Dark…was death always so comfortingly dark? Better then the bitter abyss of water, pure rapture of warmth engulfing, intertwining, loving, beautiful. Never had a moment of uncertainty about the future been so very captivating in it's' embrace. A steady sound of a heart beat. Thump, Thump, Thumping rapidly in the warmth, the smell of forest, of rain, of…him? Mismatched eyes gradually slide open, silver everywhere, fur, so soft, engulfing. A whine, soft and pleading, it is comforting and beautiful.

"Release her this instant, YOU MANGY FILTH!" Now she knew death had once more passed her over, that voice was unmistakable.

"Borthier! Calm yourself, if you anger it, it could hurt Kree." She struggled now, against the beautiful warmth, against the soft pelt of fur, pushing, shoving, until her head finally emerged from the prone figure.

"Mommy?" She lay her head atop the soft fur, her eyes locking with the unmistakable face of her mother, but her eyes were all wrong, her mothers eyes where an ever changing green, like a forest of spring, not red, not like blood.

"Yes…Baby are you ok?" It was her voice, her soothing soft loving voice, but the skin, that was not her mothers, her mother had a beautiful caramel complexion, not pale, not white. Her mother took a step forward but the ball of pelted silver fur rumbled angrily.

"Give me back my baby." Her mother hissed, her mother never hissed before, never had she made such a sound…she sounded like…like grandpa.

*Flashback*

Something was wrong, very wrong. He could feel it like a heavy weight in the air, every breath he took curled in anxious and nervous energy, butterflies ran rampant in his chest thrumming against his rib cage, sickening, desperate.

'Sky.' Beautiful mismatched eyes flashed through his head. He had branded them into his retinas the moment they had opened and locked with his.

'Something is wrong.' Leah whined, her speed increasing even more so now. Tthe Cullen house was in view. His feet dug into the ground and snow, throwing up tuffs of it into the air, He sniffed the air quickly, searching, praying, hoping, for her scent.

'She's gone.' Leah growled, her body twitching as she trotted forward, a snarl on her lips. The big vampire, Emmett, was outside within moments, his eyes worried and shift, as if searching, until they landed on them.

" Just perfect." He grumbled lowly.

"You guys couldn't have showed up ten minutes ago? How perfect, was no one watching her?" He was stressed, even without his body giving off a scent beyond the bleach sweetness, it still fidgeted, he still searched frantically. Paul growled lowly, he wanted answers, where was his imprint? Emmett snapped his head in the silver wolfs direction.

"Don't even try that with me you ASS!" Anger replaced worry.

"You have no right to even come near her with your petty, I Don't wanna LEECH as an imprint ASS! This is your fault! You mangy stupid…." He sunk down, his angry replaced with worry again.

"She can't die, Alice can be wrong right? She is just a kid…I still have to show her how to wrestle a bear, I promised, I told her…I promised…where is she? Alice could be wrong right?" Paul zoned out his rumblings and sniffed the air again, searching for her scent until he caught wind of it in the harsh cold. Without a word to Leah he darted off in it's direction… Alice said he was the catalyst right? He couldn't be to late…could he? He shook the thought away quickly. No, he was not late, and he would find Sky, and spend every moment of his life making sure to make up for not being by her side when she needed him, showing her he loved her with everything he was, he loved her.

Her scent carried through the trees, brushing up against trees and bushes, clear signs of travel to his wolfs eyes. His pace increased, the sound of his claws hitting snow echoed by Leah's. They did not speak, both heads where to filled with following the scent, to being there before anything happened.

"Alice!"

'Sky!' He answered, his pace increasing even further. A log cabin came into view, and a tall fair haired man was holding Sky by the arm, her body limp in his hand, a pistol in the other. Paul didn't even think, didn't process right and wrong in his mind, all he could see, all he could think, was Sky. The man turned in time to see him, his eyes widened before he raised his pistol and fired, he missed. The man's head was off his shoulders before Paul even reached them. The scent of bleach suddenly coated the clearing.

