Ok, so some of you do read my story, but I don't get a lot of reviews. And I know what you're probably thinking, first, she's actually writing at the beginning of a chapter… and secondly, there's too much dialogue. YES I AM WRITING AT THE BEGINNING OF MY CHAPTER and I know there's too much dialogue…and I'm working on it…between online classes, work, homework, school work, band, jazz band, and anything else that comes up. So enjoy this chapter.

The family

Richelle heard the door bell ringing. She got it and Jayson was standing in the doorway.

"Where's Reynard?"

"he's not going," Arceneaux answered.

Jayson gave a look of concern. Richelle could feel the tension between them. This was going to be a "fun" ride down to South Bend, IN.

They walked to Jayson's car and Richelle was someone jumping up and down. When they opened the door, they were greeted by none other than Honré.

"Bonjour!" he said loudly.

Blade was in the front passenger's seat so Richelle got in between Honré and Arceneaux. The ride down was long with Honré rumbling about every little detail of what he use to do back in France. He was one very hyperactive child.

They got down to La Push and ended up on the Beach. There were already people from school there. Richelle recognized them from lunch. She also saw Edward Cullen and Bella Swan. They stayed in the shade and were wearing dark hooded clothes. They barely moved from their spot. There was also two other people with them in the shade.

They parked and got out. Jayson was careful about being close to Richelle. Some of the boys from the reservation came up to Jayson.

"Comimg back to live with us back on the reservation, Jayson?" They asked him.

"No, I'm fine in Chicago."

"Well if you ever fell like you're not welcomed, there's always room at my house. My parents said that you were welcomed any time. Jacob usually goes there to visit them but that's another story."

"I'm fine thanks for the offer,"

Anthony shrugged and walked away with the other boys.

"That's my cousin," He told Richelle, "they all want me to come and live on the reservation with them. They think it's strange to go and live in Chicago the way my family lives. They're living with some of my other cousins in Chicago. They're always doing that."

Richelle found herself looking into one of the pools that were made by some of the younger children by diging deep in the sand.* She watched the small marine life swarming around. Just then she felt the air pressure around her change. It wasn't one of the others. There was power in them. She was waiting for the perfect moment to attack.

Right when they were in range, someone else attacked the person. Richelle turned around to find that Lyle and Jayson were wrestling on the ground. She panicked. Jayson didn't know what Lyle could do.

Jason wasn't looking too good. His skin began to become pale. Richelle tried to pull Lyle off of him, but Lyle soon turned and got her. She began to lose feeling. He had blocked her power somehow.

Right as her vision began to blur, she heard a "smack" and came back into focus.

"Arceneaux," Reynard called.

Arceneaux looked over to find Reynard running towards him.

"Where's Richelle?"

"Somewhere here," he replied. "What are you doing here?"

"Lyle's here, was his only answer. Arceneaux didn't need any more explanation. They had to find Richelle.

Richelle got up slowly and looked a Lyle. Jayson had punched him. He made a move, but Richelle just decided to attack. She hit him with some ice then changed the ground so that Lyle sunk in and couldn't get out.

"W-what are you?" Jayson exclaimed.

"Wouldn't you like to know," Arceneaux responded. He walked up to Lyle and placed his hand on Lyle's head. Lyle seemed to resist, feinted, and then Richelle let him go. Arceneaux picked him up.
"Reynard, stay here with Richelle. I'm going to take Lyle home." He told Reynard.

"But you'll be seen," Jayson stated.

"Not if they can't" Arceneaux answered and walked away.

Jayson jumped, "He just disappeared!"

"he'z a telepath. He can mez wiz part of your mind zo zat you zink he'z not zere," Reynard explained.

"A t-t-telepath?"

Richelle walked to him, "Your hurt,"

"Get away from me!" he stammered.**

Richelle jumped back.

"What do you do? You hit him with something!"

"I can control ze elements," she confessed.

Jayson looked at her in disbelief.

"And I thought my family was strange…"

Reynard and Richelle looked at him curiously.

"Remember how is said that my friend's great grandfather knew Bella Swan's great great aunt? Well, that friend was my cousin…and he's a shape-shifter."

A/N: There's not really much to say after my note at the beginning of the chapter so I'm just going to go ahead with the asterisks.

*If you've never done this at a beach, it's actually fun (After you've hit water) even though it takes FOREVER to dig.

**there's actually a little joke around this one. I'm friends with some of the smartest people in my class (don't laugh because you probably know some smart people that help you with things too) and I told one of them about me taking a martial art and what would happen if he got on my nerves. Unfortunately he's one of the most gullible people I know and took me seriously and was afraid of me…

In contrary of that, I told another friend that thought that I couldn't do anything to hurt someone and began to act differently to me (Not like stay away from me, but that's so awesome will you show me?). I told him a few things and he asked me to demonstrate on him, and I told him, "one, I don't see any reason why, two, I'm not going to demonstrate a move that would hurt you really badly if I'm not careful (He wanted me to show him something that is more advanced than a punch or kick), and three I'd get suspended from school and my martial art". He said he'd take the blame, but I wasn't going to take the chance. Geeze, I wasn't going to do that to a good friend. (True story)
