Oh, my god guys. This chapter is five thousand words long. I know. Insane!

So, there were only two people who were nice enough to give me their opinions, the rest of you, I can honestly say that I'm very dissappointed in you. The two people who gave me opinions both said to add the plot change in, and so that's what I'm doing. This chapter contains a lot of information and I don't know if you guys caught it, but there has been a lot of foreshadowing in earlier chapters that hinted at something like this happening.

Everdeen's POV

The ice show went pretty well.

I went to sleep last night, my only thought that I hoped the next one would be just as good, if not better.

Too bad life never gives you what you want...

I was on the beach that morning when I saw Seth again.

"Morning." I called.

He smiled. "Morning Everdeen. Hey, what are you doing today?" He asked me.

I smiled. "I have an ice show today."

"Really? What time?"

"Two in the afternoon. Why?"

"I was thinking I could come." He told me. "It'll be really cool to see you skate. Is it in Seattle?"

I nodded. "Yup. It's like seven dollars or something."

He nodded as well. "Alright, I think I'll be there." He told me.

I smiled widely. "Awesome! I can't wait."

We hung out on the beach for a while before I had to go so I could get to the rink in time. I was looking forward to seeing Seth there. I really was. Why though, I had no idea.

Opening had gone really well. No one fell or let go. It was probably our best time going through it over all.

In the locker room after opening I chatted a little bit with Melody and Julia. In the short conversation we had while changing and putting out skates on, I found out that the reason they were so tan was because they were from a reservation next to Seattle. I told them about my moving to a Reservation down in La Push.

During intermission, Melody had headed out to the crowd so that she could talk with her brother and promised that she'd watch our performances. This left me with a little bit of time to talk to Julia alone for once. I mean, it's not that I don't love Melody like she's my actual sister, It's just that I never get any time with just Julia.

While we changed Julia spoke up. "You know, I've never seen my brother look at a girl the way he looks at you." She stated.

I turned my head to look at her. "Really? I wonder why."

Julia shrugged. "Who knows. It's my brother we're talking about, remember?" She laughed.

I laughed with her, and that's where the conversation ended.

The second half opening wasn't super awesome, but it was good enough. I put my foot down on a landing and one of my spins was travelly.

I was really proud of Julia's solo performance. I mean honestly. She landed all her skills just as planned, and the only thing is one of her spin positions wasn't the greatest I'd seen her do. Other than that though, it rocked.

Right after I put my skates on for my solo, I headed out and warmed up behind the curtain.

I could tell my axis was off in my jumps, as I warmed them up, but me, being me, decided to do all the jumps the way I planned. Triples and doubles. No singles.

When the music started playing after I took the ice, I smiled as convincingly as I could, when I was really dreading the jumps in my program. Because there were a whole lot of them.

I popped my first jump, and landed the second with two feet. My spin traveled a lot and then I fell on my double axel. Somehow I managed the spiral and the spread eagle, as well as the spin. Then I fell on my triple sow.

Frustrated with myself, I went into my triple toe, triple loop, and on the way down from the loop, I was off balance and landed on my side, my head hitting the ice.

I felt the pain shoot up my whole right side, especially my arm, my head, and my ribs.

I shut my eyes as tight as I could, hoping this was a dream and that when I opened them, I'd be back in bed at home.

I opened them and found that I was definitely awake.

The pain was so much too.

I heard the music cut and coaches came skating over to me.

In the background I heard the announcer saying something, but I couldn't make it out.

"Everdeen?" Kayla said worriedly when she got to me. At least I think it was Kayla...

I raised my head but felt a rush and had to put it back down on the ice.

"Kayla?" I asked breathlessly.

She nodded. "We're getting help. An ambulance is coming." She told me quickly.

I looked at her funny. "Why? For who?"

"You."

That's about when I blacked out.

Seth POV

I could tell something was wrong even when the lights first came on. Her smiled wasn't convincing to me, but to everyone else it probably looked normal.

My suspicions were confirmed when her routine continued having flaws and mess ups in it.

I knew this wasn't normal for her, and I could see the obvious frustration on her face. She's definitely not happy with her performance so far.

