Fusedtwilight: Thanks to animegirlkiki for betaing.

Jack P.O.V

So yeah apparently I am a healer….laaaame.

It has its uses I admit, but I really wanted laser eye beams. I know that isn’t a vampire power you have heard of but come on. I want to break people not heal them.

Nessie was still in my room but Jasper and Alice had taken me into Carlisle’s study. Jasper was going over Carlisle’s books trying to find any mention of any vampires with healing abilities.

He had only found two mentioned. “You just laid hands on the bird and it healed?” he asked.

“Yeah, I felt this weird warmth in my hands, then I heard the sound of its heart beating faster and the bones fixing, then it was healed.”

“I am so happy for you Jack!” Alice said hugging me. “Healing others is such a useful power to have, think of all the lives you could save!”

“I’d rather have laser eye beams.” I said.

“This is amazing, we should have Eleazar come down to see what the extent his power is, and according to these the two vampires who the Volturi recorded with the power had varying degrees of this power. One could only heal minor wounds; the other could heal humans who were infected with venom.”

“Wow a vampire saving humans, just like Carlisle,” I said.

“Actually he used it on the humans he kidnapped for a continuous blood supply.” Jasper said.

“Oh.”

“If only we had some test subjects to test the limits of your power,” Jasper said.

“I say we use Edward and Rose,” I said.

“Jack their as healthy as an undead horse.” Alice said.

“I know, but I figure they could meet with a few accidents that might prove near fatal that require my immediate attention.” They stared at me with humorless eyes. “Oh come on, you have to admit with them gone the atmosphere in the place would lighten up a lot. At least I am throwing ideas out there.” I muttered.

“I will just call Eleazar and see if he can visit,” Jasper said with a small smirk.

“What is so special about him?” I asked.

Eleazar was a member of the Alaskan vampire clan. They like the Cullens were veggie vampires. (Veggie vampires, really? Who the fuck came up with that? That is such a retarded usage of the word) Jasper and the Cullens were real close to them, they were like extended family.

Nessie showed me a few memories of them. They seemed cool, like another version of the Cullens. Only they were all older then the Cullens. The blonde sisters were thousands of years old (But still looking fine! Thank you vampire venom!) The rest were centuries old.

“Eleazar has the power to see what the power a vampire has. Humans he can tell if they will have a power but he can’t really get a sense of what the power will be. He will be able to help us unlock the secrets of your power really quickly,” Jasper said.

“I don’t get it, why can I heal? I mean how did that carry over from my human life? I was around sick people a lot before….myself being one of them.”

“What do you mean?” Alice asked.

“Well I had a weak immune system. I didn’t have a disease or anything, but I got lung infections like bronchitis, ammonia, tonsillitis, stuff like that real easily.”

“Maybe, you had a strong desire to heal yourself and somehow it transmuted to healing others since vampires heal any wound save those caused from venom or having a limb ripped off,” Alice said.

“That’s a little far fetched.” I said.

“This isn’t an exact science Jack. We don’t know why some get powers and others don’t. My visions were in my human life and were increased when I became a vampire. Bella’s shield was active when she was human, no mind powers worked on her, when she became a vampire she was able to mold her shield and expand it. Even project it onto others so her mind could be exposed,” Alice said.

“God I thought being a vampire would be simple, sleep all day, party all night, suck blood all the time, how simple is that?” I asked.

She leaned down and kissed me on the cheek.

“Uh what the hell?” I asked.

“We heard you and Nessie,” Alice smiled. “You can be so cute when you’re not being a foul mouthed brat.”

“You can be fun to be around when your not being a bossy know it all,” I shot back.

“I am a know it all,” she stuck her tongue out at me playfully.

“It was really nice what you did for Nessie Jack,” Jasper said. “Edward was growing concerned with her thoughts on the matter of her existence. You’re the closest she has to someone she can understand about this, well you and Nauel.”

“Why me?” I asked.

“Your age. She feels a lot of envy for you. You will be a child forever but you are still her superior, you have a better chance at fighting vampires then she ever will.”

“Yeah we established that,” I said.

“I think since you being a stranger…and rather blunt you wouldn’t try to comfort her or tell her it would all be okay. She has a surprisingly sophisticated mind for her age. She doesn’t like it when we try to treat her like a child, but given the nature of his existence it is hard to do so. But you who are a child, a newborn, a stranger, and a disturbingly honest person would not try to baby her, you would treat her like an equal and she would tell you her worries and fears and not worry about you smothering her with love or affection.”

