A/N: Please do not say this chapter is unrealistic I know that already, I just randomly wrote it.

My hair was done in a unusual curls since my hair is always straight, I even had some make up on. And a black dress that went down to my knees, Today the theme was black, I feel extremely bad for Embry. I had phased once we got back from the party and ran, And I found Jess and called Embry in tears. Jess was killed, We don't know how.

I walked over to Embry, Who was standing by the door, With no movements. I touched his shoulder and he still didn't move "You ready?" I asked softly, Since Jess didn't have any family here and her mom is out of the country, We some how got a small funeral made.

Embry finally looked at me, His eyes seemed lifeless just so empty, It made my heartbreak just by looking at them "Why did it have to be her? Why Jess?" He asked, His voice sounded just as dead as his face looked right now, I cant even imange how he must feel, Yes I was heart broke when Jacob kissed Isabella but I didn't lose him like Embry lost Jess.

I hugged him, Though he didn't move his arms  to hug me back " I don't know, I would say things happen for a reason, But I cant think of a reason why anyone would want to kill Jess" I said keeping my voice soft and gentle, Though right now I wanted to cry probably less then Embry did but I still did.

"Mikayla, I loved her, Loved her more than anything. Not only was she my imprint, She was my everything" Embry whimpered slightly, It was getting harder and harder not to start crying. He finally hugged me back, I felt a tear hit my shoulder as he hugged me.

"And she loved you so much" I whispered, The tears now started for me as well "Come on, Lets go" I added still whispering, He nodded and pulled away from the hug. I followed him into the room, There were not many people there. Of course most of the pack was there, Expect for Leah and Jared who had patrol. And my mom, Who rushed down when she heard. But no one else could make it on the short notice.

My mom came hurrying over when we entered the room " I am terribly sorry Mikayla" She said, Its obvious she's been crying as well. Jess was like another daughter to her "Oh, Sweetie. Is this your boyfriend?" She asked looking over at Embry.

"No hes a great friend of mine, He was Jess' boyfriend." I said shaking my head quickly, I glanced at Embry and nodded slightly. He sighed and nodded back and walked up to the front "Have you met Jacob yet?" I asked, If she has it would save me the trouble of standing there while she commented on the two of us when I introduced them.

 "Oh,Yes I have he seems like a sweetheart, He is quite tall though." My mom said with a small laugh, I mentally sighed in relief, One less thing to do today.  Plus afterwards I have to practice, Sam actually agreed to this stupid battle, I hate it.

"He is my boyfriend, Not Embry." I said, Even thought I wanted to smile, I just couldn't " I am going to go check on Embry, Before he does something crazy" I said and gave her a quick hug, I walked over to Embry, Who was crying harder then he was earlier.

"Why did you have to leave me Jess?" Embry whimpered as he looked down at her lifeless body that laid in the coffin " I love you, I wanted to marry you. I cant breathe without you Jess"He said softly as tears fell down his face, And it broke my heart even more.

I grabbed a tissue and wiped one of the tears off his face "Embry, You don't have to fight in the battle. I don't even know if Sam will let you" I said and he looked at me, Which was slightly surprising. I thought he wouldn't move an inch from where he was standing.

"I have to and I want to" Embry said, I looked at him unconvinced " I cant just leave you guys to fight those leeches alone" He added as another tear from his eyes, He placed a hand on the cold face of Jess' body and his body trembled slightly, But he was trying so hard not to cry anymore or phase.

"Embry, Your imprint died, You are not mentally strong enough to fight. We will be just fine with one less, Seth, Colin and Brady have to stay out to since they are too young" I explain, Colin and Brady are only 13 and they phased, Completely unfair if you ask me, We are all phasing so young lately.

"I will be fine in the battle" Embry snapped which took me by surprised "Sorry, Just a little emotional." He sighed, and looked back at Jess " I want to kill whoever took her away from me" He whispered shutting his eyes  tightly, I couldn't blame him in I was in his shoes.

"I know" I said quietly, And gave him a quick hug.I felt a tear slide down my face as I looked down at Jess as well "Jess, I am so sorry I said I hated you. Now I would do anything to get you back, You are like my annoying older sister. And I miss you." I whispered in hopes no one else could hear it.

I felt a hand touch my shoulder, And squeeze it gently, I glanced back surprised to see Sam "May I talk to you for a minute?" Sam asked, I nodded quickly and wiped a tear from my face. I know I am not in trouble  because if I was he would of just told me to come talk to him.

"Yeah, Of course" I said finally and followed him outside, And once we were out there I faced him "So, what's up?" I asked casually, I haven't seen him most of the day. I bet he was uncomfortable with mom here, According to him and mom they haven't seen each other since he was 9 and they even said it was briefly.

"The battle is in twenty four hours, Which means we have to be ready." Sam began, I nodded "Edward is taking Bella up to the mountains where its safe from the battle" He continued,  I nodded slowly and raised a brow, I am not quite sure where he is going with his.

"Where are you going with this? I don't see how this effects me" I said with a slightly confused expressions "You know I hate Isabella, So I don't  get why knowing she will be taken up to the mountains will make me care about her any more or less" I added.

"The thing is Mikayla, They will smell her scent  and Edward's and know where she is hiding "Sam said slowly, I tilted my head slightly,Still confused "So, Jacob has to bring her up to hide her scent" He added almost as gently as possible.

I shut my eyes and took a deep breath to keep from shaking or shouting, I opened my eyes again "Oh." I said crossing my arms slightly "And about Seth wanting  to join the battle, How about me and him keep watch tonight, I can keep him out of trouble until the battle and when I have to leave he can tell that mind reading leech what's going on so he can tell Isabella." I suggested trying to seem that what he just told me  didn't affect me.

Sam thought for a moment "That could work, I am sure  Bella would like to know what is going on " Sam agreed "Why don't you go tell Seth that, I am sure he will be happy" He said,  I nodded and sighed slightly. I went back inside and let another tear fall, This is going to suck.
