Okay, next chapter. A.N. Please pay attention to the time markings, I will be switching between past and present so watch out for that or you will be lost. Okay, enjoy... hopefully this makes sense, so I might change a few things in the next few days if I don't like it so be warned.

Enjoy.

(Carla's p.o.v) (Few days later)

I looked up to see 5 cop cars speeding down the street, something had been attacking people a few towns up and folk down here were starting to get worried it was going to come here. Forks is a quiet town that keeps to itself, sure we had our fill of problems but it didn't deserve this. I glanced at my staff.

"Hey Sarah?" A 17 year old girl with pinned up locks turned to me "I'm going to take a break for a minute, are you alright here?" She smiles.

"Of course Carla, do you need anything?" I smiled and rubbed her cheek.

"No love, thank you though" I say she nods and continues cleaning. I had hired Sarah a few years ago when she ran away from home; I found her outside my restaurant and took her in. I could hear the door opening as I left and Sarah greeting a customer. I walked outside and got my phone, with a few clicks the other line picked up.

"Hey, it's me" I look up at the distancing lights and frowned at the sickening silence "I need you to check something out for me"

(Carlisle's p.o.v)

I pulled into the station and looked around, cop cars were parked everywhere. There blue and red light were like a silent warning of a bad omen. I got out of the car just in time to see Chief swan wave me through the yellow rope, I nodded at the cops beside me and headed into the building.

"Chief" I nod

"Carlisle" I say and shake my hand; I glance at the wall and swallow my venom roughly. The smell had hit me before I even left the car.

BLOOD

"What's going on?" I asked, even though I was sure of the answer.

"A younger couple called in a murder about 45 minutes ago"

"Are they still here?" I ask, Charlie gives me a nod and I saw two people in their twenties sitting on an ambulance and wrapped in blankets.

"The boyfriend called it in a half an hour after he could talk again." I nodded and tried to focus on what Charlie was saying and not on the overpowering scent of blood that increased as we walked up the stairs. "I should warn you though, it pretty graphic in here" I nod and push open the large metal doors, I swear I almost fell over as all the smell hit me at once.

I gasped as I took in the room, the walls and floors were covered in blood. The bodies of victims were spread across the floor, as others where left half open and dripping from the ceiling. I held my breath as I walked into the room, watching my step as I walked. I glanced to see Charlie walking in beside me, a rag was held up to his face and the look of nausea held his face. I had never seen anything so horrid in my entire existence. If I could cry I would have been in tears right about now.

I swore I could hear the blood-filled screams that echoed around this place.

"How many where in here?" I asked quietly.

"30..." Charlie sighs; I shut my eyes and turn away from the mess. Charlie nods and fallows me out of the room; I shut the door and turn to him.

"I really don't know what to say Charlie... I think it might be an animal but I'd have to look at the bodies when their out of the-" I couldn't even finish the words. He gives me a grim nod and we walk down the hall.

Outside I Look up and gently breathed in the forest and the ocean. My eyes scan the flashing lights and I try to focus on anything other than the smell of blood. I reach into my pocket and pull out my keys, figuring it was best to get out of here. As I pushed the button my eyes caught a black car on the far side of the street, the windows were all tinted and its glossy coat shines from the flashing lights. It must have noticed me because seconds later it slowly rolled down the street; I paused to take in a deep breath. My mouth twisted in confusion; all I smelt was ocean water and pine needles.

(Shannon's p.o.v)

I glanced out the window and watched the cars drive by. The glass fogged with my breath and I wrapped my arms around myself. The dinner was a big hit in this small town; so many faces went in and out daily. A few people were sitting in their booths eating; some people buried themselves in their afternoon papers as others chatted with friends or family.

"Shannon?" A voice gently whispers, I glance back to see my older sister Carla staring worriedly at me "Are you alright?"

"Yeah, I'm fine" I say and force a smile. She grabs my shoulder lightly and gives it a squeeze.

"Are you sure?" I give a breathy laugh and slowly nod my head.

"Yeah!" I try to say a bit more convincingly "I'm sorry, I'm just thinking about stuff" she sends me a worried glance before a man calls her from the far table.

I shake my head and try to focus on my work, but this nagging feeling in my gut would not leave. With a small sigh I Grab the dishes and haul the slightly heavy container to the back. I place the dishes in the sink and throw on the water. The bell strung above the door lets out a soft ring before I smile, I could hear her voice travel through the dinner as she greeted friends. Glancing up I see my daughter walk through the double doors.

"Hey mum" she whispers with a smile and pulls me into the hug.

