The shape shifters gathered their belongings and got ready to leave the Cullen's property after a day of training.

"Man those panthers are fast! Did you see how close that race was between Tre and Edmond-"Brady started.

"Edward." Seth corrected.

"Yeah Edward. Man oh man, if all those cats are that fast…we got a lot of work to do." Brady finished. Collin agreed then thought of something.

"Yeah but what was with him and his sister though? That's some insane sibling rivalry if you ask me." Collin commented.

"Hey Seth, do you and Leah ever go at it like they do?" Brady asked laughing.

"Oh please, you know Leah would take Seth down." Quil answered much to Seth's dismay. They all laughed while Seth attempted to shoot them glares. He didn't put much energy into them though. He was actually a little worried that Tre had showed so much of his aggressive side. Tamyra seemed better off when she wasn't around her brother, that's why he had suggested the guys go out to the woods for a while. Seth wanted to be able to watch Tre closely. It was strange. One minute he'd be joking with the guys and the next his testosterone meter would peak and he'd be ready to take out anyone who infiltrated his personal space. At least we got some good training in though.

"Hey we'll see you guys later." Quil called after Collin and Brady. Seth had been so lost in his thoughts that he didn't realize when they had made it back to the Reservation. The two younger boys waved back before heading to their homes. Quil pulled Seth along the road.

"Where we goin man?" Seth asked confused.

"We have some reconnaissance to do. I saw Paul and Jared scoping us when we were at the Cullens." This confused Seth. He hadn't even picked up their scents. Quil led them to a hide out across from Sam's house. They were hidden between houses as to not draw suspicion if their scents were picked up. Seth focused hard to pick up the conversations going on in the house.

"He must think it's going to be a difficult fight if they're training this early."Jared was speaking

"He's just being overly cautious."

"It looks like he's just going to have the leeches fight the battle for him."Paul spat.

"No. Jake may be the leeches' lapdog but he still has too much pride to ask them to fight his battles."Sam stated.

"If you can call that pride. He sure was quick to get rid of Embry when he found out he was a threat." Paul said skeptically.

"I still think it's logical for us to work with Jake's pack. He has inside knowledge from the panthers and both packs are going to be needed to take down those other cats." At least Embry still has some sense.

"Let him make the first move. He's not letting us in on any of his plans and he's keeping his pack away from us." Paul said determinedly.

"He did offer to let us join their training today."Jared countered.

"That's bull and you know it. He knew we would decline that offer. He wants to look like the good guy and say he tried to cooperate with us when all he wants is for our pack to go in there unprepared, so that his little pack and family can take out the main heads."

"I don't think-" Someone started to protest.

"Jacob Black has this all planned out. Right now we're going to go in there and get slaughtered. As long as we play the sacrificial distractions and his pack gets out alive, a few casualties on our side will be well worth it to him. All he cares about is that half breed of his and those stinkin bloodsuckers!" Paul finished his impassioned speech with a slam on a table.

"Calm down Paul. I know you feel- heck we all feel betrayed by Jacob but we can't just jump to concl-" Embry began before his distant voice was cut off by one very close to Seth.

"Well well well what do we have here? A couple of leech lovin spies?" Seth tensed when he realized he and Quil were surrounded by five of the younger wolves. Although the two had more experience fighting, 2 against 5 still wasn't good odds. The leader of the group started pushing Seth and Quil towards Sam's house. The four wolves seated in the house looked up at the interruption.

"We found these two spying across the street," the leader said. Seth could tell that before the boy changed into a wolf he probably had a very nasally voice which made him want to laugh internally. The five blocked the exits to the house while Quil and Seth stood awkwardly before their former packmates. Seth looked around uneasily before swinging an arm up to scratch his head.

"So um hey bros." Jared shook his head at Seth, his face a mix between amusement and annoyance. Quil apparently didn't like Seth's soft approach.

"Okay let's just cut to the crap. Jacob and Embry are fighting because of their family issues and its messing with both packs' minds. This is stupid because number one we have an enemy that's after all of us, we do not have time to be fighting amongst ourselves. And you have no right to call Jake a traitor because you all have or had imprints and you know how hard it is to not want to protect them. Jake is doing what he thinks is right to protect our people and Renesmee so if you have a problem with that then you can take a short trip off a tall cliff!" Quil huffed then bulldozed his way through the lanky teens and back out the door before anyone could respond. Seth, torn between feeling smug for Quil and awkward because he was still standing there said,

"Well bye bros." He caught up to Quil who had already gone half a block down the street. "Geez man, I didn't know you had it in you!"

"Yeah well all I know is I'm locking all my doors tonight." Seth laughed and slapped his friend on the back.
