Chapter 7: New friends
Jacobs POV:
We fazed as soon as we hit the forest. It struck me than that I had no idea how to contact the new pack. I assumed that it would be like talking to Sam when we were both different alphas of different packs. I began trying to find a hold on something in my head to connect our minds, but I found nothing. I turned to Seth.
"Exactly how are we supposed to talk to them?" I asked him.
"I don't know how they will, but they said that they would contact us. Said that they would know when we had fazed. Freaky!" He let out a loud bark that was obviously a laugh, "This is just too weird. What next? Zombies?"
"Focus Seth," Leah snapped.
"What's your issue?" I asked her.
"Nothing," she said to quickly, but her thoughts betrayed her.
I laughed. She was jealous; very jealous. She had the insane idea that the new comers where joining the pack and would replace her. She didn't like them, and she felt betrayed that I had been so eager to meet them. I laughed again out load.
"Being a bit territorial now aren't we Leah? Just like a wolf, protective over your treasures. "Seth laughed with me.
"What's so funny?" a new voice chimed.
I had never heard the voice. It was very high and girly. The kind of voice that would fit a cheer leader, or a prom queen. Other voices soon joined the first voice.
"Oh did someone tell a joke?" Said a high and exited voice that seemed to come from a girl of about 12.
"This is hardly a time for jokes, don't you think Amanda?" Lower than the others, and sounding judgmental.
"Cool it Jackie," Said the oldest voice yet.
"Did I miss anything?" Piped as small voice that seemed to come from a girl about the size of Alice.
"No Amy, we haven't started yet," Another girly voice.
"Where is Candice?" asked the childish voice.
"I'm here," Lower, and more vibrato.
It took a while till the voices finally calmed down enough to make any sense. I decided it was time to make my move.
"Um-Hello," I tried, and it got all of their attention. They all fell silent untell the oldest voice answered.
"Hello! You must be Jacob Black. I'm Amanda, and these are my sisters, Jackie, Page, Candice, Ginny, Oregon, and Markeia," I saw her turn to each of them in turn as she said theyr names, "We are all so pleases to meet you acquaintance."
"It's my pleasure I'm sure. I only wish that it was under better circumstances." I tried to sound like I knew what I was doing. After all I was support to be this great and mighty Alpha from years ago.; Jacob Black who had won the battle of the new born army, and concord the Volturi once before.
"Yes, I wish that as well. But scene it does in fact have to be under the current troubles, we would be wise to get moving. I only assume that you have some questions for us." She said.
"Just a few," I said.
"Well, pleas, ask away. What can we tell you?" She asked.
"Well let's start with the basics: How long has your family been changing?"
"My mother was the first, and she was 15. I was the next, when I was 14. My mother was adopted though, so we have no record of her parents."
"How old are all of you now and when you changed?"
"I was 14, as I already said, and am now 20; Jackie was next at 13, and is now 17; Candice was 14, and is now 16; Page and Delilah are twins and both turned at 12, and are now 15; Ginny was 13 and is now 14; and lastly Oregon turned just a month ago and is 13." Amanda said. I hoped that Edward was listening so that he could fill every one in; with all the photographic memories, I wouldn't have to remember all the details that where flying at me, top speed.
"What tribe are you associated with?" I continued.
"We are not with any tribe at the time being. We live in Spokane, up by the border, and can only assume that we connect to your tribe."
"What do you do as wolves?"
"Well hunt Vampires of Corse," Jackie said in a rather astounded voice, making it seem that she thought that I was a total idiot.
"Jackie," Amanda warned, "it is never to be assumed." She seemed embarrassed at her sister's behavior. "As my sister said, we work to rid the area of Vampires, just as you do. It is not often that we are needed in service, but we are quick to help if the situation calls for us." She said, talking to me again.
"Good. I assume that my Betas have filled you in on our static with my family and wife?" I asked, nervous and protective.
"Yes of cores. And you have our full cooperation with any one whom you are associated. I must say that I find your little family quite intrusting." They were an edge of disbelief and amazement to her thoughts. The sound of our coexisting with the Cullen's, would seem unbelievable to an outsider.
"I think that covers all the basics. Now for the more pressing matters: How well have you been informed about the coming battle with the Volturi? And how much do you know about the Volturi themselves?"
"As for the second Question, we have learned much about the Volturi through a passing Vampire about 5 years ago. He made peace with us, promising not to fight or hunt, and, intern, in lightened us on the world of Vampires. After that we did as much research as possible, and got the base of things. And as for the battle: We are willing to give you all we can. We all plan on helping one way or another, and want to achieve the same goal. The battle is now just as much our biasness as it is yours. If the Volturi come to take out our kind, than I have little doubt that they will hesitate to rid the world of our pack as well. We will do whatever you command of us, with full cooperation." Her words sounded so sincere that it was impossible to doubt that they were true.
"Than it's settled; welcome to the anti-Volturi club." I smiled, and everyone laughed.
"When can we arrange to meet your family and pack? We would like to help the planning if that's alright." Amanda said.
"The sooner the better. Can you be here by 5:00 tomorrow?" I said excitedly.
"No prob. Would you like us to come to Forks of La Push?"
"Let's have you meet the pack in La Push first."
"Yes sir! Look forward to seeing you then." Amanda seemed just as excited as I was, " signing out!"
Than all the voices disappeared one by one.
