Chapter 11
Fusedtwilight: Thanks to my beta animegirlkiki, I saw New moon awesome! that’s all I can say. Hope you all had a good thanksgiving. And now on with the show!
Sam POV

I left Sarah with Emily. I picked Quil up from the station and we drove to the hospital. Charlie was there waiting there for us, he was talking to the doctors about Billy’s and Ellen’s condition and the price of the bill. Rachel and Paul were there as well.
"How is he?" I asked.
"He’s in a coma," Rachel said her face in tears. "He got banged up pretty bad, they don’t know when he will wake up."
Paul hugged her and she began to cry into his shoulder. I felt sympathy for Rachel. First her mom died in a car accident now her dad is in a coma. Maybe Jake should stay out of the garage, the Black family seemed to have bad luck with cars.
"What about Ellen?" I asked.
"She is awake but she is heavily sedated. She wants to see you though." Paul said.
"Me? Why me?" I asked surprised.
"She is real adamant, won’t sleep until the two of you talk."
"Alright I’ll got talk to her," I said.
"We should call Jake and let him know." Rachel said.
"No, Jake has his hands full already, telling him of Billy will distract him. He is in enemy territory and needs to focus on that."
"But he is his father." Rachel argued.
"I know Rach, but we can’t make him worry over Billy when Leah and Embry need him right now."
"Your right," she scowled. "Damn it this is just so...fucked!"
A nurse scowled at her use of language, but moved on to go do her job.
"It’s okay babe." Paul said hugging her close to him.
I left Quil with them to keep them company. But I wasn’t expecting them to talk much. Quil had been real quiet on the way over. The evil undead leech really fucked him over worse then anyone else. The thought of living a life as an accused child molester and Claire moving away was weighing heavily on him.
Paul didn’t know what the leech told us when she possessed him. Why would we tell him the leech tried to make him rape Rachel? It would only upset him over something that never happened. It was one of those things you left alone. If they found out they found out, if they didn’t they didn’t.
I walked over to Ellen’s door and knocked. It opened and the doctor peeked through the crack.
"Are you Sam Uley?"
"Yes."
"Thank God," he said opening the door. "She refuses to be put under unless she speaks to you first."
I wondered what she wanted? I haven’t really ever spoken to Ellen before. It was sure to be awkward seeing how she slept with my father. It wasn’t her fault I know, my dad seduced and lied to her. But now that I know that it was him that fathered Embry I can’t help but fell uneasy around her. Stupid I know.
The Doctor ushered me in. I went over to her and winced. Half her face was covered in light burn marks from where the bag exploded. Her nose was broken and her left eye was swollen shut. Her right arm was in a cast and she was covered in scratches all over her face.
She opened her good eye and looked at me.
"Sam?" she asked her voice sounded horse.
"It’s me Ellen," I said holding her hand to comfort her.
The Doctor moved to her I.V bag and inserted a needle. "No!" Ellen said moving to stop him but whimpered in pain.
"I’m sorry Miss. Call but your going to have to make this brief. You need to rest." He looked at me sternly. "You have a few moments so make it quick."
He left us, closing the door behind him. "Sam, listen I have to tell you we almost hit someone, someone was on the road, that’s what made us crash."
"What?" I asked.
"And I think…I...think." he words were becoming groggy.
"Ellen come on tell me, you think what?"
Ellen blinked at me her eyes unfocused. "He looked….like one…of…u…but he had…yellow…eyes…so…bright…glowed…in..dark." her eyes closed and her breathing evened out. She was asleep.
A man in the middle of the road with yellow eyes who looked Quileute? Or rather American Indian. I cannot think who it might be. No one in the pack, neither pack had yellow eyes.
Call it a gut feeling but I think Jake and the others left at a bad time.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unknown POV
I wiped my mouth as I stared at the two bodies in front of me.

I had found two campers, a couple coming to experience the joys of the outdoors as their ancestors once did. But now they lay dead. I had hoped I was in control of my beast enough to spare them. I was wrong.
I should have seen it coming but even I am not omniscient. Even I can’t see everything at once. That was what was frustrating with my power. I knew this would end in either failure or success. It wasn’t until I acted that the path was chosen. I thought I had the will to resist killing them. I was wrong.
I feel anger now, I saw the what if. What if I had been successful? They would have both become like me. I snarled at the unseen vision. Tempting me with it’s promise of what could have been.
I breathed in and out. To control the beast and to reign in my power. It took me many years to build the shields that keep the power from over whelming my mind. But anger or loss of concentration can cause those shields to weaken. I turned and left the bodies. When the humans found them the animals in the area would have already had their fill of the remains. The local wildlife would be blamed, no suspicions would be aroused.
I felt a disturbance. I lowered the shields and the world exploded in my mind. The layer that separates us from time peeled back for me and I saw the many seeds that are waiting to bloom. I focused, looking for decisions that would intersect with my own.
I saw the other Alpha Sam. He knew of my existence. The female from the truck told him about me. He would make inquires amongst his tribe, not knowing what it would lead him to.
Me.
I had time to exact my plan before he would seek me out though. I raised my shields and decided to hunt some moose. Hopefully if I sated myself before the next attempt would be more successful.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Leah POV
We followed the Makahs through the woods. This Merck was a hermit apparently living by himself deep in the woods. We gave Embry another shot to keep him docile.
Jake and Chris carried him and he spent half his time switching between himself and Tessa.
"Filthy…mongrels I’ll…kill you all!"
"Get…ready…bitch…going…hell."
"Does he do that a lot?" Stark asked glancing at Embry.
"He’s possessed, what did you expect?" Jake asked.
"You are the other Alpha from La Push? Jacob Black right?" Stark asked.
"Yes."