Next thing I know, she's fallen and she's not getting up.

The music cut, and the announcer spoke.

"We need everybody to please stay seated. It seems Everdeen in injured. Please calm down and do not scream while we get this taken care of."

I was running to the entrance of the ice before he even finished the word 'everybody'.

I ran as fast as I could and begged the lady to let me on the ice to see her.

Eventually, she caved and let me go, probably only because I looked so desperate.

By the time I got to her, I found that her eyes were closed. She's unconscious.

I started shaking slightly, and I focused on the sound of her heartbeat. The beat I could recognize from a mile away. It was never normal, it was always a little off, but that's how I knew it was her.

I was on my knees by her and the person next to me, probably her coach, and said, "How do we help her? Is an ambulance coming?"

She nodded. "Yeah. It'll be here in like five minutes or so. We need to get her off the ice now though."

A new and very deep voice came from behind me. "I can do it."

I turned around to see a man I'd never seen before. He was even taller than me, which was very strange, and he was muscular. His size reminded me of Sam.

I thought about what I was thinking, and immediately decided he was just really big.

"It's okay, I can do it." I told him and I went to pick Everdeen up.

He shook his head and took her from me. "Really, it's no problem."

I glared at him and then I realized his skin was the same temperature as mine.

No way. No way this guy is a shape shifter.

"How about we take her together." I suggested.

He cracked a smile, but nodded. "Alright."

We took her outside and when the ambulance came, we both got in as well as the person I assumed was her coach.

We drove off, lights flashing and sirens blaring, but I didn't care about that at all. My imprint was hurt, and there was nothing I could do to help her.

I reached my hand out and grabbed her hand very gently.

The man did the same at the exact same time as me.

"How do you know her?" I asked him.

"My sisters skate at the club with her." He told me.

I nodded.

"What about you?"

"I met her on the beach one day." I told him. "We've been friends ever since."

He nodded and when he looked down at her, he seemed to be thinking about something before he started shaking a little bit.

Oh my god. He really is a shape shifter like me. That's insane.

I put my hand on his shoulder. "Dude, we need to talk. I know." I told him.

He looked at me weirdly. "Know what?"

I looked back at Everdeen as the emergency vehicle turned into the hospital. "Tell you later. Everdeen is what matters right now."

He nodded. "I agree."

She was wheeled into the hospital and we followed until a nurse stopped us and told us that we couldn't go any further, but that we could visit her later.

We both started shaking a little bit before nodding and heading out to the waiting room.

"I know what you are. I know you're not human." I said.

His head snapped in my direction. "Then what am I?"

"Werewolf."

He laughed then realized I was serious. "How do you know?"

I shrugged. "Your size, you shake when you're angry. Oh, and your smell too."

His eyes narrowed. "You're one too aren't you?"

I nodded. "Yup. I think our packs need to meet each other. I'll tell Sam. You go tell your alpha." I told him.

He laughed a little bit. "I am the alpha."

I stared at him and nodded. "Alright then."

I walked out the doors and took my cell phone out. I quickly dialed Emily's house knowing that was probably where he'd be.

"Hello?" Emily's voice greeted me.

"Emily, I need to talk to Sam." I said seriously.

"I'll get him." She said before I heard muffled footsteps.

"Hello?" I heard Sam's voice greet me.

"Sam, there are more of us. There's a second pack here in Seattle." I rushed out.

"You've gotta be kidding right?" He asked.

"Nope."

He sighed. "Where are you? I'll come meet the alpha."

"I'm at the hospital in Seattle." I told him.

"What! Why?" He said worried.

I frowned. "My imprint got injured pretty bad at the ice show. She was brought here in an ambulance."

"I'm so sorry Seth. I'll be there as soon as I can." He told me.

"Alright, bye Sam."

"Bye."

The dial tone sounded and I hung my phone up and put it away.

I walked back into the hospital and to the waiting room.

The man was pacing.

"Hey, what's your name?" I asked him when I got closer.

"Damion." Was all he said. He seemed really worried about Everdeen. As worried as I was.

