Transitionals: Eclipse

Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight or any of the other books in the Saga, they belong to Stephenie Meyer. I do use some phrases, dialogue, and some descriptions from the book, though, they all belong to her.

Alright everyone, it is time to get back to the plot line for Eclipse. I hope you all enjoyed the information and things happening with the Rebellion. Don't worry though, we're not done with any of that. This chapter though is going to be a little closer to the actual book plot, but with the Transitional series info thrown in. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I liked writing it.

This chapter is dedicated to my awesome family.

Chapter 13

Edward was being exceptionally annoying today.

It wasn't like what I was asking was unreasonable. I wanted to see one of Jasper's training sessions with the wolves. They had already had a few trainings already, both groups could work with each other quite easily. There wasn't any risk going to go watch them, not even Paul was likely to snap anymore. Not after all the other times we had worked with them. Edward was just being ridiculous.

"I don't get why you're arguing so much about this?" I snapped at him. I had just come from my closet, having changed into warmer clothes that would be comfortable for the run to the field.

Edward got up from my desk chair. "Bella, this isn't a good idea, we should stay here, where it's safe."

I rolled my eyes. "What is this?" I gestured between us.

Edward's eyes scrunched up with confusion.

I pointed to him then back to me. "What is this between us?" I asked slowly. "You're not treating me like your mate, so what is this relationship?"

I waited for him to finally understand. He didn't disappoint.

He sighed and his head bowed. "I'm worried about your transition?"

I crossed my arms and waited for him to continue.

"Your strength could show up any day now. Showing up during a fight could be dangerous."

I shook my head. "Quit making up excuses. I can't fight right now anyway, I wouldn't be able to focus enough to control my strength."

"Then why do you need to go then," Edward countered.

The words sprang from my mouth with exasperation. "To support everyone else. They're dealing with this because of me."

"Let's not start this again." Edward placed his hands on my shoulder. "I think it's time we agree that you can't blame yourself over any of this. No more."

I glanced smugly at him. "Fine, but only if you take me to the practice?"

Edward threw his hands up, shaking his head. "I can't comprehend…"

I sighed and stopped listening to him. I couldn't figure out what his problem was. No one else thought it would be a big deal if I watched the practices.

Edward though… He had been upset for the past few days now. To think of it, he had been in a bad mood since we discussed with Carlisle what to do about the first ten Ley lines. We had been giving. What was that about?

He knew we had to protect them. Though, it wasn't like the Undermining would come after that information for a while. They had hundreds of other lines that they had to go through to finally go after the first ten in the "rubber band" as Rohl considered it. Now if we knew where the last Ley line was, the newest of the group, we would need to protect that one. But we didn't. So he couldn't be upset about that.

Could he possibly be upset that he, Carlisle, Emmett, and Jasper were going to go off with Kian and Turner to try to find Marlowe?

The pieces clicked together instantly.

"You're afraid that something is going to happen while you're gone."

He didn't answer, but the way his shoulder slouched I knew I was right.

I wrapped my arms around his waist. "Everything is going to be fine. I'll be fine out there, and you aren't leaving until this evening. We'll be back at home before they go."

He still didn't say anything. "I could ask Jake and a few of the wolves if they'll come and hang out with us while you all are gone."

I was starting to get worried with his lack of responses. "Yeah, that might work; if it wasn't for the smell."

He let me push him and I attempted to give him a stern glare. It was more annoyance than any type of reprimand.

I stood on my tiptoes and gave him a brief kiss. "We're going to be late?"

He smirked then, a challenge in his eyes. "No we won't."

Edward lifted me into his arms and took off out of the room and then the house. He spared a second to lock up my house before taking off into the tree line behind it.

He ran faster than I was used to him running with me. He was really trying to prove me wrong, and I couldn't help but smile.

We were the last one to the field, but according to my watch we still had three minutes till five.

"Hey vampire girl," Leah called. She was sitting beside Rose and Esme.

