Prologue
I hate the idea of leaving, I left my beta to handle things on the reservation, things have been quiet lately and I had no choice but to go, I hate leaving my number one to handle things not that he isn't capable he is but every since I signed the treaty with the vegetarians I've been leery of letting the tribe out of my site.
I still wasn't sure it was a good idea allowing those bloodsuckers to live so close to the reservation or even the town as far as that goes, but what's done is done and it's my responsibility to make sure they keep the law of the treaty.
My name is Ephraim Daniel Black, I am chief of the Quileute tribe, I'm also Alpha to a small group of shape-shifter, there is only four of us, but we are capable of defending our tribe,I had a vision, they don't come often, but when they do come, I know I have to listen, and this is one of those times.
The vision called to me to go deep into the forest, to leave my tribe, my people and my imprint. I will know where to go. I've given orders to my Beta, I don't know how long I'll be gone but I'll keep in contact with him, and I was off.
I have been traveling for days, I know I am deep in the forest of Canada and when I came to the clearing that I recognized from my vision I stopped and set up camp.
I have been here for three days and still no sign of the Spirit Guide, I sat in front of the fire. I had my eyes closed and was deep in a trance. I knew I had to be patient; the Spirit Guide never does anything in a hurry.
He wants me to cleanse my soul from the humdrum of the natural world, to in gulf myself into the spirit world, to clear my mind, he wants me to be one with nature, to only have pure thoughts, it will take time with all the worries of the tribe bouncing around in my mind, it is difficult to stop thinking of all the problems on the I closed my eyes, and took a few deep breathes, and before long I was at peace with only the sounds of the forest echoing in my head, the clean air was tantalizing my senses, I felt calm and at ease, I was connected with the spirit world, I opened my eyes to see a russet Wolf standing in front of me across from the fire.
I bowed my head in honor of the Great Spirit.
"Welcome Taha Aki, how can I be of service to you old Great one?
"The Wolf stood tall and amenable, you could see the pride he took in his statues and the love he has for his people, he held his head high and meaningfully, he towered over me, even in wolf form, he was a giant above all. You could see the powerfulness of this wolf and his greatness shines through all else, once a man and wolf a leader now in spirit he still leads with honor.
I keep my eyes and head lowered out of respect and waited for him to speak.
"Ephraim…you have been a great leader of our tribe as well as Alpha, I have much to tell you, some will be unbelievable to you, but you must take heed in what I say," he began.
"Of course your greatness, I am at your service," I told him.
"Then listen well and follow what I say, with no questions asked," he told me.
"Yes, your greatness," I told him keeping my head bowed and eyes down.
"Everything I tell you this day you will not understand, but you must follow what I say," he said.I didn't understand, but I knew that I must follow his orders, he was the Great Taha Aki and only he knew how things would turn out, and I trusted what he said, it wasn't up to me to second guess his orders, until what he said next.
"You must send your imprint away," he said. I jerked my head up to look into his eyes, which is not ever done, to look into the Great Spirit's eyes was disrespectful, but I didn't care right now. What did he mean send her away? I was pissed, I can't do that and he knows that I can't, why would he say such a thing? The imprinting process is final, she is my soul mate, my reason for living, and she is ever breathe that I take.
Maybe he is testing me, I wonder if he is saying this to see if I will do what he says, so I will summit to his order and I lowered my head once again.
"Yes great one," I said, waiting for him to tell me if it was a test or not.
"The bond with your mate will be broken and another will take her place," he continued. My heart began to beat faster, he meant it he would have me send my imprint away, this is unheard of, it's never happened before even he himself couldn't break from his imprint and took many wives as a result.
"Your greatness, this is unheard of, it is impossible to break the bond of an imprint, I will not live without her, you yourself no this is impossible great one," I told him with a weak voice.
"You doubt the word of Taha Aki? He bellowed.
"No! Your greatness, I just fear for my imprint, I wish her no harm, I fear for only her," I begged.
"Ephraim… I know you don't understand, but this is necessary, your imprint is barren, due to an injury she sustained as a child, there will be no pain to her, the bond will be severed. You are the Chief of the tribe; you must father a son to take your place one day. The woman I send to you has much importance to the future. Her name is Isabella Jane Swan, her husband was killed in an accident leaving her alone and pregnant with a daughter, you will grow to love this child and raise her as your own, their powers are great," he continued.
"Powers?" I asked," is she a witch oh great one?"
"No my son, she is not a witch, she's a seer, she sees the future and she sees what is coming, what the future holds and this frightens her, she has told no one of this vision out of fear, you must help her see that these things are a gift and make it know to her that her power will be handed down to her daughter and will be needed for the future. She will be the ancestor to a great power known as an Ancient "he said.
"I am sorry great one, I do not understand, I mean I understand for me to help her but not about the future thing," I told him.
"It is not for you to understand, you must make her understand that she must protect the powers so she can hand them down to her daughter, and her daughters, daughters daughter, so they will know what is to be done in the future she must also keep a journal telling of her powers and in doing so telling her future children that something is about to happen, so they will be ready to handle the catastrophe that is to come.I was sent here by another, one that is greater than I, she will be her Spirit Guide when it is time," he said. I shook my head.
"There will be a catastrophe in the future that only her… what… great granddaughter will only be able to fix?" I asked.
