Chapter 21

Jordan's POV

Emmett kept bouncing on the spot excitingly in the garden, shaking his arms and legs and rolling his neck in preparation. I was walking slowly from one edge of the garden to the other, my eyes focused on Emmett's ones.

"Come on Jordan," Emmett taunted, "bring it."

I turned back around and started walking again in the opposite direction.

This was pathetic, I had been doing this for ages, trying to make myself in the right state of mind in order to transform. I wasn't angry, so I was trying to transform more naturally, controllably, and when I wanted to. In this case so I could wrestle Emmett.

When I had arrived in the house I at first thought it would be awkward, and uncomfortable, all of them looking at me differently because I had transformed, but none of them were like that. Instead Esme had walked straight to me and hugged me, even though my skin felt like it was on fire, and according to the others I stunk.

Even Rosalie came up to me and gave me a hug. I thought she had some sort of distaste with us wolves, but I guess now I know it's mainly dad.

After I helped unpack my stuff, Emmett was insistent that we had a game in the back yard. At first I was unsure. I wasn't capable of transforming at my own command, and plus would I control my natural instincts when put face to face with a vampire, and actually fight.

That was what I was worried about, and I think that is why subconsciously I couldn't transform at this moment.

"Seriously Jordan I'm ageing here." Emmett joked.

I stopped pacing and faced him. Believing I was ready, Emmett crouched down and prepared for an 'attack'.

"Go easy on him." Mum said worried and I rolled my eyes. Everyone had come outside to see me transform, well that's what I think. I think perhaps they want to see Emmett get beaten too.

"Just relax Jordan, let your natural instincts take over." Dad helped. But that's what I'm afraid of doing. I thought.

"Ooh yeah," Emmett encouraged, "Lose control, follow your instincts, all that. Imagine I'm a bad evil vampire."

I was still unsure, but seeing as Emmett was alright with it, and plus he was so massive and bulky I probably wouldn't beat him, I started jogging and then sprinting across the lawn and towards Emmett.

Follow your instincts. Follow your instincts…

The blood was running through my veins faster, and my heart thumped harder. My muscles weren't straining, but felt as if they could expand and work better, for my whole body to improve, but it was waiting for me to allow it. Follow your instincts.

I took another breath and the strong scent of vampire filled my nose, the urge to expand my body grew as the natural reflex to this smell was causing my body to change.

Follow your instincts. I guess now as I charged towards Emmett it seemed pretty simple, just to will my body to change, allow it to transform. So I did.

I pushed harder on my legs and brought my arms to the floor, my hands turning into paws on contact with the ground. I felt my face change into the face of the wolf, my body transforming into the larger more powerful creature.

I watched from my improved eyesight as Emmett slowly stood up and looked at me with his eyes wide and his mouth partly open. I could faintly hear the gasps of the other members of my family as they saw me transform before their eyes.

My distance between Emmett and I decreased, and it was as though Emmett had just realised a large wolf was charging towards him as he crouched down again and prepared to defend himself. Knowing a big guy like Emmett was getting ready to defend himself made me pretty happy with myself.

I growled and snapped at him as I got closer, to see if I got more of a reaction from him. His eyes widened a bit as I finally reached him. I wasn't going to bite him remembering what a bite done to a them. Mum had shown me the bites Bella had received before we were born, and they looked pretty painful.

I had intended to shoulder barge him to the floor, but by the time I had gotten to where Emmett was, he was no longer there, but instead there was an empty space. I stumbled a bit as my target was no longer there, but I composed myself and turned around to see Emmett were I had been standing before with a smirk on his face.

I crouched lower and prepared to pounce but Emmett quickly dashed to different parts of the garden. I was amazed as I watched him move at his unnatural speed, yet still follow him round as if he was moving at a normal pace a human could see.

Once he stopped I immediately sprinted towards him, my paws were digging into the ground and pulling up the earth with each step I made. Emmett noticed me charging and started to run around me. I thought this guy wanted to wrestle not have a run around.

