The Brother I Never Knew
Chapter 36
Fusedtwilight: And now Jamie's break down begins.
Edward P.O.V
I listened as Jamie's other self began to emerge.
Before I watched as Carlisle's questions revealed the boy's disturbing past. It was sad to think that mothers like that woman existed. I knew right away what her problem was. She was weak. And she knew it too; she played mental mind games with him. Manipulating him to depend on her and her alone. Beating him down then building him back up only to continue the process. Sadly it would seem that her technique was working. Before he had been like a block of ice, now cracks were appearing and something hot was pouring out.
I had been right of there being two personalities. I was beginning to here something. And I wasn't too thrilled by what it was thinking. This other Jamie was the werewolf instincts untainted by human thought or reason. And for obvious reasons that was a bad thing.
Jasper P.O.V
The dam was breaking and the flood was coming.
I had to confess the fight he was making to stay in control was admirable. But it was only a matter of time before it came all the way out. I did what I could to slow the process down. I beat at him with waves of calm, control, discipline. The things he needed.
It was working a little, but this other presence was hell bent on getting out. And what would he do when that happened? The answer was simple.
What would any out of control werewolf do in a house full of vampires?
Jamie P.O.V
I feel so sick.
I haven't felt like this since I first began to phase. I was hot and cold, I felt physical pain, and my head was killing me. Like something raw and red was trying to tear itself out of my head.
"Kill." A voice in my head said.
I know this voice all to well. I have had a similar voice in my head for years. A cold rational voice full of reason and practicality. But this voice was hot. I could feel the heat in my head. Like my head was on fire. I was feeling things, thinking things I shouldn't be thinking. Like killing the three creatures in front of me.
"Jamie are you okay?" Carlisle asked seeing my physical reaction.
"Kill it! Rip it!" the voice raged.
"Shut up!" I screamed.
I had a mental image of it in my mind. A monster in a black abyss. A monster of teeth, fur, claws. It's coat white as the moon with black markings. I had done research when I phased. I found my wolf form was not native to Washington. All the other wolves were like timber wolves which were the native wolves of the area. But my form was more like the wolves who live further north. Was this a coincidence or a result of my condition? All I know was in my mind I was staring at me wolf and it stared back.
When I saw the wolf surrounded by darkness I thought of that old quote 'When you stare into the abyss the abyss stares back.' I know what that meant now. My wolf was snarling at me, showing teeth the size of daggers.
"Out!" It said.
"No," I said firmly.
"Out!" It snarled.
"No! I am the vessel, I am the forest in which you dwell beast. You obey me not the other way around!" I said to it.
A wave of calm and clarity came over me and I was back in the office with the Cullens. I shot up and the vampires followed suit. I had to get away; their presence was agitating the wolf.
"This is over." I said.
I spun around and headed for the door. I had to get out of this house; this was such a bad idea. All these years I built my mind into an impenetrable fortress. A place of isolation untouched by the muck of the world. And in the span of a few moments these creatures had torn my walls down.
This was bad, I was trying to make an alliance with them and if they saw me loose control they might rethink the offer I made them. I could not let that happen. I was serious when I told them things were tense in Sam's pack. I had used that when I sought Bobby in the others. They were young and eager to play hero they were to stupid to think of the consequences of their actions.
I know a storm is coming and if I am to survive I must make alliances. I am a survivor, always have been. My mother taught me how to survive.
"And then she left you," The voice said.
"Shut up!" I hissed.
Carlisle P.O.V
I watched as Jamie left.
There was something in his eyes that had not been there before. A look of fear and a inner struggle that I was not witness too. But I knew someone who might.
"He has another personality." Edward said.
"What?" I asked shocked.
"His human and wolf selves are separate. He has been able to keep it in check but the questions about his mother caused his control to falter and now the beast is trying to get out."
"Are you telling me he is a sociopath and suffers from D.I.D? I asked horrified.
"Yes," Jasper said. "And when we say there are two separate beings we mean it. I can feel the emotions from the creature in him; it's like a real animal."
"And it even has its own thoughts. It wanted to kill the three of us but he was fighting it," Edward said.
"He won't phase will he?" I asked horrified at the thought.
"No, I used my powers to help calm him, he has gained some control back." Jasper said.
"And he is leaving to get away from our smell which should help. Edward said.
"Still we should have him watched in case he losses control, we need to let the others know right away. I said.
"Agreed." The both said at the same time.
I decided to quiz them later about his reactions later, right now we had a more pressing issue to deal with. The thought of an out of control werewolf running around was a very disturbing thought indeed.
