Chapter 50 – Value In Beliefs Part 2
Sam's POV
"Okay, so while Tiffany was having a little reunion with Jalen, we were wondering what was taking them so long as we started looking for them." Lucas said. I think I know what was the delay. "We were with Jalen's coven and well… things got a bit heated up, you know when we asked them for help to the airport and you should get the idea of them and humans. Then things kinda snapped when Mordecai insulted Nessie and Lucina due to their human traits."
"He did what?!" How dare that guy insult those two just because they are half human!
"Hey, don't really blame Mordecai, blame the people who made us believe that way because of how disrespectful they are." Jalen defended.
"We left Mordecai and the others and Edward told us the reason why they resent humans. You guys already knew the story." Lucas said.
"Jalen told me about them as well and about what happened to him since we last saw each other." Tiffany said. "It was so sad to hear what he and the others went through and what they believed in just because of how they were treated. This world may have bad people, but I never imagined this bad."
"I told Jalen that not all humans are bad and that they never took a chance to get to know the person. And if they don't, that's their problem." Tiffany said. "So I decided to show Jalen what it means to get along with humans while giving him the life experience he missed while he was gone."
"And I meant it, I had the best times I have ever had." Jalen said taking her hand as those two smile to each other and then turned to us.
"She took me to the arcade to play some video games including the dance machine which I beat her at every one," Jalen bragged causing Tiffany to roll her eyes while Lucina giggled. "Then she got me to listen to today's music, took silly pictures, pranking the cops, hanging around at the playground but my favorite part of that day was when Tiffany and I waltz together to a song that was played." I saw the face Tiffany made and I could tell she must be blushing as the girls were squealing.
"During that, it started to rain and Jalen took me under the bridge to let the rain die out." Tiffany said. "As we watched the rain, I noticed that Jalen is still holding my hand." Another round of squeals came. "I felt as if my heart was doing back flips and would be beating very fast despite that its dead. When I stare into Jalen's eyes, I can feel as if time has been suspended except for me and him. Also, this feeling has somehow erased the aching part that's been bugging me for a while making me realize that I'm in love with Jalen." Jalen gave her a warming smile as he kissed her. Gosh this is so sweet. I'm so happy for my sister.
"After the rain ended, Jalen took me to his place where he and his coven lives hoping to that the Cullens are there. They were there, after we came in." Tiffany looked embarrassed. So was Jalen and Lucas, Emmett, Jacob, Edward and Jasper started stifling a laugh. Now what's so funny?
"How about we get to our side of the story?" Edward said as he and the other boys try to calm down.
"I got this," Lucas said. "So we continued finding the airport while looking for Tiffany since she hasn't returned with Jalen. The whole wanting to kill Mordecai for the insults completely vanished after hearing his story. That's when we saw a fire happening at someone's house and two kids were trapped inside." Oh my gosh! I thought as we all gasped.
"And Lucas here did something crazy yet stupid, again." Jacob said. He didn't.
"I didn't want the family to go through the same thing I went through when I lost my family, so I went inside the burning house to save those kids with Edward's help." Lucas said. "We nearly died but we survived in the end and saved those kids." Well that's a relief and it doesn't surprise me that Lucas would do such a thing to save someone's life like Meghan's.
"Our heroic efforts really earned Mordecai's respect. He and his coven saw the whole thing." Lucas said. That sure is a surprise. "He then asked if we expected humans to do the same thing if we were in the same situation and we said we would if we weren't a family. That's when he let us stay at their place where we hope to find Tiffany and Jalen." Lucas then started stifling a laugh again along with the other boys while Jalen buried his face in Tiffany's hair while she brought her knees to her face.
"Okay what's going on?" I asked.
"Why are you guys laughing?" Bryce asked.
"When we came inside Mordecai's place, we caught Jalen and Tiffany making out." Lucas said causing him and the others to burst into laughing. Okay that makes sense now. I didn't know things were serious between those two.
"Oh shut up, I was just helping Jalen get the experience of his first kiss." Tiffany said.
"Did you have to tell everyone that, T-Stew?" Jalen said looking very embarrassed when more laughter came.
"If it makes you feel any better, Tiffany got a little carried away." Edward chuckled causing Tiffany to give him an annoyed look.
"Things did get a little heated up." Lucas said.
"How so?" Ellie asked.
"Ariana was seriously jealous seeing Jalen having a thing for Tiffany." Nessie said giggling.
"And then Mordecai got mad at Jalen having a thing for Tiffany, you know since she's been around with humans." Jacob said. Oh right.
"That got me mad and I walked out of the factory we all lived in taking Tiffany with me." Jalen said. "We were outside just talking about the way Mordecai spoke to Tiffany and that she's shown me the light about humans but I was still unsure since I'm new to all this."
"When Tiffany touched my hand, I felt something I never felt in my entire life. But I had no idea back then what it was however I do know that I don't want Tiffany to leave." Jalen said. Wow, he has no idea he's in love with my sister? First Lucas and now Jalen taking awhile on their feelings.