I heard Edward laugh from the sidelines so he must have heard what I said. "Jord I think Emmett is actually scared for once."

"Am not." Emmett responded, and I turned quickly to where I heard the sound of his voice, but narrowly missed him by a few centimetres.

This continued for a while, but eventually the next time I got close to reaching him, I just settled to sticking my paw out in front of him. I smiled when I felt him make contact with my leg, his footing faltered and I watched as he tripped and crashed into the ground next to me.

He lay down on the floor face up. I moved quickly over to him and placed my paw over his chest so he wouldn't get back up. I flashed him a wolfy grin and said in my mind, does this mean I win?

"Emmett, do you give up?" Edward asked with the hint of a smile in his voice. Emmett scowled at him then looked back up at me, lifted up his head and then whispered "Beginners luck." I nodded my head in sarcastic agreement and lifted my paw off of him so he could stand up. He brushed any dirt from his clothes and then made his way back to everyone, "I, uh, I let him win." He said to the others.

"Sure you did Em," Bella quickly said, "Was it the same with me and that arm wrestle?" She asked innocently and Emmett scowled again.

The others started laughing at Emmett's misfortune and I even heard my own barking laugh over the others. I looked up to the family who were all looking at me now in amazement. I looked passed them to the glass window (which we seem to have at the back wall of nearly every house) and stared into the reflection of myself.

I saw eleven bodies facing away from the window, beyond them, a large wolf stood within the garden. Its fur was long and blowing gently in the breeze of the wind. A brownish, russet coloured patch started at the top of its head, moving to his ears which were perked up, and moving to the brown patch on its back, and then continuing on the top part of its tail. The rest of its body gradually changed from the russet colour, to an arctic white which covered the rest of its body.

I was amazed to know that the creature staring back at me through the reflection of the window was infact me. Powerful, large, dangerous, and in dire need of a haircut.

* * * * * *

This was so cool.

Being a wolf was awesome.

I guess now, running freely in the forest, the wind whipping my face, and blowing my newly cut fur, I can't see why anyone didn't want this to happen to them. For most of my life this is what I looked forward to, this new sense of freedom, the new improvements to the performance of my body. For me all I could see was the good points of being a wolf, I don't think any bad ones crossed my mind.

I wanted to personally have a look in the forest that surrounded our home. Mum was a bit concerned about me running alone, but I tried to enforce the fact that I was no longer human, and I was perfectly capable of protecting myself. Well, I still didn't know how to kill a vampire, so I was looking forward to that lesson, whilst also secretly hoping I wouldn't run into any on my little trip.

It was different to see the forest now from this perspective, from the way I could smell and distinguish the various smells from the earth and the flowers, to watching creatures – which would usually only be slightly wary in the presence of a human – scamper off in fear.

All this just made me feel better. In comparison to the harsh words Caitlin said to me earlier about me being plain and human, watching these animals scared of me just made me forget those words and enjoy the new abilities I had.

I couldn't wait to try them all out, well the ones that would relate to me fighting, but the speed was already an exhilarating rush and I was loving it. Plus the fact it was close to freezing temperature outside and it wasn't affecting me at all made me enjoy the aspects of being a wolf even more.

I guess now if I think about whether I would have preferred having the vampire gene over the wolf gene, then I think I'd say no. Not because I had only tried one side, but because the aspects were relatively similar. I mean we both had incredible speed, and on the odd occasion I've even heard we can outrun them. We both have strength; even though theirs is slightly better we are still strong. We can both live for eternity – as long as we keep transforming. The only thing I think I could be slightly jealous of is the fact various vampires are able to have an ability. I knew it wouldn't happen to me, but I couldn't help my mind wander to what it would be like if I was able to have a power, if part of a vampire gene remained in my system and allowed me to have a power…

I shook my head at my stupidity. As if that would ever happen to me, it would be impossible.