"If we have time I would like to sit down and talk with you, I would like to maybe exchange stories of our packs and go over how the other runs their pack. I have never met another pack leader from another tribe."
Jake seemed to think about it. "If we have time, we would like to be gone as soon as possible. The spirit has done much damage to our home and we would like to get back to help smooth things out."
That was a good way of saying. ’We don’t want to be around you pricks because we don’t trust you.’ Without implying anything.
Stark smiled. "Yes we heard of your friend Quil, I am sorry the spirit hurt him so badly. Fear not, Merck has exorcised many spirits, we will have this leech back to hell soon."
"Best be careful he doesn’t accidentally banish the wrong leech." one of the Makah wolves said. His friends laughed at the joke.
Bella continued to walk unphased by their rude comments. "Chest waxier says what?" she said quickly.
"What?" the wolf asked.
"Exactly," Bella smiled.
It was our turn to laugh at the Makah wolf. He snarled at Bella sounding more wolf then human.
"Enough!" Stark snapped.
The wolf instantly backed down, but he kept on glaring at Bella. I leaned over to her. "Nice one." I smiled.
"Emmett has been teaching me how to talk trash. He thinks I need how to be both physically and verbally abusive."
"He still sore about you beating him all those times?" I asked.
"Not any more, he finally beat me at wrestling a few weeks ago, I am no longer a new born so I can say good bye to my super strength. Emmett thinks if I can’t fight I should be able to intimidate me opponents at least."
"Your missing being able to kick his ass aren’t you?"
"Oh yeah."
Kouga made a noise of surprise. He stopped walking and stared in surprise ahead of us. "So many." he whispered.
"Kouga?" Chris asked.
"You sense them don’t you Kouga?" Stark asked.
"Where did they all come from?" Kouga asked Stark.
"The phasing has continued sense you have left. The elders believe it to be a sign of favor to the tribe."
"What are you talking about?" I asked.
"You’ll soon see."
After another half hour of walking we finally got to Merck’s house. It was a rather small house. It looked like it had been built over a century ago. There was a chair on the porch that was worn and beaten looking. There was a large garden next to the house. A sweet scent of flowers was blowing from the garden.
As much as I wanted to go and examine the garden all the wolves at the house drew my attention. There were dozens of them. More then what I remembered the Makahs telling us there were.
"My God!" Chris and his family gasped.
"Yes, those Italian vampires who came through last year caused quiet the boom in the wolf population." Stark said.
"How many?" Jake asked.
"Including Chris and his clan? Eighty six," Stark said.
So subtract Chris and his clan that’s seventy-six. Shit! They out number us so bad. At least we have the Cullens and their allies to help us in case the fuckers decide to pick a fight.
Kouga was rubbing his arms up and down over and over again like a kid on the night before Christmas. I can’t imagine how he was feeling. To my knowledge he has never been around so many wolves. But I wonder why he was fidgety like this the night we met with his tribe?
"Are you okay Kouga?" I asked.
"So many wolves, their not even trying to hide their power!"
"Can you make it through?" I asked.
"Yeah, it’s just…intoxicating, all this power in the air, makes it hard to breath."
I couldn’t feel a damn thing. Which was good because I was already nervous enough. Since they had spotted us the Makah wolves were looking at us like…well…wolves. They watched us move with looks on their faces, wondering if we were predator or prey. I had seen Chris and his family have the same look in their eyes as well. With them it was unnerving as hell, with dozens of looks like that is was fucking scary.
The humans who know our secret say there is something wolfish about us. But just by watching the Makah’s I realized we had shit on them. Their faces, the way they moved, the way the watched you. You would always think wolf. These guys must have a tougher time then we do being around humans. We can be around humans better then the Cullen’s. But these guys would stick out like a bleeding sore thumb.
I noticed some of them were staring at Bella with looks that clearly said prey. Some were even bearing their teeth at her. I wrapped a hand around her waist and she gasped in surprise. This was the first time I ever physically touched her…and I wasn’t trying to punch her.
We weren’t friends. We were too different to be close friends. She in my opinion was to submissive and clingy to Edward. But seeing how I didn’t have room to talk about being clingy I couldn’t bitch to much. No we would not be friends, we would be…more then acquaintances…allies. Yeah, allies that will work.
I wanted to show these freaks that to mess with her was to mess with us. We were not friends. But she had helped me during my pregnancy and our parents were (shudder) bumping uglys. I knew because Charlie’s scent was all over mom. One of the down sides of having enhanced senses. Me and Seth never said anything to her about it though. It was embarrassing enough just knowing. But I was still grateful to Bella for her help and add the parents doing it factor I had to show I was willing to stick my neck out for her.
Plenty of eyes narrowed at the sight of my arm around her waist. Apparently a she-wolf wasn’t allowed to hang onto a she-vamp. I did the only thing I could, I flipped them the bird.
"Leah!" Jake hissed.
"What? I am not in the mood to deal with these little pricks and their attitude. They don’t like the fact we are cozy with vamps they can suck it."
A man’s laughter rang through out the air. Tristan stepped forward with the other elders. All of them had been hidden by the Makahs. Not on purpose, they were just smaller compared to the wolves.
"You are your mother’s daughter Leah, Sue has a strong sense of protection for those who she feels are worth it too," Tristan said.
"Bunch…stinky….mutts." Tessa/Embry said.
"Ah, the spirit I assume?" he asked.
"Yeah, don’t worry, we have him doped up with enough tranq to keep him from phasing." I said.
"Indeed." Tristan looked at Bella. His face lost some of it’s humor and became more stern around the eyes. "You must be one of the Cullens?" he asked.
"I am. I am Bella Swan-Cullen. I am here to help keep the spirit from leaving Embry’s body."
