Chapter 12: Threat
Jacob
I clasped the flask between my paws even through the coldness from the wind. I run at a unique passed the border line. As we went passed the clearing we smelt the distinct scent of blood of Carmen and that's when wolf instincts kicked in…Carmen wasn't like related to me in any sort of way but she was family, I cared about her almost as much as the Cullen's
I ran passed almost a dozen trees until I caught the sight of figures attacking each other. A vampire and to what seemed like a wolf attacking each other viciously. I myself couldn't convince myself that these two weren't so ordinary
The wolf looked different from us shapeshifters. Chalk white with a hint of grey in his front rear, extremely large probably almost larger than alpha wolves, he had sharp canines that allowed him to rip throw the vamps arm however standing up right almost ape-like, and his eye color was like the sun a very deep kind of yellow. He tackled the man to the ground as he growled furiously at him
"You'll never get a chance like this again Derek," The unknown bloodsucker retorted between gasps "Why would you risk you're life for her?" he grunted
"I'm not risking my life for her; I just have a good reason to kick your butt" he snarled ferociously at him. I was completely stunned by all of this because he communicating without even phasing back to human, he's lips weren't moving…it was like he was projecting his thoughts but this time it was audible "Why are you in these parts huh?" he coaxed again as he strangled the vamps neck who just chuckled
"Still as stubborn as you use to be, no wonder your creator disowned you" he spat at him "Stubborn young boy" he said in Danish
"Answer me!" he demanded as he let out another fierce growl from his throat whilst the vampire just laughed. He then slashed the vamps arm apart and it let out a scream
"I came as a favor to Jonathan, that I should collect all his offspring's he produced around the world" he gasped still in pain. The wolves growled softly and they both spun around to see us
"Who are you?" the wolf snarled at us then I heard a scream coming from high above the tree. He was then knocked off unconscious by the bloodsucker as he bit his neck
"Dad…Mom" Carmen's voice screeched. She looked like she was in excruciating pain. Then Emmett appeared
"Carmen!" he erupted for her name then he began to climb onto the tree she was on but in a blinding second a bloodsucker came from behind him as he charged at him and began to tackle him to the ground. Wolf instincts kicked and I ordered the wolves to attack…
"Where the hell did he come from" Leah hissed as she and Seth fought him off Emmett
"Save my little girl" Emmett panted as he grasped his arm in pain. I nodded and ran to the tree Carmen sat on in pain. She was sobbing fiercely as she grasped her bloody thigh. I looked up and whimpered hoping she'd catch on what I meant
"I can't Jacob, I'm scared" she panted through the tears. I purred softly and she just shook her head
"Sweetie listen to him…please" Emmett begged as he fought with the vampire Derek had. Carmen sighed and nodded. She then adjusted herself into a sitting position but she flinched at the movement but braced herself. She then fell down from the tree and landed perfectly on my back. I then charged through the trees and towards the Cullen house. I was vaguely stopped by someone calling out my name
"Jacob! It's just us…" I heard Bella's voice chime from behind. I came to a halt and turned around to see Edward, Bella, Rosalie and Esme approaching
"Carmen!" Rosalie gasped as she saw her daughter on my back
"Mom…" Carmen whispered as she winced in pain. Edward came closer and caught the sight of her bloody leg
"She got bitten, we need to take her to Carlisle fast" he said letting go of her leg and nodding towards me. I took that as a chance to carry on running whilst they followed
We made it to the house after a couple of seconds later and saw all the wolves in a protective stance around the house
Thank you guys, the Cullens have got it covered, you can go patrol but please keep close I demanded my pack and they nodded in agreement and left
Renesmee got out of the house door with Jason, Cathy and Laura. She gasped as she saw Carmen in pain
"What happened?" she asked and that's when Edward, Rosalie and Emmett appeared. Emmett pulled Carmen off me and held her tightly with Rosalie by his side calmly stroking her daughters neck
"We'll explain later but we need to bring her inside" Edward said sadly. Renesmee gave me my shorts and I went behind a tree to phase back into my human form. I came back and wrapped my arm around Nessie before heading into the house. We went to Carlisle's office but we realized he wasn't there
"Carlisle's with Bella, Jasper, and Alice and the other wolves tracking the unknown vampires" he said answering my thoughts. I could see the pain in his eyes being away from his mate, he was worried for his family and Bella, even though Bella was a vampire now; he still had doubts and fears. I wouldn't blame him. Emmett placed a rather in pain Carmen on the hospital bed
"We need to act fast" Emmett said. He quickly took a glance at Carmen's leg and frowned "Why isn't anything happening?" he asked in confusion. Edward quickly caught onto it