I was re-circling the house, a favour Carlisle allowed me to do. To create a bit of an invisible border line of my scent to provide a warning to anyone who enters our 'territory'. It would be gone over again by dad or some of the vamps to seal it a bit more. Just to provide others with a stronger warning of how many people lived there.

I had completed the cycle and was going around again when I heard a voice in my head. Not my subconscious but rather my dad. His voice was quite stern and I was worried that I may perhaps be in trouble.

Jordan, I want you to come home right now please.

I followed right away, something in my mind also making me obey those orders. I turned off my previous route and sprinted back into the direction of the house, reaching the house within a minute or so and saw dad standing in the garden waiting for me after transforming back. I stopped quickly behind a tree and transformed back into human form and putting on a pair of shorts.

I walked across the garden and dad motioned for me to go inside. "Your mother and I want a word with you."

I swallowed nervously and followed him into the house.

* * * * * *

I was now sitting on the sofa, Caitlin sitting next to me, our parents sitting on the sofa opposite us. Both of us had our heads down avoiding our parents' eyes as we knew what this conversation would bring.

It was silent for a while until dad broke the silence. "You know why we want to talk to you."

Caitlin and I both shared a quick glance at each other then looked back up. "Is it the possibility of me getting a new guitar?" I asked hopefully, causing Caitlin to snicker from besides me.

"We need to talk about your behaviour, especially from this afternoon."

Caitlin and I both sighed as mum continued, "You shouldn't be arguing the way you are. Almost every conversation between the two of you leads to fighting, and today was a perfect example of how out of hand these things get."

"The both of you are extremely lucky," dad continued, "you were both in danger of harming each other today, and I don't think either of you realised how much of a risk you brought to each other."

"It wasn't exactly my fault." I muttered, but dad heard me and quickly answered, "Of course, you didn't know you were going to change today Jordan, however the fact is you were both fighting, and I presume you will continue to do so in the future, but you both have to realise now how much power you both have."

Caitlin and I shared another glance at each other and then both looked down again. I guess we both are as dangerous to the other. Caitlin with her ability and vampire-like qualities, and me with my new found strength and wolf properties.

"So this is a warning to the two of you. You both can cause serious harm to the other, and even worse you could even harm someone else. There's no point in me asking you not to fight as I know it's a lost cause, but I want you to promise me you won't hurt each other, and to apologise again."

We both were about to protest but mum held up her hand to stop and do as she said.

"I promise." Caitlin said and mum looked over to me and I answered a quick, "Me too."

"And…" she hinted.

"I'm sorry for saying those mean things to you." I started, looking over to Caitlin.

"I'm sorry again for destroying your guitar, and I'm also sorry for saying what I said. I guess you're not completely boring."

"Completely boring?"

"Yeah, I guess your fight with Uncle Em, and the fact you're now a wolf boosted your coolness by a bit." She said as she stood up and left the room giving me no time to defend myself. Mum soon followed leaving me and dad alone in the room.

It was a comfortable silence for a while, and all I could think about was what would my transformation do to my dad, and the current pack, which I assumed was still around. Seeing as now was a good time to ask, I broke the silence with an almost inaudible question.

"What's going to happen to you now?" I asked, looking up at him.

"What do you mean?"

"Well now 'cause I've changed, what'll happen with you? I mean, it's not like you can't stop doing what you do can you? And what about the pack?"

"Jordan," he started, leaning forward so he rested his elbows on his knees, "I know you understand I can't stop transforming. If I do I'll start ageing and as much as I don't want to become an old man, I would very much like as much time as I can with your mother.

"As you know I occasionally visit the pack down in La Push, even though we have every right to just move down there ourselves and I could lead the pack constantly, however we've chosen to stay with this family because the bonds within this family are as strong as the bonds in the wolf pack, and allow us to live the way we do. Well except the bond between me and blondie, that's not very strong at all."

