Okay, so after many hours of brainsotrming and an entire day getting chased by my psychotic friend weilding a video camera, a water bottle, and a NERF shotgun, I FINALLY managed to write chapter 5! But it is not the end! There is still one more chapter, and a possible sequel. and some of you might hate me for what happens in this chapter. Read please! (btw the psychotic friend is the same one who chased me with a katana. Some people know what I'm talking about.) Also there are lots of POVs in this chapter, sorry.

Seth's POV

I was curled up on the metal floor of the cage when I spark of electricity jolted from sleep. All my hair stood on end and I backed away from the source. Kelly stood there glaring at me coldly.

"We're leaving now."

She picked up my cage with one hand and carried it out the door. The newborns were either mulling about or fighting. Maria stood at the door with Veronica, Cyrus, and Logan

"You said we weren't attacking until two more days had passed!" I yelled angrily.

"But it will take two whole days to get these newborns to Forks without losing any of them," she replied happily, "We're leaving now."

The newborns looked excited.

"Now, the pixie won't see us, and we can move," said Maria. Then she turned to the thirty or so newborns. "Let's go!"

With a sinking heart, I watched the newborns roar in anticipation and charge out of the room into the darkness.

"Why did you decide to make the army so far away from them?" I heard Veronica ask Maria.

"Because if I made one too close to them, like that stupid redhead, then they would get suspicious. An army being built halfway across the country wouldn't worry them."

Kelly began to run after that, and I was jostled around in the cage. I didn't catch anything else said.

The army continued its rampage across Texas.

Leah's POV

We made it to Seattle the next day, having traveled throughout the day and night, because it was a cloudy day. I was barely controlling my happiness. Seth was going to be home! Demetri had hinted that he would be there before us!

I burst through the door to the Cullen's house.

"Seth!" I called. There was no answer.

"Seth!" I called again, running through the house's floors and even the backyard.

He's probably back at the house, expecting me to be there, I thought, unperturbed.

I dashed outside and shot across the border. Jacob, Quil, and Embry, who had just arrived, phased and followed me. I got there first, and ran inside. My mom was still at work. I ran throughout the smaller house, calling Seth's name over and over. I finally stopped at his room. It was still as it had been the day he disappeared.

At that moment, realization crashed over me. Seth wasn't here. Demetri had lied to us. Seth wasn't here at all. He was still missing. I didn't break down again like I had in Denver, but when Jacob, Quil and Embry came in, their eyes widened and they cast worried glances at me as they averted their eyes.

"Leah, what happened?" asked Quil, "You're as white as a sheet."

I didn't answer. Jacob nodded slowly, as if confirming something.

"Seth's not here, is he?"

"No," I gasped. Quil and Embry exchanged a look, and ducked out the door into the yard. Jacob grabbed my wrist and pulled me with them.

"C'mon, we're going to the Cullens. We need to figure out something to do."

Seth's POV

The army stopped after arriving in Montana. Maria had Cyrus create a wall of ice that prevented the newborns from escaping. It was several yards thick. He was throwing icicles at the wall, watching me with a faint, cold smile.

"Cyrus, Maria wants you, Kelly, and Logan to go separate Max and Daniel. They're fighting again."

Veronica stood next to the cage, smiling too. But she was smiling out of happiness, where as Cyrus was amused. But her happiness could only mean my pain. Sure enough, when Cyrus left, Veronica kicked the cage over and grabbed my arm, preparing to burn me again. I used whatever strength I had left to attempt to pull away, but she was too strong. I refused to make a sound as she continued to mangle me.

After the ordeal, I curled up and attempted to sleep while rubbing the wounds. The first burns from the night before had pretty much healed, but the new ones would take another day to mend.

"It's not going to get better," remarked Kelly, who had appeared, back from Max and Daniel's fight.

"You do realize you're nothing to us? You're just a tool to be used until that use has been fulfilled, and then you will be disposed of. And guess what?" She leaned close and out her lips to my ear. "The time for that is approaching fast. Savor breathing. You won't being doing it much longer."

And with that, she stalked away.

I studied the four of them. Kelly had blonde hair, which was cut short and spiky. She was very thin and small, like Alice. Logan had serious eyes with brown hair and a rough face. He was burly, with powerful muscles. Cyrus had white hair. He looked very plain, in contrast to the others. Veronica had long, dark hair that flooded her face and partially obscured her eyes. She had the appearance of a madwoman.

She felt my gaze and glared, sending a small flame shooting across the floor and knocking the cage over.

I leaned against the cool bars of the cage and tried to get some sleep.

Leah's POV

When we arrived at the Cullen's house, Edward had gathered the problem in an instant. He and Jasper began discussing things along with Emmett in an undertone.

"Leah, we don't know where to go," Carlisle said, "We can't go running off again to look for him. I'm sorry, but until we get some information, we'll have to stay here and hope that Seth comes to us."

I glared at him furiously before flopping down on a couch and trying to envision Seth returning home. It made me relax; despite the fact that I knew the vision was not real.

There was a loud noise, like glass shattering. Alice had frozen and Emmett, who was walking behind her, had slammed into her and knocked over a vase.

"Alice?" Bella asked warily, "What is it?"

"Nothing," she said. Emmett snorted.

"Yeah right! What did you see?"

"Nothing. I saw nothing. Everyone in this room," she motioned towards all of us. "They're all vanished. Wiped off the planet. There's something coming."

Edward was the first to move out of the silence.

"Whatever it is, we have to find out what's going to destroy us and stop it."

"I don't know if we'll be destroyed, but the outcome of the battles to come is undecided. There's something blocking my vision!"

"We need to move. Where's the blind spot coming from?"