Leah P.O.V
"Oh yeah, I am the man baby!" Emmet said doing a weird victory dance.
The Jenga tower was seven feet tall. Emmett had managed to leave only one block in the center and was sure no one could move any brick without causing it to fall.
"Your turn little sister." he challenged Alice.
"Oh Emmett when will you learn?" she asked rolling her eyes.
She went up to the block in the middle and with speed impossible for a human to see quickly removed the block. The top didn't topple instead it simply fell down a spot using the next space of blocks to support it. Emmett stared open mouthed as she placed the piece on the top.
"Oh come on! No vamp powers!" Emmett said pouting.
"Give it up Emmett, you'll never beat me at anything." Alice mocked him.
"You want to go little sister." he said flexing his muscles trying to intimidate her.
Alice smiled and ran at Emmett grabbed his arm and used it to toss him on the ground. When Emmett hit the ground the shock of the impact cause the Jenga tower to topple and before it landed on Emmett Alice jumped out of the way and Emmett got slammed by the Jenga tower.
"Uncle Emmett got pwned again," Nessie said.
Jake burst into laughter at that. Emmett taught Nessie that word; Edward had been trying to discourage Nessie from not using proper English. But seeing Emmett Cullen not only beaten by Alice and buried by a Jenga tower only to have his niece make a comment he taught her was priceless.
"Ha, I win!" Emmett shouted jumping up and sending Jenga blocks everywhere.
"How did you win? You just lost to someone who is a tenth of your size!" Rose said.
"But Alice caused the tower to fall, thereby loosing the game. My secret plan has worked! I am the king!"
"You're the king of stupid Emmett." Alice said. She grabbed a Jenga block and chucked it off Emmett's head.
I got to hand it to the Cullens, they may be undead bloodsuckers but they know how to have a good time.
The good time came to a screeching halt when Jamie came down the stairs. I could tell there was something wrong. His body was shaking like it was about to phase. His eyes were angry, something I have never seen him be. He was deep in thought because he didn't acknowledge us at all.
"Jamie!" I called trying to get his attention.
He ignored me and was heading for the door, but in order to do that he had to pass us and that was when all hell broke loose.
Nessie decided Jamie should play with us. She picked up a Jenga piece and walked right into his path and was about to ask him to play before anyone could stop her.
Jamie was too preoccupied with his thoughts he didn't see her in time and bumped into her. He hit her so hard she landed on her butt which wasn't serious. But when Jamie's attention was focused on her something in him snapped.
He growled at her and it was not a human growl. His eyes were furious and lethal looking. Within seconds the Cullens were behind Nessie, all glaring and hissing at Jamie.
Jake scooped Nessie up and pulled her away from the confrontation. Jamie paid no attention to them, all his attention was held by the Cullens. My instincts were screaming at me 'Fight!' but I pushed those thoughts aside. Jamie was now growling and glaring at the Cullens who responded in kind.
A few seconds ago they were so human, playing Uno and Jenga. Now here they were snarling and hissing like a bunch of wild animals. And Jamie was right in their sight.
"Jamie stop!" I said walking to stand between him and the Cullens. Something told me it was stupid to come between them but if anything happened to Jamie and a Cullen was responsible for it there would be hell to pay. Sam may have Jamie on his shit list but he is still his brother.
Jamie looked at me, and then closed his eyes. He took a deep breath in and out. He seemed to calm down. He opened his eyes and they were cold.
"Move." he said using his hand to push me aside and headed for the door.
I let him go. What else could I do? Something in him had obviously snapped. Having a temperamental wolf stuck in a house full of vampires didn't seem like a good idea. What the hell happened? Why was he acting like this now?
"Leah!" I heard Carlisle say.
He, Jasper and Edward came rushing down the stairs. Edward went to go check on Nessie. (Who was perfectly fine, she was just upset thinking Jamie was mad at her for bumping into him.)
"Carlisle what was that all about?" I asked.
"We should take this outside." He said.
Me and Jake followed him and the others outside, Jamie was no where to be seen. Carlisle quickly told us what he and the other's had discovered during the therapy session. I listened in horror as they explained exactly what was wrong with Jamie.
"Another personality?" Jake asked in shock.
"And it's coming out now, he has suppressed it all this time but now it's about to get loose," Edward said.
"He is fighting it, he left because our presence was damaging his control." Jasper said.
"So that is why he can resist the Alpha command? Because while his human mind is in control that shit wont work on him." I said.
"But if the wolf is in control would it work?" Jake asked.
"In theory, but there is no way to know for sure." Edward said.