I snickered as he continued, "This family loves you and your sister a lot Jordan, and will support you in any, well in most decisions that you want to make. There are more than ten people living in this family, yet as much as it would probably hurt them, if someone wanted to leave and continue their family somewhere else then they would most likely support them.

"This applies to you also Jordan. This transformation has provided you with the choice to return to the pack, and claim your place as Alpha as that is what role has been given to you." He looked me up and down briefly before he added, "Give it a few more years though, I don't think you've grown up enough yet."

He smiled at me and I returned it, "Think about it Jord, it's your decision now." He said as he got up and walked out the room, pausing briefly at the door, "But don't misinterpret it as us wanting to kick you out, that most definitely won't occur till a couple of years." He left the room leaving me alone with my thoughts.

It most certainly was an important decision to make.

* * * * * * *

Stay and live the rest of my life with my family, or leave and join the pack back up in La Push. That was the decision I was given regarding what I was going to do for the rest of my life. I guess at first I thought it would be pretty simple to decide, however once I was alone, I started thinking of different reasons why I shouldn't do that particular choice.

Firstly when considering moving to live with the rest of the pack, I thought that would be my better option. Live my life a bit more, become Alpha of the pack, kill a bunch of vampires, it sounded pretty cool. But then my mind wandered to the downsides of moving.

At first I thought about the fact I would imprint on someone sometime in the future, and I thought of that as an advantage to moving; I would be able to see the girl I am meant to spend the rest of my life with, and share a love that I've seen my dad share with mum.

However then I remembered that mum was half-vampire half-human. Dad was able to imprint on her because she was part human, yet live for eternity with her. But me, what would be the possible chance that I could meet another hybrid who I imprint on. It's not very likely, so that means I would probably imprint on a human. Again that didn't seem so bad, but it was the concept of dying that was scary to me.

Surely if I found the love of my life I would want to grow old with her. And if she died then would I want to spend the rest of my life living without her? Would I actually want to die? Would I want to do that to the family? I mean, I don't know how much I mean all of them but I think some of them would be pretty distraught if they found out I died. Whether it's because of old age or if I happen to die fighting, either way I don't want them to be upset.

So that would lead me onto possibly staying here, but did I honestly want to spend the rest of my life here, moving from one place to another, just us twelve, for the rest of eternity. Would I want to waste a chance in being a part of something that I was born to take a part in?

Back and forth my decision went, and I was totally confused with what I was going to decide.

So I just thought I'd leave it for a while, give myself more time to make my decision. That was why instead of focusing my attention on my decision; I was relaxing in my room watching the television. Well, I was trying to watch TV, but it wasn't holding my attention that much, I couldn't even tell you the score.

I was watching the different players tackling each other when the television seemed to shake infront of me. I continued watching in confusion when it shook again. I leaned forward on the bed to take a closer look when it shook another time.

I climbed off the bed whilst keeping my eyes fixed on the television which shook another time. This time however, I saw that it wasn't the TV itself, but rather the wall behind it. Looking carefully, I could see small movements in the wall caused by something in the next room; Caitlin's room.

I quickly ran out of my door and down the hall to Caitlin's room where I quickly opened the door without knocking.

A flash of orange shot passed the left hand side of my face. I froze on the spot knowing exactly what it was. I turned slowly to see Caitlin looking at something else in the room and not caring at what just nearly happened.

"You know you just nearly hit me?" I told her, and she turned around quickly realising I was in the room. Suddenly she started bouncing on the spot and had this happy look on her face.

"Did you not hear what I just said?" I asked, but she ignored me and seemed to get even more excited.

"I figured it out." She said happily. I still must have had a blank expression on my face as she rolled her eyes and continued, "My power, I figured out how to use it."

I had a quick scan of the room and saw very small piles of dust in random places around the room. "I guess I can see that." I said stepping into the room thinking it was now safe.

