Jake's POV
I felt myself phase back as I begun to heal from almost being sliced in half by that bloodsucker. When I felt the wound close I stood and made my way towards my house. The first thing I noticed was Charlie was standing in the entry way. The second thing I noticed was that Bella wasn't. I turned to Charlie to ask about Bella and saw he had pulled his gun. I raised my hands and slowly backed away.
"Charlie what the hell?" I asked.
"Y-you're that thing. T-that beast that has b-been attacking people it's you," he said, his voice shaking slightly.
"Charlie I swear to you I have never attacked a human-," I started.
"Liar!" he roared. "Large beasts have been spotted in the area of the attacks, and I just saw you rip the head off a person and your buddies rip someone else in half."
"Charlie you don't understand-," I tried again.
"No, there is nothing to understand. You just killed a person, Jake. I'm gonna have to take you and whoever else was involved in. By any means necessary," his voice was stony at the last part and I saw him take off the guns safety.
I had no doubt that I could take him down before he got a shot off. Even if he managed to shoot me I don't believe that the bullet could damage me although it wasn't a theory I wanted to test any time soon. I wanted to solve this problem logically without either of us having to resort to violence, but how could I convince Charlie that I am neither the enemy nor a threat? There had to be some way for me to convince Charlie that those things weren't human then it hit me.
"Charlie did you see a drop of blood come from those creatures?" I asked him giving him a level stare.
He faltered. His gun lowered a little. He looked at me and said, "What the hell is going on here Jacob?"
"I'll explain everything just put the gun away," I told him.
"Okay," he said putting down his gun slightly defeated.
I led him towards the coach and sat him down. I went on to explain everything to him starting from the very beginning with everything from the Quileute legends. Then I went on to explain about the Cullens, who they were, and our treaty. Then I told him everything that I had learned from Bella about her and Edward's relationship. Last I explained everything that had been going since the Cullens had left and about the red headed bloodsucker after Bella. Charlie had listened to me the whole time silently shaking his head. Then out of nowhere he jumped up.
"That red-head is a vampire? Oh my God she took Bella!" he said.
"She has Bella?" I said as my heart sank.
I ran for the door and when I'm out of it I saw Sam standing there. He holds out his hand and said in an accusing manner, "You told Charlie everything."
"Yes, I did but that is the least of our problems. That red-headed bloodsucker has Bella. We have to go after her," I told him.
"We will not be chasing down that bloodsucker. We have an obligation to protect our lands, and we will not leave them unprotected," he told me.
"But she has Bella!" I yell.
"Regardless we have an obligation," he said calmly.
"But I love her Sam. What if it was Emily?" I asked getting mad.
"Emily is different. She is my imprint," he said.
"The only difference is I love Bella of my own regard. I'm not drawn to her because of some mystical soul mate bullshit!" I yell pushing by him.
"That's it. You will not go after Bella alone. Now return to your house," he said in his alpha voice.
I try to fight it, but I found myself turning and walking back into my house. I turn and look at Charlie and I see him sobbing in complete defeat. I turn away from him and make my way to my room. I paced around my room trying to think of a way around this alpha order. I had been pacing for about thirty minutes when it came to me.
I jump out of my window and started running towards Bella's house. I don't phase because I don't want Sam to hear what I'm thinking. When I make it to her house I jump threw her window her window. I made my way to her computer and shake the mouse to make her screensaver go away. Her e-mail was still up. I was thankful because if it wasn't things would have been difficult for me. I open a new message window and found Alice's e-mail address. I type a very short message:
Shortie,
Red has Bella. I need help. Hurry back.
Jake
I send the message and go and sit on Bella's bed. Now that the message has been sent there is nothing I can do but sit and wait. Hopefully she will she get the message soon for Bella's sake.
So there is chapter five and I know it's short so I don't need you to tell me that. Also I don't need you telling me to make chapters longer. When I write the chapters I right them as long as I feel that they need to be so I don't need you telling me they need to be longer although your reviews are well appreciated. Thank you.
