Chapter Twenty-Four: First Training Session

Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight Saga; I'm just screwing with the characters. Have fun with whatever happens and characters I make up.

AN: Sorry I haven't updated in a while, I've had writer's block and my sister just helped me out of it so please read and review this chapter. Thank you for everything. :)

Marie's POV

Everyone in the room was quiet. They glanced between me and Jasper with curiosity in their eyes. Jasper knew what I was saying and asking him to do. His family needed to know how to defend themselves against a newborn and he was trained to go against them. This wasn't the world his parents wanted him to be a part of when they found out he didn't have any magical abilities but he was pulled into it anyways. Edward gave me a sad look but I ignored him. Jasper never knew his family had magical blood in them though I tried to get them to tell him in case he later had a family and his children showed signs of having magical abilities. They didn't listen to me and soon after he disappeared.

"I'm sorry for having to ask this of you Jasper but will you train everyone on how to fight newborns?" I asked him.

Jasper didn't even think twice, he just answered me, "Yes."

"I'll get the wolves to help also," I told them.

Bella went to interject but I gave her a look that made it final. Carlisle approached me confused.

"What about the treaty, Marie?" Carlisle asked me.

"Leave it to me. Meet at my house which is on the territories' borderline but near my parents' home, at midnight tonight and we'll leave out from there," I told them.

Everyone nodded and I walked to the back porch. I said bye to my brother and his family along with Bella and the Cullens before I transformed into my wolf form and ran to the woods of First Beach. Embry had sensed my transformation and followed me to the beach. He arrived in his human form on the motorcycle that Jacob had given him since the one I got Jacob for his birthday arrived for him. I reverted to my human form and walked over to my man with a big smile.

"I have set for the pack to meet with the Cullens at my house at midnight so that way we can go somewhere secluded to train for the battle. Until then, what shall we do?" I asked him as I climbed on to the bike.

"I think I can figure out some by the time we get to my house," he smirked and kicked the bike on.

Bella's POV

We watched Marie turn into a huge snow white wolf and run off into the forest. Edward and his family except Emmett stood beside me astounded by what they just saw. I wonder if she smelled as bad as the wolves did or if she had a scent all her own. Darien, Vera, Henry, and Emmett just stood next to us and laughed at us. That's when pain shot through my head and began to pound in my temples. It started hurt behind my eyes as images flashed through my mind. A white wolf bouncing around with a little girl in Puritan wearing dress on its back…then a little Emmett holding on to its fur as they raced through the forest with a rifle in his hand…then a little black haired, hazel eyed girl putting colorful bows and braids in its fur.

That's when I realized those were more of my memories and they showed different parts of when Marie and I were traveling around to see our family or when I visited her. I opened my eyes and nearly fell over from dizziness but Edward caught me. Everyone looked at me confused and I sat down before I told them what I saw.

"I just don't know who the first little girl I saw was," I told them and Emmett smiled at me.

"That was Lynda, she was the first of Aunt Marie's nieces born," Emmett told me.

"When was she born?" I asked him.

"In 1640's I think, she's younger than Carlisle by a couple of years," Emmett said with smirk towards Carlisle.

There must've been some connection between her and Carlisle for Emmett to give him a smirk like that. By the looks of his expression, he does not remember her like I myself. Carlisle brought me some Excedrin for my headache. Everyone in the house went back to doing what they normally do. Alice decided that she needed play a game of Bella Barbie before we meet up with the wolves tonight.

Since Charlie always knew about the Cullens being vampires and the mythical world, there was no since in me trying to lie in the reason I was staying at the Cullens house tonight. Though I could always go stay the night with Marie and catch up with her. Maybe even take Alice and Rosalie with me and have a girls' night out thing. I saw Alice's face light up as soon as I completed my thought and she ran up to me.

"That's a wonderful idea, Bella. I can already see us getting ready with Marie and going out to a club or some place in Seattle," she exclaimed. Something in my expression must've caught her attention. "After this whole thing blows over with Seattle first," she says with a smile as she waves her hand like it's no big deal.

I worry for my sister sometimes. She may physically be in the present but her mind and sight is in the future and she can't sometimes see what's happening around her. We're hoping to make it through today and the next few days to next week. I'm hoping to make it through the next few hours without tripping and have Edward next to me the next few hours. But what Alice sees may come true, but sometimes not. It's subject to change and we hope we know when it does. I'm drawn away from my thoughts by soft butterfly kisses on my cheek and neck. I turn and gaze up at Edward, accepting a chaste kiss from him.

"What's on your mind, love?" Edward whispers in my ear.

"Alice is, just the way she acts bewilders me sometimes," I smiled up at him and kissed his cheek before I walked inside the house and into the kitchen.

I poured me a glass of tea and sat on the barstool at the counter. Edward followed me in and sat with me. The rest of the family gathered in the living room except for Emmett who followed us into the kitchen also. He stood on the other side and just looked like he was waiting for something.

"So what triggered that bout of memories to appear?" Emmett asked curiously while smirking at me.

I thought for a moment before I looked at him and said, "I think when she transformed into a wolf did the trick."

