Chapter Thirty Five: Training

"This is so weird," one of the boys said as they walked around the field like a zombie, running into a member of his pack.

Shortly after talking with Jane and the Cullens, we decided that we would learn how to fight newborns, but the first thing that some people wanted to see was Alec's ability, not believing that he could cut off your senses.

Which is how some boys from Jacob's pack, I recognized CJ and Ricky as two of them, were now walking around without a clue as to where they were.

"I can't even hear my own voice," the boy spoke up again.

Glancing over towards Alec, I noticed that he had his arms crossed and a bored expression was plastered on his face as he watched the group of shifters, which consisted of four of them, act like idiots. Jane stood next to him, looking amused at the show that was being put on, before she glanced in my direction, a smirk on her lips.

Suddenly, one of the boys fell to his knees as he screamed in pain, his hands trying to tear out the black strands of hair on his head.

With wide eyes I turned to look at Alice who shook her head with pursed lips before she wrapped her arms around me.

"Jane's just showing off," she whispered into my ear just as the shifter stopped screaming.

"Was that really necessary?" Jacob asked, turning to glare at Jane.

Jane merely shrugged. "I was bored."

Jasper rolled his eyes at his mate before he took a step forward, turning his head in Alec's direction. "Alec, you can let them go now."

Alec only nodded as the four Quileute boys regained control of their senses, laughing as they pointed at each other.

"Damn, that was weird," one of them laughed, I recognized him as Embry, as he, along with his friends, walked towards Jacob.

Jasper cleared his throat as he waited for the shifters to fall back in line with their alpha, watching with pursed lips until he turned to look at the group of thirty wolves that waited at the tree line. Most of them had yellow eyes and eight of them had green eyes, looking wary as they watched the honey-blonde vampire walk closer to them.

"Now, you've seen the advantage that Alec's ability will give us, however, I'm not sure if he has used his ability over a group of seventy people, so he might not be able to cover them all. Even then, if he is able to cut off the senses of all of them, the newborns will still fight back. They might hurt themselves, or they could get in a lucky hit, but we need to prepare for every possible outcome." Jasper turned around and pointed to Emmett, signaling him forward with a movement of his finger, before he looked back to the wolves as Emmett walked closer to Jasper. "The first thing you need to remember is to never let them get their arms around you. They will crush you instantly. Any lucky hit they could get on their part could be fatal or not, it just depends on how hard they're swinging. My prediction? They will be swinging as hard as they can because they are freaking out, which means that, most likely, any hit they give us will be fatal."

"Can I go now?" Emmett huffed impatiently, crossing his arms as he looked at his brother. "Like seriously, I can't stand here and wait for forever, you know."

Jasper chuckled. "Alright, Emmett. Come at me."

Emmett cracked a smile. "My pleasure."

It was fun to watch Emmett and Jasper fight with one another, although, if I had to tell the truth, it was more like Emmett getting his ass handed to him over and over again. Jasper laughed each time Emmett got up with a disappointed scowl across his face, charging for me.

Watching this action taking place, however, had me itching to join them and I could tell I wasn't the only one. Some of the wolves were pacing back and forth, their eyes flickering to the battle field and then back to the ground, just waiting for a moment for them to pounce.

My wolf growled from inside, wanting to be set free, before I felt a slight pressure on my right hand. Looking down I saw that Alice had grabbed my hand, flashing me a small smile before she rested her head on my shoulder.

"Maybe tomorrow you can fight, but when we get back to your room," she paused, reaching up on her tip-toes to press her lips to my ear, "the real action begins."

A smile crept across my lips as my wolf simmered down, pleased with the promise of action later on, and I wrapped my arm around Alice. "Sounds like a plan to me," I whispered back before I looked her in the eyes, the topaz swirling with mirth as a smirk played on her lips.

"A plan it is, then," she whispered before pressing her lips to mine.

My wolf growled once more, though this time with hunger as I deepened the kiss, my tongue sliding past her lips and into her mouth, dancing with her tongue.

"DAMN!" Emmett yelled, startling me as I broke apart from the kiss, turning to look at him with my eyes narrowed into slits. "You should do that when the army arrives. They'd be too distracted to fight back, and at least they'd have something hot to remember before they died."

Alice rolled her eyes at her brother. "Emmett, shut up."

"What?" he asked incredulously, shrugging. "I ain't lying. You'd probably stop them in their tracks. We should definitely use you two as a distraction, am I ri—"

He was cut off with a loud "OOF" as Jasper pinned him to the ground.

"That's why you don't have distractions on the field, Emmett," he said as he let go of his burly brother, a smirk on his lips. "Edward, your turn."

Edward nodded and gave Jacob a peck on the lips, ick, before he traded places with Emmett.

Edward was an impressive fighter, I had to admit. He was able to anticipate the moves Jasper was going to execute and some of the werewolves looked impressed as they watched on with eager eyes.

"So," I heard a voice call out before I turned around and saw one of Jacob's wolves, Ricky, walking towards us, a smirk on his lips as he stopped. "What do you say to a three-way, ladies?"

Alice scoffed and looked at me with a "is he serious?" expression before she rolled her eyes and looked at him. "Ricky, fuck off."

