A/N: Hey readers! Sorry for the really late update. I forgot to mention that this chapter would be another POV change. This one is told by Seth. The rest of the story will be told by Bella. 16 more chapters until story's end. Oh. I got a number of reviews pointing out my mistakes. I'm not perfect and someone pointed out things I already knew about like Ben being Angela's boyfriend and Bella knowing about Jacob's sisters. I KNOW THIS! For those who cannot read, this is a movieverse story not one based off the books. Stop telling me when I already know. I know this story better than anyone. GOT IT? Ok, enjoy!
Seth
Chapter 25: The Mutt and the Blonde
It was 7 in the morning and I rolled over in bed at the sound of my phone's alarm only it wasn't the alarm it was the message tone.
"I'm up!" I grumbled as I reached for my phone. Looking at the phone, I could see that the message was from Bella. The message said:
Come to my place after breakfast. I have someone I would like you to meet.
Immediately interested, I pulled on a shirt and a pair of track pants before hurrying out of my room and down the hall. I ate breakfast as quickly as I could before I rushed out the door followed by Leah.
"See you both later," I heard our mother call.
"Bye mom!" Leah and I called as we sprinted down the steps of our house and phased on the fly.
Did you get Bella's message? I asked telepathically.
Yeah. I wonder what she wants us at her place for, Leah wondered.
We ran through La Push and towards Forks before finally reaching Bella and Charlie's house. We could make out three figures standing on the sidewalk. All of them were female from what I could make out. I knew one was Bella and I knew the blonde woman standing next to her: Rosalie. But I didn't know the older woman who looked so much Bella is was uncanny.
Leah and I phased and surprisingly in our clothes. The other wolves came walking up the sidewalk having phased out of sight. They too were wearing clothes. I always thought that being a wolf would mean that we were buff (except for Leah) and ran out of clothes quickly. Clearly, there was a way of preventing a clothing shortage.
"Hey Bella," Leah and I greeted of our second pack mother.
"Hey Seth, Leah," Bella nodded in our direction as did the other two women standing on either side of her.
"Bella," came the chorus of voices from our wolf brothers as Emily would put it.
"Hey guys," Bella announced as they stopped next to us.
"What's this about?" Jared asked.
"Guys, I would like you meet my mother, Renée Dwyer," Bella said indicating the other version of her.
"Hey guys," Renée said with a wave of her hand.
"Mom, meet Seth and Leah," she pointed to me and Leah causing us to wave back. "Jared, Paul, Embry, Sam and Emily, Quil and I think you already know Jacob," Bella indicated each one of the others. Jacob stepped to my side with his arms crossed and a smirk on his face.
"You have certainly grown Jake," Renée smiled.
"Likewise Renée," Jake nodded in acknowledgement.
"So the mythical world of the supernatural does exist after all," Renée said out of the blue causing all of us except Bella and Rosalie to almost jump out of our skins.
"How did...?" Jacob started to ask before trailing off.
"I saw Leah and Seth phase on the way here and that's when I realised that the supernatural was in fact real. Plus, I also noticed that the Cullens haven't aged in two years," We were all completely gobsmacked. So much for thinking that Renée would take the mythical world thing well.
"So why is the blonde leech here?" Leah asked rather rudely.
"I'm here to tell you mutts that Carlisle would like to see you on the borderline," Rosalie hissed through her teeth. Unlike the rest my brothers, I actually like Rosalie and she was friendly towards me while the others she couldn't care less about.
"Is it alright if I come with you?" Renée asked.
"Of course Renée," Quil chirped before Bella could speak up. "It would be awesome to have you come and see what we do," Jacob hit Quil around the head. "Ow! Shit, what was that for?"
"Stating the obvious," Jake said taking Bella's hand and pulling her alongside him.
"You're together? What happened to Edward?" Renée asked.
"Didn't last. When Jake got hurt by a newborn vampire, I finally realised who I wanted to be with. Besides, I prefer the warmth to the cold," Bella told her mother.
"Fair enough," Renée said. "So, of all the wolves who's your favourite?"
"Mom, I don't play favourites," Bella groaned.