Edward set me down, and while he went to join his brothers, I went to sit with Leah.

"Hey wolf girl."

Rose made room so that I could sit beside Leah. "Sit here so I can use your scent to block hers."

Leah shoved her or attempted to. "At least she doesn't stink as bad as you do, she still smells too sweet though."

I a seat, shaking my head. I'd let them continue their teasing, it was better than them really hating each other.

I glanced around and was surprised to find that Anna and Cissy weren't here. Esme and Rose were both here, I wasn't watching the girls, so who was?

Esme reached passed Leah and patted my knee. "Anna and Cissy are with Anna's new friend, Claire. They're with Emily."

New friend? When had this happened? Surely I hadn't been spending so much time working on everything for the Rebellion that I had missed the fact Anna had made a friend.

Leah shook her head a low grumble coming from her lips. I missed whatever she had muttered though.

Rose rested a hand on her shoulder.

What was I missing?"

"Quil, imprinted on my cousin Claire, Emily's niece. Emily was watching her when he came by and you understand the rest."

From Leah's tone, I knew she wasn't happy about it, but imprinting should have been a happy occasion.

Rose answered my question before I could really ask it. "He imprinted on a three-year-old."

My first thought was to remind myself that Quil and Anna had been around each other after he transformed, so he obviously didn't imprint on Anna. Then I was able to really focus on what they thought was a problem.

"It's not abnormal for something like this to happen."

Leah stopped me. "Bella, don't you dare tell me that imprinting on a little baby, a toddler is normal. It is wrong, on so many levels."

Rose nodded her agreement. "Wrong doesn't even cover it?"

I got up, shaking my head. "It's not like there is anything romantic about it, yet." They wouldn't listen to me, and I knew it.

"Hey Bella," Seth called.

I smiled and went over to him. He was the only other wolf from his sister that wasn't transformed. "Taking in all of Jasper's instructions as a human?"

Seth laughed. "I guess you could say that."

We sat and watched as Jasper worked with one wolf after another, teaching them all he could about newborn vampires and how to fight them.

I absorbed as much as I could. Jasper was having Emmett pretend to be the newborn since he fought the most like them. Relying on his strength and using the more predictable attacks.

"Don't let them get their arms around you," Jasper growled in exasperation as Emmett wrapped his arms around the wolf.

I still wasn't actually sure if I had all the wolves figured out, but I thought he was working with Embry.

"If a newborn gets his arms around you he will crush you. Let's go again." Jasper instructed.

Emmett released the wolf and they got into position to start again.

After a while Jasper had everyone pick partners to start practicing.

My gaze sought out Edward. He and Emmett were wrestling, the two of them seemed to enjoy their fight more than they probably should.

"How's your transition doing?"

I spared Seth a glance. "It's getting pretty close to the end." I had been struggling to get my transition to go back to its slow crawl. Only shifting at the pace it had before I moved to Forks. That wasn't working though. I could go weeks without the percentage going up, back in Phoenix. Now I was lucky if I could go a few days without it raising point zero one percent."

"Where you at?" Seth continued shyly.

I could tell that he didn't want to upset me. He, of course, was curious since his sister had gone through her own transition.

I wrapped my arms around my knees, and smiled, hoping to ease his worry. "Eighty-eight point zero-one percent. It's been raising for the most part slowly, but steadily."

He turned thoughtful. "What can we do to help?"

I ruffled his hair then. "Just keep making me smile. The happier and the more relaxed I can be the better."

He moved away so I couldn't reach him. A small smile remained on his lips though. "So fun things? Okay, I'll get to work on that."

He left then, moving with a purpose.

"I didn't think the kid would ever leave," Jake laughed as he sat down; taking Seth's abandoned spot.

I shook my head at him. "How are you, Jake?"

He shrugged. "Busy, actually. With all the patrols and these trainings, and school of course."

"Of course."

Jake nudged my shoulder. "So, I heard that you want me to come hang out at a vampire house, stink and all."

