Chapter 4

I held Jonah close to me, trying to keep my breathing steady. I had to remember that they helped, and that Seth trusted them. And the Wolves. What can I say? I'm a sucker for wolves that trust Vampires.

Seth... He was so sweet. And... Familiar. I swear I had known him before, or had at least seen his picture.

I took in a gulp of air, and with Jake, Seth and Leah leading us, we entered the Cullen's home. It was still as beautiful as the first, and only, time I was here. Jonah was smiling, and wanted down. Or Leah. I couldn't tell with him anymore.

"Ashton! Jonah!" A familiar voice called, as a familiar pixie vampire appeared in front of us.

"H..Hi Alice.." I said a little nervous.

"Aleec!" Jonah said, butchering her name. He had his arms to her. Reluctantly, I allowed Jonah to pass from my arms to hers.

"Jonah! I knew these boy clothes would come in handy!" Alice squealed, twirling on her heel.

Jonah giggled, and looked a bit dizzy from the spin. I smiled, watching. 'I guess the Cullens are different.' I thought as Seth lead me to the couch.

"You have no idea how different we are." Edward said as he entered the living room with Nessie following right behind him.

"Jake!" Nessie squealed, and raced to the large werewolf.

He caught her, and hugged her close. "Hey Nessie! Have you been good for Blondie?" He asked her, smirking.

Carlisle and Esme soon appeared, and I stiffened. When Jasper appeared, I felt calmness wash over me. But I didn't want to be fully calm, and was able to keep half of the calmness away from me. He was looking at me confused, and I was confused.

Edward was also looking at me oddly.

"Why are you and Jasper looking at me like that?" I asked, getting everyone else's attention.

"Because, my gift is that I can control emotions and try to make you feel what I think is best. But you always seem to block half of it." Jasper explained, his accent having a Texan twang to it.

I sighed, and looked away. I wasn't really comfortable, but I had to at least get used to them. Warm arms wrapped around me, causing me to look up at the beautiful brown eyes that was Seth. I was grateful that he was trying to ease my nervousness.

"Don't worry Ash. I trust the Cullens with my own life. And that of my families." He assured me.

I sighed, and nodded. "I know... But..."

"It'll be a little hard for you to feel like your fully safe. I know." He finished the sentence I had left hanging.

I nodded silently. Then Alice popped up in front of me, startling me.

'"Sorry! And you don't need to be scared. I can tell that we'll be close friends." She assured me, giving me a dazzling smile.

Jonah laughed, bringing her attention back to him, and she flitted to the kitchen. Seth, Leah and I followed. Bella and Rose making lunch for those that ate food. Rose made a comment to Jake that she heard him. Causing them to poke and call each other names. I looked up when Emmet entered, making Jonah wanting to go to him next. A small smile lit up my features, as I saw that Jonah was at complete ease with the Cullens. Something that he wasn't with, with the... Last vampires we had come to be feared of. I then remembered why we had to come.

'Didn't Seth say, that we came here cause of a photograph, and video?' I thought, hoping Edward caught the question.

"Yeah." Edward said, coming into the kitchen to answer my unasked question. "We didn't watch the tape though. We thought you might want to watch it with us, so that we don't miss anything." He explained, and I nodded.

"When do we watch it?" I asked, as a bowl of white rice, crushed hamburger and mixed veggies were placed in front of me.

My eyes widened, while I tried to remain from just attacking it. Next to Spaghetti, this was one of my all time favorite meals. I looked up, and saw Seth smiling at me reaction. I blushed, before timidly started to eat. 'I'm guessing Seth told them beforehand.' I thought, taking another bite.

Edward chuckled, and I glanced at him. He noticed, and smiled. "Just something Seth thought, is all." He told me.

I went back to my food, and saw Emmet having a food battle with Jonah. I sighed, watching as Jonah ate less of it, then throwing it at the larger vampire. "Emmet! You let Jonah eat. And Jonah, stop throwing your food around little one." Rose snapped at her mate, and her voice went gentle as she spoke to the three-year-old.

Emmet looked like someone had taken his favorite toy away, and I giggled seeing the forlorn look. He perked up, hearing my giggle, and grinned like a little boy. I smiled, and went back to eating.

"To your question earlier, we can watch the video anytime you want." Edward said, before flitting a plate to where ever Nessie was.

I sighed, and finished eating. I saw Leah feeding Jonah what was left of his food.

"Leah, could you keep an eye on him while we watch the video?" I asked her.

"Sure." She said with a smile, and turned back to Jonah.

I got up, with Seth right behind me. I guessed the Cullens figured I would want to get it over with. They were situated around the living room, where they could see the screen of the television. I sat on the couch between Alice and Nessie. Seth was standing right behind me.

