Well my sister landed herself in the hospital today. I told her that surfing was dangerous but does she listen? Of course not.
Summary: Another imprint on another vampire sends the pack into turmoil. Sam cannot look past it this time and his true colors show.
If I owned Twilight Bella wouldn't have been such a pansy. So apparently I don't own it.
*~*~*Chapter 6*~*~*
~~Disgrace~~
The head dropped from my hand as I rushed back to where Alice was still sitting on the ground. I ignored the other three because at the moment none of them mattered.
"Well, you're just full of surprises aren't you." She chuckled and placed her hand in mine, allowing me to help her up.
"So Bella, I have come to a conclusion about you and me." Edward started as he began to get up. I turned and growled deeply at him. He held his hands up in mock surrender. "Relax, I was just going to say that I've had a change of heart. Well, more that I would prefer to keep my head attached to my body." I rolled my eyes at his logic and Alice just shook her head. If he really did have a change of heart there had to be another reason for it. He wouldn't just give up that easily. A small whine made me remember the two wolves that had been with us and I turned back to them. This was their first phase and they probably had no idea what to do. Leah was growling slightly at Edward. She was completely ignoring Alice all together which I was fine with.
"Leah?" She just growled again. Well now I knew how the others felt when they spoke to me and I ignored and growled at them. "What is she thinking Edward?" I asked and he scrunched his brow as he tried to focus on her mind. My shield thing must have been up though because he was having a hard time. I tried to concentrate enough to take it down but of course I had no idea how to. I couldn't understand why I was no longer able to hear the pack in my mind. It didn't make any sense. We stood in silence aside for Seth's whimpering and Leah's growling for a few minutes before Leah finally lunged at Edward.
"Whoa, what the hell?" He cried as he crouched down in his attack position. At first I just figured she didn't like him because he was a leech. I didn't realize it would escalate to violence though. Before Leah got to him Seth knocked her down and stood protectively in front of my ex. I knew that look in his eyes. I figured I had pretty much the same look when it came to Alice. Little Seth seems to have imprinted on Edward. Edward isn't very accepting of same sex relationships. He made that pretty clear and yet here he is standing next to his soul mate. That soul mate also seemed to be male. I wish I had a camera for when he realizes what happened. I literally started to howl with laughter. I had two vampires looking at me like I was insane and two wolves that looked like they wanted to kill me.
"Oh this will be good." I managed to choke out between laughs.
"What will be good Bella?" Edward asked me as he stared at Leah, just in case she tried to attack again. "Why did this mutt attack me?" He demanded.
"Hey, being a mutt I find that offensive. And as for why she attacked you." I paused for a moment and smiled. "Well it's not my place say." Before he answered I heard a shriek from halfway across the field and saw a blur race past me and to the headless Jasper. Esme fell to her knee's and looked over at the rest of us.
"Why?" She cried as she picked up the head to her son and brought it closer to his body. I assumed she was hoping it would reattach itself. Leave it to Esme to make me feel bad about trying to kill someone who deserved to die. I hung my head as I looked back at Alice.
"Shh, you were just protecting them." She said softly as she gestured towards the two new wolves. When I had been laughing at Edward I had crouched down and was at the same height as the other wolves. I felt a small twinge in my back from the position and stood back up. Multiple gasps sounded from the forest as the rest of the Cullen clan came into view followed by the pack.
"Sure, now they show up." I mumbled loud enough for the vampires to hear but the pack didn't notice. Sam slowly walked up to me and sniffed at my feet before looking up at me. The look of confusion on his face changed suddenly as his head whipped around towards Seth. Then he looked back at me and glared. It's not like I made him imprint on Edward. Unfortunately Sam didn't see it that way. He ran into the woods and shifted before storming back towards me.
"What have you done?" He demanded as he pointed his finger at me. Getting back into my habit I didn't bother replying. I just growled deeply at him. He stepped right up to me invading my personal space and jabbed me in the chest with his finger. Alice growled a bit and stepped closer to me.
"Watch it." She warned him.
"It's bad enough that you imprinted on a leech but now you are taking them down that path with you?" He jabbed me in the chest again and I began taking deep breaths. I had to stay in control. This was my alpha and I couldn't do anything to hurt him. Alice didn't see it that way though as she grabbed his finger.
"Do it again and I'll break it." Maybe she did feel the imprint after all.
"This is disgusting!" He shouted as he pulled away from Alice. "I tried to be okay with this but it's unnatural! Disgraceful! Both of you had better make a decision fast. It's either your pack or the parasites." Seth took a few threatening steps towards Sam. Bared his teeth at him and shook his head before turning away and walking towards Edward.
"Will somebody please fill me in on what's going on?" Carlisle asked, finally sick of not being in the loop. All the other vampires had come much closer and the Pack didn't look too thrilled about that. The only vampires not around were Esme and Jasper because they were still over by the stream and the newcomer Maggie. She didn't seem to be in the field at all. Maybe she had left after everything that happened with the empathic asshole.
"You know that Bella here imprinted on Alice." He said harshly before turning his look of disgust on Seth. "It seems Seth imprinted on the mind reader." I quickly looked over to seed Edwards reaction. His eyes were wide and it looked like he had possibly gone into shock. Alice had her hand covering her mouth and I was pretty sure she was covering up a smirk.
