This story takes place during Eclipse and the Flock broke up after book three, pretend Ari never died but he went his own way.
Btw, no more Bella, she is going to be purely Max from now to the end of the story.
Thank you guys so much for all your lovely review! I got 8 which was a lot more then what I had been expecting.
Ari stepped out of the darkness . . .
At this point about a hundred different thoughts were going through my head.
Save him and give up my secret?
Or
Let him be, and live with the guilt of never really knowing my one and only true blood brother?
Of course I choose option one! I love my brother! But is it really worth giving up my secret? I looked at Ari. He was morphed into his wolf form; scratched up, bruised and bleeding. The way he normally looks like after a fight with me or the flock. I thought all Erasers were exterminated, though. Obviously, I had been severely misinformed and very,verywrong.
Ari paced back and forth in his small area of place. He growled at them menacingly. I watched the Cullen's and the pack's eyes widen as they were taken by surprise.
"Is he one of yours?" Sam shook his head. "Maybe he's friendly?" Carlisle suggested. As if on cue, Ari let out a threatening growl, and made a face that can only be described as a vicious smile.
Damn it Ari, you're really asking for a death wish buddy.
"Or not," Emmett said with a smile of his own. I saw Jasper grinning at him too. Ari let out a growl that sounded like a challenge. The pack got to their feet and stood alongside the Cullen's. They slowly walked toward Ari. It was all very dramatic.
MAX!
I can't! I'm not stronger then the vampires!
Yes you are Max . . .
Well looks like my fate is already decided. I circled around back so I was facing the same direction Ari was, toward the Cullen's and the pack. Jasper and Emmett were the first to charge, growling and hissing ferociously. Suddenly I was infuriated, seeing them attack my baby brother. Rage supplied my veins with adrenaline. I tucked my wings in and I dove down, landing behind the trees. Emmett and Jasper had their hands around his neck. Sam was clawing at Ari's already bleeding face.
I let out an infuriated screech.
Edward POV:
I watched my brothers and Sam take this wolf down.
Rosalie was thinking about how the wind is affecting her hair.
Alice was watching out for Jasper.
Jasper and Emmett were thinking; 'Finally a wolf we can kill!'
Carlisle and Esme were watching the creature in dismay
The pack was wondering who and what this creature was.
I would help my arrogant brothers in the fight, but having my skill I have the upper hand in a hand to hand combat. They would let their egos and pride get in the way.
Then it all happened in slow motion. First there was a loud angry screech coming from the woods. All of our heads swivel in that direction, including Emmett, Jasper, Sam and the unwelcome visitor. We see a girl charging out, running at full speed. She was almost as fast as one of us. Her face was twisted with rage. She looked familiar . . .
She jumped toward Jasper, who was the nearest to her, and she kicked him of the creature; sending Jasper flying backwards and crashing into Carlisle and Esme.
She grabs Emmett by the shoulder and tears him off the creature, throwing him back at me and Alice.
"Bella . . ." Emmett murmured. "That was Bella."
Alice and I exchange glances, and all of us, who had inhumanly good hearing, snapped our head up to look at the girl.
It was Bella, and she was beyond enraged. She grabbed Sam by the front paws and swung him around so that he crashed into his pack, like a bowling ball hitting the pins.
Bella let out a furious snarl, and stared at us with a deadly glare.
"Bella?" I asked her quietly. Her eyes snapped in my direction, red with a haze of anger. That's impossible. She shouldn't be able to hear me. She breathed heavily and took a deep breath, trying to calm down. We all stared at her dumbfounded.
Then she did something that surprised us all. She smiled.
"We'll, looks like I have a lot of explaining to do, don't I?"
And then all hell broke loose.
( I was going to end it here, but I plan to finish this story within 20 chapters, therefore I have to make them longer, so enjoy!)
Max/Bella POV:
Damn it, well what's done is done. My secret has to come out now. They saw my inhumane strengths and ability. Any lie now would just screw things up further. Oh how I wished I could be anywhere but here right now, even at home eating Jeb's cooking. And that's really saying something. I guess cooking doesn't run in the family.
"We'll, looks like I have a lot of explaining to do, don't I?"
Then all hell broke loose. Everyone was screaming and all the wolves were growling in awe.
"Guys calm down," I tried to say, but they kept screaming. My head was starting to throb, just like it usually does before I have another brain attack.
"HEY!" I yelled. "SHUT UP AND GIVE ME A MINUTE TO EXPLAIN!" I put my hands in my head. I saw Edward try to approach me but I glared at him, and he backed away.
"What the hell was that?" Rosalie snapped. "How the hell can you fight like that? I mean you're human! You shouldn't be able to take on two vampires and a wolf the size of a cow!" Sam snorted, offended by the remark. I was about to explain when I realized that Ari was missing.
I whistled a dog call.
"Come here dog breath! Come out, come out wherever you are!" I taunted Ari.
"What's the matter? Does the little birdie not know her manners?" Ari fired back. He stepped out of the woods, hooking on the last of the buttons on his shirt.
My ten year old brother changed so much. He was still the size of a fully grown, burly young man. He had gained a lot of muscle and weight. His hair was a lot scruffier and had a blondish tint to it, and his eyes were a brilliant shade of aqua blue, charged with enthusiasm. I also noted that he had a purple bruise on his cheek, a bleeding forehead and a split lip. We smiled at each other, our little banter already forgotten.
I walk up to him, though I can feel everyone's eyes boring into my back, I deliberately ignore it. We look dead into each other's eyes. His eyes have grown hard and tough to read over the years but I'm his sister, and no one knows him like I do. I can see the hidden message in them.
I miss you and I love you . . .
I sent him a message too.
I love you too kiddo . . .
He understood, and while we were sending messages to one another the tension in the air had nearly doubled and was hanging like a think forest blanket around us. An itchy, poky, scratchy blanket.
We smile at each other and I run straight into Ari's open arms.
"I missed you," he whispered to me.
"WILL SOMEONE EXPLAIN WHATS HAPPENING!" Rosalie shouted. I looked at the Cullen's and the pack. They all had the same expression in there eyes:
Confusion . . .
And;
Blood lust . . .
Okay I know this chapter was really short compared to my last super detailed one, but I really just wanted to put this one up.
I swear I will update faster because I have an idea in my head that I really want to use.
You guys are doing great with the reviews
Keep it up and ill have the next one up in a jiffy.
REVIEW!
