Meeting Them
Author's Note- I do not own the Twilight saga, but I can still continue to live in that world lol. I only own any original plot and OCs. I hope you like it and don't be afraid to tell me what you think! Writers appreciate feedback. Thanks. :)
I always thought that my life would finally start in college. Hopefully, it would begin and I would start to feel alive again before I died out of sheer boredom at Forks High School.
I was Bella's little sister by two years. Everybody knew her name Isabella Swan after the little stunt that she pulled last year when the Cullens moved away. She had been the broken hearted girl that had been left behind, abandoned, by the hottest guy on the planet. For a short period of time, she had isolated herself from others and ate lunch alone.
Of course everybody or almost everybody knew Edward as the extremely attractive yet intimidating and slightly unapproachable youngest sibling of the Cullens.
Sure, humans could sense that there was something different about the Cullens, but they didn't know what Bella and I knew: the Cullens were vampires. But they weren't the kind that turned to ash under the sun.
Bella had told me all about vampires after I started to grow suspicious. She knew that unlike our mother, I wouldn't freak out, but she couldn't protect me like she did for Charlie because even if she hadn't told me, I would've figured it out eventually.
So basically everybody knew who Bella was, and they saw me as the little sister.
Since then, the Cullens had moved back to town and Bella was reunited with her long lost lover once again. Bleh. If only I could find somebody out there who was strong enough to scare all of the monsters away and still just as pretty as Edward.
"So where were you last night?" I asked as Bella drove us to school in her old orange Chevy '67 truck. Despite its age, it still ran like a champ if you remembered that it couldn't handle anything faster than 50 mph.
Bella yawned. "What are you talking about?" she lied or tried too.
She was never really good at being dishonest.
"When I went to the bathroom in the middle of the night, I noticed that you weren't there," I replied, surprised that after all of this time, she was still tempted to keep secrets from me.
Bella sighed. "The Cullens had another training session with the pack last night," she said. "I wanted to tag along to make sure that both sides behaved."
The pack consisted of Bella's friend, Jacob and some of the other boys that lived on the Indian reservation, and they just so happened to be able to shift into giant wolves or so I've heard. I had seen Jacob before he transformed, and I had to admit that he wasn't hard on the eyes. But I hadn't seen him or his pack since they had turned into wolves. They were busy with patrolling their land and sometimes our house at night from an evil vampire named, Victoria. She had her heart set on killing Bella ever since the Cullens killed her boyfriend, James. An eye for an eye. She knew that if she murdered Bella, it would hurt Edward and the Cullens in the process.
In the meantime, Sam who was the alpha of Jacob and his werewolf pack, was working with the Cullens to help take down a newborn army that was headed our way. A newborn army basically consisted of newly turned vampires. We didn't know who had created them or why they were headed our way; we just knew that Alice had a vision of them coming to Forks. She can see the future.
The werewolves and the vampires didn't like each other and that was just putting it mildly. But they both had to work and train together to make sure that this army doesn't hurt any of the innocent people in town.
I snorted. "I'm surprised that Edward let you stay out that late and with a bunch of dangerous werewolves."
He could be overprotective at times.
"He doesn't let me do anything," Bella said, acting stubborn. "He knows that I am an independent woman and capable of making my own decisions."
I rolled my eyes. "Keep telling yourself that," I said. Not only did Edward think the werewolves were dangerous, he also didn't enjoy Bella hanging out with Jacob. Before the Cullens had come back to town, Jacob and Bella had sorta turned into a couple. Well, a dysfunctional couple.
"Well, they are training again tonight, and I'll be there too," she said.
"Edward has been very generous lately," I said, "letting you out two nights in a row and all."
Bella frowned.
"Anyways, can I come?" I asked.
"Why would I let you come?" she said as she finished parking near the high school. "You love to make fun of Edward and I's relationship."
We both started walking from the parking lot to the school building. Our first period classrooms were located close to each other's.
"Its not my fault that you let Edward act like a father to you," I said.
She sped up as she attempted to walk away from me.
"If you don't let me come with you guys to the training thing then I will show him all of the yearbook pictures of you that dad has collected throughout the years!" I threatened.
Bella paused in her tracks.
Haha...guess whose coming to vampire slaying training tonight!
Everybody gathered around to train in a forested area near the Cullens house. So far only the Cullens, Bella, and I had showed up, but the wolves would be here shortly. Even though I had worn a thick coat, I still found myself shivering. Winter was extra brutal this year.
"Scarlett, are you alright, dear?" Esme asked me. She was Dr. Carlisle's wife which was not a surprise. They may have been born in different centuries before they were bound together for eternity, but they both shared the same kind heart. She also had more of a motherly nature even though she had never raised any biological children of her own. "If you are cold, Alice can run back to the house quickly and get you a spare coat."
Sometimes it could be nice knowing somebody who possessed an inhumane amount of strength and speed.
All of a sudden, a deep howl could be heard. It was strange but the sound was oddly comforting to me.
"It sounds like the wolves are almost here," Jasper said, his southern drawl as thick as ever. His accent sent shivers down my spine, and it wasn't because I was cold.
I pulled my coat tighter around my body. "I'll be fine," I said.
I could hear the faint sound of footsteps as the wolves descended upon us and something in my chest tightened. I couldn't explain it, but suddenly I knew that something good, something life changing was about to happen, and I didn't even know what it was yet.
At first, all I could make out was the color of their eyes. They all had varying shades of brown eyes that seemed to almost glow in the dark. As my eyes adjusted, I could slowly make out their bodies. They were in wolf form just like the Cullens said that they would be, but they were far larger than any wolf I had ever seen. They each were as large as stallions.
At first they appeared to be studying the whole group until something in the air shifted and slowly one by one, they each moved their eyes over to where I was standing until I had their complete attention.
Edward sucked in a breath as if he were horrified.
"Edward, what is it?" Bella asked, looking at him with a concerned expression on her eyes.
"I think they all imprinted," Edward said as he gazed over at me.
Imprinted? What does that mean? I thought to myself.
Bella opened her mouth, probably to voice this very question out loud when suddenly the werewolves (still in animal form) rushed over in my direction. I didn't have time to scream before they individually began to take turns rubbing the length of their body against mine, not in a sensual way, as they licked my face. Their chests vibrated and they growled lowly. At first, I had been scared because I thought they were going to attack me, but after a few minutes of this odd behavior I began to laugh. Clearly, I was in a state of shock. Did they act like this to everybody they had just met?
