Chapter 11: Bonfire
Jacob
Renesmee and I got to La Push beach quicker than I thought. If we we're either running we'd probably get there in two minutes, but we had to keep the human façade while approaching humans but we got there in less than five minutes
We strolled down the beach swaying our hands in comfortable silence until she broke it "Are you nervous?" she asked me
"Nah, I know everyone will be happy for us, and it was bound to happen right, we're imprinted remember" I reminded her. She sighed
"Yeah you're probably right…but what will the pack think, I mean they don't all particularly like me" she said referring to Paul who probably dislikes her but tolerates her because she's my imprint. I despised him for months but then he confronted me
"I'll make they are, and besides they love you Nessie, it's just that Paul's a little…hotheaded" I seethed playfully at the end. She guffawed lightly as we reached to the crowd. Sam and Jared were working on the grill, Quil was standing with Michael (One of the newest wolves), Sean, Wyatt, laughing at a joke Quil said. Tanner and Embry were talking to the Quileute girls (No shock there), Collin, Brady Fuller, and Rye (By far the youngest shapshifter to ever be turned at aged 12), and Austin were playing Frisbee by the beach. Billy talking to Sue Clearwater, Mrs. Fuller, and Charlie Swan standing around the camp fire …
"Wow this place looks jam-packed" Renesmee whispered into my ear as she clasped my arm looking nervous which deflected onto me. I laughed
"I don't really know why you're nervous, Lochs" I said using the nickname Diego developed for her, much to Edward and Bella's dismay
"I don't know Jacob, I just feel this way," she sighed "Promise everything's going to be okay?" she asked-demanded me. I laughed. I brought her left hand to my mouth and planted a small peck on it then I saw her engagement
"Why don't you put the ring in your pocket, we wouldn't wanna give it away now would we?" I said and she just rolled her eyes but did as I asked
"Hey Jake, long time no see" Wyatt said approaching me and shaking my hand. Wyatt was a member of my pack who phased almost over six months ago "Hey Ness, still as beautiful as always" he smiled back and she returned the gesture "Sam and Jared are grilling burgers so if you're hungry you better get your fair share fast-" he noted but was cut off
"Hey Wyatt, I'm taking the biggest one" Sean exclaimed
"No you don't" Wyatt growled lowly and charged at the direction Sean ran to. Nessie chuckled whilst I just rolled my eyes. I turned so I faced Nessie and leaned in for a peck but of course we were interrupted
"Nessie!" I heard the high pitched squeal of my loving yet annoying older sister call out for Renesmee. We both spun around to see Rachel walking up to us after leaving the group of imprintees and Leah…Leah! "I was wondering when I'd see you around these parts again" Rachel said pulling Nessie in a tight hug
"Oh so I guess my own sister doesn't miss me as well" I teased around
"Hey there little brother it's not like I haven't seen you two days ago" she rolled her eyes and I just grinned "It's been a while Nessie" she said
"I know it feels like forever, how have you been?" Nessie asked
"Oh I've been fine, living a normal life, stranger things have happened but tell me how you have been…" she said pulling Nessie away from my possession and to the group. I just laughed at the scene. Saying Rach and Renesmee are close was an understatement. Ever since Renesmee reached maturity they've became friends, I was glad Nessie and Rachel were close
"Look what the cat dragged in" Quil coaxed as he saw me approaching him. I rolled my eyes
"Don't you mean Vampire" Embry joked "You've been so MIA it wasn't even natural" he said
"He was too busy with Nessie Bear" Tanner joked and the gang chuckled whilst I just rolled my eyes
"Probably hugging it out" Paul inclined
"Probably making it out" Embry added and the group erupted in laughter
"Okay that's real funny guys" I muttered sarcastically and rolled my eye yet I blushed a little "And 'hugging it out' really Paul?" he just shrugged