Hank stepped forward. Unlike the others who were all obviously giving off a hostile aura. Hank was unbelievingly pleased to be seeing Bella. "Glad to meet you Mrs. Cullen." he said taking her hand in his and shaking it. Bella looked shocked at this weird guy just grabbing he hand and shaking it. "I am Hank, one of the elders. I was hoping if later you would allow me the chance to take some samples from your person for me to study? I have never had the chance to study a live specimen before."
"Excuse me?" Bella asked taken back.
"Some of your venom? If it is not to much. I have been wanting to study it for many years now, I never get the chance though. The wolves only bring me back pieces of the vampires they kill so I can never really get a chance to-"
"Oh for God’s sake get a hold of yourself man!" a female in the crowd said.
Hank looked at us sheepishly. "Forgive me for being rude, I have never been this close to one of your kind, I apologize for my lack of manners."
"It’s nice to not be hated by someone around here." Bella smiled.
"Still, if you have time later I would like to ask you questions about your eating habits and with your permission gain some venom samples. If it is okay with you?"
"Sure, fine by me."
"If your going to take samples from her do it now, once the exorcism is done we want her gone!" the female snapped.
Hank glared at her. "Forgive Karen, sadly manners aren’t something that can be inherited as it seems."
Karen bared her teeth at him and did a very good impression of a wolf. Bella sighed and agreed to give Hank what he wanted. "Splendid we can talk while Merck examines the boy!"
"His name is Embry!" I snapped at him.
"Embry, sorry."
Kouga collapsed to his knees then. He was shivering badly like he was cold, which was impossible. "Kouga!" Sid shouted running over to his son. "What’s wrong with him?"
"It’s the spirits he senses," One of the elders answered. "This land is holy land. It is a place of power, we bury our warriors here when they die. Hundreds of wolves lie beneath our feet. Tomorrow is all hollows eve. The veil between this world and the next is thinning. Kouga senses not only us but the spirits of his forefathers as well."
"I thought Kouga couldn’t sense spirits as well as he could the living?" I asked.
"Spirits are just a form of energy. With tomorrow being Halloween the spirits become stronger and gain more substance it becomes easier for Kouga to sense them, plus Kouga is more sensitive to wolf energy, so by effect he is more sensitive to wolf spirits."
"So with all us living wolves and dead wolves around he is getting a sensory overload right?" Jake asked.
"Essentially yes, bring him and Embry into my house, I will treat Kouga and then see what I can do for Embry." He must be Merck.
"And while they do that we will begin the trial," Tristan said.
"Bring him out!" Karen called.
Two wolves went inside Merck’s hut. They came out holding Tony. He was wrapped in chains. A woman followed behind him with tears in her eyes. I think she was his mother. Tony saw us and his face brightened but he made no move towards us.
"Bring Kouga and Embry into my house, I will treat Kouga and then I will see what I can do for Embry," Merck said.
Evret and William took Embry from Jake and Seth. I went up to Embry and kissed him on the head. "Don’t worry, we’ll get her out of you," I whispered.
"Love…Leah…stupid bitch!" Embry/Tessa said.
"Yeah you and the horse you rode in on," I said.
They carried him over to Merck’s house and Bella followed. Stark and the wolves that escorted us followed them. I was real nervous having Bella go closer to them. They back far away from the house when she walked by them. Some covered their noses in disgust.
"We need you for the trial Merck." Karen said.
"My vote is let the kid go, who cares if he is gay. Isn’t like we are having a problem with a low population," Merck said. He opened the door to his hut and left us to talk. Stark stayed outside and joined the elders.
I saw Nicolas lean over to Tony and whisper something in his ear. Tony paled a little but looked away from Nicolas. Nicolas smiled pleased at the reaction he had caused in Tony. I remember Chris and the others saying how Nicolas loved his job so much he stayed immortal for two hundred years.
People like to stay immortal for many reasons. They fear death, they want to see eternity, love, some like us wolves get it from birth. But how many do it for sadism? Shows a persons character when they live for the reason of the love of pain.
"Well shall we begin?" Tristan asked. "Tony you have been discovered to be homosexual. Your father called us and told us."
"But it wasn’t me, that leech possessed me and made me tell!" Sid argued.
"Never the less the law has been broken," Nicolas said. "The consequences are clear."
"Oh come on!" Seth said angrily. "Like Merck said does it really matter how many wolves there are? You have almost a hundred is it really necessary to punish someone for their sexual preference?"
"It is the law pup." Nicolas said his nostrils flaring.
"We used to only get by on three wolves, now there are dozens in La push. We never punished anyone for who they loved or liked. We didn’t need to control our pack and force them to breed to make things run smoothly."
"Your probably just saying that because he has the hots for you," One of the Makah wolves sneered. "You sure you don’t like dick too pretty boy?"
A chorus of masculine laughs ran through the Makahs. "At least I’m not some cult member. Tell me you like being a guinea pig? Because you strike me as someone who likes to be someone’s bitch." Seth poked at the wolf.
You go Seth, get those fuckers!
The wolf began to shake but his friends put their hands on his shoulders to calm him down.
"It doesn’t matter, our ways are not yours. It has made our pack strong these long generations. If we allow one wolf to go free we risk ruining centuries of authority and rule. We let one wolf off and the others will try to rebel." Karen said.
"Why shouldn’t they?" I asked. "What right do you have to control their lives? To dictate who and what they are just to serve your purposes."
"I knew Tony was gay." Tom said. "But I didn’t care, he is my cousin and I love him no matter what he is."
"Me and Kouga knew too," Chris said. "We didn’t want him to be banished or killed because he wouldn’t be your stud."
