Hey guys and gals.

No reviews yet thus far but I did get a few more people reading my other stories because of this.

Have fun.

Run With The Wolves

Marie's POV

I lay back on my bed and looked towards the white ceiling. I closed my eyes for about the seventieth time today, in an attempt to do something that is impossible for a vampire.

I was trying to sleep.

Sleep is the one thing that I miss the most from my human life. The ability to dream or even have a nightmare was something that a lot of humans don't realise as the best part of their life. Anyway, I was lying there with my eyes closed and I heard the chirping of birds and the rustling of bushes with the wind. If I was a human now, I would hear my heartbeat, which I don't, and frankly, I'm glad of it.

I grunt and I sit up, opening my eyes and looking around to see the white room. I designed this room my self. Every part of this room is white and light came from the walls, the ceiling and some parts of the floor. There were no shadows to hide in. The only piece of furniture is the flat bed, which was along the floor like a camping rug. The white room can be used for two different purposes. The first is what I use it for, a place with no distraction and a place of pure thought that lets me channel the energy and powers I have gained over my two hundred and seventeen years of existence. The second, I use rarely, I have only ever used this room once for the second purpose.

It can also be used as an interrogation or torture chamber. The blankness of the room would distract any human and prevent them from thinking, eventually going insane. The human I used it on came out shaking. Anthony didn't talk to me for a few months afterwards, because the man I used was a test dummy. A person to try if the room worked and it did. The human came out shaking alright, but he came out not knowing how to speak, eat or even register what was going on. Everything in his mind had been wiped. The man was only in the white room for at least two weeks. I shuddered at remembering how I gave the body to a passer by vampire. You may think 'Well, wait, Anthony has never been in this house before', yes, that's true.

It was because I was here alone. I built this house on my own, I designed every little detail. It is all designed for either easy access or easy escape and normal comfort. It's isolate, so we can act normal, if you can call us normal. When I returned to Glasgow at the time, Anthony found out and gave me no communication for a long time. It was by far, the worst time of my vampire life.

I walked to the door, which is impossible to see unless you have enhanced eyes. I push a small button and the door popped back. I walked through and spanned my listening range as wide as I could. Anthony was reading the paper and Charlie was on the laptop I bought yesterday, finding out the local history. I told the boys that I sensed something was being hidden from us and possibly the Cullen's. I didn't mention my encounter with Renesme.

I walked up from the basement and looked around to find where they were. Anthony was in the kitchen, sitting on a stool. Charlie had his back to me and I smiled. He was actually taking my fashion advice. Today he ditched the hoodie and baggy trousers and was wearing a dark leather jacket with normal jeans and he hasn't gelled his hair, making it dark and slightly styled in a nice way. Now that's a perfect Italian. I walked to the top of the stairs and dashed past Anthony and Charlie and out of the front door. I ran hard into the forest, passing many large trees that I haven't seen since I was younger. I ran around into open spaces, hoping to see Renesme and get more answers but I was left alone.

Until a large heartbeat came from my right. I breathed in a smelled a bear. I crept closer and closer until it was in my sights. A large dark grizzly bear was eating some berries. It really was a shame to kill such lovely wildlife, but I needed to survive. I tensed down and leapt hard onto the bear. It didn't even look up to its killer. It fell to its side and started to breath quickly. I saw that it was a female. I then heard two smaller heartbeats run closer and looked to my right to see two small cubs. The bear was a mother, and she was foraging for her young. I kill animals, but I don't kill animals that need to care for young. Fathers I can kill, but mothers are a no go.

I sighed and jumped to the other side of the bear and pushed her up. I channelled energy into her, making whatever was damaged heal quickly and also giving her enough energy to go on foraging for the cubs. She stood on her own and shook her fur, then ran to her cubs and walked away. I turned and ran in the opposite direction then stopped when I came to a weird scent.

I smelled blood, and an even stronger smell. I also heard a very heavy heartbeat nearby. I ran toward the blood and found a dead deer that had a broken neck, it was fresh and no blood was drained, although some was spilled. A small note was left on the deer.

I gave Carlisle the message

Renesme had hunted for me, and gave me a welcome gift it seems. The writing on her note was extremely neat like she'd been writing for years. But how old is she? Seven? Eight? She can't be that important a thing, yet she is a half breed. I wonder what life is like for her.

I bent down and flipped the dear over and bit its neck. I started draining the blood quickly and kept my eyes open, aware of the heavy heartbeat near me. When I was finished, I pulled the deer over to a ditch and left it there. No one would see it.

There was a powerful thud behind me. I froze and spanned my senses. I tapped into my mind powers and was shocked. His thoughts were pretty loud.

She's standing still. Why? Turn around, c'mon. Turn around and let me bite your face off.

I spun quickly and gaped, but I didn't falter in my powers. I increased my gaze and he froze too. The wolf was huge and a russet brown with a slight whiteness at the bottom. Probably due to maturity. The wolf was about the size of a horse and his eyes were human. The wolf came out of its frozen state and started growling at me. The smell came from him, as well as the heavy heartbeat. I started edging slowly away from him and he snarled, baring his razor sharp teeth at me.

"Easy now. I'm not going go do anything." The wolf barked hard and snarled angrily and violently at me. The hackles of his back raised and his ears went flat. His front feet and back tensed. I've seen this manoeuvre before. He was going to attack me. But I'm strong, I know what to do. The wolf leapt at me.

I grabbed his face and slammed him into the nearby oak, with assistance of Anthony's power. He whined and got up slowly, looking at me with awe. I tensed and breathed slowly, ready for him to attack again.

Marie?

The wolf thought my name. He was either there at the phone call or Renesme told him, either way, I wasn't going to stand around and wait for him to attack me.

I turned around and ran back to the house. The wolf chased me for a couple of seconds before I boosted my power and he lost track of me. I found the house and saw only Charlie was in it. If I had a heart, it would be racing with fear. I closed the door behind me and sank to the floor. Charlie whipped his head round and came over to me quickly, placing both of his hands on my shoulders. He looked at me as to say calm down. I couldn't be calm, no way, not after that.

"What's wrong? Anthony went out looking for you. He said if he couldn't find you, you knew you wanted to be left alone and he'd go into town." I looked from side to side and spanned my senses. What was that thing? I didn't notice Charlie shaking me until he screamed in my face. "WHATS WRONG?"

"It was-huge. A big-huge-wolf. It knew-my name. Charlie, the wolf could THINK. That shouldn't be possible. It could think, it knew my name!" For the first time in two hundred years, I was frightened. I wasn't frightened of the wolf itself, and how it defies the laws of evolution and the animal kingdom.

But I didn't know what it was. Charlie looked away and then looked at me, taking his hands away. He breathed deeply.

"I saw one too. A sandy coloured one. How big was the wolf you saw?" Charlie crossed his arms. I stood and brushed myself off. My gaze flickered between the floor and Charlie.

"About the size of a horse; a big horse." I shudder at the thought of the russet wolf and how close he was to biting my face off.

"Mine wasn't as big, more like a small horse. Not a pony, a borderline horse." I thought back to when I was a little girl and how I used to read books about the wildlife. I loved reading and I remember small things. Then there are things I learned over time. Alphas were always bigger.

"We shouldn't tell Anthony." Charlie nodded and went back to the laptop. I went to my room and picked out an old book about the history of Forks. I remember specifically reading something about wolves.

Quileute's…legends, tribes…wolves.

Quileute wolves…

They're humans.

Dun-dun duuu!