They had followed Leah and his scent mixed with Sky's, they had assumed that he was hunting his imprint, which was entirely true, but entirely not at the same time. The red eyed one pleaded with him, striking out, and then pleading again, she wanted Sky. She called her Kree though, her baby. He could not trust those deadly red eyes, filled with the thirst of the leech, the hunger, the temptation. She was a new born, everything about her screamed it, making his fur rise, his nose twitch. He growled louder every time she approached, Sky was curled up in his fur, snuggled in tight and safe. Her head was peaked up above the mass of silver, her bright eyes questioning as she gazed upon her newly turned mother, as if trying to process the change in her.

"Mommy?" She called softly, her small head burrowing further into his fur as she did, a slight hint of uncertain fear spiked in his nose and he whined. How could he have left her? His poor innocent Sky? She was no monster, she was just as Alice had screamed at them. She was just a little girl, a scared one at the moment, and she was taking comfort in him, ignoring the fact that he was a giant wolf, that he was a beast that could tear her limb from limb. She did not judge him as he had so callously done her, instead she gave him her trust to keep her safe. Guilt washed over him in cascading waves.

The red eyed one approached again, cooing to her. He growled again, louder, more viciously. Sky wanted him to protect her, she trusted him too, and he was not going to let her down, he would do just as his heart told him.

"Kree, It's mommy, I'm here baby, I'm sorry I was gone so long honey, but we're back, we're here for you honey." She crouched lower trying to peer around Paul's ruffled fur.

"Your daddy is here baby, he has missed you." Paul felt the girl stiffen behind him before she rose unsteadily.

"Daddy?" She cooed, her small hands gripped in fur. Just then a tall man approached, his eyes were mismatched just as hers were. They met with his own gaze, the man nodded softly to him before taking hold of the shoulders of the red eyed leech.

"He will not allow you near, you must calm yourself, I will speak with him." He whispered soothingly to her, her eyes only narrowed in rage.

"She is my daughter! And I will approach her as I damn well please!" She hissed and went for Paul again, but the man puller her back and gripped her tightly.

"You are uncontrollable, and have not found even ground in your strength my love, you could very well harm her."

"Then let me pry the beast claws from my intended." The vampire whose name he discovered was Borthier spoke as he stepped forward, his golden eyes slightly darker then the rest. Paul growled lowly at him.

'As if that leech has a chance.' Leah's voice suddenly popped in. Paul turned his head to find not only Leah and her half cocked wolf grin, but most of the pack behind her. Leah gave him a wide smile.

'we have come for our pack…and her mangy dog.' The others chuckled at her remark, but Paul was to tense with the newborn vampire that was Sky's mother trying to claim her, and the leech that insisted she was his intended, he would have to pry Sky from his cold dead paws before he let him have her.

"I am Liandro Alchemen Sheer Shelfton…and I am her father, this is Lilith, her mother, We have only come for our child, she is our coven, and is my daughter. I have made a grave error in leaving them, and have come to correct my wrong doings. I implore you to allow me access to my child. She is a quarter vampire, and her place is with her family and coven. I shall allow no harm to befall her." Paul growled and a deep bark echoed through the clear in as the massive form of Sam's Black furred body stepped forward.

'you are no father, you are a coward and a hypocrite, and you shall come no where near my pack.' Paul knew the half breed could not hear Sam, but the deep low growl that followed as Sam lowered his head an glared, was a fairly evident answer. Liandro's eyes sharpened.

"I am being generous in my asking for my own flesh and blood. I have shown no aggression and have all right to her. I will only extend my generosity so far, relinquish her, or you will incur war from the Shelfton clan and it's allies shape shifters."

"Give me back my little girl!" Lilith cried out as she attempted to struggle further and harder in her lovers grip. Liandro struggled to maintain her, and soon his grip was joined by Borthiers.

"I suggest you release our daughter soon, you should well know that we cannot hold a new born for long, and she may hurt Kree in her rage." He warned. Paul whined softly to Sam, his eyes pleading. He knew that if a fight broke out, with all of their large bodies clamoring around, one might hurt Kree, of her newborn mother may harm her in her apprehension. Lilith struggled again, breaking free for a moment before being apprehended by her lover again.