"I'm Seth." I said.

All he did was nod.

We both paced back and forth in silence until a nurse came in and said loudly, "Everdeen Willson's visitors."

Damion and I both ran to her and she brought us to her.

When I saw her, she was hooked up to a heart rate monitor, but the nurse told us it was just precaution.

Her right side was elevated. She had bruises forming all over her body.

I went over to her and gently took her left hand in mine.

"When will she wake up?" Damion asked from right behind me.

"It should be any minute." The nurse told us before walking out.

Damion took her right hand very carefully and we sat there for what seemed like hours, but was probably more like minutes until her eyes fluttered open.

"Everdeen." The two of us breathed in relief.

"Where- where's Kendra?" She asked, trying to sit up.

Damion and I both gently pushed her back down and we looked at each other questioningly, silently asking each other who Kendra was.

"Who's Kendra Everdeen?" Damion asked.

"My twin sister. Where is she..."

"I don't know. Do you want me to call her? Do you know her number?" I asked.

She tried to nod, but put her head down. "Yeah." She listed off the numbers and I called it.

"Hello?" A perky voice asked.

"Hello. It's Seth Clearwater calling about your sister Everdeen. She's in the hospital in Seattle. She had a couple of bad falls. I don't know exactly the extent of it, but it looks like she hurt her right side mostly. She hit her head too, and she blacked out for a while. She just woke up." I told her.

There was silence on the other side of the line for a while. "Oh my gosh..."

I waited.

"I'll be there as soon as I can." She told me.

"Alright, bye."

"Bye."

I hung up quickly and went back to Everdeen. "She's on her way." I told her.

She smiled. "Thank you."

I nodded. "No problem."

We sat there for a while, Damion and I each holding one of her hands.

Damion was the first to break the silence. "How are you feeling Everdeen?"

"I'm fine." She said, though I could tell she was lying.

"You're not a very good liar you know. Seriously, what hurts?" I asked her.

She sighed before finally replying. "My right arm, my head and the right side of my ribs."

I rubbed circles on the back of her hand. "I'm sorry Everdeen. You'll be okay though. I promise."

She grimaced. "Thanks Seth."

I nodded. "Anytime."

She looked over at Damion. "Where's Melody and Julia?" She asked him.

He shrugged. "They're still at the rink. Do you want me to text them and have them catch a ride up here?"

"Please. I want to make sure they know I'm okay, and knowing Melody, she won't rest until she knows it for sure and has seen me with her own eyes."

He cracked a smiled. "I think you're right. I'll text them in a bit."

"Can you text them now? I want to see them as soon as I can." She told him.

"Sure." He said and got his phone out and quickly texted someone named Julianne and a few minutes later, he got a reply.

"They're on their way." He told her.

"Alright. Thanks Damion." She said.

"Of course."

We sat in silence for a while before a nurse kicked us out.

We walked back to the waiting room and after just a couple minutes of waiting, I saw Sam walk in.

I walked over to him.

"That one?" He said looking straight at Damion.

I nodded. "Yup. Says he's the alpha of his pack."

He nodded. "Alright. How's your imprint?" He asked carefully.

"She's awake now. I have a feeling she got a concussion and broke a rib or two. Possibly her arm too."

Footsteps came up behind me.

"Excuse me, did I hear you right? Did you just ask how his imprint was?" Damion asked, shaking slightly.

Sam nodded. "Yeah. Why?"

Damion stared straight into his eyes. "Because I imprinted on Everdeen."

No way. This is so not happening.

Damion and I sat there glaring at each other, trembling with anger, willing the other one to admit that they were lying.

It looked like both of us were telling the truth.

"Damion, I think you and Seth should follow me." Sam said. "That way we can all talk in a better environment." He glanced at the employees staring at us.

We both agreed and headed into the forest behind the hospital.

Damion and I continued glaring at each other the entire time.

I hated him with every fiber of my being. Everdeen was destined to be mine. The imprint tie was unbreakable. I was in love with her the moment I saw her.

We finally stopped in the middle of the forest where no humans would see us.

