Three months later

In the time that had passed, Bella and Wolf grew close. She could practically read his mind now, and knew almost exactly when he was hungry. The giant canine no longer scared her, but she did find his determination to stay in this form a bit unnerving. Who knew a werewolf could even stay changed for so long?

Bella hadn't mentioned anything about her original time though, afraid of what might happen if she told him that. Though he refused to change into a human, she knew he could understand everything she said. He might think her insane and leave her alone. Bella knew it shouldn't matter to her, but the thought of Wolf leaving made her sick. So, she kept the secret to herself.

The forest seemed to stretch on forever, and Bella knew they must've passed at least three new ones in the past few weeks, but she couldn't be sure. Because they never went into town, for obvious reasons, and there was enough animals for Wolf to kill and her to cook the old fashioned way, Bella didn't even know if they were out of San Francisco yet!

She was pretty sure that, by the time she finished her mission, the war would not only be started in her time, but Edward might very well be dead! The thought brought an ache to her heart, and she firmly reminded herself that Seer promised her everything would work out. Well, at least as far as her turning into a halfa went anyways. The young, or rather old, girl hadn't said she would necessarily win the war she was to start.

She wondered how the girl was doing since she hadn't seen or heard from her since being sent to the past. Of course, she hadn't really expected visits, but she still wondered. Seer was the only one who knew the truth about her, and she sometimes craved to talk to someone about her own time. If Seer saw half as much as she claimed, and Bella didn't doubt she did, she could tell her how Edward and the rest of the Cullens, or the Quileute were doing.

Her wishing got her nowhere, however, as Seer never showed up. Eventually, Bella stopped wishing for the other girl to make an appearance, but she sometimes found herself slipping into the habit. For the most part, Wolf remained a good companion for her, and she didn't feel nearly as lonely as she was sure she might've had she been alone on this journey.