"I implore you to hurry in you decision, I do not wish to see my daughter come to harm."

"I am not going to hurt my baby! Now get that freak off her!" Leah scoffed at the insult part.

'Theres the pot calling the kettle black.' She mumbled before joining Paul on his other side.

'Leah…' Sam attempted to warn her, unsure of her intent.

'Blow me papa wolf, decision is made and we know it, she stays here, I'll brace over her, you shred the leeches.'

'We can't do that Leah…' Paul cut in, his head hanging low in defeat.

'and why the hell now?' Leah turned on him, her voice hitting a lower angrier tone.

'She will hate us...' Leah stopped mid growl, her ears perking up at this statement.

'Hate us?' Leah turned her head to where Sky sat still peeking her head over Paul's massive body as he lay down in a half crouch with her.

'Paul is right Leah, we cannot kill her family, she will never forgive us. We cannot fight with them, because we may harm her, and we cannot let her go, because she is out pack, our child, Pauls imprint, and our little Sky.' Sam whined, their fearless leader was in between a rock and a hard place. How were they supposed to go about the situation? His eyes turned to Sky who still looked adorably, clueless, and slightly scared as she peered back at him. His gaze landed on Paul next, his pack brothers head was full of desperate plans, some ludicrous, some making no sense, and some involved leaving the pack. None could he allow to happen. Leah sat growling in random intervals, her thoughts blocked by her dissention from his pack, but he knew Leah well enough to know how her thought process went. The rest of the pack shifted in uncertainty behind them, their myriad of colors dotting the forest line, each one ready fro whatever decision, but each unwilling to relinquish the rights to Sky.

'Sam…' His thoughts were broken by Leahs defeated whimper.

'What do we do then?' Sam turned to Paul, and gave him an apologetic look.

'Hand her over Paul, when she is an adult, she will come for us.'

'No!' A chorus of voices slammed into his mind at one, his own thoughts mirrored theirs, but he was at a loss for a better idea, what else was he to do?

"Allow me too assist in that." That voice was familiar. His head snapped behind them to find Edward headed by the rest of the Cullen clan standing in the ranks of the wolves as if they were pack, each looking more fierce then the other.

"Paul, let me have Sky." Rosalie cooed. Paul nuzzled the small form of his imprint softly in the direction of Rosalie, he knew the vampire wanted her far from the escalation situation. Sky glance at her father one more time before running to Rosalies arms. The blond vampire swept her up in a tight embrace, comforting whispers falling from her lips as she soothed the girl. Alice was beside them in an instant, her golden eyes traveling up and down the length of the girl, insuring no harm had come to her. Her eyes darken slightly when she saw the hand printed bruise blossoming on her upper arm, but other then this, no other harm seemed to have come to her other then a knot on the back of the head .

"Who are you?" Liandro cut in as the rest of the Cullens continued their approach.

"We are the Cullen clan, we are the ones who assisted in saving your daughter from certain death when you decided to leave her helpless with a monster of a man." Alice stepped forward, her tiny body tense as her eyes bore holes into Liandro's.

"It was unfortunate what happened, but I did what I thought would be best for Sky…Kree, to give her a normal life." Paul growled lowly in his throat. Normal? She was a quarter vampire! How would she ever have a normal life? How was she supposed to fit in with humans? Did he hope to just dump her like trash until she was an adult and easier to deal with?

"And now you think it best to retrieve her when you have an uncontrollable newborn within your coven?"

"She is my daughter, and I will have her!" Lilith continued in her tirade.

"You know as well as I that a new born is unpredictable and volatile, and allowing Sky to go with you while she is so fragile would be a grave mistake on your part. We will not stand idle in your naivety and allow this to happen when we all know the outcome would be catastrophic at best, you will release Kree to the Cullens, until you either pawn off the newborn, which I doubt you would be so willing to relinquish your mate, or until she has control of herself." Alice finished with a sickeningly sweet smile, her eyes daring them to disagree with her logic. Paul knew she could not see the outcome of the conversation because of the pack, and was just blowing hot air, but he knew for certain that the pixie vampire would be the first to take up arms to insure that Sky remained with them where she was safe.