"Damion, you're pack, what do they do?" Sam asked, probably referring to the vampire situation in La Push.

"What are you talking about?" He asked, still glaring at me, as I was still glaring at him.

"Well for us in La Push, the wolf genes set in when a vampire is in town. Our job is to kill those vampires to keep our tribe safe. What about you?"

He nodded. "Same here. I'm guessing imprints are the same for you as they are for us too." He gritted his teeth and I did as well.

We started shaking even harder.

"Guys, what would Everdeen say if she saw you fighting over her. Don't do something you're going to regret. An imprint effects both sides, the wolf, and the imprint. She's been affected by both, so if one of you gets hurt, she's going to be hurt to. Don't be stupid now. Think before you kill each other. I have a feeling if Everdeen saw you too right now she wouldn't be too happy. In fact, that's really what we should be worried about right now. She's hurt and in the hospital, and you two are fighting over her." Sam said, with a lot of logic.

He had a point but that didn't mean I liked it.

Slowly though, we calmed down somewhat. Now were were shaking only lightly.

"Now, I believe our versions of imprinting are the same as yours, which means that an imprint doesn't have to be romantic. The wolf will be whatever the imprint wants him to be, whether it's a lover, a friend, a best friend, or simply someone to talk to. Yes, I have a feeling one of you will end up with Everdeen as a lover, and the other will get her as a best friend. But I have a feeling, that she's going to feel bad either way, so do you want her to feel bad, or are you going to make things easy on her?" Sam asked us calmly.

I looked over at Damion and he looked at me.

I hated him, and I haven't talked to him much at all. Either way though, he thought he could take my imprint away from me. I didn't want to have to share my imprint. No one else in the pack had to.

Sam was right though. Everdeen would feel bad picking one of us if she knew both of us had feelings for her, but if one of us tells her we have feelings for her, then the other will tell her too so she knows her options. The only thing I could do now was hope I was better than Damion. I could only hope he chose me.

If she didn't, I would feel awful. If she didn't, I'd have to force myself to accept it though, because if I didn't, I would only cause her pain. I couldn't do that to her. Not my imprint.

I turned to Sam again. "Yeah. Yeah I am."

Damion nodded. "Me too."

"Good. Damion, later we'll have to set up boarders, and stretagize now that we know there are more of us, we can work more efficiently to kill more vampires." Sam told him.

Damion nodded. "Later." He said.

We all agreed and headed back to the hospital.

As soon as we got back, we just about sprinted to the desk to ask if we could see her.

"Um... I think that's alright. Wait here while I check with her and her doctor." She told us in her nasally voice.

Within two minutes she was back and brought us to her room. The nurse's footsteps were far too slow, and I couldn't help but wish she'd go faster.

After a long minute of walking, she knocked on the door.

"Come in." The most beautiful voice I'd ever hear in my life called through the doorway.

Damion and I practically ran over the nurse to get to her.

We assumed the usual position, with me holding her left hand and him holding her right.

I gave a small smile to the nurse at the door.

"Thanks." I said quickly before focusing all my attention on Everdeen again.

"How are you feeling?" Damion asked before I could.

"Fine." She answered just like she had answered before.

"Don't lie to us please. Really. How are you feeling?" I asked again.

She sighed. "Okay I guess. Pretty much the same as fifteen minutes ago when you guys were here." She laughed at little.

I heard footsteps racing down the hall and the door flew open.

Everdeen flinched at the sudden noise and movement before smiling at a girl, no more than six or seven years old.

Everdeen smiled brightly at the girl. "Melody!" She said excitedly.

The young girl, Melody I presumed, ran over. "Everdeen, Everdeen! I saw you're fall! It looked really bad, are you okay? Are you going to be able to skate the shows tomorrow?" She asked.

An older girl stepped into the room about now and I recognized her as one of the soloists Everdeen had mentioned. Julianne Christe. I knew from Everdeen that they were the same age.

"Mel, let her breathe alright?" She laughed. She turned to Everdeen. "Everdeen, I'm so sorry. I saw the fall as well and it looked like a pretty hard fall. Do you know the extent of the injuries yet?" She asked seriously.

