Chapter 3

-

"You're trembling Emmett." Angel ran a hand down his arm. He sat back. "Are you sure you want to do this?"

"Yes. I need to know how I feel about this before I see Carlisle." Emmett looked away. He felt nervous. He had never been with a guy and he certainly never thought that he would be on bottom if he ever was. There was no way Angel would let him be on top. They weren't lovers and Angel was obviously higher ranked than he was.

"Well you need to relax. You're not going to like it at all if you don't. I'd have to break you like I did with Penn. It wouldn't be pretty or fun." Angel pointed out.

"I'm sorry Angel. I've never done this before." Emmett admitted.

"Maybe it would be better if you were with Edward. At least you know him and he's still older than you are." Angel sat up leaning against the head board.

Emmett looked up at Angel. He didn't say anything for a while. "You're nothing like Carlisle said. He said you were cruel, vicious. That you took what you wanted, but you always made it wonderful."

"I'm not like that anymore." Angel admitted. He was on top of Emmett in less than a human heart beat. "But I can try something like that if that's what you want."

"Okay." Emmett agreed. He was greeted with a rough kiss on his lips and a hand pulling on the locks of his hair. He felt his head being pulled back and his neck being exposed. Angel's lips left Emmett's.

Angel sunk his fangs into Emmett's throat. He sucked hungrily, but the taste that assault him made him reel back. He pulled away from Emmett and spat despite the mess he was making. "What the hell is that!"

"It's the poison. Carlisle used it to change me." Emmett gasped he touched the wound on his throat already it was healing but not as quickly as any other wound. It remained open for a long as possible in case Angel wanted to go back to it.

"What was he thinking?" Angel growled without thinking he tore at the skin on his wrist and pressed it to Emmett's lips. "Drink."

"I don't drink human blood, only animal." Emmett turned his head to the side the smell of pure blood of his sire was hard to resist. It wasn't like human blood that was warm, but it had a smell to it. Emmett ached for it.

Angel grabbed Emmett's head and pressed his mouth into the wound. "I'm more than any human or animal." He was pleased when Emmett's mouth open and he drank hungrily. Emmett's eyes turned black and his face began to morph into his true demon face. A face that he had never worn because of the poison but Angel's blood was cleansing him of that. After a few minutes Angel's mouth found Emmett's throat again and he purred. It still tasted tainted but not like before. He used his free hand to pull up Emmett's shirt and touch his skin. He pulled back licking the wounds on Emmett's throat to close them. He growled softly and Emmett's true face disappeared and he released the wrist. Angel sealed up those wounds as well. "You're really big Emmett." He purred pushing Emmett's shirt up. The boy was sedated and calm. It was a side effect of having sire's blood in him. He would let Angel do anything to him in this state. "Carlisle was tiny. He was practically starved when I picked him up. I don't think he had even heard of a muscle before. At least he was tall though. Spike's is a woman compared to you. Short and slender, sometimes I'd put him in Dru's dresses. He hated it of course but they suited him better than some of the men's clothing." Angel's lips teased Emmett's collarbone and stomach. He drew little patterns and circles on them. He was impressed with Emmett's size. He matched him, even at Angelus's strongest in size. He assumed that Emmett spent nights working out. Muscle mass wasn't really common in vampires, who would sometimes go for months without eating. However, for some it was so natural that it never disappeared even when they were dead. He began to undo the button of Emmett's pants. "Why do you let me do this Emmett? Why are you letting me take control? You are an equal match to me, don't you think?"

"Angel," Emmett whimpered pressing his hips towards the awaiting hand. He wasn't really paying attention to what Angel was saying it sounded low and dirty. Besides, he would never challenge Angel. Despite the similar build Angel was over three hundred older than him. He would floor Emmett even with his hands bound and if he was blindfolded.

"No!" Angel snarled. He was up the bed so fast his hand around Emmett's throat. He couldn't suffocate him but it was painful when he squeezed. "You're not allowed to speak to me like that. Do you understand boy?"

Emmett nodded. He felt his eyes bulge even though he didn't need to breath his body acted liked it had to producing the same results.

"What?" Angel released him.

