Michelle's POV
I jumped to the sound of a howl vibrating the earth and soon felt Jacob wake up too. I sighed knowing it was probably midnight and rolled out of the bed with Jacob and I noticed he had nothing on. I shook my head and laughed.
"One day, your dad is going to forget or something is going to happen and he'll come in to see that." I pointed down south, but I was looking in the mirror when I did. My hair was a little messy; small parts poking different ways, but for the most part it looked okay for just waking up. I brushed it out with the brush that Jacob actually kept here not minding if anyone found that. I shook my head at the disappearing hickey, it was disappearing pretty quickly, but it could have gone away faster if Embry and I hadn't gotten into a fight yesterday morning.
I brought my hair back over my neck blowing the air out of my mouth and turned around to find Jacob right behind me with his usual cut offs and no shirt. He brought his hands to the small of my back and pulled me closer to him and I could feel him getting bigger by the second. I inhaled sharply feeling his hands go partially up my shirt and his warm hands rested softly on the small of my back.
"As much as I find this extremely hot, I think we should get going." I pointed out the window and just noticed a silver wolf I learned was Paul. He didn't look to happy, but a little amused. Jacob let out a low growl and let go of me and we made our way out of the room and out of the house.
"Okay, get on my back when I crouch down, okay?"
I sighed. "Jacob, I thought we already settled this in your room." I joked. All he did was laugh and phased once we were passed the tree line and got on his belly so I could climb on. I held onto his fur for dear life and sat between his shoulder blades and felt the wind blow my hair back; what a waist of brushing it, right?
The ride was like a roller coaster – you know you won't get hurt, but it's scary as Hell. We just missed several trees, and I swear we were going to hit them, but somehow I was never hurt and soon I just realized there was no reason to be afraid.
I flopped off of Jacob and landed on the ground seeing eight other wolves, seven vampires and the same girl that sat beside Edward earlier; I think her name is Bella.
I sat up on my knees and put my face on the ground.
"Land!" I sighed and laughing along with everyone else. But I knew now wasn't the time for jokes and that we need to get down to business.
"Okay, we understand this meeting is about the real reason behind Mitchy becoming a full fairy." Carlisle started and I nodded my head. "We've also known about Victoria returning to capture Bella." Carlisle startled me with his words.
"What?" I quickly questioned stepping forward.
"The vampire Victoria has returned for revenge against Edward for killing her mate, James." Carlisle confirmed. "Just yesterday Jacob and Paul had an encounter with her in the woods as she switched from side to side of the border and once again we apologize for Emmet crossing." Why didn't Jacob tell me anything? I looked up at him a little flustered, but he put his head down trying his best not to look at me.
"They want to know what if Victoria might have anything to do with Mitchy's becoming a fully fairy." Edward translated reading the packs minds.
"Well, if I may," The one named Jasper started. "We believe Victoria has nothing to do with Mitchy's being a full fairy, we believe it to be a new born army." Jasper concluded. "The army is being created by someone we know, since we're the only clan within a thousand mile radius of Seattle and that's where they're being created. We'd think it was the Volturi – a vampire clan in Voltaire, Italy – but, Alice has been watching Aro's – Their head's – decisions, but this could also mean he is letting someone else make the decisions to keep us in the dark."
There was a long pause and Edward translated again. "They want to know why the Volturi would want to create an army to destroy us." Edward turned to the wolves to answer himself. "Aro, has wanted Alice and I to join him and his followers because of our abilities, but he'll know we'll never choose him as long as our family is alive –" Edward was cut off by Carlisle.
"And an army can surely fix that for him."
Edward went on. "But, if Victoria or the Volturi, were able to get their hands on Mitchy or Bella, they'd surely use Mitchy's strength and since Bella isn't human..." Edward trailed off and we all knew what he'd say. A loud growl rumbled in Jacob's chest and I ran my fingers through his fur.
"Don't worry Jacob," Carlisle was assuring. "No one is going to get hurt, but we must be extra cautious." He looked at Jasper who stepped forward.
"We'd like to request another meeting, one that shows our abilities, and I would be teaching numerous things about how new born vampires work and their strengths and weaknesses, this way we have more than one advantage," He paused for a second. "That is if you are willing to fight." He looked at the wolves in a questioning way.
And Edward quickly translated. "Yes, they'd have to protect an imprint, and since she's dripping of power – which any vampire could sense miles away – I'd think it was the best idea."
"Very well," Jasper stepped back and the girl Alice stepped forward grabbing my hand.
"Jacob," She looked up at him. "I would be very grateful if you'd let me talk to Mitchy, alone." She smiled in a positive way, and even if I did just meet her yesterday, I knew she wouldn't do anything to harm anyone.
Jacob let out a loud growl and nodded his head skeptically and I suspected Alice knew what that meant since she thanked him and pulled me into the woods far enough away so that no one could hear her.