"The meadow. There's something there…"

Then let's go.

Seth's POV

They were gradually getting restless. Maria seemed worried. So, as soon as the sun set, Cyrus removed the ice and the newborns charged towards Forks. Maria carried my cage. She promised that my death would be quick. I didn't believe her. I was more worried about my family and friends who would surely die in this attack.

The army cleared the remaining area and reservation came into view. I was so close to my home, but not able to go it. Maria ushered the newborns past, and we appeared in the meadow where we had fought Victoria's army.

"It is time," said Maria.

Leah's POV

Jacob had gotten Sam's pack to join us. Now we stood in the meadow. Alice said that was where her blind spot was strongest. And we waited for the threat to approach.

One by one, newborns hurtled into our midst. They stood stock, controlled by a single vampire who stood in front of them.

"Maria," Jasper breathed.

"You know her?" I demanded.

"It's a long story."

I focused on the object in Maria's hand. It was a metal cage, and inside it, was a figure. UI strained to see how it was, but the person was unrecognizable, they had shielded their face from view. Then they moved, and raised their head.

It was Seth.

But it was not the same Seth as I had known before. He had a defeated expression, and his face was dead. His hair was longer, and he had ugly burns covering his body. I shuddered and growled at the vampire. Seth's gaze snapped to me. He looked at me wonderingly, and I smiled. But I was angry. He had been tortured grievously, and I longed to rip apart the bitch responsible.

We phased into wolves, and the Cullens tensed.

Maria signaled with her hand, and the newborns charged. I saw Jasper rip one apart and charge into Maria, sending him, her, and Seth rolling out of the battlefield and into the trees. I tried to run forward, but a newborn got in the way and I had to defend myself.

Seth's POV

When Jasper slammed into Maria and knocked the cage out of her hand, it went flying into a rock and the latch broke. I scrambled out of it and backed away from the vampires fighting. Maria then roared, and tow newborns came out of the trees and attacked Jasper. I phased immediately and tackled her. She flipped me aside and kicked me. The two newborns pinned Jasper, and Maria walked slowly over to him.

"Time to die," she said sweetly.

I did the only thing Ii could to save Jasper. I slammed into him. He flew out of the newborns grip and back into the battlefield. Maria whirled on me. She flew at me, but I dodged and moved back. She was about to attack again when something invisible connected with her and she flew into a tree. I looked around for the source and found it immediately.

Blaine.

He was standing next to a tree, glaring at Maria with awful coldness. I finally saw what he looked like. Blaine's hair was jet-black, and he was fit, but not burly like Logan or skinny like Kelly. He seemed rather short, though not as small as Alice.

"How-?" Maria began, but Blaine tackled her and they rolled on the ground for several seconds. Then a fireball slammed into Blaine and knocked him backwards next to me. Veronica stood in the direction that the newborns had come from. Kelly, Logan, and Cyrus stood with her. Blaine built up his power and released it at the newborns. Logan deflected it, and a battle of immense proportions began. Flashing lights, bangs, and screams echoed through the air. So caught up in the battle, I didn't see Maria until it was too late.

"No!"

She grabbed Blaine's arm and pulled it clean off. He howled in agony and struck with his remaining limb. She flew next to me. In an instant decision, I grabbed her head in my jaws and ripped it off.

Maria stopped struggling immediately.

Blaine, face contorted in pain, began to stitch the wound. He then released a blast of power that left a crater in the ground. When the dust cleared, everyone still stood. Veronica then glanced at Maria's body. With a howl of rage, she let loose one more volley of fireballs. Then she and her siblings disappeared into trees. Blaine then looked at me, exhaustion straining his features.

He began to rip Maria's body into chunks. I helped. When we were done, he continued treating the wound. After testing that his arm would work properly, he turned to me. "I have to go." I phased back to human.

"What? No! You can stay with us!" I protested, but he held up a hand.

"I'll come back if I can, but I have to hunt down the four of them. They will only get more dangerous as time goes on."

I knew he was right. But still…"Are you sure?"

He nodded. "I'm the only one who can stop them. I have to do this. But thank you for helping me. Without you, I probably wouldn't have survived the first few days."

"Wait, how did you survive?" I asked as he began to walk away from the sounds of battle.

He smiled. "I coated myself a layer of power. It acted as a physical shield, which protected me from the explosion. It also rendered me invisible because it bended the light. I didn't plan that. Then I tried to find you, but I couldn't. I assumed that Maria had taken you, so I went to Forks to warn your friends. But then the battle started, and I went to look for Maria."

I nodded. That explained everything.

"Go," Blaine said, gesturing towards the battle, "They're waiting for you. The battle has been won, by the way, I can hear it."

I nodded. "Thanks Blaine." It was all I could say.

He smiled sadly, and walked into the woods, disappearing from sight.

I began to walk towards the clearing again. Leah was there, and my pack and the Cullens-

A roar shook the air. I whirled around and saw one of the newborns that had tackled Jasper. He was missing an arm, and chunks were coming off him. But nevertheless he bellowed and charged at me. I didn't have time to defend myself as he slammed into me. I briefly felt myself fly through the air before I crashed into a tree, toppling it over. I felt bones break, but I didn't know which ones. Through my closing eyelids I saw the newborn approach. I couldn't move at all, I was wracked with pain. He smiled, and then, right there, I passed out.

And, cue the hating of me! Hahaha! Lovelyyuyu, you will hate me, but there's still another chapter. So, what happens in the next chapter will decide if he lives or dies, idk. Maybe ill flip a coin...

Anyways, thanks to Lovelyyuyu, xxxMe Myself and Ixxx, marsbareater12, and Tem Seth . Leah and Jake for reviewing! Please review again!
