"M-my funeral?" I stuttered out and felt him nod.

"We had to come up with something Piper."

"How did it happen?" I whispered and it was barely above a breath.

"Car crash, the body in the car was charred beyond recognition." He supplied.

"Body?" I frowned.

"It was a Jane Doe's bones from a few years back," he answered and I felt disgusted with myself for causing this.

He pulled back on of his arms and I heard a softly jingling of metal and but I smelt it first: the cold smell of silver with a metallic char. "I hope you don't mind but we took this so your parents would ID the body as yours."

He held out my thimble necklace and bear ring, both a little blackened, "my parents?"

"They're doing alright considering… moving away." I gave a slight nod.

"Wait car?" my eyes widened. "You crashed my Jeep," I growled and he backed up slightly as I turned around easily and landed on the deck.

"Technically Jasper and Devan did."

"You guys crashed my Jeep!" I growled louder and heard a soft laughing inside.

"Told you she would be mad," Rose remarked.

"I'll get you a new one," Devan spoke and I sighed and rolled my eyes leaning back against the railing with the change in the mood.

Emmett walked forward and wrapped his arms around my waist. "Are you ok?"

"I don't know," I muttered wrapping my arms around his waist. "My emotions are on a roller coaster. You all are jumpy around me…and my parents…" I trailed off not sure I could say that.

I felt his hand run up and move over something, furrowing my eye brows I moved my hand up and my finger touched the crescent shaped scar. "It was only one second," I murmured remembering it and remembered Seth and the wolves.

"What about the wolves," I looked up at his face.

"They all saw what happened through Seth, everything's fine in a treaty's sense," He said.

"But not in other ways?" I caught that he was hiding something.

"I'm not sure that…"

"Emmett Cullen I can take you down right now. Don't test me," I glared.

"Jacob got hurt," he frowned and I gasped. "He is going to be alright Carlisle is taking care of him."

After a long pause he couldn't stand it.

"In better news Edward and Bella are getting married," He chuckled

'That's good,' I murmured to him and felt him tense slightly and giggled.

"She's in amazing control for a newborn, actually for any vampire," Jasper said and I looked over to see him looking out the window at me.

Trying out my new trick I concentrated on him, 'Thank you.'

"Her gift is weird though," he muttered and I let out another giggle.

Turning back to Emmett I smirked up at him, 'kiss me.'

I saw him smirk and lean down molding his lips to mine, gripping onto his shoulders I pulled him closer and he leaned in bending me over the railing slightly. Suddenly he lifted me and I was up on the railing again and wrapped my legs around his hips. I felt his hand go to my lower back and pull me in closer and I let out a soft moan.

"Get a room," Devan called.

'Hush,' I growled into his mind but pulled back from Emmett.

"What's wrong?" He asked confused.

'It's weird doing this knowing everyone can hear.' I was sure if I could then I would blush.

"Alright," He chuckled and leaned in leaving another lingering kiss.

oOo

I could only tell that it was the next day because the sun started coming up, I hadn't even felt the need to sleep and mostly just spent the day cuddled into Emmett's chest. Then I watched them getting ready, Edward, Alice, and Emmett.

Edward and Emmett were in normal dress suits, and Alice was in a black simple, but stylish, a-line dress and jacket.

"We'll be home soon," Emmett frowned leaning down to kiss my forehead I just gave a small nod while curled up on the couch.

I don't know how but I'd had so many mood swings over the past hours since I woke I wasn't sure how to cope.

"You feel confused," Jasper acknowledged from his spot in the chair and I turned to him

"I am confused," I whispered. "I don't know what to do, or why I'm all of a sudden bipolar."

"Well for one you're bipolar, as you put it, because our emotions change suddenly. It's normal for a vampire, especially a newborn. That's why I was so cautious around you when you woke up." He paused and I nodded letting out a long exaggerated sigh and he chuckled. "Now as for what to do, how about I teach you how to fight."

Suddenly I had another mood swing and smiled over at him, "Really?"

"Yeah," He nodded and I jumped.

"I'll be right back," I rushed up to Emmett and I's room where Alice had gone to get some thing's of mine but not enough to alert my parents. Quickly I grabbed a pair of khaki loose cargo pants and a long sleeved thermal and blurred back down the stairs. "Ready," I smiled and he let out a laugh.

"You two be careful," Esme warned.

I flipped over the railing on the deck and ran out into the middle of the backyard to prepare for Jasper's lessons.

oOo

Just like he told me I concentrated on his body position in preparation for where he was going to go and just as he charged I cart-wheeled over him. He passed right where I was as soon as I got in the air, and quickly as I landed I crouched down and he jumped through where I had been; then just as quickly jumped back into the air back flipping away.

