Chapter 2: Meeting the Family

Ivy

After I went through all that stuff, I finally got to the place where people are waiting. Mom said that she and Daniel would have a sign with my name on it. I looked around until I saw the sign. I walked over and found my mom and my brother. I ran over and gave them both big hugs.

"Hey lil sis!" Daniel said

"Hey Danni, and I'm not your little sis. We're the same age."

"Yeah, yeah. I know, but you are shorter than me."

"That's to be expected."

"Hey Ivy," my mom cut in

"Hey mom."

My family and I had been talking but we hadn't actually seen each other in forever. I had gotten to know my brother once I remembered, but now that I saw him, I knew he was my brother. We had similar features and his eyes held the same lively hood in them as mine. I could tell we were twins.

"Come on Daniel, let's get Ivy and her stuff to her car. She must be exhausted. "

"Yeah, I am, just a little bit. I just have a backpack and suitcase though. The rest is coming in a moving van. I don't have that much. I just have one small box of mementoes I can carry it, plus my suitcase has wheels."

"Ok, but Daniel, you take her backpack since she's being stubborn."

"Fine, I'll let him take my backpack, but there is no way I'm not taking my suitcase."

"Great! Now let's get home before your dad dose."

Finally we arrived at our house. The ride home was interesting, we talked about what had been going on the last ten years. When we walked up to the house mom stopped and rang the doorbell, there was no sound. She took out her key and inserted it into the lock. She unlocked the door then we all filed into the kitchen. Mom began to cook dinner, which was pasta, while Daniel and I talked. I remembered a question I'd had for a while, so I asked

"Hey Daniel, do you know why you weren't put up for adoption?"

We heard a spoon drop behind us.

"Why wasn't I sent away, Mom?" Daniel asked turning around.

"Um…maybe eventually your father will tell you, but I can't." she stuttering

"Is Dad going to be home soon?" I asked

"He should be here soon, his job schedule is very unpredictable. It becomes even more so on busy days. They have been really busy lately, so hopefully soon. You know what, I'll call your aunt Emily, Sam works with your dad so if he's home I can talk to him about where your father is." She said it like it was a lie mixed with a ton of worry, but then again if you didn't realize that she was lying then you were an idiot. Unfortunately, my brother was that idiot.

My mom walked over to the phone and called our Aunt Emily.

"Hey Em, is Sam there?" my mom asked

Silence

"Can you put him on?"

Silence

"Hello Sam, its Crystal. Do you know if Embry's still out?"

Some more silence.

"Um, yeah…Daniels in the kitchen with me plus a special guest." She turned around and smiled at me.

More silence for the world

"How about you come over and see, bring Emily to. Plus you might want to get here before Embry dose, he doesn't know yet, so hurry over."

More and more silence.

"OK, see you in a minute." She hung up.

"OK, Ivy, do you want to go change into some fresh cloths before Sam and Emily come over?"

"Nah, I'm fine. Can me and Daniel go and play while we wait."

"Yes, that will be fine. And when they come Daniel will come out first then go back and bring you out, I want it to be a huge surprise."

"That a great idea, come on Ivy, let's go play something so I can beat you." He said smiling

We went into the living room were Daniel walked over to the TV to put Mario Kart into the Wii. We just did it with us, no CPU's or random people. We did a set of three and I creamed him at every one. He looked at me with shock after I kicked his butt on the third race and I burst out laughing.

"How are you so good?" he asked

"One, it's my favorite game. Two, it's the only one I own so I just played it over and over. You want to see me cream you at Rainbow Road?" I asked with a huge grin

"We'll do time trials, I'll go first." He played rainbow road and fell off at least ten times. His time was over five minutes. After he was done I took the controller. Mom called him about half way through the race so he went out to the kitchen. When I was on the final stretch I heard Uncle Sam and Aunt Emily come in and mom tell Daniel to go get me. He came in and saw me finish with a minute thirty seconds. I also had one mushroom left. When I saw his face I burst out laughing again. When he held out his hand to help me up I stopped laughing and took it although I was still smiling widely. He held my hand then we walked into the kitchen. I saw Sam and Emily looking at my mom with their backs to us. Daniel cleared his throat. When Emily and Sam turned around they were frozen in shock.

"Hi?" I asked a little worried. Just then Emily ran over and pulled me into a big hug. At that Sam snapped out of his shock, and then he walked over to me and Emily and hugged us both.

Sam back away but Emily still kept her arm around my shoulder. Sam looked over at my mom with a worried look.