"Later I was watching Tiffany skipping stones when Carlisle came up to me." Jalen said. "He told me that Mordecai is willing to lead the Cullens to the airport so that they could go home." Wow, I didn't think Mordecai would do that since he's not okay with humans. "The problem was that that means Tiffany will leave me and I was told to… let her go since we're from different worlds." Jalen sighed as he continued. "Before I could make a decision, I picked up something from my tracking senses; it was someone I was not expecting to see."
"Was it Zoran and his coven?" Dexter asked.
"Somewhat worse than them. It was Steve and Spike." Jalen said. "Those two humans actually knew about vampires, for real."
"What?!"
"How much longer until they wake up?" Jacob asked Alice.
"About I say, a few minutes." Alice answered.
"How do they actually know about vampires?" I asked.
"It all started with Steve," Jalen explained. "When Steve was young probably in his late twenties or something, he was in the woods on a sunny day when he stumbled across a group of vampires attacking some hunters. Lucky for Steve, the vampires didn't catch him and since then it's been his obsession to catch vampires and exposed us to the world." That's crazy and dangerous for Steve and it must've been bad.
"Remember Witney, Mordecai's creator?" Jalen asked. "Well, one day, Mordecai and Witney thought they heard some sort of trouble at an abandon warehouse. It turns out to be a trap by Steve and Spike." Oh no. "Steve had them right where he wanted until there was an accident where the warehouse caught fire and Steve escaped to save himself. Unfortunately for those two, they were trapped in the fire with nowhere to go until Witney found a way out. The thing was, there was only enough time for one vampire to get out and Witney sacrificed herself to save Mordecai. That what made Mordecai came to the conclusion about humans." That's terrible for Mordecai. No wonder he hates humans so much. I'm surprised he still feeds off of them.
"So anyway, thanks to the heads up I received, I was able to get inside before they saw me, except… I left Tiffany out there without knowing and she was too focused on skipping stones." Jalen said earning more gasps.
"They didn't catch me but they know what I am and started chasing me. I was in human speed just in case they had a camera on them." Tiffany said.
"How did you get out of it?" Dad asked.
"We found a way save Tiffany and make Steve and his partner Spike look like they were hallucinating the whole time." Edward said. Whoa seriously?
"But Steve already saw vampires with his own eyes." Dexter said.
"Only the part where they are beautiful, pale skinned and drink blood but they could made it look like it was some acting or making a scene." Krystal said. I guess that would make sense.
"So what did you guys do?" Charlie asked.
"Okay, first Lucina was able to use her communication gift to tell Tiffany of the plan and got her to meet up with Lucina, Edward, Jasper, Jalen, Cameron and Eden where Steve and Spike followed them." Lucas explained. "When they told Steve and Spike that vampires don't exist no matter what Steve tried to point out what he knows, they told him of the consequences for accusing someone of some mythical creature and that's when I sent some aura spheres to the sky creating a storm with help from Krystal using her speed to create gusts of wind. Then Jacob appeared in his wolf form with William using Jacob's voice to scare them off." Well that must been good. I wish I saw that.
"Then another flash of lightning struck and the others appeared as 'being brought back from the dead.'" Lucas said. "Steve and Spike soon took off in fear and according to Edward, those two realized that they were being crazy and won't be bothering our kind ever again."
Well that's good to hear. Now the vampires can still live in peace. Well, there's still the Volturi but oh well.
Jalen then sighed while pulling Tiffany close to him as he hung his head down in shame. Or maybe regret. What's wrong?
"After scaring off Steve and Spike, I… I told Tiffany that what's happening between us, won't work since we were treated differently from humans. Told her that it's... it's better this way." Jalen said. He what?
"His words broke my heart." Tiffany said as Jalen kissed her a lot on the top of her head and whispered something to her. "I took off feeling hurt from Jalen's words. Lucas tried to stop me but I got out his grasp and told him to leave me alone and that I don't need him or anyone." Oh my gosh, poor Tiffany. But then how did they come together in the end?
"Tiffany," Mom said to her while dad gave Jalen that look.
"Hear me out Hayden," Jalen said to him. "I only said those things so that Tiffany could go home with the Cullens. I only wanted what's best for her, like Carlisle told me since my life was a mess while Tiffany's is bright."
"We started searching for Tiffany since she didn't return to us." Nessie said. "We couldn't find her. She was already gone from the city."
"What happened? Why couldn't Jalen track her down with his gift?" Tori asked.
"Do you think Jalen would find Tiffany after what he said to her?" Jasper asked. I guess not.
"Mordecai insist that if we wanted to catch our flight, we had to leave now." Carlisle said and then sighed. "So we had no choice but go now." They left without Tiffany?
"Mordecai showed us the way to the airport which was through the forest, a shortcut." Bella said. "We thanked Mordecai and before we said goodbye, Mordecai said that he needs to revaluate his views on humans after hearing our story which was a surprise for us." Wow, Mordecai has now seen the ways of humans that they aren't all bad?
