Chris P.O.V

We were all helping Richard build his house. Tony was over with Seth today, he had only been here once and it was not good. Watching us work with our hands was like a bitter poison for him. He had not been doing well since Max ripped his arms off.

We had all been keeping a close eye on him. We had to, all the times he made those jokes about offing himself how could we not? I was angry. Angry I had not been able to protect him, angry he would never be able to play his violin again, angry my once happy cheerful brother was suffering every second of every day, angry that soon we would have to fight again, this time my own tribe.

I had thought everything would be better. After we left Makah I thought we would not have to fight them…I was wrong. I cursed Tristan and his obsession with the nexus. I cursed the others for following him so blindly.

“No point in getting upset,” Kouga said. He was carrying a large piece of timber in his hands.

“I’m not angry,” I said.

“You can’t lie to me Chris, I know you to well,” he said.

“Stop trying to psychoanalyze me.” I hammered the nails into the wall.

“I worry about Tony too.”

“Will you stop it?” I snapped.

“Okay boys break time!” Jessica called.

She walked in the room, carrying a tray of lemonade. “Baby!” Richard said rushing over to her and taking the drinks from her. “Don’t over work yourself! You might hurt yourself or the baby.”

She put her hands on her hips. “I am only two weeks along Richard; I can carry a tray of drinks.”

“You shouldn’t’t over work yourself, let me do this for you,” he said.

She rolled her eyes. “Come on guys get your drinks.”

We all stopped what we were doing and drank her lemonade. “This is really good,” Brian said.

“Thank you, I have to do something, lord knows Richard here won’t let me get off the couch,” she said.

“Well, I don’t want you to trip and fall, besides, I much prefer you on the bed.” Richard wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her on the cheek.

Jessica’s face reddened. “Richard! Not in front of your family!” she said embarrassed.
“I can’t help it your so sexy.” he nuzzled her neck.

We all laughed. It was amazing how imprinting changed us. Richard had a true love once. Her name had been Megan. She was a delightful girl, smart, pretty. Richard and her had plans to get married one day. They were high school sweet hearts. They had been boyfriend and girlfriend since fifth grade.

She died. She developed bone cancer. She beat it twice, but it kept on coming back. It was the third time when it returned that it killed her. Richard had been devastated. Losing her had done something to him, messed with his head. He promised her he would continue without her. But he was a changed man. He dropped out of school never got his degree. He began partying, sleeping around, getting drunk (which is tough for us).

He quickly gained a rep for being a ladies man, it seemed like every night he had a different girl in his bed. He had a type, girls who looked like Megan. I always wondered how he avoided knocking girls up. He was never really careful. We can tell when a woman is fertile. Still accidents could happen.

We were sure he would have slipped up by now, there had been a few scares but that’s it. Some guys are just lucky I guess. We always hoped he would find his imprint. We knew no woman except an imprint could save him. He was in a downward spiral and there was nothing we could do for him. Then the spirits showed him Jessica in a vision and he was saved.

A few days after what happened with Max he found her on the beach she had been going to that spot every night since before Halloween. She said it was like something was telling her to wait there, that someone was looking for her.

Richard worked his magic on her right there and then and three days later Jessica found out she was pregnant. Guess Richard’s luck finally ran out. When Richard found out he immediately got to work. Planning to build a house, planning to finish his education and get a degree, marriage plans.

Jessica’s parents weren’t’t happy at all. They were angry their daughter got pregnant. Good thing she already graduated. They wanted their daughter to go to college, meet a nice respectable hard working boy. Instead she got pregnant by a man who quit school, had no job and had a reputation as a man whore.

Richard was doing his best, he was trying to find a job, finish his education, build a house and take care of his imprint. There had been a nasty fight between Jessica and her parents. Apparently they did not want their daughter to marry a drop out. They tried to convince her to try the double a plan, abortion or adoption. Jessica wasn’t doing either.

