Chapter One: Surprises in Ireland

Jake and Cho had been gone now for a week, they weren't supposed to come back until next week and Nessie was already anxious.

"When are Jake and Cho coming back?" She asked Edward for the hundredth time.

"Next Wednesday Nessie." He smiled as he fixed her pancakes on their small kitchenette.

The Cullen's were staying at the summer home of some baseball star in Ireland. Esme and Rosalie posed as maids who lived in and cleaned the house. Their families were also allowed to stay with them.

Siobhan, Liam, and Maggie had already paid them a visit. Maggie really enjoyed seeing Nessie. They were almost the same age now physically so they could do more together.

"So how have you been?" She asked on their mini hunting trip.

"I've been good." Nessie replied. She really didn't remember that much about the vampires who came to her aid those many years ago.

"No more dealings with those lying Volturi?" Maggie growled when she said the Volturi's name.

"Only a little." Nessie grimaced.

They had been running through the vast highlands. Maggie stopped running and Nessie made a wide circle to meet back up with her.

"What's wrong?" Nessie asked.

"Have the Volturi been harassing you guys again?"

"Only a little." Nessie shrugged.

"I really hate liars you know." Maggie crossed her arms.

"Right." Nessie remembered that Maggie had the talent of knowing when she was being lied to. So Nessie went into the story. But she figured that Maggie would have something to say about how dangerous it was. Maggie reacted differently.

"Wizards?" She asked skeptically. "You can't be serious."

"Maggie, you would know if I was making this up." Nessie reminded her.

"Yea, I guess, but it just sounds weird." Maggie started walking again. They were in no hurry, they had already hunted.

Ever since meeting the Cullen's, the Irish coven had taken to trying the 'vegitarian' way of life. Maggie was the only one who was successful. Siobhan and Liam cheated every now and then, their eyes were reddish-orange whereas Maggie's were a sunny yellow.

"So who is this Scorpius guy?" Maggie asked after a while.

"He's just a friend that I met at school."

"Just a friend?" Maggie smirked.

"You would think I would learn not to lie around you." Nessie commented. "No, he's a little more than a friend I guess."

"Wow, who would have thought. I thought you and Jacob were inseparable." Maggie thought out loud.

"Yea, I used to think that too." Nessie sighed.

"What happened?"

"It will be easier if I show you than if I tried to explain." Nessie took Maggie's hand in hers and replayed the events from her disastrous year at Hogwarts.

"Wow, so the vampire/werewolf imprints go off and found their other half's in two wizards." Maggie giggled.

"Its not funny!" Nessie said but she was laughing to, it was kind of hilarious.

"Come on, we'd better get back Siobhan probably thinks you've kidnapped me." Maggie took Nessie's hand and they ran back to the Irish coven's home.

Maggie was right, partly. Siobhan was pacing with Liam shadowing her steps.

"Maggie!" she said as the two girls came into view. "We thought we had lost you!"

"I'm fine Siobhan, you worry too much." Maggie said as she patted the large vampire on the back. The Cullen's and Siobhan's coven talked to each other about what had been going on since they had parted ways.

Nessie recounted her eventful year at Hogwarts. Siobhan and Liam, like Maggie, thought she was joking about the wizards, but when Maggie told them it was true, they believed her without further explanation. Then, after more gentle prodding by Carlisle, Siobhan and Liam recommitted to the vegetarian style of hunting.

"We have to stay in remote areas such as this one to avoid temptation." Siobhan explained with a quick smile.

"We'll see how long this lasts." Maggie whispered to Nessie, who giggled.

"What is she doing here?" Edward asked abruptly. Everyone turned to stare at him and then in the direction he was facing. Someone was traveling towards them, much too fast for any human. Siobhan, Liam, and Maggie all tensed to fight whatever this may be. But seeing how relaxed Edward was, the Cullen's didn't mind, he would know if it was something dangerous.

"Miranda?" Nessie said when the blurr came to a stop.

"Hi." She said as she ran into the shade. The three Irish vampires were astounded by this newcomer.

"I'm sorry." Edward ran his fingers through his hair nervously. "Siobhan, Liam, Maggie, this is our friend Miranda. Miranda, this is the Irish coven." He quickly made the introductions.

"Hello." Miranda held out her hand. The three vampires just looked at it. Miranda gave up on introductions and turned to face Bella and Edward.

"We have a problem." Miranda said in a rush.

"What's wrong Miranda?" Bella asked.

"It's nothing serious." Miranda tried to lessen the urgency in her tone.

"I don't believe that." Maggie said, despite her fear of Miranda.

"What?" Miranda turned to stare at the short red head.

"Maggie has the ability to know when she's being lied to." Nessie said as she crossed her arms and looked at Miranda skeptically.

"A vampire that hears false truths eh?" Miranda rolled her eyes at Maggie before turning to the Cullen's. "I'll tell you about it later."

"Maggie?" Nessie asked.

But before Maggie could tell them anything Miranda interrupted. "Fine, I'll tell you about it when we get to your home."

"You're going to wait until we get back to Forks?" Emmett, who hadn't been paying close attention, asked.

"No, I mean your home here." Miranda seemed to be on edge about something.

The Cullen's said goodbye to Siobhan, Liam, and Maggie before following Miranda to their temporary home. She didn't hesitate as she ran up the stairs and threw the patio doors. Miranda, gracefully, sat down on one of the couches. Emmett and Rosalie went upstairs, but the rest of the Cullen's stayed to hear what Miranda had to say.

"Now what's this about?" Edward asked.

"Well…." Miranda hesitated.

Several things happened at once. They could hear someone in the kitchen rummaging around, Alice zoned out in one of her visions, and everything went quiet upstairs.