“That girl doesn’t need smothering, she is too smart for that. I mean for god sake she can play Mozart like a pro, how many toddlers can do that? Not to mention she can bring down a full grown moose.”

“At least she is more durable then a human; thank god she hasn’t inherited Bella’s clumsiness. Jasper can you imagine what would it be like if her bad luck was intensified by the venom?” Alice laughed.

“I had such fears when we planned to turn her,” Jasper shuddered. “Such chaos that could be summoned by a single human made more powerful by vampire venom, a nightmare even I feared.”

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Fuck you and the horse you rode in you steroid abusing fuck!” I shouted at Sam.

It was the wee hours of the morning and we had found some unwanted guests. Sam Uley (A.K.A Douchbag Alpha of the retarded anti-wolf pack) followed by his buds Paul and Jared. (A.K.A Bitch 1 and bitch 2) Showed up.

He was bitching about that Brady wolf who jumped me. Something about his head being so badly fractured that he was still bed ridden and he was holding the Cullens responsible for not controlling their out of control new born.

Now I had been willing to just listen as he bitched but when he referred to me as new born and not even him, and talked over me like I was not there I got pissed. I was already pissed he was giving the Cullens attitude.

“You got a problem with me you take it up with me!”

All three of them growled at me. Then a wave of calm and I knew Jasper was working his magic on us. “I tried to tell your boy it was a mistake that I was new and I didn’t know I was in your land but the little prick kept on attacking me. Then he rips off Jasper’s arm so yeah I cracked him good over the head, maybe if you wolves weren’t hearing impaired this wouldn’t have happened.”

The one called Paul walked right up to me. I had to crane my head up to look at him. I was so small compared to him because of his freakish tallness. I mean I was like a whole foot smaller then Alice.

Great as soon as Nessie grows up I’ll be the smallest…at least I will still be faster then Edward.

“Our job is to protect our land from monsters like you. For generations we killed any leech that dared walk on our land until Ephraim made the mistake of making this treaty. You were a vampire with red eyes on our land, how was he to know you weren’t running away to snack on some humans? Unlike Black we have a zero tolerance policy for you people.”

“Are you a homosexual?” I asked.

His eyes bugged out in anger. “What?!”

“I asked if you were a homosexual? Because you seem to enjoy standing behind tall, dark and fucktarded there, you checking out his ass while you stand behind him?”

“Not again,” I heard Jasper sigh.

“I am not a fag!” he shouted.

“Oh so now your discriminating against the homos? What you to insecure in your own sexuality you got to discriminate against your people?”

“There not my people!”

“Of course not, you aint out of the closet yet, your still and ine not and outie huh?” I asked.

I felt someone grab my shoulder. I looked behind and saw it was Edward who was glaring at me.

“You are not helping!” He hissed.

“You need to get your hand off my shoulder!” I snapped and smacked his hand away.

“Enough!” Carlisle said firmly. “Sam we apologized for the incident. Jack ran off and we had not informed him of where the boundary lines were. I treated Brady myself and I can tell you he will be fine, another day or two and his skull will be good as new.”

“That is not the point Carlisle. A member of our pack was still hurt by one of yours; there must be some punishment for this. I have gone to the elders on no longer allowing the Cullens, even Nessie on our land.”

“What!” I shouted. “Come on that is a crock of mph.”

Edwards hands clamped over my mouth. “Shut up!”

“Sam please, Jake loves taking Nessie to the beach, don’t punish her for a simple mistake,” Carlisle begged.

“This was not a simple mistake! One of my wolves is bed ridden for what your sons did to him! This proves how dangerous you all are and that you need to stay off our land!”

I tried to get Edward to let me go but he wouldn’t. “Edward tell them I can heal the kid! Maybe we can negotiate or something!” I shouted.

“Sam, we have found out that Jack has the power to heal,” Edward said. “Last night he healed a bird’s broken neck. Maybe he can repair Brady’s skull as compensation.”

“Do you really think I would allow him anywhere near Brady let alone La Push! He’s a newborn for god sakes! A new born with an obviously short fuse!”