"No way!" Emmett shouted, playful grin adorning his face. "Way to go bro!" Edward didn't respond at all.
"I think you broke him." Rosalie walked up to him and waved her hand in his face. "Hello?"
"I think it's safe to say that you are both out of the pack." Sam snorted with even more disgust. "And you are no longer welcome on our land. You are on the Cullen side of the treaty now." Seth let out a small whine and cocked his head to the side.
"You cant do that, he lives on the reservation." Seth whined even more and stepped up beside me.
"You should have thought about that before you chose sides." His body went ridged and he got ready to phase again. "Let's go Leah." She stiffened up and reluctantly walked towards Sam.
"No, you don't have to go. I know you don't want to leave Seth. He's your brother." I could tell she wanted to stay but the alpha command was too strong for her to fight.
"Please Sam, there must be some kind of compromise. They are siblings, you cant rip them apart." The Sam I though he was had disappeared though. He wouldn't listen to reason.
"Sam." I shouted as he finally phased into his wolf form. He looked back at me and snarled. "You cannot just take her away like this." I have to admit, although I didn't care much for Leah, I didn't want to see her or Seth get hurt because of him imprinting on the enemy. If wolves could smirk I'm pretty sure Sam did as he began to turn around. I puffed out my chest and growled, making myself look bigger and hopefully more vicious. "I will not let you." He turned around again taking that as a challenge. He should know better then to fight me. Look at me! I'm the biggest wolf here. I'm the strongest and fastest and there is nothing he could do. I didn't know where those thoughts were coming from but at the moment I didn't care. He wasn't taking Leah away from Seth. I growled and stepped forward and he seemed genuinely surprised. He didn't actually expect someone to challenge him.
"Stop!" Carlisle boomed and everyone turned to look at him. He had never been one to raise his voice. "This should be Leah's choice." He said, turning to the small greyish wolf. "Leah, who's pack would you feel more comfortable in? Sam's or Bella's?" My head snapped up at that. When did I become an Alpha? I didn't even know I had my own pack. Leah took a hesitant step towards Sam then stopped. The she looked back at me, rolled her eyes and came up to my side.
"Well it looks like that's settled then." Esme said as she walked up to us with Jasper standing behind her. I couldn't believe she put him back together. Now I was going to have to knock his damn head off again. A strange sensation flowed through my body and I found myself shrinking back into my normal wolf form.
"Bella?" I heard Seth's voice ask. I looked over and nodded at him. "So you, me and Leah are a pack now?" I really wasn't sure how to answer though.
"It would seem so. I wasn't aware I was even an Alpha though so I'm kind of confused about this whole thing. I think I'll have to ask Carlisle about it. He seems to know more then I do." I heard Leah groan in annoyance.
"I'm stuck in a pack with an alpha that doesn't know her head from her tail. Wonderful." A snorting laughter burst out of me, and Seth quickly joined me. Everyone looked at us strangely and I saw Edward concentrate on Seth. Then he suddenly started laughing as well. Leah just sat down and began to sulk. I took a few steps towards her and nudged her with my nose. She just grumbled and turned away. I nudged her again which made her growl. I nudged her a third time and she got up and turned her back on me before sitting back down. My tail started wagging and I got a strong urge. Paul really was right about the whole house pet thing. As Sam, Jarad, Quil and Embry left I crouched down, sticking my butt in the air. Paul and Jacob still remained and were watching us. All of the Cullen's, including he who must not be named had grins on their faces because they all knew what was coming. After a moment of silence I pounced like a cat would on a mouse. Shamefully enough Leah stood and sidestepped quickly, causing me to fall face first to the ground.
"Ouch." I mumbled as I slowly stood up. Alice came over to make sure I was alright. The only thing bruised was my ego.
"We all saw that coming Bells. How did you not know she would do that?" I heard Jacob's voice say which startled the hell out of me.
"Jake? What are you doing in my head? I thought I was out of your pack now." He cocked his head at me.
"You are out of Sam's pack yes. We left it as well. He was a controlling ass anyways."
"Yeah, one with a giant stick up his-"
"Paul! Don't say it." I muttered, knowing full well what he wanted to say.
"I calls em as I sees em." He said proudly. "Besides, I may have only known you for a little while but come on. Peeing on vampires arms? You make things much more entertaining. And sure I don't like these leeches at all but I will deal. As long as I don't have to live with them." I looked at him, then to Jacob, Seth and Leah and could really feel something beginning to form between us. We really were going to become like a family. I could feel it.
I wrote more then half of this while in a hospital waiting room. There was one little kid who I'm going to assume broke him arm who was screaming and screaming. I was starting to think my ears were going to bleed.
~He who must not be names (Jasper) will not be forgiven. There will be revenge.
~Paul and Jake willingly joined Bella's pack. More about why they did it will be in an upcoming chapter. Yes there is a reason.
~I don't have any kind of problem with Leah. I'm not sure why anyone would think otherwise.
~Maggie is not gone. ;)
~Paul and Jake might imprint. Possibly on humans, possibly on vampires.