Emmett nodded his head and stood there. He seemed to be thinking about something but was hiding it from Edward because it was seriously irritating him. He must be up to something. I jumped when my cell phone rang and Emmett let out a roar of a laugh.

"Hello?" I asked.

"Hey, Bella, can you have the Cullens meet me and the pack in the baseball field at midnight for training. Jasper will know what to do," Marie told me.

"Um…sure, Marie," I told her as I looked up to see the Cullens already gathered around to hear what was happening.

"Thanks, Isa, love you, cous. Bye everyone," she said before hanging up.

It's funny she knew the Cullens were listening but she too had impeccable hearing. I started to head upstairs to Edward's room so I could get a nap in before we go meet Marie and pack but Edward stopped me.

"Bella, you can't go with us tonight for training. It's too dangerous," he told me.

Emmett, Darien, Vera, and Henry all stared at him like he was crazy. No matter what he said I was going with them tonight to the training session.

"Edward, I don't care what you say, I'm going tonight. It might help me get my memories back some more," I told him like I was pleading.

Adding on that last sentence is what finalized it. I was going and Edward wouldn't try to stop me. He'd want me to have all my memories back, no matter what. The more I gained, the closer I got to Marie being able to perform the completion spell.

Marie's POV

Midnight was approaching fast as I changed clothes in my room. I decided to wear my black yoga pants and midnight blue long sleeve shirt and black ballet slippers. I wanted to be able to blend in with my environment of the night time but I'd also stand out against Embry's fur. When I came down stairs, the pack was scattered around my living room and kitchen either sitting watching television or going through my fridge for food. I shook my head and silently laughed. Embry looked up from where he was sitting and gazed at me with a smile. I walked up to him and wrapped my arms around his waist before walking to my back porch to wait for the Cullens to get here.

It didn't take long before Carlisle was the first to appear through the trees with Esme next to him, their hands connected. Slowly each of the children Cullens appeared and Edward stopped at my porch so Bella could stand next to me. My brother and his wife and son ran up the steps of my porch and stood next to us. The wolves stepped out of my house and joined me and my family on the porch.

"Looks like everyone's ready to go," I commented before leading the way into the forest.

I transformed into a wolf, and nudged Emmett with my nose, pointing towards Bella. He smirked and picked her up, tossing her on my back. Edward seemed to get worried not knowing what was happening but between me and Emmett, Bella would be safe. Bella was really surprised by what was happening and gripped my fur tightly. I was fine with that until she pulled it when Emmett let her go. I whined a little causing the pack and Bella to gaze at me worriedly.

"Sorry, Marie, I'm just a little freaked at the moment," Bella apologized.

"Bella, just run your fingers through her fur until it stands up then get a grip on it," Emmett instructed knowing from experience.

Bella relaxed and ran her fingers through my fur until I was relaxed also. I could feel her fingers grip my fur but not as harsh as before. I looked at Edward and thought to him, 'Have your family lead the way to the field, we'll follow right behind them.' He told them what I said and then gazed over at Bella on my back worriedly. I shook out my shoulders and Bella giggled at the movement.

'What, do you not trust me with my own cousin's life?' I asked Edward with a smirk on my face.

Emmett pulled on his shoulder and told him something to low for even me to hear, so it was only for him to hear. Emmett smiled at me and took off with Edward and Rosalie by his side. I led the wolves right behind the Cullens. Sam was to my right while Embry was to my left though he deserves to be on my right. Sam as the leader of this pack is at my right.

'It's alright, Marie. I understand why he's there,' Embry told me with a smile.

'Thanks, Embry,' I smiled at him.

We arrived at with them field and I lowered Bella to the ground before phasing to my human body.

"That…was…AMAZING!" Bella exclaimed with her eyes popping wide open.

"How do you feel?" Edward asked when he appeared next to her.

"I feel exhilarated!" she exclaimed to him next.

Emmett walked up with a big smile on his face and patted Edward on the shoulder.

"See? Everything's good," he told him. "Try having her take you on a hunting trip and you're trying to shoot while hanging on to a wolf," he smiled at me.

I smiled at Emmett and led the wolves into the center of the field. Rosalie looked over at Bella and she seemed to sniff the air.

"You don't have the wet dog smell," she commented with a smile to Bella.

I glared at Rosalie and gave a short growl towards her. She jumped in surprise away from me and ran to Emmett. He frowned at her as he held her.

"Don't insult my aunt like that, Rose," Emmett warned her.

Darien and Vera stood off to the side with Henry, snickering a little. Jasper called us all to attention and we all lined up in battle formation.

"Are you not going to join us, Uncle Darien?" Emmett asked smirking.

"I don't need to, I'm the best fighter already," Darien gloated as he went to slam his fist on his chest but it went limp before it hit his chest and looked like he was doing the retardation sign.

All the wolves, Bella, Emmett, and I burst in feverish laughter. Darien and the rest of the Cullens eyed us worriedly and curiously. Henry hung his head in shame and covered his face with his hands.

"Dude, Aleya and Lynda are better fighters then you," Emmett spouted at him with a grin on his face.

"YOU IDIOT…YOU DUD! You're going to pull A and Lynda into this now!" I screamed at him.