She stood in front of me holding my hands in her tiny ones and let out a sigh looking me up and down.
"Mitchy, I have a question for you." She started, and I just nodded unsure. "Please don't get offended, but I just need to know," She paused searching for the right words. "Are you parent's alive?" I most definitely wasn't expecting that, but I shook my head no.
"They died a few months ago, but I still don't know how." I admitted.
"I've seen them, in a vision I had five months ago, and you as well. I'd almost forgotten about this vision until I saw you and recognized you." She went on. "You used to live in Georgia, and the vision was of you running away from something, I couldn't see what it was though, and you ended up here." She went on. "It was one of my most power full visions; there was different time periods put into it, one where you were six, seven, eight, nine, ten and on until now."
I looked down at her hands that still held mine and back up at her face. "I was running from a man that tried to rape and murder me, I'd been running for almost two days straight after my car broke down in Port Angeles."
"That's not it," She looked at my hands in hers, but didn't look back up. "Your parents were murdered, along with another woman." I could feel my heart and stomach collapse. I couldn't keep control of my mind and it took off without warning asking questions I couldn't understand because they were going to fast. And within seconds I had a worrying Alice looking down at me and leaning over me with her cold hand pressed to my forehead.
"I'm sorry," She apologized.
"What did the other woman look like?" It was the only question that I remembered and could comprehend out of the – literally – million's that raced through my mind.
She looked at me confused, probably to why I would ask that question, but answered anyway. "She had wavy dark black hair with gray in it, which hung to her shoulders, and she looked Indian." She started recalling the other woman. "She had dark brown eyes, almost black, and her red nail polish was chipped at the tips. Her cheek bones were a little higher than normal, but that made her all the more beautiful. She had almond shaped eyes and if she were to smile in my vision it would have been the widest smile. She reminded me of you, and I remember the man yelling at her, her name was Sarah."
By the time she finished I was standing again picking a few leaves out of my hair. I guess it really hadn't sunk in that my parent's were murdered and I feared it would, and I knew I wouldn't be able to take it.
I nodded my head and started walking back and I knew I needed to tell Jacob about my parent's, but I needed the right moment.
Everyone still stood in their place except Edward and Bella were missing, and I suspected he took her to get sleep. Jacob looked at me questioning if everything went alright and I could tell I didn't look to perky at the moment. I nodded my head and looked away from him as Alice stood over by Jasper once again.
"Fair well." Carlisle said and in a flash they were gone. Jacob got back down on his belly and pointed to his back with his chin and I knew he wanted me to get on, which is exactly what I did. I felt my eyes droop as Jacob ran through the woods and I soon fell asleep on his back.
I watched as two women – one of them being my mom – lay on the same tables I lay on when I was captured in the woods the day Jacob found me. I'd tried yelling and screaming, and crying, and everything in my power, but nothing woke them up and the door was locked so I sat staring at the two for hours now. And to tell you the truth I was starting to get bored as hell.
I figured out the girl that lay next to my mom was the same girl Alice had seen when I recognized everything about her and she looked exactly the same as Alice described, only prettier.
Moment's later the door to the dark room I sat in the corner of opened, but the light surrounding the figures was to bright and blocked their faces.
My eyes snapped open to a hyperactive Rachel jumping up and down on Jacob's bed. I groaned and rolled over so she was now behind me still jumping.
"Get up! We're going shopping."
Oh-no, Shopping with Rachel had death wish written all over it.
"Is that a threat?" I joked still half asleep.
"Nope, it's a promise, now get up because, this shopping trip has a point."
"Ugh, you're bad enough when there's no point." I laughed halfheartedly rolling over.
"No, really I need your help with something." Her face became serious, but quickly went back to her normal crooked smile. "So get up because we're shopping for more than my point, I really need you do get something." She laughed pulling me out of Jacob's bed, and then I realized Jacob wasn't there.
"Where's Jacob?" I asked pointing to the empty bed.
"Wolf duty I think, but he has someone watching the house around the clock now."
I cocked an eyebrow at her. "I don't think he'd be too happy about me going out without him knowing."
Rachel huffed opening the door. "I asked him, he said no the first time, but since I brought up the full fairy thing, he finally agreed to let me take you to Port Angeles after I begged for like ever." By the time she finished we were in the kitchen doorway.
"Why did he have to say yes?" I asked looking to the sky. Rachel pushed my shoulder playfully and I walked into the kitchen to get something to eat.
"Is she making you go shopping again?" Billy asked from the table leaning back with a cup that had steam coming out of it.
"Yeah, and she's probably going to make me get everything but the building again, even though I'll try to stop her." I laughed grabbing two V8's out of the fridge and passing one to Rachel.
Billy laughed. "I've been trying for years, but nothing seems to work." I laughed along with Billy.
