Chapter 9
I thanked him and gave him a couple coins. My name was printed in the front of the folded paper. I unfolded and I recognized Edward's handwriting.
Jacob, I don't have the answers to everything. I don't know how to fix this. I understand that you were faced with horrible decision and you made the hardest choice of your life and you lost someone so dear to you. I can't tell you that you shouldn't feel bad. I can't tell you that if you go back to my daughter everything will change. I would be lying to you but what I do know is that she is hurting. Love is a complicated thing, when you find that person you're willing to do anything for them. You'd step into hell and face the devil himself if it were necessary. Love doesn't have limits or boundaries. Remember that, if you get past this look for her, we're in Brazil, in Isle Esme. She won't give up, she's too much like Bella, and you know that. She's a masochist and hard headed. I can't force you to do anything, make the right choice.
Edward
I crumpled the letter in my fist and let it drop to the ground. I swallowed the pain and went on my way. Canada would be good.

December…
Canada was…cold for lack of better words. A white sheet covered everything and snow dominated the roads. On the streets of Vancouver the people hurried into their cars or their destination trying to evade the cold snow.
Our mission in town was to find two covens of vampires who weren't necessarily complying with the rules, or should I say rule. They were no longer inconspicuous and they were causing commotion around town. They were having territorial difficulties and we waited for it to settle down though it never did. That was our purpose here. Felix, Demetri, Corin, Santiago, Jane and I were walking the streets at various speeds. It almost seemed as if we weren't together at all. We followed the scent to the woodlands just outside of Vancouver.
Jane seemed to be the leader of the mission, seeing as she could take us all without even touching us. We gathered in a semicircle a few steps inside the cluster of trees. "How far, Demetri?" Jane asked.
"Not far, their scent is very close. They won't hunt until tonight but they're in the area. One is in the east and the other in the north part of the forest."
"Corin, Santiago, and I will go to the east and find them, you three get the other three. We'll meet here. Jacob stay back until they've got them so they don't get too startled. Let's go."
Jane and her men ran off. Felix and Demetri took off and I waited about thirty seconds to sprint off after them. I finally phased after the few months I had been here. Guarding the city hardly required a full blown werewolf. I had been hesitant about it, I wasn't sure if I had been able to fully separate myself from the pack. The last members had gotten joined into one pack. The only one's left were the last six to join and Seth. Everyone else had quit a while back to be with their wives and Leah with her husband.
I took off my clothes and secured them on me before I phased. I felt so free this way. I waited for a moment to see if there were voices but there weren't any so I took off after the rest. I kept about a twenty meter distance
Finally they came to a stop. The scent hit me as we got closer and they slowed to a walk. We approached the log house in the clearing. We didn't knock, after a few seconds the three vampires came out in attack mode. They snarled at me and I returned their gesture.
"What is this?" The girl in the coven demanded.
Felix attempted to pat me on my head but I dogged his hand. "The real question here is, what the hell do you think you're doing? You've made the news various times, there are investigators everywhere. I don't care what you're fighting, we don't care what it is you're defending. All we want is for it to stop."
"Who are you to tell us what to do?" A blonde male challenged. His stance went from attack to cocky.
Demetri smiled maliciously. "It's our job, it's what we do. We take care of our existence and you seem to be threatening that but that doesn't matter now."
"Why's that?" The second male asked.
Felix looked down to me. "Take your pick, boy." It was cue that needed no explaining.
I growled at him and launched myself at the blonde male. He hit the ground not expecting my attack. He fought back but I knew he'd never fought a wolf before, he didn't know how. I tore every lib I could get to.
Jacob!, the voice in my head was enough to freeze my actions. Jacob is that you?, the voice asked once more. I recognized the voice to be Seth. Where are you?
I tried to not answer back, I tried to hide my identity. I shook my head and resumed attack. Around me Felix and Demetri were finishing up the other male and female. I hadn't fought in a long time but I don't think you forget how to fight. I stepped away only when I knew what I had done was enough. A few seconds later Felix and Demetri were aldo done.
I turned to look at them and they gathered the nearly white pieces of body. These poor bastards didn't have a chance. It was a bit sad but then again not really.
Jacob, why are you with them?!, Seth demanded. Are you in Canada?
You have no right to tell her, was all I said.
Why?
I didn't reply, I concentrated on one thing. I wanted to get him out of my head, I had separated from them before, I was the true alpha, and I could do it. I had the will. I had the power. I could separate myself from them all forever.

Someone suggested I do a fast foreword and I was going to do it eventually so next chapter we will take a trip in time.