She moved out of her parents and moved in with us, which is why Richard was making a new house. Just for him, her and their baby. It was crowded enough at the Atera’s right now, Richard wanted a house for his family.

We all had our own problems. Richard had Jessica and his child, Seth had Tony, I had the Makah wolves to worry about. It had been rough assimilating the two packs. We Makah’s are used to having a strict disciplined pack with a well defined hierarchy.

The Quileute’s only had the alpha and beta rank, there really was no hierarchy, just a leader and his second in command. But we have at least a dozen positions of rank and authority. The Makah’s were frustrated by the lack of order and control; the Quileute’s were annoyed by how disciplined and obedient we are.

Plus there is still bad blood between the two groups. That didn’t help matters. There was also our stronger wolf instincts and the fact Max fucked with the Quileute’s minds. Wolves aren’t meant to live in such large packs, both in real life and as a supernatural.
I wanted to devote my time to Tony, but I had to help Richard and help the union of the packs go smoothly. I may not be pack leader, but I still carry a lot of weight from my old days as ruler of the pack.

Stark had been my runner, our version of the beta. I was very upset to learn he was in on Tristan’s plans. But then I have to remember if I had not imprinted on Sarah or come to La Push I may have done the same thing.

I had to wonder how long he knew. Before I left? After? How could he support such a mad scheme? I had to give him credit, he did help us, he gave us the names of the wolves affected by the wolves and made sure no one in the pack attacked us while we worked.
I blamed myself for what happened in Makah. I always knew there was something wrong in our tribe, it wasn’t the rules or the restrictions, I just always had a sense our people had fallen from our path and were led astray. Now soon I may have to fight my kinsmen, people I knew, people I loved, people I once vowed to protect.

I had hoped we could avoid such conflict, I had hoped there would be no more fighting. But the spirits have spoken. Tristan had found the nexus and if he opened it all hell would break loose. Tristan must be stopped and to get to him we’ll have to go through the pack. I was a little hopeful. We greatly out numbered Makah and with the aid of the Cullens I am sure the battle will be quick. But still it hurts to think I will have to fight my tribe.
I looked at Richard as he hugged Jessica. In order to save my family I had to fight my tribe. If Tristan opens the nexus who knows what will happen. Who’s to say Tristan won’t seek retribution on my family for defecting.

I don’t want my cousin to live a life we lived. I want him or her to be their own person. To be able to leave the tribe when they want, to go to college, move where they like, do what they want to do or to chose a loved one themselves, to have their own kids when they want.

The only way to do that is to kill Tristan. He is hell bent on opening the nexus and he must be stopped. At all costs so if I have to fight my tribe and former pack so be it.
I won’t just fight them to save my family; I will fight them to save them from themselves. So one day they can know the true meaning of freedom.

Leah P.O.V

I left Jacob’s house in a huff.

Stupid shaman and his stupid dream map! Edward was driving me home. Merck kicked me out when he thought I was being a disturbing presence, old bat.

Edward chuckled. “Shut up sir Emo!” I snapped.

“Really Leah how much longer are you going to call me that? Bad enough you have Emmett calling me that.”

“Well stop being such a sensitive goody two shoes and we’ll talk.”

He sighed. “I thought women liked a man to be dignified and respectable.”

“Maybe back in the olden days when the Titanic was still up and running,” I said.

“So where is Sarah?”

“With Sam, she has been spending a lot of time with him and Em. I feel bad, like I am neglecting her or something.”

“You are a busy women, your pack needs you. You’ll have your time with her soon. Remember, it is better to raise a child in a stable environment then a chaotic one.”

“Wow, Nessie must be scared already.” he glared at me from the corner of his eye. “Easy, just kidding, she’s a good kid, considering what has happened to her these past two years.”

“Yes, she is a good child. I to am a surprised how well she is, after all the violence she’s experienced I would think she needs therapy. I like to think she gets it from Bella, being able to adapt so easily to strange and dangerous situations.”

