The other day while watching the promo for Breaking Dawn Pt. 2 I realized something that made me proud and frown at the sametime. I am in Eclipse now with Jaiden and once that is over I will only have Breaking Dawn and then a few extra chapters before Seasons Call is done. This is a weird revelation...

-Darklight


It seemed like after that night something changed on the reservation and I could help but think it might be for the worse. Billy sat in my kitchen staring at me as Charlie had a conversation about the game that was on. How I got roped into game night at my house I would never know. I was frying fish that Billy, Paul, and Charlie had caught that morning the same moring that Paul said that he was set to gaurd Charlie. Which ment go fishing and do other manly things, I flipped the fish and frowned shifting my feet a bit as I was set on finishing the frying even though my body was so tired I probably could pass out.

Jasper's training was grueling with Rosalie helping which made it ten times worse. She didn't want for me to have an accident while fighting a newborn so she was treating me like her punching bag. Of course It was out of love and concern and also her trying to convince me that I couldn't fight off a newborn. I was dead set in proving her wrong even if it did mean I would have to bruises thanking who ever was out there and Sam that Pauls patrols were the same time as when I got home from 'work'. Alice helped and with Emmet's hacking skills I was able to have forged records of my 'work'. It was a rather new Florist company out of Elwha and I was in charge of organizing shipments, A very hands on job that would explain my gain in muscle mass also since it was closer to Port Angeles it would explain my hours away from the house.

"Jaiden." I turned around to face Billy who looked at me then at Paul "How have you been?" Billy asked I knew it ment more than just if I was okay "I've been good" I said He nodded "Its just that you seemed to be a bit troubled, How are you liking being a florist?" I smiled "Its a lovely job, very physicaly demanding but I enjoy it. You know why I would be troubled." I replied trying to be respectful to my fathers oldest friend. Charlie looked over at us "Did you finish that fish Jaiden! You should have seen Paul on the water." I laughed "Its almost done." I said as Billy spoke up "Having your imprint working with them would be very difficult." I flipped the fish and ingnored the pop of grease over my hand.

I leaned on my counter and looked over at him "Paul is okay with working with the Cullens, Billy."I stated "Are you sure?" I faultered enought for Billy to smile and roll into the living room. I watched him realizing I had no idea if Paul really was okay with working with the Cullens.


I leaned on the truck as I stared into space "He needs to hurry." I stated Jacob shot me a agreeing look "Will you be back later for the Trible gathering?" He asked watching the road infront of us "Of course, Paul wouldn't let me get out of it." I said smiling at the thought of Paul. "Will it be like this when I imprint?" Jacob muttered I looked over at him confused "You're willing to do anything for him." I shook my head "No, I wouldn't give up my family." I stated Jacob shook his head his voice shaking "If Bella's changed then you will loose your family." I went to reply as the dark colored Volvo pulled up and Edward got Bella out of the car.

I smiled "Hey." I said walking to them as I heard Edward mutter "Doesn't he own a shirt." I snorted turning and winking at Jacob who smirked. I knew he was enjoying this and I wasn't to happy about having to drive with Edward since Paul wanted to work on my Jaguar claiming it needed a tune up, Also Jasper told me that I might want to have someone drive me. I have a sickening feeling I was going to get my ass kicked...again. Edward got in a looked at me "You enjoyed his display?" He asked as he drove away from them with the ungodly speed that most if not all Vampires used when driving. "You did the same except you attacked her face." I said giving him a look "It was a kiss nothing more." He stated I raised an eyebrow "And my mama was a glass maker." I scoffed. He smiled a bit before turning into his regular surrly self.


"Get up try again." I gasped as I laid on the ground facing the sky my whole body burned "jaida!" Shouted Jasper I groaned and stood on shaky leggs "Try again." He stated I ran towards him but couldn't pushing him at all and ended up back on my but with a shove from him. Jasper frowned as he helped me up "This isn't working." He said I frowned "Let me try again." I said yawning and wincing as I shifted onto my right leg. "No, Go get some rest." Jasper said I frowned feeling disapointed in myself as I shuffled inside dirty from hitting the ground so many times.

