A/N: Here is the major plot twist we've all been waiting for! -a-potato-forever

Charlie said to Bella and Hermione, "I need to go now. There has been bear sightings around town." He looked at them thoughtfully, "Maybe you girls could take Luna down to La Push this afternoon. Billy told me that there would be a small bonfire tonight, but I can't go." He pointed to his police chief badge. "Busy." Charlie walked out of the house and into his cruiser.
Bella turned to Hermione. "That's a good idea."
"What about your fight with Jake?" Hermione questioned, "Would it be awkward?"
Bella shook her head. "Luna needs to go. She still hasn't seen La Push's first beach, yet Forks is a small city."

Later that afternoon, the three of them arrived at the reservation by Bella's red truck. Bella left saying, "I'm going to see if I could talk to Jacob."
That left Hermione and Luna walking in the woods in a comfortable silence. Without notice, three large animals came rushing at them. One of them had black fur, dark brown fur, and the third had gray fur with black spots. Hermione and Luna clutched their wands, which were hidden in their pockets as a precaution.
Luna quickly read their expressions. They were too intelligent to be humans. On the other hand, Hermione already knew that this place lurked of people descended from wolves. Hermione tried to say as calmly as possible, "Sam and company, we know that its you. Please change back to your human form. We'll wait for you to put you clothes back on."
The wolves looked shocked when Hermione and Luna turned around and waited. A few seconds later, the three people, Sam, Jared, and Embry, were clothed and looked at the two girls almost angrily. "Did Bella tell you?" Sam demanded.
Luna stated, "We found out on our own. All of you looked too perceptive to be humans. What wolves would suddenly stop in front of humans?"
The boys didn't by it. Hermione cleared her throat, "Look. I figured it out when I came to La Push for the first time. I already knew that the Cullens were vampires because of pale skin, not eating thing, and what not, when the first day I went to Forks High School. When I came to first beach with the other kids, Sam had said, 'the Cullens don't come here' so I pieced it all together."
Jared narrowed his eyes, 'But that doesn't explain how you knew the Cullens were vampires. If you were like the other humans, you would think that they slept in coffins and had blood red eyes. And how vampires and werewolves are enemies."
"You guys are werewolves. If you were, they you would be dead tired right now since tomorrow night is full moon, and you wouldn't be able to shift at any time of day." Hermione asserted.
Luna clarified, "You guys are a tribe of shape-shifters that take the form of a wolf."
They nodded, "I guess that is true." Sam said. "But like Jared said, how do you know all of this?"
Luna and Hermione exchanged nervous glances. Luna replied for both of them. "We might tell you, but we'll have to discuss it ourselves."
The Quileutes left. "Are we going to tell them?" Hermione whispered.
"I think it's a good idea. We know their secret, so we should let them in on ours." Luna reasoned. "It doesn't break the statue of secrecy, since their aren't actually muggles, and they wouldn't be able to pass along the information because of the Fidelius charm."
"Okee-dokee."
Luna looked at her questionably. Hermione laughed, "One of the American terms I've learned."

The only people at the bonfire were the wolves and tribal elders, Bella, Hermione, and Luna. Everybody has eaten, and the legends of the Quileutes were told. Jacob was sitting gloomily and not looking up, since he was trying to avoid Bella's eye.
Sam asked, "Hermione, Luna, are you going to tell us how you knew that we were werewolves—er—shape-shifters?"
Luna took a breath before explaining. "We are witches."
Seth interrupted, "You mean you own black cats, ride on brooms, and throw humans into cauldrons? Or are you like the Wicked Witch of the West, but not with green skin?"
The other Quileutes shushed him because they wanted to listen. Hermione snorted, and Luna burst into giggles. "Those are stereotypes. But we do ride on broomsticks," Luna glanced at Hermione, "But both of us don't. They are more of a sport than a transportation method to us. There are better ones, such as—" Luna apparated to the other side of the bonfire.
Everybody gasped when she appeared at the other side. Jacob heard what happened but still didn't look up. Seth shouted, "Cool! You can teleport!"
"It's called apparating." Hermione corrected gently. She stood up. "Any willing victims?"
Paul raised his hand eagerly, "Me! I want to see what you two punks can do."
Hermione looked at Luna, as if asking who should do it. Luna said, "You. You're the brightest-witch-of-your-age, after all."
Hermione tried to be humble. "But we aren't in the same year! You're a Ravenclaw! And I skipped seventh year." She reminded Luna.
Luna dismissed that. "I skipped seventh year too, and you are older. Go on."
Hermione grinned evilly at Paul. She took out her wand and addressed to the crowd. "This is a wand. I can preform magic. Both Luna and I attended school for many years to learn spells. I'm going to do some spells on Paul, but all of them will be harmless."
Paul still looked fearless. "Levicorpus." Hermione liked having fun with this spell.
Paul yelled and flailed, "Hey! Put me down! Now!" Jacob looked up to find Paul dangling as if he had an invisible rope attached to one of his legs. Everybody laughed until their stomachs hurt.
Hermione used another one that worked effectively on James. "Slugulus eructo." She spoke clearly.
Paul starting burping slugs, which fell to the ground. A couple people shouted, "Eww!" but others kept on laughing.
Hermione put a cushioning spell on the ground before letting Paul drop. He quickly scampered to his feet. "Those slugs!" He whimpered as he ran a few feet away.
People roared in laughter again. Hermione took pity on them and waved her wand at the slugs he choked up, "Evanesco."
Luna hollered, "They are all gone. You can come back now."
Paul shuddered as he sat down at a place farthest away from Hermione, "Are there any spells that aren't offensive?"
Luna and Hermione laughed, Luna took out her wand, and shouted, "Expecto Patronum!"
A beautiful white hare burst out from her wand. Luna guided it as the hare ran circles around the bonfire.
Jacob was very intrigued and astounded by the Patronus. He glanced at Luna, who was still guiding the hare. "She's so beautiful." Jacob thought, and continued to watch her lovingly. Other side of his brain reacted. "Bella is your girlfriend! I can't think about Luna this way!" Jacob stared at the ground in horror, "Have I just imprinted on Luna?"

I'm currently torn on constantly updating this fanfiction or starting new projects. I currently have three other fanfiction ideas that I am interested in looking into. However, I won't abandon this one because I love it so much. -a-potato-forever

To pclauink: Mhm. Ron is guilty and is the git. You must be American, right? I might have got it wrong. You said "idiot". I'm American as well. But Ron and Lavender aren't the problem in the story at this moment. And I'm really, really sorry to disappoint you about Jacob imprinting on Luna. :( -a-potato-forever