“She’s a tough little kid. Jake is lucky to have her looking after him while he’s sleeping.”

“Leah…after this thing with the nexus we have to leave.”

“What?”

He sighed. “It’s been to long, people are really starting to notice Carlisle hasn’t aged. Their starting to talk.”

I ran my hand through my hair. It was bound to happen sooner rather then later. I was surprised that they had lasted this long.

“Believe me we have been pressing our luck. But we all talked. After we help you stop the Makah’s from opening this nexus we are going to leave, me and Bella are going to stay behind as long as we can so Jake can have more time with Nessie, but we can’t stay long. Everyone thinks we adopted her and will wonder why she isn’t going to school and why she isn’t seen around.”

“I know. It sucks. You all were finally growing on me…kind of like a fungus.”

He smirked, knowing I wasn’t being too serious. “You too were starting to grow on us, like a tick on a dog.”

“Ohh, good one, thanks for helping us out and all, sorry you have to get involved with our mess again.”

“Are you kidding? After all the things you had to go through because of us? I figure we’ll be even with this nexus thing.”

He dropped me off at my house. “Thanks again Edward, keep me posted.”

“Will do.”

I shut the door and he drove off. I walked to the house and went upstairs. I smelled Seth and Tony here. I could hear they were sleeping. Seth was a good guy. I know it was hard on him right now. He was still trying to figure out whether or not he was two spirited or not. Now he has to deal with taking care of Tony and the stress of the pack and the coming battle.

It didn’t bother me if Seth was gay. I do have my doubts. I think he is confused by his feelings for Tony. But hey, maybe he is. I mean I have had lesbian dreams before. Before and after I became a wolf.

That was another reason why I was so bitchy. If I wasn’t dreaming about Bella, I was dreaming about Kim, if not Kim then Claire and if not Claire then Emily and all those random girls the guys thought were hot. It made me confused and angry…well more then what I was. You have enough dreams in your head of kissing women or doing things with them you shouldn’t be doing it starts to mess with your head.

I had no doubts in my head now. I was strictly dickey now. If Seth wanted to be gay I’ll still love and support him. How can I not? After all those times he stuck up for me when I was being bitch of the century. Gay, straight, bi how could I not love him, he’s my brother.

I always wondered why some sisters or parents shun or hate their children or siblings when they find out their two spirited. To think a little thing like sexual preference can break a family like glass.

They use the stupidest excuses to reject them for it, its wrong, its perverse, it goes against god. That’s why I am not a Christen or a Catholic. I have nothing against the idea of God. I like some of it, thou shall not kill, thou shall not steal, and thou shall not commit adultery. I like that stuff.

But to believe god who is supposed to be Omni-benevolent would condemn his children for being in love. How can love between same sex people be condemned if they truly love someone? I mean what about all those people that marry just so they can get money or do it so they can leech off their spouse. What about all those married couples where the one beats the other or they make their lives miserable?

I just can’t believe that if god exists he would condemn someone for loving another, even if it was same sex. Rapists, murders, molesters and you’re telling me my brother who is a saint practically will go to hell? Uh, uh, I am not buying that.

We aren’t religious. Years ago missionaries came and tried to convert us to Jesus which was stupid. Lots of Quileute’s are into god. We went to church a few times. Dad and mom wanted me and Seth to decide what our religion would be. Which was pretty cool. Most parents expect their kids to be what ever religion they are, but mom and dad wanted us to choose.

Seth kind of tinkered with it but it just wasn’t for him. We both decided to continue our people’s traditions and beliefs. Quileute’s have a more open minded view of the world and nature. Besides, how can I not follow our beliefs? I am one of the beliefs.

I was in the kitchen considering making the boys something to eat. Mom was spending some time with Charlie today. The phone rang and I quickly answered it not wanting Seth and Tony to wake up. “Hello?” I answered.

