So…yeah….I'm back! :D YAY! Pleeeeeeeease bare with me guys. I was at writers block but I got rid of it so now I shall continue our faithful story! Training for the war begins and Schyler gets to show off her powers!

Alright so *claps* I, Niomi, do not own Twilight the series and/or its characters. Only my own characters belong to me!

Sooo enjoy!

I watched as Emmett flew across the area, landing on his back. I was standing next to Rosalie, watching as Jasper stood correctly. It was like my training at the Cullens but we were against each other instead of just me, out in the forest. Emmett stood again, dirt falling off of him as he looked at Jasper.

"Again."

I tore my gaze from the two siblings fighting over to the silver jeep as it came to a stop. Edward and Bella got out, and Edward saw a charm Jacob had given her.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Rosalie questioned.

I looked at her and saw her frowning at me. I had on some dark blue cargo jeans with a black tank and a dark blue jacket. My hair was down like always but that didn't matter to me.

"Yeah…" I looked away from her, looping my hair behind my ear as Bella and Edward walked over to us, "My problem is showing what I am," I admitted quietly, glancing at her.

Rosalie nodded silently when Emmett came up, wrapping an arm around her. Jasper did the same to Alice and Esme and Carlisle stood together.

I grabbed my arm a bit awkwardly and looked up when Bella and Edward spoke to each other. I didn't really speak at all, and shifted uncomfortably, thinking of the fact all of the truth was about to come out very soon.

Hearing some snaps of twigs I looked up at the top of the hill. Soon my brown eyes caught sight of the wolf pack, the large animals being quite hard to miss. They stepped over branches their large paws causing indents in the dirt floor before they came to a stop just a few feet away from us.

Paul growled lowly but caught sight of me in the front and stopped along with Embry and Quil.

"They don't trust us enough to be in their human forms," Edward explained, looking at us. I nodded in understanding, seeing Jacob on the other side of Sam who was in the front.

"They came. That's all that matters," I said quietly, looking at Carlisle. He nodded, putting a hand on my shoulder as he motioned to the pack.

"Will you translate?" he questioned Edward, who nodded. Alice stood next to Bella as I waved at Seth and Jacob some.

"Hey," I mumbled softly. Seth whined at my hello and Jake put his head down some, then Carlisle spoke.

"Welcome." I watched Sam stare at Carlisle, his eyes trained on his hand that was on my shoulder. I wasn't as relaxed as I should have been with Carlisle by my side, but he wasn't the problem. Carlisle looked at them all and nodded.

"Jasper has experience with newborns. He'll teach us how to defeat them," he started, motioning to Jasper.

Jasper stepped next to me, his hands behind his back as he nodded respectfully. Edward looked at Carlisle.

"They wanna know how they differ from us," he stated. Frowning as he thought shortly about the question he let his eyes fall over all of them.

"They're a great deal stronger than us, because their own human blood lingers in their tissues. Our kind…is never more physically powerful…then in our first several months of this life," Carlisle said nodding. Jasper took that time to speak.

"Carlisle's right. That's why they are…created," he started, stepping forwards. He threw his voice so we could all hear him. I shifted my weight, crossing my arms as I watched him.

"A newborn army doesn't need thousands like a human army. But no human army could stand against them," he said nodding.

The look in Jasper's eye told me he wasn't speaking just from reading books. It was personal experience. It made me nervous. Fighting against vampires sounded hard enough, and it was when I trained with them, but fighting newborns was a whole new thing.

It seemed like I was going to be training my ass off too.

"Now the two most important things to remember are first, never let them get their arms around you. They'll crush you instantly." I looked over at him normally but franticness flashed through my features that he caught. I saw him smirk faintly as he paced slowly in the front.

"And second…never go for the obvious kill. They'll be expecting that. And you…will lose…"

Excitement burst through me at the sound of a fight and I felt the wind pick up. The pack looked at me when my hair floated some but I controlled it, letting it blow out. Jasper turned around and nodded.

"Emmett, Schyler." Emmett flashed next to me and smirked. I nodded instantly, a smirk twisting on my mouth and we walked on some. Demonstration time.

I cracked my neck, rolling my shoulders, standing a good yard away from the vampire. He nodded his head.

"Ready, spider monkey?"

I smiled, setting my feet, "Don't hold back."

"Not in my nature," Emmett stated positioning. I felt the unease from Bella and the pack, even hearing Seth whine. It brought to my attention how much of my power I needed to tap into to show I could do this. I looked at Jasper and Carlisle who both nodded staring at me.

I turned to Emmett, breathing out, and slowing things down before nodding. Suddenly it snapped back into motion and he moved.

I spread my feet and Emmett grasped me by my sides, tackling me. We slid across the ground as I used my strength to slow us down. He growled and flipped me up, throwing me in the air.