"Strange…she's not reacting to the venom…like she's immune…Carmen did he bite you for a long period of time or just a sting?" he asked her
"Um no… he just sank his teeth but the wolf was far too quick" she answered. I heard Emmett growl lightly at the words whilst Rosalie just looked distraught and fearful for her daughter
"Does it hurt now?" Edward asked
"It's painful but it's bearable" she replied to her Uncle who nodded. Then the door swung open and in came Diego
"Carmen?" he said frantically and went to her side. He looked absolutely worried it was almost painful "Are you okay?" he asked sadly
"I'm sorry I tried keeping him away but he just really wanted to see her" Laura said coming into the room. Emmett nodded then smiled slightly
"I'm okay Dee" Carmen said with a reassuring smile. Diego nodded then turned to Edward
"She's fine, just slightly in pain but she's healing as we speak" he answered his unspoken thought. Diego nodded
"What happened to the guy who saved me?" Carmen then asked
"The wolves are with him…he was knocked unconscious after Brevrant attacked him" Edward answered
"Wait…Brevrant, the dick who tried to take my daughter?" Emmett asked angrily. Edward nodded slightly
"We still don't have a word on him, Carlisle promised he'd let us know as soon as possible so I don't think we need to worry at this point" Edward assured us all. Carmen then gasped
"What happened to Brady?!" she asked frantically and I could see Emmett tensing up at his name
"He had a concussion but regained it after we treated him," Renesmee answered. Carmen let out a sigh of relief
"But he will be okay right?" she asked him and Edward nodded
"I don't want you hanging around that boy anymore" Emmett mumbled sternly as his face was stern serious no hint of jokiness
"Emmett…" Rosalie sighed whilst Carmen just looked ashamed "She had a traumatizing day, she doesn't need more stress added onto her" Rosalie said calmly but I knew she wasn't entirely happy with the situation herself. Emmett just sighed
"I'm going to watch the football game…you'll be alright?" he asked Carmen who nodded and then he left the room
"So who saved Carmen?" Cathy asked out of the blue
"I'm not entirely sure but I think it was a wolf" Carmen answered her sister
"Like Jacob wolf?" Renesmee asked looking at me. I shook my head
"I've never seen him in my life…well the wolf form of him, he was different from us" I said shrugging. Edward looked in thought before he figured it out
"I know what he is" he confirmed. Everyone turned to look at him "He's a Child of the Moon" Edward conquered
"Like Real wolves?" Rosalie asked. Edward nodded "Ugh why do mutts have to always be around my daughters" She muttered in disgust and appalled. I lightly chuckled at her persistent disgust against wolves. Deep down…way deep down, I know Rosalie kind of likes wolves
"But I thought the Volturi dealt with them years ago" Jason added as he pulled Laura to his side. It was weird hearing that name after destroying the Volturi years ago; it brought painful memories of Renesmee's childhood that'll forever have vengeance on
"Well yes I assumed so but there are more out there, the Volturi didn't have that kind of time…Aro was more focused on us cause Carlisle had us, he saw us as the ultimate threat and because since he had the power, he used in for greed and lust instead of good which then exalted to his exile" Edward explained with slight anger at the end "and the wolf gene may also be spread around so I wouldn't be bewildered"
"So who was he?" Renesmee asked. Edward looked at her with pained eyes before answering
"Derek"
Renesmee
"So who is he?" I asked my dad whose expression morphed into sadness in an instant. I think I knew who it was but wasn't ready to admit it
"Derek" he blurted out. My heart literally skipped a beat at Derek's name. Derek was my childhood best friend who I met sic years ago around my Grandfather's neighborhood. I later found out that his father worked with my granddad as the commander in chief. After meeting we were totally inseparable, we dated for a short while-much to Jacob's displeasure- but then realized we were better just as friend's. He was the only human friend I had from the outside world…that was until he relocated to Canada. I was broken for practically a week but luckily Jacob kept me going
"Wait as in…Derek Parker?" I asked. He let out a slight nod
"W-who is Derek Parker?" Laura asked in befuddlement
"He-he was my childhood friend…I thought he left to Canada?" I asked
"Renesmee, the Children of the Moon are spread across the remote corners of the world, Canada is their target, there is no telling how many there are at this moment" he replied. I nodded understandingly "Carlisle and the others are on their way" he declared
"Carmen what are you doing?" Rosalie asked her daughter as she tried to get up from the bed
"Getting up?" she said more of a question
"No you aren't… you need rest" Rosalie said calmly to her but judging by her facial expression I knew she was being serious
"But mom, I'm healing by the minute and I'm sure my ability is contributing" she argued
"I think she's right Rose, I can already see it closing up" Edward conquered. Rosalie was fighting with her thoughts until she finally gave in
She sighed "Okay but we really need to get you cleaned up first" Carmen rolled her eyes before limping away to her room with her mother by her side.
