Grey Skies and Blue Eyes

Chapter Thirteen

WARNING! This chapter, as many of you have probably guessed, this is the chapter where Bella, and Evie by default, get attacked in Port Angeles. As much as I loved the Twilight series, I always wanted more action, so I will be changing things up a little in this chapter. Instead of nothing really happening to Bella and my OC, there will be some violence and, if things go the way I want, it will be slightly graphic. If you do not want to read this part of the chapter, then that is fine. I will place a warning before and after the scene in which the attack will take place just in case you don't want to read it. The fight scene is not incredibly important, so you may skip it, but please read the rest of the chapter to see the fallout and understand the relationship between the characters better. Thank you for reading this!

The drive to Port Angeles was rather short as Jessica's driving was, in one word, terrifying. It was obvious that Angela ignored the fear coursing through her by talking about Ben, the guy that finally asked her to the dance. Bella and Evie, however, were not bothering to hide their cowering forms in the slightest. Both of the sisters were shaking like a leaf, holding onto the other for dear life in the backseat. When they finally parked on the side of the road, in front of a frilly looking shop, Evie allowed herself to relax. Deciding it would be mean of her to drop to the pavement and start kissing the ground, she instead sent a silent prayer to every higher power she could think of. Upon entering the store, Evie realized she had been right in her analysis of the shop. It was definitely frilly. Pink frills, yellow frills, black frills, and don't forget the purple frills. Frills of all shapes and sizes, colors and textures. Evie had to hold back a groan, while Jessica and Angela both squealed like school girls.

After two hours, two hours, of pure torture, Bella finally stood up and announced her departure to the book store. Evie grinned happily, thanking her sister for her timing, and lead the smirking brunette out the door of the hideous shop. Practically skipping all the way to the book shop Bella had found online, Evie had to hold in a laugh when they finally saw it. "Channeling your inner hippie, Bells?" Bella grumbled something unintelligible and turned the other way. What they had hoped would be a reliable book shop turned out to be filled with dream catchers, spiritual dolls, and some kind of smelling salts that looked like pentagrams. Walking a ways down the main road, Evie just followed behind her lost sister, smiling the whole way. She would be happy as long as they didn't have to go back to that frilly shop ever again. When the crowd around them started thinning out, however, Evie felt herself begin to panic. They were lost in an unfamiliar city and daylight was running out. In a last ditch effort to rejoin civilization, Bella took a turn to the right and followed the road all the way down. When they reached the end, instead of finding people, like they wanted, they found nothing. There were rundown buildings all along the road and not a soul in sight.

"How about I lead now, eh?" Evie asked, covering her growing fear with a smirk. Turning to go back down the road they came from, Evie saw four men walking toward them, malicious smirks on their faces.

"Hey there, beautiful. Why don't you wait up?" The jeering men had Evie spinning around, taking Bella's hand in hers, and running as fast as her legs would allow in the other direction.

"Evie, what-" Bella started.

"Bella, just do me a favor and run, okay? Those men, those animals, aren't nice and they aren't just going to take our money." Bella's already pale face grew even paler. Evie took the first turn she found and almost screamed in frustration when it turned out to be a dead end alley. Making to turn back around, Evie kept in the shriek of fear that threatened to leave her when the four guys rounded the corner. Backing up slowly, Evie pushed Bella behind her before shoving her hand in her purse to take hold of the pepper spray.

WARNING! The attack scene begins here, so if you wish to skip it, keep going until you see the words "END SCENE".

"Look what we have here, boys. Fresh meat and it all ours for the taking," The guy in front said, an evil smile on his round, chubby face. The three guys surrounding him all cheered, their eyes flashing with lust and power. They kept moving forward as Evie and Bella moved back. When Evie felt Bella stop moving, she glanced behind her quickly to see that they were literally up against the wall. Snapping her head back to the front, Evie only had time to open her mouth to scream before two of the men grabbed her roughly. One of them held her arms behind her back, the other had one hand covering her mouth and one hand pulling her hair harshly back, forcing her to look into his dark eyes as he smiled wickedly.
