JPOV
It was a Saturday, and as usual, I was spending it with Bella. As juvenile as it was, we spent the morning watching cartoons. It was fucking fun. We had plans to meet Jacob at the Forks Community Park later on in the day so that I could demonstrate my gift to him, as promised.
We were heading out the door when I felt a signature of emotions that felt familiar, heading our way. I recognized the deep-rooted feelings of knowing and amusement, and I was instantly alert. The only reason for that signature to come seek me out would be that trouble would be heading our way, and soon.
I pushed Bella behind me and stood waiting. When he arrived, his face was grave.
"Major."
"Peter."
I suppressed a growl. I knew I was about to hear some bad news. Bella shifted behind me and her emotions were of recognition, confusion, and wariness. I pulled her to my side, looping my arm around her waist.
"Umm, hi Peter. Uhh, would you like to come in?"
'That's my girl.'
So fucking adorable and polite.
He looked at her and smirked. He was putting out strong waves of mischief. I sent him a warning and he put his hands up in surrender.
"Why the hell are you here Peter?"
"I think it would be best if you sent Isabella inside."
I faced her and raised an eyebrow and jerked my head towards the house.
"But-" Bella was ready to argue.
"Not now, Isabella. Get inside."
Isabella knew I meant business and went inside without a word, all the while sending me waves of annoyance.
I turned back to my second.
"Again, why the hell are you here?"
He sighed.
"Remember when I sent you that txt that told you to watch your backs? Well, I was right, but not completely. The threat I felt was always there, but there was no way you could watch your back because the threat was so far away, geographically. The threat is stronger, Major. A lot stronger, and it's getting close. I feel that you're gonna need what ever help you can get. That is why me and my Charlotte are here."
And that was when I knew that there was a world of fuckery headed our way. Charlotte was always the weak one, and Peter always goes out of his way to protect his mate. If he brought her here to help, then things are going to go south.

I paced anxiously in my bedroom while Jasper and Peter were outside. I really wanted to be out there with them, and if it was Edward who told me to go inside, I would have tried to find a way to sneak back outside and listen to the conversation. However, Jasper is different. He doesn't always hide things from me, so if he tells me to go inside, then I know that I should just do as he says.
Five minutes later, both Jasper and Peter came in. I rushed down the stairs.
"Is everything alright Jasper?"
He sighed.
"No, Bella, they're not. I'll tell you later."
I don't think Jasper noticed, but he was sending waves of his feelings, loud and clear. He was very worried. In turn, I was getting worried and all I wanted was to be in his arms, because if I was in his arms, I knew I would be safe from anything.
I turned my attention to Peter.
"Um, Peter? If you're going to be here, then I want you to know about the only rule I have. Don't feed in Port Angeles. Seattle is ok, but not Port Angeles, and here in Forks of course. Forks and Port Angeles is off limits."
That seemed to ease the tension.
"Haha, of course little lady."
'Huh, he has a southern twang, just like Jasper.'
Peter and Jasper left to go hunting.
Later that evening, me and Jasper were on my bed. He was leaning against the headboard, and I was snuggled in his embrace.
"What's going on Jasper? Why is Peter here?"
He squeezed me tighter.
"I don't really know much, darlin'. All I know is that there is some sort of threat and you and I are the targets."
I gasped.
"What do you mean we're targets?"
He sent me some calming waves.
"Exactly that. You and I are in some sorta trouble."
And that was all that was said on the subject. He proceeded to read me to sleep.

The moment I knew she was asleep, I pulled myself away from her and made sure she was tucked in properly and went back to the Cullen house. I hardly ever stay there anymore, but now that Peter is here, we need an official headquarters.
He was already waiting in my bedroom, looking at what was left in there. The moment he sensed my presence, like the good soldier I trained him to be, he fell into position. Standing straight, motionless, with his hands behind his back. I also put myself in a state that I haven't been in in a long time. I brought the Major out of his chains and kept him right under the surface. My eyes darkened and my venom started flowing, making my mouth slick, and my teeth even more lethal.
"Peter, what do you suggest we do?"
"First off Major, we need to introduce Charlotte and Bella to each other. Bella needs to be kept safe, and my Charlotte can protect her."
'Protect Mine! Yes!'
And that was when I realized.
A/N: SORRY GUYS FOR THE LONGISH WAIT. I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU, BUT FF . NET HAS BEEN ACTING WERID WITH ME. EVERY TIME I TRIED TO WRITE THIS CHAPTER, THE EDIT/PREVIEW BOX WOULDN'T LET ME. THE BOX WAS LIKE, HALF AN INCH THICK, SO ALL I COULD WRITE WAS ABOUT TWO LINES. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS MY LAPTOP, SO I TRIED TO WRITE WITH TWO OTHER COMPUTERS. SAME THING HAPPENED. ANYWAY, IT'S WORKING RIGHT NOW, SO I'VE TAKEN ADVANTAGE.
ANOTHER THING, I HOPE YOU READ THIS: ANGRY FANFICTIONEER, HOW NICE AND BRAVE (NOT) IT WAS OF YOU TO WRITE A FLAME REVIEW AND DO IT SO THAT I CAN'T RESPOND BACK. WELL, SORRY CHICA, BUT YOU CAN'T ESCAPE MY RESPONSE. SO, HERE I AM RESPONDING TO YOU, AND GUESS WHAT? EVERY ONE ELSE WILL GET TO SEE. HOW 'BOUT THEM APPLES?
DEAR ANGRY FANFICTIONEER,
HOW IN THE WORLD AM I GIVING UP? I WORK HARD ON MY STORIES, AND THE MOMENT I GIVE UP, EVERYONE WILL KNOW. AND THE LAST TIME I CHECKED, THE WORD 'GRAMMAR' IS SPELLED 'GRAMMAR' NOT 'GRAMMER', THE WORD IS 'HORRID' NOT 'HORRIS'. SO PLEASE, DON'T CRITICIZE MY GRAMMAR IF YOU CAN'T EVEN CRITICIZE IT WHILE SPELLING IT CORRECTLY.
AND MY WRITING STYLE? WELL, YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO THINK IT'S CHEESY, SO I'M NOT MAD ABOUT THAT.
AND I'M NOT MAD THAT YOU THINK THIS STORY "PALES IN COMPARISON" TO 'SHIMMERING MOON'. LET ME TELL YOU, I KNOW THAT 'MOONY' THE BEAST, AND 'MAJOR' THE BEAST ARE SIMILAR, BECAUSE I DID THAT ON PURPOSE. THEY ARE THE PRIMAL PARTS OF BOTH JASPER AND REMUS, SO YEAH, THEY'RE GOING TO ACT SIMILAR
NEXT TIME YOU WANT TO CRITICIZE MY STORY, OR A CHAPTER, PLEASE DO IT IN A MORE RESPECTFUL WAY, INSTEAD OF BEING RUDE ABOUT IT AND SIGNING THE REVIEW ANONYMOUSLY.
RESPECTFULLY,
AKEMI.