We all designated our way to the living room
"I still can't believe Derek is…" I said to Jacob as I sat myself on his lap "This is just unreal"
"I know babe, but at least he's not a bloodsucking demon" I shot daggers at him but he just chuckled "Besides being a wolf is awesome" he said kissing my cheek. I giggled lightly before I heard chattering by the door as my family approached
"So what happened? Did you get that dick yet?" Emmett asked Esme who just frowned in confusion as she came in with Alice and Bella "Sorry…that leech?" he asked impatiently
"Yes, Jasper and Carlisle is on his way with him-" She answered and if on cue the door was slammed opened as Emmett barged out. As we followed him we saw both Jasper and Edward having hold of a man with ashy blonde and milky pale skin
"Tell us what you know? Who are you? Where do you come from?" Carlisle demanded in a calm manner whilst Uncle Emmett looked like he was about ready to beat this guy up. Jacob and Seth phased into their wolf from for safety precautions
"Who are you?!" Emmett snarled at him as he didn't answer who just spat at him. Emmett growled then ripped the vampire's right arm off. It let out an excruciating scream of agony. I slightly flinched away "Answer me?!" he growled
"Emmett…" Carlisle said laying his hand on his shoulder
"My name is Brevrant from… Credysa…in Russia" He said between gasps as the pain struck him
"So why did you come to America, what are you after?" Carlisle asked him but we all knew the answer to that
"I came as a favor to Jonathan-" he began then trailed off as he grunted in pain
"He said it was only fair to collect all his children for the empire" he answered
"What damn empire?" Emmett asked impatiently
"The Creseens" He answered in pain. Everyone's had confusion stricken in their eyes except for my dad
"The Creseens…?" Carlisle asked my dad
"We can surrender his immunity" Edward answered as he loosened his grip on Brevrant. My eyes widened and so did everyone else's
"I say we kill him!" Emmett suggested sternly as he erupted an involuntary growl. Edward sighed "Dude, I don't want my daughters to be in any kind of danger so I think it's best we deal with him and have one less thing to worry about" Emmett rumbled not staring at my father
"Yes Edward, I don't appreciate any obliteration towards anyone however I don't want my family to be in danger, it's not worth it" he tried to reason with him. My dad took one quick look at him before nodding
"I've got the information I needed" He declared
Emmett let out a smug smile "This should be good" he mumbled clenching his fists
"No, no please don't, I'll stay away from you" Brevrant pleaded for his life
"Do it" Edward said and then all I heard was one antagonizing scream that echoed loudly through the forest as they destroyed Brevrant's remains. I flinched away from the scene as they burned him into ashes. We watched as the fire burned his last crops into nothing but pure dust
"What was he talking about? About this unknown Creseens…?" Jasper asked either Edward or Jason
"I-I couldn't tune onto his mind, I just don't know why" Jason shuddered in frustration
"I couldn't fully understand his mind process but he did mention something about Phantos to whom I assume is the leader, he was very careful with his mind but luckily I got the information that they're after Diego, Carmen, and Cathy" he said looking at Cathy and Emmett
"But there has to be someone behind all this madness" Alice said "I never saw this coming, how could I not see this coming" She cried in frustration
"There must be something blocking Alice's visions" Esme conquered
"It must be a person with an ability to stop another from working" Laura suggested from Jason's side. Jacob and Seth phased back to their human forms and came up to us
"Or a different species" I added unexpectedly. Everyone titled their heads towards me like I was a genius
"That's an interesting theory Renesmee…If there are more species that exist then they must be the reason Alice can't see clearly" Carlisle estimated
"Someone's orchestrating this" Jacob conquered hollowly.
"But the question is…who?" My mother added. My dad walked up to her side and pulled her into a hug. It couldn't have been the Volturi because we destroyed them, months ago
"You're right, but that doesn't mean they didn't have Allies" My dad answered my unspoken thought
"So the Volturi might have had something to do with this?" Carlisle asked.