"Hey Kira" I whisper quietly and hug her back.

Carla comes into the back with a tray of dishes and sets them beside the sink; she flicks off the water and smiles at us.

"Hey lovely" she smiles and gives her a hug, Kira smiles and hugs her back "Did you find anything?"

Kira made a grim face.

"Well, yeah. I found a lot of things, in a lot of pieces." I grip her shoulder comfortably.

"I'm sorry" I gently rub her cheek "Do you have an Idea of what it is?" I ask and I tie an apron around my waist. Carla fishes food out of the deep fryer.

"Espíritus de la niebla" She says quietly in Spanish, I stop tying and we both look at her.

"What?!" I blurt out.

"I know." Kira gently rubs a wet rag in a circle "I didn't get a good look because the chief brought a fucking Leech in" she growls lowly "but yeah, for what I could tell it was."

"They're not still here are they?" I asked the nervousness evident in my voice.

If a group of Espíritus de la niebla where here they would slaughter the whole town in amateur of days, and the closest keepers to us were a three day journey away. They'd never make it in time.

"No" Kira sighs slight annoyance mixed with her voice "I tracked them up to the West woods-"

"You didn't go on their land did you?!" I blurted out concerned, my nerves burned at the mention of the western forest wolves. She sends me "Are you kidding me" look.

"It's not like I couldn't take them..." She says a bit insulted, I look at her with wide eyes "Of Course not mom" she groans "but from what I can tell, the Espíritus de la niebla vanished about 5 miles after that." I rolled my eyes "So I THINK that their heading east" I sigh and finish tying up my apron.

"Okay. I'll let the eastern keepers know they'll be expecting a fight." I take the cloth form her hands and throw it in the sink.

"Do you need any help?" she asks with a glance around the mostly clean kitchen, I laugh lightly.

"No not really but you could do the dishes if you like?"

She sends me a small smile before rolling up her sleeves to sink her hands into the warm soapy water. I glanced at her as I took out some dough for buns. She looked so much like me. Her brunette locks were held up in a small pony-tail, Small shoulders with a tiny waist. Her tall upper body and long legs where the only difference between us.

"Are you doing anything tonight?" I asked, hoping that my voice stayed casual and not stressed

"Well, I wasn't planning on it."

"Maybe you should." I say with a small smile.

"Why...?" She glances at me weirdly and I try to hide my nerves in the dough I was squashing under my palm.

"I don't know" I laugh lightly "You've been working so hard and I think that you should take the night off and have some fun?" she sends me a small questioning smile.

"What are you planning?" she smirks, I through my hands up in mock surrender

"Nothing, I swear"

"... I guess I could see if Ang wants to head out?" I smile and start cutting out the dough with a small cup before throwing them on a tray. I pop the pan in oven and set the timer as Kara's phones ring; I roll my eyes as she talks to her friends. "Yep. Yep. No way! Shut up, you're kidding! Oh my Gosh! Yep... okay I'll pick you up in a bit!"

I glance at her with a smile. Kira had grown up with two different families. I sent her to some of my human relatives as a baby, hoping she would stay safe but when Kira turned 9 her powers started manifesting and I had no choice but to come clean. Her shock and anger was an expected reaction but after a few days of the silent treatment she came knocking at my door.

We decided to keep her with both names as a matter or safety. Her real father had passed away when she was 3 months old and I'm constantly shocked to see that she acted like him in so many ways. Like scrunching up her nose in thought, chewing on the end of the pencil. Running her fingers through her hair and biting the bottom of her lip when she was annoyed but didn't want to say it out loud. I watch her dry off her hands after placing the last dish on the rack to drip dry; I smile and wipe off my hands on the apron.

"Kira?" I whisper, she glances in my direction "I love you" I whisper as I pull her into a hug "So much..." she laughs nervously and hugs me back.

"I love you to mum" I rub her back before she pulls back slightly to look at me "Are you sure you want me to go out? You're really scaring me here" I smirk and roll my eyes.

"I'm fine" I lie "I just... you remind me so much of your father" she frowns slightly and pulls me into another hug.

"I know mum, I miss him too." she whispers, I hug her tightly and burry my nose in her hair. She smelt like the strawberry shampoo I sent her for Christmas. "I have to go if I'm going to the movie on time." I nod and wipe my eyes with a laugh.

"Right, right!" I smirk "I'm a suck, go, go!" I smile and lightly push her through the doors.

I lean against the side of the wall doorway as she walks to the glass doors, she turns around.

"I love you" she mouths before backing through the door.

"I love you too" I whisper back.

Okay peace out!