“Leah? It’s Emily.”

“Hey Em, everything okay?” I asked.

“Yes fine, but could you come over? Sam and I need to talk to you.”

“Sure, I’ll be down.”

I quickly finished making Seth and Tony their snacks and put it in the fridge. I left them a note to let them know and headed for Sam and Emily’s. Ever since I had Sarah I really got in to the whole mothering thing. Cooking, cleaning. I had to make sure everyone was well fed and everything was clean, I mean I have a baby, don’t want her to get sick.

Embry and Seth enjoyed my new instincts, lazy bastards. They can fight hordes of vampires fearlessly but when it comes time for someone to do the dishes they disappear quicker then a vampire in the fog. It helped me bond with Emily. We would get together and do dishes and cook.

It had been a while since we had a big family night me and her making food while Sam, Embry and Seth played and admired Sarah. I had decided to invite Chris to these nights. I mean he was family now. Embry and Sam weren’t too pleased at first but they warmed up to him.

It was funny; I once loathed to be anywhere near them or their house. Now here I was having dinner like one big happy family. I can’t be mad at them. How can I? I have Embry now, I have Sarah. I always thought only an imprint could make me forget, but then Embry and Sarah came along and helped me heal.

A part of me would always love Sam. I knew it, Embry knew it, and nothing we could do would change that. But we have a daughter now, for her sake we have to get along. Plus Embry and Sam are brothers, I can’t sleep with his brother and have his kid and not try to be civil.

It was awkward and bizarre at first. The break up had been horrible and messy. Add my actions during my wolf phase and it was all messed up. But soon it became natural, pleasant, fun. I am glad in a way. Glad I was able to forgive him and Emily and move on. Glad we were able to be a happy family. Glad the fighting and the tears were over.

I arrived at the house I smelled Embry’s scent. Why was he here? I walked in and found them in the living room. Sarah was on the floor playing with wooden blocks. She smiled when she saw me and I bent down to kiss her on the head. I sat down next to Embry and he wrapped his arm around my waist. “Hey guys what’s up?”

“Thanks for coming. This year has been full of surprises and struggles. I want to say thank you both for helping us. I know I was a bit strict and firm with you when we were starting off as wolves. But I am glad despite it all we are a family now.”

“Sam what’s going on?” Embry asked.

“Emily and I have decided we are getting married…tomorrow.”

We stared at them. I mean we knew they were planning to get married, but so soon.
“Are you sure, I mean after everything that’s happened and is going on?” I said.

“Yes. We think especially now everyone needs something to celebrate about. Plus with the fight coming with the Makah’s we want to be wed as soon as possible,” Emily said.

“We want you guys to be in it,” Sam said. “Embry as my brother I want you as my best man.”

“What?! I mean, I’m honored but what about Paul or Jared?”

“Paul and Rachel will be back tonight. Since Billy will be getting out tomorrow Rachel wants to help care for him. You are my brother Embry, I know besides these little get-togethers we haven’t been spending much time together. I want to change that.”

“Wow…thanks I mean I’m honored.”

“And Leah of course you would be the maid of honor,” Emily said.

“Yes, sure,” I said.

“If you guys are sure I mean. What about Dresses and Suites?” I asked.

“Well I kind of asked the Cullens for a favor,” Sam said rubbing the back of his head.

“You? Asked the Cullens for a favor?”

“I know I have no right to ask them for a favor after what I did, but I want Emily to have a perfect wedding,” he said.

“I told him we don’t have to but he insisted,” she said.

Sarah stood up on her legs and walked over to Sam. He picked her up and bounced her in the air and she laughed. I smiled, loving the sight of him and her being so father and daughter like. She was little over two months old but she was now walking like a pro. She was aging fast. Not like Nessie. After she had been born she quickly grew, she looked like she was a year old. Chris said pure wolves develop just a little quicker then humans. He said she wouldn’t have her growth spurt until she had her first menstrual period.