"Dose Embry know?" he asked

"No, he doesn't, that's partially why I wanted you here before he came home."

Sam turned and looked at me and Daniel. "Could I talk to your mom in private for a minute?" he asked

Daniel and I walked out of the room but as I turned the corner, I stopped suddenly. I had heard Sam say "Dose Seth know?" but I didn't hear anymore because Daniel dragged me away.

Seth. That name made the pulling come back. It was name I screamed out at night. Who was this Seth? Was Seth the person in my dreams that was staring at me? Daniel and I went back to playing and even though I kept spacing out I was still kicking his butt. I heard the door open and close and I saw Daniel stiffen next to me. It was my father.

"Hey Crystal, oh, Sam, Emily. What are you doing here?" I heard him say.

"Daniel!" my mom called

He walked into the kitchen

"Daniel, can you bring in our little guest?"

Daniel came back in and pulled me up from the floor. I held onto his hand as I walked behind him. When we got to the kitchen my dad said.

"So where is our little guest?"

Daniel squeezed my hand, then I stepped out from behind him slowly.

"Hi…Dad." I said softly

He turned around to look at my mom "Crystal, why is she here?"

That set me off "Maybe it's because I wanted to come back to my family after I was abandoned! Maybe it's because I didn't want to not remember my past. Maybe it's because I wanted to see my aunts and uncles again!" I yelled

My dad stayed silent. He stood there shaking violently. What the hell was wrong with him? How could he not want me here? I turned around and ran out of the room, up the stairs, and into the hall way. I had no idea which room was mine so I walked past an open door and looked inside. It was Daniel's room. I ran in and closed the door. I sat on the bed and put my head in my hands and burst into tears. A minute later I heard the door open so I looked up to see Daniel looking at me.

"Sorry I took your bed, I can't remember were my room is." I said softly.

"It's ok, if you want you can spend the night with me like we did when we were little."

"Yeah, I think I need that. Just one thing though. If I start screaming and clawing at my chest, go get mom immediately. Then when you come back do your best to wake me up."

"Oh, yeah, I heard mom talking about that once. Who knows, maybe now that your back it won't happen that often."

"Yeah, maybe."

I saw the beautiful being standing by my door

"Come with me." He said

I got on his back and he started running. Trees zoomed by as he ran. It was freezing cold. We arrived at the meadow. Run and hide. Those were what my instincts said. Hide under a tree. He came back with a beautiful woman by his side. They knew exactly where I was. Wolves run by chasing the inhuman people. Leah found me, she picked me up. A guy staring at me. Jake talking to me. Leah punching him. Taking me home. Finding my parents. Listening to them talk about my adoption. Leah yelling. Her brother, Seth, imprinting on me, me thinking what that was. Being sent away. The dreams starting. All the memories of my life flooding past me. They didn't stop until I went through all of them.

I woke up screaming even louder than I had before. Daniel had his hand on my arm. I guessed he was trying to wake me up. I looked at the door and I saw my mom gawking at me. I looked down, there was blood gushing from the scratches. I looked back up and saw my dad looking like he was disappointed. How could he be? It was his damn fault that this was happening. Everything suddenly when black.

I woke up with my chest aching. I saw Daniel staring at me and I could see mom yelling at dad in the hallway.

"How are you feeling?" Daniel asked

"I'm fine, my chest is just a little sore."

"How can you only be a little sore from that?"

I looked down at my hands in my lap. "I had a couple that were a little better than this one, all of them happened on my birthday. It's whenever I have one dream, this time there was a lot more, I guess I know why it was worse then."

"I guess I know now, how long have the dreams been happening?"

"They started about a year after I left, they were just little blips, and so I didn't scream and claw at my chest. Than every year on my birthday since I was ten they got a little worse. After that they started to happen a little more often. Then on my 13th birthday it got a lot worse and they began to happen every night. It always the same main idea though…" I said

"What's the main idea?"

"When we went to Colorado for my fourth birthday I got kidnapped but I ended up back in La Push. Then some of my aunts and uncles came and this guy I haven't seen before is staring at me. I just don't know what's going on, all I know is that I wasn't kidnapped by a human."

"What do you mean 'not human'?"

"Well, his eyes were blood red, his skin was freezing cold, he ran from Colorado to Washington in about an hour, maybe less, and I was like he could sense were I was when I hid under the tree."

"This maybe just me, but I don't think we should tell mom and dad about what you just said."

"As soon as we get out of here, let's go see Leah."

"I agree."