"Yes, sire." Even though Angel wasn't his sire he was his grandsire and the title still applied in a way that it won't if he had succeed in talking Spike into doing this. He now understood why it was important for Angel to. Although Spike out ranked him because his blood was closer to the Master's and therefore more pure, Spike was pretty much the same age as him, only about fifty years older or so. That was nothing compared to the years they had been dead and the gap would shrink the longer they roamed the earth. However, Emmett knew that he would always submit in Angel's presence. Even if it was the way Spike did it, complaining or by pretending that he was doing it for his benefit and not Angel's he would still submit. Although he didn't think he would ever be like Spike, or even get away with acting like Spike. Spike happened to be Angel's chosen and he was more of Angel's equal than anyone ever would be.

"Good, that's what I want to hear." Angel smiled. "I think you're going to find out that you really enjoy this."

"Angel," Spike stood over the bed. Emmett couldn't read his expression not having known him for that long and Angel didn't even both to look. He just growled. "Angel we have a problem."

"Whatever is wrong with you this time I don't want to hear it Spike." Angel sat up but didn't look at Spike. He pointedly continued to undress Emmett. The other vampire looked away from Spike not embarrassed but a little worried that he was going to be caught between the two of them and their feud.

"It's not my problem Angel. It's your problem!" Spike growled. "Forgive me for interrupting you. I'll go take care of Mommy dearest myself." Spike turned around and retreated from the bed. A second later he was pinned to the wall his face squished up against the old wallpaper. "Oiy get off me you pounce!"

"Is that a way to apologize?" Angel voice was a deep growl.

Spike paused for a moment. Emmett didn't even have his pants off so Angel couldn't have had a happy and lost his soul. He didn't really seem like Angelus but he really didn't seem like Angel. Once Spike knew he wasn't dealing with Angelus, he threw Angel off of him. "What the hell is wrong with you? I come tell you that Darla is waiting for you in your office, and you bite my head off. How long has it been since you had sex?"

Angel nose wrinkled and he started to circle, Spike followed the move keeping Angel at a distance. He hoped that Emmett had enough sense to disappear otherwise he'd probably just get in the way. Then Angel stopped his human guise returned and he looked a little spooked. "Darla's here?"

Darla walked into the room, fed up with having to wait on Angel. She was wearing a long red dress but it didn't hide the obvious bulge in her belly. She looked around the room like the predator that she was. She took in all that surrounded her. Angel and Spike facing each other, but calm, relaxed. That was disappointing. Then there was Emmett. He was in Angel's bed half naked and looking sedated. She narrowed her eyes at him. Not only was he sharing Angel's bed, her childe's, but he smelled of poison. He was a lousy excuse for a vampire. Normally Darla would have ignored him. She had other concerns and she knew that she could always deal with him later. However, she sensed that he was no ordinary idiot, but a family idiot. Underneath the smell of poison she could smell that he was one of her own and she felt the tug of familiarity that she felt whenever Angel brought home a new childe. It infuriated her that The Master's blood was in this halfbreed. It was disgusting and it made her skin crawl. She tolerated a lot of flaws in her family, namely Spike, but this she couldn't stand for. She knew it would be easy to do him in. So she didn't hesitate as she leaped across the room, her true face coming out as she flew through the air.

As she came down nearly landing on the bed, Spike met her pushing her off the bed and tumbling off with her. She rolled onto her feet, but he was brought to his knees. He clutched his head and howled in pain. She smiled, with his defenses down she could do him and then move on to the mess on the bed.

Angel incepted her attack on Spike. He had her against the wall a stake raised in his hand. He brought it down only stopping when Spike gasped, "Angel stop! Argh!"

The command froze Angel's movements the stake against Darla's chest. He looked back at Spike but kept Darla pinned to the wall. "What?"

Spike continued grabbing the sides of his head. He took deep unnecessary breaths as the pain dulled. "You can't stake her."

"She tried to kill you and Emmett." Angel turned back to Darla. "I'd be happy to do away with her."

"Baby…has to be…human." Spike groaned coming to sit back on his heels. He kept his eyes closed and leaned against the side of the bed. "You can't. Not until we know what this is all about." Spike chose his words carefully and spoke between gasps of pain. Angel frowned when Emmett leaned over the bed and touched Spike's shoulder.

