Storks and Wolves
Chapter 27

fusedtwilight:Okay i would like to thank animegirlkiki for being my beta and i would like to thank all you readers for being so freaken awesome! I was going to make this longer but i decided to break it into two parts to make the story last longer. I love this story so much the thought of ending it sadns me. And now the meeting with the Makah's.

Leah P.O.V
Can I not catch a break?
I mean I make peace with Embry about our pseudo engagement, and then Sam pops up out of no where and is having a silent but obvious hissy fit.
The five of us were in Jake’s newly repaired Rabbit. Repaired surprisingly by Rose. (She did it because she wanted the satisfaction of Jake owing her big time).
Jake had been hesitant about having me back in the car but he was my only ride. We followed the others driving to the little meeting. We drove because the elders were coming with us. I sat in the front and Seth, Quil and Embry sat in the back. I would like to sit with Embry but there was nor room in the back for two big guys and a very pregnant girl.
I looked out the window as we drove. I tried to spot any of the wolves following us, I had to hand it to Sam, he had trained these kids pretty well, and I almost didn’t notice them…almost.
I saw Sam before we drove. He had very carefully ignored me and Embry while he talked to Jake. He was having Jared run with the wolves, the younglings were good, but Sam wasn’t comfortable leaving them unattended without some supervision. I felt a little bit better knowing that too.
I wonder what Sam was thinking right now?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sam P.O.V
Once again I was consumed with a feeling of envy.
I should be happy, Leah was finally moving on. Something we had all wished would happen, so why was I feeling like this?
I remembered what Sue had said that night when Leah told me. How a wolf will still have feelings for a former love even if they have imprinted. And it’s true, a small part of me still loves Leah, but a larger part loves Emily.
But all it took was a small part to make me feel this way. A small part to potentially add disaster to an already disastrous situation.
I was also angry. Angry at Leah, Embry, myself, the Makahs, old Quil, my father, and on and on.
I was angry at my father for not being faithful and not being a real father, nothing new with those feelings.
I was angry at Old Quil and the Makahs for their secrets and deceptions. It always hurts when people you trust lie and deceive to you.
I was angry at Leah and Embry for being so careless. Did they not see a familiar pattern? Did they not know history has a way of repeating itself?
It was all too quick, this little pseudo proposal is proof of that. What if they get married and have kids and Embry has children? God I thought it was bad when I broke up with Leah, I shudder to think what something like that would do to her.
And how would that affect the baby? How would that affect my daughter? Leah is right; I have no control over her life. But I have every right to control my daughters until she is ready to control it herself. Leah may not like it but I will do everything in my power to make sure she and our daughter are safe and sound.
But I had to worry about all that later, now I had to worry about the meeting. I was already worried enough about Leah being here. I made damn sure I took every precaution for this. The two months we took planning this think I have constantly planed moves, strategies, out comes, and so on.
I went over everything with the elders and Jake and still even now I was going through scenarios in my head.
In the event of a fight the elders (And Leah) will be immediately evacuated. Jared and the others would be waiting in wolf form keeping an eye on things, if the Makah’s planed anything funny or were up to something Jared would have one of the wolves stationed nearby let us know.
God I wished for the old days. The days when all I had to worry about was earning money for college and what I should get Leah for her birthday.
If I had a choice to go back in time and…I don’t know change something would I? And if I could what would I change? Would I warn myself about imprinting and tell myself not to get close to Leah so she won’t be hurt? Would I go and make sure I never slept with her that night we conceived our daughter? Would I run away to make sure I never met Emily? No for the latter, I can’t imagine a life without Emily. I know I would make sure she was in my life always.
On top of all this I had my new found fatherhood to worry about. Like what we were going to tell the norms. La Push is a small place, full of nosey ass people. If Leah has a baby, Leah Clearwater daughter of Harry Clearwater people will want to know who the daddy is. And if Leah doesn’t tell then rumors will fly left and right.
But if we tell them the truth people will assume we had an affair. I do NOT want my daughter growing up with a reputation for being the result of an affair. No child should have to grow up with that.
So what was I going to do? How was I going to protect my daughter from ridicule?
One thing at a time, one person at a time.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Leah P.O.V
“Why in the hell couldn’t just have met them somewhere more sensible instead of the middle of the woods?” I complained as we walked towards the meeting place.
We all walked along a deer trail through the woods. We were halfway between La Push and Makah. The elders of both tribes decided to go someplace neutral, since neither side was in a trusting mood. I thought we should have gone to Port, but the elders decided since emotions were running high, and there was a chance of a fight it would be best to do this away from human eyes.
Right now I could care less about that; all this walking was killing me. I knew I was going to be sore later, both my feet and my back suffer from the weight I carry from the baby.
“You want me to carry you?” Embry asked.
“I’m pregnant, you can’t carry me,” I said.
“Then I’ll carry you bridal style,” He grinned at me.
