Chapter 27
Finally, something worked in my favor and just when I needed it. Baring my teeth I step closer to the Blacks, Charlie and Sam Uley. Jacob looks like he is about to lose it, but I'm sure I could handle an immature wolf. Thinking about what I should do to them, Carlisle's face pops into my mind. I guess he wouldn't be too thrilled if I killed anyone. Not that I could bring myself to do that. Jacob did use to be my best friend, and Charlie my dad.
Jacob finally lost control and shifted into a wolf. He was almost my size but I still had the advantage. A large thud was heard to the left of us, and Charlie was seen unconscious on the floor. I told him he shouldn't have gotten involved.
I guess Billy was used to all this bizarreness cause he didn't even flinch. Clearing his throat he bravely and perhaps stupidly stepped forward. "Look, I don't know if you can hear me like that Bella, but we can't just have Forks flooded with menaces. Be it an old friend or not."
Really? So what was he going to say next, no hard feelings? I could see that I wasn't going to be getting away from this house peacefully. Jacob was ready to launch at me and just as he did so I managed to swipe a claw at him, effectively throwing him across the room. I could get used to this whole bear thing. I laughed, but it came through as a strange roaring sound.
Sam had phased now too, and charged at me, from behind and landed on my back. I needed to defend myself but I still was hesitant to cause any long term damage to either Jacob or Sam. Wiggling I try to knock him off. I still wasn't used to this new bear skin. Running with full speed, I break out through the back porch window. It wouldn't look to good having the Forks population witness a bear and wolf fight on the streets.
Sam is still holding on my back for dear life, so I start bucking back and forth. Eventually I manage to throw him off me, knocking him into a tree. He can't get back up, I think he broke his back against the tree I threw him on. Time to make a break for it. I head towards the forest and run in the direction of the Cullens house.
One thing I didn't think of was changing back. I don't know how I did this in the first place. I make it back fairly quickly. Coming to the edge of the forest I can see the lights on in the Cullen household. I can also hear voices as if they were right next to me. Weird, I still have my vampire senses in this form. Too bad I can't talk this way.
"Do you smell that?" Jasper asked, sounding stunned. Could they sense me? I don't think they could if he was questioning my scent.
"Yeah! It smells like dinner decided to come to me tonight, cool!" Emmett bellowed. I heard heavy, quick footsteps and running towards me. Emmett couldn't possibly think I was food…actually Emmett would think that. Before I had a chance to do anything Emmett was crouching in front of me, poised to attack.
This is not good. The rest of the family had come out with Emmett as well. I backed away a little in an attempt to stall.
"What's wrong bear? Don't like a little competition?" Leave it to Emmett to talk to a bear. Just so happened that this bear was an actual person, but he didn't know that. I growled and raised up on my two hind legs. I wonder if I could walk upright like this, that would be funny to see.
"Emmett son, stop playing with your food." Carlisle prodded.
"Yeah, I don't know why, but for some reason I feel sorry for the bear. Maybe you should go hunt something else." Jasper suggested. I'll have to thank him later.
"Nah, this bear looks like it'll put up a fight." Emmett was determined to take me down. I saw Edward shaking his head with a small smirk playing on his lips. God, I could just jump him right here and now. Before I realized it, Emmett had sprung forward and landed on me, with my back to the ground. I need to focus, before something bad happens. Just wait until I turn back to vampire, I'm going to kill Emmett.
As I thought about what I'd do to Emmett when I changed back, I could feel myself convulsing again. Pretty soon my bear fur and skin had disappeared and inconveniently enough, I was back to being a vampire again. A naked vampire.
((AN: Haha. So, Bella changed back to her vampire form in front of the Cullens…with Emmett on top of her…naked…hahaha. So…review please? REVIEW!
A little explanation about Bella. She is a vampire, not a shapeshifter…not really. She can shapeshift as her ability…it'll be further explained next chapter. :) ))