"Hey Miranda, did you tell them yet?" A voice came from the kitchen.

"You Idiot!" Miranda hissed. "I told you to wait outside!" She smacked her forehead with her palm.

"Shut up!" Edward and Alice started to laugh while the others looked at them, then at Miranda, then towards the kitchen. Then the smell wafted through the house, wet dog.

"I'm gonna kill her!" Rosalie growled. She was downstairs in a flash ignoring Emmett's restraining arms. "I'm going to kill you! How dare you let that fleabag in this house!" She screamed at Miranda. "I just cleaned that kitchen last night!"

"What's all the yelling for?" Seth asked as he came from the kitchen.

Rosalie glared at him, her nostrils were flared. Everyone else was either trying to stop from laughing, or staring at the two of them with shocked expressions.

"You've gotta be kidding me." Emmett was the first to respond. Always the first to get annoyed and always the first to speak up, that's Emmett for you.

"How did this happen?" Alice asked.

"Well…." Miranda looked at Seth. "At the wedding." She admitted reluctantly. The Cullen's gasped. "I thought he already had an imprint! He seemed old enough! He asked me for a dance, just a dance! I didn't think it would turn into anything, I swear!"

Seth had grown even more since the wedding. He kept his hair cut short and it was gelled into neat rows of spikes. He was wearing a plain white v neck t-shirt with blue jean cut offs and sandals.

"If you thought the guys were giving Jake a hard time." Edward snickered. "Wait till they hear about this!"

"You're not going to tell them are you?" Seth asked him worriedly.

"No, I'll let you deal with that particular mine field." Edward assured him. "Good Luck with Leah."

"Aww man!" Seth hung his head. Leah was the least accepting of the wolves. She had started by running off with Jake, which left her running around as the vampire's lap dog. That only lasted for about two weeks. When they first began out in London, she applied for a job at one of the local coffee shops to get enough money to attend one of the universities there.

"How's your mom Seth?" Bella asked.

"She's doing good, and so is Charlie." He beat her to the punch. "I'm no Edward, but I'm getting better at it!"

Sue Clearwater and Charlie had gotten together after the new peace treaty was signed between the Cullen's and wolves in early 2007. Someone had to explain the complications that came with being the parent of a mythilogical creature.

Seth was always the one you could count on to be easy going about the Cullen's, Leah on the other hand… They were as different as night and day. Sue had decided to stay neutral on the whole issue for Charlie's sake. She still helped Leah out by sending her all the extra funds she had. Sue would never admit it, but she missed Leah more than anything.

"So Miranda how's Scorpius?" Nessie asked.

"Humm?" She said as if she had been pulled from a different thought. "Oh, he's doing well, last I heard. I think he's upset that he couldn't enter the Triwizard Tournament though."

"The what?" Nessie didn't understand.

"Ah, the competition that did me in." Edward chimed in.

"That's right. You entered the competition as the Hogwarts champion." Miranda said. "I read it in your file."

"I have a file?" Edward was surprised.

"Of course, everyone has a file." Miranda waved his comment away.

"Will someone explain the Triwizard Tournament to me?" Nessie took her uncle's annoyance.

"It's a wizarding comptetion among the three major school's in England." Edward explained.

"Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Beauxbatons Academy, and Durmstrang Institute." Miranda counted them out.

"One champion is selected from each school. The year I was in it, it was me, Fleur Delacour from Beauxbatons, Viktor Krum of Durmstrang." Edward continued.

"Harry was selected as well." Miranda added. "But it was all a ploy to try and get him killed."

"They weren't expecting him to bring me along." Edward chuckled darkly. "That's how Cedric Diggory died. I wish I had been able to help him."

"Cho said that the unforgivable curse that they used on you should have killed you." Bella remembered one of the first conversations they had ever had with Cho.

"The killing curse only stuns vampires." Miranda was the one to correct her. "Vampires react differently to spells. Something I've had to learn the hard way." She looked at Seth and then away so quickly that Nessie didn't know if she had actually done it.

"So why would Scorpius be bummed about not being able to enter this contest?" Nessie wondered. Why would anyone in their right mind enter a contest where there was a posibility they could die?

"Well that's not technically true Nessie." Edward answered her unspoken thoughts. "What happened when I was there was just a fluke."

"Yea Ren," Miranda agreed with Edward. "Scorpius is just mad 'cause James entered."

"James?" Nessie almost choked.

"Chill out Ren." Miranda rolled her eyes. "He probably wont get it."

"So why can James enter but not Scorpius?"

"Because you have to be at least 18 to enter. It's still a dangerous contest to enter. I can't believe that Harry allowed his son to enter." Edward answered.

"Allowed?" Miranda snorted. "He's exstatic. Ginny is overreacting about it, but Harry loves that James is 'continuing the family tradition'." Miranda used air quotes. "Ted is upset that he finished last year, he really wanted to enter."

"How is he and Victoire?" Bella asked.

The rest of the conversations went similar to this one. Miranda gave them a minute by minute detail on all of their wizarding friends and the Cullen's told her about their newest exploits.

Miranda waited untill Nessie was fully asleep before she told Edward and Bella something.

"I have a secret." Miranda told them.

"I already know but you may want to fill Bella in." Edward grinned.

"Sometimes that mind reading comes in handy." Miranda laughed at him.

"No wonder Emmett finds this so annoying." Bella grumbled.

"Sorry, Scorpius is going to ask Nessie to the Yule Ball." Miranda whispered.

"Aww that's so sweet!" Bella said a little to loudly. "Sorry…." She whispered with a sheepish grin.

While the adults were whispering, Nessie had strange dreams again. The next morning, she tried to remember them, but came up blank. She only had the feeling that something bad was about to happen.