Everdeen started to shake her head but stopped very soon, probably from pain. "No. The doctors said it'd be just a little bit longer." She frowned.

Everdeen turned to see Melody frowning and practically bouncing on her heels in anxiety. She laughed and swung her legs over to one side, and I very happily noticed it was my side before she smiled at Melody.

"Come sit up here with me Melody." She said.

Melody smiled and her sister Julianne helped her up onto the hospital bed to sit with her.

More footsteps came down the ha and opened the door to the room we were in.

This room is getting really crowded now.

This time it was a doctor that walked in. "Everdeen, we have your results of the tests we ran. Would you like us to tell you now, or do you want everyone else to leave the room first?"

Everdeen pressed her lips into a tight line. "Tell me now."

The doctor nodded and frowned. "Well, you fractured your ulna, broke one rib, and cracked another." He told her.

I could see the pain fill her eyes as he went on. "I'll still be able to skate though right?" She asked quickly, and she looked as though she was dreading the answer.

The doctor frowned. "Well you have to heal first, and that could take four to six months. Even after you heal, we wouldn't suggest it. The injury has quite possibly made you more prone to injuries." He told her sadly.

(AN: Yeah, I thought about ending the chapter here, but I'm not that evil. So this isn't the end of the chapter. You're welcome.)

Everdeen looked crushed. It pained me to see her this way. She shot upright and winced at the pain but ignored it. Damion and I both tried to get her to lie back down while she was in shock, talking really fast.

"No! There has to be something you can do! There's no way it was that bad of an injury, I mean, it was one fall. One jump." She blinked and I could see tears forming in her eyes. She began to speak much quieter as though talking more to herself than anything. "This can't be happening. Not now. Not after all the thousands hours I've spent on this goal. It just can't. I thought dreams came true. Where's my fairy tale happy ending?"

(AN: Yeah, I thought about ending the chapter here too, but I'm still not that evil. So this isn't the end of the chapter either. You're welcome again.)

"I'm sorry Everdeen, I know this is hard for you, but figure skating is a very dangerous sport. Everything can change in a second. Unfortunately it did." The doctor replied.

There was a long, awkward silence, the only sound was Everdeen's stifled sobs, and the sound of the doctor shifting his weight awkwardly.

"I'll go make the phone call to your coach." He muttered before walking out of the room.

As soon as the door was shut, everyone seemed to break out of their trance.

Damion put his hand that wasn't holding hers on her shoulder and was shaking very slightly.

Melody was looking from person to person, trying to put the pieces together.

Julianne sat down in the nearest chair with a look of utter disbelief written all over her face.

I kneeled down on the floor and put both my hands around one of hers, wishing there was something I could do to make her feel better.

Melody was the first to break the silence.

"Everdeen..?" She started quietly and unsure.

Everdeen swallowed and wiped her tears before looking up to her. "Yeah?"

"Everdeen... You aren't gonna leave me are you?" She asked quietly.

I could practically see the wheels turning in Everdeen's head until she finally answered. "I don't know Melody. I really don't know..."

Melody frowned even more before making her way to give Everdeen an awkward hug.

Everdeen let go of both Damion and I and pulled Melody onto her lap, hugged her tightly, and pressed her face into the top of Melody's hair.

I can't tell you how much I wish it was me that was comforting her right now.

Julianne stood up and rubbed Everdeen's back, as a sign that she was there for her. Everdeen looked up at Julia and gave her a tentative smile.

Then racing footsteps ran into the room, and the woman I'd decided was her coach earlier came rushing in.

"Everdeen!" She breathed.

Everdeen gave her a half smile. "Hey Kayla. I take it you heard the news..."

Kayla nodded and walked further into the room. "Yeah."

Everdeen frowned. "I think later we have some... Arrangements to work out." She said after taking extra time to swallow.

Kayla nodded and I racked my brain to figure out what they were talking about.

We sat there in silence for a while when it hit me.

Everdeen was living with her coach so that she could train in Seattle. If she was too injured to skate ever again, then there was no point in her living in La Push anymore.