Angel looked away. It was his job to comfort Spike. He was supposed to be there for him, but he could barely protect him. He knew that it hurt Spike not being able to have his chosen lover after all these years and finally knowing why Angel refused for one hundred years didn't make it any easier. As a consequence, Spike always made it difficult on him. Angel had never been tempted so much by Spike in the last one hundred years. If he gave in however, he knew he wouldn't be able to hold on to his own soul, and he knew the first thing Angelus would do was kill Spike. Even if Spike was his chosen lover Angelus was too bitter and volatile after being locked away for so long to care about something like that. He looked at Darla. He knew he couldn't trust her. At this point he trusted her to keep his human friends alive before he trusted her to let his family survive. There was no way he was going to let her roam around the Hyperion, but he also knew that Spike was right. He couldn't stake her.

"Okay," Angel nodded. He lowered the stake but kept a hold on his sire. He looked over at Spike. "Will you call the team? I can't let her walk around the hotel free. We'll keep her in one room."

Spike nodded standing on his feet. He still looked like he was in pain, but it was obvious that he was getting used to powering through the lasting effects of the chip. Angel didn't like to think about that. It was hard enough knowing that Buffy let her boyfriend muzzle Spike, but the fact that he had it in long enough to get used to some of the effects really bothered him. "Come with me, alright pet?"

Emmett stood from the bed. He didn't bother putting a shirt on and he followed Spike out of the room. When Angel couldn't even smell them in the hall anymore he finally released Darla. He kept my eye on her though and he didn't let go of my stake. "Okay what's going on?"

"You knocked me up and left me high and dry." Darla snapped. She was angry about before, but she could put that behind her. She knew that she needed Angel's help and so she had to play under his rules at least for now.

"How did this happen?" Angel asked confused.

"You know exactly how this happened." Darla said moving around Angel so as not to be against a wall. She held her hands on her lower back and looked up at him.

"This isn't possible." Angel said although he was already doubting what he was saying. There had been that one night earlier that year. He slept with Darla three times, but vampires couldn't have kids.

"Tell me about it Daddy." Darla smirked. "So are you going to help me out?"

"We need to wait until Wesley and the others get here." Namely Wesley, he had the most textbook knowledge of vampires. He might know something about this.

"How long will that be?" Darla asked. Angel shrugged he knew that Wesley, Gunn and Cordelia all knew the dangers associated with Darla. They should try to get to the office early, but that's only if Spike privileged them with the whole story. "Then do you think I can rest for a bit? Do you know what it was like traveling like this?"

"You can rest in my bed." Angel said not willing to let her wander around the hotel with Carlisle's children staying there.

Darla glared at the bed. It smelt like the two of them. The room still did, but she was so tired that she wasn't sure that she could argue. She made her way over to the bed and sat down. "Are you joining me lover?"

"Maybe in a little bit." Angel lied. There was no way he was going to lay in a bed with her. He had loved her at one point and he still had feelings for her, but most of them were bad feelings. He went to the door turning the lights out. He really wanted to find a change of clothes; if his friends were coming over he didn't want to smell like sex. However, he also didn't want to spend anymore time with Darla even with her sleeping.

Spike was waiting outside Angel's room. Angel raised a brow. "They're all coming over early. Fred said that this might be the bad thing you were expecting. Which leaves me with a few questions?"

"Not now Spike. Will you keep an eye on the door?" Angel asked heading down the hall. He knew where there was a spare bathroom at least he could shower even if he couldn't change clothes.

Spike glared at the back of Angel's head. He didn't like being spoken to like that and normally he would have argued but Darla was in listening distance and he was not willing to let her over hear anything that she could use to her advantage. "Fine, but I'm smoking in here."

Angel didn't even flinch or complain. He just kept walking. Spike thought that meant it was serious. He knew the leftover pain in his head made him think it was serious. He pulled out a cigarette and lit it. He just hoped that Angel's problem was cured as easily as his headache.

-

Angel's team all arrived just after an hour. Since Darla was resting Angel decided that it was best not to wake her up. He brought the crew into the room beside his suite. He wanted to be able to hear Darla if she left his room, just in case. The room that Angel chose was pretty much a wreck. There was no bed but the headboard was in pieces on the floor. There was a single chair that looked ready to crack. The team gathered around but decided that it was better not to touch anything. Spike however leaned against the dresser, it was missing two legs on one side but he didn't seem to think that was a problem.

"Did you sleep with her?" Cordelia asked. She looked stunned and a little upset.

