PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING:
SORRY!
Really, I want to die, I'm so sorry. Please don't hate my guts!! I promise I will update more often from now on. I'm thinking of ending this story soon, though. I'm beginning to think that making a sequel was a really bad idea. I really don't have many ideas as to how this will end, and it's getting harder and harder to think. Please have faith in me, and I promise you won't be disappointed.
ALSO, I have had this idea for my FanFiction for a while, and I just wanted to share it with you guys.
I WANT TO DO:
1 OCC (Truth and Change)
1 EdwardXBella (Everything Happens For a Reason or "EHFAR")
1 JakeXNessie (Coming after Change and EHFAR are over)
1 OCC Imprint Story (Finding Me, even though it's not mine anymore) I'll probably do another one.
AND
1 All human (No clue when that is going to happen)
After those stories are done, I will probably start the cycle all over again.
ENJOY THIS CHAPTER (FINALLY)
Disclaimer :Twilight is not mine…much to my dismay.
Chapter 6: Stay Strong, My Angel
As my eyes opened, I realized that my clothes were covered in dirt, leaves, and a fresh helping of morning dew. Looking past the thick covering of tress, I could see the fog rolling over the hilly terrain.
I sighed and rolled over, facing Seth. He was still asleep, of course. I kissed his cheek, and he made an irritated noise. I laughed and rolled over, facing the foggy hills again. After staring for a minute or two at the beautiful scenery, I realized that there were figures moving towards me, submerged in the fog. I automatically recognized them as wolves. Panic flowed through my veins.
"Seth!" I shook him violently.
"Unngh…pancakes?"
"No, Seth!" I shook him harder. "Crazy Irish werewolves."
His eyes slowly opened. "Whatd' you say?" he muttered groggily."
I groaned. "Look Seth!" I pointed at the multiple werewolves running at up through the fog.
"Crap!" Seth shouted, now wide awake. He ran into the woods, and seconds later I heard to familiar sound of phasing. He ran past me towards the pack of wolves. I hid behind a rock, fearing what would come next. Squinting into the fog, I could see Seth slow down and join the pack of wolves running towards me. What is he doing!
I hid myself behind the rock where I was sure they couldn't see me. The only sound was my shallow breaths, and a few animals in the woods. Eventually those sounds were joined with the sounds of footsteps. Or should I say paw-steps?
"Mae, its just us." I recognized Jake's voice.
Oh thank god! I stood up, facing them. "So, what is going on?"
Jake was the only one in human form. The rest of them looked stressed and high strung. I realized Jake's face was clouded with worry and fear. He didn't answer me.
"What happened?" I asked with sudden urgency.
"They are looking for you, Mae."
"What do you mean?"
"I don't even know. They have everyone else held hostage, and they are combing the woods for you." He said, but I couldn't shake the feeling that there was something he wasn't telling me.
"What else?" I pressed.
"Nick joined them." He stated, looking down at the ground.
I sat down on the rock, trying to steady myself. "Crap." I took a few shallow breaths. "What do we do?"
"Well, the Cullens are on their way…"
"Wait?" I interrupted. "Why do the Cullens need to be here?" When the Cullens became involved, it usually meant serious business.
He sighed again. "We have to hide in the woods, Mae. We think they want to kill you." He shook his head. "If they try to hurt you, we won't be able to stop them on their own. We need some vampire power."
It was quiet for a minute.
"So, what do you want me to do?" I asked.
"Well, first, I need you to get on Seth's back so that we can take you as far into the woods as possible." Jake explained.
I nodded, still in disbelief. I walked over to Seth, who nodded at me, and bent down. I got on his back and held on as tightly as I could.
"Ready?" Jake asked, looking back at me.
I nodded again.
Jake took a running leap and phased, charging into the woods. I took one last look at the medieval castle as Seth took off. Watching it disappear, I realized that my family and friends were being held hostage there, and I don't know if they would live or not. My heart started pounding in my chest. Seth seemed to notice. He turned around to look at me, worry written all over his face.
If I was worried before, it was nothing compared to what happened next.
