Yay!
Chapter 2 people! :D You all love me, I can tell. Or else you wouldn't have reviewed, now would you?
So, this is the chapter where secrets are revealed, powers are defined, and new things come to light. Or at least the first half of it, heh :D
I got 6 favorites, 5 story alerts, and 4 reviews. Not bad for a first chapter.
Last chapter: Well, sorry for the spelling variation between Gwen and Gwyn. It messed up and I had to choose one, but I chose Gwen. So Gwyn won't be seen anywhere else in the story.
BTW: I put Jacob in the story. You'll see what role he plays. It may not be the violent one some people wish he had, but I honestly don't see the point. I mean, they hate Edward as it is. Must we really add some to the werewolf?
BTW 2!: The whole kiss scene that happened in New Moon book/movie never happened, and Jake instead helped Bella in her time of need. Edward never said no to Bella, and DID have sex with her, then left. That is where/how this story takes place. :)
Oh and no I don't hate Edward, I don't hate Jacob, and I don't hate Bella. I don't hate anyone in Twilight, I don't see the point in wasting my hate on them. I give it to the people in my school instead.
Alright I lied. Only Caius. He has evolved past hate.
Now he is ready to kill if I ever find him; with my bazooka.
I love you bazooka :D
Jane and Alec seem..kinda strange, but whatever, and Aro is just annoying, but yeah...like I said, whatever. Marcus seems to be the only sane one in the Volturi anyway.
Wow, this is long...and now I shall stop babbling and let you read!
Disclaimer: Do I look like Stephanie Meyer? Didn't think so.
Summary: POST NEW MOON. Edward leaves Bella pregnant. With quintuplets. Now Bella and her new family are back in Forks, living a new life, and so are the Cullens. Not to mention ANOTHER group in the area too. How will things go from here? Read to find out.
Warning: TOTAL AU, lots of powers, OOC-ness will ensue, some of the pairings are NOT normal (hence AU), and yeah...I got nothing else to say.
LAST TIME ON New Life-
We raced into the Gym, and we were so close to the doors-
They slammed shut and Jasper was standing there. We skidded to a halt. "Damn!" Marcus muttered.
There were the other doors, the one the other Cullens were guarding. We were trapped. Everyone knew it.
Then someone slammed through the concrete wall, and that someone was standing in front of us.
Mom.
"Bella." Edward whispered, eyes widening. Everyone stared at her.
She growled at them. "Stay away from my kids."
NOW ON New Life-
~*Edward*~
Bella.
Sweet, wonderful, glorious Bella. She was alive.
"Stay away from my kids." she growled. Kids?
It explained everything. How the girl had known who I was, how the kids knew who we were, everything- they were the children Bella had been pregnant with.
They were my kids.
Bella snarled at us again. "Leave. Now." she ordered them. They shook their heads, not budging an inch from where they were.
"Bella wait," I said, holding my hands up. "We're not here to fight. We just wanted to know who they were. Their not human. Or werewolf. And definitely not vampire."
She sighed before putting a hand to her forehead. "Just leave it alone Edward. Leave it alone." She made a sort of gesture behind her back and they turned to Jasper.
"Jazz, move." He jumped to the side and ran to ours. In a matter of seconds he was by Alice's side.
"Come on guys," the boy who looked the oldest said. "Let's go." They ran out and we were alone.
"Who were they?" Rosalie whispered. Emmett was holding her, as was Jasper with Alice.
Edward, I'm worried. These kids know who we are, and I doubt they don't know other things too...
"I know. That's a problem." I frowned. Bella being here wasn't a bad thing, but...not a entirely good one either.
The biggest problem is the Volturi. If they learn of these children, your kids Edward, it will not have a good outcome.
"I know." I answered the unspoken thought. "But until Bella gives the answers we're looking for we'll have to wait. And watch."
The others nodded, and we left quietly.
My kids...
~*Gwen*~
We ran out, and I could see my mom's shield cloaking us. We got as far as the Quilete line before she stopped.
