JACOB POINT OF VIEW

It's been ten hours since those heros left making it officially twenty four hours since I last was asleep. Been up for a full day, fun.

Emma wound was a lot worse than we thought, if one of us didn't have healing powers I don't know if we would have been able to save her.

"Hey Zack thank you for saving her..." He cuts me short motioning for me to get out of the room. Zeke and Zeth are sleeping so I'm sure she's fine if I step right outside.

I'm torn because I know I need to help Emma I definitely can't leave her alone, but Zack, Zeth, Zeke they helped me get through that time when I lost my parents, lost myself they found me again.

But a person without powers towards a person who we don't even know what he has is not a goner, but going to need help.

"What's your deal with her, Jacob? Why are you helping her?" Zack asked inpatiently.

"Who said I was helping her?" I asked trying to answer as much questions with a question.

"So if I asked you to give a report would you do? You spent so much time with her I'm sure you have something on her." He replied daring me to do it.

He knows I can't betray her trust after she told me everything that's why he's challenging me to do it.

"Believe it or not I don't have anything." His laughter filled the hallway, sending chills down my spine. He knows something.

"Okay, well let me do the report for you. The heros for some reason are trying to kill her or take her somewhere. And I heard her say something about someone trying to kill her. Am I wrong?"

Snap, did she let that slip?

I'm almost speechless, no one could make me completely speechless.

There is the question of: What do I say that doesn't give away anything else?

"What, cat gotcha tongue?" He asked amused.

"I don't know you're the one who gave me the report so you tell me. Of what you know about Emma so far, and I even saw her risking her life to give you a sword to help you out, what's your deal with her? She dealing with a lot now, and I wouldn't expect you to understand I just want to know, what's your problem with her? Zeth even tried to help her out, it seems like you're the only one who has a problem with her." I told him frustrated.

In a perfect world we would all be buddy buddy with each other, but let's face it that's never going to happen.

"Man do I like our talks. To be honest she not that bad..."

I'm sorry did I just hear him say that?

"If you tell her I said that I'll kill you." He finishes laughing it off. I laugh with him fully aware that he's serious, but it was nice to laugh with him just like old times.

"Okay, I'm going to wake up those two lazy bums. I'll let you know when we got the food ready." I don't know what it is, but I have a weird feeling as to why would he rush to wake those two up for food?

Hoping because he's hungry for food.

I walk back into Emma room watching her chest rise, and fall. Nine hours ago she wasn't really breathing much let alone moving, good thing Zack had healing powers.

I just wish I was the one who did it, who saved her.

Her eyes open slowly having her green eyes meet mine.

She sits up slowly, and stays up. Wow, I'm surprised she didn't feel any pain or enough pain to fall back down.

"Is everyone okay?" She asked closing her eyes, and reopening them. I'm shocked that's the first thing she's worried about is us, when she's the one that almost died on us.

She starts laughing out of the blue, that it just makes me that much more confused, and shocked.

"Sorry, your face expression priceless. So what happened anyway?" She asked urging me to actually tell her something.

"You don't remember?" I asked fully noticing her as she rolls her eyes at me.

"Of course I remember, well up to the part where everything went black. It was weird it felt...it felt like I was falling down a bottomless pit. Everything was dark."

Sadly, I know the feeling.

"I know the feeling. Your whole world is so dark it surrounds you like there's no room to breathe. The darkness surrounding you is devouring you slowly until it either gets you or you have a light shinning through the dark." She looks over at me shocked at how I reacted.

I had no idea where that came from.

"Sorry, that's probably not what you wanted to hear, sorry." I kept mumbling for some reason. She just smiles, and grabs my hand. I look down at our hands, and back up to her suddenly aware of the situation.

For a moment there was silent until her eyes widen, and she drew her hand back her cheeks turning a bright red.

"Sorry, I had no idea what came to me." She replied embarrassed.

"No, its okay..." She suddenly cuts me off, and for once I'm really grateful she did thar because that was all I got.

"It was exactly how it felt, you know the darkness surrounding you, but nevermind it was weird, and...it'll just sound crazy." At this point it was my turn to laugh at her.

"Just tell me I don't judge...well not anymore." I told her trying to get her to tell me.

She takes in a deep breath, and let's it out. "I heard a voice before my world went completely black. I don't know who said this, but it, it comforted me, it made me feel reasured that I'll be okay. Okay here it goes. The voice told me 'no worries, you're going to be okay.' I know it sounds weird nothing fancy, but that one sentence made me feel...feel safe."