Angel met her eyes but feeling guilty he dropped them to the floor. "It was just once. Well the one night, several times."

"Typical." Spike swore and folded his arms. It was obvious to everyone that he was trying hard not to care about something he obviously cared a great deal about.

"But vampires can't get pregnant, Wes?" Angel looked up at him. He had wanted conformation about this especially now that he had close contact with a vampire sub species that was so different then him.

"No they can't. I've never heard of anything like it." Wes looked over at Spike. He would be the only better source if Wes, Angel and Spike all disagreed then that was that, wasn't it?

"You know we can't, I know we can't but they did. At least she did. I don't know if it's his, but after that last statement." Spike spat looking away.

"Two vampires creating a life that could be like a super vampire," Gunn spoke up voicing some of the concerns of the group.

Spike shook his head. "No. That child is human, maybe slayer-super-strength human but human." He tapped his skull. "I have no doubts about that."

"So what are we going to do?" Angel asked looking around his team for any ideas.

"I think we should talk to Alice." Spike spoke up. He knew that the group was subtly avoiding talking about the other vampires and how they made a bad situation worse, but he knew that Alice could help them.

"Alice?"

"Yes?" Alice replied to the group. She walked into the room with Jasper and her two brothers. She smiled happily at them. "Did you need me for something?"

"Sure do, Pet." Spike straightened up obviously more relaxed now that the vampires out numbered humans.

"Spike." Angel spoke up for this team. He looked at his childe. "I don't know."

"You said that we don't stay here for free." Emmett put his thumbs in his belt loops. "Well, we're holding you to that."

"They don't actually have to be in the same room as Darla, luv. They can work behind the scenes." Spike tilted his head slightly.

Angel looked at his team for their opinion. "If we're picking teams, I call Emmett." Cordelia answered.

"If this is the bad thing we expected, Angel, we might need their help." Fred answered looking a little torn.

"About that!" Spike turned around pointing at Angel accusingly. "What is going on?"

Angel ignored him turning to Wesley and Gunn. Wesley shrugged his shoulders. He was more concerned about Darla, a pregnant Darla then the other vampires in the room. Gunn wasn't sure what to think. He trusted Angel and the rest of the team's judgment, even Spike's although his was sometimes compromised by his selfish nature.

"Great. I've always wanted to meet your mother, Spike." Alice said before Angel officially confirmed anything.

"Alright fine, but until I know that Darla isn't going to put anyone in danger I only want myself or Spike dealing with her." Angel compromised.

"Spectacular." Spike groaned not wanting anything to do with the other vampire. He looked at Alice. "Can you let the poof know that you're not in danger?"

Alice nodded. She took a minute to center her balance and took a deep breath. It would help if she had actually seen Darla but it was pretty easy to figure out that the only pregnant vampire in her visions was Darla. "Huh." Alice frowned. She could get a blurry sort of image about what was going to happen but it didn't seem to fit. It was like seeing something that should have happened but something in the present had already changed to make it impossible in the future.

"Our presence here distorted the order of things?" Edward asked.

Alice started to nod but then shook her head. "The order was already distorted because of Spike."

"What?" Spike asked looking nervous about being singled out.

"It's hard to say but it looks like fate had other plans for you, but choosing to come to LA has completely altered them." Alice smiled at Spike. "Who's the blonde?"

"So you don't know anything." Angel interrupted them.

"No. I didn't say that. I'm not sure what's going to happen, because the universe is altered, but I can tell you what would have occurred those things still could come around on us." Alice explained.

Angel opened his mouth. "Angel." Wesley spoke up. "If we are teaming up, I think that Fred and I should work with Alice and Jasper. We've been researching the prophecy and we'll need their help the most."

"You're going to find out about what fate had in store, and then let me know what I can expect." Angel asked.

"Pretty much." Wesley nodded. "You don't mind working with us do you?"

"Not at all." Alice shook her head. "I watched you work in Forks. You're very good. Jasper?"

Jasper looked up. He shrugged his shoulders slightly. "That's fine."

"We'll get started." Wesley knew the rest of the group would probably split up. Some would keep an eye on Darla and the rest would go out to see if they could get information from other sources

"What's this prophecy then?" Spike asked.

Angel turned on Spike. "It might not even be important anymore. Should you be in Sunnydale?"

"Hey guys," Gunn interrupted them. "What is important is that Darla is lying in the next room and pregnant with Angel's love child. Can we focus on that?"