"I knew he was gay, but why should I care he likes men when he doesn’t do drugs or run the streets or steal and cheat. How many parents have such a perfect boy like that?"
Nicolas smiled. It reminded me of a child ripping the legs of a fly. "Then by extension you should be punished for not telling us sooner."
"Fuck you Nicolas!" Brian growled. "I wasn’t thrilled myself when I found out. But this isn’t the old days, we have more wolves then what we have ever had, what’s one boy being queer going to hurt?"
Jake was being quiet. Watching everything, taking everything in. I was not able to read his mind now but I could practically hear the gears turning in his head.
"This doesn’t even concern you," Karen said. "You are not Makahs, you have no right to be hear!"
"Wrong! We have every right. You gave him to us to join our pack. We have run with him and hunted with him this last month. He is a good kid. If we just stood by and let him get killed for some stupid ass reason then we would have no right to call ourselves human." I said.
"We do have so many wolves," the other woman said. I knew she must be Lydia. I had Chris and the others tell me all about their elders. Who they were, what they did. Chris said of all the elders Lydia was most likely to be on our side. "Will one wolf really matter in the plan?"
"It’s not about breeding it’s about order and discipline. We can not let a single wolf escape our law." Nicolas said.
"Your not doing this for the law Nicolas, your doing this because you are a sadistic bastard who enjoys torturing others," Chris said. He stepped forward and addressed the wolves. "I am no longer of this pack. I renounce all ties of blood and loyalty I had to Makah."
A stunned silence filled the air. Then their was an eruption of angry voices.
"Blasphemy!"
"You can’t do this!"
"He’s mad!"
"Madness!"
"Don’t do this!"
All kinds of wolves shouted all kinds of things. Only two watched him silently. Stark watched him. There was a slight smirk to his face, like Chris had done something he thought was good.
Tristan had a neutral face but his eyes betrayed the surprise and shock he was obviously feeling. Of all the things Chris was going to say he was not expecting that. I wonder if Chris had just thrown a kink into his plans.
It didn’t take long before the shit really hit the fan. Soon his father, uncle and cousins all walked forward. "We too are no longer of this pack, we too renounce all loyalties to Makah!" They all said in perfect synchronization.
"Tristan stop them!" Karen screeched.
"How long have you planned this?" Tristan asked Chris.
"I never did, and for that I am fool," Chris said. "But the Quileutes don’t need to torture their wolves, or dictate them, tell them who to breed with, and they don’t take their humanity." he looked at Mark and Davis who watched everything with cold dispassionate eyes. "I was so afraid my actions would cause the ones I care for to be hurt. But even when I did nothing my friends were stripped of their humanity. I am so sorry Mark and Davis, I should have taken you with me."
"If your friends hadn’t been going around trying to convince the others to leave Makah and join you then we wouldn’t have had to use the requiem." Karen said.
"Lydia how could you let this happen? You hate the requiem." Brian said.
Lydia looked down in shame. "I voted no…I was overruled."
"I say we kill them all!" Nicolas said. "This is treachery!"
"No!" a wolf shouted. All eyes turned to him. He was six foot four. He looked like he was a basketball player, he had the right build for it. "Come on guys, this isn’t the dark ages. Chris was a good leader, he was fair to us all. How can we stand here and let this happen. You all knew Tony, he never did no harm to any of us. Even all those times many of us beat the holy hell out of him he never fought back. What right do we have to deny him his existence!"
"Stand down Jeff." Stark said softly.
"No Stark!"
Stark looked at him with a cold face. "I said stand down."
Even I could feel the power of the voice. The power only an alpha can use. Jeff whimpered. He tried to fight it, but in the end he stepped back into the crowd.
Something had changed. I could feel it. Their was now a restlessness to the crowd. Like some energy being held back. Only the Makah elders and their threats were keeping it back, but it was wearing thin.
"Everyone look!" Chris said. "We never had a choice before, now we do. I have seen life in La Push and I have tasted the fruit of freedom and self-destiny. There are two packs in La Push and they get along fine, they are allies with vampires and one of them imprinted on a Halfling. The world, our world isn’t as black and white as they have made it out to be. I have met these vampires, I have even hunted with them. They are not evil, in fact their leader is more human then some humans I have met. We don’t have to live in fear, we don’t have to let others tell us what to do. We can live our own life, we can be our own masters."
"Your treading on thin ice Chris!" Tristan warned.
Chris glared at Tristan. "I am not scared of you old man. You have no power over me!"
"May I remind you we have your brother."
"You wont hurt him!"
"Your right, we won’t. "Tristan looked at the wolves. What he saw he did not like. Many of the wolves had dreamy looks on their faces. Chris’s words were having a powerful affect. "Tell you what Chris. We will let your brother go and your family may leave the tribe under one condition."
"What?" Chris asked.
"You stay here, lead the pack again…after you hear the Requiem of Wolves."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bella P.O.V
I wasn’t really comfortable right now.
I was sitting down between Evert and William. I should be concerned with William trying to touch my butt. But it was the wolves who have been doing nothing but stare at me nonstop with looks of death that I was focused on. I may not be a new born anymore but my instincts were still screaming at me to run. I was greatly outnumbered right now and needed to get away to some place safe.
Embry sat in a circle of salt. Merck was in the circle. He had lit some lavender and it’s sweet scent was filtering out the wet dog smell. He was moving his hands over Embry, saying something I did not understand. Hank sat across from us on a table. He was opening up some files and had a bag next to his leg.
"Mrs. Cullen would you mind if we begin now?" he asked.
"Huh?"
"The samples." he said.
"Oh yes, sure." I got up and walked over to the table. I sat down and Hank had put on a pair of glasses that added to his doctor look.
"How long have you been a vampire?" he asked.