"Nonsense, if Lilith and Liandro cannot watch over her for now, then I will, she is my intended." Borthier cut in, Paul wanted nothing more then to rip him to shreds in that instant.

"She is your singer, I already know of you, and I will not release her to you either. She will remain with us, unless you wish strike with the Quileute pack." She motioned to the wolves baring their teeth and snarling all around her.

"And the Cullen clan." The Cullens, excluding Rosalie who still held Sky far away from the conflict, stepped forward, solidifying their presence.

"I implore you to listen to reason, we are all well over a decade, excluding our dear Bella whom is only 15 years into her new life, but is far more in control of herself then your mate. We are a suitable and well situated home, Kree will be well protected by not only us, but by the Quileute pack as well. You of course, will be allowed to visit any time you would like, as well as your mate and Borthier, and her grandparents." Carsile smiled, even as Paul growled once more at the thought of Borthier being anywhere near Sky.

"Your word, she will be safe?" Carlsile nodded.

"If harm befalls her, it will be your head I come for." Liandro hissed.

"No! give me my baby now!" Lilith screamed once more, she was becoming more and more irrational.

"You are a fool to bring a newborn with you." Rosalie hissed as she watched the struggle to withhold Lilith intensify.

"I did not come with her, I followed her." Rosalie gave him a questioning look. Leah let loose a loud howl before shifting into her human form, walking straight forward with steady strides and striking Liandro right across the face.

"You Bastard! You never intended to come for her did you! As long as you had your mate you were willing to sacrifice your child!" She struck again, and again. The vampire had his hands to full to guard himself.

"You do not understand shifter, the circumstances were dire, it could not be helped."

"Couldn't be helped! You could have waited to change her mother you asshole! You could have come for her as soon as you heard the story! You could have not been such a prick and coward and abandoned them in the first place!"

"She was dying anyway!" Everyone halted their movements. Even the wolves heads went silent.

"What do you mean? How? " Liandro pushed Lilith behind him, the newborn had lost most of her struggle at his words.

"Her body won't survive the change, she is to human, she was never meant to be."

"Liandro?" Lilith whimpered from behind him. He turned to her, his shoulders slumped.

"My Lilith was dying of cancer, she would not last much longer, and I could not loose them both." He turned back to Lilith.

"I am sorry my love, but I could not loose you, my heart would not survive it." A slap echoed across the clearing as cold marble met his cheek.

"My daughter is not going to die." She hissed lowly.

"She's right, You were just to negative and stuck in your ideas that she would not survive to wait to see if she actually would. You left her with a drunk of a man who you knew would kill her some day, you left her to her fate like she meant nothing, and you were wrong, I have seen her, grown and strong, you were just to blind to see the strength we can see." Alice stepped forward, her voice was soft and level, yet her eyes burned.

"Is this true Liandro?" Borthier turned to the half breed now.

"Yes, I intended to leave her to this fate, what would you have me do? Slowly watch my daughter die? I had assumed that she was killed the moment Lilith showed up at our doorstep and told me the story. Kree was left alone with the man, in her changing condition, I knew she was weak, too weak to survive the change, to weak to survive the man, I assumed her dead, but Lilith…she escaped, she came for her, I didn't know she would survive, I didn't know she would…I saw her fading, that's why I left, I couldn't stand.."

"I thought you left because you feared Borthier would harm her?" Leah cut in, her eyes boring holds into his. He shook his head in the negative.

"Borthier could harm her yes, but he was only a part of the reason."

"So you…you left our daughter to her fate?" Liliths voice cracked, and if she could cry, Paul was certain she would be crying a river.

"Well since you were so quick to abandon her, then you should have no problem handing her over to us. Her mother may come when she is ready, and can control herself, but I doubt Sky will want you around." Rosalie said with a triumphant smile. She may have to share Sky at some point with Lilith, but it would be joint custody no matter how they split the cake.

"Sky?" Borthier butted in.

"New home, new family, new intended, new name." Paul smiled broadly and silently thanked the Cullen for adding him into Sky's new life. 'Intended.' It had a nice ring to it.

