Sara P.O.V
"So...what exactly are we doing?" I asked. We were all in the livening room; it was very wide you could throw a small party in here. Everyone (Except Nessie) was in here I was so nervous. Everyone was watching me, I was going to screw up and make a fool of myself, and they would all laugh at me ohhh I wish Jasper would do his.....ahhhhh thank you Jasper.
"Well everyone wanted to help you train" Carlisle said with a smile.
"But why?" I asked.
"Because the more the merrier" Esme said with a sweet smile.
"And think of it like this, if anything goes wrong there will be more people to help" Carmen said.
"And Bella is here" Edward said holding Bella's hand.
"If thing's get too dicey I’ll just put my shield up" Bella said.
"Ok so what do I do first?"
"Well first were going to see if we can cause your power to activate, once that happens I’ll be able to better tell how it works" Eleazar said.
"So what do I do?" I asked, I never had a power before. Why couldn't I become invisible?
"First were going to try and replicate what you were feeling when it was first activated" Carlisle said.
"How are you going to do that?" I asked a little guardedly.
"Nothing like that" Carlisle quickly said "Were going to have you focus on Emmett, Jasper will send some- Jasper? What’s wrong" Carlisle said looking at Jasper who was walking quickly over to Alice who had a dazed look on her face.
"Oh no" Edward said.
"What did you see?" he asked Alice.
"He's coming, the vampire who made Sara, he's coming with some vampires from Maria and there coming here to claim Sara" I said. "We need to warn the others" she said.
"What?" I said sounding fearful.
I hadn't thought about it much, I had tried not to. My transformation into a vampire had helped me to forget the memory, but know it all came rushing back. The beautiful man with the red eye's, him sinking his mouth onto my mother’s throat, him whispering how delicious my blood was for him.
"No" I said shaking badly.
"Some one catch her" Edward said quickly.
Before my knees could hit the ground Rose and Alice had a hold of me keeping me on my feet.
"Why? Why is he coming after me?" I asked my voice a whimper.
"Doe's he know of her gift?" Rose asked.
"No, he just wants her" Alice said "He can track others, all he need's is either a name or a face. He has met her so now he'll be able to track her were ever she goes, all he want's is to claim her as his mate he's infatuated with her" Alice said and I sobbed. This is a nightmare come true.
"He went to Maria" Edward said and I saw Jasper stiffen. "He promised to use his ability to help her find her enemies more easily if she would help him claim her."
"Maria wouldn't help him in some fight that doesn't involve her" Jasper said.
"No, she has ordered him to try and bring her back south, but he mustn’t do any harm to any of us. She doesn't want a war with either of our clans" Alice said.
"How long till he comes here?" Tanya asked.
"A few days, Maria wants him to help her find a few vampires for her first then she'll lend him some of her troops" Alice said.
"Oh god, oh god" I kept on muttering.
"Its ok" Rose soothed "We'll protect you" she said handing me over to Alice. Esme and Carmen came over to help comfort me.
"I say we kill him" Rose said savagely "The bastard killed on our land, and he mocked us right to our face the night he attacked Sara. If he comes here we should kill him and any cohorts he brings with him".
"Let's not get to drastic Rose" Carlisle said.
"Drastic!" I said so quickly "Drastic! He murdered my mother, that monster was going to kill me!" I shouted taking everybody by surprise "He deserves to die" I snarled.
For the first time in my life, I felt hate. Hate for one single person, a hate so powerful I would give anything to make him pay for the suffering he brought me. If it wasn't for him I would still be human. If it wasn't for him me and Embry would be together in La Push right now, if it wasn't for him I could have children and a real family, if it wasn't for him mom would still be alive and I could have a chance of making her love me. He must pay.
"Die" Rose snarled "He must die for his crimes" Rose said her normally golden eye's blackening.
"Ya" Emmett agreed his face contorted into a fierce smile.
"Maybe your right" Carlisle said his eyes darkened too.
All around the room eyes were turning black, only Bella's remained gold.
"That's my cue" she said.
One by one their eyes all returned to normal, they all looked surprised.
"Oh dear" Alice said, "Emmett hold her".
