiot. -Embry
Quil told himself to wait until the signal. Once Sam gave the okay then he would rip her head off. He would do it with a smile on his face for stalking his Claire.
"Claire?" Ada answered with a smirk on her face. She knew the wolf on her back had a tie to Claire. She knew it killed him to not kill her yet so she was going to drag this on.
"Don't play games with us," Sam nodded at Paul who grabbed her left arm and tore it out of socket. The other wolves growled in delight. Ada didn't scream though. She didn't even flinch. She knew she had played the game a bit too close tonight so being caught was inevitable.
"Oh, right, Claire. Her blood smells delicious," Ada sounded nonchalant as she tried to shrug under Quil but couldn't. He had her pinned so tight to the earth that her body was basically sinking into the dirt.
"Does anyone else know?" Sam asked as he watched his pack move closer. They were all eager to tear in to her.
"Know about Claire? Oh yes, my mate," Ada chuckled before having her right arm torn off. Leah tossed it behind her moving closer to get in the vampires face.
"Down doggy or no more information," Ada blinked innocently as she watched Leah snort and take a few steps back.
"Who is your mate?" Sam asked as he held up his hands. He needed as much information as possible before they killed her. They needed to protect Claire.
"His name is Klaus," Ada was only giving simple answers. Just enough to prolong the killings but just vague enough to not give them any real important information.
"Anymore information then that?" Sam asked as he lowered his hands and watched his pack begin to circle. They were all done and ready.
"Tell Claire I said hello," Ada smiled wickedly before closing her eyes. The pack all jumped and started tearing her apart. Quil got the honor of ripping her head off. Once all was said and done Sam lit the fire as the others howled. It was over. Claire was safe.
Go tell her. But hey, I'm still sleeping on the couch. You lost that spot. -Leah
Quil didn't have to argue back to know it was the right thing to do now. He took off towards the house in hopes of Claire just accepting the apology.
"Claire, Claire wake up," Quil gently shook a snoring Claire. She was laying on top of her blanket wearing only a pair of black silk shorts and a matching top. She looked beautiful despite the drool coming out of her mouth. Quil shook Claire again before she finally stared to stir.
"Go away," Claire pushed the air before rolling onto her side. She had goosebumps on her skin which told Quil she was cold.
"Claire, I need you to get up," Quil ran a hand over her bare arm as lightly as possible. He remembered the more you bothered her the easier it was to wake her. He tickled the crook of her elbow before he drummed his fingers on her scalp. He loved the feeling of her short hair under his fingers. It was a reminder on how she was getting to be herself now.
"Go away dammit," Claire now shot you and went to shove the person bugging her but hands caught hers. Quil held her steady as Claire slowly adjusted to seeing in the dark room around her.
"We just need to talk," Quil whispered remembering Ben was still in the house across the hall. He also knew Leah would probably be eavesdropping for the others somewhere.
"About what?" Claire was still slurring her words as she sat back on her bed making room for Quil to sit. Quil sat gently on the edge of her bed. Touching was still foreign to them minus the occasional hug or fist bump.
"About earlier. I'm sorry. You aren't a child anymore and I shouldn't be so...worrisome all the time," Quil was watching Claire as she stared at her ceiling. Claire was watching the ceiling spin though.
"You're right. I'm not a child anymore Quil," Claire shook her head and felt the wall behind her rub.
"I promise I'll try harder to let you be you, cliff diving and all," Quil would make her promise later about no funny business but for now he could just agree to this.
"And no more sleeping on the couch?" Claire asked as she stared dead into his eyes. Or what at least she thought were his eyes.
"No more sleeping on the couch...because we caught her tonight," Quil had a smug smile on his face. He was proud to have caught and kill the bitch.
"She's gone?" Claire now sat up straight and held her breath.
"She's gone," Quil confirmed before placing a hand on top of hers.
