Ch 1: Life Just Gets Better and Better
Takes place after BD
Jacob's POV
Seth, Leah, head back to La Push. I'm going to hang with Nessie at the Cullen's for a while
I thought as I changed directions-now running- keeping an even rhythm beneath my paws.
Yes, oh highest leader
Leah joked as she bolted back to La Push at full speed. Damn, she was getting faster. I let that slide; for now.
The sun started to peek over the eastern horizon. Nessie would be awake soon, so I pushed my paws even harder against the soft dirt in determination to get to my destination faster.
Renesmee was now my world, my gravitational pull, and, I'd imprinted on her. I also enjoyed my visits to the Cullen's house to see Bella, even though she wasn't her soft, warm self I was used to. Edward wasn't that bad either, that is, when he wasn't rooting through your head. Blondie was just as moronic and self absorbed as ever. Some things never changed.
Seth interrupted my epiphany.
What about the council meeting? You aren't ditching again, are you Jake?
I skidded to a stop. Aw, crap, was that today?
Um, I'm not going
I started my rhythmic pace again. I dove into the nearest bush to phase back to a human so I wouldn't have to hear Seth's complaints.
But Jake-
I phased before he could say another word. I pulled on my cut-off jeans and started walking. Seth started to bark, but I rolled my eyes and ignored him as best I could. I was almost at the Cullen's anyway. I heard him huff, let out a low whimper, then trotted after Leah, which was probably halfway to the freeway by now.
When I got to the Cullen's, I could hear Renesmee laugh inside, which made me smile. I turned the corner leading up to the front steps, when I saw Edward on the front step with Emmett and Jasper right behind him.
They all looked pretty serious, so I guess that meant Emmett and I weren't having that arm-wrestling match today. Damn, I was looking forward to rubbing it in his face when I won…
Edward rolled his eyes at that thought;
I started to walk toward them, taking long strides so I was there in five steps. I stopped in front of them and I folded my arms across my chest.
"So, are going to tell me what's up, or can I go inside?" I asked.
Edward spoke up.
"Were you just in the eastern forest, by the mountains?"
No, I just came from the west, I was hunting with Leah and Seth, I thought.
Jeez, what was it now?
"Alice saw something, or someone in the eastern forest, and it was a blur. It wasn't a human, it could be another vampire, but it's doubtful. Are you sure none of your pack members were in the eastern forest?"
I nodded. I was positive.
Edward stiffened, followed by Emmett and Jasper.
"Well then, if Alice can't see what the creature is, then it's obviously not completely human nor immortal…" Jasper suggested.
It took a few seconds for me to process the new information, and then I realized what it meant.
"So you're saying there's some other immortal thing in the woods!?" I half yelled.
Edward kept his voice even, "It's definitely a possibility. We don't know what it is, or if its hungry-or thirsty so I was going to take Em and Jazz with me to investigate. You have the option of coming to, of course. We might have to exterminate the creature, and we could use the extra help…"
Emmett grinned. Did he honestly think this was funny? I kind of wanted to punch him in the face. He just took everything so lightly.
Then, I instantly felt calm. Jasper must've used his 'magical powers' to make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Stupid Dr. Phil vampire. I don't need therapy.
I got back to reality and nodded at Edward. I wasn't just going to sit around and do nothing when there was a possible threat nearby.
I turned around and jogged into the woods. As I was looking for a bush to phase in, I heard Emmett, Edward, and Jasper planning. I hoped this was worth it, because if Sam happened to have not changed back yet, he was going to give me hell for skipping the meeting.
I trotted back over to the three Cullens in wolf form.
What's the plan, Edward?I thought.
"We're splitting up. Jasper and I will approach first; I'll try and get a read on it, see if the creature could cause potential danger. If there is a threat, I'll give Emmett the signal and we'll surround and attack the… whatever it is." He said. I nodded running 'the plan' over and over again go it would be branded to the inside of my head.
Then all of us took off in the eastern woods, listening, smelling, and looking everywhere to find something that could lead us to the creature.
I fairly close behind Emmett. Ugh. Their disgusting scent hit me right in the face and burned my nose. Reeking bloodsuckers.
It looked like it was time for me to get a haircut again. My russet red-brown coat was growing shaggier. I'll find time to do that, maybe tomorrow.
Hey, Jake!
I yelped and jumped a foot into the air.
Seth and his big mouth went on.
I didn't expect to hear from you 'till later, I thought you were with Renesmee.
The three vampires had stopped and now they were looking back at me while I was snarling at Seth.
Dammit, Seth! Aren't you supposed to be at the meeting? And don't ever scare me like that again, or I'll beat you dead!
Jasper and Emmett looked back at Edward for translation, but he said nothing and kept his eyes locked on me. I ignored him and went back to growling at Seth.
Sorry, Jake didn't mean to scare ya!
He barked a husky laugh, which he would pay for later. He shut his mouth at that thought.
I was just about to cross the freeway to La Push, then that's when you showed up…
Then I was suddenly aware of him flipping through the past ten minutes in my head. I snarled at him but he didn't seem to notice, and I knew what he was going to say-
I'm coming with you, Jake! On my way!
You're not coming! It's too dangerous! If something happens to you, Leah will tear me limb from limb and feed me to the sharks!
I barked at him for at least a minute or so before Edward yelled, "Enough! Jacob, let him come, he's already a minute away. The creature will escape the territory! Let's go!"
We started to run again, and then after we'd been running thirty seconds, I could feel Seth on my tail. He didn't say anything because he new I was pissed. Smart kid, dumb wolf.
We hadn't even reached the eastern woods when we heard a branch snap. It wasn't one of us, so we all crouched into springing positions and took inventory of the woods. All the muscles in my body were locked tight. Every one of my senses were at their' highest rate. My heart was pounding my ears.
Then, I saw it.
REVIEW PLEASE THE NEXT CHAPTER WILL BE OUT SOON!
