In the weeks that followed, Seth never left his room. Not for food, water, or other necessities. The reality of Jacob rejecting him had caused Seth to fall into a deep depression that no one can seem to break him out of.

" He still hasn't come out?" asked Sam

"No and I'm worried. What should we do? This isn't healthy."

" I know Leah. But unless Jacob accepts Seth's imprint, he's going to stay like this."

Leah looked at Sam with both confusion and worry in her eyes.

"We HAVE to do something. He's going to die in there if we don't do something."

"I know. The tribe's first Spirit Chief, Taha Aki, went through something similar when his wife died. He imprinted on her and at her death he stayed by her body for weeks, not moving an inch. He eventually went into the forest and was never seen again. It's assumed that he perished."

At these words Leah walked out onto the front porch. The sky outside had an overcast, signaling oncoming rain. The greyness of the sky did little to lighten the situation.

"Maybe we can convince Jake to at least come and talk with Seth?"

Sam shook his head.

"Having Jacob around may only make the situation worse. Jacob hates Seth right now and I doubt he cares about his current state."

"We gotta try."

At that moment Leah phased and took off into the forest, racing towards the Black family's house.

Leah was drenched in rain by the time she arrived at the Black house. She met Billy Black on the front porch of the home.

"Hello Leah. What can I do for you?"

Leah let out a high, non threatening whine which seemed to confuse Billy quite a bit.

"Uh... right. I'm assuming you're here for Jacob?"

Leah whined at the statement, becoming more excited.

"Well I'm sorry but he isn't here. He's over at Bella and Edward's."

Leah snarled at this and took off in the direction of their home.

Leah arrived at their home and proceeded to burst through the door, alarming the vampires inside.

"Leah? What the hell was that for?!" asked an alarmed Bella.

"She wants to know where Jacob is." translated Edward.

"He just left, why?" Bella replied.

" She wants to know where he went. She says it's about Seth."

"He said he was going home."

Leah, growing more irritated, left the Cullen's house and again raced off in the direction of the Black family house.

Leah arrived at the Black family home with Edward, Bella, and Renesmee arriving shortly after.

"Leah! What's going on? What's wrong with Seth?" asked a now worried Bella.

"Jake! We need to talk. It's urgent!" Leah called out in telepathy.

Jacob appeared from behind the house, confused as to the sudden arrival.

"Jake, oh thank god! You need to get over to our house now!"

"What? What is it?" Jake asked, his anxiety growing.

"It's Seth! He's really messed up. We need you to come and talk to him."

Jake rolled his eyes at the statement and turned around, preparing to leave.

Suddenly Leah launched herself at Jake, knocking him down and pinning him to the ground.

"For once stop thinking about yourself! Seth needs you!" Leah roared at Jake.

"Yeah, well guess what? I don't care what "Seth needs." "

Leah snapped her jaws just millimeters from Jacob's face.

"You listen and you listen good you son of a bitch! My brother needs you. And you're going help him."

Jake remained silent at the words but suddenly Renesmee spoke.

"Jacob, Maybe you should at least go and check on him. It can't hurt."

She seemingly convinced him as at that moment, Jake decided to go check on Seth.

Everyone arrived at the Uley/Clearwater home. Leah now appearing in human form led Jacob to Seth's room.

"He's in here. Let me warn you now, if you do anything to harm him, I will end you. Alpha or not."

Jake entered Seth room. The room was almost completely dark except for the small amount of light coming from outside.

He took a seat on the edge of the bed and for the first time in 4 weeks Seth stirred.

One word left his lips.

"Jacob."
