A/N: Thanks so much for the reviews! I love hearing what you guys have to say!
With the wards up and the potions ready the sun began to sink on the western horizon. Our bad with the clothes and extra potions we would need in the morning were just outside the boundary next to a bush underneath a pine tree so as to not get wet by the morning dew.
Moony was in the middle lying on his back with only a small towel covering his modesty.
He was much paler and sickly looking and his black tattoos stood out against his pale skin. It broke my heart to see him like this, no one deserved this no matter who they were. I sat Indian style in my large undershirt next to Sirius who was stretched out in his black and red plaid boxers beside me.
I wore nothing underneath, when I changed into a fox I would be naked anyway so it was pointless wearing clothes. Prongs, Padfoot and Moony were the same way, only Moony was covered by the small cloth towel while James and Sirius were in boxers.
James was strengthening the electrical dome we had placed up to keep Remus in a controlled area. There were to many lives at stake to let him run wild like we did sometimes at Hogwarts. We were in a new area and I didn't want to take any chances.
It was just us and Dumbledore wasn't here to help us if something went wrong. James walked over to us, the sun was just about to fully sink below the horizon diminishing the last few rays of sun light.
James secured his wand with our stuff and with one final glance the sun extinguished its final gold sliver revealing the full moon who shown proudly in an arrogant way as if mocking us and poor Remus who began to violently shake.
I looked away not being able to look at my best friend as he cried out in pain from the changes that morphed his body into the shape of a wolf. I pulled the white undershirt off and breathed in the cool air as my body changed in the fox form.
I loved changing, it's so easy for me and the way I can change, move, and push my body into shapes, forms and objects with just a simple breath. It was like breathing.
The cries of pain turned into a loud, eerie howl that echoed threw the trees and off the mountains in the distance. I looked to Remus and the moon shown off of his silver gray coat illuminating the gold off his natural human hair.
I crouched into a defensive position and he crouched lower snarling as he bared his long sharp fangs that hung below his jaws and dripped with his poisonous venom that would kill vampires and turn humans. A true child of the moon.
I saw James prancing trying to draw his attention towards the left side where as Sirius and I occupied the right side.
Sirius and I growled at the same time only aggravating Remus more. After the change he was pure, raw energy that we needed to release and wear him out so by morning it was easier for him to turn back human, less painful because he was so tired.
I took off to the right with Sirius beside me and Prongs ran in the other direction. Moony looked at both of us deciding which to go at, he took off after James and Padfoot turned to go help James as Remus pounced on him pushing him down as he
stumbled under the sudden weight and the pain Remus inflicted from digging his sharp claws into James's back. Sirius bit into the scruff of Remus's neck pulling him off.
Prongs leapt up as Padfoot and Moony started to wrestle the sound of yelps, growling, teeth snapping, and a pure animal fight was the only sound that could be heard.
I jumped into the tussle defending Sirius. I bared my teeth and bit into Moony making him yelp as I bit down harder but he in turn threw Sirius off and charged at me.
I braced myself, preparing for the impact but at the last minuet Prongs head butted Remus with his strong bone like antlers.
I looked at James silently thanking him. He nodded his reply. I heard the snapping of teeth and growling which brought us out of our mini conversation.
Sirius and Remus were going at it again. I charged forward to help Sirius and James ran by my side. Tonight was going to be a long night.
I sighed in relief as I saw the night begin to lighten, that meant we only had less than an hour more. I don't know why Remus is so riled up tonight but I was so tired.
Blood, sweat, and mud covered me and I panted taking a moment to try and catch my breath before going after Remus again. Sirius was running to help James who was trying to throw Remus off his back.
I could feel Remus tremble, he would be turning soon. The energy increased in his body as I began to run towards the werewolf and stag to help my friend.
Prongs was bleeding badly on his back, I prepared myself to jump and push Moony off. Sirius beat me there and gave me a smirk as he passed me like this was some kind of game.
If he thinks this is a game it's pretty damn fucked up! I will never understand that child, he wants to take the hit be my guest.
James stood a moment to allow himself to breath, I could tell he was in pain but like all of his he ignored it and pushed himself harder. Sirius struggled with Remus as they thrashed about, biting, shoving, scratching, throwing, anything they could do to get the upper hand.
Sirius needed help so I pushed myself faster, Sirius was starting to get tired and if I didn't get there in time he could get severely hurt. Finally I reached him and jumped up over Sirius and onto Remus. Sirius lead on the ground bleeding heavily from his side and right leg.
I bit hard into Remus's neck dragging him away from Padfoot. He struggled but I only bit down further making him howl in agony. I let go of Remus but pounced towards him growling and snapping my jaws. He did the same.
