Chapter 7 JPOV – Chaser!
Was that a dream? I thought as I opened my eyes, but within a second I realised it wasn't, it was really the best night of my life. Bella didn't run away when I told her how I felt, she accepted it and she embraced it – well at least I think she did?
"Jake?" Bella mumbled "Is that you up now?"
"Yeah, how what time is it?"
"Not that late, just about 10"
"Crap! I am supposed to go on duty at 10!" I shouted as I ran about my room finding clothes to wear. "Do you want to come with me and meet Emily, Sam's imprint?"
"I have a lot of homework to do so I really should go home."
"Okay, how about I drop you off at yours and then after my shift I'll come to yours and we can do something together?"
"Yeah, okay"
"Right well get dressed and put all your stuff in you truck"
"Wont you need your car so you can get back here?"
"Bella, we caught up with that bloodsucker. That should mean a lot to you."
After that she started running around getting her things together as I ran downstairs to make us some food, of which there was little – The whole pack was here yesterday. While Bella was getting dressed I phoned Sam to tell him I was running late and I had to drive Bella back to Forks, but I will be there as soon as possible.
Running with Embry was the only time I actually enjoyed being a wolf; I was free to think about things and not be embarrassed about them because it was only Embry, my best friend for years. We were running at a even pace when it hit us, that gut wrenching sickening sweet stench that only a vampire could leave.
Should we alert the others or should we follow it?
Emm, I think we should go back and tell Sam!
But what is it gets away?
How about I follow the scent and you run back and get the others?
Okay! Good luck Jake.
So I kicked my running up a notch, following that stench. I knew that I would eventually reach either it or its last meal. The smell of it is getting stronger which must mean that I'm getting closer to it. I hope the others hurry up. There was a flash of orange about half a mile ahead of me, that must be the bloodsucker I'm after but I don't know. The orange flew away from me, towards the sea when I felt the others – Embry, Sam, Jared and Paul - join me. I felt them speeding their way towards me and I continued to run towards that orange blur before me. This was it; this was when we were going to finish her off after all the deaths she has caused in the forests nearby and getting us blamed for it. There was no escape for her now. She was running south-east – towards Olympia but we will get to her before she gets to the city and she obviously knew that too because as I thought that she changed direction and headed towards the closer but less populated Skokomish, where she can get into the sea which means we can't follow her much further. The rest of the pack agreed with me on that one.
What should I do?
Just leave her, we will get her again. She obviously wants something in La Push or Forks because that is the third time since we killed that other bloodsucker that she has tried to get in.
Yeah! Well I'll see you back at La Push, I'm going to Bella's.
Okay, Jacob remember be careful.
Will do Sam.
And with that we all separated and headed to where we were going. I pushed my speed back up and headed straight for Forks, where I would see my Bella again.