"Darla's awake." Edward spoke up.

"What?" Angel's head shot up he looked at the door.

"She's hungry." Edward stiffened a little a look of disgust crossed his face. It wasn't long before the vampires heard Angel's door open. They could sense when Darla passed by the door.

Edward moved to the door. "Where are you going ponce?" Spike snapped.

"I'm going to keep her from slaughtering children," Edward spoke as he reached the door. Spike turned to look at Angel the older vampire followed Edward without speaking.

"What?" Spike followed him to the door. Emmett and Gunn were right behind him.

"She craves purity." Edward whispered even though it was useless if Darla was right outside the door.

"Spike and I will take care of her." Angel opened the door the hall was empty. He knew that meant Darla was already far ahead of them.

"I'm coming as well." Edward insisted the two older vampires started to disagree. "You are worried about what she'll do to me but I refused to sit here looking at books."

"It's alright with me. I'll keep an eye on him, besides he might provide a distraction like Emmett was." Spike followed Angel down the front stairs of the lobby. Alice and Jasper were helping Wesley and Fred off the floor. "Looks like she's been though here."

"We tried to stop her kicks and punches with our faces and our bodies, but she had no interested in us. She just ran through." Jasper explained. He looked up at Edward. "Are you going with them?"

"I can help track her. She's still in my head." Edward smiled at his brother's concern. "I'll be fine."

"Take this." Gunn handed Edward a crossbow. "Do you know how to use it?"

"Well, I wasn't much of a hunter when I was alive." Edward glanced at the crossbow.

"Carlisle hasn't taught you to fight?" Spike asked with a slight snarl.

"Jasper and I know how to use that thing." Emmett spoke up.

"That's great but I'm not dragging more of you kids out there." Spike shook his head. He knew Jasper could hold his own in most fights but he had never gone against Darla. She was feared for a reason.

Gunn put the crossbow back. "This shouldn't be difficult to use." He handed Edward a stake. "Just don't trip."

"Alright." Edward held the stake a little uneasily.

"Let's go." Spike picked up a large axe. He didn't think he would be far enough away from Darla to use the crossbow but he knew he needed to be able to protect himself. Darla was stronger than normal. Besides Spike might only have one blow before his head exploded in pain.

Angel rolled his eyes and Spike's weapons choice. "We'll be back before sunrise." He led the way out of the hotel. Spike jogged next to Edward trying to teach him the best way to hold the stake. He was so busy he didn't even complain about having to walk.

It wasn't long before they arrived at inside an arcade. Edward told Angel that they had to hurry, he was lucky that Darla took her time. Just before Darla's teeth sunk into a little blond boy, who lost his Mommy, Angel arrived. He tackled Darla and the little boy ran away. Spike's game face came out first, but Darla's and then Angel's followed right after his. Angel and Darla faced off each other. Spike stood back with Edward. He could honor a fair fight, besides it would be better if Darla's focus wasn't split from the beginning. If she didn't know that she needed to be watching her back then she might not be ready for Spike when she shoved his axe into her back.

"You don't know what it's like. I'm so hungry all the time. I can't get full." Darla growled. She tried to find a good way to escape Angel so that she could eat.

"If you wanted to eat children, you should have done so before you made your presence known to me." Angel moved forward. He didn't want to kill Darla. He believed Spike when he said that the baby was human, and if the baby was his, he knew he couldn't risk hurting the baby. He would kill Darla before she hurt another innocent child but if he could just capture her and get her to calm down then he wouldn't have to risk hurting his baby as well. He could figure out what was going on and make a decision.

Darla moved underneath him coming around behind. She kicked him in the back of the head sending him flying into a pong game. She brushed her hair from her eyes. She debated about staying to finish the fight or going off to find those children. She had come to Angel for a reason and she didn't want to risk that for a meal. Did she?

"No, you don't." Edward stepped forward. He was standing with Spike just to the right of her. She looked up at him and narrowed her eyes knowing what he was instantly. "You want Angel's help right? You want to get rid of that baby, yes?"

Darla narrowed her eyes even more and stepped forward. Spike moved closer to Edward. He wasn't going to let Darla think that she had an easy shot at him. Darla stopped cold glaring at Spike. "Seems like he has enough family that needs his help already."