Emmett didn't ask twice. He lunged forward and rapped me in a tight bear hug lifting me off the ground "Let me go!" I growled.
"Easy tiny" he soothed.
"No he must die" I said my voice animalistic.
"I've never seen her like this" Rose said worried.
"She is pissed off." Kate said coming close to examine me and I hissed at her.
"The poor thing" Esme said covering her mouth.
"What just happened?" Garrett asked confused.
"Her power manifested" Eleazar said.
"I thought we were all supposed to get all lovy dovy?" Emmett asked.
"I was right her power does work on desire" Eleazar said "Before her desire was love and devotion, this time her desire was vengeance. She projected it out into us and her desire became our desire".
I couldn't comprehend what they were talking about. I was to far gone, my inner beast was taking over "Kill, kill, kill" I kept muttering.
Embry P.O.V
We were at the Cullens house. They had left it to us while they were away. I guess you could say I was babysitting right now. A whole bunch of the younger ones had come over to play Halo 3. Quill was there with me to keep an eye on the young ones and by young ones well…. The oldest wolf was 22, the youngest was 8. Ya right now I and Quill were babysitting a bunch of werewolves between the ages of 8 and 12. They had phased during the Volturi incident. While we were in a struggle for our live's they had been tucked in there beds with high fevers their parents mistook for a cold of some kind. Then next thing they know they phased. Of course the parents knew, hard not to notice when your little boy had turned into an overgrown monster. Because they were so young they had problems controlling their wolf one minute they were happy as can be, the next there angry because some one made fun of them then phasing trying to rip out the offenders throat.
They were all good kids. Many of their parents kind of just dumped them onto us. Preferring they spend as much time as possible out of their homes and with the rest of the pack, sad but true. So add turning into scary monster, plus being abandoned by your parents, and being very young and emotional....ya not the greatest job in the world.
We usually didn't have the time to look after them all. But Esme loving children like she does offer there home as wolf cub central. It had been rough at first; their first instinct was to kill the Cullens on sight. But after a while they got used to the smell and left them alone, unless they had one of their temper tantrums and phased. Luckily Jasper was always around to keep the peace. Those kids would kill you, I and Quill had plenty of old wound from one of the little monsters losing it and biting us.
"Hey Embry you want to play?" one of the kids asked.
"No thanks I’m fine" I smiled.
Naturally being older many of the kids’ heroe worshiped us older wolves. To them I and Quill was uncles, Seth was big brother, Jake was papa wolf, and Leah was mama wolf. Not being able to have her own kids still stung her, but she had found solace in taking these misfits under her wing. They both loved and feared her, she could be so sweet and tender to them, but if they stuck so much as one paw out of line she was known for her quick and ruthless punishments. They also adored her imprint Cain; they loved the cooler city kid. If Leah ever grounded them it would be Cain they would turn to for help because they knew he was her weakness.
"Where is Leah?" I asked Quill.
"With Cain" Quill said bitterly.
Quill wanted to be with Claire, but instead was stuck with the pups as we liked to call them until Leah and Cain showed up.
"You ok?" Quill asked.
"Never better" I muttered.
"At least she's allowed to come back"
"Unless something happens with her power then she has to leave, bullshit" I muttered "It's like no one likes her".
"I like her" one of the pups by the name of Alex said.
Alex was nine years old but he looked older. It was weird seeing a bunch of young teens act and talk like they were prepubescent.
"I think she's pretty" he went on.
"Thanks Alex" I said.
"Embry has the hots for her" one of the other kids said.
"Embry and Sara sitting in a tree S-U-C-K-I-N-G" another sang.
"Watch it" I snarled but they only laughed.
"Keep it up and I’ll tell Leah" I said and they all shut up.
"Low blow dude" Quill chuckled.
Sara P.O.V
I realized I was on the ground. I had no idea how I had gotten there, I remembered Emmett holding me in a bear hug so how did I get here?
I looked to my right and saw Edward had my arm pinned to the floor. I looked to my left and saw Jasper, Emmett and Eleazar were holding my legs, what happened?
"You lost control" Edward answered.
"I lost control?"
"You’re a newborn, anger can cause you to loose control and you did" Jasper said.
