Last Shot (Jacob Black) [3] COMPLETE

8. Doppelganger

~Jazmine~

I sit down on the couch and take my boots off. I slightly shake my hair our and set my boots beside the couch. Jake sits down before he lays his head in my lap. He smiles up at me and I smile back at him. I lean down and kiss him gently. He pulls me out from under him and sits me on top of him, my legs on either side of him. We kiss again, this time with force. His hands meet my hips and our lips move together. My hair surrounds us like a curtain. My arms rest on either side of his head. I slowly pull back and sit up and pull my shirt off before fluffing my hair slightly. He sits up and carries me to the bedroom. He sets me on the bed and takes his shirt off. I climb up onto my knees and pull him toward me before we kiss again. He smiles against my lips and I rest my forehead against his. I slide off the bed so that I'm standing in front of him. I wrap my arms around his neck and slightly stand on my toes before we kiss. We pull apart and he picks me up. We kiss again and my heart flutters. He turns around and sits down on the bed. I push him down and he flips us over. I smile before we kiss again. His hands slide up my arms and his fingers interlock with mine. We press our lips harder against each other and we both end up smiling.

"I love you." Jacob says.

"I love you." I reply before we kiss again. We slowly pull apart and I gaze into his eyes, mine turning to a glowing emerald green, a familiar shade for me now. He smirks down at me.

"What did I do to deserve someone as perfect as you?" He asks rhetorically.

"I'm not perfect." I state.

"But you are perfectly imperfect." He retorts leaning his face toward mine. We kiss yet again, his hands never leaving mine, nor did our lips ever part.

Two Weeks Later...

"Okay, what really happened?" I ask Danielle and Devonté placing my hands on the table.

"He got bit." Devonté replies. "Your code doesn't change that- and there was nothing we could do to go around it."

"Who bit him?" My eyes change to green.

"Whatever attacked you in the school, it wasn't alone, it has a pack. It was part of the pack that bit him." Danielle states.

"Do you know what they are?" I question.

"No, but his body is still in the Morgue. You might be able to tell, we couldn't." Devonté sighs.

"I'll look, I'll see what I can find." I state. They both nod. I nod and turn and walk out of the room and switch my eyes back. I grab the keys to my Impala and climb in. I start it up and pull out of the driveway. I drive toward the hospital and try not to think about anything else.

"J'espère que vous savez ce que vous faites petite fille." ( I hope you know what you are doing little girl.) Marie Jeanne randomly appears in the passenger seat, mirroring my clothing. I grip the wheel tighter.

"I know exactly what I'm doing, bitch." I state.

"Eh bien , amusez-vous alors, mais quand quelque chose va terriblement mal , ne dites pas que je ne vous ai pas prévenu." (Well, have fun then, but when something goes terribly wrong, don't say I didn't warn you.) With that she disappears as I pull into the hospital parking lot. I take a deep breath before getting out of the car. I lock the Impala and put my keys in my pocket. I walk to the front desk inside and flash a fake genuine smile.

"What can I do for you ma'am?" The nurse asks.

"I need into the morgue, to see a family member Kolon Ellwood." I reply. She nods.

"ID please." I hand her my ID and she nods again. She hands it back and smiles at me. "Right this way." She steps out from the desk and I follow her to an elevator. She presses a button labeled with an 'm' and the elevator shifts slightly before the door closes. The elevator goes down and the doors open back up. "Here you are, he's in B West, row 4 column D."

"Thanks." I flash another smile before stepping off of the elevator and walking toward where BWest is. The sound of my boots hitting the floor echoes as I walk through the cold morgue. I hug myself to try to warm myself up slightly. I glance at a sign that reads A West. I roll my eyes and keep walking. After I get about 50 yards I read the sign for B West. I turn and go to step into the part where the bodies are decked when the elevator dings. I look out of the corner of my eye and catch a glimpse of someone. I spin around to find nothing. I shake my head and turn back around and look for row 4 column D.

"Ne dites pas que je ne vous ai pas prévenu." I hear an arrow release and spin around and catch it before it hits my face. I drop the arrow and stare down the Doppelganger from Hell.

"Chienne!" I sneer. She smiles before she disappears completely. I pull open the drawer that Kolon is in. The bite looks like it's some wolf breed, it turn his head sideways, but the scratch on the back of his neck indicates Kanima. The wound from himself is normal- human I should say. I look at his legs, nothing from any other supernatural creature. I look at his face and make my eyes glow. Mercury. Chimera. I clench my jaw and make my eyes go back before closing the drawer and walking to the elevator angrily.