"I must've lost my touch" he said in defeat. I just smiled then we went into full a conversation until Seth and Jason made an appearance and then the bonfire began…
After my father told the stories and histories of our tribe (which I've heard like a million times but never got bored of them) I decided it was time to do my duty. I stared at Nessie for a brief minute as she held my hand Ready? I asked hoping she'd read my mind. She nodded and I stood up from the log. My dad smiled at me
"Okay guys…Nessie and I have an announcement to make" I began getting everyone's undivided attention "As you all know that I imprinted on Renesmee almost eight years ago on the 10th of September 2006 at exactly 21:32pm and I know this because everytime I see her, I imprint on her all over again" I said smiling widely at her. Most of the woman cooed and the males whistled "And I'm glad I did because I can't imagine my life without her" I muttered mostly to her. She had tears welling up in her eyes as she smiled at me "Renesmee and I are engaged!" I exclaimed turning my back to the crowd who had their eyes widened and then a few moments later cheered and congratulated us. Every girl bombarded Renesmee
"Congratulations man" Quil said patting my back as 'The gang' all came up to me
"Well render me happy" Paul exclaimed and pulled me in a tight 'man' hug. I just chuckled
"Can't wait to see the Jacob Black in a tuxedo" Embry teased and I just rolled my eyes"Alice is going to arrange that whether he likes it or not" Jason added and we all sniggered
"Congratulations Jacob, I hope you treat my only granddaughter properly…I'm a cop remember?" Charlie said patting my shoulder. I chuckled nervously
"I promise Charlie" I said with a smile. Before proposing to Nessie, I technically had to ask Charlie for permission as well, Emmett thought it could be an inside joke because apparently Edward didn't ask Charlie for permission
"Very well kid…And you Jason, you better treat that girl of yours correctly" he eyed Jason
"Aw come on granddad, you know me" Jason conquered with a chuckle. Charlie smiled back. My father then rolled in
"I'm really happy for you, son I'm glad you found the found the person you'll spend the rest of your life with, you're very lucky to have Nessie" he smiled widely at me. I returned it and hugged my father
"Thanks papa" I mumbled against his shoulder. Before my mom died when I was younger I use to always call my dad papa
"You haven't called me that ever since you were six son." he laughed
"Yeah but your worth it" I said pulling away from our embrace "I love you dad" I said
"Love you too son" he smiled at me and patted my arm
"Hate to break up the love guru but how about a round of beers" Charlie suggested. We all laughed and agreed
"Wonder what Ed-" Seth began but was cut off by a wolf howl down the clearing. We all spun around and tuned in on it…three howls. Everyone widened their eyes whilst Charlie just looked
"There are bloodsuckers in town" I declared and I phased right on the spot, the wolves phased as well and we went in the direction we heard the howl from…
The entire Cullen gang appeared as we all ran through the forest in search of this mystery bloodsucker. Luckily Brian, Phillip was patrolling daily or we all wouldn't have known. We all ran through the forest frantically not caring about the animals we scared off. Eight rabbits, two squirrels and eleven birds to be exact…We haven't had any threats of danger in the past few month and I could honestly say I was getting a little bored
As we ran above bridges, through rock infested bushes, around the river bank where beavers stayed in shelter at our presence, we kept losing tract of the vampires' stench…
The Cullen's were on our flanks as we tried to avoid the vicious winds that spurred around
"Stop…" Edward seethed loudly and all of us came to a complete halt as he stared at the surroundings. Most of the wolves growled softly "He's just past the border line…we need to split up" he added and then we heard a clamorous excruciating scream "Now!" he ordered us all. I arranged my pack in groups whilst Sam did the same with his and we split up. Seth and Leah followed on my flank with Sean as we followed the Cullens.