"Little over a year." I said.
"Oh damn, hold on." he reach in the bag and pulled out a recorder. "Sorry I want to record this as well. Now could you please say how long you have been a vampire?"
"A little over a year."
"What was it like when you became one?"
I explained all my new born experiences. How I showed remarkable talent and composure. "You actually fled from the humans?" he asked shocked.
"Yes. We think since I had time to mentally prepare for the transformation it helped. Others thinks since I was so withdrawn and shy as a human it carried on to my vampire life."
He wrote down some notes. "You have a power right?"
"Yes, I am a shield. I am immune to all vampire powers that affect the mind. I had this as a human but when I became a vampire I learned I could expand my shield or even put it on someone else, like what I have done with Embry. I also learned that if I use it on an alpha wolf I can protect the wolves connected to them even if they are not in the shield."
"Fascinating! Simply fascinating!" He asked a few more questions. Like if I have ever drank human blood, what animal blood was like, did I have a preference. What kind of vampire powers worked on me. I wanted to be careful with that one. If the Makah’s ever decided to attack I wanted them to be surprised. I told him Alice saw me, but I neglected to mention she couldn’t see the wolves.
He asked a few questions about Nessie which I was a little uncomfortable about. He saw how uncomfortable and patted my hand and told me he would not use it to harm her. I knew from his heart beat he was being truthful, even his scent showed he meant no ill will. I answered his questions. How long it took her to develop, her power, how mentally advanced she was, what her human and vampire attributes were like.
Eventfully he asked of the Volturi. He was amazed vampires had a ruling system. I told him all I knew about them. Where they where, who the members were, what they were like, what I knew of them.
Finally he asked me for some venom samples. I obliged. He brought some containers to hold the venom which I supplied. While I began to work some up I asked him a few questions.
"What is he doing?" I asked nodding to Merck.
"Well I believe he is reading his Aura, I can’t be sure though, metaphysics is not my area of expertise."
"So how do you become a shaman?" I asked.
"Well we like to find members of our tribe who are gifted, they usually get the job."
"Gifted?"
"Oh yes, those who have strong psychic powers. Merck had the power of Psychometry. When he touched something he learns that objects history. Kind of like how that Aro character can read people. People or objects Merck touches them and he learns things about them. That is how he learned of the wolves, he touched one of the members when he was younger and he knew. We took him to our old shaman and he taught him how to control his gift and trained him to take his place."
"No wonder he lives so isolated, one touch and you know everything, I can’t imagine how terrible that must be," I said.
Merck stopped speaking. "I was never a people person to begin with. My parents had me sent to the hospital many times to learn what my condition was. I was contemplating suicide when I learned the tribe secret. My mentor taught me how to control my gift so I didn’t get an over load of information when I touched someone."
"So now you only get flashes?" I asked.
"If I want flashes, yes." He walked out of the circle. "I know how to help him, I know the perfect ritual."
"What?" I asked.
"We will call the spirits of our ancestors." he walked over to Kouha who was wrapped in a blanket. He was mumbling over and over again. Merck reached into his Jish and pulled out a herb rolled into a ball. He made Kouga eat it and Kouga calmed down a little. "This herb will numb his power. It will help him build his shields back up so he can resist the power."
"Thank you Merck," Evert said.
"Yeah your not bad for an old hermit." William said.
"Quiet you!" Merck snapped.
"Umm, excuse me, what did you mean you will call the wolf spirits?" I asked.
"I mean if I do exorcise the spirit she will simply find a new vessel. We need to banish her to the spirit realm where she will face the sprits of our forefathers. We will need many wolves to call them though. We will have to do it immediately. She wasn’t supposed to be in a body for so long. The longer she is in the harder it will be to banish her. Too long and it may have detrimental affects on him when I do the ritual."
"Lets wait a few more minutes for them to finish, best not interrupt when the hornets nest is stirred," William said.
"You hear them too?" I asked.
"Yep, things are about to get really nasty now," he said.
"I can’t believe you would leave the tribe." one of the wolves said.
"Hey I never liked being told what to do," William said. "I may be a slut but even a slut wants freedom." He looked at me and winked. "Besides vampires aren’t so bad once you get past the smell."
The wolves made sounds of disgust. "Your not just a pretty face are you?" I smiled at him.
"Maybe some time I will show you how pretty my other areas are." He thought for a minute. "Is it considered necrophilia if you have sex with a vampire?"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jake P.O.V
I have had enough.
"No." I said firmly before Chris could answer.
"This doesn’t concern you black," Tristan said.
"Yes it does, you will give us back Tony, you will allow any wolf who wishes it to join us and you will help exorcise my brother free of charge."
Tristan looked at me with arrogance. "And what makes you think you have the right to order us? We out number you greatly."
"Maybe, but all wolves here are descended from a single wolf. My family have been the chiefs of La Push for generations, being the alpha is in my blood. Sam may be in charge of his own pack but even he cowers in my power."
It was weird. I did not know where this confidence was coming from. Ever since we got here I felt the energy of this place. Not like Kouga. Kouga once told me that me being the Alpha, the true Alpha, gave me a natural sense for wolf energy. Not like his of course, but enough I could feel the power of this places like snow hitting my face. And ever since we got here there was something…driving me…pushing me forward, telling me what to say.
It was like a quiet voice in the back of my head, whispering.
"This is not La Push," Karen snapped.
"No," Sue said. She had been quiet through out the whole thing. "But your wolves come from out tribe. It may have been many generations ago but there is something in their blood that remembers where it came from. And if you gave enhanced their wolf parts then they should feel a stronger compulsion to obey Jake."
"That’s ridiculous Sue," Tristan said.
The energy around us began to swirl. The wolves began to look around feeling the power shifting.
