Chapter 2

I opened my eyes. All I could see was brightness. Was this heaven? I sat up, still blinded by the light and tried to focus. As my eyes started adjusting to the light, I noticed that heaven looked a lot like mine and Ed..his meadow. Hmm...how odd. I stood up to study my surroundings a bit more. While observing the meadow, I was shocked to find my vision had become much, much clearer. Almost like going from a normal t.v. to high definition, but that was no comparison to this. I could see every crevice, every follicle of the scenery around me. So much detail... Who knew a tree could hold so much beauty? My sense of smell was much better too. I could smell everything, the trees, water from a stream nearby, a deer passing by, blood...wait blood! Why would there be blood in heaven?! There wouldn't be...I must still be alive...could I be dying? I looked myself once over, everything seemed fine. Where would that smell come from then?

I turned back to where I had originally been lying down. I gasped, there was blood everywhere, and not just where I had been. There was blood about five feet away from me, making a small path into the forest. Suddenly I remembered, there had been the sound of a fight right before I blacked out. Who came to save me? Were they okay? What did Victoria do to them? Panicking I followed the blood. I didn't really want to see what would be at the end of the trail, but I had to know. No one would be hurt at my expense if I had anything to do about it.

Then I caught it, a whiff of the most disgusting smell imaginable. It was awful, a mixture of sweat, blood, and wet dog. What on Earth could produce this bile? So distracted by the scents around me, I didn't even notice that I was being followed. I continued following the scent for about a mile when I lost it. It just stopped. "Dammit!" I yelled. Frustrated I plopped down onto a nearby rock and pouted. Where did the mystery smell go? A twig snapping alerted me to full attention. I looked up to see four gigantic wolves staring at me with confusion. "Oh!" I said suprised. I recognized them immediately, as Sam, Quil, Embry and Paul. I stood up. They all shifted on step back and hesitated. "Hey guys! What are yo.." Suddenly out of nowhere, I heard voices shouting in my head.

"I don't know about this Sam. She's one of them now. We can't trust her."

"Shut up! She's our friend."

"I wonder if she has even noticed?"

"Poor Jacob.."

The voices kept coming at me, one after another, getting louder and louder by the second. It felt as if my head would explode. What was happening? I must really be loosing it this time. I fell to the ground clutching my head in pain. All I wanted was for the voices to stop. It seemed as if that was all I had ever wanted, all that I would ever want.

"Whats wrong with her? Should we help?"

"I think she's gonna be sick."

"Maybe we should leave. This doesn't feel right"

I started to rock back and forth. Get out of my head! Why wont they go away?! I focused all my attention to make the voices leave. It was becoming unbearable, I didn't know how much more I could take. I focused harder. And then...nothing..no voices. All was quiet. The voices left just as fast as they came. What was that?

I looked up to the perplexed werewolves. They were just as confused as I was. I paused thinking back to the voices.."Poor Jacob.." Poor Jacob? I looked directly to the wolf I knew was Sam. "Where is Jake?" I asked. He looked down, even as a wolf I could read that expression. "Sam, what happened?" Not asking anymore, but demanding. My emotions started getting the better of me, the voices suddenly returned.

"He had to save you."

"You were just laying there, while that..that..bloodsucker attacked!"

I clutched my head again, trying to get a grip on the shouting. It came more easily this time, I could distinguish each voice. The voices also became softer, more bearable. And then they stopped. So again I asked. "Sam. Tell me what happened." He looked directly into my eyes, not wanting to share the truth. He ran away, and was back as his human form in a second. He walked up to me and told me the story.

Jacob knew I would come here today, he came looking for me when it had gotten late. When he found me, Victoria was on me. He lunged at her. She was too quick for him, and got away from his grasp. Jacob had wounded Victoria, but she was too strong, and he was too confident. Victoria tore Jacob to shreds. Enjoying it a little too much, she didn't notice the four wolves coming out of the forest. Sam and the others finished her off, but they hadn't been in time. He said they hadn't been in time to save Jacob or me. Tears filled my eyes listening to his story. I almost didn't catch the last part. "Me?" I asked sobbing. "But I'm fine!" They looked at me confused, but I didn't care. Poor Jacob! He gave his life for mine, I didn't deserve that. I had been so willing to let go, and fall into the darkness. And Jacob had been so brave, stupidly brave! I sobbed some more.

"Bella?" Sam said, ignoring the state I was in. "Have you noticed anything different about yourself? Haven't you wondered why you're still alive, with not so much as a scratch?" This hadn't occured to me. Anyway why was Sam asking about me, it was Jacob he should be grieving over. Filled with rage, I shouted. "Why are you asking about me?! Your friend is dead!! Don't you even care!?" He looked offended by my ranting. "Of course I care.." He said calmly. "I loved Jacob. But there are bigger problems that I must attend to first." He stated matter of factly. This annoyed me. Bigger problems? What could be worse? The only thing those La Push boys cared about was their family. Protecting their family and those around them was their first priority. And they only had to protect them from one thing, vampires.

Then it hit me like a ton of bricks. Vampires. There must be more vampires in the area. Maybe they had come back. Or maybe there were dangerous vampires on the loose. I was suddenly overwhelmed with excitement and horror. Should I even be excited to see the Cullens? If it's not the Cullens, should I be worried? Charlie and the rest of the La Push boys would be in danger. My thoughts were flying, I had to know. "Sam" I asked. "Are there vampires nearby?" Patiently I waited for his answer. He nodded. Too eager to have my questions answered, I almost shouted at him the words. "Are the Cullens back?" He looked taken aback by my last question. "No, Bella. Don't you understand yet?" I shuddered, if the Cullens weren't back then it must be my second conclusion. Frustrated I asked "Well who is it then? Who are we protecting your family from?" He looked at me pityingly. Anger started to rise in me. Why couldn't he just give me a straight answer? "Tell me Sam!" He sighed. "We are protecting our family from you, Bella."

hehe hoped you liked it! Bella's powers are going to be really really good. Hopefully I can have the third chapter out by tomorrow.
