A.N: I own nothing except for the extension of the Uley family, as far as Alexandra and her many brothers and sisters along with her step mom and real mom. I'm actually writing this story by myself. If it makes things either you can refer to me as D. so you know when I'm writing a story on my own. This takes place a few years after Breaking Dawn.

Jacobs POV.

It was half past nine, and yet I was still here sitting on the cliffs. In all honesty as much as I knew I had to get up and leave to start my patrolling, but I couldn't bring myself to leave. I was tired both physically and mentally. A few years back we rejoined both packs again. With me as Alpha of both packs, it's been tiring. Well it's not only the pack, but also my imprint, Neisse. She's 10 now although she does look like she's at least 14 or 15. Neisse's great, it's just that, I don't have any of those romantic feelings that all the other imprinted wolves have. I don't know it's all to confusing.

"Well look who it is, if it isn't my dear almighty alpha." I would know that voice anywhere.

"Well if it isn't my lovely, beta." I said while I turned to look at a smiling Leah. If there is one good thing that came from these past few years it would have to be the fact that no one has to deal with the bitchy Leah anymore. Well, she could still be a bitch, but only when she's really ticked off. Well she is still sarcastic, but she's a lot nicer, and friendlier. She actually forgave Sam and Emily.

"Look I know I'm late for pa-"

"Patrol? What are you talking about? Didn't you get my message?"

"Message? What message?"

Leah gave a huge exasperated sigh, then went and sat beside. I don't know how, but somehow Leah and I managed to become great friends. Sure we had our arguments every now and again, but hey, that's Leah and I for you.

"I don't get you. One moment you're complaining how we don't get to communicate much anymore. Then when I try to communicate with you ignore me. You know, that kind of hurts my feelings." She said with a pout.

"What feelings?"

Leah gave a huge gasp.

"Your dead."

This is something we were use to one moment we were having a serious conversation, and the next we find ourselves acting like little kids.

"Leah, Jacob!" Great, leave it to Sam to ruin all the fun.

…...

"Dad what's wrong?"

The whole pack was in my house along with all the imprints and their children. This couldn't be good. Even Charlie was there. I looked at my dad and saw Emily and Sue trying to calm him down. I went over to him, and sat next to him.

"Dad what's wrong?"

"Gabriel and his son Mark and their eldest daughter Maya were killed."

"Who?"

"Sam's older cousin Gabriel."

"I don't know who your talking about."

"Look, this is them." He said while he handed me an old family photo.

I scanned the photo to see if I recognized any of them. They all looked familiar but I couldn't… I just couldn't remember were I had seen them. Until I looked at this one girl she looked around the age of 7 or 8. Instantly I remembered her.

"Alex." I half whispered. "Her dad and…her-"

"Yeah" Leah said while she placed her hand on my shoulder.

"Jacob, I am so sorry." I looked up at her to see tears running down her face. Without thinking I pulled her to me.

As I held her close to me for both her comfort and mine, I felt her shaking and whimpering against my chest. I knew why she was crying. Hell, I was crying for the same reason. We both knew what it was like to loose a parent. We were knowing strangers to that kind of loss. I remember when I lost my mother it hurt like hell. I felt like I had lost everything. I felt so weak, like I had just lost a part of me. Like I was being destroyed.

When Leah and I were finally able to calm down, I looked over at my dad even though I didn't let go of Leah.

"What happened?"

"Vampires." At the name I herd myself growl.

"They found Mayas' dead body in their back yard. Gabriel and a few of his sons went to go track down the vampire…. But they were ambushed and killed. Victor, Peter, and Zack survived."

"Did they all turn?"

"The ones you know of yes. Were going to go to the funeral, which is in a two days."

"So soon?"

"Yeah, they believe it's for the best."

"How do you think there taking it?"

"The family is dealing. However, Alexandra isn't doing so good."

"I can just barely imagine how Alex is doing."

"She went missing for three, days after she found out. Apparently she just got back this morning."

"Well where's the funeral being held?"

"Florida."

A.N: This chapter might have started slow, but it will get better. Please review. I'm going to put pictures the major characters on my profile.