"You will do well to watch yourself. Kree is mine, regardless of this slight altercation."

"No, Sky belongs to 'SKY' And she will do as she pleases, and if she chooses you, then so be it, but if she chooses Paul, who despite his wet dog smell, I'm rooting for him, then good for her, but SKY will do as she pleases." Alice cut in, her glare sent to both Rosalie and Borthier.

"She prefers to be called Sky by the way, a nick name if you must." Alice winked at Borthier before turning to Lilith who was caught between sadness at what Liandro had done, and rage for the same reason.

"Kree is your daughter, you came for her, although I don't think you should have left her, I understand that you had too for the sake of Sercain, I am sure she will want to see you and her little sister soon, so conquer your blood lust quickly, and come see her soon, but I implore you, for her safety, please wait until you have conquered it before you come." Alice pleaded. Lilith nodded sadly, some rationality returning.

"I want to speak with her, please?" Alice smiled brightly and nodded to Rosalie to bring her up. Rosalie cast an indigent look for a moment before conceding and approaching. Lilith looked to Rosalie and Rosalie to her, each had a measured caution around the other.

"I am Rosalie, I have been…her step in mother I suppose." Rosalie finally broke the silence as she put Sky down to stand between them.

"Thank you Rosalie, I'm Lilith, her mother, and I will be relieved to know that you will take my place and watch over her until I can return." Rosalies cool exterior broke once she heard those words. Lilith was granting her rights to Sky and that was all she needed to hear to like the other vampire.

"Kree…look at me sweety." Mismatched eyes gazed upward, her bottom lips caught between her teeth.

"Mommy loves you very much, and I always will, but I have to go away for a little while ok? I will be back as soon as I can, I promise." Sky's eyes grew big as a few tears escaped, but she nodded anyway.

"I love you mommy." She sniffed.

"I love you too baby."

"Can Sercain come over and stay with Sky?" Lilith hesitated.

"Honey I don't think the Cullens can take on two children at once, Sercain will stay with grandma and grandpa for a little while and…"

"Nonesense, we can more then handle another little one, don't split the two dears up, this transition is hard enough." Esme finally found her voice to speak up as she approached, a motherly smile on her face.

"Sercain is more then welcome to join the Cullen ranks as well, and you are more then welcome to visit whenever you like when you have had time to adjust."

"What gives you right to take children that are not yours like you own them and then tell their mother when she can and cannot see them?" Borthier butted in, his eyes on fire as he realized that Sky truly was not returning with them.

"The mother." Lilith answered.

"I cannot watch over them, not when I am like this."

"Then I will." He insisted.

"No, Borthier, you will not. Sky will grow up here, where no decision will be pressed on her, and both girls will be well guarded. Look around you Borthier, there is an army here for her, where do you think she will be safer?"

"You trust these mangy mutts?" Lilith nodded.

"Well I don't! She is MY intended regardless of what anyone thinks, and I will not have he taken from me!" He went to step forward but hesitated when the chorus of well over twenty wolves rose from around them.

"Watch your step." Alice smirked out, causing Leah to chuckle slightly at the sarcasm in the pixies voice.

"This isn't over." He hissed before disappearing from sight.

"Watch them for me Rosalie, be their mother until I can?" Rosalie nodded as Lilith began backing away. Liandro placed a hand on her shoulder that she quickly shook off, her eyes held a glare that said that there would be a very long, and possibly painful, discussion between the two of them later.

"I will have Orthien bring Sercian as soon as possible." She whispered before disappearing as well as Liandro.

"Well that was interesting." Leah smirked to Alice, still feeling a kindred sarcasm with the smaller woman.

"What was interesting?" Bella Asked as she finally emerged from the trees, a perplexed look on her face.

"Why did everyone ditch me?" She asked while looking around.

"And why is the pack here? What going on?"

Sky tugged on Rosalies hand, Causing her new mother to divert her attention from Bella.

"Is she ok…like in the head?" Sky poked at her head as she asked. Rosalie smiled lightly at her.

"Not a bit." She answered.