Jasper helped me inside and quietly left me on the couch to talk to Carlisle "Jaida you look horrible." I snorted up at Emmet who looked down at me and winked holding up a cup. I groaned I took it knocking it back "This tastes diffrent.." I muttered as I looked down at the glass it was blood but diffrent smelling it smelt sweeter. "Yeah it is." Emmet stated his eyes going a tad black before he took the cup and washed it out quickly. I laid back down and then jolted up feeling a rush of energy "Fuck!" I shouted as Carlisle and Jasper ran out of the study "What the hell was that!" I shouted jumping up and down my body felt like it was on speed.

"Jaiden relax." Carlisle stated watching me with a warry expression "I...I...Okay." I stated trying to calm myself down. "Breath in and out and just try to focus." Jasper said feeling my frazzeled feelings "What did you put in the blood? LSD?"I snapped as he walked me out of the house and back outside that was practicly torn apart from our scuffles. "No. Tackle me." I jumped from foot to foot as I stared at Emmet "You have to be joking." I said Emmet nodded. I frowned "Okay fine..." I closed my eyes and focused or at least tried too, My body was speeding and I took a step then two then three and soon I was racing towards Emmet who stood looking at me with a cocky look.

I wanted to wipe that look off of his face, I ducked down like Jasper shown me as I hit him in the knees. Looping my arm around his ankles and fliping him face first into the ground with a resounding thunk. "Very good!" Shouted Jasper clapping his hands as he smirked "Now come at me." I looked over at Emmet who had rolled over and grinned "Okay." I said flushed with confidence as I raced towards him and did the same thing except for him not falling he fliped me and nailed me to the ground. "Good but be quicker." I laughed and locked my leggs around his waist and fliped him over and I felt a rush that I couldn't explain.

It was so powerful, Jasper laughed "Fallow it, Feel it." He encoraged as I tried to back away from it but I trusted him...


I laid on the ground beside Jasper letting out puffs of unneeded breaths "Shit, I haven't seen anything like that." Emmet grinned "It was like Mario bros Mele!" He said I looked over at him and laughed "You need to stop playing video games Emmet, They are rotting your brain." I said rising and wincing as my sugar high or whatever it is called rushed out of me like a wave. I got up by Jasper who was holding his arm "What's wrong?" I asked frowning as he pulled his arm away to reveal a bite wound that was leaking Venom. "Who did that?"I asked since Emmet got in on the fight but I didn't think it was Emmet who bit Jasper. He had no need too, "You did." I frowned as I tried to remember what I had just done.

"Don't try, It was all insticnt." Jasper comforted as Alice praticly flew out of the house "Jaida! You bit him!" That caused everyone else to get out of the house. I groaned and nodded rubbing my jaw that was sore but I had all of my teeth "Jasper." Esme asked concered as she touched my arm "I am fine, Esme." he said as Carlisle looked at his arm and then to me "Well it did work but she looks drained." I snorted as He helped me into his office and laid me down. "Here." I paused and looked down, it was plain good old water.


Paul POV

I was under the hood as Sam was talking about Emily's sickness and bloating complaints "- She's really mean right now, I mean is it just her or is all women so mean when they are expecting a baby?" I snorted underneat the Jag. "The last time I checked, I don't have that equipment to tell you." I said Sam scoffed "I know that." and left it alone. For a couple of minutes I was able to work in peace but soon Sam had started talking again this time about a very sore topic "So why is your imprint going all the way to Elwha to do Florist stuff?" I rolled from under the Jaguar and narrowed my eyes on Sam that was working on a old 1994 Ford. "She wants too." I answered as Sam's eyes where held on my torso "Dude, eyes up here." I snapped "Do you know that your mark is paler than the rest of your body?"Sam asked.

Something unpleasent wanted to break free from my mind but I held it tight to its spot "Its called a scar." I said yanking my shirt back down before grabbing a wrench. "Right, I just find it funny that since Bella's been around she's been gone to a new job." I rolled my eyes "This car is enough to prove she's been going where she's going." I snapped "Sam, Deal with your own problems and leave mine out of it." Sam gave me a stern look "Fine but if she is doing something against the pack rules then she will have to face them." I looked at him as I wondered how much Sam knew of mine and Jaiden's relationship.

