A Quil/Claire Imprint Story
Chapter 9 Unwelcome Guests
A vampire stepped out in to the cloudy light.
Nessie hissed. Then let out a loud growl. I froze in place.
"It's nice to finally meet you Renesmee. But you don't seam to friendly. Oh, and protecting a human. Well, she'll be a snack when I'm done with you. And I'm Kylie." She slipped into an offensive crouch just like Nessie.
"Claire, scream for Quil. I'm gonna need some help real soon," she whispered.
Kylie lunged at Nessie.
"Quiiiiiilllllllll!!" I screamed as loud as I could. Nessie made sure she stayed between me and Kylie. I was still frozen. I heard a crack and saw something fly from the woods. A large russet colored wolf appeared from the woods to help Nessie.
"Jake, you get Kylie, I'll protect Claire until Quil gets here." Nessie blocked my view from Kylie and wolf Jake. I was glad. I really didn't want to watch. I could hear the nasty cracking noises. A small, gray wolf appeared next and came up behind Kylie. Then I saw a chocolate brown wolf that ran right past the fight and right up to me. I immediately recognized the wolf as Quil. He bent down until he was eye level with me and tilted his head.
"Ya I'm fine. Nessie protected me." He sighed in relief then turned his head and growled at Jake.
"Stop that Quil. I like Jake." Nessie giggled. Quil then disappeared into the woods and I felt hurt. He then came back in his human form. He tossed something to Nessie who was now standing by Jake. She lit a match so I assumed he tossed her a matchbox. A sickening sweet smoke took over the air.
"Claire, are you sure you're alright?" Quil sounded concerned. I nodded afraid my voice would break.
"Quil. take her to Emily's. We'll be there in a sec," Nessie suggested. Quil picked me up and carried me to Emily's. It was almost dinner time and I could smell her cooking. Vanessa saw us coming and opened the door.
"What's wrong with Claire?" concern showed in her face.
"I'm fine Vanessa. Quil just thought that we would get here faster this way cuz he's hungry," I lied. I was sure of my voice now.
"Quil's always hungry." Quil set me down and I walked into the kitchen. Emily saw my face.
"Girls, why don't you go over to Kim's and play with Annie. I have a feeling it's going to get crowded real soon."
"OK. C'mon Vanessa," Danielle said dragging her out the door.
As soon as they were out the door, Aunt Emily demanded, "What happened? I heard you scream."
'Let's wait for everyone else so we don't have to tell the story over again," Quil suggested. Emily turned back to the stove to stir a huge pot of noodles.
The front door opened and in came Sam, Jake holding Nessie close to him, Embry, Leah, Seth and Paul. "Jared, Paul, and Brady'll be here soon. Where the girls?" Sam asked looking around.
"I just sent them over to Kim's."
"Oh OK." The door opened again. This time Jared walked in with a smug grin on his face.
Quil rolled his eyes. "What'd you do now?"
"Nothing, just plotting revenge."
Collin groaned. "I'm dead now, right?"
"Ya, you are."
"Jared, save it. We still have a big problem."
"I thought you took care of the one on the beach."
"Ya, we did. But this one had a different scent than the one I smelled this morning," Nessie said.
"You mean there's another one? Sweet. I want to go after this one. I haven't had a good fight in years," Paul said.
I left the kitchen. This is just sick. They wanted to go fight vampires, like it was fun or something. I was curled up on the couch thinking about everything that happened this weekend, when someone sat down beside me, Quil. He pulled me into his arms and whispered, "It's alright. Don't be afraid. We'll take care of this fast."
"Would you stop telling me not to be scarred! I'M NOT SCARRED!!" I yelled at Quil. It got quiet in the kitchen. Great they heard me. The phone rang breaking the silence. I heard Aunt Emily talking quietly.
"Claire, honey? That was your mom. She wants you to come home. She says you still have some homework to do and to remind you that you have school tomorrow. I'll take you home. Nessie, can you finish the spaghetti and serve it for me. I'll be home in a couple hours. And when the girls come home remind them that they have homework too."
"Sure Emily." I heard other muffled noises downstairs but I couldn't make them out. I packed my things and went downstairs.
OK I hope you guys liked this chapter and I did get it up today. The next chapter will be up tomorrow at the latest. Don't forget to review!!
