Life is like a box of chocolates - you never know what you're going to get.

It was after midnight that she was awaken by panicked voices. They were yelling and running fast past her window. She threw on some shoes as she ran out the door and saw someone pointing up as they were running. Amelia turned her head up and saw strange balloons coming from the sky. She was looking up at them staring in wonder, when all of the sudden Sam came running at her. Without breaking stride he grabbed Amelia and picked up speed.

She managed to look into the sky once more just as the balloon came into the light of the village. Her eyes widened as she realized it was a parachute. It was still at least 200 hundred feet in the air, when the person attached to it broke free and came falling to the ground. Amelia saw the figure hit the ground as light as a feather and immediately run for her. She stared in amazement.

"Edward!" She screamed. She struggled to break free, Sam huffed with the effort to run and not drop her at the same time. He came. He came. He came for me.

Chapter 5: In Your Arms

He was running and closing the gap between them when a werewolf suddenly jumped at him from a rooftop and sent them both crashing to the ground.

"No!" Amelia cried.

Before Sam turned the corner, she saw several more parachutes coming down from the sky. All around her, men she had seen everyday in the village, were phasing into werewolves. There were so many of them. Too many.

Sam ran into the farthest building and threw her to the ground. Amelia blinked in amazement when she saw what was in there. It stored an absolute arsenal of weapons. It was completely filled with guns, bullets, grenades and armor. She had no idea what this could do to a vampire, but at the very least it would slow them down.

Sam was furious. He was seething and struggling not to phase as he pulled a radio out of his pocket. "Get a truck here now!" he screamed. Amelia ran into the back of the house looking for a window, or door to escape through, some way to get to Edward. But, Sam sprinted after her and caught her halfway in the hall and dragged her back. "You try anything like that again, and I'll kill you," he barked.

Amelia could hear growling and screaming out the window. She had no idea how many werewolves were out there. She had never seen all those werewolves here, but with Sam, Amelia was never sure of anything. Sam had thrown her down next to a pile of grenades. She stole a look at Sam. He was preoccupied with his plans, she quickly grabbed a grenade and stuck it in her pocket.

Two men came running in. Sam yelled, "I don't want you phasing unless you absolutely have to. Get on the rooftops and do whatever damage you can." They grabbed guns and slung them on their backs. One of them grabbed a smaller bag probably filled with extra clips of ammunition and ran back out. Within seconds, Amelia heard gunshots crackle through the air and she jumped and screamed.

A truck screeched to a stop in front of the house and Sam whirled around and grabbed Amelia and threw her in. They were spitting dirt and rocks everywhere as they crashed through the fence that surrounded the whole village and sped off into the night. Amelia was terrified that she was leaving and that Edward was still back there. She twisted her head to see out the back window and she saw Edward jump the fence and sprint for the truck, but two werewolves were waiting in the darkness. They came from different angles and jumped him. Amelia let out a cry of panic.

All of the sudden, she heard a loud thump on the front of the truck making it rock to the side. Amelia whipped her head around and smiled in relief.

Emmett's fist came crashing through the windshield and in a lightning fast motion, he grabbed the man driving and tossed him out on the dirt.

Sam screamed obscenities as he took the wheel and turned it sharply in an attempt to throw Emmett off the front. The truck swerved and Amelia hit her head on the dashboard and was thrown to the floor. She looked up and saw Emmett come catapulting into the back of the truck and slam his fist through the window right by Sam's head. He grabbed Sam by the neck and squeezed. That's when Sam phased into a werewolf.

He took up almost the whole cab of the truck. He grabbed for Amelia to take her with him, but Emmett opened the driver's side door and pulled him out, and they began battling out on the desert floor. Amelia could feel that the truck was still moving. She scrambled off the floor and grabbed the wheel. Amelia looked back at Emmett and figured he could handle himself. She was going to Edward.

Amelia turned the wheel and pressed her foot all the way down on the gas. As she came closer, she could see Edward still in battle with one werewolf and another one lay motionless on the ground.

