Summary: What if the Twilight Saga was re-written with Jacob as the Protagonist? What if instead of Bella being the new girl in Forks High it was Jacob? What would happen when the wolf warrior and the cold one parts crossed and their destiny was already written? Would the two of them be able to co-exist in peace? Or will they be torn apart.
Pairings: Jacob/Edward
Disclaimer: So I just got to thinking what if instead of the whole Twilight Saga being surrounded around Bella and Edward it was Jacob and Edward. To me it would be so much more drama. Vampire/Werewolf much more interesting that Vampire/Human. I take no credit for this work. It's all Stephenie Meyer ... I just decided to twist it. I own nothing.
Notes: This story was started on a profile Slash is the Way by my friend and it got nowhere. He said he was never going to finish and gave up on it completely it so he gave it to me. So I'm re-writing it and hopefully I will finish it. However, I am respecting his wishes to keep the plot as close to the book as possible. If it was me I would change it but a friend's a friend. So, there will be a lot of differences but as requested it will stick as close to the original Twilight plot as possible.
If I had to wait on my Beta this story would never get published so all errors are mine.
I hope it doesn't suck.
Thank you to all those who commented for me to update. It inspired me to actually find time to write this chapter (Blame work and school). Although it's not really what I want it to be I don't want to lapse any longer than I have (Again).
Chapter XIII
The Storm
I drifted.
Then I screamed. All the pain I could feel before was attacking me now but it was so much more that I would have ever imagined. I tried to hold it back but my screams had a mind of it's own. Everything down to my bones hurt. Now that was a pain I was accustomed to. The pain of the shift but it was different somehow. I was dying.
Then a noise brought me out of my own head. It was another snarl; a deeper, wilder roar that rang with fury. I was brought back, almost to the surface, by a sharp pain slashing my upraised hand, but I couldn't find my way back far enough to open my eyes.
"Oh no, Jacob, no!"
That was Edward. I wasn't freaking surprised. I tried to say something. Anything. But all I did was scream.
"Jacob, please! Jacob, listen to me, please, please, Jake, please!" he begged.
Yes, I wanted to say. Anything. But I couldn't find my lips.
"Carlisle!" Edward called, agony in his perfect voice. "Jacob, Jake, no, oh please, no, no!" And he was sobbing tearless. Honest to God broken sobs. I wanted to make it stop. I was too busy screaming.
There was a point of pressure against my head. It hurt. Then, as that pain broke through the darkness to me, other pains came, stronger pains. I cried out, gasping, breaking through the dark pool.
"Jacob!" the angel cried.
"He's lost some blood, but the head wound isn't deep," a calm voice informed me confused. "It should be deep. His leg is broken but the bones are mending. His ribs too. He's healing."
""Isn't that a good thing?" A voice - Emmett - asked.
My scream was the reply. Something was burning me. Everything was burning me
"Edward." I tried to tell him, but my voice was so heavy and slow. I couldn't understand myself.
"Jacob, you're going to be fine. Can you hear me, Jacob? I love you."
"Edward," I tried again. My voice was a little clearer.
"Yes, I'm here."
"It hurts," I whimpered.
"I know, Jacob, I know" - and then, away from me, anguished - "can't you do anything? Why is he healing? Why isn't that good"
"Jacob shifted." Carlisle said tersely. "I called Billy. I thought it was be best to have a much information as possible. He was more helpful that I expected."
"He looks human still" That was Rosalie
"That's the pain." Carlisle answered "My bag, please Alice."
"Alice?" I groaned.
"She's here. We're all here"
"It hurts," I tried to tell him.
"I know, Jacob. Carlisle will give you something, it will stop."
"My hand is burning!" I screamed, finally breaking through the last of the darkness, my eyes fluttering open.
"Carlisle! His hand!"
"He bit him." Carlisle's voice was no longer calm, it was appalled.
"He's turning." Emmett asked
"No he's dying. Venom is poison to shifters. He won't survive this."