"Mine can wait." Edward smiled just slightly. "I have time. You on the other hand…" He paused a moment tilting his head. From about 7 month mark of pregnancy to about the sixth month of life a baby thought in pure emotions and not much. Jasper was better at reading a baby's thoughts then Edward was. However he could hear the soft hum from inside Darla. "Have a few days if that."

"Days? We have to figure this out in days?" Angel asked. He walked up behind Darla. He put his hands on her shoulders. He had a small dent in his forehead but he looked alright.

"That's what I think. We'll need to talk to Jasper, but this baby coming soon." Edward pointed to Darla's stomach.

"So you think it's human too?" Angel asked. He would have to talk to Fred and Wesley about hurrying up with the prophecy translation later but now he was more concerned about what was in Darla.

"Yes." Edward agreed. "Vampires who join the Voltari are able to sometimes produce an heir. It's usually between a male vampire and a female human but in rare cases two vampires have produced an heir before."

"Really?" Darla asked. She didn't like the idea that her bloodline was being tainted but knowing that she was not the only vampire who had experienced this made her relieved. She wasn't alone in this. She could feel at eased that somehow they could get through this too.

"Is that true?" Angel asked looking surprised but also a little relieved. He wasn't part of the Voltari but since meeting Edward, Emmett, Alice and Jasper he could see that in some ways, with his soul he was more like them then he was like Darla.

"Ask Carlisle. He'll explain everything to you." Edward looked between the two of them. "He can even help with the delivery."

"Carlisle." Darla looked at Edward closely. She tried to step forward but Angel didn't release her. She took a deep breath smelling Edward. Then she threw her head back and laughed. "No wonder. The Master could never find him. Oh that bastard. He thought he was so proud running off. He couldn't stand the fact that Angelus wanted a real childe like Penn. He was always whiny about how Angelus cared about him. Pathetic."

"Darla." Angel growled shaking her. He knew that he purposely brought in Penn for a challenge but also to piss off Carlisle. However, Angelus had created Carlisle and Spike in a way that left them more human than other vampires. They felt something. Angel thought that Angelus liked to do so because he was cruel and knew how to use Carlisle and Spike's humanness against them. However now he was starting to suspect that Angelus on some level needed them to be more human because he needed to feel like he had love surrounding him. Vampires didn't love, not like humans did, they didn't possess souls so it was very difficult. They had a unique society where loyalties and bloodlines were everything but love was a shadow compared to the human emotion. Drusilla was another story completely.

"No. Angel." Darla looked up at him. "Is this Carl's childe?"

"I'm his first." Edward spoke up. He felt loyal to his father and wouldn't deny him ever.

Darla smiled at Edward and laughed again. "I think I couldn't be happier right now."

"Does this mean you wouldn't kill him or Emmett?" Spike asked. He wasn't really worried about Alice and Jasper. They weren't part of their bloodline. So even though they were what Darla called 'dirty' she wouldn't bother with them.

"No, not at all." Darla smiled.

"Let's get back to the hotel. You can tell your pets the information we found out and I'll call Carlisle." Spike suggested to Angel. He nodded slightly keeping a firm grip on Darla still. Spike made Edward walk a step or so ahead of him just in case Darla went back on her word.

"Tell me how the Vatican is these days?" Darla asked.

"Don't tell her anything." Spike told Edward. "The last thing Carlisle wants is for Darla to show up. He hates her more than I hate her."

"I wasn't planning too. I can hear her thoughts." Edward reminded. "I'm serious about waiting the week, but no longer."

"I hear you. We'll talk about that later Edward. I'm sure things will get a quiet soon enough. Then I'll tell you everything." Spike promised not wanting to talk about his soul in front of Darla.

"How about you tell me everything in the morning before you sleep?" Edward asked.

"Well, Jasp and I were talking about double dick…" Spike trailed off at the low growl that he heard from Angel behind them. He thought that he was concentrating on getting Darla back to the hotel and not listening to them but he was wrong. "I'll talk to you in the morning."

"Great."

(A/N: What does everyone think so far? I am trying to put a little of everything in here, action, adventure, fantasy, romance. I hope you like it! Sorry if some of the characters aren't perfectly in character it was hard working with both groups of vampires and mixing their stories together. Next chapter will be about Forks and what is happening with Bella, Jacob and the rest of the Cullens.)