As much as I liked the idea of that, my pride overran my pain. “Billy is letting Jake carry him,” Embry said.
Jake was giving his dad a piggy back ride while Seth carried Billy’s wheel chair. “Billy is a cripple, he needs someone too carry him.” I said.
“I can hear you.” Billy muttered turning his head to glare at us.
“Come on Leah no point in making yourself hurt just for a matter of pride.” Embry said.
“It’s not a matter of pride; it’s a matter of image.” I lied. “If we show up to this meeting with me being carried I’ll look weak. And the last thing I’ll look is weak to them.”
“You’ll look weak on the ground or in the air.” Paul said. “Either way you’re still pregnant and slow as a turtle.” He laughed. While he laughed I grabbed a stone and chucked it at the back of his head. I watched in satisfaction as it zoomed in the air and hit his head with a thud then bounced off. “OW! The hell!” He shouted turning to glare at me.
I flipped him the bird and he growled at me. “Enough Paul.” Sam said.
“But she…”
“You started it, and now I’m finishing it, were almost there and the last thing we need right now is bickering.” He said with a tone of finality.
I and Embry stared at Sam as he walked ahead of us. He never looked at us while he chastised Paul. Why was I feeling so nervous around him so much? So what he heard me and Embry talking about marriage. Him and Emily are getting married, why shouldn’t I?
While Embry was helping me walk the other wolves were helping the older council members in the walk. Quil was with his grandpa, ever since he dropped the ball on the whole cancer issue Quil has been keeping a keen eye on his sire. Old Quil wasn’t doing too well, he was thinner and more frail looking then I have ever seen him. I wonder if it was a good idea to bring him? He looked like he was ready to keel over at any moment.
We stayed silent for a while, wile we walked. But there was a tension in the air, so thick I could smell it. Or maybe that was the pregnancy playing hell with my senses.
I tried to hear and see the wolves but I couldn’t. And if I couldn’t then that means they are nearby but are keeping a distance as not to draw any attention.
It wasn’t until I was finally going to take Embry up on his offer when we finally broke through the trees and found ourselves in a meadow. Why does it seem like all the important things that happen to us happen in a meadow?
And to my immediate satisfaction the Makahs were here too. As soon as Billy was in his chair we filed into formation. Elders in the front, wolves in the back. I was right behind mom and she gently squeezed my hand. “I wish to god you weren’t here. I’m so worried a fight is going to happen and something will happen to you and the baby,” She said.
“Everything will be fine mom.” I said.
“Famous last words.” She said back. And I thought I was the only cynic in the family.
While both sides began to walk toward each other I took the time to analyze the competition. There were the elders who were in front of their wolves. I guess they felt safer with them behind watching their backs. Then again so were our elders.
The wolves would have been obvious to spot in any event. Tall, buff, and the way they carried themselves. Confident, graceful, moving in a synch that none of the elders could move in. And the scent coming from them. Musk, earth, woods, moss, wolf.
There were two wolves in particular who held my attention. They were a bit older looking then the others. I noticed they were throwing glares at Old Quil who did his best to glare back. But given his condition wasn’t very threatening. However Quil was doing good at glaring back for his gramps.
Okay time for a head count. Eight elders and 1...2...10 wolves? Shit. There were only nine of us. Luckily Sam had thought of having Jared and the others in the woods.
Suddenly a howl ripped through the night. What was wrong? Had Jared and the others detected the presence of more wolves? Were we under attack? I was trying not to freak out but these god damn hormones were making me nervous as hell.
One of the tall older wolves leaned over to one of the elders and whispered something. “Well Billy looks like we have both been caught red handed.” the elder said.
“I assume you have wolves patrolling as well?” Billy asked. “So much for trust huh Tristan?”
“Great minds think alike,” Tristan said shrugging his shoulders. “We should have all our wolves come out in the open so as to avoid a fight.”
“Very well, Sam.” Billy said.
Sam nodded and looked to Paul who went into the woods. The tall older Makah wolf went running into the woods as well. After a few minutes they both came back. Within minutes the woods were filled with the sounds of mighty paws hitting the ground. Then silence, then I could hear the sound of them coming out of the woods. One by one all our wolves joined us. I smiled to myself enjoying our overwhelming numbers.
That feeling dissipated when I turned to look at the Makah’s. They had 10…20…50 wolves. Fuck me!
“Well shall we begin?” Tristan asked.
“But where to begin?” Billy asked. His face was composed and neutral. There was little anxiety coming of him. He was the chief.
I looked at Jacob and marveled at how his face was like his father’s, composed, fearless. To think Jake used to be such a bumbling, whiney, love struck little punk. Now here he is all bad ass and ready to roll.
“Let’s start with a question. Now that I see all your wolves I can see you too have suffered a bit of a wolf boom. More then half a year ago we noticed an extremely large amount of Vampires come around the area, can you explain this?” Tristan asked.