“I’ll show you a short fuse you cocksucker!” I shouted.

Too bad Jake isn’t here now. He was out somewhere with Nessie, unaware what was happening right now. Because of me.

“Does Jake know what you are planning?” Carisle asked.

“He will soon enough,” Sam said.

“Fucking sneak!”

I tried to say something but Edward wouldn’t let me go. Finally I had to use my new born strength to get him off. “Look just because I fucked up doesn’t mean you should punish Nessie, she wouldn’t hurt a fly, and she’s never done anything dangerous or aggressive!”

“She is part vampire and that makes her dangerous enough,” he said.

“Oh what a load of shit! Your just using me as an excuse to make the rest of their lives more miserable!” I said.

“You’re vampires can’t get much more miserable then that,” Jared sneered.

“At least we don’t lick our own dicks you wolf bastard!”

He stepped forward and growled. I hissed at him. Wanting to fight, needing to fight. I wanted to kill him, to rip him to shreds, to hurt him for hurting me and mine.

I felt a hand on my shoulder and saw it was Jasper I calmed down and backed off. “I’m sorry,” I whispered.

“It’s okay,” he whispered back.

The wolves left promising to let us know how the ruling would go. I ran out to the woods, careful to stay as far away from La Push as I could, and I let out some steam. I knocked over trees, I smashed rocks to dust, and I screamed my frustration. I just let loose all my anger and frustration on the woods. Mother Nature pissed her pants I think.

By the time I was done the woods were totaled. Like a bunch of bulldozers had come through and tore the hell out of the place. But it was just little old me having a fit.

“You okay?” Alice asked appearing like magic.

“Hell no I’m not okay, I’m pissed, I feel guilty, I hate Nessie is going to have to suffer for my mistakes. I want to tear those fuckers apart!”

She walked up to me and hugged me. Since I was a foot shorter then her I was able to lean my head against her chest. I hugged her back and cried. Once again no tears but I still cried. Feeling her comfort me made me feel a little bit better. I hadn’t been hugged like this in a while.

My mom hugged me like this when I came home from school and I was upset because the kids were making fun of me. She took me in her arms and told me she loved me and everything would be okay. The next day she came to my school and raised hell for the kids picking on me.

You ever have your mother call your principle a useless dickweed? I have, not a lot of fun.

All Alice was doing was hugging me to make me feel better, but the hug made old human memories I was trying so hard to forget resurfaced with a vengeance. For the first time since I became a vampire…I missed my mother.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When Jake came back with Bella and Nessie he knew something was wrong. It wasn’t just the tension in the air; it was the smell of Sam and his two bitches that let him know something was up.

When he was told what Sam was planning he immediately took off to La Push. I meanwhile was feeling anti-social and was in my room sulking at how unfair life is. When I got a surprise visit.

“Hello Jack,” Nessie said.

I grunted in greeting.

“I don’t blame you, you know,” she said.

“For what?” I asked.

“For the thing going on with the Quileute’s,” she said.

“I don’t feel guilty, why should I?” I lied.

“You are a horrible liar,” she said.

“Leave the mind reading to your dad!” I snapped.

She walked up to me and placed her hand on mine. Her body temperature wasn’t as high as the werewolves but it was higher then a humans. I thought she was going to use her power on me but she just gave me some comfort.

“I just want you to know I am not mad at you.”

“Thanks,” I muttered.

She left me alone and I continued to sulk. Hoping to god they didn’t banish Nessie from La Push.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well the good news is Nessie was not banished from La Push. The rest of us are not allowed there ever. Even in times of emergency we are not allowed there. No big deal. La push is just a beach, some trees and an ass load of cliffs anyway.

The Alaskan vampires are coming; they really want to meet me, good for them. Eleazar is giddy he will be able to study a vampire with the power to heal .If he thinks I will be his guinea pig he has another thing coming.

I haven’t used my power to heal since I healed the bird. Hard to heal the others what with diamond hard skin and super healing anyways.

They are still looking for me in Oregon. It is becoming a full blown man hunt. Turns out I made CNN. They showed a picture of me, told everyone where I was last seen, said I got into a fight with my mom. They even showed my mom tearfully begging everyone to help find me. I quickly turned the T.V. off after that.