My imprint was going to have to move away.

Four sets of footsteps came running down the hall.

Four girls turned the corner into the room.

"Everdeen!" They exclaimed as they all turned into the room and pushed their way past everyone and squeezed into the room.

Everdeen smiled sadly. "Hey guys."

"Oh my gosh Everdeen, what happened? What's hurt? Are you okay?" One of them said all at once.

Everdeen laughed. "Kendra, calm down. I fell on my triple triple combo. I broke a rib, cracked another rib, and fractured my ulna. I'm fine."

The girl, Kendra didn't seem to believe her, but didn't ask anymore questions.

"Everdeen, the doctors said you have to stay overnight, but that you can probably go home tomorrow afternoon. Do you want us to sleep at the hospital with you?" One of the other girls, with blonde hair and pale blue eyes asked her.

"No that's okay Rose. The beds here are really uncomfortable, go sleep back at Kayla's." She told them.

"Everdeen, if that's the only reason, then we're sleeping here. I'm sure we can manage a little bit of discomfort for you. You're our best friend." The girl with auburn hair and brown eyes told her seriously with her hands on her hips.

"Dylan! I'm serious. I promise I'll still be alive when you see me tomorrow. I swear." She said looking between the four of them.

Well she better be alive. No scratch that. She will be alive. I will be sure of it.

"Everdeen we're going to stay overnight, got that?" The one with dark sandy blonde hair and blue green eyes told her.

Everdeen groaned. "Holly! You guys don't have to do this."

"We want to though." The girl named Rose told her.

Everdeen rolled her eyes. "Fine. But when you guys wake up with aching backs, don't even think about complaining to me." She told them.

Dylan rolled her eyes. "Whatever."

A nurse walked into the room and I counted just how many people were here.

Let's see, the four girls named Holly Dylan Kendra and Rose, me, Damion, Julia, Melody, Everdeen, her coach Kayla, and now a nurse. That makes eleven.

Let me tell you, these rooms are not meant to hold eleven people.

The nurse took in all of us. "Um... Visiting hours are over. I'm sorry." She told us all.

I glanced down at Everdeen and frowned before people began to shuffle out of the room.

The four girls who'd come in last talked to the nurse about a place to stay for the night while I passed by.

It was hard leaving that room, but we had to do it. I'd see her tomorrow anyway. I'd make sure of it.

With one last glance at Everdeen, I walked out to the waiting room and left with Sam to go back to La Push.

Everdeen POV

As everyone filed out I felt just how exhausted I'd been lately.

I took a deep breath and closed my eyes before turning on my side and letting my mind wander before I fell asleep.

I couldn't believe that everything I'd worked for was shattered on just one jump combination.

Me, being the perfectionist I was, my reaction after thinking that was to do do it again until I could get it.

Then I realized exactly why I couldn't. I wasn't supposed to skate again.

I sighed. Skating was my life. My everything. Not being able to skate again, was like not breathing.

In that one second, everything was over. All of it. My hopes, my dreams, and everything. Gone in a split second.

It's over. It's all over now.

No. I'm going to skate again if it's the last thing I do.

Okay, I know how stupid it is for me to even think about skating again at this point, but I don't care. I'm going to do everything humanly possible to be able to live my dream.

I mean, who says that no one can concur the impossible?

It's not over. At least not yet.

Huge game changer right? Yeah. Everdeen is one of those people who puts their life on the line for what they love. Not many people do that. Some of you are probably thinking she's crazy, others probably think she simply loves what she does.

But wow, a lot happened in this chapter. A near fight between the wolves? Woah! So they finally know about the double imprint. Let's not forget the fact that because Everdeen got hurt, she isn't supposed to skate anymore. Which means she has to move back to Minnesota. If she doesn't, then how is Damion supposed to see her anymore? I mean, she lives in La Push, not Seattle. Can you say drama?

Well, review, let me know what you thought. Yell at me, praise me, whatever. I really don't care as long as I get some kind of feedback!

Oh yeah, how did you like Seth's POV? Was it good or no?
