Authors note: So, I had a lot of people (over half who reviewed) asking me to continue this and I got a brain wave so...this is the beginning to the rest of the story! This story is completely for fun and just something to do when I'm struggling with the rest of my stories...technically, I should be revising but I got attacked by plot bunnies.

A huge thank you to my bestest buddy Crabby Head for looking over this chapter and giving me some ideas for the future.

Escape!

Jake's POV

I returned home a couple of hours later and the cottage was eerily quiet. I literally couldn't hear anything from inside and I was beginning to think the worst. Even if my parents-in-law were mad (understatement of the century) they wouldn't really hurt Nessie, would they?

As I pushed open the door to the living room, glancing around at the devastated furniture, I was beginning to seriously consider it as a possibility. Of course I was getting suspicious! Nobody was here, there was nothing in the room still standing and when I left Bella and Edward were more than a little bit mad.

"Ness?" I called into the empty house and, as predicted, there was no reply. "Nessie, you here?" My heart was pounding much faster than normal and I was really starting to panic. I needed to know where she was, I needed to know she was ok.

"Renesemee's with Bella. She's fine...which is something that won't be said about you when I'm done with you." I jumped when I heard the harsh growl behind me and spun around to see Edward standing in the doorway of the living room, effectively blocking my escape route, with pitch black eyes and a wicked grin that spread across his face when he saw my slightly fearful expression. Ok, so 'slightly' may be an understatement but he looked flipping creepy right now! Not to mention the fact that I could see Jasper and Emmett standing behind him. That definitely wasn't good.

I mean, sure, I could take Edward easy but all three of them at once? No, I was dead. It was such a strange situation to be in. Even when me and Edward were going through our 'mortal enemies, hating each other and fighting over Bella phase' it was only ever just him that I would think about fighting. But now all three of them?! What did I do to deserve this?...ok, well, sleeping with his daughter and getting her pregnant may have something to do with it but just because he was a completely prude for over one-hundred years doesn't mean everybody else has to be as well!

The furious growl from Edward indicated right now may not be the right time to think that. I could rant to myself later but right now I needed to escape before I was murdered by my in-laws. Although, I must say this fate is much more appealing than one concerning Bella. At least this way it would be over relatively quickly. Bella would be more likely to prolong my death but from the looks Edward's giving me right now I'd say that option was extremely tempting for him.

"Don't worry, Jacob. I swore to Nessie I wouldn't kill you." The way he said those two sentences didn't give me any consolation at all but instead made a shiver of fear shoot down my spine. I was much more panicked than I thought I would be and I blame Jasper for that – flipping manipulative vampire.

An evil grin spread across Edward's face and I got the hell out of there. There was no way I was going to wait around and see what Edward and his cronies had planned for me. I silently thanked Nessie for always wanting the windows open to let fresh air into the house and dived out the living room window, phasing mid-air and full on sprinting through the woods.

I could hear the footsteps of my in-laws quickly approaching me and I pushed myself faster. I needed to find Nessie. I know it's pathetic that I'm searching for my tiny imprint to protect me but desperate times call for desperate measures and I certainly wasn't looking forward to being attacked by three experienced vampires. That certainly wasn't on my 'to do' list but, then again, running for my life wasn't high on my list of priorities either.

I caught Nessie's scent quickly and followed my nose, very aware that I was being followed and my pursuers were catching up. Damn fast vampires.

I was too busy concentrating on the enraged vampires behind me to notice a blur of movement crash into me, knocking me off my feet and onto my side, and I let out a little yelp of surprise. "Hey, Jakey." I found myself looking into the wonderful chocolate eyes of my imprint and I have never felt as relieved as I did then. She was ok and she was here with me.

The way she had landed on me meant I was lying sprawled on my side with her lying half on me, kneeling on the ground beside me as she brushed her fingers through my fur. A small frown graced her features as she studied my face. I have no idea how, but she could always easily read my expressions whether I was in human or wolf form.

"Are you alright?" She asked softly then snapped her head up just as Edward and co. arrived at the scene of the crime.

"Nessie, step away from the dog." Edward snarled as he took a step towards me and Nessie jumped to her feet, enraged. Right now, I wasn't sure what was scarier; Edward or Nessie, and Nessie's rage wasn't even directed at me.

"Dad! You promised you wouldn't hurt him." She accused and I pulled myself to my feet, standing closely behind Nessie.

"No, I promised I wouldn't kill him; there's a substantial difference." Edward stated and I swear Nessie was shaking with anger. She actually looked like she was going to attack him so I gently nudged her shoulder with my nose, trying to calm her down. She relaxed, but only slightly, and I tensed completely when I heard Bella arrive. I glanced over at her and noticed an eerily calm expression on her face. I think I preferred the anger to that. I wasn't sure what to expect.

"Dad, you hurt him and I swear you'll regret it." Nessie hissed. "Mom's ok with it, why can't you be?" I certainly think 'ok with it' was not the right term to describe Bella. Her expression was forced and she looked like she was going to explode from trying to contain her emotions.

"Ok with it? She is not ok with it! I will never be ok with it! Nessie you...you both...he..." He stuttered, his voice growing quieter at the end.

"He put his thing in her and knocked her up. Yes, Edward, that has already been established." Emmett grinned and I looked at him with my mouth hanging wide open. I was certainly not expecting him to be annoying Edward at a time like this. Wasn't he going to attack me or something? Apparently, Edward felt the same because he finally tore his glare off of me and directed it at Emmett.

"What?!" Edward growled at him but Nessie spoke before he could say anything further.

"Dad, this is happening whether you like it or not. You'll have to get used to it at some point. Alice has already informed me that you won't be mad forever and Emmett agrees that when the baby comes along, you might actually be happy about it." She stated calmly and I looked at her in surprise. Alice and Emmett knew? Why didn't she tell me this before? I wouldn't have been half as terrified if I knew I had Emmett on my side when I got confronted back at the cottage.

"What?!" Edward repeated himself and lunged at Emmett. "You knew! You knew and you didn't tell me?" There was a blur of movement and when they stilled Edward was being restrained by both Jasper and Emmett.

"Calm down, Edward." Jasper spoke quietly and Edward's struggles lessened slightly.

"Jasper, I thought you were on my side in all of this."

"I am but attacking Emmett isn't going to help this situation." He stated calmly before shooting a glare at me.

"It'll make me feel better." Edward muttered and Emmett let out a loud laugh.

"Dad, stop being awkward. Can't you see this is making me happy? I want this. I thought you might be happy about it." Nessie said softly and I could tell the water works were starting. She was getting hormonal already, great. I nuzzled my nose against her cheek and she turned around, wrapping her arms around my neck and burying her face in my fur.

"Fine, I won't hurt him...yet. But you'll have to be the one to tell Rosalie and the others." Edward said as a grin spread across his face. It was the grin I had come to hate. I had completely forgotten about Blondie. Her reaction was certainly not going to be good. I'll be lucky if I'm still alive tomorrow.
