Just Imagine

Chapter Three

“E!” Said Emily as Erin walked into the house, Itachi on her head.

Erin gave a weak smile “Hey Aunt Em.”

Emily blinked, then sighed. “Ok. What’s wrong?” She said with a black stare at Erin.

“Na- what do ya mean?” Said Erin her eye looking off to the side so she wasn’t looking at Emily anymore.

Emily put her hands on her hips and gave Erin a stern look. “You know what I mean, Erin Keely Jashin.”

Erin flinched as her aunt used her whole name.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………

The oven’s timer went off and Erin grabbed the brownies and placed them on the counter.
“So… you know then.” Said Emily as she watched Erin poke the brownies with a toothpick to make sure they were done.

“Un… Wh- What if when…if they fin’ out they-”

“Don’t!” Said Emily throwing up her hands before walking over to Erin and pulling her into a gentle hug. “I promise they won’t do anything.”

“Arigoto, Aunt Em.”

“I SMELL FOOOOOD!!!!”

Embry boomed as he and the others walked into the kitchen shocking Erin and as she spun around to face them her bangs showed her left eye before she noticed and covered it again.

“……………”

The others stood in silence. They of course had noticed Erin’s scar running through her left blind eye.

“Ummm.”

“Jacob!” Said Sam turning to him. The others turned too, and seeing Jacob shaking madly, Embry and Sam grabbed him before forcing him outside. After he had been pulled outside and the house had gone quiet Erin pulled her bands over her left eye and said

“So, Anyone hungry?”


…………………………………………………………………………………………………………

“How!?!”

“When!?!”

“Why!?!”

Those thoughts ran through Jacobs’s head as the heat ran through his body and before he knew it his clothes ripped and he phased.

“Dude! Calm down!” Said Embry as he to had phased.

‘Why hadn’t Jacob been there!?’

‘Who would do something to such a beautiful, fragile girl?’

‘When had it happened?

'How long has she had to suffer with it?’

“Jacob!” Sam’s voice shouted through the raging angry and guilty thoughts.

“Someone hurt her!” Jacob growled turning to Sam and Embry.

“I know but you have to calm down!”

“Why!? I should have been there! I-”

“Well! You weren’t there!” Said Embry his wolf form letting out a growl “So, stop acting like it’s the end of the world!”

Jacob growled and took a step towards Embry before Sam stood in front of him and told Embry to go get Jacob some clothes for when he phased back. After shooting Jacob one more look Embry phased back and put on his pants before walking back to the house.
“I know your worried and angry Jacob but you have to calm down!” Said Sam. “You could have hurt Erin!” Jacob froze as Sam’s words sunk in.

‘Crap!’ He thought not only had he almost phased in front of Erin but he also let the imprint get to him. He had been trying so hard to fight the imprint. He didn’t want to forget Bella. Yeah he was still mad that she became a bloodsucker but there was still a part of him that wanted to have her back with him, even though she was now his enemy.

Sam sighed at Jacobs’s thoughts.
“I know you’re still upset but you can’t fight an imprint Jacob.”

Embry came back with a pair of pants and throw them at Jacob who went behind a tree and phased back before putting the jeans on.

“You better get back before the foods gone. Erin promised she would tell us what happened after eating.”

Sam, Embry and Jacob walked back into the house everyone acting like nothing had happened.

Erin sighed as she sucked on a gobstopper and stroked Itachi’s fur in rhythmic motions.
“Ok. So, ya’ll know ah moved ‘ere ‘cause of ‘ome prob’s right?”

The pack nodded.

“Right. Well one of those problems was ma mom’s and dad’s mur- …death.”

Jacob went rigid and started at Erin with wide eyes.

“See ma fathers… job got ‘im a few enemies.” Erin swallowed her gobstopper and Emily put a hand on her shoulder. “Anyway, a little while back, ‘bout half a year ago we started ta get letter’s and threats. It wasn’t much but… but it got worse. A couple months back ah was comin’ ‘ome from school an’ when ah got inside … it was so quiet.”