"What?" I said
"You started to loose control so we had Emmett hold you and well you didn't like that much" Eleazar said with a grin.
"Oh my god!" I said sitting up. In my haste I forgot of my new strength and when I sat up poor Edward and Jasper went flying landing on the floor.
"Sorry" I said sheepishly. Emmett let out a booming laugh and I turned to him "I didn't hurt you did I?" I asked.
"A little thing like you? Hurt me?" he laughed.
"Actually you beat the crap out of him" Jasper said dusting himself off.
Emmett shot him a look that promised pay back.
"I beat Emmett? But how he's so...big and I’m a stick" I asked.
"You’re a newborn, newborns are outragesly strong because of the amount of blood they have in their system. In a year the blood will be fully absorbed and your strength will diminish" Carlisle explained.
"It was hilarious" Alice laughed "You broke out of his hold then picked him up spun him around and you tossed him through the wall" she said pointing to the once solid wall that I had tossed Emmett through.
"Oh I’m so sorry" I said apologizing covering my face in shame "I'll pay for it I have money" I said to Carmen. I felt bad they let me in there home and I start to wreck it, how shameful.
"It's fine" Carmen said with a smile "These things happen".
"I'm sorry I threw you through a wall" I apologized to Emmett.
"No problem little sister" he said giving me a hug. Something about little sister made my heart soar "But I must insist on a rematch later, I have my pride" he said with a laugh.
"You mean the same pride you had before you were beaten by Bella?" Edward said with a smile.
"Are you going to try and ambush her to?" Jasper teased.
"I didn't try ambushing" Emmett said indignantly.
"Yes you did, you climbed on the ceiling and waited for her to pass you then you pounced on her and she still beat you" Edward said.
"It wasn't ambushing it was a well timed strategic move" Emmett said dignity.
"And I still beat you" Bella said with a grin.
"What are we going to do about the man who bit me?" I asked remembering the source of my rage.
"Well his ability to track you makes it impossible to hide you, and if what Alice says is true we have two days to prepare for his arrival" Carlisle said.
"How many will Maria give him?" Jasper asked.
"She keep's changing her mind. She doesn't want to send too many and make it look like she's declaring a war, but she wants to send enough to get the job done. Right now she's thinking between 5 to 8 with him" Alice said.
"Nine of them Thirteen of us taking out Nessie and Sara, we can take em" Kate said.
"Aren’t they supposed to not start a fight with us?" Esme said.
"There not but this vampire will do what ever it takes to get to her" Alice said.
"And knowing how Maria trains her vampires, the one's helping him will be highly aggressive" Jasper said.
"We could call Embry" I said suddenly, I wished I hadn't because now everybody was looking at me "I mean...um...well he said that the wolves were expert vampire killers so I thought maybe Jake and some of the wolves could come up and lend a hand...or paw" I said awkwardly.
"That's a pretty good idea" Carlisle said.
"If things get out of hand then there help would help end things quickly and theory" Eleazar said.
"Great, there goes our wolf free vacation" Rose muttered.
"I'll give them a call right now, they should be keeping an eye on our house" Carlisle said.
"You let a bunch of adolescent wolves take care your house?" Carmen asked looking startled.
"Don't worry the boys are very well behaved" Esme said with a smile.
Embry P.O.V
"Don't you dare throw that!" I shouted.
For some crazy idea some of the pups had decided to flay indoor football. Quill was in the kitchen trying to clean the mess there, where they had tried to make a batch of pizza. I was chasing the little monsters trying to get the ball from them when a thunderous voice sounded throughout the house,
"WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?" Leah screamed thank god she's here....never thought I would say that.
All the pups froze where they stood. Leah and Cain where standing in the doorway. Cain looked a little amused Leah looked wrathful and the pups cowered behind me. I noticed Able Cain's twin brother was here as well. Like Cain he had an amused expression to. He knew all about the wolves, him and Cain where tighter then a chain. You couldn't pry them apart with a crowbar. When Leah imprinted she had to let able in on the secret to.
"Finally some order" Quill said coming in covered in food.
"I leave you alone for an hour, one hour and the whole place goes to hell?" she said looking stunned. "You can fight vampires in a bloody horrific fight yet you can't handle a bunch of kids?"
