Charlie was down in his secret underground basement preparing for his unexpected guest's arrival , in front of him laid out on a carved wooden table was an assortment of wooden stakes , guns, bullets , mini bombs and that same strange smelling herb from before . a few of the smaller stakes were strapped into a leather holster which could be wore around a person's arm under they're clothing all the person had to do was flex their arm and a smaller hand held stake would slid out of the contraption into the person's hand , quickly he strapped this device on to his left arm and rolled his sleeve down checking to make sure the device wasn't visible .
Next he grabbed a gun and some special bullets { filled with the same herb as his ring} similar to the one he would use for work expect this one only worked only on Vampires He'd been actually wanting to test it out on Edward Cullen for thinking he could date Bella without his permission , but he'd never got the chance to as where ever Edward was Bella would be too , and he couldn't shoot Edward without giving Bella an explanation as to why he'd just shot down her boyfriend .
Sighing he brushed away that amusing thought and selected an another weapon , this one looked like a mini bomb , it was but this one didn't have any effect on humans just vampires it was filled again the same herb as his ring and the bullets . The herb was called Vervain it was used by the original Salem witches to ward off Vampires , and same was said for another herb this one used to keep Werewolves away its name was Aconite more commonly known as Wolf's Bane, because it was so deadly to them the Swan family grew it as well , but as of yet had no need for it just the Vervain .
Putting the gun into his gun holster he also slipped a mini bomb into his jacket pocket , turning to his right he walked over to a craved wooden stand cover in a purple velvet cloth on the cloth lay a beautiful medium sized old dusty leather bound book , a Girmoire or spell book that had belonged to his ancestors the Original Swan Family who'd came from Italy and brought the old ways of witch-craft , along with Vampire and Werewolf hunting with them . passing it down from generation to generation each one adding something to the book for future ones.
Reverently he gently flipped the cover open to the title page beautifully handwritten in red, green, yellow and blue calligraphy was his family's crest composed of four quarters the first has a Swan{ their last name and symbolizing Beauty , the second an oak tree symbolizing Protection and knowledge , the third quarter has a a witches hat also symbolizing Knowledge and all things supernatural , the last quarter has an apple symbolizing the forbidden fruit or secret knowledge } then under that was the family motto :' scientia nos defendit or Knowledge protects us. in English '
Charlie continued flipping through the book until he came to a page with a hand-made book mark with feminine writing neatly scrawled onto it . From 1864 as the person had written the date at the top of the book mark . The page listed a recipe . Charlie had also told Bella when she first came here he couldn't cook , the truth is he lied he could cook just not recipes edible by human standers . Checking the list again he grabbing all the correct ingredients labeled in jars on the shelfs above his work bench and quickly went to work .
Five hours later the potion was finished , he tucked a small vital of it into his trouser pocket the rest he bottled and put into the fridge-freezer under the stairs incase he need anymore in the coming weeks it would save time to have some pre-made .
Gently closing and covering his family's Girmoire , Charlie clicked his fingers and the magical blue glowing flames in brackets attached to the rough stone walls coughed a few times then died out leaving only two remaining torches glowing, one shining like golden sunlight on the Vervain in one corner of the basement and the other bathed the Wolf's-Bane in a silvery column of moonlight in the other corner of the basement . pleased everything was working as it should he trekked back up the stairs and into the closet the secret door silently sliding shut after him pushing the clothes back into place he stepped out of the closet shutting the door firmly behind him he went back to the kitchen and put the kettle on for another coffee , while the kettle boiled for him put the potion he'd made in the freezer and the mini bomb under the table near his right leg so he would be able to kick it without the Vampire noticing , he also hoped without having to invite it inside as every hunter or old family knows once you invite a vampire into your home your it can come and go for the rest of eternity whether you leave or sell your house it doesn't matter .
The kettle gave a shrill whistle knocking Charlie out of his thinking , he gets up and pours his coffee sitting back down in his sit every few minutes he glanced nervously at the kitchen clock which read ' 5: 30 pm ' 'they should be here by now ' he thought and when back to drinking his coffee when the doorbell suddenly rings ,frowning Charlie gets up and answers the door , to Find Billy and Jacob Black on his doorstep with a wary smile he invites them inside and they all troop into the kitchen where Charlie brews some tea up .Then excuses himself saying there's something he needs to check up on work, he disappears up to the second floor then into the basement.
