Author's Note: HAPPY 23RD BIRTHDAY TO ME
Chapter .2.
Bella's POV
As soon as I change back I look at the bonds between them determining who were mates and what their relationship to each other. But I see bonds stretched to my siblings and me. They were flicking in colour so it was hard to tell what it was. I now sense their aura the vampires had a peaceful aura not really all that threatening. The black alpha and his beta and third had a very hostile aura. They others I can tell where not very threaten thanks to the imprinting. The female wolf stopped growling and was staring at Matt.
I do a peaceful gesture again. I am determined not to fight them but make peace with them. After all we all imprinted so they would be our family now. Now that was a strange thought. Family. We have only ever had each other.
"We mean you no harm", I say
They look at each other.
"Can you please tell us what we have done to warrant an attack?" I ask
"You all our dangerous. You planned to kill us", the scared one says
I look at him with curiosity.
"We would never kill…", I start
"I saw it!" the pixie vampire says
Suddenly it all makes sense from their memories too the way they were talking.
"The future isn't set in stone. It changes ever second. I hardly ever bother with it myself. I have a version of it. I find it unreliable at the best of times", I say calmly
"How do you know my power?" the pixie asks shocked
"How do you have a version of it?" the leader of the coven asks
"Maybe we should find somewhere private? Where this pack can change to human and can talk freely? It is only a suggestion. But I must warn you attack any of my siblings and I WILL attack with vengeance", I warn
"How do we know this is not a trap?" the blonde female asks
"It is up to you. But my words are true. After all we have imprinted so we wouldn't harm you lot anyway maybe just freeze you but never kill you", I say
They look shocked we know about imprinting.
"There is a clearing not too far from here. We can discuss this there", my bronze haired god says
"After you", I say smiling
"Are you sure about this sis", Cassie asks
"They will not harm us unless attacked. We will run with you", I say
"In the middle of all us", the scared one says
"Very well. But just so you know your numbers combined are not enough to beat us", I say
"Is that a threat?" the scared on growls as well as the wolves
"Just stating a fact. Now are we going or not? Who is going to lead the way?" I ask
"Follow me", my bronze haired god says taking off to the south
I can tell everyone expected us to change to our wolf forms. But instead we run alongside them. Just as fast. Not our normal speed. We would be far in front of them if we did use our normal speed.
Soon we appear in a clearing. It was nice enough for a chat.
"Ok so this conversation is not one sided can you wolves change into your human forms? My sisters and brother have imprinted on some of you. I am guessing you know about imprinting?" I ask
They nod. Some seemed to be having a debate in their minds. I don't tune in. I could but didn't what to hear their thoughts at the moment. Suddenly all the wolves go into the woods. The alpha, beta and third looked at us with hate. The others were impassive as we haven't attacked yet. And the knowledge of the imprinting. Someone must tell the imprinting legend right. But there was a mistake with it that I noticed in their minds. They have only ever heard it called imprinting. In my day it was called golden bonded. Must have changed with the times.
"Oh they can't change forms without shredding their clothes", I say
"They can't?" Evelynn asks curiously as they appear
"Where do they put their clothes then?" Matt asks
I smack him hard around the head.
"Don't ask stupid questions", I say
"I was just asking", Matt says with a pout
"Knowing you it would lead to something more", Lerida mutters
Cassie, Ash and Evie snicker at Matt's face. Pandora, Sasha and Cesar smile. The coven of vampires and the wolves were looking at us in shock at our normal conversation.
"I hope this is not rude. But what are you all?" the leader asks
"What is rude is not knowing names. I am Isabella. But please call me Bella", I say
"I am Lerida", Lerida says
"I am Matthew. Call me Matt. Matthew is my trouble name", Matt says coursing them to laugh
"I am Evelynn. Call me Evie", Evelynn says
"I am Cassandra. Call me Cassie", Cassandra says
"I am Cassie's twin Ashieldr. Call me Ash", Ashieldr says
"I am Terra", Terra says
"I am Pandora", Pandora says
"I am her twin Cesar", Cesar says
"I am the youngest my name is Sashandra. You can call me Sasha", Sasha says
"I apologies for being rude. My name is Carlisle Cullen and I am the leader of the Olympic Coven", Carlisle says
I perk up I know that name. It is possible. I will have to ask later.
"I am Esme Cullen his mate", Esme says with a motherly smile
"I am Emmett Cullen and this is my mate Rosalie Hale", Emmett says
I perk up again. Rosalie Hale. That name I would know anywhere. She has grown into a beautiful young woman since I last saw her and that's why none of us placed her till now. That explains one colour of the bond thread that connected us.
"I am Alice Cullen why can't I see any of you?" Alice asks
"Alice calm down. We don't know them yet", the scared one says with a southern accent
Mmm. That voice not with the southern tint is familiar. My siblings sense it too.
"Isn't he the Major that helped us near Houston?" Evelynn thinks
I look at him again. It was possible. The man who helped us was human. But down there in Texas newborn wars were out of control at that time. It would have been easy to turn him.
"What was his name?" Matt asks
"Jason no. Jack…no", Lerida thinks
"James?" Ashieldr thinks
"John?" Cassie thinks
"It is Jasper", I think suddenly placing him
"I am Jasper Hale, Alice is my mate", Jasper says feeling our curiosity and interest
"Edward Cullen", my imprint says
I look into his thoughts and surprised. He did notice me. But was denying the bond because he felt himself too unworthy. Mmm I might have to work with him a bit before I tell him.
