EMBRY POV
I slammed the door open to Quil's house. I knew his family isn't home, so I don't even try to be cautious.
"QUIL!" I scream up the stairs as I stick my head in the fridge.
I think about yelling for Quil again, but decided against it. I'd just shut the fridge, when I realized that the spot where I stood was too dark.
I looked up and yelped. I forget sometimes how fierce he can look.
" What do want, Embry." I could hear the pain in his voice.
"Quil," My face must have softened, because Quil's eyes reflect only annoyance as it does anytime someone offers sympathy.
"Don't," he says with a shake of his head. " what did you come here for?" I sigh, knowing there's only one way to revive my friend.
"He's going to take her to Violet." I watch as light re-kindles in his eyes.
" Take me. Now." He says with nothing more.
~~~~~~Anika~~~~~
" Are we there yet?" I ask for what may have been the 20th time since we got in the car. I was hoping to annoy Alec to death. Of perhaps back to life so I can kill him. "Almost.2 more minutes."He says without even a hint of strain.
" Where are we going anyway?" I through in for good measure.
"You'll see."He says with a chuckle.
"I hate surprises." I say with a pout.
" I know sweetie, but we're here now." He says with a gentle kiss to my cheek.
He must have known it be his last because he sighed and put the car in park.

I could hear the crush of gravel, then the popping of a metal door releasing. There was a gasp from 3 separate people, then 2 crashes onto the floor.
"Vi?" I heard Anika's voice. At first I thought it was a hallucination, that I was imagining my best friend rather then accepting what was probably true;That I was being brought to my death.
"Oh,Vi. I'm so sorry. We'll get you out of here." Anika said. I could feel a pressure leaving my wrist. I was really losing it.
Then I heard another crash. One that I knew couldn't be a hallucination. There was a growl. Like that of a wolf. Or a werewolf.
Anika screamed. There was a whimper and then another crash.
" Quil." Anika said, in a relieved tone.
There was a shift in the air, then my wrist both sprung free and the blind fold feel from my eyes. The first thing I saw was Quils beautiful brown eyes.
"Quil," I whispered, my hand reaching for his face. He put his hand over my own.
" Everythings ok. I'm here. We're here." He said in a soft soothing voice. That's the last thing I remember before the world feel dark. AGAIN. I was really starting to hate that.
…8 days later...
Having finally been released from the hospital, seemed like the perfect time to have a birthday party for Anika and I. And I was super excited, because even from my hospital bed I'd arranged a few things.
I could hear Anikas scream as I walked into the room.
" You didn't!" She said, releasing Embry for one of the few times in days.
Embry and Anika had apparently had a fight, while I was held captive by her psycho-ex, but had made up almost instantly once everything was explained, of course.
Embrika forever!
" Yeah. They're all here. Your favorite is in the house just for you!" I say to her as we hug.
As we break free, The group begins to sing. Then just as I planned, her crush of the group appears behind her and kisses her cheek. Anika breaks into a blush and nearly passes out.
I watch as Embry purposely looks away.
I laugh.
Quil comes up behind me seconds later and wrapped me into a hug. I lean up and give him a kiss.
This moment couldn't be anymore perfect, with Alec gone and everyone happy.
If only they knew, there perfect world was being watched by the source of their problems. Alec stood, at the window watching as the party goes moved around. It was laughable that they knew not of the danger that was solely inches below there feet...