"Come on!" he said with a chuckle. "Can't you put a little hot dog in your pot?"

"The last time a guy came towards me with his dick, I almost killed him," I said with a growl. Although it wasn't true, Micah's dick wasn't out when he tried to rape me, it was still a threat. "So you better leave."

"Ricky!" Jacob growled. "Get back over here."

"Damn," Ricky muttered under his breath as he ran towards his pack.

Alice scoffed. "Boys," she muttered before turning to me, grabbing my hand as she casted a sly smile. "So, what do you say about ditching early?"

My eyes glazed over at the possibilities about what Alice and I would get into, before I glanced towards the wolves and saw Holly looking at me smugly. Well, as smugly as she could for being in her fur.

"Yeah, let's go," I responded, "but I need to take a shower. I stink."

"Maybe I could join you," Alice winked before she ran off in the direction towards my house.

"Little stinker," I said under my breath before I ran after her, trying to catch up with my girl as fast as I could. I ran past her when we were close to my house and I quickly opened the front door and hopped in the shower. Alice closed the bathroom door as soon as I took off my clothes and her lips were on mine in mere minutes.

She pulled back, breaking apart the kiss as she hummed to herself. "Something is missing…"

"Someone has too much clothes on," I half-growled as I threw off her clothes in under a minute, her breasts pushing up against mine as she reached for the shower knob, turning it on.

We were drenched with hot water almost instantly, but that didn't keep me from pushing her up against the shower wall, my mouth on hers as my hands trailed down her body.

"I think I like that we skipped the training session," Alice giggled as my hands gripped her ass tightly.

"I think I do, too," I murmured against her neck.

"Hey, guys," Angela greeted us as I put my tray on the table, giving her a friendly smile as I took my seat.

"Hey, Ange," Alice greeted back as she sat down next to me, leaning against me as I began to dig into my lunch. "People treating you any differently yet?"

"Well, Eric keeps looking at me like he's disappointed, and there are some people who give me this disgusted look, but other than that, not really. They still try to look at my answers during tests," she answered with a shrug.

Be thankful you can't hear what they're saying, I thought just as I heard some girl make a snide remark about Alice and I turning Angela gay. "That's great, Ange," I said with a smile.

"Where were you guys yesterday?" she asked. "I had to eat lunch with Jessica and Lauren and they kept asking me questions. Not the way I'd like to spend my lunch period, you know."

I bit my lip as I looked at Alice, not sure if I should answer. "Leah didn't tell you?" was all I let out before I grabbed my fries and started munching, using that as an excuse as to not say anything more.

"No…" Angela trailed off. "Why would that matter?"

"Oh boy," I said, taking a deep breath. "It's a long story, alright. Do you know the reason why I was sent to Forks?" I asked, and when she shook her head, I continued. "There was this guy in my pack who was adamant about making me his mate, and when I refused, he tried to rape me, so I nearly killed him. Anyway, he's still trying to make me his and now he has somehow managed to manipulate a couple of vampires to do his bidding. And he's creating a newborn army with those vampires."

"Hence the killings in Seattle," Alice added with a nod.

"There are some members of my pack up here, quite a few of them, and we were training last night," well, I thought, they trained and I got shower sex, "so that's why we weren't at school yesterday. We were trying to keep the order between the three species."

Angela nodded. "So this guy…is he…stupid?"

"He's crazy, that's for sure," I chuckled just as I felt Alice stiffen at my side. Worried, I looked down and saw a blank expression on her face, her eyes glazed over. "Alice," I said, nudging her with my elbow, and when she didn't respond, I immediately sat up straight in my seat. Something was wrong…something was—

"She's having a vision," Angela said, leaning back in her chair. "That's what it looks like when she gets them."

Oh. "Thanks," I said with a smile as I relaxed, though that was soon gone as Alice gasped when she came back to the present, her eyes wide.

"Alice?" I asked, looking at her. "What's wrong?"

"The army…they're coming in about two weeks…on the Full Moon…James was talking about it, about how Micah needed to be at his most powerful when they arrived."

I grinded my teeth together as I heard Micah's sick sinister laughter in my head, taunting me. My Bella, you asked for this.

"We need to train every night until the full moon. We need to be ready for when this army comes. We need to defeat Micah, once and for all."

A/N: Since the battle is nearing soon, and since there will be casualties, who would like to guess who these casualties are?

Well, I'm not sure if I should warn you that this story is coming to a close, soon. I've got two more chapters to write, which means that, sadly, I am almost finished with writing this story. Sad, I know, but you still have Optical Illusion and the story that I'm writing, which has yet to be published, The Secrets of the Olympic Peninsula. The banner to this story is on my profile.

I'd also like to point out that I love, love, when people review and give me a specific part of the story/chapter in their review. I hate when people write the same thing over and over (as I said last chapter but apparently the one person I had wrote it about did not get the memo. You know who you are). If all you can say is "great story, can't wait for the next update" please don't review. I like specifics, and, to be truthful, those reviews do not help authors.

*sigh* Okay, rant over. Next chapter we learn something about Fiona.