By any good guess, He knew a lot "She's my imprint, If you hurt her, You'll hurt me." I stated darkly, Sam's dark eye widened "I would never hurt her but just keep her away from the Cullens." I frowned "I don't think she would like that to much." I said Sam shrugged "And we won't know if she fallows pack rules." I rolled back under the Jag. to hide my facial expression from him. I wished I could keep her away from them but to keep her away ment hurting her and I wasn't ready to hurt her.


I climbed into Jared's truck after giving Edward a hug "Do you want me to take you to your house?"He asked as I nodded He grined and took off leaving Edward watching us "Does he alway look so surly?"He asked I snorted "Its a new thing, Before he was actually pretty cool but now its all about Bella." I said He raised an eyebrow "Not like it is a problem or anything"I said quickly. "You look a bit roughed up." I laughed "Emmet and I got into it on Mario on the WII" I explained streaching a bit trying to loosen my sore and tired limbs.

Jared shook his head "Wow." Kim's face was in a frown and I looked at her with a small raised eyebrow look, She seemed to wave me off with her eyes. Once we got to my house I went to work getting ready for tonight, I yanked over a shirt and lifted my wet hair as Kim walked into the bedroom that Paul and I shared "Are they always so beautiful?" She asked softly I paused and turned to look at her. "Yes." I replied "Its the allure their venom gives them." Kim shivered and sat down on my bed her hands clasp tightly in her lap. "They are so human looking...I..." She paused I waited for her to gather her thoughts "I thought they would look warped or have the feel of evil but they look like beautiful humans." She said finaly.

I nodded "The pack kills...Humans or what was once a human."She said I sighed and knelt in front of her resting my hand on her tightly clasp one's "They kill vampires who want to hurt you and me, Those vampires have red eyes and are more animal than human anymore. The Cullens and a few others fallow a strickt diet of animal blood." I licked my lips a bit "Which gives them the warm golden eyes." I explained as she frowned more "But does that make the pack murders?" I didn't know how to answer that. A part of me wanted to scream yes from the top of a roof but the other part that was a part of Paul wanted to feircly say no. I settled with the happy in between "No, They are doing what they think is right." I said as I stood and went to get my hair and makeup done.

"Do you think it's right?" I wanted to claim that I didn't hear her but I knew I couldn't get away with that. "Personaly Kim, I am torn between my family and my imprint. I cou'dn't tell you because it would probably a half truth." Kim nodded and stood placing a vail of a smile on her face "Can I help you with your hair?"She asked I nodded alowing her to work on my hair.


Once Paul pulled up we got out of the house to go down to the beach for the tribal gathering, I just felt a little sad going since Harry wouldn't be there and the only tribal leaders would be Sue, Billy, and old Quill. I leaned over the seat and gave Paul a kiss before he grabbed my arm and stared at a blueish bruise like it would tell him how it ended up on my body. I noticed and smiled "Mario." I told him as I pulled my arm away, at least the blood managed to take care of most of the bruising. This one had covered most of my upper arm.

"Mario?" Paul asked I nodded "Mario Cart on the Wii. I kicked Emmets but and derring my darling victory dance I almost landed on the glass table but Emmet grabbed me but it must had left a mark you know how I am." I told him passively. Paul nodded something was on his mind but I felt as if i didn't want to know. Soon we hit the beach and I smiled "It won't be the same." I told Paul who paused his hand on the door handle and his eyes pressing into mine, I felt the familiar tingle in my stomach "I feel the same way Jaiden." He told me before getting out. I let out a unsteady breath as I opened my own door and got out taking Pauls hand before being led to the bonfire that was still unlit.

I almost expected Harry to be sitting beside the grill eyeing the meat that Sam was trying to perfect but he wasn't only Sam was standing their. He looked up feeling my eyes on mine and he waved "A little hungry Jaiden?" He asked joking of course but I still felt a bit panicked. Paul picked up on it as if he had caught a bone "Of course!" I shouted back "Don't mess it up!" Sam nodded and smiled going back to his cooking as his mate caught my eye and before mine could ask me. I ran up to her and pulled her into a hug "Emily, How are you?" I asked knowing that it meant more then how she was doing.