I was completely speechless like I have no words to say to her.

I guess there is someone in this world who could make me completely speechless.

"Do you know who said it? Nevermind it was probably all in my head." Do I tell her I was the one who said that?

"Yeah, it's probably all in your head, but if it helps you come back I would listen to it." She smiles back at me making me feel that much more guilty. I should've probably told her, but it's too late to say it now.

EMMA POINT OF VIEW
I feel like he's not telling me something, but at least he's being nice about this voice I'm hearing.

It was just all in my head, yet I feel like I don't know, I feel like it's not.

"Thank you Jacob for listening to me, but now I got to ask you something, and you got to answer me. Why were you feeling that way, the darkness surrounding you? Was it when your parents died? Snap, sorry I didn't mean to be too forward, sorry."

Too straight forward, but I have feeling it is. It was hard time for him same with me, and my parents.

"No its okay. Yeah, when my parents died it was...they were the light in my life, and to have that taken away from me just made me realize how dark my world came to be."

Wow, I wish the whole world saw this moment the moment you realize that a villain is not a villain after all.

Some part of me always knew that about him, but I wish the world knew that, mainly the heros.

"I'm just going to say it Jacob, you're really not a bad guy..."

He stops me right there. He moves forward until we're only inches apart showing a mischievous grin.

Okay, my mind going to explode if gets any closer.

Why am I suddenly nervous that he's this close to me? I shouldn't be.

"I've only shown you my good side. There's a completely different side of me you don't know." He stares me down, and I stare back except this time I can't focus on anything.

He suddenly backs up, and I finally snap back to reality.

I never felt this before do I have feelings...

NO! It was just too close for comfort that's all.

I never experienced this before...

And you'll never ever will experience it until you find the guy who's after you. You have no time for distractions.

You're absolutely right!

"Emma, you okay?" I looked up to see him smiling up to me that same grin on his face. I want to smack it off!

"Yeah, I'm fine. I'm just going to sleep awhile." I lay back down still keeping my eyes on him, he does the same.

"Okay, I'll stay here, they told me they'll come back with food."

He trusts them, which is completely fine with me, but I'm not fully convinced with them.

I sit back up suddenly alarmed making him more alarmed.

"What is it Emma?" He rushes to my side anxious to know what's wrong.

Why would he suddenly coming rushing to my side, alarmed or not?

That's exactly why he would do it because you're alarmed, and getting him worried.

"No, it's nothing I just realized after all this time that my wound doesn't hurt." He starts laughing as he walks back to his chair, but I see a pain expression in his eyes almost as if he's sad.

Sad of what?

"Yeah, Zack did that. He has healing powers."

I'm sorry did he just say what I think he said?

"Zack as in Zack saved me. Why?" He shrugs his shoulders.

"In a perfect I would like to believe it was because his best friend asked him to do it, but we still got to watch our backs." He replies yawning loudly.

I guess he's tired too, yet now I feel wide awake.

"Hey you want to switch places. You must be exhausted." I get up, but as quick as lightning he's back at my side gently putting me back down.

"Trust me when I say you need it more than I do." He walks back to his chair leaning into one arm.

"No, I'm fine. You sleep here." I get up, and walk up to him, and sit in the chair next to him. Besides this is very comfy chair, the cushions on this chair may just be softer than the bed over there.

"I'm not taking it Emma, so you take it."

"I'm not going back there so you go besides when was the last time you've slept?" I asked looking at him dead serious.

He's an idiot if he doesn't sleep in that bed. He looks like he hasn't slept in twenty hours.

"I'm fine Em, just go." I watch as his eyes close, and stay that way.

I grab his hand suddenly feeling this electricity like feeling. He immediately wakes up, but his eyes say it all as they slowly start closing.

"Come on, let's go." Reluctantly he follows all the way to the bed, and falls down onto it. He gets comfortable everything looks good. I was about to go back when his hand suddenly grasp mine.

"Emma, promise me when your tired, and you want the bed you'll wake me up. Promise?" I start laughing. That's what he's worried about?

"If I want to sleep on the bed, I'll roll you off it." I smile my sweet smile. He smiles back, then immediately falls asleep his light snores fill the room.

I walk back to the chairs. I put Jacob's chair across from mine giving me leg room. I put my legs on the chair, and immediately fall to asleep.