She had no idea what to do. Amelia looked into the village, and she could see battles happening just about everywhere. Then, to the left, she watched in horror as two werewolves broke free from a fight and were heading straight for Edward. She would catch glimpses of them between the houses. From the angle she was at, they had no idea Amelia was here. They would be coming around the side of the house right in front of her any second. She gritted her teeth and slammed down on the gas.

Just as they came around the corner, she was in front of them. The one in the back had time to react, but the one in front did not. She felt herself slam into something hard. When she opened her eyes, there was a werewolf wedged between her and the house. He was growling and squealing as he fought to get away.

In a lightning fast motion, Edward came around the side of the building. The first werewolf was running straight at him, but he jumped over him, slid across the front of the truck and wrenched the neck of the werewolf stuck there as he went by. The werewolf slumped forward, motionless.

When Edward got to the other side of the truck, he crouched and readied himself for an attack. The werewolf vaulted over the truck and came flying at Edward. He grabbed the werewolf's front legs and slung him into the house, then he pounced on him and punched him in the face and broke his neck. Then he ran to me.

Amelia scrambled her way out of the truck as she watched Edward coming straight for her. He grabbed her hand without stopping, and yanked her into the next house. Once they were inside, he pulled her to him instantly, and stared into her eyes. He placed his hands on each side of her face, and said breathlessly, "Is it really you?"

Amelia touched his cheek, touched his hair, took one of his hands and held it and kissed it and started to sob tearlessly. She thought that she was never going to see his beauty again.

"I was so stupid," he breathed. "I should have known you would never say those wor. . . " She didn't give him time to finish, she was kissing him. When Amelia broke away he said, "I just found the letter two days ag. . . ." She was kissing him again. He wrapped his arms around her and lifted her feet off the ground as he kissed Amelia. He crushed her to his stone body. She felt his cold lips press into her own and felt like she was home after so long.

When he let Amelia back down, their foreheads were touching as he said, "I'm so sorry I lost faith in you."

She stared at him with wide eyes and said, "Edward, I lost faith in you too. I have to tell you what happened . . ."

He put his finger up to her lips and shook his head as he said, "I know the madness I was in when I had to leave Bella, and the madness I have endured for the past seven months. What happened here is no different than me wandering around mountainsides killing every animal in sight, or huddled in an attic in Brazil grieving for Bella. We don't ever have to speak about it again."

She hugged him tightly. She was sure he had seen what had happened with Jake through Alice, but he understood and forgave her. Oh, how I love him. She pulled him to her lips again, and he answered completely.

When they broke free, he took her face in his hands again and said, "This time apart finally taught me." He was shaking his head and staring into her green irises. "No more guarding myself. No more pushing you away." He got even closer to her and said in a determined voice, "I'll never let anyone take you from me again, understand?"

Amelia did understand. She let out a cry of joy and pulled him to her. She crushed him to her and whispered, "Forever," in his ear.

Just then, a window came crashing in on them and Rosalie came flying into the room. She jumped to her feet and was about to leap back out the window when she saw us. She put her hands on her hips and rolled her eyes as she said, "A little help would be nice." Then she was out the window.

Edward turned to her. "I need you to stay in here, hide and don't come out. There are helicopters waiting about two miles away, I will be back for you."

"But I can help you," She begged, she couldn't bare to lose him again.

He kissed her deeply and breathed into her ear, "Please, for me." The sadness in his eyes told her that he felt the same way and that he would be back. She nodded and he was out the window in a flash.

His kisses still burned her lips. He hadn't stopped believing. He hadn't lost faith. My prince came for me.

She hated being stuck in here when Edward and his family were out there fighting. She made her way around the glass and looked out the window trying to get a glimpse of what was happening, but there was no view to the village from this room. Amelia moved into the bedroom to look out that window, when she heard heavy labored breathing. It startled her and she hissed. She looked around in the dark room, and then she saw Sam.

He was crumpled on the floor, sweat was running down his face and he had a huge gaping wound in his stomach. There was blood all around him. Amelia backed away in disgust and he chuckled, "Looks like he came for you."

She didn't say anything.

He licked his lips and closed his eyes. His breathing was labored as he said, "I thought for sure you would believe me when I told you he had forgotten about you."

Amelia shook her head. "I knew he would never stop loving me."

