Recap: "Move back home with me. It's safe now, I promise. We can raise your baby together." Lola said.

"Mom…I…" Dekan said, biting her lip.

……

..

Sam, Jake, and Embry were are staring at Dekan who had gotten up and walked to the kitchen to talk on her cell phone. She was trying to whisper but it wasn't working; werewolves have superb hearing. Embry and Jake quickly looked over at Sam when Dekan mentioned his name in reply. Embry stood up and headed for the kitchen when Dekan held up a finger to him, signaling him to stay put. Dekan slipped outside, sitting on the steps.

"Mom…I…I can't move back home." Dekan said, her voice thick.

"Why not baby? I heard what that boy did to you and its okay, honey, I'll help you raise the baby and you don't ever have to see him again." Lola said.

"I don't want to leave, Mom. Embry and I-" Dekan said, but was once again cut off.

"Dekan, please…I've only got a few more months with you until you go off to college or whatever you're doing. I can only stay here for one more day before I have to go back home for work." Lola said.

"I know mom…I…I just can't go with you. I'm not going to keep Embry from seeing our baby. We're back together, Mom. I love him and he loves me and we're going to be a family." Dekan said.

"So he broke your heart and just because he comes crawling back finding out that he got you pregnant you're going to take him back?" Lola asked, surprised.

"It's not like that, Mom!" Dekan said.

"Don't you dare defend him. Now Dekan, come home with me and I'll help you raise your baby and that boy can just think about what he's missing and giving up by being like that." Lola said.

"Mom! I am not leaving! I love Embry and he loves me and nothing is going to make me leave him!" Dekan said, getting angry.

"Nothing, Dekan? Are you sure about that?" Lola asked.

"Mom…" Dekan said, biting her lip.

"Dekan." Lola replied.

Alice stared blankly at the wall, the bowl in her hands dropped and forgotten. Jasper turned around, seeing Alice and seeing that she was having a vision. Edward walked into the room, staring at Alice, his eyes going wide.

"What? Edward, what is it?" Jasper asked, his tone worried.

Edward held up his hand, reading Alice's vision from her mind. He was shaking his head slowly, closing his eyes.

"Jazz…sit down." Edward said calmly, motioning for Emmett and Rosalie to come in the room. Emmett took a seat beside Jasper while Rosalie sat on the other side. Alice came out of her trance, staring at Edward.

"Alice…do you want to tell him?" Edward asked.

"Jazzy…do you want the good news or bad news first?" Alice asked, kneeling in front of Jasper.

"Good." Jasper replied, still looking a bit scared.

"Well, the good news is that Embry's mom lied, making Dekan think that Embry had broken up with her and vice versa for Embry. So they figured that out when she found Embry in the forest after Sam and Jake beat the hell out of him." Alice said, biting her lip.

"Okay…what's the bad news?" Jasper asked, feeling Emmett's grip on him tighten. Alice took a deep breath, even though she didn't need to.

"Dekan's mom is forcing her to move back with her. Eight hours away. She's going to use the courts and the law if she has to." Alice said, moving out of the way quickly.

Jasper's growl filled the room as Emmett's hold on his arm increased. Jasper stood up, slinging Emmett off of his arm and through the living room wall. Edward stood in front of Jasper, trying to contain him. Jasper growled and easily threw Edward out of his way, sending him crashing through the coffee table.

"Jasper, no!" Alice cried, trying to pull him back.

"Alice…move." Jasper said calmly, heading for the door.

"You can't! It will violate the treaty!" Alice said, grabbing his arm.

"FUCK THE TREATY!" Jasper said, picking Alice up and tossing her on the couch, running out of the door and to La Push.

Lola may be Dekan's mom for all intents and purposes, and she may have legal control over Dekan until she was 18, but she was not going to take Dekan away from him!

……

..

Sam, Jake, and Embry all huddled by the door, trying to listen to Dekan's phone conversation. So far, they had figured out that Dekan was talking to her mother, and was not agreeing with whatever her mother was saying. Embry started getting nervous, running his hand through his hair enough times to make Edward's nervous habit look like nothing.

"Can you hear anything?" Embry asked, looking at Sam and Jake. They each shook their head.

Soon, they saw Dekan shut her phone and lean her head against the railing on the steps. Embry opened the door and walked outside, leaving Jake and Sam standing in the doorframe. Embry sat down beside Dekan, pulling her closer to him. Dekan looked over at Embry, her eyes glossy.

"Dekan…baby….what's wrong?" Embry whispered, feeling a sore spot in his chest.

"Mom…" Dekan replied, tears rolling down her cheeks.

"What?" Embry asked, the spot in his chest getting worse.

"She's making me move back with her…" Dekan whispered, seeing Embry's face fall.

"No! She can't! I won't let her! You're mine! My Imprint! My Dekan! You're carrying my baby! She can't take you from me!" Embry said, his voice cracking at the end.

"She's going to use the law to get her way…until I turn 18, by law I'm under her control." Dekan whispered, burying her head in Embry's chest as Embry pulled her into his lap and rocked her.

Sam looked over at Jake, who looked solemn. Sam walked the couple of steps to stand behind Embry and Dekan, Jake just behind him.

"The pack is going to fight for you both." Sam said, stepping past them, Jake following.

