LEAH P.O.V
It's hard to breath.
The world seems to be spinning.
I need to get fresh air, Even though I am outside. I just need to get away.
Paul is breathing down everyone's neck about not leaving me alone, ever. Seth is holding my mom telling her that it's all going to be ok and that he won't let me out of his sight.
But even as they all promising to never let me go anywhere by myself, I still somehow end up in the forest behind our house, by myself.
The only reason I don't think the vamps have followed me is because too much is going on around them, and Edward is bomb-barded with everyone's thoughts.
I sit on a log off to the side, somewhere near the stream.
My eyes are closed but suddenly I have an urge to shiver, and the hair on the back of my neck stood on end. I don't want to open my eyes but I know I have too.
"Ah, you are growing so beautiful with pregnancy!" The vampire standing before me speaks. He is surrounded by several others, but I know there are more in the woods.
"Wow Jason, you did pick a beauty to bear your child, if only she wouldn't have to die after birth." Says a shapely woman, she seems a little sad. I assume she is his sister because they have the same cheek bones and face shapes.
Being pregnant by a wolf has its good sides. For instance I can hear three times better than I could before being pregnant. I still can't phase, but I can see and hear so much better, plus my skin has become harder, more capable of surviving attacks. Maybe that's why when they started moving forward towards me I didn't panic, I could hear a wolf coming. But not just any wolf I heard Jacob coming. Don't ask how I know it was Jacob but it was.
I heard him before the vampires did. In seconds he was in front of me snarling and howling and pacing.
"Leah, why do you have your puppy here to save you? You know we can just kill him too?" Jason said. He was smiling like he knew he could. The vampires behind him laughed with him. Jacob snorted like 'Bitch please'.
In the back of my mind I wondered why didn't Jacob attack but being a Beta I knew he needed to wait until the pack came.
With-in 15 seconds both packs where there, surrounding me. The Cullen's, the ones that were at the house, made a tight circle around me just in case. I think I've only seen Esme this mad when the Volturi came after Nessie.
Paul was stomping around growling and shaking, almost as if he were going to shift into a bigger wolf or maybe even a different animal! I would be so scared if I had to face him.
"Well I see we are not welcomed here," Jason says with a smile on his face. Out of nowhere 30 other vampires appeared from the trees." No, no, we will not attack today, she isn't ready to have birth," Jason speaks to the others. Then he turns and faces me. "But when that time comes, trust me baby I will be here to take that child of OURS and create a perfect world."
I'm crying, Seth is going crazy wanting to attack but I know he has the alpha order on him, same as Paul. I would think he would he attacked by now but apparently Sam laid down the law powerfully because he is on the ground by me and when he tries to get up he cries out.
"You may want to disappear before the rest come." Edward says to them in an eerie scary tone. I never pictured Eddie to be mean. But now I'm scared, for everyone. For my baby, for my family, For their family. I'm just scared... and then I see nothing
PAUL P.O.V
I see Leah falling but I can't move. Not because I'm scared, or because I'm too mad, but because fucking Sam has that damn alpha control over me!
But thankfully Jacob caught her before she fell. He was the only one who had shifted to human form when she fell. Edward and the rest were watching the other leeches. But as she fell everyone's attention went to Leah for just a second, and when we looked back, those damn things were gone.
"Come on guys, we need to get Leah somewhere safe." Carlisle says to us all. I guess he could tell that all of us wanted to run after them and kill them off.
We all just stand there for a minute looking in the direction the creeps took off but we still see no sign of them. But then we hear a rustling in the trees behind us.
Me, Jacob, Seth and Sam all phased at the sound. All of the Cullen's snarled their teeth and had a protective crouch around Leah. Sue comes running out of the trees like a mad woman. She sees us all in attack position and tries to stop herself before she runs into us. Unfortunately she was running her fastest and tried to stop too soon and ended up sliding all over the forest floor like it was a baseball field.
Awe hell mom we could have killed you! I almost pounced on you and had you for dinner! I thought I told you to stay at home? It's too dangerous out here to be... that's all Seth kept thinking about.
"Yourrrrrrrrr OUT!" Quil screamed just to make everyone around us loosen up a little bit. Everyone joined in laughter. The wolves even snorted a little bit. Then we heard Leah's heart beat falter a little bit and it was all back to business.
SUE P.O.V
I don't really know what made me jump up out of my chair when we noticed Leah wasn't around anymore. Well I do know why I jumped up. I'm her mother for crying out loud! I was scared for her. I knew the things that are out looking for her could ruin my daughter's chances at a happy life. Now what I don't know is why I went running after all the guys when they all phased and ran towards her. I could honestly say after the first three seconds, I didn't see any wolves anymore and I got truly scared for a moment until I remembered this isn't about me, it's about my baby girl. My only girl.
Now how I found the place out in the middle of the woods after I lost sight of the wolves, I can't tell you. I kind of think it was the mother instinct telling me where my baby was. I was just jogging at first but after 2 minutes I could see all the wolves and I could make out some of the Cullen's that's when I pushed myself and ran my hardest. I saw them all tense up at the sound of me, but I thought they knew it was me. I thought that maybe there was something after me, chasing me. Even in my fastest running, I couldn't beat whatever super-natural thing that could have been chasing me. I still figured I'd run my hardest. Only when I was 100 feet before them did I realize it was me they were looking at. I saw Seth's wolf face start to change to one of misery like he knew it was too late for me to be saved from the Cullen's standing in attack mode and the wolves. But I tried my damn-est to stop running but instead I started skidding on the leaves that were covering the forest floor.
"Yourrrrrrrrr OUT!" Quil screamed. It confused me for a moment but then everyone started laughing and I joined in. Seth still looked upset even in his wolf form.
Esme walked over laughing and helped pick me up and dust me off. Then everything got tense and everyone was looking at Leah's body. I swear I am jealous of their hearing at times.
I ran over to Leah but Edward stops me and tells me she's okay, but they need to move her to a comfortable place soon. Carlisle picks up my Leah and starts to run with her... or fly I really don't know because he was such a blur. Then the big vampire that's always playing games with Seth comes over smiling kind of creepy at me. I don't get scared, but I'm just a little nervous.
"Emmett! I swear if you do anything to try and scare Sue I will have your head. Do you understand? Remember she is human and she is still fragile." Esme scolds Emmett but then runs off after Carlisle and most of the wolves. Then his icy hands are on me and when I look up I'm on his back.
"Hold on Mrs. Clearwater I'm just taking you home faster than you can." He tells me with a devilish grin placed on his perfectly sculpted face. All I see is colors passing me by and before I can focus my eyes we're at my home and everyone is standing outside except Carlisle and Edward.
I try to walk in but Paul stops me and tells me they don't want anyone in there at the moment and that they will call us in when she is stable.
Two shiny new cars park outside of my house. I know they are the other Cullen's that where out of town. There is so much dust flying up in the air from how fast they drove in here and how quickly they stopped that I couldn't even tell what color the cars where. When the dust settled Rose, Nessie, Alice, and Jasper where already over by us and already had the story.
Before I could even sit down to take a rest from my adventurer my loving and over protective son pulled my arm and lead me away from the others. Is it weird that I feel like I'm in trouble with my son?
