It was midnight when I heard Sam's howl. I struggled out of bed. I was sleeping in my undergarments. I was out of my room sprinting toward the front door.
"Where are you going?" Mom asks, sleepily as she saw me running from my room,
"Sam's calling." I answer, "Go back to sleep."
"What's happening?" Mom asks more awake.
"I don't know." I reply, I was already trembling as I try to hold back the fire that would change me from woman to wolf,
"Go." mom ordered
I was already out the door before she could finish the word blurring as I phased.
About time, Embry teased
Shut up, what's going on? I ask
Jacob was there at Sam's right flank as I pushed myself to join my pack. Something was up.
The Cullens have asked for an understanding. Sam answered my question.
I entered the clearing where we normally met for meetings.
An understanding? I repeat
Jacob shared his thoughts, followed by Embry and Quil to give us another perspective.
I walked up and sat at Sam's left flank. So let me get this straight, some leech is creating an army of bloodsuckers and you're really thinking about working with the Cullens?"
To protect Bella. Jacob answers
Like I give a damn about what happens to her, she's chosen her side. I reply
Next thing, I knew I was being pounced on by Jacob. He was snapping at my front shoulder blades. As I tried to dislodge him. I wasn't going to defend myself.
You two stop this at once! Sam ordered as his voice took on the double edge to it.
Jacob and I bowed before him like puppets.
Sam then approached me baring his teeth, You will not say another word about Bella Swan to Jake. Do I make myself clear?
My body bowed even lower to the ground I was about to roll over onto my back to show my stomach. I wasn't the one to be submissive, but I couldn't do a blast thing about it. We had chosen Sam to be Alpha. Yes, Sam.
Jacob then showed us where the Cullens planned to lure in the newborns. Sam agreed to the plan. Much to my resentment. But they did have a point, we needed numbers.
Awesome, we get to kill some vamps! Seth exclaims.
No, you don't. The rest of us growled back to him.
It isn't all bad, as least some vamps were targets. We went back to home to rest because we were meeting with the Cullens tomorrow morning at 3am.
After sleeping the morning and part of the afternoon away.
I looked at my mom. I wanted her away from Forks and the only way to do that was to have her stay here in La Push.
"Mom, you're going to stay with Emily. The Pack and I have to do something very important in the next few days." I state, my tone was firm.
Mom looked at me, I don't know what she saw within my eyes but I had a guess it was fear for her safety. She consented to stay at Emily's.
I escorted her to Emily's later in the evening.
"Emily? Can I speak to you outside?" I ask looking at her from under my eyelashes.
Sam looked at me questioning why I was asking to speak with his imprintee.
Emily and I walked far enough away to not to over heard.
"What is it that you need?" Emily asks
I turned to her with tears pricking my eyes, I decided to ask Emily something just in case something happened to me in the coming fight. Emily gasped as she saw my expression.
"If I don't make it back, Will you explain everything to my mom? That I am doing this for her as much as to the Tribe?" I ask
"Yes, but I know you will be coming back," Emily answers.
"Just in case. I know my mom can keep our secret." I state.
Together we walked back, Sam looked at Emily but she just grinned and shook her head.
We stayed at Emily's until the early hours of the morning each of us thinking about who could we lose what minds would leave us forever in the coming fight. We each phased and left.
We walked in together, Jake and I were closer to Sam.
Paul growled slightly as we stopped away from the Cullens.
Paul, ease up. I state before Sam could. We're on the same side for now.
Jake was surprised that the mind reader would have allowed Bella to even be here watching this practice.
"They don't trust us enough to be in their human forms." Edward explains.
Got that right, leech.
Edward's eyes flickered to me, and my lips pulled back to show my teeth.
"They came. That's all that matters." Carlisle replies "Will you translate?" he stood up to stand before Sam,
Jake took a step forward in Bella's direction.
"Hey, Jake." Bella whispers.
Sam growled cutting Jake's thoughts short, because I would disobey the command and tease Jake.
"Welcome." Carlisle greets, he motioned toward the other male blonde "Jasper has experience with newborns. He'll teach us how to defeat them."
Sam looked at Edward.
"They want to know how the newborns differ from us." Edward translates. The Pack joint question.
"They're a great deal stronger then us because their own human blood lingers in their tissues" Carlisle explains, "Our kind is never more physically powerful then in our first several months of this life." he nodded to Jasper.
Jasper step forward "Carlisle's right. That's why they are created. A newborn army doesn't need thousands like a human army, but no human army could stand against them."
A collective shudder went through us as we got the meaning behind those words. The newborns would kill humans.
"Now, the two most important things to remember are, first, never let them get their arms around you. They'll crush you instantly." Jasper continued. "And second, never go for the obvious kill. They'll be expecting that, and you will lose. Emmett!"
the big one step up and walks to the other side.
"Don't hold back." Jasper states
"Not in my nature." he replied
I watched with an analyzing eye, I could tell that Jasper would be the hardest to kill if we ever started a war between them and us. While Emmett relied on his strength.
"Never lose focus." Jasper states as he finished with Emmett. He walked around looking at the others practice against each other.
Edward relied on his mind reading, he had Carlisle on the ground.
"One more thing." Jasper states
Edward looked at Jasper, that is until Carlisle kicked his legs out from under him.
"Never turn your back on your enemy."
Jasper trained with the blonde female and the pixie looking one.
I had to suppress my enjoyment at watching Jasper turn around confused as the pixie-like leech hid from him only to drop down on his shoulders.
Jacob crossed over to stand near Bella.
my lips pulled back, as I wanted to growl at him.
"Some of you are gonna get hurt. Some of you could get killed because of me." Bella whispers to Jake, not thinking that the rest of us could hear her. What got be was that she was worried about us instead of herself. "It's gonna be a 100 times worse then this, right?"
I watched as Jake leaned his head down to comfort Bella. She scratched him between the ears like he was a common dog. I'm surprised his tail didn't start wagging.
We each turned and left after we were finished.
DarkPriestess66: Yes, I used lines from the movie. So me no own.
