Genna seemed to lose her footing and fall of the railing – backwards.
Everyone was frozen by the word.
Run.
Normally, I wouldn't, but the way she looked…the Cullen's must have scared her to death.
A scream moved everyone from their transfixed spots. I ran up to the railing.
Genna was crawling backwards, screaming as though something had hurt her.
"Genna?" I asked.
She stopped moving and looked at her shoes.
Maybe she wasn't that scared…
Her head slowly came up, her face twisted with pain and confusion.
"Genna? It's okay there's nothing wrong with the-" Genna turned her head behind her and screamed.
There must be something there.
I jumped over the railing – along with a few others.
She shuddered and I stuck my arm out to stop anyone advancing on her.
A phasing were-wolf could be scared crapless if you sneak up on them. We all knew how dangerous that was.
Genna stood in front of everyone. Her white fur was beautiful. I heard a few members of Jake's pack gasp.
"You imprinted on a-a…that Alpha was a female?!" Quil asked, stunned.
I was going to answer, but Gennas legs collapsed from underneath her.
Blood pooled from her mouth. She was in an weird position – on her side and her head was laying on the ground like she was listening for something.
Except she was facing me.
Except she wasn't looking at me.
At anyone.
"Genna!" I ran up to her, uncertain what to do.
That Doctor vampire, what ever his name was I forgot, used his inhuman speed to run next to her.
Giant silver spikes shot from Genna's back. They looked like those spike you see dinosaurs have…it was unwire-wolf like.
I turned to the Doctor vampire, somehow feeling this was his fault.
I snarled and advanced on him, all my hormones running wide. Protect imprintee.
Genna snarled, as if she could see what I was going to do. What I had only taken two steps for.
The Doctor bent down and touched her forehead.
Genna yelped and I bent down swiftly and shoved his hand off.
Everyone had gathered around her by now – awed and scared looks on their faces. We didn't know what's wrong with her and what was happening.
Genna's chest fell in suddenly and I stared at it, listening.
She gasped for air.
"She can't breath!" I jumped to my feet and heard her get air in below it was lost from her lungs again.
I have to help…
"Can't we do something?!" I asked.
The doctor looked up at me, a grim expression on his face.
"I don't know what's wrong with her, and until I do I cannot do anything. If I make an assumption, we could do something wrong and she could die."
He seemed to pause for a breath. "At the moment all I know is she doesn't seem to be able to hear us, she's in pain, she can't breath, she's burning hot and –" he hesitated, "- she's just grown spikes from something like a extended spine being made in her back. Her bones marrow are turning to blood and coming out her mouth and all that empty space is being turned into bone. If you've noticed, everything made of…something that I'll explain to you later…things like hair, her nose, ears and nails are becoming bone."
The doctor looked at me as if begging me to understand.
"how do you know?" I asked suspiciously.
"I can hear it – and I'm sure everyone else can to if you listen to her bones – you can hear them re-braking, growing and so forth."
I listened like he said.
And he was right.
If you listen closely, you could hear the crackling noise of her bones snapping in her spine, her- I stopped listening, disgusted and scared.
But even when I wasn't listening, I could hear her heart.
Tha-dumpt.
Tha-dumpt.
Genna's face twisted like she had seen a ghost.
Kill me! She howled. It felt like I'd been slapped and wounded.
"What did she say-" Bella stared before Genna begged in a whine, I want to die – kill me! Kill me, please!
I slipped to my knees.
She wanted to die…she was in that much pain.
I felt tears pour down my eyes.
"It's okay." I crooned.
I wrapped my arms around her.
Genna yelped at the same time I said, "She's freezing cold!"
The Doctor vampire probed around her neck. "This is bad." He said, looking worried.
"I don't think that's possible." Edward said.
"We'll have to ask later." The Doctor said.
Tha-dumpt.
Her heart sounded like it was slowing down.
"This is all my fault." Rensemee sobbed, "if I had have had my birthday party somewhere else-" she was cut of by Genna chocking violently.
"Can't we get her to breath or something." I asked desperately.
The Doctor sighed, "If it's what Edward and I think it is, then you can't do that at all. This should be what we think it is though – this is defiantly nothing I've ever seen."
Tha-dumpt.
Genna's head moved up slowly followed by her front legs. She was shaking faster than two kangaroo's in a mating season.
I need to…live. Stay…up. She panted.
Blood dripped down her mouth and she was covered in sweat. She was by far, the biggest Alpha of the two standing here, every when Jake was a wolf. And Jake was taller than Sam.
Musn't…give in…to…pain! She winced on the last word 'pain' as she got onto her four legs.
She started panting heavily.
Tha-dum- her heart stopped.
Mine stopped too, but only for a second.
She blinked slowly, as if stunned, then seemed to look happy as she fell to the right.
She's dead!
The sweat and blood vanished as if her fur had soaked them up. Her mouth was open and she started to breathe again, slowly.
Her heart didn't start again though.
She looked every more perfect than before…if that was possible. I felt at awe to Genna.
I felt like I wanted to join her pack…
"She's not dead." Edward bent down over Genna's…body – what ever she was now – with his adoptive father.
"If, she's what we think she is, which has been confirmed."
There was a sound that sounded like when someone pulled their sword out in the movies.
Genna's spikes were inches from her body – covered by her white fur. If you didn't know they were there, you'd never guess she had spikes.
"Which is?" I asked. I walked up to my imprinter/imprentee's body and felt drawn.
"We think…" The doctor mused.
"We think she's a hybrid of a kind."
I don't understand.
Edward sighed.
"We think she's… half were-wolf half vampire."