"Well there your problem now" Quill said quickly walking upstairs to wash "Good luck in the kitchen" he called.
Leah quickly ran into the kitchen and let out a scream and came running back out "You" she said pointing to the cowering pups, "All of you off your asses and get cleaning that kitchen!" she roared and they scattered to the kitchen "And I want to see my reflection on those counters" she called she rubbed her head and turned to me "Why did I want kids?" she asked me.
"They aren’t yours" I reminded her.
"Might as well be" she said "Somebody's got to take care of them because their parents sure as hell won't!"
"How doe's it feel to have kids at such a tender age Cain?" I asked him with a sly smile.
He smiled himself and put an arm around Leah's shoulder.
"Well it seems no matter how hard I try I can't seem to get her pregnant" he said putting extra emphasis on hard.
Leah blushed. Cain was the only one who made her speechless.
"I told you Cain I can't have kids"
"Doesn't mean we can't try even harder" he whispered in her ear.
"Ewww, my virgin ears" I said putting my hands on the side of my head.
"You should here Seth and Lil" Cain said shuddering, "The things he says to her, I almost forget their making love, not war"
"Speaking of vile and disgusting things how long are the leeches going to be gone?" Leah asked
"A week why?"
"Oh come on, we have this big ass mansion all to ourselves in the middle of nowhere were we can be as wolfy as we want" Leah grinned "I say we throw ourselves a little party"
"What?! We can't do that" I said quickly images of the Cullens coming home to a demolished smoldering wreck were heavy in my mind.
"They our home is your home and they didn't say anything about not having a party. Besides they owe us, all the times we risked our necks trying to protect them and Swan they can give us this" she said.
"Leah maybe we shouldn't have it here?" Cain said.
"Where else then? First beach? Please been there down that this is a golden opertunity how many wolves can say they had a party in the house of our sworn enemies it would be a new record"
"There not our enemies anymore" I said
"You know what I mean" she said "Come on Embry after everything that's happend in the last couple of month's it would be good for our pack to all just hang out, play some games, he'll we'll even bring the pups and imprints" she said excitedly.
"Ya right that would be fun" Able said sarcastically "Having a party with a bunch of adolescent mutants" that Able such a hoot.
"There will be beer" Leah said
"I'm in!" Able said quickly raising his hand.
"Who said you would be invited" Leah said sharply "Imprints and mutants only" she said with a nasty grin.
"Bitch" he said
"Woof, woof" she said.
Just then the phone rang which was unusual.
"I'll get it" I said going to grab the phone "Hello?" I asked.
"Embry its Carlisle"
"What's wrong?" I asked
"I need to speak to Jake, the vampire that attacked Sara will be here soon and he's not coming alone"
Sara P.O.V
Carisle got of the phone "Embry is on his way right now, he told Leah and she'll tell Jake as soon as possible".
"Embry's coming here?" I asked.
"Yes, he wanted to be with you as soon as he learned you were in danger" he said.
"Oh" I said looking away a smile playing on my face.
"We've never hosted a shape-shifter before" Carmen mused, "Will we need to buy food?"
"Oh yes" Esme said smiling.
Jake P.O.V
I was at my fathers. It had been a while since I had come to see him. I knew he was lonely after I technically moved in to the Cullens, and Rachel moved in with Paul. Since Nessie was in Alaska and there was no pack buisnes to attend to I decided a nice peaceful father son hour was good.
What I didn't know was that my sister Rachel was already there talking with dad. Rachel and me hadn't been on good terms for a while now, ever since I left Sam's pack and went to the Cullens and imprinted on Nessie things had become strained. I think Paul had a bad influence on her; she was as anti-Cullen as he was. She was also pissed about how I formed my own pack and how close we were to the Cullens and how I’m causing stress on the tribe and dad because he's an elder and has to be peace maker when me and Sam can't see eye to eye. She actually wants me to quit being an Alpha and rejoin with Sam. Like it was something that could be turned off.
She was especially pissed at me because of the fight me and the others had earlier with Paul not that it was my fault Paul was a dick. I walked in to dad's and saw him and her talking and the second she laid eye's on me her normally friendly face turned into a scowl.
