Chapter 7

Seth POV-

As we made our way back to Edwards car I could tell that he was not looking forward to the bonfire, in truth I wasn't either. Normally I loved our meetings, but this one would now be centered on Edward and I imprinting, I was worried the elders would scare him away and that I would have to deal without my imprint. Sam was almost positive that if a shifter was to loose his imprint that the shifter would die too.

"Don't worry Seth, things will work out." Edward says as he grabs my hand, trying to calm my thoughts. I wasn't sure if he was meaning the meeting or us, a part of me didn't want to know what he meant instead I chose to take it to mean both things will work out.

It took us almost no time to walk back to Edwards's car and once we were both seated Edward sped off towards the reservation; Sam had received permission to allow Edward onto the rez for the bonfire and as we drove to Sam's house I couldn't help the uneasy feeling I was getting. There was something in my gut telling me that this meeting was not going to be as fun as others we have had.

Sam is the only one home when we arrive.

"Wow that's a nice car." Sam says before he straightens up and puts on his serious alpha face. "Come, we need to get going." He says before shifting, waiting for Edward and I to also shift.

"I prefer to stay in this form Sam." Edward says looking at the wolf.

The wolf doesn't look too pleased but soon he nods and looks at me.

I quickly go and change and give Edward my clothes to hold as the three of us start to run. I could tell just by looking at Edward that he was holding back.

Hey want to race? I ask both Edward and Sam.

Seth I don't want to leave Edward in the dust. Sam says with a laugh.

"I'm always up for a race if you two are, though I don't think we should race all the way there, the elders wouldn't like it for me to come running into their meeting." Edward says as the three of us stop.

Ok, we'll race to the last set of trees on the beach, that's a mile out from the bonfire. Sam says and Edward and I quickly agree before Sam says go and the three of us start flying through the trees.

The three of us were neck and neck and I loved the feel of Edward beside me as we ran, full out.

"Well it's been nice pup, but I have a race to win." Edward says as he picks up speed and leaves us in his dust. Sam and I find him 3 minutes later, leaning up against one of the trees we were talking about.

"Glad you two could join me." Edward taunts as he tosses me my clothes.

Once Sam and I are clothed the three of us walked to the meeting.

I could practically see the tension in the air as I moved closer to Edward, feeling the need to stay close to my imprint and earning me a small chuckle from Edward.

"Thank you for joining us, please have a seat." Billy Black says as we all take our seats.

Edward POV-

I do my best to ignore the thoughts from the elders as I sit in-between Seth and Sam, though I'll admit it's proving to be difficult.

Billy is thinking about how my family was a danger to his son and daughter in-law to be.

Harry is thinking about how to make my family break the treaty so that he could have use destroyed.

Linda is thinking how she wanted Sam's pack to run us out of Forks.

Thankfully the packs thoughts are slightly better as I use theirs to block out the elders.

"So bloodsucker, how many humans have you killed?" Harry Asks deciding to start the meeting off with showing the pack that I'm an "evil unnatural creature" that needs to be destroyed.

"Well human, I have yet to feed off of humans." I say with a slight threat, I so didn't want to spend the entire meeting being called bloodsucker or leech.

"He lies." Linda's squeaky voice says. "He's a leech they all lie!" I could tell that I was really not going to like this meeting.

The elders go back and forth for a while trying to get me to admit to killings that I haven't committed. The hate pouring off of Billy Black was the hardest to deal with and I found myself being grateful that I didn't have Jaspers gift.

"Who's that?" Quil suddenly asks as we see a wolfs shape in the distance.

Quickly I looked up just as the wind shifted and the shifters send flew at us. I didn't think as I rose from my seat and ran to the shifter.

"What are you doing here?" I say to my old time friend as I greet him.

Edward, I'm so glad that I have finally found you. Ephraim said as he laid down. My spirit is old; my time for the afterlife is coming.

"Then why make a trip here?" I ask hating that he could block my ability.

I'm afraid to die alone. I've been looking for you for almost two years. By this time the rest of the pack had joined us and was staring at the strange wolf. Imagine my surprise when I found you here.

"I think you may want to shift and revile yourself." I say and he just nods and stands up telling me he'll be back.

The pack just stares as a 25 year old looking man comes walking from the forest moments later.

"Hello, my name is Ephraim Black." He says causing shock to ripple through the pack and the elders that had come over to see what the fuss was about.

AN Ok I know that Ephraim Black is Jacobs Great Grandfather in the book, but I have changed his age to fit better with this story. I have made him Billy's Great Grandfather, who is 102 years old. I hope my change doesn't offend anyone.

Yes I know it's too short, but that was the best place to stop.

I hope you all enjoyed it, please let me know what you thought about this twist.