I breathed out and things slowed down again, my heart in my ears. I spun in the air a few times before my feet planted on the ground. I smirked bring my head up and stared as he came at me again.

I dropped moving my body through his feet and snapped back with a back flip. Emmett caught my legs quickly and I balanced on my hand. I twisted my feet, locking them around his neck, and spun off with a yell out.

Soon we flipped and landed hard on the ground. Emmett was fast, but I was faster.

I got up quickly and he swung a punch at me instantly. I ducked using wind and shoved him back in his chest. He grunted and I moved my hands, swinging them around my body and he lifted high into the air.

Flipping I swung my arms down twice and watched as Emmett landed hard on his back, shutting his eyes.

"Goddamn wind."

I kept my stance low to the ground before I saw he waved his hand some, grunting to get up. Jasper stood by him with his hands behind his back and nodded smirking down at Emmett.

"Never…lose focus."

I stood normally and grinned. I did it! I beat Emmett and showed everyone. I nodded my head and Jasper walked back over.

"Next!"

I sauntered over to Emmett and he glared up at my beaming form.

"Oh shut up, ya damn Avatar," he grumbled standing. I watched him dust himself off and felt my mouth open. I was not balled! He shrugged walking back to the group as Edward and Carlisle stood there and I followed butthurt.

"Hey don't get mad I beat your ass."

"Shut up, dog lover." I laughed as he messed up my hood and we waited.

Edward and Carlisle went at it and I couldn't help but laugh amused as they spared. It was always amusing watching them fight because it was more of a father son bonding then a real spar. It made me think of what Emmett and I must have looked like. Blurs to the eyes of the others yet both of us smiling at the same time.

I looked over at Jacob when I felt he was staring at me worriedly. It seemed I had more proving to do. I smiled shortly at him before turning my attention back to Ed Boy and Carlisle.

Edward pinned down Carlisle and looked at Jasper.

Jasper shrugged walking by them easily, "One more thing." I jumped when Carlisle got up and slammed Edward to the floor, "Don't turn your back on the enemy."

I laughed at his obvious statement. After what seemed like forever on different spars, it was my turn again against Rose. I looked at her and she flashed me a brilliant smile.

Rose and I fighting had always been interesting. She was elegant and natural and I was analytical and fast. We would see how our blurred forms would work.

I set my feet before soon spinning to avoid her attack. I stopped just as she did and we both traded a few fists. I did a flip and kicked up for her chin but as suspected and did the same and we both locked legs.

I grunted and grabbed her wrist, pulling it from under her and made her collapse. She moved before I could fall on top of her and quickly came down on my face. I went wide eyed and rolled as her foot met the ground, leaving a dent where my head just was.

I stood and breathed out frowning, "Geez."

The blonde shrugged and I rolled my eyes before reaching in my pocket. She came at me quickly and just as she did I brought my hand to my mouth and blew out gently. Fire exploded from my breath and she dove to the ground before it could touch her.

Now I knew how to control it. Well. Fire and wind were the specialties I had for now. The water and earth thing not so much. Those were what I needed to focus on.

Even so as the flames licked her clothing it didn't burn her skin once, being careful of that. I glanced over at Bella who was, of course, shielded by Edward and the others. Seth barked once and the other pack members made their own sounds.

I looked at Rose feeling slightly accomplished as I battled her with fire. The lighter went back into my pocket and I danced around her moves easily.

It felt more at ease being able to be more open with everyone about my gifts…my problems. The base of the fire that stayed in my hand glowed blue while the deadly flames beamed orange and red.

Rosalie and I moved some more before I was caught off guard. She swept her leg under both of mine and unexpectedly everything slowed. I gasped out, my heart skipping a beat in my ears, and the flames instantly died in my hand.

Shutting my eyes tightly, I slammed my back onto the ground and covered the pain in my chest.

"Sky!" I sat up instantly, shaking my head.

"No, no. I'm fine," I mumbled. Carlisle kneeled and nodded, moving my hair from my face.

"You did well. It's time for a break anyways. You've held out against many of us for more than an hour. That exceeds your normal training." I looked at him warily and he smiled warmly. Esme put a hand on my head.

"Yes, dear. It's time to rest. Remember that you are human. You've done very well." I nodded and stood. Rosalie stood by me as we all headed our ways and nodded her head, looking me over.

"You did good," she said easily. I rubbed my sore head and looked at my shaking hand.

"You beat my ass. I think I had a side effect. Heart couldn't take it," I explained. I watched her stare at me before smiling a little and walking with Emmett.

I stood there for a moment longer before turning and about running into a dog. A big dog. I shook my head and smiled softly, rubbing Seth's head.

"Hey. Bet you laughed didn't you." I giggled softly as he licked my face before I rubbed the fur on his head. I stared at him and put both of my hands on his face.

