Chapter Six

The sound of two angry, unsatisfied infants echoed throughout the house. They could not be consoled, not at all. Various members of the family tried to pace the infants, hold them, jiggle them, and tried to feed them. They tried everything they had tried with Nessie, first the baby formula, then animal blood, and finally human blood. Both babies were red face, their tiny fist clenched angrily as they shrilly screamed.

"This is nothing like Nessie," Emmett grumbled as he paced Masen over his shoulder, the tiny fists beating into his shoulder. He was stronger than a day old baby, larger too. He was bigger than Sarabella, by nearly an inch already. His hair was a spiky fluff of black curls.

"You were an angel compared to even normal babies," Rosalie said as she patted Sarabella's back. Jacob was exhausted looking, as was Nessie. Their distressed was mirrored in Seth's distress. The babies were rigid, angry.

"Let me take her a bit," Seth said as he reached for the tiny red faced baby. Rosalie was eager to hand her off. He turned to Jacob and looked at him, pleadingly.

"Go ahead, take her for a walk," Jacob said tiredly. Seth nodded, knotting the fabric around his body. Despite the sound of the baby's screaming, Jacob laughed. "Kid, you look like one of those new aged crunchy moms."

"Thanks man," Seth grinned as he slipped Sarabella in the sling. He reached for Masen and snuggled the boy in the sling next to Sarabella. The two continued to scream and Seth waved good bye.

"Keep them safe," Nessie told him needlessly. He nodded and headed across the yard as fast as his legs would take him. The babies continued to cry, though their cries were less angry and hungrier sounding, at least to Seth.

"Are you hungry, Sarabella?" he asked as he touched her cheek. She turned her head towards his finger and an idea crossed his mind. He reached into his pocket and called his mom.

"Seth? Is that crying I hear?" Sue asked.

"Yeah, Mom, it is," Seth said. "Nessie had her babies, a boy and girl." An owl hooted indignantly as Seth strolled past it's perch.

"You sound like you are in the woods, is everything ok?" Sue asked. "Is Nessie ok?"

"She's fine, up at the Cullen's house," Seth said. "They're having a hard time finding what the babies want to eat. Nothing of the usual fare seems to appease them. What do babies eat?"

"Milk," Sue said. "Usually breast milk or formula."

"And if that doesn't work? Remember these aren't human babies," Seth said quickly as he stopped just on the edge of town. He rocked them back and forth.

"Well, what did Nessie crave when she was pregnant?" Sue asked.

"The most god awful stuff, mom. Fruits and veggies and tofu and crap," Seth said making a face. Sue laughed.

"Are you near town?"

"Near Charlie's place," Seth said without looking up.

"I'll be right there, I think I have an idea," Sue said as she hung up. Seth headed up into Charlie's house, knowing he was away fishing with Billy this weekend. The babies still continued to scream and cry. Seth sighed when he heard his mother's car pull into the driveway and the woman came in carrying a plastic grocery bag.

"What is it?" Seth asked as he followed her into the kitchen.

"You'll see," Sue said as she pulled out two glass bottles from the bag and a can like the one Carlisle had.

"Carlisle already tried formula," Seth warned. Sue smiled at him as she made two bottles. She pointed at him to sit down, which he complied. He took the babies out of the sling. The boy screamed at Seth.

"They're going to be a handful," Sue murmured as she took the boy and handed Seth the bottle. She took another seat and nodded to Seth. He touched Sarabella's lips with the nipple of the bottle, the baby opening her mouth wide.

Silence filled the house.

"I… what?" Seth asked as he watched Sarabella greedily drinking the bottle. She was nearly finished with the first when Sue handed him a second one.

"It looks like for as much of meat-eaters that Jacob and Nessie are, their children are strictly vegetarians. Vegans, actually," Sue said quietly. "This is soy formula. Made strictly without animal byproducts."

"Vegan children of the immortals?" Seth laughed. Sue nodded. He glanced at his mother. "So you know, I imprinted accidentally."

"Let me guess, Jacob wasn't thrilled," Sue commented as she looked at the way her son looked at the baby.

"Not really," Seth said. "But he'll get over it, you know?"

"He will," Sue said as she burped the sleepy boy. "What are their names?"

"The boy is Masen, I guess after Edward, the girl is Sarabella, after Jacob's mom and Bella," Seth said as he mimicked his mothers' actions. Both babies were asleep before he had them secured in the sling.

"There are two cans here," Sue said quietly as she packed them and the clean bottles into a backpack she found in the hall closet. "Have one of the Cullen's take stock in the soy formula company and then buy as much as they can. Something tells me that these two little monsters are going to give you wolf boys a run for your money in the food bill department."

"Will do," Seth said as he headed out the door. "Thanks, mom."

"You are welcome," Sue said. "And you never can underestimate a mother who has reared children in this century."

"So long as you and Charlie don't give Leah any brothers or sisters, we are good," Seth teased. Sue blushed and nodded.

"I'll keep that in mind," Sue said quietly as Seth took off to the woods.

He was barely back on Cullen's land when the rest of the pack and the Cullen Coven surrounded them. At first, they were upset that he had been gone so long, and Alice was unable to see anything to aid them. With the twins being around Seth, Seth's thoughts were unreadable to Edward. It was something no one had prepared for. It had panicked them.

"It's ok, the twins are here," Seth whispered as he touched the two lumps. "I went to see my mom. She says the babies are Vegans."

"Oh, God," Jacob moaned. "It is fatal?"

"Seriously Jake," Nessie said laughing. "They won't eat any animal byproducts."

"Oh, it's worse than fatal," Jacob said though he sounded relieved. "So what do we feed them?"

"Of course," Carlisle said grinning as Seth shoved the bag in his hand. "Soy formula."

"Well, I'm beat," Seth said as he moved towards the house. He stopped and handed the babies to their mother. "My mother says 'congrats on the babies', you two."

He barely had time to strip off his clothes and phase before he was back on the front porch and fast asleep.
