Summary: Bella and the Cullens managed to escape with their lives, but not without consequences. Bella is now more vampire than human. Life as they know it is going to change, and Bella, just might be the biggest threat to herself. Hopefully, Edward and the others can protect her from herself. They can't take any chances, especially since the traitor is still at large. Thankfully, Jasper is determined to help Anna figure out who it is. Can they find the traitor before he strikes again?
Chapter 1
It was a week after prom, and as agreed, we were meeting the elders of the La Push tribe at the place where it had all started. My family of four, and Edward and his family were gathered in the place where they had first met Ephraim Black and made the treaty.
Billy was already there with five other men. I recognized Harry Clearwater, and Sam. There was an older gentleman that I assumed was Old Quil, and then there were two boys who looked to be Sam's age.
Billy glanced warily at the Cullens before nodding to my dad. "Charlie."
Charlie nodded to Billy. "What's going on Billy?"
Before Billy could answer Emmett turned to me worriedly. "Bella, Anna's getting a strong dangerous sensation."
He passed her to me and I took her in my arms. "What's wrong Anna?"
Anna set her hand on my cheek. My body shook, vibrating so hard I felt like I could fall over. Even though my body wasn't really shaking, I felt the exertion from the sensation. The shaking got worse and I grabbed hold of Edward.
Panic filled his eyes and he wrapped his arms around me. "What is it?"
Anna gave him a sheepish grin and let go of me. The shaking stopped instantly. How did little Anna handle the effects of the sensation?
"Is everything alright?" Old Quil asked.
Charlie glanced between Anna and me. "Anna has a gift, much like a sixth sense." He turned to me. "Is everything alright?"
I glanced at Sam. "Anna's getting a dangerous sensation coming from one of your kind."
Billy and the other men looked towards Anna before turning to a young man standing on Sam's left.
"You'll have to forgive Paul he's young" Billy said at the same time Old Quil said, "Please forgive Paul, he's young."
Something about their comments made the Cullens tense. I could guess that a young shape shifter or werewolf as they liked to call themselves, wasn't very safe to be around.
Paul shook violently and Sam rested a hand on the guys shoulder. "Calm down Paul."
Something about Sam's voice must have calmed Paul because he relaxed, now only his fists were shaking.
Once Sam seemed satisfied that Paul was calm enough he stepped towards our group. "Allow me to start off the introductions. I'm Sam, I lead the pack. This is Jared, and Paul, my pack brothers."
We all nodded to them and Sam continued.
"These are the Elders of our tribe. Old Quil, Harry Clearwater, and Billy Black."
We nodded to the elders, while Anna waved.
Charlie glanced at Carlisle, the two of them had a silent conversation that only men seemed able to have. After a brief moment Charlie took a step towards the members of the tribe.
"You all know me," he started off with. "This is my family. My daughter Bella, and her cousins, Annabelle and Cissiley. And I'm sure you know of the newest members of my family."
I growl interrupted Charlie and we all turned to Paul. He was shaking again.
Jared rolled his eyes. "Get a grip Paul."
Once Paul had calmed down again, Charlie continued. "This is the Cullen family. Carlisle and Esme, Emmett and Rosalie, Jasper and Alice, and Edward."
Billy cleared his throat. "Now that the introductions are done, we can get down to business."
Charlie nodded once in agreement. "What's going on Billy?"
The three elders of the tribe spared each other a glance before they turned to Carlisle. Billy spoke up as the unofficial chief of the tribe. "We would like to amend the treaty."
All seven of the Cullens looked at him with surprise. Carlisle was the first to recover. "What exactly would you like to change?"
"Thanks to recent circumstances, we'd like to renegotiate the terms on being on each other's lands."
The level of surprise raised another notch. Carlisle glanced at Edward, when he nodded subtly Carlisle turned back to Billy. "We'd be willing to renegotiate."
Billy nodded to the two elders in a silent agreement. He glanced at Sam and the other two guys. "There have been some strangers on our lands lately. Sam has tried to follow them but whenever he gets close enough, they cross the boundary line. We'd like permission for the pack to be able to be on your land, in cases where they are following the people we believe to be dangerous to our people."
Carlisle agreed readily. "I can understand the difficulty of your situation, being unable to follow someone your tailing is a problem. I would be willing to allow it, if we can also ask the same from you."