“They agreed to help,” he said. “We gave Alice the measurements and she will have them all by tonight. We agreed to let her set things up to save time.”

“My god, you have no idea what kind of evil you have unleashed,” I said. The thought of Alice helping make a wedding is scary.

“We also invited the Cullens to attend. After everything they have done for us we need to show more trust and respect to them,” Sam said.

“But Sam, you and the others have stronger wolf instincts remember?” Embry said.

“I know. But we need to have them there. They are our allies and extended family. We need to start building bridges between the two tribes,” Sam said.

“What about the flower girl?” I asked.

After that ghost whispering bitch Tessa possessed Claire and it was proved Quil hadn’t touched her, her parents took her away to visit some distant relatives. We had no idea if or when they would be back. Poor Quil was suffering.

“Well we were thinking of having Nessie do it? Another act of good will,” Sam said.

“Sounds like a plan to me,” I said. “Do any of the others know?”

“A few, after we get done talking we were going to spread the word.”

I smiled at them. “Well lets start making calls, we have a wedding to plan and only one day to plan it,” I smiled.

We began to make the calls. Calling all the wolves and elders to let them know. I was a little excited. They had been waiting so long, putting it off month after month because of some disaster or such.

I made a resolution as I dialed the numbers. After the nexus, before the Cullens leave, me and Embry will get married to.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jake P.O.V

I floated in the darkness like a cloud over the earth.

Images passed before my eyes. Memories of my forefathers. Memories of council meetings, memories of imprints forming, memories of running through the woods paws hitting the earth, memories of battles with red eyed vampires, memories of friends and family I never knew, memories of a younger La Push.

I tried to wake up, I tried to force myself to open my eyes and leave this place. But it was like trying to grasp air. No matter how hard I focused I could not free myself.

I continued to float in the memories of my ancestors, seeing what they saw, feeling what they felt. Their thoughts and feelings flowed through me, into me, out of me.

Sometimes the memories were more nightmarish, sometimes they were more pleasant, other times they seemed to dim and I would hope I was finally wake up. But then they would return stronger then ever and my head would burn with the knowledge attaching itself to my mind.

Then the memories stopped and the darkness took form and substance, I wish it hadn’t. I saw La Push. It was being destroyed. Hurricanes, floods, fires, earthquakes, nature itself tore at my home. I saw James Island sink into the ocean, I saw homes destroyed, I saw trees burning, and I saw my people flee in fear. But it wasn’t just La Push, it was the world.

The world, it was going mad! Tearing at itself from the inside out. I saw millions of people dying, unable to escape the onslaught. I fell from the sky and landed on the ground. I stood up and looked around.

There was nothing. The trees had been burnt to ash. I could see some bits and pieces of houses in the distance; there was a deadly silence in the air. Not a soul made a noise. It was all so real. I could feel the ash between my toes; I could smell the death in the air. Bodies littered the ground.

Some had starved, others had been burned alive. Some bodies were being fed on by birds and other carrion eaters. Was I in La Push? Where was I?

“Finally!” a voice said. I turned around and there was a vampire behind me. He was young looking. Fifteen, sixteen at most. I knew he was a vampire because he had the smell of one. He reminded me of the Volturi leaders or those Romanian guys to be exact. His skin was super pale and looked delicate. His eyes were golden like the Cullens but they were milky golden. He looked rather effeminate. At first I wasn’t sure he was a boy but he smelled like one. His hair was jet black and looked like the night time sky compared to his skin.

He had a deep scowl on his face like he was annoyed about something. By his side was a strange creature. It looked like a tapir, only it was much larger, its trunk was longer and the nose was slightly bigger. Its front paws were like a tigers, the tail was like an ox’s and the eyes were like a Rhinos.

“That old fart and wolf bitch kept on jerking you all over dream land, and I don’t deal in dreams I deal with death. Trying to pick you out was like finding a needle in a hay stack. I had to use a Baku to find you and these things are fucking hard to catch!”

