Found (PJO/ Twilight Crossover)

30. Invitation

Little announcement here. I have an excuse for taking so long I have been doing research on the next fic I'm gonna write. Actually, after this, I'm going to write a short fic than a really long Harry Potter one that I have been thinking about doing for forever.

"JACOB" I heard dad yell after him.

I ran back into the room and saw Bella and Edward's wedding invitation.  I rush past dad and to the door just in time to see him shift and run off.

I shifted too not even bothering with my clothes just trying to catch up to him. I hoped that that mailman had left already in a small part of my mind.

I had chased after him for a good hour before I lost him over the border to Canada. I couldn't tell which way he went so I turned back home so I could at least tell dad and the pack what happened.

Jacob ran away two weeks ago.

Sam let him go knowing he needed time to process everything but that hasn't stopped Aurora from running after him every chance she gets. She only goes for a day or two at a time because she doesn't want to leave her dad alone for too long. She also started helping Cheif Swann put up missing posters in the city even though she knows it's pointless but she says she doesn't want the Cheif to think they don't care. Between all that she has been absolutely exhausted all the time.

Today was one of the rare days I actually got her outside doing something that didn't have anything to do with Jake. She hasn't even seen Bella and though I don't particularly like leech-lover even that would help. I had to guilt her into checking on her training ground saying that she shouldn't just neglect it. 

"See everything fine, just how I left it," She said walking around the space and kicking a few stray twigs away.

"Isn't there something else you want to do? Maybe do some crazy practice or something" I pleaded trying to get her to do something normal again.

"I don't have time for this. I have to make dinner then I'm heading back out to look for Jake again" She was already making her way out of the clearing.

I stopped her by grabbing her arm just enough to make her look back at me. "Do you really think he wants to be found?" I tried to reason with her "It's been two weeks, Rose" I should not have said that. As soon as the name was said she ripped her arm from my grasp and was about to start yelling when something flew into the tree behind us.

It was an arrow. There was a silver arrow embedded in the tree that most have just missed my head by an inch. I scanned the forest but couldn't see anything even with the wolf vision. Aurora seemed to be more focused on the arrow itself though. She must have realized something because she started kneeling and pulling me down with her.

"Lady Artemis is that you who has graced us with your presence," Aurora asked into the forest with a sincerity that you usually don't hear with those words. 

There was no answer and just when I was about to stand again a voice called back.

"I'm not a goddess but I am older than you," The voice said.

"For gods sake you had me worried" Aurora yelled back, standing up. I guess it wasn't this Artemis person.

"Why won't you let me have my fun" The voice answered finally coming forward. It was a girl who couldn't have been older than sixteen. She wore some sort of crown almost in her spiky black hair and carried a silver bow. She was smiling at Aurora but was glaring at me from the side.