Billy sat straighter in his chair. "We have already discussed this among ourselves. We believe that it would be beneficial to both sides. So we are willing to allow it."
Carlisle smiled. "Is there anything else?"
Billy shook his head. "We have nothing else to discuss with your family. I do need to talk with Charlie though." He turned to his best friend.
Charlie spoke first. "The strangers down in La Push, you think they're the people after Bella."
Edward hissed and tightened his grip around me. I patted his arm gently.
"You told us that we would know them when we saw them." Billy sighed, shaking his head. "These people don't talk to anyone, all they do is search the area. They don't answer when someone has spoken to them. They can't be bothered."
Charlie sighed, rubbing his forehead. "Those men are hunters."
"Bella hasn't been in La Push though, so why are they there?" Sam asked; his tone was hard, but thoughtful.
"There must be another transitional creature in La Push," Charlie sighed.
"So there's another one of her, around," Paul snapped.
Edward and his siblings hissed quietly. I on the other hand growled at Paul. "Transitional creature, not a transitional. There's a difference. Transitional means you're turning into a vampire, transitional creature means you are turning into a mythical being."
"Bella," Charlie warned.
I sighed. "Okay, so it could be a transitional, but we don't know that."
"Can you be sure that a member of our tribe is a transitional creature?" Old Quil pierced Charlie with his worried eyes.
Charlie stuck his hand in his pocket and pulled out his dad's sign.
"What's that?" Harry asked warily.
Charlie turned the sign so that they could see it. "This belonged to my father. I can use it to see if there are any transitional creatures in the area." He turned the sign on and we all waited.
It took a few minutes, but my dad was able to sort through the information.
"Sorry, I have to go through all this information about Bella, before I can scan for any others," Charlie explained.
Sam curiously took a step closure to my dad. "Is there a lot of information about Bella?"
My dad nodded, a look of annoyance, that wasn't aimed at Sam, was on his face. "The sign collects data. It gives the hunters information about what she's turning into, her powers, skills, any sort of extra abilities. What really makes them difficult though, is the fact Hunters that have come in contact with the said transitional creature can upload information they themselves have picked up."
At Sam's confused face he continued. "Things like, how they escaped them, how they used their powers." Charlie glanced at Edward. "If anyone was helping them."
He shook his head, sighing loudly. The noise was cut short though.
"What's wrong?" I could see the surprise in Charlie's eyes.
He let off a low whistle, and rubbed his chin with his free hand.
"What is it Charlie?" The urgency in Billy's voice was evident.
Charlie grimaced. "You do have a transitional creature down in La Push."
"Not a transitional though?" Sam asked, none of us missed the hope in his voice. He didn't want to have to deal with a vampire in his own tribe.
Charlie nodded. "No, it's not a transitional, in fact this creature is one of the more rare ones. That explains partially why you've seen so many hunters."
"Partially?" Billy cocked an eyebrow, at Charlie.
"This person is really close to completing their transition." Charlie shrugged one shoulder casually. "The closer a person gets to finishing their transition the more Hunters you'll see. Once the transition is complete the hunters leave the person alone. Once the person is completely a mythical being they lost. They leave them in peace. It's part of their strange code they follow."
"So, can you find out who the transitional creature is?" Harry went as far as clapping his friend on the shoulder. Somewhere in this conversation our two sides had blurred into a circle, and we had all gathered together.
Charlie turned off the sign, surprising us. "The only information the Hunters have is a signal that points them to La Push. They don't have any other information."
"And that's good, right?" Jared asked thoughtfully.
Charlie pocketed the sign. "Yes, in fact you're in luck. The signal is weak. That means the transition is past ninety percent. There's a good chance that whoever this is, can finish the transition before the Hunters find them. You'll just need to keep chasing the Hunters out of La Push."
"Can you track the person with that sign, like the Hunters are doing with their own?" Sam nodded in Charlie's direction eyeing the pocket the sign had been put in.
Charlie shook his head. "No, we don't want to use the sign like that. It will send the information we learn and any hunter anywhere would be able to get the information."
Billy rubbed his temples. "Let me see if I understand. There is someone in our tribe who is turning into a mythical being. A large number of hunters are searching for that person because they are close to finishing the transition and because they are a rare transitional creature. Their signal is weak making it harder for the Hunters to find them. Now we can help them by keeping the Hunters out of the area. Is that everything?"
