So thanks for the reviews :). I've decided to make Jake's pretransition thing a little bit different since it's never super described. So I'm gonna throw in a little Harry Potter, Vampire Diaries, Teen Wolf Werewolf stuff in here just for fun. But when he's an actual Werewolf he's still the Twilight kind if you know what I mean.

"Let's play a game." Jacob said moving to stand in front of her. They were standing on the hill that lead down to Hagrid's hut relaxing as Hermione told Jacob more about Hogwarts. She showed him the birds she'd learned how to conjure and a few other simple spells that he was so amazed by it made her smile.

"What game?"

"It's called Ninja." he said rubbing his hands together, smiling eagerly.

"Ninja?"

"Yeah we count to three then we make a pose. After that we get to make one move at a time where we try to smack each others hand. The other person has to avoid it but they can only make one move at a time to. The person who gets the other persons hands out first wins."

"We both know you'll win though." she said and Jacob's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"How do you know that. You haven't even tried yet."

"Yeah but you're reflexes are faster than mine because you're a werewolf."

"Yeah but who knows. You might win."

"Alright." Hermione said and Jacob grinned, rubbing his hands together eagerly.

"1, 2, 3, Ninja!" Jacob shouted moving into his pose with his arms in karate positions. Hermione swiped out at his hand and he easily dodged then quickly moved his other hand to swipe at hers, tapping it lightly. He smiled down at her smugly and she rolled her eyes but felt her lips curve up in response to his. He knocked her other hand out almost as quickly. "You know I was thinking, maybe since you have the rest of the day off we could go out into the woods."

"What would we do there?" she asked still almost completely focused on his hands as they moved, smacking at hers gently.

"Well we could go swimming, or if you want we could look for centaurs and other stuff."

"I thought you said the forest is dangerous?" she said. Hermione couldn't help but think about what Ron said.

"I meant when you're alone. I won't let anything happen to you so you're safe with me." he said shrugging as he moved his hand away from hers. They played again and again until she knocked one of his hands out. And they kept going until Hermione actually won.

"You let me win." Hermione said and Jacob shook his head.

"No I didn't." he said smiling slightly at her and Hermione raised her eyebrow. Jacob's smile broke out into a huge grin. "What, I couldn't help it. You're trying so hard and I do have an advantage. But, I actually wanted to tell you something."

"Alright." she said nodding slightly as she looked up at him and Jacob bit his lip slightly. He opened his mouth to say something then closed it, his eyebrows furrowing. Instead of speaking he glanced around them, his eyes lingering on the castle before he finally looked back down at her. Jacob took a deep breath and sighed slightly as he scratched the back of his head.

"Well you know how before we talked about Imprinting?" he finally asked and she nodded again watching him closely. Jacob squirmed under her gaze, shoving his hands in his pockets. "Well I-"

"It figures the filthy mud blood would have to resort to dating a Werewolf." Hermione glanced over Jacob's shoulder at where the voices were coming from and saw none other than Crab and Goyle watching them.

"It's not like she could get anyone else." Jacob's head snapped in the direction of Crab and Goyle.

"What?"

"Jacob don't worry about it." Hermione said shaking her head but Jacob either didn't hear her or decided to ignore her.

"No, I wanna hear him say it." Jacob said glaring at Crab as he walked towards him. He towered over the shorter boy, who gulped anxiously. "What did you say?" Jacob asked glaring down at him, keeping his jaw clenched.

"You heard him." Draco said and Jacob's eyes darted towards him before they moved back to Crab. "Or are you deaf, Mutt?"

"I've heard about you. You're Dumbledore's pathetic excuse for protection. Talk about a last resort. My father never thought he'd see the day when Hogwarts used guard dogs for protection." Draco said walking towards him, sizing him up as he sneered at the taller boy. Jacob's body was rigid with rage as he watched the blond boy, clenching his fists at his side to stop them from shaking. "You're the Mutt whose father can't run on two legs, let alone four." he said snidely and Goyle laughed, new found confidence in his voice now that Malfoy had arrived.

"Shut it, Draco." Hermione said scowling at the other boy as she wrapped her fingers around Jacob's wrist pulling him away. He was shaking but he let her pull him along, away from the other boys. "Come on Jacob."

"Wow, she has you on a short leash doesn't she. I thought she was supposed to be your bitch, not the other way around." Draco said and the other boys laughed. Before he could blink Jacob's fist had slammed into his face so hard it shook his brain.

"Stupefy!" Crab shouted and red light shot out of his wand before it hit Jacob, locking him in place.

"Petrificus Totalus!" Hermione shouted back and Crab's face went slack before he fell to the ground. Jacob's body barely moved as the spell started to wear off, due to the fact that the curse didn't last for very long on the two natured. Malfoy was already pushing himself up on one knee, glaring at the Werewolf.

"Impedimenta." Malfoy said flipping his wand and Jacob flew backwards through the air until he slammed against the ground roughly. Hermione rushed towards his side and Jacob groaned pushing himself up onto his elbows. Draco stood brushing himself off, but the Slytherin wasn't done with him yet. He pointed his wand at Jacob while Hermione was still a few feet away before he shouted, "Crucio!"

"Protego!" Hermione shouted and the curse bounced off of the shield that had appeared in front of Jacob, back onto Malfoy who collapsed on the ground in pain. She moved to step towards Jacob again but he growled, sounding more animal than man at the moment as his whole body shook.

"Get away from me." She could see his eyes dilating as he struggled not to phase. Crab and Goyle pulled Malfoy up and backed away from Jacob, clearly afraid. Jacob pushed himself to his feet breathing heavily and they bolted away, back towards the castle.

"You'll pay for that Mudblood." Draco mumbled and Jacob growled moving to step forward but the shield forced him backwards. He was shaking to hard it looked like his body was vibrating. He watched them go towards the castle as she watched him. Once they were far enough away he squeezed his eyes shut and pinched the bridge of his nose.

"Jacob?"

"Don't." he snapped jerking away from her. His eyes were bright yellow as he watched her and his jaw was at an awkward angle like he'd started to phase but then stopped before it could get to far. Hermione took a step back and he frowned slightly almost like he was frustrated. "Wait. I'm sorry."

"It's fine."

"No it's not. You should just go back to the castle."

"But what about our date?"

"I'm not really feeling up to it anymore. Maybe some other time."

"It wasn't that big of a deal Jacob." she said. His eyes finally lifted to meet hers and Hermione saw all the yellow had disappeared.

"Jacob." Jacob squeezed his eyes shut and cursed under his breath so queitly Hermione almost couldn't hear him before he turned around. She stepped to the side so she could see around him and saw one of the biggest men she'd ever seen besides Hagrid and Jacob. He had tan skin and dark eyes like Jacob with a thicker head. The tribal tattoo was on his right bicep and the only thing he was wearing were cut-off's. He looked a little bit older than Jacob and a little chubbier but other than that they looked pretty much the same.

"Hey Sam."