"Be safe alright…I don't want you getting too wild up for this…" I watched him nod slowly before licking me again and walking off with Sam.

"Schyler!" I looked over at Emmett and he nodded, "Done for the day!"

I nodded easily, looking over at Jacob as Jacob and Bella…well Bella talked. Edward came over and soon that was the end of that. I watched Jacob walk away and stepped before appearing in front of him.

Jacob blinked his big brown dog eyes and I smiled sadly.

"I know…you dislike this," I mumbled. He didn't say anything, but those big eyes couldn't hide anything from me. I sighed and put a hand on his head, my other one under his chin. I looked his russet fur over, speaking softly.

"I know you love her, Jacob. You don't have to keep trying to hide it." I looked him in the eye and nodded, "I know you love me too. You're trying to keep us safe."

Jacob stared at me before whining some. My heart clenched. It was bad enough when a dog whined and I just wanted to hug it anyways…but Jacob as a dog! That was just unfair.

I sighed sadly at his continued soft whining and he nudged my face. I got the message. He didn't want me to have any part in this. Even as he knew my gifts now. I hugged him and also knew…he understood I was going to anyways. I put my face in his furry neck before pulling away.

I looked at him and smiled. I knew what would make him feel better.

"I'll be over there soon….okay? All of you can talk and bitch at me then," I laughed dully. He licked my face more than once and I laughed nodding.

"Alright alright! Now go before you get in trouble."

He licked me another time before getting up the hill and running after the pack. I stared after him and sighed. It would be crazy now.

As expected the instant I arrived at Jacob's house…it was interrogating time. I sat on the couch with the mug of hot coco in my hands and Jacob was in front of me with his arms folded.

I didn't look at him and instead rolled my eyes when Paul spoke again.

"It's no fucking wonder you flipped me over your shoulder!" I looked at him dully once again, my hair in my face some and I nodded.

"Ya done? That's like the fifth time you've said that." He clenched his jaw before looking away with the cross of his arms.

"I'm just sayin-!"

"Yeah you're done." Quil put a hand on his shoulder, his eyes shut and he sighed softly. I looked away from the entire pack and Sam shook his head, crossing his arms.

"You shoulder have told us, Schyler. That's a valuable piece of information." I lifted my eyes to him when he said that and frowned standing.

"Why so that you could use it against the Cullens?" I asked accusingly. Sam didn't say anything and instead frowned hard and I nodded up at him.

"That's it."

"We didn't say that, Schyler-"

"You didn't have to!" I snapped looking at him. I motioned to the others and shook my head again before looking at Jacob, "Look at how you're reacting now and I even SHOWED you what I could do!"

Jacob rubbed his temple shaking his head and motioned for me to sit, "Schyler, it's because of the fact we need to know these things.."

I looked at him raising a brow, "Why?"

"To keep you safe!"

The other members of the pack stood back as we glared at each other and I was so set on hitting Jacob it wasn't even funny. We'd been doing this for about an hour and it was almost a flash back of before when Jake and I fought in the front yard.

But he was right.

"Fine," I muttered shutting my eyes. I looked away and folded my arms, my back to them all.

Jake blinked and Paul looked at me suspiciously, "Fine?" I looked at them all again and nodded. I shrugged a little, glancing to the side while thinking about it.

"Well, yeah. I mean sure I had my reasons to keep the secret but I still should have at least told you guys something was going on. It was just too personal I guess." I shook my head looking down and shuffling my feet, "I mean it's bad enough you guys don't trust me now…so…"

Jared tapped Quil a bit and then Quil looked at Paul. I stared at all of them as this happened and then Paul sighed dramatically, looking up and then stepping forwards.

"We…." He nodded his head some, his arms unfolding and he sighed, "We're sorry…for pushing lately." I was very confused as I watched him and Embry nodded from the other side of the room, behind Sam.

"Yeah, Sky. It's not that we don't trust you. It's just hard to read you sometimes, ya know?" he admitted shrugging.

I rose a brow looking at him. Hard to read..? Really….Jacob sighed and then touched my locket motioning around, "Point is no more secrets. How are we suppose to trust each other if there's secrets..?"

In a way he made sense but what didn't make sense was the fact he was just speaking on behalf of the pack. I nodded up at him and then frowned softly.

"No more secrets…both of us," I breathed. Jacob got the meaning as our brown eyes locked and he nodded softly.

"Promise."

I grabbed my own locket with his hand and sighed before wrapping my arms around him. I put my ear over his heart, shutting my eyes some and thought about it. I was no longer comfortable with this situation…nothing. Jacob was in danger…Seth was. The Cullens. Bella. Me..

Shutting my eyes I almost whimpered some, Jacob's warm arms around my form protectively.

I just wanted the war to be over.

YAY! Secrets are out and that means I can move on with like, life! Yeah…alright review and I shall catch up with missed chapters! 3
