Kagome wandered around La Push for a while, she couldn't help but admire the beauty of the reservation as she walked. An hour passed then two, Kagome was beginning to get frustrated she tried searching for that Jacob's demonic aura but there were too many of them around and he wasn't at school long enough for her to get to know it well enough to recognise it. Kagome went back to Emmett's Jeep and sat on the hood, she had to think of a better plan than just wandering around aimlessly.
"Hi there." A woman's voice was heard.
Kagome jumped at the sound of the voice from behind her, she cursed herself for not being more alert. She turned around and there stood a beautiful Native American woman with long black hair. The right side of her face was scarred from hairline to chin by three thick, red lines, vivid in color though they were long healed. Kagome automatically knew that a wolf had done that, see that the damage wolf claws could do up close.
"Hello," Kagome says with a bright smile.
"You look lost, anything I can do to help?" The young woman asks.
"Is it that obvious?" Kagome asks.
"Only a lot."
Kagome sighs, "I lost my cousin, she took off with some guy and I've been wandering around for hours trying to find her."
The young woman laughs, "This place is pretty big, I'm not surprised you didn't have any luck in finding her. "I'm Emily by the way."
"I'm Kagome."
"That's a pretty name."
"Thank you."
"Come on, why don't you come back to my house, I have some friends that can help you look for her."
Kagome hesitates, she flares her spiritual powers and sees that Emily is only a human, but a very good person with a big heart. She smiles and nods.
"Okay, thank you for your help."
"No problem."
Kagome walks with Emily towards her house which turns out not be too far. Walking into the house, Kagome can smell muffins cooling on the stove, her mouth waters at the smell.
"You must be hungry, wandering around out there for so long, here have a muffin, there chocolate chip."
"Thank you so much."
"You're welcome."
Kagome took a bite of the muffin and hummed, "This is the best tasting muffin I have ever had."
"Thank you, so Kagome where are you from?"
"I live in Forks, but I'm originally from Japan."
"Wow and what brought you to Forks?"
"I needed a change, so I came to live with my Uncle and cousin."
Emily and Kagome talk for a some time, while they wait for Sam and the others to arrive, Emily explains that their waiting for her fiancé to show up so he and his friends can help them search for Kagome's cousin.
"So what does your cousin look like?"
"She's about 5' 4" with brown hair and chocolate brown eyes, her name is Bella." Kagome tells Emily.
"Bella, as in Bella Swan, she's your cousin?" Emily asks
"Yeah, you know her?"
"Yeah she was here a few hours ago with Jacob."
"That's the guy she ran off with!" Kagome says in an worried tone.
Emily laughs, "Relax, she's in good hands, Bella and Jacob have been friends for a while now. Here I'll take you down to the Black house so you can see for yourself that she's fine, I'm sure they're there right now."
"Okay thank you, Emily."
Kagome and Emily step out of the house, but Kagome stiffens when see senses the demonic aura of the shapeshifters. They suddenly some boys in shorts with no shirts and tattoos come out of the woods.
"Emily go back in the house, there's a blood sucker in the area." Sam orders.
"Who's that?" Paul asks.
"This is Kagome, she's Bella's cousin, That's Paul and my fiancé Sam."
Kagome's eyes narrow at the sound of Paul's name. Paul scents the air, then growls at Kagome.
"You're another leech lover, the scent of that big vampire is all over you."
"So you're the Paul that attacked my boyfriend."
"Boyfriend?! A pretty thing like you is going out with that blood sucker."
"Watch what you say about my Emmett, Mongrel." Kagome says in a deadly voice.
Without warning, Paul burst from his skin and charges Kagome, Sam yells for him to stop but he doesn't. Kagome smirks and pulls out the beads of subjugation from her pocket. She quickly says a prayer and the beads fly off and wrap around Paul's neck.
"Freeze." Kagome casually says.
Paul freezes mid stride, Paul starts to panic when he realizes he can't move a single muscle and begins to whimper. The other wolves show up at hearing Paul's frantic calls. By this time Kagome has already pulled out her bow, thrown up a barrier around her and Emily and has an arrow of purification knocked in her bow.
"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO HIM!" Sam roars.
"What's it look like I've done to him, I've frozen him." Kagome tells him.
"What the hell are you?" Jared asks.
"None of your business." Kagome answers.