"What is that?!" Stark asked.
"What’s going on?" Nicolas asked.
"what is it?" Tristan said.
Just then Merck opened his door. "The spirits agree with him Tristan, they side with the Quileutes." he stepped to the side and the rest of the Makah wolves stepped out and joined their pack. Bella, Evert, and William came out carrying Embry.
"I feel it, but I don’t know why, I’m not a wolf." Bella said.
"You are a vampire, you were a powerful psychic as a human. Being a vampire makes you sensitive to magic, it would be a stronger feeling if you were a wolf but you are not. Wild magic runs this night so close to all hollow’s eve. Anyone with any kind of special foresight will sense it."

Unknown P.O.V
I stopped eating the moose carcass to stare in the direction of Makah. I was sensing powerful mystical disturbances. I lowered my shields and a blast of colors hit me so hard I actually almost lost my footing.
The spirits of Makah were restless. Something the humans were planning was agitating them. So much that they are trying to contact the living to warn them. One of the benefits of my power is it lets me see into the spirit realms.
I see the ancestors of the Makah wolf tribe preparing to hunt a vampire spirit, to send it to the next life. I see a wolf. Powerful and ancient, with fur whiter then snow, and a gold sheen that mad him look like a walking sun. He was hunting too, but it was not spirits he hunted, it was souls.
I returned my vision to the realm of flesh and blood and saw what the Makahs were planning. I gasped at their plan. Such fools they are, to temper with such things. Lord what fools these mortals be.
I raised my shields and returned to my feast. The situation would not affect me so I would not interfere. Let the Quileutes worry about the Makahs I have my own plans to enact.
But the spirits were not just restless in Makah. There is an island at the mouth of the Quillayute river there is an island called James Island. It’s Quileute name is A-Ka-Lat top of the rock. At one time it was used to grow food to send to the main land, then it was used to spot whales. It was also used as a resting place for the Quileute chiefs. Now the us coast guard operates a lighthouse there for boats coming into the harbor.
The bodies of the chiefs are still there. Even in death they seek to protect their people. As any good leader would.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sam P.O.V
I don’t know what caused it but something drew us wolves to James’s island.
It was like a string attached to my brain pulling me there. Sarah sensed it to, she was so fussy there was nothing Emily or I could do to pacify her.
Paul called from the hospital to give me an update on Ellen and Billy. There was no change. Paul was sensing the disturbance as well. But he could not leave Rachel by herself.
I told him I would check into it. Soon I was getting calls from everyone in my pack. Quil called from his house too to see what was up. I told everyone to meet at James island to see what was up.
Emily came. I should have made her stay, but something told me there was no danger. We drove there. The closer we got the more calm Sarah got. We pulled up to the shore. There were already some cars there and I could see my pack waiting. Some had brought their imprints too.
We got out and went over to meet with them. Jared walked up to me with Kim. "Hi Kim, how is the finger?" Emily asked.
"Good, Kim smiled. Makes me feel better I was possessed by a vampire instead of doing myself." Kim said showing us her bandaged finger.
What is it Sam?" Jared asked. "What is pulling us there?"
"I wish I knew," I said looking out to James island.
"Shouldn’t we leave to meet with Leah and the others?" Jared asked.
A pulse of energy came from the island. It made my stomach clench and Sarah cried.
"What the hell was that?"
"I think…it’s the former chiefs," I said. Another pulse of energy, this time more gentle.
"I think your right, I don’t know why but that…feels right."
All the wolves gathered around us. "It makes sense," Brady said. "We have generations of chiefs buried there. Many of whom were wolves themselves."
"But why is this happening now?"
"Has it ever happened before?"
"My grandfather once told me that the spirits of the wolves would only try to contact us if something dire was about to happen. Something so big it affects not only the tribe…but the world," Quil said.
Another gentle pulse from the island.
"I think that means yes. Gentle means yes, no is harsher."
Another gentle pulse.
"But what is the problem? Is it the Makahs?" Brady asked.
We all looked out to the island. First there was a gentle pulse, then a harsh one.
"What’s that? Yes and no?" I asked the island.
A gentle pulse.
"Okay so…we have two problems." Jared said to the island.
A gentle pulse.
"Okay, is one of them the Makahs?" I asked.
A gentle pulse.
"So what is the other problem?" Kim asked.
Nothing.
"I guess we can only ask yes or no questions," one of the wolves said.
"Does the problem have to do with what happened to Billy and Ellen?" I asked.
A gentle pulse.
"What happened to Billy and Ellen?" one of the wolves asked.
I told them about the accident. I told them what Ellen said. "A man who looks like a American Indian but has yellow eyes…you think it was a vampire? He had Golden eyes maybe he is like the Cullen’s," Jared said.
A harsh pulse came from the island.
"Not a vampire?"
A harsh pulse.
"So something is running around that is not a vampire but is not human?" I asked. I was beginning to feel silly for talking to an island.
A gentle pulse.
"Is it dangerous?"
A gentle pulse.
"Are we all in danger?"
A gentle pulse.
"Can we stop it?"
Nothing.
"Well some help you are." I said.
"Maybe if we go to the island maybe we can communicate with them better?" one of the wolves made it a question.
"Unless any of us is a medium I don’t think so."
"That’s it!" Emily shouted.
"What?" I asked.
"Guys tomorrow is Halloween, everyone knows that legends say that the spirits are able to interact with the living on that day. Maybe tomorrow if you go to the island in wolf form you can speak to the chiefs and find out what is wrong."
A gentle pulse.
"They agree. But I don’t like the thought of leaving Leah and the others alone. What if something happens?" I asked.
