Annaliese
The darkness around me was suffocating as I tried to regain control. I wanted so bad to let everyone know I was still here. I withered around trying to gain control of my brain and body but I was failing miserably. I wanted to give up. I wanted to let the darkness overwhelm me and take me away from where I was. Suddenly light flooded around me and the air came into my lungs easier and I didn't have to wither so much. Then I heard his desperately pained voice and the light got stronger. "I'm here for you…you're not alone anymore…" My body returned to my control and I slowly opened my eyes. My throat was dry but still usable as I let him know of my return from oblivion. "Jacob…" I saw his eyes full of tears and he crushed me to his body in a hug. "Anna!" I heard the 3 pairs of footsteps behind him and I could see Edward and Carlisle's golden locks with Bella's mahogany. I smiled weakly at my father and brother as Jacob released me. "Edward! Carlisle! Bella!" Edward had me in his arms the second Jacob's arms had left my skin and his granite like hands held me firmly. "I'm sorry Anna…so sorry…"
I kept myself close to Jacob for the next couple of days fearing if I left the warmth of his presence the darkness would overwhelm me again. Carlisle and Sam had agreed I was an excellent addition to both sides so I could flit to and from each side of the boundary line in the search for Victoria. Jacob would stay as close to me as possible even when I was on the other side of the boundary line even when I had Emmett or Edward by my side. Jacob worried that if Victoria caught me alone it wouldn't matter that I could rip her to shreds or that my skin was like granite just as long as I could bleed. He was terrified that I would get wounded and bleed to death before anyone could save me and I laughed at his concern. "Jake! Think about it really!" He turned his eyes on me and I could see the hurt in them as he remembered when he found me in the forest. "I am! She's got you once and I won't always be able to save you!" I smiled as I pressed my lips to his cheek with my hand on his chest balancing myself on my tiptoes. "I'm happy you're worried about me. I thank you for it. That's what I like about you Jake." I saw his cheeks flush and I smiled. He brought me close to his chest in a hug and placed his cheek on the top of my head. "I like you alive Anna. Please be more careful. For me?" I nodded and wrapped my arms around his waist, comforting him. I knew deep down he would be devastated if something did happen to me just as I would be devastated if something happened to him. We broke apart just as we heard Charlie's cruiser pull up and Bella's excited voice along with Charlie's and Billy's. "Anna! Jacob!" Bella pulled both of us into a hug and I smiled at Jacob just before she released us. Charlie followed Billy in and shook my hand. "Belles tells me you've been spending a lot of time out here Anna. Any reason?" I smiled and shook my head. "I got bored and Bella introduced me to Jake so I've been hanging out with him to pass the time really." I sensed Jacob's humor at my excuse for always being around and I elbowed him gently. He laughed and took mine and Bella's hands pulling us outside toward his garage. "We'll be back in time for dinner!" Billy nodded as I closed the door behind us and Jacob pulled me up beside him. I intertwined my fingers with his as he pulled us into the small garage. He grabbed a soda with his free hand and tossed it to Bella as she stared at our hands. Jacob opened the car door and Bella got in while I got on the roof as they had their own conversation. He smiled at me before his head too disappeared into the Rabbit.
I turned my extra sensitive senses on the world around me instead of on the two people in the car below me. I heard animals scurrying across the forest floor, birds calling out, and the vibrations of metal against metal. I quickly turned my attention back to the car beneath me and I noticed it was shaking. "Weeks Bella?!" Jacob heartbroken voice reached my ears and I closed my eyes suddenly knowing exactly where their conversation had gone. I heard the car doors open and Jacob roughly pulled me off the top of the car dragging me away. "Did you know?" I blinked a couple of times and he glared at me. "Know what?" He growled at me before answering. "About Bella's changing! Did you know about it Anna?" I nodded weakly and he released my arm. "You knew?" I could hear the hurt in his voice as he backed away slowly. "I didn't know it had been finalized Jake! It was just an idea Bella threw out there! I didn't know they had agreed on it…" I froze realizing they had made this decision without my feedback and I held my head down as I felt the tears fill my eyes. Jacob was quivering in rage in front of me but that barely registered past the realization that I wasn't truly a part of the Cullen clan merely a visitor. I backed away from Jacob and Bella in the car and ran out the door. I raced past Charlie's cruiser and past the boundary line as I arrived in the front room of the Cullen home. Jasper looked up at me with wide eyes as he felt my emotions and his face crumpled up with my pain. Edward was at my side in a second but I pushed him away from me into the staircase, watching him crash to the floor. "How could you?!" Carlisle entered the room from my side along with Rosalie and I turned my fury onto them. "Why don't you just tell me the truth Carlisle?!" Jasper and Edward both pounced on me to keep me from attacking anyone but I threw them off and they all stared at me with wide eyes. I was quivering and I could barely keep my rage contained as Rosalie bared her fangs at me with a feral snarl. I let out a howl of rage and I was suddenly held back by Emmett and Jacob. I struggled against their grasp and Edward stared at me like it pained him to see me like this. Ha, I bet it did. "Hold up there girly. Chill your jets…" Emmett's voice was at my ear trying to calm me down but it was just making me angrier. "Anna stop it! Stop acting like a child!" Jacob's voice was in my other ear and I froze. A child? Did he think I was a child? I smirked before throwing them both into Jasper and Edward. I bared my own fangs in a ferocious snarl and I could hear Esme and Alice on their way to help their family. THEIR family. I swung around quickly catching both of them off guard sending them crashing into Carlisle and Rosalie. Suddenly I grew rigid as I heard her. Victoria had followed them. I bounded out the door changing on the porch as they followed me, Jacob with them. She was there. Her red hair billowing in the wind as her ruby eyes narrowed on my form.
Jacob
Annaliese raced out of the garage after I yelled at her for something she couldn't control. I dropped Bella off back in the house before chasing after Anna. She went over the boundary and I stared after her figure longingly. I begged her to turn around. I prayed she'd turn around. She didn't. I suddenly felt Edward's presence in my mind and his voice soon filled my head. "Anna's gone crazy! Come quickly!" I was racing toward the Cullen house before he even finished his message and I arrived just as the big one did. When I got into the house Anna had attacked her whole family. I grabbed her before she could pounce again and her brother grabbed her other side. She struggled and we had trouble holding onto her which seemed to surprise her brother more than me. He tried calming her down but she merely struggled harder. They all looked at me and I got angry. "Anna stop it! Stop acting like a child!" She was like a small child throwing a tantrum. Only she was bigger stronger and smarter. I suddenly felt my feet leave the ground as I slammed into Edward. She snarled at us, her raven curls flailing around her porcelain face. Even in anger she was perfectly sculpted.
She then proceeded to throw her sister and mother into the doctor and her other sister and growl at us some more. She suddenly grew rigid before turning and running out onto the porch changing into her wolf form, her fur bristled in anger at our visitor. Victoria stared in contempt at Anna's angered form as the wind whipped her flaming hair around her face. I grew rigid as she slammed her body into Annaliese sending them flying into the Jeep the big one had pulled up in. The metal crunched beneath them I heard Anna's yelp of pain and her blood poured onto the ground underneath the Jeep.