They already had it popped in, and someone pressed play. When the blond vampire appeared, I cringed further into the back of the couch, and Seth had wrapped his arms around me, like he really was in the room.

"Ah, greetings, Cullen Household. It's so good to see you, even from afar. And even when I last saw you all, it was because it was thought you had given immortal life to child."

He chuckled, as if he knew a joke we didn't. Seth's hold tightened.

"Now, I am guessing you might know about me, as I know of you. But sadly, I don't feel like giving up anything, except that the wolves aren't very good at keeping those two safe. Nor are they, safe. Especially Ashton there. Hello dear. I do miss our time... Together." He chuckled, causing me to shiver a little, and Seth to growl.

"Now, I'm sure by now that I have an interest in the little boy, and his sister. Mostly since she is my ticket to forgiveness with the Volturi. And the little boy, well for reasons I care not to tell. But, if she and the boy are not returned to me, then we will use force to get them." He growled, and then the screen went black.

I let out a breath I hadn't realized I was holding in, and I looked to study the Cullens, then looked to Seth. He was scowling, and I thought I felt him tremble. I saw Jake look to Seth, and walked over to him. He whispered something into his ear, which calmed him down a bit more. I then went back to staring ahead, trying to figure out why this Vampire wanted my little brother. And wanted me to settle something, with some others called the 'Volturi'? Who where they? And most importantly, why me and my little brother? These were the questions that I knew would plague me for weeks.


I smiled, watching Jonah and Leah were running around in the Cullens' backyard. I was in a lawn chair, not really up to running at the moment. Seth came out, two drinks of pink lemonade in both hands. He handed me one, and I gratefully took a sip. It was a hot day, but Jonah didn't seem bothered by it. It had been a few weeks since Jonah and I came to the Cullens. There were a few instances that the blond vampire's female lackey's have tried to get to us, but Alice have seen them all, and with wolves showing up as well, I have been getting a little less tense around the Cullens. At the moment, they were all hunting, leaving Leah, Jonah, Seth and I. Jake had gone to visit his dad.

"Ahten! Look!" Jonah called, bringing me out of my thoughts. It was one of the wolves, and it was the Russet one. Seth seemed tense, as did Leah.

"Let's go inside." Seth suggested, and Leah nodded.

Getting the feeling that something wasn't right, and Leah picking Jonah up, we began up to the steps back into the house. I stopped mid-step, my eyes wide. Blocking the door, was the tall red haired female. The very same one that had killed my dad. She smirked at me for freezing, then snarled looking behind me. I turned, and saw that two more wolves had joined, with Leah and Seth no where in sight.

The closest one to me, was a sandy gray colored wolf. And it was snarling right back at the Vampire. A slender gray wolf was standing tall, but protectively over Jonah, who was keeping a tight hold on it's front leg. I took a step back, causing the Vampire to react. The sandy gray wolf was just as fast, and had collided with the red haired creature. I ran back to where Jonah was, and I watched the two fight. The russet red had jumped in to help, and were quickly over powering the blood sucker.

The slender gray wolf began to growl, and I looked to see the pale blond female just in time to see her tackle the wolf. They rolled, and picked Jonah up as fast as I could. Keeping him close, I hoped that the Cullens where close by.

"Hello dear." I nearly screamed, and spun so fast that I was sure that the vampire didn't even see me turn.

I pushed my fear away the best I could, and glared at him. "Keep away from me." I snapped at him. He smirked, taking a step towards me, and I took one back.

"Does this mean I don't have to stay away from your little brother?" He asked, and my glare hardened.

"You especially keep away from him." I snapped at him, keeping Jonah in a tight embrace.

Jonah whimpered in my arms, as he glanced at the male that had killed our family. I tried to comfort him, as I took another step away. His hand shot out, grabbing my arm rather hard, making me sure that he would leave a bruise. I tried not to wince, as I tried to pull away, only to be pulled back.

A snarl made us look over to see the sandy gray wolf had left the female vampire to be dealt with the russet red one, and was now advancing towards us. He went to lunge, but stopped short, as I was used as a shield. I then felt my arms empty, and felt the male's hold on me vanish. He snapped an order to the two females as he left, with Jonah in his arms. My eyes had widened, not believing on what had just occurred.

The slender gray wolf, and the russet red gave chase, as the sandy gray stayed by me. It whined, nosing my cheek, making me realize that I had tears leaking from my eyes. I turned to look to the wolf, and my eyes studied his. It showed sadness, and regret that he couldn't protect me, or my brother, just now. I slumped to the ground, not knowing what I could do. And he lay by me, watching me with beautiful brown eyes. This was the scene that the two wolves, and the Cullen's came to. With me looking off into space, and from shock. Shock that Alice hadn't seen the attack, and that Jonah was now in their clutches. I felt lost. Lonely. But most of all, I felt nothing.