I heard Edward catch his breath in horror. "No Carlisle. Jacob can't die. No!" he bellowed.
"There must be something we could do," I didn't recognize the voice but my pain was gone so it must have been Jasper.
"There may be a chance," Carlisle said.
"What?" Edward begged.
"See if you can suck the venom back out. The wound is fairly clean." As Carlisle spoke, I could feel more pressure on my head, something poking and pulling at my scalp. The pain of it was lost in the pain of the fire.
"Will that work?" Alice's voice was strained.
"I don't know," Carlisle said. "But we have to hurry and you need to be careful. If any of your venom gets into his system you'll just kill him quicker. You need to control your urges"
"Carlisle, I..." Edward hesitated. "I don't know if I can do that." There was agony in his beautiful voice again.
"It's your decision, Edward, either way. I can't help you. I need to set his bones properly." Carlisle was bent over me, working on my head. "Edward, you must do it now, or it will be too late. Jasper can keep away his pain but we can't keep him alive."
Edward's face was drawn. I watched his eyes as the doubt was suddenly replaced with a blazing determination. His jaw tightened. I felt his cool, strong fingers on my burning hand, locking it in place. Then his head bent over it, and his cold lips pressed against my skin.
Slowly, my hand grew more and more numb. I couldn't tell if what he was doing was working or if it was Jasper's hold on me
I felt my consciousness slipping as the pain subsided. I was afraid to fall into the black waters again, afraid I would lose him in the darkness.
"Edward," I tried to say, but I couldn't hear my voice. They could hear me.
"He's right here, Jacob."
"Stay."
"I will." His voice was strained, but somehow triumphant.
I sighed contentedly.
"Is it all out?" Carlisle asked from somewhere far away.
"His blood tastes clean," Edward said quietly.
"Jacob?" Carlisle called to me.
I tried to answer. "Mmmmm?"
"How do you feel?"
"Numb," I sighed. "Is that good?"
Carlisle chuckled in relief
"I love you," Edward answered.
"I know," I breathed, so tired.
I heard my favorite sound in the world: Edward's quiet laugh, weak with relief.
I frowned. "Leah and Seth?"
"Safe. Jasper's with them."
"I thought Jasper was here," I said confused.
"He was. But he's gone."
Then I remembered.
"Alice." I tried to open my eyes. "Alice, the video - he knew you, Alice, he knew where you came from." I meant to speak urgently, but my voice was feeble. "Why do I smell gasoline?" I added, surprised through the haze in my brain.
"It's time to move him," Carlisle said.
"No, I want to sleep," I complained.
"You can sleep, sweetheart, I'll carry you," Edward soothed me.
And I was in his arms, cradled against his chest as though I weighed nothing.
"We will never speak of this again." I mumbled to comfortable to protest him carrying me. His laugh was the only indication that he heard me
"Sleep now, Jacob" were the last words I heard.
Notes: Chapter 13 everyone. It's not as good as I would like it to be (it never is) and it's short but I didn't want to take any longer than I already did to update and if I really waited until I found it was perfect who knows how long it would take. And I gave you two chapters in one night so ...
Jacob shifted?
As I said before, and I will continue to say I'm trying to keep it as close as the book as possible but yet different. Jacob isn't Bella. He isn't as shy or reserved or as dumb. He's also a werewolf, which he now knows - though he hasn't shifted yet. Poor boy doesn't even know the legends. Well he knows part.
Chapter 14 is on it's way. I have learnt not to make promises about time frame but know that I will finish this story. It's coming to the end. But worry not. There will be squeal(s)
Thanks a lot to all of you who are reading and those of you who favored and followed this story. Love to all my wonderful reviewers and those who are patiently waiting for updates. ANd those who've stuck with me since the beginning. I hope it doesn't suck.
I was aiming to update weekly but obviously that hasn't been happening and I apologize for that. So as soon as possible chapter 13 will be up.
Also if anyone has an idea they would like to see in this story that was not in the plot of the original Twilight feel free to leave a comment or message. :)