"Come here and watch." She said but I stayed still, still doubting her ability. "Just stand behind me." I walked up and stood behind her, my height allowing me to still see what she was doing.

She lifted up her arm, and had it bent at the elbow slightly. Her fist was clenched, but she quickly opened it, revealing a small orb. On closer look, it was indeed just hovering slightly above her palm.

"Cool huh?" She said and I nodded still looking at the orb. She done a quick scan of the room and then stopped and smiled, apparently finding her new target. I looked in the direction she was looking in and saw a small teddy sitting on a shelf.

"Didn't you used to love that bear?" I asked, but it was too late, as she extended her arm and doing an extra movement with her hand, releasing the orb and sending it into the air. Teddy was no more.

"Guess not." I muttered as Caitlin turned back around happily. "Looks like your aiming got better." I said, motioning to the empty place on the shelf where there was a small pile of teddy dust.

Her happy expression suddenly changed and she looked more serious. "Who said I was ever bad at aiming?" She asked and I just shrugged my shoulders.

"Let's see, in all the times I've used my powers I've been able to hit the target; first it was a man." Although she was trying to be serious, (whilst I was also hoping she was messing around with me) when she brought that up I could still see that it upset her. "What else? Oh yeah, then there was Emmett."

I was about to interrupt and tell her that she infact hit a pillow but she held her hand up to stop me, "It was going straight for him, you know it." I didn't answer but she continued. "Then I hit your guitar, then just recently I managed to hit half of the objects in my room, the last one being the teddy. Now I shall ask again, am I bad at aiming?"

I was silent for a while until I said, "Just your vampire reflexes I guess." She huffed but I continued, "Do you want to really test out your aiming?" I said with an idea forming in my head.

Ten minutes later and the two of us were out in the back, standing at opposite ends of the garden facing each other. Besides me, I had a basket full of various objects that I found around the house that I thought Esme wouldn't mind if they got destroyed. Caitlin was standing opposite me with her fist clenched and focused on the objects in the basket.

I put my hand in and grabbed the first object, "Ready?" I asked and Caitlin nodded and concentrated on what I was going to throw. I had managed to grab an empty can, so I don't think anyone would be bothered about its loss. I juggled it in my hands and then threw it as hard as I could up into the air.

Caitlin's eyes watched the can as it soared through the air, estimating the best time to aim for it. A second later she threw out her arm and an orange spark soon followed the can through the air. Caitlin watched in anticipation as it grew closer and closer to the can, and soon it made impact, leaving particles of dust floating back in the air.

"Whoo! I told you so! You cannot deny that was a great shot."

"Yeah I guess it was." I muttered as I picked the next object from the basket. "Ready again?"

"Yes, bring it." She said as she shook her hands and waited for me to throw the next item.

This little target practice continued for I don't know how long, but as I threw a plate in the air, Emmett stepped out of the house and headed towards us.

"Hey what are you guys up to?" He asked as Caitlin managed to hit the plate, again.

"Caitlin's practising how to use her power." I answered for her. On the mention of her power Emmett took a feared look over at Caitlin, and then stepped back warily.

"Yeah, I'll leave you to do that." He said. Carlisle stepped out then followed by Esme and the others, and Emmett continued, "Oh, we're all going hunting right now."

"All of you, even dad?" I asked.

"Yup, you up for it little wolf." He teased.

"No way, I am not ready for that yet; I think I'll stick to my normal, human food thanks."

Emmett snickered at me and then turned to Caitlin, "How about you Cay? Up for a little hunting?"

"Sure." She answered. Emmett then darted off into the woods, and he was soon followed by Rosalie, Alice and Jasper, Carlisle and Esme, Edward and Bella, then Caitlin, dad transformed half-way across the garden and then sprinted into the woods just leaving me and Mum.

"Be careful." She said caringly, giving me a kiss on my forehead, "We'll be back soon." And with that she was off as well leaving me alone in the garden.

