An hour later we were off, the six of us shapeshifters running at top speed a beautiful roan stag slightly behind us. Ally and Kry both hitched rides on Bri and CJ.
That still sounds wrong, I thought shoulders shaking. Bri ran me into a tree and CJ just gave me a go to hell look.
Whatever, I just didn't get how we'd be in fighting condition when it came to the actual fight.
We'll take an hour long stop about 75% of the way there, CJ planned. I nodded shortly. Bri and Seth were too busy playing Random Thing (a game of some sort,) to pay attention. None of us bothered to get their attention, they'd stop when we stopped.
A half-hour later the nine of us stopped and took a break. We'd met the Wolves a couple miles back and had been making plans ever since, apparently Alice couldn't see any wolves, shapeshifters, or shaman. Which cut us a nice break. We decided a full surrounding after we checked the surrounding area for any of them hunting. But according to Jared and Paul they hunted a day ago, and sadly Bella had been changed and had woken up right before they came to find us. It hurt all of us to know that our new friend Bella, was a monster. Killer. Murder.
"Cullen better make she doesn't kill anyone or I'll kill him myself," I said as the thought passed through my head. Everyone nodded, Paul already shaking.
"Save it man," Chris said, his hair suddenly a shade darker after he'd been into the stream.
"Do you get highlights in your hair?" I asked mildly curious.
"Yes, I do. You got a problem with that?" Chris said.
I shook my head calmly and replied, "I just noticed it was darker. Which means your hair is probably originally brown correct?" He nodded .
"We need to leave guys, hour's up," Jake said putting something in my hand as he walked away. It was a bracelet, he must've noticed they're all I wear, besides earrings. It was a carved wolf and carefully inscribed in the back was forever yours, Jake. I smiled, tears forming in my eyes, it was the sweetest most thoughtful gift I'd ever received.
Ya it's fabulous now MOVE Bri said in my head.
Sometimes, I really DON'T like her attitude. CJ rolled her eyes and smiled, I knew I'd hear her thoughts later, if there was a later.
There will be, Bri commented. They both accepted their passengers and we continued on.
Ten minutes later we were outside the Cullen mansion Jared, Paul, Seth and a couple newbies were scouting for strays, and the rest of us were forming a silent and deadly ring around the house.
Kerry had sent all the animals within a ten mile radius away. Sitting patiently in a circle we all waited as the Shamans Ally and Kry worked their magic, literally. The two of them created a grid, when you stepped off the mansion and onto the ground the ground swallowed you and dropped you off in a volcano on anther continent, I personally hadn't exactly picked one but AllyKry did. They would tell us which one though, but none of us wanted to know. We could smell them, all eight and blood, animal blood, mountain lion to be exact.
Anywho I growled softly alerting them to our presents and phased into a human. I intended to talk to Carlisle, even though the conversation was three days four hours, two minutes, and 5.8276 second late. I still wanted a conversation, he was a nice man and didn't deserve to die, yet.
"Carlisle come out here!"
Allow him to pass, I commanded AllyKry. "Anyone who comes out with you will disappear," My voice carried, it sounded cool. A second later Rosalie came out onto the porch saw us all and flashed back inside.
Carlisle came out a second later. "How do we know you are not lying young shapeshifter?" I threw a leaf onto the grid, it vanished.
I shrugged as I stared at his amazed face. "It's alright for you to come out, you're peaceful. It is the people you allow in your home we are worried about," I said walking halfway out into the yard sounding oddly formal. He nodded and walked halfway too, with chairs.
I sat down on one and he sat on the other. "Now Miss…?"
"Miss Kristy, Carlisle," I said with a smile.
"Ah, Miss Kristy why are you here?"
"We are here Carlisle to ask for Edward. He must be shown we are not meant to be messed with and to not use our own friend against us," I said sweetly hands in my lap. He nodded and suddenly Edward was on the porch.
Girls please allow him a path to us and that's it. I mind-spoke. We could only do this because of the charm I was wearing on my ear, Jake's bracelet, on my wrist.
"What the hell do you want?" He demanded as he stalked across the path they'd made (it was softly glowing so he didn't get lost).
I smiled devilishly, "Eddie my homie! Wuzz happenin' on your side o' da town? Ya funkin' da ladies"?"
He rolled his eyes, "Speak like a normal human,"
"'Fraid I can't do that sir. Wanna take this to the actually fighting level or do you wanna debate the shit outta me. Cause trust me ya'll could bore a girl to DEATH! No wonder Bella's dead in there! What are you going to tell Charlie? Hmm? Or Angela? Have you found a decent enough lie that their lives won't completely crumble at the news? Sick bastard!" I screamed! Jasper sent me a calming vibe I dispelled of it. I jumped on Edward holding his chin up so he was looking at me I was SO close to killing him! But then, I thought of Bella and I couldn't I was more humane than that.
Edward grinned, "You too chicken?" I slapped him.
"No, I'm just thinking of your wife!" I exclaimed. "I wanna see Bella within four hours and if you don't comply we will kill one of you," I said and stalked off. Through the entire conversation the pack and the rest of the Original Nine were busy sharing information and making sure I was safe. I sank to the ground and breathed. Jake came over to me, human and held me. No words were spoken, because no words were needed. That night we all slept awaiting the next day. We'd agreed with Edward to meet with Bella tomorrow morning 8 am sharp. I groaned and curled up next to Jake and drifted off…