He gave a look of disgust. "You fell into Jake's arms fast enough, and Jake seemed to take the bait fairly easily. He was such an easy pawn."

She narrowed her eyes. "Jake is a better person than you'll ever be."

He leaned off the wall and said, "Jake was weak!" He flinched and clenched his teeth from the movement.

"No, Sam. You are the weak one. You were a good man once, but you became a person Emily could never love." He just glared at her and smirked.

"This isn't over," he whispered. He clenched his teeth and then his eyes closed, but his labored breathing told her he was still alive.

She walked out into the kitchen and looked out the window again. Amelia saw Carlisle and Alice run by. She was so glad to see they were safe. After about ten minutes, she decided she was leaving here to find another place to hide. Amelia didn't want to be this close to Sam. She peeked out the front door to make sure it was safe to move out, when she felt a strong hand around her slender neck. It was Sam. His wound was still bleeding, but he appeared to be much stronger than he looked in the bedroom.

"One of the best parts of being a werewolf, is we're fast healers," he whispered in her ear.

Her fingers dug into his hand trying to loosen his hold on her neck. She didn't have to breath but it was fairly uncomfortable, not being able to, so she fought at him. He stepped out the door and turned his head right and left all the while holding on to her neck. He chose to go right. He grabbed her around her middle and put one hand over her mouth as they ran.

He began to weave his way through the houses until they came to his house. He grabbed his keys and ran to his truck. He was throwing her in. Amelia had her feet up on the sides of the door fighting to stay out, when Sam was suddenly hit from the side. She turned to see Edward fighting him to the ground. Sam phased immediately, but before he got his bearing, Edward had Sam's jaws in his hands pulling in different directions. Sam was squealing and fighting to get at Edward with his claws, when off the rooftop, came two more werewolves.

"No!" she screamed.

From outside the village, Amelia saw another werewolf coming very fast. He looked larger and more powerful than any other werewolf, including Sam. She screamed thinking there was no way Edward could get out of this. Edward was fighting off the two werewolves while Sam was struggling to his feet. The other, larger werewolf launched himself off his powerful haunches and to my absolute shock, landed squarely on Sam.

They both went flying and rolling to the ground as dust flew up all around them. As she looked closer at the werewolf, she realized to her joy, that it was Jake. She heard a mournful yelp and turned to see a werewolf land at Edward's feet. The other werewolf seemed confused that one of his own had attacked his leader, and he backed up watching the scene while staying crouched and ready to pounce.

Sam had got away from Jake and was circling so that he might turn and make another attack. Edward and Jake ended up with their backs facing each other to meet the next charge. Edward ran first. Jake ran one second later.

Edward attacked his enemy with fury. He slammed his fist into the werewolf's face and turned lightning quick to slam his foot into his neck. He then picked up the werewolf at each end and slammed the werewolf's back over his knee. There was a sickening crack and the werewolf fell lifeless to the ground.

He turned to see if Amelia was all right, and then he ran to Jake and Sam. Sam had seen that Jake was stronger than him, and he was running back into the village. Edward turned and ran after both of them. Once they were in the middle of the houses, Amelia couldn't see them anymore.

She was running back to the house that she had been staying in, when she heard a menacing growl behind her. A werewolf was low to the ground staring at Amelia. His ears twitched and his eyes narrowed as he drew back on his hind feet and jumped at her. She hissed back prepared to fight until Jasper landed in front of her.

"Jasper," I breathed with relief. I was glad to see him but pissed that no one will let me fight my own battles.

He was crouched and ready to fight, when they both saw another werewolf coming at them and closing fast. She stiffened and prepared to run. It was Sam.

At the same moment the first werewolf attacked Jasper, she was just about to run until Sam grabbed her around her middle. He threw Amelia on his back and ran at lightning speed into the house with all the ammunition and phased back to his human form. He was breathing heavily and locking the door when Edward came crashing through it.

Sam backed up. He was smiling. Edward stared at him with black eyes. His lips were curled up over his teeth and she could hear his growl simmering deep in his chest.

He took a step closer to Sam, and Sam backed up again. "Not so tough without 300 werewolves to back you up, are you Sam," Edward sneered.