I turned to Rachel. "I'm going to go shower first and then we'll leave." I promised warming up to the idea of taking my mind off the things I found out yesterday.
I sat my drink on the sink and looked at myself in the mirror for a few seconds before opening the shower curtain and starting the hot water. I undressed and stepped in, and immediately I felt a lot better letting the water wash away my troubles.
Soon I was finished and wrapped a towel around myself before getting out. I looked around the bathroom and saw my dirty clothes under my wet feet and remembered I didn't get clothes. I wrinkled my nose and picked up my clothes off the floor and peaked my head out of the bathroom and looked both ways making sure no one was in the hall before jolting straight across the hall into Jacob's room. I shut and locked the door, but remembered my clothes were in Rachel's room and I mentally punched myself.
"Whoa," Someone's voice came from in front of me, but I soon realized it was Jacob. I sighed in relief.
"Can you get my clothes out of Rachel's room? I sort of forgot them before I took a shower."
Jacob chuckled and nodded and walked out and I sat on his bed in a towel waiting for him to come back. I couldn't help but wonder how killing my parent's or why they would but my thoughts were cut off by Jacob coming back into the room with a stack of neatly folded clothes in his hand. He handed them to me and I stood up and let the towel fall and started getting dressed.
Once my undergarments were on I felt a soft warm hand on my back sliding to my stomach and pulling me closer to a toned muscle covered body. I stood in front of the mirror so as soon as Jacob stood up I knew what he was thinking.
I breathed in deeply and closed my eyes as he bent down to trail small quickly kisses down my neck. But I knew I had to stop this before it started or Rachel would throw a fit that I wasn't ready because Jacob and I decided to have sex. I side stepped leaving Jacob kissing the air and giggled at his confused puckered face.
"Rachel would throw a fit and you know it." I laughed throwing on a fake silk tie die blue green and white sundress. I looked down at it and grimaced.
"I was thinking more of, booty shorts and a tank top so I could wear converse or walking shoes, because if I wear this I'll have to wear flats or high heels and if I know Rachel than we'll be walking all over Washington shopping." I put my hands on my hips.
Jacob cocked an eyebrow at me confused. "And I'm supposed to know that?"
All I did was laugh and started toward Rachel's room to find something a little different to wear so I could walk better.
When I got there I opened the door to her and Paul sprawled out on her bed making out and acting like I wasn't even there.
"Yeah, just came to get some clothes." They still didn't notice me and I just rolled my eyes and walked over to her dresser and grabbed the first few things in there, which happened to be white Bermuda shorts and a light purple tank top that was Rachel's and quickly grabbed a pare of light purple converse out of the closet before anything got to serious between the two of them.
I shivered and calmly walked back to Jacob's room my eye still twitching and him laughing at my expression.
"Oh, yeah, Paul and Rachel are having a get together; did I forget to tell you?" He joked. I rolled my eyes and fake laughed throwing off the sundress. His laughing stopped and he watched me get dressed little by little. And soon there was a knock at the door, and a dazed Rachel sat in front of a really happy looking Paul.
"Yeah, I don't even want to know, let's just get out of here." I giggled taking her hand and having Paul and Jacob laugh at my comment.
Rachel pulled into the parking lot of the same mall we went to on the first day I met them and hopped out excited. She grabbed my hand tugging me to the entrance like she'd never seen a mal before; and we all know that's a lie. Before I knew it I was already holding a whole rack of clothes that would never fit me in a million years. Rachel directed me over to the counter and I dropped the clothes on the counter and Rachel – as usual – paid for her stuff and dragged me to some other store. I was surprised when she stopped in front of a Rite Aid and took the numerous bags I had from my arms.
"Why are we here?" I asked pointing to the front entrance.
"Can you do something for me?" Her voice didn't sound as excited as it usually would.
"Yeah, sure what?"
She gulped down and gave me twenty dollars. "Go get me three pregnancy tests?" My eyes widened and I took the money nodding my head giving her a look that said 'you're going to tell me everything later'. I took off and left Rachel waiting outside of the doors, and I didn't blame her, I'd be embarrassed to get them too if I was the one that was pregnant. I walked up and down the isles and finally found what I was looking for and got three different brands. There was no line, which I was lucky for since I wanted nothing more than to get out of there. I sat the tests down on the counter and waited for the cashier to finally give me a total.
"$16.19," She said and I handed her the twenty and tapped my fingers watching Rachel pace outside the door. She suddenly stopped and her eyes widened and she turned to me waving for me to hurry. I didn't know what she saw, but by her reaction I knew it wasn't good. The cashier handed me my change and the respite and I ran out running into something that felt like a brick wall and dropping the bag on the floor spilling the contents of it.
"What's that?" I knew that voice way to well to mistake it.
