Chapter 12 – Calm before the storm
The next two days I learned the basics on how to defend myself and attack a vampire. If it wasn't for the fact that I had my own secret weapon that I knew how to use I would for sure thought I was going to die. I was not a good fighter, Emmett and Jasper told me I would get better with time but I found it extremely difficult to believe them. I really did suck.
We were all planning to hunt tonight since Alice said she saw them coming tomorrow earlier afternoon. We wanted to have as much strength as possible, we didn't go far from home and we all tried to stick together. It was difficult though; there were 9 vampires, a half-vampire and a werewolf. I was able to take down two deer's and an elk. When I was done I walked over to where Jacob and Reneesme sat.
"You guys done?" I asked, the both nodded their heads. "Mind if I sit?" Jacob moved over giving me space to sit on the log they were sitting on, neither of them said a word.
As I sat there I could feel the emotions of everyone around me. I tried not to think about it but it was had when everyone was feeling all doom and glum. Well not Emmett, he was bouncing off the walls ready for a fight. This feeling was horrible; I couldn't wait till tomorrow so that everyone would go back to being normal. Alice had told us time and time again that the outcome would be fine and that we didn't have to worry so much. But I don't think even Alice believed herself.
I leaned back, and lied down on the mossy surface of the forest staring at the stars in between the tree branches. I was focus so intently on the stars that I almost forget where I was; it was so peaceful there was something so calming about it. I lifted my head up to look at Jasper. He just looked back at me and winked. I sighed and laid back down.
So looking up at the stars wasn't as peaceful and calming as I thought, nope that was just Jasper. I was thankful for Jaspers ability; once I was able to accept him manipulating emotions I was better at controlling my temper when he did. Though I was disappointed that I couldn't return the favour to him, I was pretty sure that he would have loved some calming waves in his direction. I giggled to myself.
"If you're done daydreaming Jaden, we would like to go back to the house" Emmett looked down at me and held out his hand. I reached for his hand; he pulled me up so swiftly and placed me over his shoulder.
"Hey! Put me down!!" I shouted as I tried to wiggle out of Emmett's grip. He started to laugh, I couldn't help but laugh. This is what I needed; this was the sense of normalcy. I looked up at my new family as they were walking behind Emmett they were all laughing, even Jasper was smiling. At that moment I felt that we were going to be alright.
