Victoria stepped progressivo, para a frente once and I retaliated.
"Bella, please don't give up. Keep fighting." Edward bellowed in my head.
I can't, I can't, I can't! How can I fight Victoria? Edward, I amor you!
Victoria leaped.
"NO!"
"NO, BELLA, NO!" Edward bellowed.
Victoria jumped on me and pinned me to the ground, grasping my elbows with her marble hands.
Edward's growl inside my head was so loud that I struggled to hear Victoria.
"I can't belive how short I need to cut this... either way, it's a mate for a mate right?"
"Edw-!"
Victoria's hand wrapped around my neck cutting of my air supply and my scream.
"Hang on Bella, just hang on." Edward begged.
"Jacob, help..." I choked through my windpipe.
Her hand slowly tightened around my neck, pulling my bones out of their sockets. Pain beyond pain.
"BELLA!"
Then the weight vanished as quickly as it began but I still couldn't mover or breathe.
"Move, Bella. You need to move, right now before you get hurt."
As much as I wanted to obey the voice, I couldn't... come on, move, move.
There was screams of pain, tearing sounds and the raw smell of blood swirling all around... and was that yelps from a dog or a pack of dogs?
Sudden realisation wove through me in waves, my eyes widened and I bolted up.
"JACOB!"
My mouth hung open as I saw Jacob, Sam, Embry, Paul and Jared pouncing on to Victoria, who was just throwing them back off even though she only had one arm attatched to her body.
Where was the other one? I saw it lying at the foot of a árvore and it was moving.
I screamed.
Jacob's head flinched in my direction with a growl.
The arm was moving towards Victoria, even in Vampire World... that wasn't possible, was it?
Paul and Jared were now taking Victoria on. Paul was facing her and Jared was behind her.
Her hair whipped around as she searched for an escape root and then Sam leaped at her from her right.
She wasn't caught off guard.
I yelped as Sam's body got slammed into a árvore which fell, and dividido, dividir in half.
"Sam!"
Jacob growled towards me again and motioned to Jared to me with his head. Jared ran progressivo, para a frente and grabbed a mouthful of my jaqueta and ran.
It was just like running with him though not as exhilarating.
"Jared, let me go! I won't let you- urgh! Jared! Put me down now!"
Surprisingly, he obeyed. He dropped me on the ground... but I didn't know where we actually were: in the woods still but he was a werewolf and like vampires, they could run an unimaginable distance in a very short o espaço of time for all I knew, we were ten miles away from the fight site.
"Jared, take me back this instant."
He shook his head, turned and ran back.
"No! Jared, you have to take me back! Jared! Jared!"
He was far gone, he would never come back, not until Victoria was gone.
"Edward, please talk. I need your help."
Nothing.
"JARED!"
mais nothing.
Stupid werewolf! I thought. I had to get back home, Jacob needed me, I wouldn't be able to live with myself if anything happened to him.
I trudged forwards... I think.
Green. Green. Green.
Why did everything here have to look the same? Where is the signs for us city girls? I hated Forks even mais than usual.
"Jacob Black, I am going to kill you when I get home." I muttered to myself.
Talking to yourself, one of the early signs of madness.
I would kill him, if he didn't get to me first or Victoria.
I stomped forward, unsure of where I was going or what new dangers I would encounter on my way.
Which way was it to town? I strained my ears but I couldn't hear a thing. No birds, no traffic, no werewolves.
I was going to get myself even mais lost, I knew it and Jacob wouldn't be able to find me for ages, I would freeze (possibly get pneumonia) and he would kill me for sure.
I had to push ferns out my way, find a way to climb over fallen trees and attempt at not hitting my face off of branches and failing mierably, huge cuts were now gaping across my face, hands and arms. A few times I fell fracturing my kneecaps and scraping my knees.
My sense of direction was never good but it felt even mais so in this scenery of nothing but green.
Why did I have to be the only non- mythical thing around this place? I could be out there helping Jacob or I could be with him now, he wouldn't have gotten bored with me, I could be beautiful and immortal, someone he would want to be with forever and ever.
I was officially lost, everything looked like clones so I couldn't even say I reconised the shape of a árvore or a bush. What could I do? I couldn't stay here, it could be hours before Jacob could come and collect me.
The trees rustled around me, the sun was setting in the horizon making the sky a very light blue with rosa, -de-rosa streaks shining through it with a twinge of orange. It was beautiful and I wished that it would leave, nothing could cheer me up, turn my frown upside down.
I had no idea if I was even in Forks anymore, I wanted to go home; the temprature had dropped dramatically.
Where's a tiny psychic vampire when you need one?
Alice, please, please, I know you said you'd never ever bother me again but please, this is the one time I need you to see me... Alice? Alice? ALICE!!!!
"ALICE!"
