Chapter 22
After catching a mountain lion and two deer, which tasted way better that the sharks from Hawaii, I got back to Jacob with four minutes to spare. I went and took his phone from him while Gabriel and Sam talked about several different things, but neither knowing my entire plan. I called Alice and Dad. Between the two of them I would be able to count on the family coming back to Forks. Then I made a very difficult call to Zafrina. I told her it was time to send Marie to Forks and that the Volturi would be attacking if they wanted in. Of course she wanted to come just to be able to take down Jane.
I refused to share my plan with anyone until the family was here and of course by the time morning came they were all back and ready to beat me for disappearing for so long. Esme stayed at the airport to meet up with Zafrina and Marie. I was afraid of how she would act towards me after leaving her for so long. With all of use sitting around the fire pit outside I told them my plan to get them here.
"Everyone remembers how the reacted when they heard about me being born, well what do you think they would do if they heard that Jacob and I were having a child. Two natural enemies breeding. We just neglect to tell them that it has already happened. We would invite them to meet the 'child' that way we could be sure they would appear on a full moon so we could use Gabriel and his followers." The only ones who agreed that this was a good idea was Zafrina and Alice who said it would work from what she could see.
Carlisle called all of his friends and all of those who came to my rescue came and then some others I had never heard of. Gabriel didn't like the idea of his pack being this close to this many vampires but agreed it would be a good plan. He called up his followers and told them to get here to help plan, that and I thought he felt out numbered even with Jacob and Sam's packs, dad eventually told me my suspicions were right.
Once Marie got to the house I tried to run to her but she kept moving things to block me. I stopped trying and ran inside to Edward's old room. Jacob was close behind and grabbed me from behind as I headed straight for the vase in the corner. He stopped me from throwing it to the ground. "I can't. I just can't. They both hate me, you should hate me and my family is disappointed in me…" He stroked my hair and sat me down on the black leather couch. "I don't hate you because… you were right. It took me a while to see it but it was what was best for our family. Marie tried to kill Caleb at what, two days old. Just think if they would have gone through adolescence together."
I knew he was just trying to make me feel better but it wasn't working and he knew it. Jasper came into the room and focused on me and I could feel myself letting it go, "Jasper please just let me feel bad." He did as I said and let me feel like shit, "Jacob Carlisle needs you to come down to Caleb. It seems us coming back all at once has triggered the gene." My poor son, we got up and went to find him lying on the couch in the living room looking like he might be sick.
Marie was there making fun of him from the kitchen, "Marie stop it, this is serious he is in a lot of pain." She walked around the corner carrying two plates with food on them, "Whatever, RENESMEE!" "Marie Alicia Black you will not treat your mother like that!" She turned around and I swear she reminded me of Rosalie, "Like hell I won't Jacob. She dropped me of with complete strangers after taking me away from any family I have ever known. I hate her!" I could tell Jacob was ready to exploded, "Jasper!" he came running in but it was already too late.
"Marie do you know why she left in the first place? Because of you! Not even a week old and you tried to kill Caleb. She left and took you with her because of what you did. She loved you enough to take you away and keep you safe even from yourself. She gave up her happiness for you and when she left you with Zafrina it was for your own good whether you believe it or not. She does love you, and if don't believe any of what I just said then look at the scar on Caleb's wrist." Jacob grabbed me by the wrist and pulled me out of the house with him. We ran together until we reached my parents old cabin that Esme built them after they got married.
