What had I done! He's doing it for me and there's nothing I can do! It was my fault, we had thought we had all the newborns and were making sure we had all the pieces. I had caught the scent of a bloodsucker, I was so happy that I could take one on my own.
I jumped forwards and bit down on it's arm but it was ready and swung it's other arm round in a wide arc. Impacting with my side I heard a loud crack, like a gunshot right in my ears. The newborn grabbed my neck and slammed me down on the ground, pain shooting through my broken ribs.
The bloodsucker was over me then, it's blood red eyes sparkling, reaching out to hug me, a hug that would kill me. Everything was going slow as if this was some sports slow mo replay. As the newborns arms closed around me something hit me in the side pushing me out of the way.
"She going to be alright, just keep her in bed OK?" The voice brought me out of unconsciousness.
"That may not be so easy with Leah." That one was my brother Seth. I could hear the worry in his voice. I tried to sit up and open my eyes but the fresh flash of pain knocked me out again.
Within days I was healed enough to go out, and so that was how I ended up outside Jacob's door. Stepping inside I saw him covered in braces, I only needed my side bound but he was still so broken that I felt tears begin the well up in my eyes.
"Hey Leah, what you doing here?" His voice was so week that I couldn't help my self, the tears started to flow. "Leah, whats up?"
"You idiot why would you save me?" I was yelling and couldn't stop, "Look at yourself that can't be worth my life! Nothing is worth my life!"
Before I knew what was happening his arms were around me. "Thank you for living Leah. Remember your life is worth any sacrifice." My tears were pouring down my face now, completely uncontrolled. "Thank you."