On the plus side I have sworn so much I have exhausted all my money. This was good because I used all the money in the jar to buy Jacob and his pack pizza. You should have seen the looks on their faces when they saw the towering pizza boxes. Quil and Embry actually broke into tears at the sight.

So for the next hour I sat with the wolves and watched as they ate. I actually tried some pizza and immediately ran to the bathroom to retch it up. I heard the bastards laughing while I was in the bathroom coughing the pizza up.

I tried not to breathe as I hung out with the wolves. Emmett plugged in rock band and we all played the game. Jasper watched me with his usual stern look, but every so often I would glance at him from the corner of my eye and I would swear I could see him smiling.

Soon all the Cullens came in and we rocked out, everyone took turns singing and doing the drums or guitar. Alice was an amazing singer, voice like an angel. Edward wasn’t too good at the guitar. I joked we could make a piano version for him and he glared at me.

When the pizzas were gone and the wolves had left Jasper clapped me on the shoulder and gave me a smile. I felt something I had not felt in a long time. Satisfaction. It had been so long since I did something and had fun doing it.

Maybe being nice wasn’t such a bad thing after all….nahhhh.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jasper P.O.V

“So who the hell is Peter and Charlotte?” Jack asked….again.

I sighed. “Peter and Charlotte are old friends of mine.”

“And they eat humans?” he asked.

“Yes.”

“Pricks.”

“Jack,” I warned.

“Well having had experienced the wrong end of a vampires tooth I think I can judge,” he said.

“Judge others least ye be judged.” I said.

“May he who has not sinned cast the first stone, I haven’t drunk human blood, I got the moral high ground,” he said. “When are you going to tell me about your past? I tried to get the others to fess up and they were all like ‘Ask Jasper, it’s his story to tell.’

“You should ask me,” I said.

“I have and you get all nervous and change the subject.”

“I don’t get nervous,” I said rolling my eyes. Actually I was nervous. I had yet to tell him about my history with Maria. He knew I had been a human eater, he knew I was from the south. “I was turned by a red neck vampire!” he had said. But he didn’t know I spent years turning people into monsters and killing them when they were no longer useful.

Jack was emotionally fragile and had a strong black and white view of the world. If I told him my bloody history it might set us back a few steps.

“Yes you do, I’m twelve not two.” he said.

Alice had a vision of Peter and Charlotte coming to visit us. So we were all getting ready. She had let me know this visit was more then just a house call. I tried to get her to tell me more but she refused saying I would know soon. “Peter and Charlotte were my family for many years. They are very peaceful.”

“Peaceful! They drink human blood! How the hell is that peaceful!”

“They don’t get into fights; they avoid fighting like a plague. All they do is drink human blood then mind their own business. You have to give them credit for that.” I said.

“Humph.” was all he said.

Me, Alice and Jack waited outside to greet my old friends. Jack was annoyed he had to dress nice. He wasn’t used to our fine way of life and hated having to dress in expensive cloths. He preferred to wear a shirt and a pair of shorts. That’s it. He stuck out like a sore thumb compared to the rest of us in our designer clothes.

But I wanted him to make a good expression and knowing it would be ruined as soon as he opened his mouth I could at least make sure he was presentable. A man should always look his best when guests arrive.

I wanted to tweak his emotions. All I was getting from his was the usual frustration, anger, irritation and grumpiness only in large doses. But he hated it when I tweaked his emotions with out his permission so I withheld myself.

Peter and Charlotte came into view. They stopped when they saw us. Smiling at me and Alice, looking at Jack with caution and curiosity. Jack tensed. He was still a newborn and had strong vampire emotions. He had gotten used to the rest of us but Peter and Charlotte were two new vampires. His instincts would keep him on high alert around them.

“Alice! Jasper!” Peter said. “Of course you knew we were coming.”

“Who is this?” Charlotte asked.

“This is Jack, he is our newest member. He’s mine,” I said patting him on the shoulder.

“By mine do you mean-” Peter began to ask.

“He bit me and turned me? Yeah?” Jack said.

You didn’t have to be an empath to sense the hostility coming off Jack. Part of it was his instincts part was his view on them because of their eating habits.

“A little young isn’t he Jasper?” Peter asked.

“I’m twelve, that’s not terribly young.” Jack said annoyed.

Peter and Charlotte looked shocked. “It’s a long story, come we’ll explain everything,” Alice said.