"Wait, if the wolf is in control doesn't that mean it will do what ever a wolf normally does?" I asked.
"If you mean if the wolf comes into full control will it find the girl it imprinted on? Then yes, I could hear its thoughts, it needs her so badly." Edward said.
"Shit! I'm calling Sam, he needs to know," I said. I grabbed my cell and dialed Sam's number. God what else could go wrong?
.......
I know, I sound like Emmett.
Sam P.O.V
I hanged up my phone.
Leah called and told me what has happened with Jamie. Not only does my brother have one mental disorder he has two. I cursed my father for the trillionth time. Once again I had to clean up after his mess. But this gave me a unique opportunity to fix what is wrong with Jamie.
If his wolf was trying to get under control then all I have to do is give it a little help. I think the only way Jamie will find happiness and cure his illness is if he accepts who and what he is. And the only way he can do that is to accept imprinting.
I had to be quick though, and careful. I had no idea how unstable Jamie's wolf was. But if it is like any of ours its temperament would likely be very low. There would be risks but if I was to make things right I had to be swift.
"Alex, Ashley," I said turning to the pair. "It's time to put the plan into affect."
Jamie P.O.V
My head hurt so badly. I could actually feel the blood throbbing in my skull.
I was in the woods getting as far away from the Cullens as possible. I hadn't meant to scare the girl, but I wasn't paying attention and when I saw it was her, the beast rose up and wanted to attack her.
I came so close to phasing and hurting her, and that would have been my death warrant.
"What is wrong with me?" I said out loud to no one in particular.
I was not expecting a reply.
"It's okay sweetie, your just a little sick." A disturbingly familiar voice said.
"Whose there!" I said looking around quickly.
The woods were dark and deep. I listen with my ears but heard nothing unusual. I smelled water, bark, earth, and the scent of animals and the underlying smell of vampire which made the beast strain against my mind. I was still in vampire territory, I had to get home. As much as I hate to admit it Sam might be able to help me.
"You don't need him Jamie, he'll just drag you done and try to wrap you in the chains of his rule." the voice said again.
"Whose there!" I shouted again.
"Oh Jamie," the voice chastised. "Has it been so long you have forgotten the voice of your mother?"
"What? My mother is gone! Show yourself!" Who ever decided to play mind games with me was going to suffer…slowly.
"So violent, no wonder you never had friends."
I spun around and there she was. My mother. She was just as I remembered her. Five foot six, white skin, brown hair, brown eyes, a round nose and full cheeks that made her look like an Angel when ever she smiled.
"I leave you alone for one moment and you get yourself in so much trouble."
"You've been gone for month's, what are you doing here?" I demanded.
"My baby needed me, look how big you've gotten," She smiled. "My little boy grew up," She pouted.
"Shut up! You shouldn't be here, how did you find me?" I demanded. The pain in my head was at a pitch. I felt like I was about to pass out at any moment.
"I told you, all we have is each other, as long as we stick together no one can hurt us, remember?"
"Yeah I remember, right before you broke a bottle upside my head," I growled.
"That was the old me baby, I've changed," She said.
Something was wrong. I saw her, but there was something not right, where was her scent? Where was the sound of a heart beat?
"You've been through so much. This wolf thing, your brother, and I know you have been popping pills again. Seriously Jamie do you want to be like your father? A dead beat no good nothing lazy sack of shit who-
"SHUT UP!" I roared. I grabbed a rock and chucked it at her. But there was nothing there to be hit by the rock but a soon as it hit the tree the bark exploded into a shower of chips.
I looked around for my mother, but she was no where to be seen. "What's happening to me?" I said. Then the pain hit me, sharp claws were digging through my mind.
"God, someone help me!" I pleaded.
"Just let go sweetie."
"No! I am in control, not this thing!"
"This thing is you."
"No, I am me."
"Stubborn child, your inability to give in and surrender is what causes you this pain."
"Like how you giving in to your temptations made you so happy? How all those nights of drinking and one night stands brought you or me happiness?"
I felt her hands on my face, gently rubbing it in soothing motions. "You poor boy, I put you through so much. I was proud too baby. Too proud to accept the help of others. That was my weakness. Just let go, and everything will be better."
"No, I will not surrender who I am," I said.
"Just let go."
"Go away you miserable bitch!" I screamed.
"Jamie!" a new voice said.
I looked up, it was Sam. And he was not alone. Alex and Ashley were both with him. Sam was saying something, but I wasn't listening. My attention was all on Ashley. And before I could stop it, the wolf took control and I feel into darkness.