Finding nothing of interest to keep me occupied in the garden, I just decided to go inside and relax. Maybe play on our new Playstation, and maybe eating a very large sandwich; I was starving.

I walked in and shut the back door, and made my way to the front room where our plasma TV was, and where the playstation was connected. I put in the newest version of 'Call of Duty' and laid back in the sofa and waited for the game to load.

I must have spent over an hour or so on the game, however even though I had intended for it to relax me, this stupid game was getting on my nerves. I was playing online matches but on several occasions I would just get worked up over a match, or if the stupid person on the screen wouldn't do as I had controlled it to do.

I knew that now it wouldn't take much for me to get angry over something, and something little for me to lose control. So on those several occasions that I got mad at the screen, I would start to tremor because of it, and therefore I had to pause and calm myself down. But the game was pretty addicting, it was hard to stop.

Like now, on the current game I was playing, there was a sniper who kept killing me, and I was getting mad at the fact I kept dying every five seconds. I had managed to avoid him and was creeping up behind him ready to kill him, when somehow he must have realised I was there as he quickly turned around and started shooting at the character. I pressed the button on the controller to attack back but it didn't respond and I died, consequently losing the match for our team.

I was fuming. This stupid game, with the non-working controller, to the stupid guy on the screen was just building up and in a fit of anger I threw the controller pad away from me.

At the same time I through the pad away, a tingling feeling coursed through my hand and it was as though I felt something leave my hand. It was then that I saw a flash of orange. The same, similar orange spark that I had seen just recently shooting out of Caitlin's hand.

I watched shocked, scared, and frozen in my seat as the pad first smashed the screen of the television, but was then followed by the orange spark that I presumed had come from my hand; that or Caitlin was standing behind me playing a mean joke.

It was like slow motion, as it followed in the same direction as the pad and hitting the screen. It was a bit like déjà vu as I watched the television react the same way it did with Caitlin.

The television exploded into tiny pieces, not the size of dust like with Caitlin's ability, but rather into little chunk like pieces. As I watched in horror at what I was doing, I didn't expect the added effects that spark had which differed from Caitlin's.

I had expected it to just crumble to dust, however as the pieces of the television went into different directions, each piece was suddenly covered with an orange flame. The flame burnt the pieces of the television and sent the particles of black ash to float back down to the floor.

My body was frozen in shock as I stared upon what remained. Black ash was scattered in various places around one central place where the television previously stood, small wisps of smoke were rising slowly from the ash.

My arm was still outstretched in the same position it was moments before. Slowly, I turned my palm face up and brought it closer to my face. My eyes were unblinking as I looked at my unmarked flesh on my hand. I looked up from my hand to the empty space infront of me. Back and forth I looked, still unbelieving that I had just destroyed our television, or did I just set it on fire?

I shut my eyes and hoped that if I opened them it was actually a dream.

Please let it be a dream. I fell asleep whilst playing, I didn't destroy our TV with an ability which we all believed I wouldn't have. I am human, I am human, this is a dream.

I opened one eye carefully hoping to see the plasma in all its glory, but I got nervous again as I looked at the same scene infront of me.

I stood up and starting pacing anxiously infront of the couch. What was I going to do when they all returned? I could clean up the ash, but then it's not like they wouldn't notice a big, empty space where the TV had been. I run my hands through my hair and gripped onto them distressed.

As soon as I decided to clean up my mess and deal with the others, I heard the back door close.

"Jordan?" I heard dad call, followed by a number of footsteps as they made there way through the house. I looked nervously back to the pile of ash, and stood infront of as much as I could and tried to put a smile on my face.

"Yeah I'm here." I shouted back, then realising my mistake knowing I was leading them to the front room. I was about to step out of the room when Emmett stepped in, followed by the others. I straightened up and smiled at them.

"Hey." I greeted, but even I could hear the shakiness in my own voice. I saw Jasper out of the corner of my eye raise an eyebrow as he could probably feel how nervous and scared I was. He shared a glance at Edward who looked to me. Damn. Don't think about it. Don't think about it, la la lala la. Stupid gifted vampires.