“Baku?” I asked.

“Their denizens of the dream realm. The Japs call upon them to devour their nightmares.”

“Japs?”

“Japanese, Orientals. You know, Samurais, ninja’s, sailor moon, tentacle porn? Oh well go on fella feast.” he nudged the Baku and it went running. Its long trunk was glued to the ground and made a sound like a vacuum, where ever the trunk moved the area seemed to disappear, as if it was sucking in the space with its trunk.

“What is it doing?”

“Did you not hear me?” he asked annoyed. “It eats nightmares, I am using it to help wake your big ass up from your coma, things are moving while you sleep Jacob Black, danger approaches, a shadow from the past and it has its sights on you.”

“Is this a dream then? It feels so real,” I said.

“No, this is a vision of the future,” he said.

“What!”

“Calm down, it’s a possible future; it’s not fixed so you’re in luck, oh sick!”

The Baku was hacking and coughing. A bunch of black bile spewed form its mouth. “What’s wrong with it?” I asked.

“Bakus eat bad dreams, but some dreams are too bad for them to eat. This vision is really bad, only a few bites and its getting sick. Just need it to make a few more bites and we can make a door to send you to wakey, wakey land.”

“Where are we? Who are you?” I demanded.

“I am the middle brother Akakios, and you know where we are boy.”

I wanted to argue about the boy thing. He was the one who looked like I should be calling boy. But I remembered the Romanians and Volturi had frail skin and milky eyes because they were really old and didn’t move around much. This kid could be as old as them.
“This can’t be La Push; La Push is beautiful and full of life!”

“If rain and fog is what you call beauty and life you have issues, and its not just La Push, the whole world is a mess, or it will be.”

“No it can’t be true!” I refused to believe it. After we defeated Max things were supposed to be better then this! We were supposed to have our happy endings!

He rolled his eyes. He bent down and picked some thing metal from the ground. “Read it and weep.”

He tossed the bent metal thing to me and I caught it. It was a mailbox covered in dirt. I wiped the dirt from the sides and read what it said. Black…it was my mail box. The mail box that had been gathering mail for years and years.

“No! This can’t be!” I tossed it to the ground and backed up. My foot bumped something and I looked down and my blood went cold. It was a wheel, a small wheel, attached to a chair, and clinging to that chair was a skeleton. “Dad?” I whispered.

“He’s not the only one, even in the vision I can hear them.” he closed his eyes and drew his hands open. “So many dead, so many, the air is thick with the spirits of the dead, I didn’t even sense this much death in world war two, billions have died, their souls cry in pain and sorrow.”

I growled and charged him. I slammed him onto the ground. “Who did this? Who did this!” I screamed, spit flew from my mouth and hit him on the face.

He glared at me and wiped the spit from his face. “You did.”

I stared at him in shock, swift furious anger shot through my body. I was wondering why I hadn’t phased yet, but this was a dream so that was probably why. I grabbed him by his shirt and lifted him up. “Liar!”

“Turn around big boy.”

I turned around. There on an ashen hill atop a pile of dead bodies was…me. Dark storm clouds floated above the other me. I looked at myself and there was evil in my eyes. I thought I knew what evil was but looking in my own eyes I saw a malevolence that made a rush of fear pour through my heart.

I had a grin on my face that sent chills to my bone. I began to phase and my fur was still the same russet color. I was still the same size. But the eyes still had the same evil in them.

“What? Why? Why would I do this?”

I felt a hand on my shoulder and found Akakios. “Come on.” He drew me over to the Baku. It had eaten enough of my dream to make a big white gaping hole. The Baku was wheezing and spitting out black gunk and it looked sickly. “Go on get!” he snapped at the beast. It glared at him and went through the hole. “Bullshit! Can’t believe this, getting involved in others fights, why should we care?”

