I didn't want to open my eyes. The sound of the fighting was terrifying. I decided to risk it. I needed to see what was happening. The sight was worse than the sounds.

The seven Cullens were out numbered by the nine wolves but they were holding their own fairly well. One wolf, I couldn't tell which, was closing in on Jasper. Jasper easily snapped the wolf's neck. The wolf laid in the dirt, dead.

Then something strange happened. The wolf phased back to its human form. It was Collin. His neck was bent at an odd angle. It was different to see this side of the fight. At first you think your family is just fighting animals, but when the fade back to who they really are, people you know, it hurts. I didn't want this for the tribe, but the alternative was losing one of the Cullens, and that wasn't an option.

The battle was moving so fast that I could barely keep up. The Cullens seemed to have the upper hand, especially with the wolves that were newest to the pack. Three more were dead before I knew it. Paul, Jared, and Embry were laying lifeless in the field. With only five wolves left, I felt that the Cullens would come out all right.

Two of the wolves, Seth and Leah I guessed, had Emmett pinned to the ground, inches from tearing his throat out. Rosalie was at his side in a flash. She kicked Seth off of Emmett before grabbing Leah's upper and lower jaw and ripping her head in half. Leah's body transformed back to her human form. Seth stood frozen in place. You could see the sadness in his eyes, even though they were still his wolf eyes. He let out a low growl and charged at Rose with all his might. He leapt at her throat. Emmett caught Seth by his back legs, and tore them from their sockets. Seth let out a cry of pain. He was dragging himself through the grass with his front legs. Rose slowly walked over to him and rammed the spike of her heal through his head.

With only Quil, Brady, and Sam left the Cullens were fighting flawlessly. Quil tried to flank Esme, but Carlisle got to him first and killed him quickly. Brady didn't stand a chance against Alice either. She easily crushed his head between her tiny hands.

I searched the clearing for Edward. He was facing off with Sam. Sam was by far the largest wolf in the entire pack. Edward and Sam were circling each other. I knew that Edward was strong and a great fighter, but I was afraid for him. I was afraid his emotions would get the better of him and would make him falter. I wanted to scream to the other Cullens to rush over there and help him, but I couldn't find my voice.

Edward and Sam clashed in an instant. It happened so fast that if it wasn't for the sound, I would have sworn it didn't' happen. Sam had hit Edward in the chest knocking him over. Edward was on his feet in a flash. He knocked Sam back as well. It seemed to be a fairly even match.

Then Edward began to lose ground. I wanted to run to him. To stand between them and protect him, but I couldn't move. I was stuck to the ground watching. Sam had stood up on his back legs. He was easily four feet taller then Edward now. He raised his right arm and struck Edward across the chest, ripping his marble skin open.

Edward fell to the ground. I could clearly see his injuries.

"Edward!!" I was yelling to him. He needed to get up. He needed to defend himself. Sam made his way to him. He brought his teeth just above Edward's neck, ready to make the kill. I closed my eyes and waited.

It wasn't until I heard a loud snapping noise that I opened my eyes again. Esme was standing over Sam's quivering body. His back looked broken.

"You will not harm my son!" Carlisle was at her side pulling her back. Tears were streaming down her face. I could hear the bones in Sam's back healing and forming back into place. Emmett and Jasper finished him off before he could get back up. All the wolves were now dead, but Edward was still laying motionless on the ground.

I slowly rose up and made my way as fast I could to him. My side was in extreme pain from the broken ribs, but I didn't care. I needed to be with him. I needed to help him.

He was laying on his side with his back to me when I reached him. I grabbed his shoulders and turned him over. I gasped in horror.

"Edward, my God." Tears were running down my face. Edward had four deep gashes across his chest. There was no blood. That was good for me. I didn't want to faint.

Carlisle came over to examine him. He had a look of concern on his face.

"He will die if he doesn't heal." He voice sounded weak.

"He can, can't he?" I wanted to hear him say yes. I needed to hear a yes form Carlisle right now. I couldn't bear the thought of losing him.

"Yes. He can. Though I don't know if he will fast enough. We have never dealt with an injury like this. Usually we are injured by others of our kind, and those injuries are usually bites. The venom helps the healing process."

"Well can't one of you put venom on the wounds?" There was six other vampires here, so the venom would be in full supply.

"I don't know if it'll work, and I'm afraid to try. It could have negative side affects." Carlisle's face had confusion and worry written all over it. I was racking my mind for any idea of how to help. Edward was still, his eyes closed. He looked like he was dead. He stopped breathing but I had to remind myself that was normal.

Then an idea crossed my mind. It was something that I had seen over and over again in the movies about vampires. I wasn't sure if it would work but I was going to try anyways.

"I have an idea. It may not work, but I am sure as hell going to try. You guys might want to get back and put a little distance between us."

The Cullens looked hesitant but didn't ask any questions. They got up and ran to the far edge of the clearing. I hoped that they were far enough away for this to work.

"Edward. Open yours eyes for me please." He opened them slowly and I could see all his pain in his eyes. "Edward I'm going to try to help you. I trust you. It'll be ok. I love you so much."

With that, I grabbed his hand, separating his index finger from the rest, and using his finger nail, cut a gash in my forearm.