Bella and Alice seemed to catch on their partners confusing expressions as they looked at me. I gulped nervously as they all looked at me.

"Jordan…" Edward said, and I fully knew what he was going to say, so without thinking I blurted out, "I didn't do it." As a reflex, again, realising my mistake as they didn't know what I had done.

There was a gasp from besides me, and I guess Emmett had figured it out. I looked at him and he just pointed at a point behind me with his mouth open. I looked back at the others who were looking between his strange expression and me.

"What's going on Jordan?" Mum asked and I hesitated wondering how to explain it.

"What's that I can smell?" I heard Alice say, and she wrinkled her nose. I watched the others as they all seemed to smell what I assumed was the burnt television.

I sighed and they looked back to me. "Look, I didn't mean to do it." I said as I stepped out of the way and they all looked at what I was hiding, followed by gasps. They all looked back to me, and I wrung my hands together as I opened my mouth to speak again. "There's something I need to tell you."

* * * * * * *

"… the next thing I know is the television is up in flames and I didn't have time to stop it." I finished.

"So, so you done this?" Rosalie asked incredulously.

"Yeah, sorry." I apologised. "I didn't mean it. It just sort of happened."

"So you have a power like Caitlin's?" Bella asked and I just nodded, "But yours burns?" And I nodded again.

"This is fascinating." Carlisle said, as he looked down upon the piles of ash.

"Really?" I asked.

"Of course." He said turning back around and facing everyone. "Since Caitlin discovered her power I was interested in the way her power worked. It's nothing like you would expect it to be, infact you could say it was pretty random.

"I had a very small theory on how it may have been possible, and I think with the added information about Jordan's power it might just work."

"Well what is it?" Mum asked.

"Okay, imagine that whilst you were pregnant you passed down the gene to have an ability to both Caitlin and Jordan."

"Both of them?" She clarified.

"Yes, but instead of their own power being based on genetics, it was altered due to the nature of both Caitlin and Jordan.

"Caitlin, part-vampire, was in the same womb as Jordan, who was destined to be a wolf. Think of how unnatural it is for naturally-born enemies, to be growing inside the same place. Trying to share the same things that their mother as provided them…"

"So, what?" I asked, "We were given our powers to…use against each other?"

"Kind of," Carlisle continued, "maybe not to use against each other, but rather use against your enemies."

"I'm confused." I muttered.

"I'd be surprised if you weren't."

"Ok, so I would use mine against the likes of you guys," I said nodding towards everyone, "And Caitlin would use hers against me?"

"More or less, yes. Both your powers have different properties, and were most likely designed to kill the opposite, whilst maybe protecting your kind. Actually I don't think that would work with Jordan's but with Caitlin's yes."

"So what are you saying? That if I had managed to kill Emmett the other day, he wouldn't have actually died?" Caitlin asked.

"No, remember with us vampires, we have the ability to build ourselves back together. You need to burn us to completely kill us. If you would have exploded Emmett into tiny pieces, he would most likely just build himself up again. It would take a while but he wouldn't be dead.

"But Jordan on the other hand, would kill the likes of us instantly. He would be tearing us apart and killing us at the same time. He would be the ultimate vampire killer."

All eyes turned to me at that moment. As all of them looked at me, not in fear of me, but in amazement at my ability, a decision that I had been thinking over was quickly decided in an instant, and I knew it was the right decision to make.

"I'm going to go down to La Push." I said. A look of confusion crossed their faces, most likely at the randomness of my statement, but I had my reasons.

"What?" Mum said shocked. I saw my dad's expression change as he started to know what I was getting at.

"I want to move down to La Push so I am able to be with a pack, if there is one. It's not the family that is making me want to go, it's just I've been thinking of this decision ever since I transformed, and I guess now with my power it just helps seal the deal."

