Well, In the first chapter Jacob was killed. We know what he was thinking but what was Charlie thinking when the shot was fired? Let's find out...

Disclaimer: I do not own the characters of Twilight, but mind you I had to make up a few characters. There just aren't enough police officers to go around in this scene.

Charlie's POV

A bunch of the guys from the station agreed to go on a hunting trip together, ya know safety in numbers kinda thing. We were hunting the highly dangerous giant bear, only my Bella claimed that they were more like wolves. She was really shaken up about her encounter with them and she really didn't want me going on this hunting trip. But it's my duty as a cop to protect the citizens of Forks.

"Goodbye Bella!" I yelled. "I'm going now!" I heard some shuffling from upstairs and then Bella appeared at the top of the stairs.

"Bye, Dad. please be careful, you don't know how, uh dangerous they could be." She pleaded.

"Bella your acting like a child! Now, relax watch some TV, invite Jess over or something.Or maybe Jacob!" I said. She glared at me, but her eyes were full of hurt. I heard a car horn and ran to the car waiting for me and waved to Bella. She smiled slightly.

"Hey guys! How's it going'?" I said as I climbed into the car. "Hey, Sal! How are the kids?" Sal was the new guy at the station, the rookie.

"They're good, how's Bella?" He asked.

" She's, well good. She is really worried I'm gunna get hurt. She really didn't want me to go with you guys!!" All nodded, and mumbled things like "So is my wife" or "I no what you mean" and a few "My kids have been climbing all over me wanting to come."

We talked about our family's all the ride there, laughing at how worried they were. We all knew we were laughing at their worry because we felt the same but didn't want to show it.

" Guys we should probably split up into groups of 4 so we can surround the beast when we find 'em!" Gerry, the station owner

" Um, Gerry there's only 7 of us here right now. Don't you think we should wait until everybody else get's here before telling the plan?" I said, Gerry had a habit of getting excited and not thinking logically. It might be the death of him one day, but today better not be the day or this creature is gunna die from a shot through his damn head!! I turned as two more cars pulled up. Seven more people piled outa the first car. But only three people came out of the other car. 17 people. Uneven groups, were going to have to have one group of five. I decided to take charge. I pointed to a group of guys I didn't know. Must be some friends of Gerry's.

"You guys stand over there. You group one." I said and pointed to another four guys. "You guys are group 2. I'll be in your group." It went on like that until everybody was in a group. We all went into the forest, but always staying close to each other in case the beast came up.

We had been out in the forest for 4 hours, with no luck. Not even a glimpse of the beast. There were paw prints every where. They were huge!! I kind of didn't want to see the rest of this creature. The I spotted a trail of tracks that looked fresh. They led to a clearing, and in the clearing I saw the beast. I was stuck with a pang of fear, but recovered quickly, no need to get nervous it will just make me seem more vulnerable. I waved to the rest of the group and they knew that I had spotted him. We all crept up and surrounded the creature, at as safe a distance as possible. We raised are guns and fixated them at the animal. The thing stirred and woke up. For a couple seconds it just lay there, ears perked. Then it stood up, bared it's teeth and growled. I kept thinking of Bella, it would do her no god for me to be afraid. Thinking of Bella kept my mind clear, and my nerves calm. I'll kill this thing for Bella, for everyone that was killed by it and it's little friends. Well maybe not little but you get my point. It turned around in circles, baring it's teeth. It stopped when it got to me. I tightened my grip on the gun. Don't feel fear, feel hate. I looked into the beast's eyes, they were that of a human's. No! This is a killing animal where are talking about. It needs to die.Then I looked at the entire creature. Damn was it huge! I was scared. NO! I wasn't going to be scared, I would kill this creature for Bella. He scared her silly, I haven't seen her shake that much since Edward left her. Now that he was back the only thing that scared her was me going hunting for these wolves. Or whatever the hell they are. I hated this thing for scaring Bella like that. Hated it with all that I have. Then the thing turned it's head and started pacing again. It stopped and titled it's head back, I knew what was coming before it even happened. I started to back away from the circle. It was going to jump over the guy's head's while they covered there ear's. Well this beast was no fool, I'll give it that. I saw it turn towards the direction it was going to jump. I sprinted to the spot it was going to land. I'll shoot this bastard as it lands. I saw it soar through the air, a triumphant look on it's wolverine face. I smiled an impish grin and raised my gun. I put my finger over the trigger, and made preparation to kill. It landed, i could see it's nostrils quiver as it smelled me. Then it looked up at me, it's triumphant look gone. I pulled the trigger and shot him right in the chest. Perfect hit. The thing fell to the ground with a thud. Blood pouring from it's wound, it was breathing raspy. I wish i knew what was going on in it's mind right now. I was thinking of Bella, of how she would be safe now. Or safer anyway. The creature was now dead. And everyone was coming over to see it. A group of guys where Tying him up and attempting to carry it back to the car. We were really close to the edge of the forest, strange since most animals prefer to go deeper in, well this creature wasn't most animals. We all helped to lug this thing in to the car. We all decided to get it stuffed and keep it at the station as a memorabilia of what happened.

"Bells?? I'm home!!" I yelled. No answer. I went into the kitchen. There was dinner on the table with a note next to it.

I'm at the Cullen's house. Alice insisted on doing my make-up. Be back soon. I love you!

Bella

Looks like I'm on my own. Well dinner does look good, and it smells amazing. I got a fork and started digging in. Chicken parmesan, my favorite. I was finished in about five minutes. After that i was really tired so i decided to take a nap, feeling very satisfied with myself. I was out within 3 minutes.

Bella's POV

"Edward, how can you expect me to have my make-up done while Jacob is out there with all those hunters with guns!!! Do you really think i can not worry, I mean after all that he did for me?" I exclaimed.

"Easy, just keep telling yourself that he can take care of himself! Look Bella, he's a werewolf and a bunch of police men aren't going to hurt him!" Edward assured me. We were in the silver Volvo heading towards his house, i thought of getting my make-up done by Alice as an excuse for going to the Cullen's, but Edward thought it would take my mind off of Jacob. So now I'm stuck getting my make-up done instead of being with him!!!

"What are you thinking?" Edward asked.

"I'm thinking how utterly ridiculous this is!! There are other things that would take my mind off of Jacob." I said looking at him. "Can't we at least go to the meadow? We have no alone time anymore! Please!!!"

"Well... Fine. I suppose your right!