Knocking me to the ground I kicked up and scratched at his stomach trying to get him off of me but I couldn't and after fighting all night I was tired. I need to focus! Focus! I pushed harder but to no avail he wouldn't let up.
I heard James run towards me as I finally stopped my thrashing and looked Remus, the wolf, directly in the eye. I felt his jaws secure around the upper part of my stomach and chest, the fangs easily sinking in an inch. I screamed in pain, James had to help me.
Remus never looked away, we held eye contact and his growling grew the vibrations coming from the deep depths of his chest.
A warning. I looked to the east to see the light, it was almost over, just a few more minuets. Remus bit harder but James was quicker knocking him off of me but that only made his teeth tear threw my flesh making two long deep gashes from my stomach to my chest.
The smell of the blood was unbearable and the pain became to much as darkness enveloped me.
I rolled in and out of consciousness as I felt myself being levitated back to the Cullens. I was still in my fox form and a large t-shirt was wrapped tightly around my middle where the cuts were still lightly bleeding.
I was so sore and my middle was burning and it hurt to breathe. I hope Moony is okay, and I wonder how James and Sirius are…I don't think I can open my eyes yet. I groaned, "You are all right Vix, we're almost there."
I recognized Sirius's voice, he must be the one levitating me. It wasn't much longer that I heard Sirius call out for Carlisle. I smelled Edwards sent and was transferred to his arms. "Bella?" He asked quietly. I whimpered. "We need to get her upstairs, she has to change back. I have the blood replenishing potions, pain potions, healing potions, and sleep potions.
She'll need stitches, well I think we all need stitches somewhere, James's back is pretty messed up. I need stitches on my leg and chest. Are you guys okay?" Sirius asked as he spoke to the Cullens. I noticed everyone was staying in the kitchen while only Edward, Alice, and Carlisle were in the living room. James transfigures some pillows into simple medical beds that I was gently placed on. I heard Sirius, James and Remus all sit down on their cots as well.
They groaned in unison officially feeling the soreness of moving into a different position. "Bella I'm going to change you back, do you want them to leave?" I heard James ask me, once I was in my human form I would be naked. I didn't care, Edward was going to see me naked sooner or later, so I urged him to go ahead and change me. I heard Alice run upstairs, probably to get clothes which I was grateful. "Remove the t-shirt Edward, Carlisle you should work on Remus first."
James said I felt Edwards cool hands gently untied and remove the bloodied shirt. Sirius got up again and told me to relax. I knew the drill after the many full moons with Remus. I prepared myself mentally for the pain to come and held in my cries as I was changed back to human.
My eyes rolled in the back of my head as the cuts ripped even longer and smell of blood made me nauseous. I opened my eyes to see myself covered in mud and blood. Edward was watching me as he placed his cool hands on the side of my face relaxing me.
I leaned into his touch not even caring that I was completely naked. Alice was at my side holding my hips up gently to slide on a pair of soft cotton underwear and soffee shorts which she rolled down to sit low on my hips like I liked. I smiled at her and she grinned taking out a thing of baby wipes, gauze, non-stick pads, and peroxide.
Why vampires have those things I will never know.
I caught Edward staring at my chest and how he shifted uncomfortably in his seat. I grinned embarrassingly and snapped my fingers to get his attention. "Are you going to stitch me up? I'm getting light headed from the loss of blood." I said in a hoarse whisper.
I didn't blame him for looking though, not in a conceited way, but because I knew he was attracted to me and I was covered in blood. For a vampire that's one hell of a fantasy! He shook his head and took the needle and thread Carlisle handed him and began to work.
Edward worked fast and soon I was stitched all the way up and the healing, blood replenishing, and pain potions were in my system beginning to work instantly. I sighed in relief from the pain. Edward wrapped my chest in gauze and put an Ace bandage over top to keep any possibly broken ribs in place.
I was half asleep and Sirius was already passed out and snoring like the freight train he is, James was trying to stay awake wanting to watch Carlisle stitch up the last cut on his back. Remus was all wrapped up and sleeping on the transfigured medical bed snoring lightly.
I leaned against Edward as he picked me up bridal style and carried me to his room where a king size bed sat in the middle of his room. I moaned as I felt the softness of the mattress and silk sheets sink against my weight. I didn't realize how tired I was but I was pulled backwards against Edwards chest enveloping myself in his sent. Falling into a deep sleep I relaxed letting my body heal and not waking up for two more days.

Sneak Peek:
"I was wondering if she could come and stay with us until we leave for my house." I smiled at James's shyness of asking such a silly questions.
"Of course she can, you know I love her like a sister! My dad knows who she is and he won't care, I'm sure he'll completely understand. I feel terrible, why don't you call her now."
I said and laughed as he raced to the phone.