Jasper was running through Forks in the forest as to avoid the chance of any humans seeing him. He was close to Forks when he heard Alice calling after him.

"JASPER! Jasper, wait!" Alice called, trying to catch up to him.

"They're not taking her"! Jasper called out, running faster. He could sense the border of Forks and La Push drawing closer.

"Jasper! You know about the treaty, they'll come after us!" Alice yelled. Still Jasper did not slow down.

Jasper ran through the border of La Push, Alice stopping. Jasper kept running until he was out of Alice's sight, trying to scent out Dekan through the scent of all the werewolves. Jasper stopped at the edge of the forest, closing his eyes.

"What in the hell are you doing here, leech?" Leah asked, growling.

"Where's Dekan? Tell me now!" Jasper demanded, matching and beating her growl. Leah stared at him for a moment before shrugging.

"I don't know…why?" Leah asked.

"She's in trouble and she needs me!" Jasper said, taking off running again when he caught Dekan's scent.

Leah followed after Jasper, running. Soon, Seth, Quil, Jared, and Paul were running after Jasper, growling at him because he broke the treaty. Jasper ran to where Dekan's scent was strongest—Embry's house. Before he could reach it however, he was stopped by Sam and Jake.

"What in the hell are you doing breaking the treaty?!" Sam asked, growling.

"Move, werewolf." Jasper said, trying to get around Sam.

"You broke the treaty, leech! I should order an attack!" Sam said, shaking in anger.

"Dekan is going to be taken away and you're worried about some stupid fucking treaty?!" Jasper shouted, hissing at Sam.

"How in the hell did you know?" Jake asked.

"Alice saw it. I'm coming to keep her mother from taking her back, treaty be damned. Now if you want to order an attack, order it on me. The others have nothing to do with it. But if you do order me attacked, you better be ready to lose some of your pack because there is no fucking way I am going down without a fight and no way I am going down with protecting my family." Jasper said, glaring at Sam.

Sam and Jasper stood toe to toe, staring each other down. Jake, Leah, Quil, Paul, and Jared flanked Sam in case of an attack.

"She's with Embry." Sam finally said, stepping aside.

Jasper nodded and ran the short distance to Embry's house, not even bothering with knocking. He ignored Sadie's yelling and shouting and found Dekan in Embry's room, being held and comforted by Embry. Embry looked up, seeing Jasper. Dekan also looked up and moved from Embry's arms to Jasper's. Jasper wrapped his arms around Dekan gently, letting her cry.

"They're not going to take you away. We'll find a way out of this, I swear it." Jasper whispered, looking at Embry. "And I never swear anything that I don't follow through with."

……

..

Jasper's cell phone rang a few minutes later. He opened it and whispered a "hello". It was Carlisle.

"Alice just told us. Jasper, you broke the treaty!" Carlisle said, his voice frantic.

"It's okay. Sam knows. If they attack, it'll only be me." Jasper replied.

"Alice also told us what was going on with Dekan. Do you all have a plan?" Carlisle asked, worried.

"No…not yet. Do you all have any ideas? We're running out of time. Dekan's mom's plane leaves tomorrow.

"She's under her mom's control for what, another year or so?" Carlisle asked.

"Yeah, a year. The baby will be born by then…we'll have missed everything." Jasper said, Dekan laying back down on the bed and snuggling with Embry, who wrapped his arms around her.

"Shit…" Carlisle said. Jasper was a bit shocked; he'd never heard Carlisle curse before.

"Whatever happened to the days when 13 was the legal age in this country?" Jasper commented, sighing.

"Jasper…you just gave me a great idea. I have to go check something; I'll call you back later." Carlisle said, hanging up.

Jasper hung up as well, rubbing his face. They needed a plan to keep Dekan here. He hadn't come all this way and been through all this hell to lose Dekan now. She was his only living relative that he knew of. She called him dad. He wasn't about to give her up. He met Embry's eyes and nodded. Embry wasn't about to give Dekan up now, not after everything they had been through trying to be together.

"I guess I'll go." Jasper said, heading for the door. Dekan raised up, her heart racing.

"No…Dad…don't go…please…don't leave." Dekan whispered, looking like she was about to cry again. Jasper looked to Embry, who nodded. Jasper sat on the small chair beside the bed and took Dekan's hand in his.

Author's note: Awww! Gosh! Why does everyone have to be mean to Dekan? She and Embry just can't catch a break! Le sigh. Will Dekan be horsed back home? Or will they figure out a way for her to stay in La Push? Draaama! So, what do you think? Please don't hate me! Leave me some fantastic reviews! How about this…if I get 10 reviews, I'll post the next chapter TOMORROW NIGHT! Ooo! Now you gotta find people to read and review!
Also, I need a beta. As you know, my beta has not been online in…over a week. I need a beta. Anyone up for the job? Send me a pm!
Finally, I got a note about disclaimers. If you think I own Twilight…then wow. Seriously. I'm not Stephenie Meyer. If I was, would I be writing my own fan fiction? I think not. I think it'd be pretty self evident by now that I'm not a millionaire. I'm not even a hundred-aire. So yeah, the only people that belong to me are Dekan, Lola, and Noni. And, you know, all those people I made up on the family tree. Don't sue me. You might get like 10 bucks out of the deal. You could go on a rinky dink little shopping spree at the local dollar store. That's about it I think. Mwaaaah!