"It's me. She saves me from being bullied," I said sweetly. I know, it was a bit over the top.
"Why would anyone want to bully you Seth? You're the sweetest wolf of them all," Renée told me as she ruffled my hair.
Leah looked about ready to vomit. "That's so sweet of you Renée," I told her with a profound smile.
Upon reaching the borderline, we stopped a fair distance from the Cullens. We might have been their allies now but their smell was totally horrible.
"What's up, Carlisle?" Sam asked.
"We have company," Carlisle told us, his tone indicating worry.
"What company?" Paul asked turning to keep his temper under control.
"Newborn Egyptian vampires have just arrived on the Olympian border," Carlisle told us as if he were a drill sergeant.
"Newborns?" Renée asked puzzled.
"Newly created vampires," Bella explained to her. "Most are very uncontrollable when first created," Renée nodded while keeping her gaze on Carlisle as he continued to explain the situation.
"Well, we're officially screwed," Embry said all of a sudden.
"Embry," snapped Emily. "Shut up!" Embry did as he was told for a change which was probably a first.
"No, we're not," Jacob said making Carlisle stop his speech in its tracks.
"What are you thinking, Jacob?" Doctor Fang asked.
"We get Blondie here to contact your Egyptian coven buddies to put a stop to them," Jacob was a bit overconfident that this would work. I had known him my entire life and this was one of the moments were I would say 'pop goes the weasel.'
"As much as I hate to side with the mangy mutt, I fear that he's right. We have to call in the Egyptian coven for help. Their way of taking down newborns is completely different to ours," Rosalie said to her adoptive father. I wasn't at all offended by the 'mangy mutt' comment.
"So, what's going to happen now?" Renée asked causing everyone to turn around to face her.
"Bella, who's this?" Carlisle asked up tightly. Wait, is that even possible for a vampire?
"My mom," Bella told him.
"I thought you weren't going to tell her about us,"
"I wasn't but for the sake of the pack I thought it was the thing to do," Bella said bravely.
"And you're aright with this Mrs. Dwyer?" Carlisle asked.
"Yes and my name's Renée, Doctor Cullen," Renée knew Carlisle from when Bella was in hospital after the incident with James. Apparently, Carlisle had forgotten who Renée was.
"Carlisle," Carlisle nodded. Renée nodded in acknowledgement before allowing Carlisle to continue. "Rose, contact Amun and tell him to bring his coven. As for the wolves, see if you can get a scent of them. We wolves gave Carlisle a nod and most of us bolted off, phasing as we went. I stayed behind with Jacob to say farewell to Bella.
"I'll be back before you know it," Before Bella could even utter a response, Jacob kissed her quickly before hurrying off. I gave Bella and quick hug before bolting after him.
We bolted after the Egyptian nomads with extreme speed. The Cullens weren't far behind us. I could hear everything from Paul's threatening growl as he snapped at one bloodsucker's ankles to Embry's mind craving food. Boy, that dude can eat.
"Rose, did you call Amun?" I heard Edward ask Rosalie as I ran beside him.
"Yes, he and his coven are on their way now," Rosalie yelled over the speed at which we were running at.
Seth, take over from Jacob, I heard Sam order in my head. I sped up and was at Jacob's side within moments.
"Thanks man," Jake told me. He was in his human form and he looked absolutely buggered. From the legends, us wolves weren't meant to get tired as we can run for days and not get tired. It must have been an imprint thing since Jake was away from Bella.
"Jake, why don't you head home? We can take over here," I told him gently. I had phased back
"No, I want some credit for bring these bloodsuckers down," Jake breathed.
"Jake, Seth's right for a change," Jared told him. He too was resting after hurting his ankle.
"Hey!" I protested. Like always, Jared ignored me and tried to persuade Jake again.
"Jake, I know what it feels like to be separated from the one you love but I think Seth does have a point. The others can handle things here and the Egyptian Coven is due to be here in a few hours," It was only then did I realised had been running for six full hours without success... until now.
"We'll tell you when we catch 'em," I added. Jake nodded before phasing and heading back to Forks.
Please Review! Sorry for the short chapter.