"Honey, we won't love you any less just because you have a power."

"It's not that, it's the fact I could hurt you, hurt any of you. But the worse thing is, is that I could kill you all by accident, and I don't want that.

"I love you all but it's better for me, and also your safety if I moved away from here. I could even use my power against other vampires."

I could see that mum was getting upset over my decision, "Are you sure this is what you want?" She asked. Not arguing over my decision just helped me understand she loved me enough to allow me to do my own decisions.

"Positive." I answered. I looked around the room again and saw that everyone seemed to be slightly upset about my decision, not in a bad way, but probably at the fact I would leave them.

"I guess I'll go get my stuff." I said quietly and stood up to leave the room.

"Wait you're not leaving now." Mum said standing up and wiping a tear that had rolled down her cheek, "You don't have to go right away."

"It's best if I do."

"No, Jacob tell him." She turned to dad, but I saw in his eyes that although this was going to hurt him, he was also going to support my decision either way.

"Let him go." He whispered.

I watched as mum looked back to me but didn't say anymore.

I left the room and ran quickly upstairs to my room. I was lucky that I hadn't unpacked much. I put all my things back in the boxes or in a suitcase. I felt a presence in the room behind me and I saw Caitlin helping me pack up.

"I'm only helping you so I can get you out of here faster." She said, trying to keep a straight face, but she smiled and I knew she was joking. We packed in silence and soon all my things were downstairs ready to go. It was just us two in my, well I could say old bedroom.

"Are you really sure about this? I mean it is pretty soon." She whispered.

"I'm sure." I said and I faced her. I noticed she had a tear falling down her face.

"Are you crying?" I asked teasing her.

"No." She said quickly wiping away the tear that had fallen.

"Come here." I said, and she turned around to face me and I hugged her.

"I'll actually miss you." She muffled into my shoulder.

"Yeah me too, who else am I going to tease. Oh and I expect my new guitar to be sent to me please."

She laughed and pulled away. "Sure thing."

I gave her another quick hug and then made my way downstairs, and out the house.

Everyone was there waiting for me, and as I passed each person I received a hug. I finally reached mum and dad. I could see mum holding back her tears.

"It's not like you'll never see me again." I said as I loaded my suitcase into the car. Dad was going to drive me up there. I didn't want to get a flight, I could do with the time to say bye to dad, or for him to at least tell me extra rules.

"So, a mother is allowed to get upset when her son leaves home and especially when he's only fifteen." She joked and then hugged me. She gave me a quick kiss on the cheek and said, "Be careful, and call us, often."

"I will." I promised and made my way to the car where dad was already.

"Do you want me to go with you?" She called out quickly as I shut the door and put on my seatbelt.

"You'll never leave if you do." I joked as I responded her. Dad turned on the ignition and everybody started waving and saying goodbye. I actually choked up and nearly cried, but I knew this was the decision to make and I was doing the right thing.

As we pulled out the drive I took one last look back and saw everyone still there watching me leave. Bella and Edward were comforting mum, and everyone was holding their partner, with Caitlin standing close to mum waving me off as well.

"Excited?" Dad said and I turned away from the house and looked at my dad.

"Definitely."


AN: Ok first I want to apologise with the long update. Anyways I'll try my best, next chap will go back to Bella's POV.

Secondly, I know I am getting hits for this story, but can you please review. You can say anything, or ask anything, or just tell me your thoughts on the chapter, so please, please review!

The next chapter is done, but if I can get 70 reviews then I will update XD
As a bit of persuasion, here's a sneak peak into next chapter...

Alice had frozen mid-step and was staring ahead as she had another vision, but her face turned to one of horror and she gasped as she saw whatever was going to occur in the future. "They're coming back." She whispered, still watching the vision that was unfolding before her eyes, "The Volturi are coming back."

Yup, the Volturi are coming back. Why? It's in the next chap...

Thanks