It was downhill from there and before anyone knew it we were arguing about everything.
"You didn't have to start a fight Jake" she said.
"Me? It was Embry. And if it wasn't for Paul being such a prick as usual then it wouldn't have happened"
"If you had just done what you were told things wouldn't be as bad as they are!"
"Oh so it's my fault? Well in case you forgot Sam wanted me to kill an innocent person!" I shouted at her "What would have been better Rach having a sepretist for a brother, or a murderer?" She said nothing her mouth opened and closed trying to find something to say. I should have stopped but all the crap me and mine had been receiving ever since that day of the split had put a rage in me, and to have my own sister be one of the people to throw that in my face. "Did it ever cross your mind Rachel that you came this close to living with a murderer" I said nastily and her face got a shocked look on her face "Oh bet that never crossed your mind huh? But hey Sam is alllllways right and Paul did imprint on you so maybe cold blooded murder is alright then".
"How dare you!" she screamed her face turning red, "You risked us all Jake. You didn't know what that thing in her would be and you protected it, all because of your obsession with Bella" she said pointing her finger at me "Don't act like your Mr. perfect Jake if it had been anyone else you would have done it!"
"Oh so that makes it ok?" I asked "She would have just been collateral damage right?"
"We had no idea what was in her, how did we know it wasn't something that the Cullens couldn't handle?"
"A baby?”
"Their not human Jake!" she shouted
"Neither are we!" I shouted back
"At least we’re alive!"
Before I could shout something back dad beat me to it.
"ENOUGH!" We both turned to look at him stunned; it had been a long time since we had heard him shout. "I will not have this talk in my house" he said sternly, "To long has it been since my children have been under the same roof as me, I will not have it ruined by such hateful words" he looked at both with narrowed eyes, "I care not what issues you have with each other but that sort of talk will not be tolerated in my house."
"Sorry dad" we said.
He sighed and ran his hand through his hair "Please it has been so long since it was just the three of us, we have so little time in our lives for each other please let's just enjoy the time we have with each other" he begged his voice breaking a little.
I felt guilty and from Rachel’s expression so did she, dad had been through so much lately, what with the pack and me and Rachel being at each others throats. "Let's just sit down and talk, Rach can make her steak and-"
My phone started to ring and I checked the caller I.D and saw it was Leah "I need to take this" I said to dad and he nodded in understanding. "What’s up?"
"Jake Carlisle called" Leah said.
"What happened?" I asked my thoughts immediately to Nessie.
"The leech that turned Sara is coming back for her and he's not coming alone"
"How did he find her?"
"Apparently he's got some freaky ass power"
"Damn it, where are you?"
"The Cullens with the pups, Quill is still here but Embry already left"
"He what?"
"As soon as he heard Sara was in danger he took off like a bat out of hell to Alaska"
I knew the only reason Carlisle would be calling was because the leech wasn't comeing alone "How many are coming with the leech?"
"Don't know, enough that requires help though"
"Alright you, me, and Quill are going to Alaska. I'll call Nathan and have him hold down the fort while we're gone"
"Yippe Alaska here we come…" she said sarcastically hanging up, she was just as rude on the phone as she was off. At least say good by.
"I have to go." I said turning to my father. I winced when I saw the sadness in his eye's he had been looking forward to some family time.
"The Cullens call and you come running now? Is that how things are Jake?" Rachel asked angrily.
"The leech that attacked Sara is coming for her and he's not alone" I said to dad ignoring Rachel, "Embry already left and I’m not going to let him and Nessie be put in danger." I told him.
"It's ok Jake do what you must, this can wait." he said.
I bent down and gave him a hug; I kissed him on the head. As soon as I got back I would send as much time with him as I could. As I turned to leave Rachel called out,
"So that's how it is huh Jake? I guess if anything happens to us we can depend on you, until the Cullens are in trouble"
"Rachel" my dad chastised.
I ignored her and kept walking. I didn't have time to explain it wasn't the Cullens it was Nessie. But her words did leave me unsettled, could my human family really count on me if something was wrong with Nessie? I didn't have the answer.