“What now?” I asked.

“Now you go through the gate the Baku chewed open and wake the fuck up, when you do head north east, all the way to Canada, don’t find us, we’ll find you.”

“But what about you?” I asked. “How will you get out?”

“This is your dream, once you leave it will collapse and I will return to my body. Remember, north east all the way to Canada. Oh and one more thing.” He punched me in the gut and it knocked the wind out of me. He grabbed me by the hair and bent my face dangerously close to his. “Dream or no dream, don’t you ever fucking spit in my face again!”

He tossed me into the white hole; the last thing I saw was the other me, still in wolf form, still atop the pile of bodies, like some macabre throne.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I woke with a start.

I was sweating profusely. The burning sweet smell of vampire was thick in the air. Cold hard hands kept me still “Jacob!” someone shouted.

I looked and saw it was Carlisle. “Carlisle?” I asked.

“It’s me, calm down.”

A wave of calm and ease filled me. I looked up and saw Jasper. “Where is Leah? Where is Sam?” I asked.

“I dropped Leah off at her house,” Edward said.

“Bring her to me, bring me Sam, and bring me someone! Now!”

I showed Edward what I had seen in my head. He gasped and backed away in shock. “Get me everyone now!”

It took a while but soon Sam, Leah, Embry, Chris, Lydia, Carlisle, Edward, Jasper, Merck, Sue; a few elders were with me out behind my house. When Nessie saw me walking out of my room she flew right at me. She almost knocked me back out when she grabbed me. She cried my name and hugged me with enough strength to break a cinderblock. “I thought you would be asleep forever,” she cried.

I picked her up and hugged her. “You knew nothing would keep me from you,” I said.
She wouldn’t let me go. I held her hand while I told everyone what I saw. My dream, my vision, that little boy bitch and his Baku. The only thing I left out was myself being responsible for it all. I saw Edward shoot me an intense look but he said nothing.

“So they are in Canada?” Leah asked.

“Yes, he said keep going north east, don’t find us, we’ll find you.”

“Talk about cryptic as hell,” Chris said.

“To hell with this, Nessie I need you to go inside,” I said.

“But Jake!”

“I need to phase with the others, we need to do this as quickly as possible,” I said giving her a gentle smiled.

She sighed. “Okay, but if you fall asleep again I will be very upset,” she glared at me.
I laughed. “I won’t I swear.” She went inside and we headed for the woods.

Once we were in deep enough we quickly took our cloths off and phased. Within seconds information flooded my head. I knew how my pack had suffered from Max, how poor Tony lost his arms, how Leah had struggled to help everyone, how Sam had been in a rut until Leah snapped him out, how the two packs had been having trouble working, how the wolves had new wolf instincts, how Sam and Emily were getting married tomorrow.

But I was not mentally ready; I was too weak to keep them out. They saw the memories I got from my ancestors, all those images and thoughts and feelings that were to confusing to decipher, they saw my dream, of Akakios, and my vision of the future and myself.

“Jake what the fuck!” Leah said.

“I know, but why would I do that?” I asked.

“Maybe it wasn’t you? Maybe the vampire was messing with you,” Sam said.

“It was me, I know it, and it was me.”

“That was not you, you’re not evil, and that thing was definitely evil,” Embry said.

“Okay so, Tristan is trying to open the nexus, he knows its location and we have till next month to stop him. These brothers are supposed to help us somehow and we now know their location. And Sam and Emily are going to be wed tomorrow? Congratulations.”

“Thanks.”

Alright, everyone, gather the pack and the elders, we are having a meeting now.’
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We gathered all the wolves and the elders. They were all happy to see me, it was like me waking up gave them a good boost of hope.