As we got closer the scents seemed to move further apart. I heard another antagonizing scream but this time it sounded more like how Carmen or Cathy usually screamed. Emmett and Rosalie flounced past me in a total rush as they feared for their worried for their daughters' safety. As we got closer we saw a collapsed body sprawled across the ground. Carlisle stopped and checked the body boy's pulse
"He was knocked unconscious but he's pulse is steady" He informed us
"Is that Brady?!" Cathy gasped as she saw him. Edward nodded towards her "How did he get here?" she asked in confusion
"I have no idea but he looks like he alone…" Carlisle answered and that's when Cathy froze on the spot and shed a slight tear
"Carmen…" she whispered inaudible as her eyes looked in fear
"What?" Rosalie asked frantically at her daughter "What about her?" she conquered
"S-she and Brady had a picnic date…" she admitted
"A picnic what?" Emmett exclaimed in anger with fear as he thought of his daughter missing
"Emmett, please..." Rosalie pleaded to her husband
"Someone might have took our daughter Rose and you expect me to calm down!" he coaxed angrily whilst Rosalie shot daggers at him
"No his right, whoever this person are it may seem they left their stench behind however it's not familiar to me" Edward mused smelling Brady's body
"Another nomad passing through" Bella conquered and Edward nodded "But why is he after us?" she asked rhetorically
"The passerby wouldn't have left Brady alive so I doubt…" Jason answered as he held hung on Laura who looked pained "They must be after Carmen" he added sadly
Then Jasper appeared "Their scents disappeared eighteen miles south of the border line, the wolves are trying their best to track their scent however…" Jasper said in pain
"What is it?!" Emmett demanded impatiently
"They smelled a little blood and…" he said his eyes filled with pain. Rosalie and Cathy looked like they were going to bawl in tears at any minute whilst Emmett was blazed in anger "We lost him"
"I'm going to rip them to pieces" he seethed sternly and his breathing trembling as he tensed up. Rose had her hand on his arm in a soothing motion but Emmett wasn't fazed and he darted through the forest
"Daddy" Cathy exclaimed and tried following in the direction he went to but Seth stood protectively in front of her
"What happened guys?" I heard Renesmee's voice from behind. My eyes widened and I turned around to glare at her what are you doing here?! I thought I told you to stay put I tried to say but it came out as a whimper
"Renesmee, what are you doing here?!" Edward asked frantically which caused Nessie to flinch
"I came to see what the problem was" she said innocently
"Do you know the physical danger you could've put yourself into by coming here alone? There are nomads out there!" he shouted sternly at her. Renesmee flinched at his tone of voice
"Okay let's all just calm down and think of a way to figure this situation out" He said and we nodded "Jason, Seth please take the girls and Brady back to the main house?" He asked and I nodded in agreement. Renesmee turned to me and touched my wolf cheek
I'm sorry for worrying you Jakey, I just wanted to know that you were safe, and please keep that promise…if anything happens to you I swear to god… she projected through my head. I smiled inside
I promise, I won't let anything happen; I love you baby I said licking her face and covered her with slobber. She giggled
As I love you Jakey she said kissing my cheek before pulling away and climbing onto Seth's back with Cathy in front and running back to the main house with Jason with Jason
Okay guys, listen up, I'll be splitting the pack into three groups. Group 1: head down south of the border line that's Leah, Seth and I, Group 2: Search the perimeter with the Cullens, Group 3: Patrol the border line understood? I said my alpha voice awakening. Ever since I became Alpha I've been in control and I was always the first person you looked to where there's trouble. You'd think I disliked it but truth is…I think it is fun Track these bloodsuckers down but make sure you don't get caught, kill anything that gets in your way from saving Carmen
But boss, what if these vampires have some freaky ability like Jane…I mean of course we'll make sure we save Carmen but at what cost… Brady asked…Brady decided he'd come to my pack because he feels more comfortable with me as the Alpha than Sam
Bella will be with you guys to shield you guys I told them and they all nodded and we decreed our departure and ran in search for Carmen
Carmen
"Who are you?" Brady snarled at the man as he took a protective stance in front of me. The man just laughed "Who are you?"`
"Brady…" I murmured to him as I stroked his arm. I didn't know who this man really was but I knew what he was and I knew Brady wouldn't be able to stand against him. The man wasn't particularly tall but he was a good 5ft 9, uniquely paled skinned but a little different from my family's, he's was milky and the way it glistened in the sunset, his stone statue, his ashy blonde hair and dare I say his bloodshot crimson eyes ready to kill
"Now now, young lad, listen to the lady" he said with another disgusting chuckle
"What do you want?" Brady hissed at him. The man turned to look at me with a repulsive smirk on his face and that's when I knew…he's after me
"Why don't you follow me young child" he said reaching for my arm. I hissed at him
"I wouldn't go with you even if you were the last person on earth" I snarled
"Oh do you right…Christina!" he called out and turned around. Then the most beautiful woman I've ever seen appeared with a huge smile. She had long wavy golden-blonde hair, amazing ocean blue eyes with a tint of hazel in the iris, lightly tanned skin, and her body clung perfectly as she wore a white cloak and dress
"Hello Carmen" she said in the sweetest raspy voice I only heard in my dreams. I gasped
"Christ…Mom" I choked up as I saw her beautiful smile. She nodded "Is this even real?"