Jack went inside right away, not bothering to stick around. I let him go but made a note to remind him to be respectful later. We exchanged hugs with them.

“A little moody,” Peter said.

“He is young and lost a lot,” I said.

“You have to tell me what happened.”

“Oh I will.” I said.

We went inside and they greeted the others. They marveled at how much Nessie had grown and talked with the others about what had happened since the last time they had been here. Jack was upstairs sulking so I let him be.

I told them what happened. That night in Oregon, Jacks first day as a vampire, his tense week with us, the incident with the wolves, Jack’s healing power, how we lied to the wolves, everything. They were amazed by his power, thought it was very ironic.

Esme and Alice took Charlotte outside to see the new garden. Peter took me upstairs to Carlisle’s study talk. I remembered what Alice said about this being more then a social call.

“I have to say Jasper you have changed, in the olden days you would have killed the boy to keep it a secret,” Peter said.

“The thought had crossed my mind,” I said “But I knew if I really wanted to change I had to stop thinking like a cold killer. I admit I was…regretting my decision at first but now I am happy I didn’t.”

“You seem to have your hands full, I admit the thought of you taking on a father role for this boy seems highly entertaining though.” he smiled.

“Training a vampire is easy, raising one is a lot harder.” I said.

“Which brings me to my next point,” he said his face becoming more serious. “I have heard some…rumors from down south.”

“What kind of rumors?” I asked.

“Charlotte and I visit the south every so often. I have some…contacts down there who let me know what the political situation is like. On our last visit we learned there may be another war starting soon.”

I froze. I sensed the seriousness and truth for him. Peter never left the south. He never went anywhere near Maria’s territory but he like to visit New Mexico, Texas, Louisiana. There had been a balance in the south for many years. Maria had claimed a lot of territory but I know there were other vampires with decent lands.

“What did you hear?” I asked.

“Well this is only rumor, but one of Marias neighbors was murdered. A new coven came in and took his land. It started some fighting, the others thought they could wipe out the new comers and take more land for themselves but the new coven has proven to be quiet formidable. There have been some nasty fights; it hasn’t begun to affect the humans…yet. Rumor also has it Maria fearing the order of things beginning to crumble has begun to recruit humans and bolster her army as protection.”

“Has she faced any challenges?” I asked.

“A few, but she wiped out all competition. So far she has maintained her territory. I fear it wont be long before it escalates and the Volturi are called in to once again handle the situation. But I figured I should warn you of the situation.”

“I no longer have anything to do with Maria, no concern of mine.” I said.

“You know Maria, if she gets desperate enough she will seek you out for help,” he said.

“Maria does not know where I am, and after the last time she visited I gave her a hint not to visit anytime soon,” I said.

“When has Maria taken a hint? You were her golden boy Jasper, her right hand man. If she feels her territory is threatened she will come to you for help.” Peter said.

He was right. When she came to visit us years back she was persistent in trying to persuade me to return with her.

“Why live like this Jasper? Why deny who and what you are?” she asked.

There was no way I could explain it to her, at least not in a way she would understand. After she caused us some grief (Killing some humans in a very obtuse way) I told her not to visit for a long time. The incident forced us to move sooner then we would have liked.

There was no way Maria knew where we were now. I hadn’t seen or heard from her since the incident. If she did come looking for me Alice would know and I would make sure to avoid her. I have a family now, I will not allow her near Jack, especially not now.

“Thank you for the warning Peter, I really appreciate it.” I said.

“No problem,” he smiled. “I know you are trying to…change your life and I don’t want you to have any problems with your past coming back to haunt you, although if you keep drinking children’s blood that might be a bit counter productive.”

“That was an accident,” I said.

“I hope you can handle the boy, he seems wild, even for a vampire.”

“He is young, it is harder on the younger ones,” I said. “Still I have hope for him, he has been making small steps.”

“Doesn’t seem to keen on me and Charlotte.”

“I apologize for that, he is not fond of those of our kind who drink human blood.”

“So he is a healer you say? Odd power for a vampire.”

“We called Eleazar down to see what the extent of his power is... It could help him stay in touch with his humanity.” I said.

He laughed. “Even humans have a hard time staying in touch with their humanity. But I wish you the best of luck training the boy.”

“Thanks something tells me I will need all the luck in the world.”