"That is that vampires now what about the Pack?" I ask
"Sam Uley Alpha", Sam growls, "Beasts, abominations"
My sibling in and have to hold in growls at the thoughts. They shouldn't judge people before they know them. It was the same with his beta Jared Cameron and third Paul Lahote. Lerida's imprint was named Jacob Black, Cassandra's imprint was Embry Call, Ashieldr's imprint was Colin Littlesea, Evelynn's imprint was Seth Clearwater and Matt's imprint was Leah Clearwater. Terra's imprint was Quil Ateara V, Cesar's imprint was Rachael Black, Pandora was Brady Fuller's imprint.
"It is a pleasure to meet all of you. We will answer the questions we can. But you must understand it is hard for us. We have only ever had each other", I say
I feel their symphony from all of them but the three hostile wolves. I wonder what tribe they are from. I must ask later.
"You don't have parents?" Esme asks
"No", we all say
"Been a long time since we have had parents", Matt says
"You poor dears", Esme says
"We have had each other", Cassie says
"So what are you all? If you don't find that rude", Carlisle asks
"What about you try and guess? What have you noticed about us?" I ask smiling
"From looking at you all now I would say vampire. But there is the fact you were all bigger then wolves before that. But a wolf I think. So I am not sure", Carlisle says
"We are unique to put a word to what we are. I believe the best way of explaining it is that we are hybrids. Part Vampire, Part Werewolf, Part Fae", I say
The look stunned and shocked. We look amused until the three hostile wolves start.
"Not possible. You all should not exist", Sam says
"Well we do. We are living proof. If you can all us that", Matt says grinning
"Matthew!" I scold
"Come on it was funny", Matt says
"How are you all hybrids as you put it?" Carlisle asks curiously
"Well it is our parents. Our father was a werewolf. Our mother a vampire and fae we called it then. You would either call it Fey or Faerie now", I say
"Vampires can't have children!" Rosalie says
I look at her and sense her desperate need for a child.
"Our mother could. Unique. She was one of a kind back then", I say
"How old are you all?" Emmett asks getting a smack from Alice
We laugh.
"You know it is rude to ask a lady her age", I say with a smile
"He didn't mean to be rude…", Esme starts
"We are not offended", Lerida says smiling
"It is just you wouldn't believe our age", I say
"I am sure it will be fine", Carlisle says with a kindly smile
"Well let's see if we can figure it out. What year is this?" I ask
My siblings and I don't pay attention to days or years we pay attention to centuries", I say
They look shocked.
"It is 2006", Edward says
I smile, "Well that is the 21st century AD. So we can make judgement from there"
"It was way before the start of the British Empire", Cassie says
"It was definably before the Achaemeniad Empire", Evelynn noticing some confused looks, "The First Persian Empire 550BC. The King was Cyrus the Great. Great man"
"It was before what you call it…Ancient Roman Empire in 753 BC", Ashieldr says
"Definably before Ancient Greek Empire in 800BC", Lerida says
"And the Ottoman Empire in 1300BC", I say
The Cullen's and wolves eyes widen when I say that
"It was before Ancient Egypt", Matt says
"You only remember that because you had a thing for Cleopatra", Lerida says rolling her eyes
"I did not have a thing for Cleopatra!" Matt says
"Didn't she want to make you her consort?" Evie says smirking
"I would never had gone through with it!" Matt says
"Didn't stop you from liking her", Cassie says giggling
"And day dreaming about her", Ashieldr says giggling
"Ok lets figure out our age before they get sick of us", I say with a smile
"I will get you for mentioning that. I have imprinted you know", Matt says lowly to Ash and Cassie
"Now it was close to the Babylonian Empire. King Kadashman-Enlil ruled around then", Lerida says
"Give or take a decade I would say the 40th BC Century or the 39th BC they were born", I say
Carlisle's eyes widen and so do Edward's at the mention of the Century.
"What is the year?" Seth asks curious
"It is a period around 3200BC", Evelynn says as their eyes widen,
"No. I think it might have been the Stone Age a period called the Neolithic or New Stone Age. That was before the bronze age by the way. So I would say we were born in anywhere between 4000BC and 3200BC. So it is give or take a few centuries. We were part of the Italic Tribe or Illyrians", I say
"Boy your all old", Emmett says getting smacked by Rosalie
We chuckle.
"We get that", Cassie says
"So you don't measure time the way we do?" Jacob asks
"No. We rather pay attention to centuries that years unless we have stayed in a place", I say
"You have house?" Esme asks
We look at each other.
"No we don't. We don't really settle. We basically wolves full time. The few times we have settled I have managed to get us a place to stay", I say
"Oh dears. You will be coming home with us", Esme says sternly
"We will talk about it", I say looking at me siblings
"We will stay. We can't be away from our imprints. We can't take them away from their families", Cassie thinks
"No matter how hostile Sam, Paul and Jared are", Evie says
"I want to know more about them", Matt says, "I feel connected to the big guy Emmett. But I only knew one Emmett in Tennessee. And he was a kid when we left"
"So what do we do?" Lerida, Pan, Cesar, Sasha, Terra, Cassie and Ashieldr ask
"We change subject for now. Get more comfortable", I think
I then say out loud, "You all but Edward and the pack seem familiar. You understand living us long as us we know a few people"
"Will you tell us your story and maybe country?" Evie asks
"Why?" Carlisle asks
"Because we think we know you", I say
There was a shocked silence. My siblings look amused. I wonder if they will do this the easy way or the hard way?