"Mom!" I said, grabbing her into a hug. I felt hot bodies being pressed against ours. "Guys get off!" I said. They laughed but stepped back.
"What are you doing here? How did you know where we were?" "Well, I went to the hospital today to see if I could find any big bandages for wolves, and I saw Carlisle."
"The doctor?" Aidyn asked. She nodded. "I figured that meant the rest of them too. I followed Edward's scent and when I couldn't open the doors I decided to make one in the wall."
Caleb smirked. Ever since my mom had become a vampire, she was good at breaking things when needed. We, on the other hand, could only do it on accident.
She sighed, a long heavy one. "Do you kids still want to go to school tomorrow? You don't have to, and if you want we could leave..." she trailed off.
I didn't want to leave. My Uncle Jake was here. Quil, Embry, Paul, Leah, Collin, Brady, Claire, Emily, Sam...they were part of our family too. I shook my head.
"I don't want to leave. I think we can deal with it. I mean, I doubt Dad can get in our heads with my shield up, and Jasper's empathy thing doesn't work on the twins, so we'll be safe."
She gave me a doubtful look, like it was impossible for the 5 of us to stay safe.
Very true in a way.
"Mom, please, don't make us leave." I pleaded. Then I gave her the biggest puppy dog eyes I could. She sighed but nodded. We cheered.
"But I want you guys with your Uncle Jake everyday after school. I mean it, its the only place they can't go. I can't go. But you can, so I want you over there everyday after 2:45. Understood?"
We nodded, unable to contain our grins. With that said, we went home. As soon as we got in the door, the guy fell on the food. The 4 of them were packing cookies and chips and fruit and everything into their mouths. I rolled my eyes.
My brothers acted like a pack of hungry hyenas.
I ate my own share of food. Sure, we preferred blood to actual food, but that didn't mean we wouldn't eat it. Heck, we ate almost everything these days.
Mom used to joke that we were becoming like Uncle Jake.
I went up to my room, wishing I could pull my headphones on and drown myself in music, like the good old days.
But I couldn't. Not when there was such a dangerous threat to our family.
My family.
I sighed, exhausted but not tired. A strange thing these days, but whatever. And then I remembered our promise to Uncle Jake. If we ever wanted to talk about anything, all we had to do was call.
And this was one of the times when I really wanted to do that.
I hit 5 on my cell phone speed dial and waited as the phone rang in my ear. I heard breathing on the other end; he'd picked up. "Hullo?" he muttered sleepily.
His voice was thick with it. "Hey Uncle Jake," I said. "You sleep?" "Nah kid, I'm hang-gliding. What ya need?" I giggled.
"Got a sec to talk?" "Sure." he said.
"Can I come to the reservation?" "Yeah, you know you're invited anytime." his voice was concerned. I forgot, I ask unneeded questions when I'm nervous.
"I'll be there in a few." I said, and hung up. Pulling on my jacket, I came downstairs. "Mom, I'm going to La Push!" I yelled as I ran out. "Why?" I heard her call, even though there was a lot of distance between us.
Our hearing wasn't as good as a vampire, or a wolf, but it was okay all the same.
*Why are you going to La Push?* I heard Caleb ask in my head.
*Just wanna talk to Uncle Jake.* I said back. He didn't ask again, and I ran the rest of the way in silence. I felt the electrical surge of energy I always felt when I passed the treaty line.
I was in La Push.
I spied a large chocolate brown wolf in the trees. "Quil!" I called.
His ears pricked and turned in my direction. The large floppy tongue hung out his mouth, and he loped over to me. "Hey Quil," I said, scratching behind his ears. "How's Claire?"
His chest rumbled, and the sound almost sounded like a purr. He sat down next to me as I scratched his ears. I smelled someone else, a husky scent...like tree bark.
"Hey Gwen." Sam said, coming out of the trees. I jumped as high as I could and put a hand to my chest for dramatic effect. "Jeez Sam! Way to give a girl a heart attack!"
He chuckled. "Hey Quil." he greeted him. Quil nodded, then stood up and loped back into the trees. "I ran into someone today." Sam said casually. He sat down next to me.