Seth was still looking at me, not paying attention to where he was going. Therefore, he didn't see the giant oak tree coming up on him fast.
My eyes widened.
My hear t stopped.
I scream.

"She's losing too much blood!" someone shouted.
My eyes were closed and I all I could see was pulsing red behind my eyelids. I wanted to ask who was losing blood, but suddenly, I was hit with a wave a pain that seemed to come from everywhere. The scream that I let out was ferial and primal. I couldn't hear, see, or feel anything but the pain.
"Oh my god! She's awake." Someone shouted. "How is she awake?"
I scream over and over again.
"I have to get this bone back in place." Someone said with extreme urgency.
I hear a bone crack, followed by a wave of pain that was at lease ten times worse than the pain I was experiencing already. It stole my voice, and instead of screaming, I felt my whole body go numb and slip unto darkness…
It was comforting and numbing. It was dark and lonely. It pulled me into an ocean of calm. It was warm and inviting. It enticed me. It scared me.
I knew somehow knew that I couldn't let myself fall. I fought as hard as I could. I wouldn't lose; even if I had to feel that pain again. Fighting it became harder and harder as I felt wave after wave of numbness wash over me.
I slowly slipped under.

Seth POV
Werewolf vs. Tree.
Tree won.
Strange, isn't it?
What's stranger is that the tree was nothing compared to the pain I was feeling listening to Mae screaming in pain as Jake tried to keep the gash in her stomach from loosing too much blood.
When Jake snapped her leg back into place, the screaming stopped.
Mae! I howled as loud as I could.
"Its okay, Seth!" Quil shouted at me. "Carlisle will be here soon."
I'm sure he thought I was howling in pain, and I was. But it was heart in pain, not my body. I started crying big werewolf tears, as I saw Jake listening for a heartbeat, then pounding on her chest, obviously trying to restart her heart. I cried out again as my heart squeaked and I could practically feel my world crashing in.
"Stay with me Mae!" Jake shouted as Sam held her stomach wound together, trying to stop the bleeding.
As soon as I smelled vampire, my heart swelled up with hope. Carlisle can fix her, I told myself.
Right away, Carlisle took charge with Edward right by his side. Carlisle threw Edward a roll of gauze and told him to block the wound as he took over the job of restarting her heart. "Alice!" he called for her to bring him the blood they took from a nearby blood bank as soon as we called him. They aren't usually prone to stealing, but this was necessary.
He hooked the blood up to the needle and stuck it in her arm hastily and continued working on her heart. He asked Edward to switch positions with him when he started looking a little too thirsty. Carlisle blocked off the wound and made quick work of stitching her back up. As he moved to brace her leg Edward announced that she had a pulse.
The hope came back. She wasn't bleeding and her heart was beating on it's own. Aside from a broken leg, she would be fine. Carlisle braced her leg and told Edward to give her something for the pain and to keep monitoring her. He then came over to me. Quil informed him of my shattered rib, cracked muzzle, and the bone poking out my leg. Carlisle minced and injected something into my vein. I guessed it was pain medication, judging by the relief I felt.
He continued to work over me, as Edward helped Mae. I watched her the whole time, caring less about my injuries than hers. I watched Edward stitched up the minor gashes al over her body, and pump bag after bag of blood into her.
The rest of the Cullens were setting up tents behind us. As soon as Carlisle was done working on me, he went back to check on Mae, then to the tents speak with Jasper about their plans for Michael and his "goons". Emmett came over and picked up Mae carefully and brought her to a tent, then came back for me.
Mae and I were in the same tent, where I could see her and make sure she wasn't in any pain. I refused to close my eyes for a minute, and swore that as soon as I could phase, I would take care of her. I was disoriented, but sincere. I needed nothing more then to phase and hold her in my arms again.
I could feel myself drifting off, and I knew that the medicine had kicked in. I fought it as hard as I could, wanting only to stay awake keeping a loving eye on my angel, protecting her to the best of my ability. It wasn't long before I realized that I couldn't hold on. I whimpered as I slowly fell victim to the drug-induced sleep that was waiting for me. I got one last glimpse at Mae's battered face.
Stay Strong, my angel.