"Yes my son, but it doesn't stop there, your great grandson will imprint on her, and there will be great confusion with the imprint and much pain, you too must keep a journal as well to help with this problem, your great grandson will do as you have, imprinting on the wrong woman, which will cause great pain to the Swan woman, and to your great grandson. He as well has his father your grandson will not see what is true and hold firm to their beliefs, although he sees the Swan woman and feels the pull, he will stand strong with his imprint, the Swan woman will know this and her heart will break and stand alone, she will work close with him for he is Chief of the tribe, which will cause more pain to her, but she will stand strong to help her tribe," he said.
"Her tribe?" I asked more confused than ever.
"Sleep now my son, take what I have told you so far and put it in order, I will return to you in the morning and tell you more," he said, then disappeared into the forest.
I sat there in front of the fire trying to contemplate what was told to me. He said I wouldn't understand, but I am to act on what he told me, how am I to act on something I don't' understand? I am to give up my imprint, which is unheard of…and take another into my bed.
I know enough about the Great Spirit to know that anything is possible, that they can do anything to set the world right again. I also wonder why the powers that be had me imprint on a woman who was barren to start with, I knew I would have to father a son to take my place as chief one day or even be Alpha of the pack, but the pull of Myra was too strong to resist, I was the only son how was this so.
So there will be another, I will have to take what Taha Aki says to heart and pray that Myra will not be totally shattered at this news.
The rest of this is that the Swan woman has powers, it's a lot to swallow, an Ancient? I know nothing of such things, I would be conceded to believe we are the only supernatural creatures on this earth , of course there are other out there, some good and some evil, and it is evident that these Ancients are good, and her great granddaughter was destined to be one, which brought me back to the catastrophe the future holds, which brings to mind, elements, earthly bound as in earthquake or floods, ect.
How can an Ancient stop this type of thing? Unless it was caused by someone or something, how can someone cause a catastrophe?I don't know my head was spinning, I know nothing about such things, and maybe that's what Taha Aki meant by saying I wouldn't understand, it was up to me to act on his words and not to understand. I will take it one day at a time and let whatever was natural take its place and just go with the flow of things. I finally let sleep over take me.
And when morning came so did Taha Aki.I bowed to him once again and took a seat in front of the fire as before. As he continued.
"You have separated yourself with the unknown and what is expected of you, this is good my son," he said.
"Yes, your greatness, I know not of the things you have told me but resigned myself to only except the things I cannot change, it is for the future to take care of, I will do what is expected of me here and now to get the word to my children," I told him.
This is good, now I will continue. I will start by telling you that you will be the last pack to evolve for two generations," he began. Which I took as a good thing, if there will be no more wolves transforming then that means the vampires are gone at least around here. I thought to myself.
"The Cullens will leave very soon, you as well as your brothers will stop phasing and grow old with your mates," he said.
"That is great news your greatness," I told him with a grin on my face.
"Yes my son, but always keep in mind that they are still out there," he said and I shook my head in agreement.
"The Cullens will return in seventy years, which will cause the wolf gene to start again. Your great grandson, Jacob Ephraim Black," at the mention of his name gave me great pride. "Yes, my son he is named after you, and he will be known as the greatest Chief and Alpha, besides yourself, to ever lead this tribe," he said, as I smiled at his words.
"Thank you, your greatness," I told him.
"I speak only the truth my son, He as well as his true imprint will be able to communicate through their minds, mostly through her powers. He and his first imprint will find this strange as his father will find it strange, his father will study this as he will always studied our history, your grandson will be an historian the keeper of the words, he will know all our history and understand them, but the history of you and Isabella will be lost for a short time, but William, your grandson will dig until he finds the journals from you and your mate. Your grandson will also know of the herb," he said.
"The herb, your greatness?" I asked confused once again.
"He will be an herbalist, he will know all the herbs and know there uses. Some herbs can be dangerous if used in the wrong way, you must write this in your journal, but only mention it, nothing more, this will spark William's interest and will help him in solving one of the future problems, when you get back to your tribe go to the herbalist have him write his own journal and name all the herbs and there uses, then have him file it in the great hall of our history," he told me.
"Yes, your greatness," I said, I knew he had a reason for all of this and it wasn't for me to understand, but it was left up to me to start the ball rolling and without me starting this everything will fall apart. So I knew my importance in all of this, if I didn't do what was asked of me then the future would fall.
"My son, we live in a world of magic of supernatural creatures, most of the world knows nothing of such things and calls them myths, we live in one world, but don't think that it is the only one, there are parallel worlds that run side by side, where one person lives so does another, as good is to evil so is these worlds, pull the tether just a little and it will be out of place, it will cause a paradox, both worlds if not more will cease to exist, they will crumble and all will die," he told me.I looked at him confused more than ever. I know once again it wasn't my place to understand, but this was detrimental to the chaos that was to come.
"One mere human will cause this destruction without even realizing he is doing so. His jealousy for one woman will cause the deaths of all," he told me.
I sighed at the thought of the whole world being destroyed at one human's jealousy, and I took it as a domino effect, something else must have to happen before this human can even cause such a catastrophe and I had a feeling it had to do with the tribe, it would filter its way through time and space and land in this human's hands for him to cause this without him realizing what he was doing.
"Remember Ephraim Daniel Black, do as I ask, keep the journal, persuade Isabella to do the same, appoint someone to file these journal's in the great hall of our history upon your deaths, speak to the herbalist follow through to make sure his journal is filed away, do as I say so the future can be saved," he told me finally.
"Yes, great one, I will make it so," I told him. Then he was gone.