Billy explained everything. Along with some detail from Jake and Sam. The elders said nothing as they listened to the talk. They gasped at all the right parts though. And by the time the story was done they all looked either pissed or surprised.
“A half vampire? How is that possible?” One of the Makah elders asked.
“Forget that how could a wolf imprint on a vampire at all?” Asked another. Half vampire dumbass, get it right.
“The vampires have a hierarchy?” One asked looking flabbergasted.
“Two wolf packs?” Technically three adding the Makah’s.
“All that fuss for one half-breed?”
Jake lost some of his cool. He narrowed his gaze on the one who said that.
“Enough,” Billy said sternly. “We have answered your questions, now you will answer ours.”
“Only fair.” Tristan said.
“Quil has informed us of everything, care to explain yourselves?” Billy said cocking an eyebrow.
“We never told you because we didn’t want to cause fight.” Tristan said.
“Then maybe your ancestors should have thought about that before they decided to steal the seed of our warriors.” Mom said.
Seed? Who the hell says seed any more? I hate it when someone refers to sperm as ‘seed’ it sounds so…dirty. Which it should I guess it should. But I mean how can you compare gardening to birth? Because let me tell you it’s easier to have a garden then a baby.
“We didn’t steal anything. We lost our original protectors and needed some new ones.” One of the Makah elders said.
“So you got our warriors drunk and had your women fornicate with them and never told us of the children?” Mom said.
“You may have tried to reclaim them if we told you, we couldn’t risk it,” Tristan said.
“Couldn’t risk it? You stole our children from us!” She said pointing a finger at Tristan. “Those young men never knew they had children out there, you can’t possibly justify that!”
“Now Sue-Sue,” Tristan said trying to calm mom down. Sue-Sue? What the hell is that about?
“Don’t you Sue-Sue me Tristan Thorn,” Mom said.
“Don’t be mad at me, I had laws and traditions to uphold. Harry knew too and he understood...”
I felt a streak of anger at the mention of my father. “And if it wasn’t for the fact he is already dead I would have killed him myself,” Mom said.
Yeah, Dad was so whipped when he was with mom. He never, ever told her no.
“I understand your anger Sue, I really do. But we swore all this to secrecy.” Tristan said.
“And we are good at keeping secrets, unlike others,” The tall one said shooting Old Quil a nasty glare.
“Kiss my ass Brian,” Old Quil shot back. “Susan is gone, and I no longer have any reason to hold the secret.”
“I haven’t seen you in a long time, how did you know it was me?” Brian asked.
“Your voice hasn’t changed too much, and you have aged very gracefully. I assume phasing?” Old Quil asked.
“Of course, how else have I stayed strong and fit while you have obviously decayed,” Brian said with a nasty smile.
“Having cancer does make one a little thing you dick.” Old Quil said. Wow two swear words... Old Quil obviously doesn’t like this guy.
“Watch your mouth asshole, that’s my grandfather.” Quil said.
“And we are your uncles.” The other taller older man said.
“Uncles? You two are Brian and Sid?” Quil asked surprised.
“The same one’s” Sid said with a smile. “We were never allowed to meet you, but Susan sent us pictures of you.” He turned to look at Old Quil. “I am sorry to here of your condition old friend, and I am sorry if we have caused you any problems.”
“Nothing I haven’t brought on myself,” Old Quil said with a nod. “And I will soon be with Susan again so I am not too sad. Being an old man and having a bad liver and kidney is a bitch.”
They both laughed at that. “I am happy to see you still have some humor.” Sid said.
“You must be Leah,” One of the wolves said.
He was like any of the other wolves, except he was a bit more wide shouldered and his hair was cut military like. And his eyes were a shade of blue, and his skin was a lighter shade. I wonder if he had some white in his blood? “My name is Chris and I am the pack leader.” He turned to Quil “And your cousin, Sid is my father. We were very interested to hear a female was born.”
And why is that?” Embry asked getting all protective of me.
“You must be Embry Call.” Chris said eyeing Embry.
“How do you know?” Embry asked surprised.
“Your name was brought up a bit. We knew your mother had a thing for Joshua Uley. We never knew for sure if he was your father, but the fact you are here proves he was. And we have not had a female since my Aunt Topaz,” Chris said.
“You have had many females before right? Why is that?” I asked.
“We don’t know,” Chris said shrugging his shoulders. “Makah has always been a place the female of our species. We owe our strong wolf bloodlines to them.”
“We were going to interfere during the Volturi incident. So many of our people were phasing, we thought we would accidentally reveal ourselves,” Tristan said. “But they left and we were able to help deal with our growing wolf population. We were kind of hoping a female would be born and we could arrange something to help insure future generations but sadly no female was called or so we thought.”
“What do you mean ‘Arrange’?” I asked.
“Let me tell you all how we do things in Makah,” Tristan said.

fusedtwilight: Ohhh what does Tristan mean? And why does he call Sue Sue-Sue? Stay tuned for the next part, and please review.
