Jacob's P.O.V
The air was crisp but light as we made our way towards the bloodsuckers. The ground crunched under our feet when we walked at leisure pace. My pack ready and waiting behind me just as eager to end this. The extended pack accompanying us a bit jumpy. Jeeze, I thought these guys had fighting experience. "Stick to the plan, and don't stray." I gave the command through our link. The only ones that didn't hear was the other pack. We were almost there when their sickly sweet scent hit our nose causing most to cringe in disgust. As planned, The extended pack hangs back into the forest out of sight awaiting my signal.
Our sight lands on the criminals at large, all of them standing there like they haven't committed a great injustice. No sign of Edward, figures. The coward is probably hiding from this fight. No matter, I will keep to my word and take out his family, then I will get him. Coming to a holt about 500 feet from them, I shift so we can communicate. The doctor steps forward and speaks.
"Jacob, please see reason. We have committed no crime other than crossing the border. Which you all violated by kidnapping our daughter." I let loose a dark laugh at the term of endearment.
"Daughter, that's a laugh. She is nothing more than a food source to you bunch and you know it. How dare you try and act innocent, you know what you have done. The life of an imprint that you have claimed!" At this Sam growls and steps forward. A quick hush from me stops him.
"We have done no such thing. If a person of La Push his dead it is because of Edward."
"He is apart of your family and therefore you all are just as guilty." They all growl at us and my pack responds with their own. "He, is not, our family." huh, guess Cullen was telling some true after all. Doesn't matter, they will all die. I look and find the traitors Leah and Seth among their ranks. Leah, I always knew she'd defect but Seth, I'm surprised at. The boy was too weak to go against orders so I'm thrown for a loop when I find him shifted along side the enemy.
"Seth, come here." I call to him, he doesn't budge. "Seth, get over here, now." Still nothing.
"You will obey me and come here!" The alpha command is given and I'm shocked when he doesn't even flinch. This is impossible. "Seth is apart of our family. He isn't your pet anymore." The blond one sneers. She'll have to be the first to go.
"Fine. Keep him, he was a lousy pack mate anyway." A noise to our left turns everyone towards it. The coward Edward stepped out. The Cullens growl at his arrival and it makes me wonder but not too much. "How nice of you to join us." He waves me off which angers me.
"Piece of shit!" The blond Barbie yells out to which he just laughs at.
"Rosalie, shut up." Bella looks so scared. "Don't worry love, I will save you from them." The dick says softly.
"I'm not your love, Edward. I'm not your anything."
"Of course you are Bella, you're my mate. We will be together as soon as I get you away from my family." Speaking of which.
"Why are their eyes yellow and yours are red?" I ask accusingly. He turns with an annoyed look towards me. "It's a trick. They want to appear as the good guys so they hunted a few animals before hand."
"That's a lie!" They shout but he just keeps on. "It doesn't take much for our eyes to change. One or two animals at most." He's lying and I know he is but I don't care because all are guilty in my eyes. "Edward," The doctor calls out to him. "You have gone too far this time."
"Aren't you happy to see my father ?" The last word sneered at the man. "You aren't my son, you are nothing to us." His eyes flash black for a moment before returning. Looks like they hate Cullen as much at I do.
"Enough of this. You crossed the treaty line, you've killed a member of our tribe, you all will die today."
"Try and it and we will rip you apart." Another blond woman with straight hair growls out. I smirk at her and start to shake. "I'll take my chances." With that I shifted and charged, today is the day.
Carlisle's P.O.V.
Jacob wouldn't see reason to my plea. He was so blinded by his hate for vampires that nothing was getting through to him. He gave the command to start the attack and it has begun. Bella was placed in between my wife and Carmen while the rest of us charged ahead to meet the wolves. Jasper was the first to strike knocking a dark grey wolf back several feet. I met Jacob head on with a hit of my own but a hit from another threw me off before I could finish the job. Rosalie spared no one in her attack. Cold and calculated was her approach and it did wonders for us. Every wolf that dared to step up to my eldest daughter was met with a blow so hard bones crunched. I didn't want to kill the wolves but their persistent attack made it hard to stay true to my original plan.