"We don't stink." I tried to shove him, but I couldn't budge him.

He only laughed. "Yes you do, but I don't mind."

We sat together talking about random things until Jasper called the training session to its end. He and the other Cullen men were needing to leave so that they could meet up with Kian and Turner.

Despite the fact I knew they were only going to be gone for the weekend, I was already dreading the separation.

I had spent many nights at the Cullens' house. I had gone to a few sleepovers with Alice and Rose. This weekend-long sleepover was not like anything I had expected.

Esme had invited Emily and Leah over. Emily even had Claire with her, since she was watching her for the weekend.

Seeing Anna with another little girl was worth it. Every day was exciting to watch. They played together, getting along easily and usually fell asleep to a princess movie.

Cissy hadn't been too happy, since every time she started talking we would have to remind her to babble.

Claire wasn't a part of the La Push tribe and she was far too young to be trusted with any secrets anyway.

Anna struggled every once in a while with her own speech, but she was quick to catch herself from speaking to eloquently for a toddler.

The girls were watching the little mermaid, curled up in sleeping bags, side by side.

I smiled and got up, taking the leftover popcorn back to the kitchen. No one was going to finish it, Anna and Claire definitely didn't need anymore.

As I put the leftover popcorn in a bag, I relaxed my mind. I closed my eyes and set the full bag down on the counter.

"Keep trying Gi, we all believe that you can figure this out."

Why was Esme talking with my second mother? Edward had to have told them about her, but how did she even get Gi's number? Did Charlie give it to her? Why would he? It didn't make sense for Esme to have Gi's number.

No one, not even Charlie was supposed to contact Gi, not while she was at work. It took me only a moment to calculate whether or not she would still be there. Given her hectic schedule, she was working a few hours during the weekend, mostly nights. She was probably halfway through her shift.

"We'll keep an eye on her, you have my word."

I focused my hearing, only just noticing how easy it was for me to hear Esme on the other side of the wall.

"Gi, no one knew that it was going to take longer than a year to figure out that the rings were suppressing powers. We've trusted you all this time, don't stress yourself out now."

My mouth fell open and I felt an angry flush overcome me. They had known for over a year that something was causing my ring to suppress my powers. Why had I only learned after the incident in Volterra? Would they have told me, if my ring had completely stopped working?

My blood felt like it was boiling under my skin.

I left the kitchen going out the back door. The cool air would help, even if only minimally.

I took my phone from my pocket and dialed Edward.

"He's not going to be able to answer."

I didn't jump, others may argue, but I firmly believe I didn't jump. I merely glared and waited as the phone rang.

She was right, he didn't answer.

"You are in trouble," I said ever word slowly, letting him hear the furious emphasis with each word. "Enormous trouble. Angry grizzly bears are going to look tame next to what is waiting for you at home."

I snapped the phone shut and spared Alice a glance. "I need to run off this agitation so it doesn't hurt my transition."

She nodded before picking me up and taking off into the trees. She jumped the river and sat me down.

The run helped and I knew it, but I was still angry. Why wouldn't they tell me?

I dropped into bed, knowing that the next morning I would meet Edward at the airport, and I'd get my answers.

Author's Note

I would just like to take this moment to say that these characters really like throwing me off of my plans. This entire chapter was supposed to be Jasper teacher the wolves and them working together as a group. Then I remembered I had mentioned that they had been at other trainings, so this session naturally became a review rather than an actual lesson. I hoped you guys liked it anyway.

Secondly, I had a fan request a while back, and I have been waiting for this exact moment to answer their request. So with that said. Bella's hearing is getting better, and as requested by Tmitidlover0412, Bella just overheard something the others did not want her to hear. I hope the situation and Bella's reaction was like what you were picturing.

Who caught the line from Eclipse?

What do you think Edward's reaction is going to be towards Bella's threat? Do you think he's going to be anything but confused?

PS

As always, if you catch any mistakes that I might have missed, please let me know.

Watch out for Carlos,