"Carmen, you have to listen to me, come, it's for your own safety, and we can finally be together sweetie" she said her voice slightly fading away
"Wait, you know these people?" Brady asked. I nodded slightly towards him, he took one quick glance at my mother then back at me and then he got the hint "Who…what are you?" he asked as if I were foreign to him. I titled my head so I'd face him
"It's hard to explain but…" I began and turned around to see the unknown man looking rather impatient as he tugged my arm "Let me go!" I hissed at him "Brady you have to trust me in this…just go find my family, tell them I'm safe" but then the vampire tugged me again this time his grip was too tight
"What?!" he shouted "Let her go!" he snarled at the vampire as he did the biggest mistake. He then lunged at him but the vampire was too quick and threw him against the tree hardly. I screamed in agony as I watched my boyfriend rendered unconscious. The vampire then brought Brady's hand towards his mouth and sank his teeth into him. I screamed
"No! Please don't kill him" I panted frantically. He smirked devilishly. This guy was officially going to piss me off
"I'll submit his immunity if you do as I say, understood?" he demanded and I nodded
"I'll go under one condition…you leave my family alone" I said sternly. He smiled
"Of course dear one" he mumbled as he reached for my chin and traced his cold finger one it "You're so beautiful…just like your mother" he smiled at me. I flinched away slightly and took one good look at him before turning around to see Christie smiling at us and then I decided I'd walk up to her, to feel her for the first time. As I reached for her I then tripped through her body like she was a breath of air. I frowned
"What just happened? Why can't I touch her?" I asked in confusion. The vampire just smiled
"She was just a hologram to fool you, your mother will never come back from the dead" he laughed evilly
"Wait so this was a joke?" I asked raising my voice "You lied to me?!" I muttered angrily. He just smiled and pulled my arm "Let me go!" I screamed at him and tried to get out of his tight grasp but I knew all too well that was impossible
There was only one thing to do in this situation…I let out an excruciating scream that made the birds fly right away
"You better shut the hell up little girl, or I might just give you to the Creseens dead" he hissed at me
"My family will come and save me and they'll kill you!" I snarled angrily as tears lightly fell from my eyes. He just rolled his eyes
"Your so called 'family' doesn't care about you, they just kept you alive until we came to collect you" he laughed
"Where are you taking me?" I asked him minding what he said about my family. Wait until he meets my dad
"That's for me to know and for you to find out" he mumbled sternly "Jonathan needs you as a necessity, you're an asset both you and your sister…so if you want to live you'll have to do as he says understood?" he said but I didn't answer him
"Who are the Creseens?" I asked trying my very best to annoy this man. He tensed up
"Stop asking questions you little brat!" he demanded viciously
"What's the square root of pi?" I asked him. He let out a menacing growl and came to a halt. He dropped me onto the floor and raised his hand reaching for my face but someone stopped him
"Don't you dare touch her Brevrant" a growl erupted from the man. The vampire turned around to face him
"Get away from here you little mongrel" Brevrant spat back. I titled my head slightly to see a very tall man standing in attacking stance. I knew that this wasn't the right time but I had to say, this guy was really hot and I mean hot. He was muscular built even with his sweater on, really tall probably 6ft 10, tanned skin, dark brown curly hair, beautiful green eyes that looked like they were morphing into something different. He didn't look older than 17-19 years old
"I've always dreamt of this moment, the moment I'd finally kill you" he smirked at him
"You're not even in your wolf form" Brevrant laughed disgustingly. Then the man looked at the sky and saw as the moon started to form. He's eyes then turned to a deep sunset yellow and his nails expanded in claws. He smiled widely showing off his now sharp razor teeth and charging towards Brevrant. I was stunned by all of this and gasping as I saw them both rolling around. I though fast and got up and tried to make a run for it however I felt a sharp pain on my left leg as the vampire sank his teeth in me but was pulled away by the man. I screamed in antagonizing pain as I clasped my leg. After the pain slightly deuced, I then thought I had to climb the tree and wait for everything to die down.
The pain was excruciating and I couldn't help but scream whenever a small sting came. I was crying fiercely as my hands were around my bloody thigh. That's when I saw the wolves appear and I sighed in relief...