Emily spun around and the suddenly I didn't want to know as I heard everything from her puking to her dry problem down their from the hormones that the baby was causing. "Lupa!" I was whisked into the air and hugged tightly by a strong armed Embry. "You looked in need of a strong hero." Embry said as he placed me down near the bonfire as he knelt down to start to get it to light. "I never want kids now." I said Embry looked up and raised a eyebrow, he knew I was lying but still everything that Emily told me was horrible. I shook my head as I thought that I must be a masochist, Leah walked up to me a bit ticked off "He brought her." She hissed as my nose was pulled to the sent of strawberry's and cream. "She's my sister." I told Leah as she huffed "You are better than her." Leah snapped I saw Bella walking with Jacob holding her into his side "How so?" I asked before I really gave much thought to my words "Easy, You have a fucking back bone." I shot her a look.

"Language." Emily tutted as she passed by making Leah's eye twitch "Bella." I proclaimed acting as if I just realized my sister was here. I pulled her into a hug and winked at Jacob who was a bit pink cheeked "I shouldn't be here." Bella told me. I watched as Jacob rolled his eyes from behind Bella and placed his two large hands on Bella's shoulders "You are welcomed here, isn't that right?"He asked his dark eyes looking at me as if to say 'Lie if you must. Bella must here our old stories'. "Yes it is." I said smiling "Are you hungry?"I asked as Sam walked up "Lupa, since you decided to perfect my grilling skills like Harry did you get to have the first bite." He said his voice sounding like a growl.

Seth pouted 'But!" He exclaimed but changed his direction once he seen who I was standing by "Bella!" he cried pulling her into a hug. I smiled as I walked over to take my plate of food since I knew all of the guys were biting at the bullet to eat especially the ones who had to work and cook this food. Paul handed me a plate and smirked "Aren't you lucky."He growled playfully nipping at my neck and I giggled. "Hey quit slowing her down I'm starving!" Jared barked out grinning as Paul glared and jumped his brother I briefly watched the fight but I instead filled up my plate Emily raising an eyebrow at the amount of food I had before I walked over and took a seat next to Kim who was going to town on a Twix bar instead of the barbecue.

"These things always make me nervous." She told me "Its worse with Bella here." I nodded "At least she will here about why we covet our hate so much." Sue said as she embraced both Kim and I "You look so alive, Jaiden." She told me touching my cheek "I am the standing Elder now. I hope I do well." She told us as she sat in one of the fold out chairs "You will do great Ms. Clearwater." Kim said as she finally finished her bar "I don't think its healthy." I said as Kim pouted "It was the only one that Jared would let me have. He watches too many shows on how things are made. I have got to cancel my subcribtion to that health show." Kim whined not understanding that I meant the way the tribe covets hate over the Vampires.

Not that I wanted them to drop everything and frolic through the woods with them but sometimes too much hate will cause problems within. Billy rolled up with the help of Sam before waiting on everyone to take their seats Paul sat next to me and pulled me tight against him. I relaxed as I took in the sent of pine and dog with a hint of motor oil from working on the cars all day. "I am glad that everyone is here. We have two new wolves in our pack and one other to hear our stories. Bella you are the first outsider to hear our history and know the truth with it." Billy said his voice was the only sound except Seth's nervous shifting. Even though Seth and Leah had a father for a tribal elder Harry still wanted to be vague about the legends.

I watched my sister nod her face held uncertainty as she looked around the group, I looked away from those doe eyes and focused on Billy who started to tell the story of the third wife. It was a sad tale about the love and the power of a imprint, I knew above all else that I would do that for my mate and all the other Imprints would do the same. "This is what is left from that day all those years ago." Billy produced a small bag and I could smell the sweet smell of burned Vampire. I swallowed and I unfortunately wondered what I would smell like since I was neither Vampire nor completely human.