This was gonna be bad.
"You're dad, actually. When we're you gonna tell us the Cullens were back?" his black eyes were fixed on me, and the intensity of his gaze made me look away.
Don't get me wrong, Uncle Jake is my best friend and all, family, and he could read me as well as Caleb. But Sam...he always had a way of getting into my head.
Putting what was wrong out in the open. I admired him for it, but also feared and envied him too. Fear, because he easily did it to me. Envy, because I wish I could do that.
"I was going to. I came to talk to Uncle Jake." I kept my eyes down. But he put a hand under my chin and pulled my face up. "Why didn't you tell him on the phone."
I blushed. Another thing I had inherited from my mom. Damn.
He sighed and ran a hand through his hair. Something made him and Caleb do that unconsciously or something. "I say that because I'm sure you met them in school today." I nodded.
Nothing escaped Sam's attention.
"Well? How did it go?" he inquired. I took a deep breath and launched into a full out description of the event. His hands clenched and unclenched during the time.
"He found out?" his eyes widened. I didn't know what that look meant, but it was somewhat strange. Nothing surprised Sam. And if it did, he didn't show it.
I nodded mutely. He growled. His body was shaking. My eyes widened. Sam always had control. I ran a short distance, into the house. Emily was standing there, stirring a huge pot of tomato soup.
"Emily." I said, gaining her attention. "Hey Gwen." she said, smiling at me. "Sam is losing control. I told him about our encounter with the Cullens and he freaked."
She looked strange. Almost as if she had expected it to happen. "Where is he?" she demanded. I turned around and gestured to my back. She climbed on, something I was grateful for.
Emily was far from heavy, and I was far from weak, but when people jumped...let's just say I try to hug the ground while their on me.
I raced there, and we saw Sam, trembling, trying to calm himself down. He seemed to be muttering to himself. I lowered her to the ground and she marched right over, unafraid of the large, shaking man who was seconds away from turning into a werewolf.
She reached up on tiptoe and placed a hand behind his neck and with what looked like all her strength, pulled his mouth on hers. The shaking stopped instantly, and I saw his arms curl around her waist.
I sighed, but it didn't disturb them. I wished I had someone like that. Someone who I would love with all my heart and never want to let go of. An imprint.
I knew the concept wasn't the same. They were wolves, I was a half-vamp half-human girl. There was a major difference.
I walked away, hearing sudden moans, and trust me, I did NOT want to see this. I went into Jake's house, where he was laying, asleep, on the sofa. His large frame took up the whole thing, and his long legs hung off. He made the thing look minuscule.
I coughed. He snored again, and I huffed. Whoever came up with the ideas to make wolves heavy sleepers was crazy. Plain crazy.
Just as I was about to walk to the back, I tripped over a shirt strewn across the floor. I caught myself, but knocked a pen on the floor. The carpet didn't mute it to my ears, and apparently not his either.
He jerked up, looking around. I laughed at the sight. He glanced over at me and his face erupted into a big smile. "Hey Gwen." he pulled me into a hug.
"Can't. Breathe." I gasped. He laughed, but set me down. "The Cullens?" he asked. I nodded. "I'm not worried. I think we can take him. Plus, we have 7 wolves, Bella, and 5 extremely strong half-vamps on our side."
I smiled. Jake was always ready to fight. It was as expected as the twins pulling pranks.
"So what exactly did Sam say to Father dearest." I said, sitting on the small sofa. Jake flopped down and nearly launched me into the air. I glared at him.
"Sorry." he apologized. "Sam chewed him out for leaving Bella. The stupid lee- I mean Edward just flipped him off. And ran." I sighed. "What are we gonna do. I don't want to leave, but if it's safer we have to."
"I know." he said. "I don't want you to leave, but if it's safe..." he trailed off. *Gwen. Come home. Now. The Cullens are here.* I gasped and growled.
"What is it?" his eyes searched for a threat. I shook my head, but the words came out forced. "The Cullens. They went to our house." A snarl erupted from Jake's chest and I motioned for him to come outside.