…………………………………………………………………………………………………………

“Mom! Dad! Ah ‘ome!” Said Erin as she walked inside her house and put her backpack down near the door.

“Mom? …Dad?” Her eyebrows furrowed, as she received no answer. The headphones around her neck softly played ‘30 minutes’ by T.A.T.U. as she walked to her living room and she gave a small shriek her hand flying to cover her mouth as her eyes took in the picture before her.

Her mother with long black hair usually so silky and smooth was knotted and covered in blood. Her eyes once a calming ice blue were now glazed over and wide in fear and shock.
Her slim and small body was on the floor surrounded by her own blood. Her once lightly tanned skin now splattered in red.

Her father was sitting in his brown armchair and would have looked peaceful had it not been the blood pouring out of his mouth. His bright red hair the same color that now covered his and her mothers’ bodies. His gentle storm gray eyes now closed looking as though he had been only napping.

Erin’s eyes filled with tears and she froze as a voice spoke.

“Ahhh. My sweet, sweet Erin.”

Erin spun around only to come face to face with a man even paler then her father with spiky brown hair and blood red eyes. A smile that was much to evil to really be a smile grew on his face as her eyes filled with terror.

“Wha- Naze?… NAZE?!?!” She screamed before she was shot back into the wall. The man held her hands against the wall above her head and his lower body kept her pined to the wall. His forehead felt like ice as he placed it on her own warmer forehead and pierced her eyes with his own. His breath wafted over her face and although would normal smell sweet.

There was no fouler smell on earth then the mans breath at that moment.

“Now, now Erin. No screaming. We don’t want anyone to ruining our fun, yeah?”

A few tears spilt from Erin’s eyes.

He only chuckled and licked them away, his tongue leaving a cold trail along her cheeks. As more tears fell from Erins eyes.

“You want to know why, yeah?” He asked as his free hand traced over her cheekbones.
Erin only gave a small whimper.

He chuckled again. “You see. Those notes weren’t jokes, hun.” He licked his lips. “But your father didn’t believe us.” His thumb pressed just above her eyebrow making his incredible sharp nail dig into her skin.

Erin’s eyes widened and she tried to break free only to have him growl and bare his teeth at her, making her freeze. His thumb trailed lower bringing a trail of blood and making Erin give another small whine. “So, I came and what a surprise, daddy dearest was just taking a nap.” His smirk grew as the thumb reached the top of her eye. “What a simple kill.” Erin flinched as his nail dug deeper. “For someone who was said to be sooo… strong.” His nail started digging into her eye and down making Erin scream and try to trash around again. Not taking notice as Skillet’s ‘Falling Inside the Black’ started to play from her headphones.

“Hmmm.” He moaned into Erin’s ear and the thumb moved down more now near the middle of her eye, blood pouring down the left side of her face and dripping onto the carpet. “Your blood smells so goood. Not at all like your mothers, yeah?” He finally stopped near the top of her cheek.


Don't leave me alone
Cause I barely see at all
Don't leave me alone, I'm
Falling in the black
Slipping through the cracks
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
Dreaming of the way it used to be
Can you hear me?
Falling in the black
Slipping through the cracks
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
Falling inside the black
Falling inside falling inside the black


“I’ll see you again, hun.” Said the man softly kissing her forehead as though saying goodbye to a loved one rather then one you just finished torturing.

‘How Ironic’ was the last though that ran through Erin’s head as sirens sounded outside of her house and the pale man disappeared and Erin crumpled to the ground, fainting from lack of blood and shock.


…………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Of course, Erin left out the ice-cold feel of the mans skin, and said he it was a knife rather then his nail that scared her.

The pack stayed silent each unsure what to say or do.

“So um… that’s it. Ah’m goin’ ta go ta bed. See ya’ll in the mornin’.”