Charlie nodded.
"What type of mythical creature is the person turning into?" Old Quil turned to Charlie.
"Ironically, the person is turning into a shape shifter," Charlie replied. "Transitional creatures that turn into shape shifters are rather interesting. Their form they turn into is based on the first creature they see. They'll take on all of the same qualities that the original creature has."
Billy shook his head. "While that is interesting, it doesn't really help us, and we have a more pressing issue to address."
"There is something worse than the Hunters being here?" Emmett's voice startled me, somehow it seemed out of place in this conversation. I wondered if the Cullens felt weird that they were getting to hear about a situation that was strictly La Push business.
Billy glanced at Emmett, his face was calm, but his eyes held worry. "No, this matter still deals with the Hunters." He turned back to Charlie. "If we push the Hunters out of La Push, won't they just go looking for Bella?"
I bit my bottom lip nervously, and turned to my dad.
My dad though was once again having a silent conversation with Carlisle. The two of them nodded. Charlie turned back to the elders of La Push. "Keep the Hunters out of La Push, but be careful. If they find out that you're chasing them away from their target, then they won't hesitate to attack. Right now, it sounds like they're just trying to keep you from finding out what they are doing. Right now they have no reason to expose themselves, but like I told you before, they don't follow any rules. They will expose themselves to get to the transitional creature."
Jared groaned. "That will make it harder on us. We can't let anyone know about us; if the people found out they'd freak."
Paul and Sam nodded in agreement.
"What about Bella?" Harry's eyes darted in my directions before meeting my dad's.
"We'll keep an eye on Bella," Carlisle answered.
Jasper took a step forward. "This sort of situation could actually be good for us." He continued after seeing the confused stares. "Just think about it. The Hunters have two different people they are after. We can keeping pushing them back and forth between our two groups. Every time we push them towards the other person both of our groups have a chance to stop some of them."
"Pick them off one at a time?" Sam tilted his head to the side, thinking over Jasper's plan.
I had to admit it was a good plan, but I could make it a great plan. "We might not be able to use the sign to track the transitional creature, but we can use it to track the Hunters. Duke has friend who used to be a hunter. We could see if he would be willing to let us borrow his sign, that way we have one and you guys can have one," I offered.
Sam agreed readily. "What would we do with the Hunters though once we catch them?"
"If we catch them?" Paul glared in my direction. "They've proven to be hard to catch."
Charlie answered. "I'll call a friend of mine, he'd be more than willing to help haul in some hunters."
Sam nodded thankfully. "That would be appreciated. It looks like we have a plan."
"I'll make the necessary calls and get back to you as soon as I can," Charlie promised Billy.
Billy nodded. "Thank you all for coming we'll be in touch." He turned to Carlisle. "I will send over the amended treaty for you and your family to sign."
"Thank you," Carlisle replied before biding them farewell.
We all turned back to head home. Edward broke off from the group, heading in a direction that I was getting familiar with.
"Don't you think it might be getting a little dark for the meadow?"
Edward took my hand and brought it to his lips, continuing to run towards our meadow. "Don't worry Bella, I can see just fine in the dark. Besides I needed a place where we could talk privately. I want to ask you something about tonight, and I don't want the others to interrupt us." He stopped in the meadow and helped me off his back.
I stood on my tiptoes and gave him a quick kiss. "Thank you. Alright, what did you want to ask?"
He pulled me out to the middle of the meadow and we sat down. "I was wondering about what your dad said, about the Hunters. Once you're a full vampire, they'll leave you alone?"
"Uh huh," was my clever answer. I leaned my head against his shoulder. "Then we'll only have to worry about the Undermining." I sighed. "They won't give up."
Edward gently lifted my chin so he could look at my face, look in my eyes. He deliberated for a moment on what to say before clearly changing his mind. "I love you Bella. I will always be here for you." He then leaned in to kiss me.
Author's Note
How was that for the first chapter of my version of New Moon? I can't wait to hear what you guys think about it.
So there is a transitional creature in La Push, any ideas who it might be? With what I told you, I can imagine how many people will guess right.
Just curious, what are your guys' theories about what's going to happen in this book? I can already tell you that the Cullens won't be leaving, Bella won't be hanging out much with Jacob Black, but we will be seeing him. So what do you guys think is going to happen? Do you think we'll be seeing Laurent in this one?
Look out for Hunters,