As soon as we got out his pants ripped and there was a explosion of red-brown fur. I was now a couple inches away form a furious, slightly sleep deprived wolf.
Oh goody.
I hopped onto his back and he took off. Mom had told me what her experience had been like with Dad, on his back. It felt something like being on Uncle Jake's, I mused.
The wind billowed my curls out behind me, and we reached the house in no time. Standing on the side of the street were all 7 Cullens. Rosalie, Emmett, Jasper, Alice, Esme, Carlisle, and the main character, Edward.
He walked across as Jake set me down, still growling at them. Mom was outside too, and she bared her teeth. They gleamed in the bright sunlight, and every vampire sparkled brightly.
Good thing we don't have any neighbors.
"Jacob." he said, nodding curtly. "Bella," his voice turned warm. "I need to talk to you about this. About my kids." Mom laughed harshly. "Your kids? You left Edward. You choose to leave, and there is nothing that can be done to change that."
Caleb came out and stood next to me, hands clenched tightly. The wind whistled loudly, and it blew hard. I laid a hand on his arm. "Calm down." I whispered.
The wind died down and he was taking deep breaths in and out, trying to calm himself. I nodded and turned my attention back to the family I'd never known.
"I didn't know you were pregnant Bella." he spoke calmly, as if talking to a 4 year old. "If I had known, I would have stayed. I would have helped."
Uncle Jake snarled again, and everyone's attention was on the large very pissed off werewolf. "I didn't know until you told me!" Edward protested.
"I don't need a lecture from you, Jacob Black. I know I did wrong, and I'm here to fix it." his voice turned icy. It sent shivers down my spine. But I refused to be intimidated, and stared at him.
I stepped forward, as did the twins, Marcus and Caleb. "You left us. You left her. Who said we wanted you back in our lives?" They stayed quiet, but I could feel Jasper trying to calm me.
Aidyn and Caidyn growled at him. He murmured something to the rest of them too low for us to hear.
~*Edward*~
How can you say that to her! If you hadn't left at all you would have known, bloodsucker!
"I didn't know until you told me!" I shot back. Jacob blamed me. As he should.
They have grown up to be fine kids, and that is WITHOUT you help, leech. I don't even know why you bothered showing up, Bella won't give you a damn thing-
"I don't need a lecture from you, Jacob Black. I know I did wrong, and I'm here to fix it." Out of the corner of my eyes I saw the girl with curly hair step forward, along with her brothers.
"You left us. You left her. Who said we wanted you back in our lives?" We didn't answer. We knew they would have a grudge against us. We'd hurt their mother, that made it personal.
Lemme see if I can calm them...
Jasper was sending out waves of calm, and all of a sudden the twin boys growled at him. "Their immune." he said quietly. Alice turned to look at him.
Looks like my kids have gifts of their own.
Bella seemed torn. I looked at her face, and I saw her conflict immediately. She wanted her kids to get to know us. But could she chance it?
"Bella please, I want to get to know my kids." And you, I added silently. "Will you allow us that privilege?"
She bit her lip, and they noticed. "Mom, no!" the girl cried. She seemed to have made up her mind.
"Fine Edward. The kids will stay with you while I'm out of town. And if they say so, you can continue the relationship with them after I come back. If not, you will never contact us again."
I nodded. Fair terms.
Well, you're in for it bloodsucker. Get ready for the ride of your life. These kids are gonna kill you.
Normally I would have snorted from the irony of his sentence, as if someone could kill us, but today I didn't.
I knew he wasn't that far from the truth.
Introductions, Part 1!
This was actually pretty fun to write, and it was extremely hilarious to imagine. I mean, just picture it. The kids, a furious Bella, and wolfy, pissed off Jacob.
Well, I already have next chapter written out. But I want...maybe 5-10 reviews before I do so. So don't be surprised if the story isn't updated for a while.
Okay, well, glad you enjoyed, and review to make my day! And, you know, tell me how good the story is. But mostly to make my day. :)
Bye!
LUV, BlueBambi XD