"You go to hell, bloodsucker!" he spat.

"If I go, I'm taking you with me," Edward shot back.

Edward was on him then. He got in a terrible blow before Sam could phase. Sam's left arm went completely limp. Sam had just phased when Edward jumped up to give him a kick with both of his feet that sent Sam flying. At that moment, five more werewolves came running into the house. Edward grabbed Amelia's arm and threw her on his back as he jumped through the closest window.

Amelia reached into her pocket and lifted a grenade into Edward's face while she smiled. He gave her a look of complete surprise as he said, "I love you."

"I know." She said.

Edward pulled the pin out with his teeth and launched the grenade into the house. One werewolf was just starting to jump out the window at them as he saw the grenade hit the floor.

Edward grabbed her hand and they took off running. He shielded her with his body as they ran. She head Sam yell, "Cullen, you leech! You son of a . . .!" Amelia felt the shock of the blast before she heard it. They kept running and Amelia watched a huge mushroom cloud of fire fill the sky.

She got her wish. She saw Sam die.

There were multiple explosions. Debris was falling everywhere. The blast had taken out several other houses, and more were catching fire. Amelia had just let out a sigh of relief. They were done. They could leave this place, until heard Edward let out a sound of alarm. She turned to see three werewolves coming at them. As she turned her head again, she saw three more coming from the other direction. She drew in a breath sharply and Edward turned his head. They were completely surrounded.

The werewolves stopped for a moment, their ears twitched and they were gnashing their teeth as they pulled back on their haunches. Then they attacked. Edward tried to shield them from Amelia with his body, but they pulled him down and wrestled her from his grasp.

She didn't run and one dark gray werewolf came at her from behind. His eyes glowed in the moonlight as he snarled and stuck his claws out straight as he jumped on Amelia. It came naturally, the way to defend herself, she crouched and leaped at him with full power. He bit into her arm and ripped part of her arm off.

At first she didn't feel anything, then the pain washed over her. She heard Edward scream, "Amelia!" She looked over to see the five werewolves pulling him to the ground. He was fighting valiantly. Throwing them off and struggling to get to her.

She was weak and she couldn't fight the wolf off of her. All of the sudden, she felt something else on top of her. A red werewolf grabbed the gray one attacking her and bit him hard in the neck. Amelia heard a large snap and the gray werewolf fell limp to the side of her. Through her pain, she recognized the red werewolf was Jake. He phased back into a human and began running with her. She saw Rosalie jumping into the middle of the swarm on Edward and throwing off werewolves. I then saw Emmett, and then Esme, and she knew Edward would be all right. She looked over herself and saw a chunk missing from her side and her left arm was a mess. The sight was nothing compared to the pain that she was feeling.

Her eyes closed.

"No Amelia!" Jake yelled. "Stay with me, stay awake!" He kept running from the village and turning his head. When he saw they were safe, he stopped.

"You're gonna be okay, everything is going to be all right," he said soothingly. He leaned down on one knee as he lifted up her arm to look at her stomach and then he swore. He held her closer to him and said, "Don't you die Amelia, don't you dare die!" He started crying while he held her tightly against his chest and rocked her back and forth.

She opened her eyes and put her hand on his face, "Love . . . you." I whispered. He was sobbing.

"I know you do, Amy. I love you too."

Jake was handing her over to Edward. She tried to open one eye, but it was so hard. Before Jake let go of her, she heard him say fiercely to Edward, "Save her!"

She could feel Edward running then. She tried to lift her hand but she couldn't. She whispered, "Die . . . in your . . . arms."

He let out a sigh and said, "Are you kidding? I have a fiancee who rams werewolves with trucks and carries grenades in her pocket, that kind of girl I want with me forever. You're not going to die, we will fix you. Don't worry!" Amelia could hear the whir of helicopter propellers and then Edward knelt down on the ground. "Marry me?" he stuck a ring on her finger.

Her head fell back and she pulled him to her, "Forever." she whispered. Edward chuckled and lifted her into the helicopter and they left back home.

A/N: Oh don't worry, this isn't the end... trust me! XD I knew that she couldn't die so I just made it seem as though she thought she could die! people these days... haahah!