"Look just step away from Emily and we won't harm you." Sam says in a deadly voice.
"Try it, and see if I don't turn you to ash." Kagome counters.
The tension between the wolves and the Priestess is so thick you could cut it with a knife, until Emily puts a hand on Kagome's shoulder.
Kagome, I know you're only trying to protect me, but trust me they won't hurt us, they're actually the good guys, they protect humans from vampires.
"So do I." Kagome says.
"If you protect against vampires how can you be dating a leech?" Leah asks.
Kagome points her bow at Leah, "The Cullens aren't evil, just like you demons aren't evil."
"We are not demons." Sam points out.
"Of course you are, otherwise that trick I did on Paul wouldn't have worked and you all wouldn't be so terrified to come any closer to me." Kagome says with a smirk, "I am a Priestess, it is my job to fight evil spirits, demons, and ghosts. And you wolves are just diluted versions of wolf demons."
The wolves all look at each other, could it be true? They really had no idea how they came by the ability to shapeshift, after all the legends only explained so much.
"Alright if what you say is true then we can trust you and you'll take down whatever that thing is that's surrounding you and Emily."
Kagome puts down her bow and shrinks it again putting it back on her bracelet. But before she takes her barrier down she turns to Emily.
"Thank you for all you hospitality and your help, I hope I didn't give you a bad impression."
"No not at all, Kagome, I know you're a good person, I can feel it in this barrier. It radiates purity. Now if you want to get to Jacob's house just follow that path it's the red house at the end."
"Thank you again, Emily and for your help I'd like to give you something."
Kagome brings forth her healing powers into her hands and touches Emily's face, Emily gasps and Sam lunges for the girls, but the minute he touches the barrier his fingers are singed. When Kagome brings down the barrier Sams sees that Emily is holding her face, Sam rushes to Emily.
"What did she do to you?" Sam asks in a frantic tone.
Emily removes her hand and shows him that the scars on her face are gone, he gasps.
"She healed me." Emily whispers.
Sam gasps, he can't believe that the worst day of his life has been erased of existance. He kisses Emily then turns to Kagome.
"Thank you so much, if ever you need our help the pack is with you."
Everyone's eyes widen at Sam's declaration, that is the last thing they ever expected Sam to say, but since he was the Alpha they would listen to him.
"Thank you, Sam, I appreciate that, and honestly I think you should reconsider towards the Cullens, I know evil, and they are the farthest thing from evil, just like you are."
Sam nods his head, Kagome had given him a lot to think about, he did wonder what she meant but she knew evil. He would think about it later for now he just wanted to be with Emily.
"What about Paul?"
She walks by and says the word unfreeze and Paul unfreezes and falls to the ground.
Kagome walks down toward the Black house, following Jacob's Demonic Aura. She followed it toward the garage where she sees Bella come walking out looking very upset, she stops short when she sees Kagome.
"Bella come, please I'm sorry." Jacob says as he comes out of the garage, "Who are you?"
Bella turns towards Jacob, "Jacob this is my cousin Kagome, Kagome this is Jacob Black."
"I know who he is, Bella, and I know that he's upset you in some way, Bella. I think it's time we left."
Bella doesn't even question what Kagome knows, she's hurt by what Jacob had said earlier, she nods and follows after Kagome.
"Bella, come on don't leave."
"No I think I've overstayed my welcome." Bella says.
Bella and Kagome walk towards Emmett's Jeep with Jacob still following behind. Kagome is starting to get annoyed she whirls around to confront Jake.
"Look, don't you get it, she doesn't want to see you anymore and she wants to go home, so get it through your thick head."
"Who are you to talk to me that way?" Jacob says in an arrogant tone.
"I'm the person that's going to kick your ass if you don't get away!" Kagome yells.
She charges her hand with some weak spiritual powers and shoves Jacob to the ground. Jacob sits there stunned that a little thing like her could shove him, he gets up angry and is about to tell Kagome something but Sam appears.
"Jacob! Leave Kagome alone."
"What, why?"
"I'll tell you later, now come on it's time for patrol."
The girls get to Emmett's Jeep and get in, Bella looks at Kagome.
"Uh, why do you have Emmett's Jeep?"
"I kind of stole it from him."
Bella stares at Kagome and then starts laughing.
"Shut up." Kagome tells her.