A sharp pulse hit me from the island. I felt the power prickle over my skin like fire ants. The power wanted me to come to the island. But why me? I was not of the Black family?
I felt the answer rise up from within me. I was not of the Blacks but I was an Alpha.
"Okay tomorrow we go to the island and see what they want," I said.
A gentle pulse. This one was warm and welcoming. The spirits knew we were coming and they were extending the welcome matt.
Quil let out a sharp breath and fell to his knees. The power was leaking from him. Like a hot wind blowing out of his body. "Something’s happening," he whispered. "Something is happening to Jake."
A gentle pulse. Yes.
Yeah no shit island. Great now I’m talking to a chink of earth.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jake P.O.V
The power continued to swirl around us. Or more specifically me.
I could feel it run through me. It filled me up to the brim and began to spill out. It felt like phasing only without changing my form. Like I was stuck in that single second when my body shifts and changes.
Through me the power found that invisible link that bound my pack to me. It was like even in human form the link between me and mine was open opening us up to each other.
I could feel Quil miles away. I knew he was with the others. I knew he was feeling the surge of power. I knew he knew where it was coming from. I could feel his fear, the fear he would never see Clair again. But I somehow knew it would all work out okay. I sent him a thought "You will see her again, I promise." I felt his belief in my words. His relief.
I could feel Seth. He was worried this would cause a fight. He was worried Tony would be harmed if we became to forceful. His heart was pure and warm. The kind of goodness so rare and precious. More valuable then any metal or green paper. I Knew Tony would be okay. He was ours. Mine. Mine to protect. Mine to look after as they all were. Seth saw my resolve to save Tony and knew peace.
I felt the power flow through Leah. It liked her. She was a female, a giver of life. A protector, a nurturer. She was a rare kind. She would make us strong. I knew somehow she would have more children one day. But with whom? It was obvious. Her and Embry. I saw a vision then. So powerful I could taste and smell and hear it like I was there.
Embry at the Clearwater house. He sat on the porch with a very pregnant Leah. Four children were playing in front of them. I knew that Sarah was one of them. She had her mothers hair and eyes. She had Sam’s cheek bones though, and his smile. She made sure her brothers who were wrestling didn’t hurt each other.
Yes brothers, Leah and Embry would have three boys together and another child. The boys were all odd mix’s of Embry and Leah. I saw some of Harry in one boy. He took after his grandfather.
The three boys all phased. They began to wrestle some more. Leah and Embry sighed. Sarah went up to them and without saying anything her presence caused them to phase back. She was a leader Sarah was. I knew one day she would take over for Sam.
I looked over to Leah to see if she saw. She had tears running down her face. She saw it all right. I could feel her desire for that vision. "Soon," I thought, "One day soon."
The power did not stop with us. It went all the way to Chris and his family. I was reading them like a book. More powerful then I have ever read them in wolf form.
Chris feeling guilt for his friends. His willingness to sacrifice his soul if it would save his brother and keep us safe. The power of an Alpha flowed through him. He was a good man. Fair and noble in all his choices. I did not know how, but I knew that there was a way to save all who were affected by the Requiem. "Have hope, they are not lost."
I felt them all. Poor Kouga overwhelmed by his own power. I reached into him with the power. I could feel his ability. It was pushing out of him, unable to deal with all the power. I pushed the power into him, but then stopped. This was not a power to be sealed, it was meant to be shared. Through all us I linked to Kouga. All of us together took his burden and eased it off him. We all became more aware of the power. It was like an electricity running through the body. It rode the invisible line between pain and pleasure. Kouga eased of his burden returned to us fully restored. "It’s not permanent, but for now we share your pain, we shield you from it."
I felt Sid and his desire to save his family, to give them the life he never had. To give to them what his mother gave his sister. A chance for life and happiness.
I saw Brian normally so quick to anger, know a deep inner peace most men never feel in a life time. I saw him see the world more clearly, finally escaping the box he was raised in to see a whole new world.
I saw Tom like his father. Proud and angry know peace as well. But still a warrior at heart, ready to fight for his family, his pack. "No fighting this day," I thought. "This day we save and protect."
I felt Stephan, so smart and sharp full of fear. He was a man of science, even being a werewolf he was ground into metal and plastic. "Don’t be afraid. Respect the power like you would nature, but do not fear it. It is as much a part of you as your other self."
I felt William. I felt his wonder at what was happening. He was thinking of the power you feel at a good party. When the music flows into your ears and posses your body. Fills you up with delight and makes you experience Nirvana. But I also sensed a longing in him. I saw a woman he loved, still loved. But he could not bear to expose her to his world so he left her to find happiness with another man. Once again the knowledge flowed into me. "She still loves you, she will find her way to you again."
I sensed Richard. He was a simple man enjoying the pleasures of life. But there was a great emptiness in him. He wanted love. All the endless lovers, the meaningless one night stands. All to fill a void in his heart. He knew love once. But it was a love lost. A lover of his had died and with her a piece of his soul. But he endured as painful as it was. I had a vision then. A woman. One of us. I know her. Jessica. The same Jessica from that day on the beach. She was once again on the beach. She looked up at us as if she sensed us there.
I sensed Richard look into her eyes and I felt the imprint happen. "Who is she?" he asked in wonderment.
"Your other half, the one who will ease your pain."
"But I don’t want to forget Megan," he said.
"And you wont. Your love for her has not died. Love is a form of energy. It can never die. It can transmute but never be destroyed. Go to her. She waits for you. Not knowing you even exist. You will be happy with her."
The vision faded and I felt his joy. His heart was now healed. He had found true love at last.
I sensed Evert. He was the most simple of his family. I sensed his desire to change Makah. To make it better for it’s wolves. To make it like La Push. I knew that he would play an important role in the future of Makah. That he would change Makah for the better. He had an important role to play.