“Alright everyone listen up. As you know our fight is not yet over, I know we are still reeling from Max, some more then others, but we still have one last fight. Maybe the biggest one we ever will have. We still have plenty of time to prepare, to plan. Tomorrow Sam and Emily will be getting married.” A chorus of claps and whistles broke through the night air. “Tomorrow after the wedding we will celebrate, and then me a few wolves and some of the Cullens will leave for Canada to find some special people to help. I know you are all tired and weary, but this is more then just about La Push, this is about the whole world.”

“This is the Makah’s fault!” One of the wolves said.

A bunch of wolves agreed, growling at the Makah’s and saying all kinds of threats and comments. The Makah’s growled back.

“Enough!” A tremor ran through the wolves. All of them were looking at me with obedient eyes even Leah and the others. “We must not fight! Remember they left their tribe, they came here to help us, they fought with us to save you from Max, and soon they will fight their own pack! This is not a blame game; this is about stopping a mad man and saving the world, because if we do not stand together then we all will be doomed!”

No one said anything; they all continued to watch me, listening, and waiting.

“Now tomorrow the Cullens will be at the wedding, they are our friends and family now. They have fought for us and will fight with us. I expect you all to treat them with both dignity and respect!” I said firmly.

“We obey!” all the Makah’s said.

“For god’s sake will you stop that! You’re freaking me out!”

For the next hour I gave them a pep talk. Telling them my dream, leaving out evil me of course, telling them we would be finding some vampire brothers, the wedding tomorrow, telling them not to fear their new wolf selves, but to learn how to embrace it and live with it in harmony.

Soon the meeting was over. Leah came up to me. “Jake what the hell did you do?”

“Huh?”

“When you told them enough I felt it, it was like I had to obey what you said, and I didn’t even do anything!”

“Yeah man, it was more powerful then anything I ever felt!” Quil said.

“You seem different to,” Embry said. “The way you walk, the way you hold yourself, even your eyes are different, their more like your dads, wise and knowing.”

“It’s weird, I have this strange attraction to you,” Seth said. We all looked at him funny. “Not like that! I have a boyfriend you know! I mean its like when I’m next to you I feel like I can’t keep my eyes off you, and I feel like I have to do everything you say, even if their not orders.”

“Yeah,” Leah said.

“Definitely,” Embry said.

“Come on guys, seriously,” I laughed. “Come on, it can’t be that bad. Seth punch yourself in the face.”

I was just kidding; I didn’t mean anything by it. But Seth made a fist and with out hesitating bunched himself in the face.

“Seth!”

“I couldn’t help it!” he said holding his jaw.

They all stared at me in shock. “What is happening to me?” I asked.

The brothers P.O.V

“Well I hope you’re happy!” Akakios said. “Now those shifters are on their way and will drag us in their shit!”

“We were already dragged in brother of mine Aristides said. “You saw his vision, the whole world will be affected, and we can’t stay in hiding anymore.”

“But we risk exposure, if Aro finds us he’ll never stop until he has us, just like before!”

Aristides put a comforting hand on his brother’s shoulders and gave him a warm smile. “Maybe it’s for the best brothers, all these years we’ve hidden from the world, its time to come from the shadows. Its time to live.”

Akakios looked down; an angry frown graced his face. “I just don’t want you or Ekion to get hurt, you’re all I have.”

Aristides hugged him. “I know everything will be okay.”

Ekion walked up to them, a dazed look on his face. “Brothers? Was I sleeping? I saw visitors coming, they are in awful trouble, can we please help them now?”

“Yes Ekion, we are going to help them,” Akakios said giving his younger brother a smile.

“That’s good, they seem like such nice people, it would be a shame to watch them die.” he smiled and began to dance in circles. “I’m so excited, we never have visitors, I’ll break out my harp and play them a song.”

“What a wonderful idea brother!” Aristides said clapping his hands. “We’ll throw them a feast! We’ll collect some food for the wolves and some animals for the Cullens. Oh I can’t wait to meet a fellow animal eater!”

“Yeah, yeah,” Akakios sighed. “Well have one big fucking party.”