Granted he wasn't fighting to his full potential acting and was acting as a newborn would have, but I was getting better.

Just as I landed I saw him crouch and spring, and remembered the blurry lesson in the clearing and took a quick step to the side then listened to him crouch again. I back-flipped over him just as he flew through where I had been, then letting out a laugh, I concentrated and heard something I wasn't expecting.

"Piper?" It was Bell'sa voice and Edward was quickly pulling her away from the window. Instantly Jasper was at my side.

'Why is she here?' I asked Edward in disbelief.

"She's worried about you, she won't stop asking."

Sighing I hung my head, "Keep a tight hold on me," I said to Jasper and he quickly took hold of both my arms. Slowly Edward walked out guarded in front of Bella and she came out looking over and around him.

I stopped breathing all together and looked up to see Alice dancing in, behind it all with Emmett.

'This isn't smart," I spoke to all of them.

"We trust you Piper," Alice smiled and I let out a low growl and felt Jasper tighten his hold slightly so it was almost painful.

I watched Bella peek out from behind Edward's arms and made eye contact. She took a step back and gasped.

"That's shocking," she commented.

"You have no idea," I used my last supply of air and cursed myself.

She looked confused at Jasper's hold on my arms.

I closed my eyes and calmed myself and took a breath as her scent blew at me. The fire ripped in my throat and I cringed but opened my eyes and saw who it belonged to. There was no way possible that I could attack her. All of them looked amazed except Bella and Alice.

"Told you," Alice boasted.

"I'm fine Jasper," I murmured and looked around Edward a bit, "Hey Bella," I smiled and she looked surprised.

"You look so different, and sound different," she smiled.

"Imagine waking up and finding that out," I smirked and she let out a slight laugh. She took a step toward me and I took a step back. "I think distance is key here."

"What were you guys doing when we got back?"

"I was teaching Piper how to fight," Jasper offered, "she's a natural."

"Awe thanks Jazz," I smiled and put my arm around him.

"We'll see about that," Emmett chuckled and took off his jacket.

"Remember I'm just a beginner," I pouted and we moved out into the middle of the back yard as the rest moved up on the deck.

"I'll go easy," he kissed the top of my head, and I smirked walking away.

"This doesn't seem like a good idea," Bella murmured for the deck and let out a giggle

"I've got 2 on Piper to last five minutes," Jasper commented and I was pretty proud that my teacher had so much faith in me even if I probably would lose.

"I'll take that," Edward joined.

Taking my stance I concentrated on his stance and saw him start to charge doing the same just as his arms grabbing for me and I flipped over him landing to face his back. I heard him groan slightly and reverse direction. His muscles tensed to launch and I ran skidding under like a base baller sliding into home plate but this time went on the offensive quickly getting up and throwing him back another ten yards with minimal strength. He was quickly up and running but as I prepared for him to run straight as me he swerved to the right catching me off guard and I felt a slight force to my chest as I was thrown into the air.

I heard a slight gasp over at the porch and smiled as I flipped backwards and landed on my feet but froze as I felt a hand wrap around my back and lips touch my neck.

"You are a natural. Very graceful and calculating," Emmett complimented and I smiled and turned kissing his lips softly.

"Thank you," I smiled and quickly linking hands with him racing up to the house. My shove had put us all the way back to the river.

"That just seems wrong I mean Piper is so much smaller."

"Yeah but Bella," Edward started, "she could easily beat him if she had the skills.

'You hear that, a few more lessons and I'll take you down mister,' I smirked up at him as he let out a loud laugh.

We walked in behind everyone else and suddenly Bella's scent hit me hard in the confined space and the burning in my throat got worse. 'I need to go hunt if she's going to be around.' I thought to Emmett and he gave a small nod.

"Just let me go change," He said while going up stairs as everyone spread throughout the house.

"Change for what?" Bella asked and I gave a cautioned look to Edward before going outside and waiting on the porch.

"Newborns get thirsty faster," He started, "and with your scent she's fighting a lot harder."

"They're going hunting," she supplied and Edward nodded as Emmett came back down the stairs in a pair of loose jeans and a t-shirt.

"Alright let's go," he smiled and I knew that he was just coming to basically babysit me but I was grateful. Reaching up I moved my hand around the back of his neck and pulled him down to me. He got a small smirk, showing his dimples as he own hands moved around my sides and settling on my lower back as his lips pressed to mine. He didn't hold a thing back as I felt his hands press onto my back and pull me tight into his chest, something that would have crushed a human, and then pulled back with a cocky smirk. "Ready?" He quirked an eyebrow.

"Yup," I popped the 'p' and leapt over the railing with him right behind, and as I got to the river I simply flipped over and raced in already getting the scent of some deer to the west.