I sensed Tony. He was seeing inside his family’s thoughts. Seeing their love for him, despite his gayness. He felt their love, their acceptance. He felt Seth’s love for him to. And he wept.
Finally I sensed Embry. He was lost in himself. I sensed the vampire too. Her rage. Her darkness. Shrouding Embry’s light. People like to think that light always beats darkness. That is not always true. Sometimes even light must bow to the dark. I sensed her spreading in him like a cancer. I knew we would save him. I knew he had seen the vision of him and Leah. His passion and love for her and Sarah and their children burned brightly, pushing against the darkness.
The power found Sam. Even far away it found him. I could sense him through Quil. He was close to James island, our holy ground, our place of power. The power flowed out through Quil and attached to Sam. The link between us opened.
"Jake?"
"Yes it is me."
"What is going on?"
"I’m not sure, but we have to let it happen Sam. The flood gates have opened, the spirits are working. We can either ride the power or it will ride us."
"I understand."
He opened up to me. Through him I sensed his pack. Soon the link opened to us and them like one great big pack. They were my pack. They would always be my pack. I would always be connected to them no matter what. But They followed Sam. I could not touch them without him allowing it. I sensed all their desires, hopes, dream, fears. I saw Billy and Ellen hurt bad. But the spirits told me they would be fine. They told me something prowled our woods. But Sam would deal with it. We had work to do in Makah.
The power extended to the rest of the Makah wolves. I felt Mark and Davis resist. They were like cold flames. They had lost their warmth. They were not the only ones. There were other wolves who had suffered a similar fate. They rejected the power and it moved on.
Others wolves rejected it, but out of ignorance and fear. Others embraced it, they used it to cover themselves like a blanket and it flowed into them. Severing them from the Makah’s and opening them to La Push. La Push where they all came from.
I saw into their minds. I saw how they were raised and I felt a streak of anger. What the elders had done was atrocious. A betrayal. We are the guardians. To protect our tribe we sacrifice our selves, this is true. But what the Makah’s are doing is a betrayal to their protectors, a sacrilege.
We were all connected now. For a few moments we were larger then any pack in the world. We were all open to one another, becoming closer then ever. But soon the magic began to fade. Soon the link was fading, separating us into individuals again. The power did not leave, not fully. It was like it went back into the earth and waited. Waited to be summoned again, waited to continue it’s work.
I looked at Tristan and saw anger, envy and jealousy.
"What just happened?" I asked.
"Magic, wild magic. The kind of magic that has not walked since the olden days. The power that was sealed in the spirit realm, but tonight given willingly to you. To work the will of the spirits," Merck said.
"they are very pissed with you and the others you know?" I asked.
"I know, and when the time has come to reap what I and the others have sown I will not run. But until that time comes we must follow the paths we have chosen."
Many of the wolves walked forward as one. Soon we had about thirty Makah wolves come to our side to stand with us. That evens things pretty much.
"Where the hell do you all think you are going? Get back here!" Karen screeched.
"They are no longer ours Karen," Lydia said with a bright smile. "They have chosen a different path."
Tristan walked over to Tony. He pulled out a key and unlocked the chains. "Go," he said.
Tony came running over to us. His family and Seth went to meet him. They hugged him and clapped him on the back. His mother joined them happy her son was free.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tony POV
I hugged everyone. So happy to be free and still delighted form what happened. I felt a new found courage running through me. A strength I did not have before.
"As much as I hate to break this up lets hurry up and get this exorcism done with," Nicolas said.
I flushed and remembered how he whispered in my ear earlier. He whispered that when it was time for me to die he would have me torn to pieces in front of my family to make them suffer.
"We don’t want the dead bitch and the wolf faggot to taint this holy place further with the Quileutes." He sneered.
My family growled at him. But I healed up a hand to stop them. "Tony?" My mother asked.
I looked at the elders and the wolves who stuck with them. Many of those wolves had made me suffer when I was still a member of the pack .They teased me, verbally and physically abused me. I feared them for what they would do to me if they knew I was gay.
I feared my family and friends would reject me. But now I knew no fear. Now I knew only love, pride, and courage. I wanted to show them I didn’t care what they thought, that I loved being what I am. That’s why I did what I did.
I walked up to Seth and took his face into my hands. "Tony?" he asked confused.
"Seth, I need your help. This is a holy place. Passion here is considered a great blasphemy." I gently rubbed his cheeks with my thumbs. "And I have a great need to blaspheme."
I pulled his face close and kissed him. It wasn’t like the last time when I was possessed. It was sweet, gentle, firm, passionate. I poured every ounce of love and care for this man into this kiss. I heard the wolves behind me snarl in disgust and my pack and family gasp in shock. I smiled at the reaction I was getting from the Makah’s and to rub salt in the wound I extended my arm in their direction and flipped them the bird. I heard cries of out rage and disgust.
I smiled satisfied with my work. I pulled back from Seth and saw his lips red and puffy. He was lost for words.
"Sorry, I know you don’t dig guys but I had to do something to get at them," I apologized.
He smiled and touched his lips. "I think that was the funniest thing that has ever happened. If it pissed them off I am happy."
We looked at the Makahs and saw them sending us death glares. "Mission succeeded." I said.
"Besides being nasty as hell I approve." Leah said and I blushed when she winked at me.
"I know you don’t swing that way bro but if you do decide to get with him I encourage you two getting married."
"Leah!" Seth said embarrassed.
"What? We can have Sarah be the flower girl." she smirked.
Fusedtwilight: What the heck just happened? What could a I possibly do to top that? Wait for the next chapter, Embry finally gets his exorcism and we finally learn the Makah’s secret plan.
