I guess i'm supposed to say that I don't own Twilight or any of the characters. :)
The Week Before
Haley
"Hey, Dad. Class ended early. Can you come pick me up?"
"Sure, Haley. I'll be there in twenty."
"Thanks, Dad. I'll see you soon." I walked over to the usual spot where I got picked up, noticing the the setting Sun. Usually by the time I ended class, night had already fallen. I just stared at the orange sky, appreciating the change of scenery.
"Excuse me, Miss." I almost jumped as a deep, musical voice interrupted my trance. I turned to face a beautiful figure standing beside me. I hadn't even heard him approach me. "I'm sorry to bother you, but I just finished my shift and my car is having some trouble, and I just need someone to turn the ignition while I try to get it going. Do you mind helping me out? It won't take long." I hesitated for a moment. He seemed and courteous enough, but something about him made me want to run. You're just being paranoid, Haley. He just needs a little help.
"Sure." I followed him around the corner of the nearby coffee shop where I assumed he worked. I smirked when we turned into the "employee parking lot" in the creepy back alley. What an awful place to entrust your mode of transportation to.
Just as I approached the lonely car, I suddenly face fingers of ice clutch my neck and throat in a fearsome strangle. Before I could realize the danger, I felt his bite as he sank his teeth into the soft flesh of my neck. I tried to scream from the instant fire of pain, but his hold never loosened. I was paralyzed and blinded from a burning that shot through my veins. I was aware of everything and nothing at the same time. I could only hope that whatever this monster was doing to me would end me quickly. It would've been seconds.. it could've been weeks; I couldn't tell. I never even felt myself fall. Savage pain enveloped me and it was all I knew. I felt hopelessly weak, though it didn't lessen the pain. I couldn't scream; I could barely breathe. Nobody would know to help me.
"Haley! Haley! What happened?" I heard my dad call as he ran. He found me. I tried to speak, but no sound came out. My body involuntarily writhed and seized. "Haley. It's all right. I'll get you to a hospital." He tried to keep me still. Then I felt him paused and finger the wound on my neck. He check my eyes, and was silent. "It'll be okay, Haley. It'll be okay.
The pain finally began to lift. How long has it been? I awoke on a bed of grass; the smells of grass and tires hitting me first. I sat up slowly, and looked around. I could see everything. I could hear everything. What happened? Where am I? I glanced around, not knowing what I was looking for when my eyes caught a piece of yellow paper sticking out of the grass, like it was buried. I dug it out, noticing immediately a scent that made my throat itch and gasp. Attached was a road map. I recognized my father's handwriting.
My Dear Haley,
I can't tell you how sorry I am for leaving you where I have, alone to deal with what has happened to you. For your and our safety, we must stay apart for at least a little while. I know you have all kinds of questions right now, and I promise you that I will answer them when we meet again. For now, you must go to your uncle's house in Washington. You will have to go on foot. Don't worry, you will not get the least bit tired. Understand me, Haley, it is absolutely imperative that you obey me this if nothing else. Do not put yourself in the presence of people. If you even sense a human is near, run and don't stop. You must take any route possible away from people. I know you're confused and scared, but I beg that you will have faith in our love for you. Don't stop running. I love you, my precious girl.
Dad
Confused and scared couldn't begin to describe how I was feeling. Anger would've crept up if my father hadn't told me to trust him completely. I knew he wouldn't fail me. I trusted him with my life, so I would with the known. I looked at the map with the route drawn over trees and mountains to my old home in La Push. I looked up and took a breath I wasn't sure I needed and began to run.
Is this story at all good? Please review! Also, though I want to be as accurate as possible to the books, I am pretty much working off of my memory of the story. If there are any inconsistencies, let me know and i'll patch that right up. Thanks!