"I'm not too sure but when we were on the battle grounds, it seemed as Jane was kind of uneasy, she wasn't herself…She might've had something to do with this…but let's not jump into conclusions…let's just be happy that Carmen is back home safely" He insisted and we all nodded in agreement. We all made our way back into the house
"Did you take care of him" Rosalie said as she took a step toward the front door as we came in. Emmett nodded towards his wife and pulled her into a hug
"I'm sorry" He mumbled. Rosalie smiled slightly and nodded "I've just been stressing because of Halo 5, football, it's just too much" He sounded serious but we knew all too well he was joking
"Do you guys want something to eat?" Esme asked warmly
"I'll do with some food" Jacob and Seth answered in unison. Of course
"I'll go ask Carmen and Brady" I insisted and made my way to the living room in search for them. As I took the first step I heard chattering
"What's going on Carmen?" Brady's voice chimed
"It's really hard to explain Brad-" Carmen contemplated
"What are you hiding from me, the guy was a serial killer a-and that woman who looked like an angel…looked exactly like you" He said frantically "What are you hiding from me?" he asked\
"Brady I can't tell you…at least not now" Carmen mumbled as tears welled up in her eye
"Y-you said you'd tell me anything, I wanna know why that guy looked creepy and why I woke up with a 'concussion'" He said quoting the words "I need to-" He began but turned his head to see me standing
"Um, Esme's making snacks, you can stay over for dinner if you want" I suggested. He shook his head and grabbed his keys
"Thanks, but I was just on my way" he muttered and left the room. He quickly declared his departure to my family before heading out of the house. Carmen sighed and collapsed on the couch
"This sucks" She sighed. "I mean I get that our secret should remain confidential but…why does life have to be so complicated"
"I know, I get it, it's hard to always lie to the people you love" I said making my way to her. She widened her eyes
"I-I don't love Brady" She laughed nervously. I raised my eyebrow at her which just caused her to blush "Okay maybe a little" she shaded a brighter red "I just don't get why we can't tell him, I mean I trust him, doesn't my opinion matter" she groaned. I laughed at how she sounded exactly like Rosalie
"Yes it does, I think it's probably for safety reasons, yes the Volturi are gone but look what happened today, you almost got kidnapped and badly injured, Brady was hurt…yes it is unfair to keep things away from people we care about, but we're doing this because we don't want them in any danger than we already have now." I said. She nodded in agreement
"Yeah you're probably right. So what am I going to do now?" she asked mostly to herself. I shrugged
"Probably explain everything to your parents" I joked. Her eyes bugled
"They know?!" she asked. I nodded slightly "Well shit, I'm totally dead" she said. I snickered. "So what happened to that vamp?" she asked
"Emmett dealt with him" I replied and she nodded, she lightly grunted in pain and clasped her leg. I scanned it to see the entire bruise was fading. In some odd way I could see it physically healing at a rapid speed "C-Carmen your leg" I exclaimed. She frowned then followed my gaze. She gasped
"I-It's healing" she said as everyone appeared into the room. Carlisle bent down and laid his hand on Carmen's leg
"Remarkable, it's like your ability's clearing the pain…no Hybrid heals that rapidly" he said in awe "It's definitely your ability, it's grown" he declared then we heard a beeping sound "I'll need to check this out tomorrow, they need me at the hospital" he said before leaving the house. Rosalie, Cathy and Emmett were by Carmen's side as they had a little family time.
"I think I'll check on the pack for a little while okay?" Jake told me
I nodded towards him. He smiled and bent down to peck my lips "Don't hold back" I told him. He nodded and left the room with Seth behind him
The rest of the family made our way downstairs whilst I went into my room and collapsed onto my bed. I stared up at the ceiling as I recalled my entire week. It was Valentine's Day, I got engaged, I found out my childhood best friend turned into a wolf, and possible threats are after my cousins. I did this all the time when I'm alone. I was broken away from my train of thought by a knock on my door
The door opened slightly where I saw her beautiful brown wavy hair and her flawless beauty
"You can come in mom" I insisted as I sat up on my bed. She sat on the edge of the bed
"What are you doing baby?" she asked with her usual smile. I smiled back
"Just…thinking, going through my week" she nodded
"Let me see that ring again" she suggested as she grabbed hold of my left hand. She smiled "It's really beautiful" she said sincerely. I nodded in agreement as I stared at it\
"Mom, when dad left you, did you ever think you'd be with Jacob?" I asked
"Um…it's always been your dad; it wasn't a choice between Jacob and Edward. I was just confused" She answered truthfully
"So the day you met Dad, did you know he was the one?" I conquered
"I wouldn't say 'I knew he was the one' but I was definitely intrigued by him, the day I found out he was a Vampire I knew I loved him unconditionally which left me more intrigued by him" She answered with a smile. I nodded understandingly
"Seems like Jason and Laura are following in your footsteps" I joked. She giggled
"You know, I've noticed that, I guess history's repeating itself isn't it" she said. I chuckled "but I am really happy my children have found their perfect mates, people who can bare their soul to and for that I'm forever grateful" she added with her radiant smile
"Thank you mommy" I said pulling her into a hug. For everything you've done for me I projected
"You're welcome baby, I love you…" she said kissing my head
"Forever and always" I mumbled holding the locket my mom gave me tightly in my hands. We stayed in that position for about two minutes until she pulled away
"Okay, Dinners ready and Jacob will be here soon" she said standing up from the bed "We've got an announcement to make" she said with a smile. I frowned in confusion but she just pressed her lips. I rolled my eyes
"Okay Mother" I joked. She smiled then left the room. My mother wasn't just my 'Mom' she was my best friend, someone I could relate to, and having our strong established relationship was best thing ever that I wouldn't change for the better…