"We soon went our separate ways and stopped at a junkyard so that Nessie and Lucina could catch a breath." Bella said. "Alice was regaining her visions at that time." Well that's good.
"We were just about to leave until we saw Lucas looking back." Krystal said.
"I refused to leave without Tiffany, and I knew everyone felt the same way since I saw their auras." Lucas said. "We all agreed to go back and look for Tiffany but before we could, Zoran's coven came." Not again.
"They came for the same reason, they want Lucina and Nessie's blood and just like before we were at a huge disadvantage without Mordecai and the others." Bella said. "I saw Nessie and Lucina trying to escape and get help but they were cornered by Barry and he was about to take a bite of them until CDs came flying everywhere each hitting the vampires to stop what they were doing, adding Dawn getting a haircut," That caused most of the Cullens to snicker. I bet Dawn looks good with her new haircut.
"We looked to see who it was and she showed herself stopping Barry from getting near Nessie and Lucina; it was Tiffany." Bella said. Alright!
"Not only did she stop Zoran's coven from getting what they want, she took them all down at once and they ended up dead from the explosion mom caused." Lucina said. Wow, my sister is one bad ass vampire.
"But how did you find the Cullens?" Elena asked.
"I used my eye seeing gift on Lucas and followed everyone where they were." Tiffany said. "Everyone was giving me gratitude for saving them. Well, Lucas flipped on me taking off." she said chuckling. "So we all started heading home but, I was still heartbroken from Jalen's words." I should've known.
"It's been three days since we got home and I was still hurting over having my heart broken." Tiffany said and paused for a moment when she was crying. "Everything that made me happy was shattered. I thought I would never have what everyone has. I was in the woods crying, alone. That's when I felt someone's hand on my face." Wait, does she mean…
Tiffany turns to Jalen and he took over.
"Let me explain what happened to me after Tiffany ran off and soon the Cullens left." He said taking a breath before he began. "The next day when the Cullens returned home, I was beating myself up for what I said to Tiffany even though I was doing what's best for her. Then I was having that feeling again. Only this time, it was like a hole in my chest after being ripped off." Wow, Jalen had it the same way as Tiffany.
"I thought back on what Lucas told me." Jalen said. Lucas? "He knew I was lying to Tiffany when he saw my aura. He also knew along with Edward and Jasper the reason of my feelings; I'm in love with Tiffany." The twins started squealing at those words. "Then Lucas told me that I need to do what's right for me and Tiffany. That I have to follow my heart."
"After talking with Mordecai and thinking back on Lucas's words, I made my decision." Jalen said. "I first told Ariana, who thought I now have feelings for her after what I said to Tiffany, that I don't, will I ever, feel the same way about her. Then I grabbed all the money I have saved, said goodbye to my old coven and took a flight to Forks."
"I soon found Tiffany with my tracking senses and saw her crying, which I caused." Jalen said taking Tiffany's hand. "She saw me and was beyond happy to see me again. I told her how I found her and that I followed her mind and my heart, and I said that I love her." Tiffany smiled and kissed his lips.
"I love you." She said.
"I love you more." Jalen smiled.
"Awe!" The girls said happily.
"Tiffany soon took me to the Cullen's house where everyone was waiting for us." Jalen said as he and Tiffany gave Alice a glare who smiled like she did nothing wrong.
"Apparently, this pixie here knew about Jalen's arrival and didn't tell me for three days while I was suffering from a broken heart." Tiffany said. Wow, way to use your visions that way Alice.
"I told the Cullens of my reason for being here apart from confessing my love to Tiffany." Jalen said. "I told them that I wanted to start over my life. I spent the last twenty years having nothing besides my coven. When I met the Cullens, they all went through something similar to mine but they were happy like… like a family. I… never seen a family so different yet similar with such a strong bond. Apart from wanting to be with Tiffany, I want to join their coven to have a fresh start in my life."
"And of course we accepted Jalen to be a part of this family." Esme said smiling to him.
"That's why Jalen already started our diet before he came to Forks." Tiffany said.
Wow, who knew Jalen quickly changed diet on his own will.
"I then officially introduced Jalen to Lucina who happily accepts him." Tiffany smiled.
"And she allowed me to communicate with her mentally." Jalen said taking her hand as Lucina reached over and kissed his cheek.
"After celebrating of Jalen becoming a part of this family and with night falling, I took Jalen to our cottage." Tiffany said. "He carried Lucina to bed and I showed him the place until we came to my room. Let's just say that night was magical for us." She smiled. Wow. Crazy things happened but I'm glad Tiffany has reunited with Jalen and are both now soul mates for life.
"Bryce my man, you're up last!" Emmett said as Evan and Sarah came downstairs after being waken up and sat with Jacob and Nessie.
"Alright guys, time for my story." Bryce said.
I wonder what happens next to the Cullens.
Bryce's story and then Have A Purpose! I'm estimating about four chapters. Please review.