Jasper's P.O.V
To say I was proud of my family was an understatement. Everyone was doing as they were taught and then some. Carlisle was still tryin' to save them and you could tell in his movements. The man wouldn't last long if he kept that attitude. My little woman was dancing around the mutts like it was all a game. Her movements so graceful you could cry from watchin'. Emmett was wrestling with the beast, laughin' in their face which only angered his opponent. Then a dark brown wolf snuck up behind rose while she was facing off against the black wolf. I tried to reach her in time but I was tied down with two myself. She didn't disappoint when she knocked the black wolf away and turned just in time as the brown wolf lunged for her.
She grasped him around the neck and pulled until his neck broke. One down. The sisters fought as a unit taking out a group of wolves before moving on to the next. It was clear that we would have to use deadly force against them due to their fast healin'. A wolf made a move towards bella and it seemed like time stopped. He was caught mid jump before he was ripped apart in the most vicious way by Esme, our mother.
"KILL THEM ALL!" Carlisle bellows out. I guess seein' his youngest child almost killed changed his views. From then on wolves were dropping right and left. Jacob looked angrier than when he first started and howled towards the sky. Heavy thudding echoed from behind us but no one could turn for fear of being ripped apart. After I finished off a prick I turned to see 10 more wolves push through. I looked around the area to find a horrific scene before me. In just a short amount of time the tables turned. These wolves were experienced fighters and it showed. Emmett was fightin' with one arm, Carmen had to help him. Charlie was just a torso grabbin' whatever he could reach and tearing it apart. Leah was down unconscious with Seth and Irina hoverin' over her fending off the attackers. Alice's screams pulls me from my state. A wolf is on top of her tryin' to chomp down and I'm seein' red. I make a mad dash over to my woman and tear the animal a top her in two. Next, Alice and I rip into the wolf that currently had Emmett fightin' for his life. Rose was ok, better than ok. She was worried for Emmett and was fighting her way to him. Carlisle was now missin' a limb but kept up the good fight. We needed to end this and quickly.
Bella's P.O.V
This was horrible. Everywhere I looked my family was fighting for their lives or missing a body part. Two wolves got passed my family and ran at me and mom. Mom didn't hesitate to attack taking out one wolf immediately and fending off the other. The big yellowish wolf dodged her attack and threw her to the ground. It was about to make the killer blow. "STOP!" I yell to the wolf. It freezes on the spot and leaves enough time for mom to decapitate it. When she's done, she's right back in front of me snarling at anything that moves.
Edward's P.O.V
This was ridiculous. They couldn't even last an hour with my family? I'll admit that they all gotten good but really? I've never seen mother so primal before. Father was currently abandoning his morals for 'help all' and tearing into a mutt with his one arm looking every bit the 300 year old vampire he is. I needed to make my move and fast. After the two fools that attacked mother perished I waited for another to take their place. It wasn't long before another fool stepped up to complete the task. I circled back around in the shadows behind mother and my love. While mother was engaged in another fight, I made my move to bella. I'm inches away before I'm tossed away from my target.
Fucking Rosalie!
"Stay out of this Rosalie."
"Like hell Cuntward." I twitch at the name. "You always did get in the way. Killing you will be a personal pleasure."
"Waiting on you, princess." We both jump towards the other in fury of fist and biting. I stuck the side of her head but she responded with a left hook. A kick to her side and I could hear the cracks. I smirk when she stumbles backwards. I don't waste time in my attack, heading for the final blow. She dodges and kicks me as hard as he can in the groin. Mother fucker that hurt. I fall to the ground gasping unneeded breath. I cup my privates to find them shattered where my hand lays.
Fucking cunt will pay for that. I snarl and wait for her to charge again. When she does, I grab a hold of her left arm and pull with all my might. A metal screeching sound reaches my ears and it's dislodged. She screams in pain before giving me the mother of all glares. Ha, I've got her and she knows it. I move to my left outside to take her other arm but the bitch moves, rolling on the ground to grab her arm. She'll never reattach it in time. Once more I moved to strike but am thwarted with a clean shot to my face. When I stand again, I find Rosalie holding her severed arm in her other hand using it as a weapon.
Unbelievable.
Kate's P.O.V
This was a massacre. All around me were bodies and body parts. Irina was over her mate protecting her and I couldn't blame her. Tanya was showing these bastards what it meant to be an ancient vampire taking on three at a time by Eleazar and Victoria. Charlie, bless his soul was still putting up the good fight launching his upper half at wolves, strangling them to death. I look around to offer help to find the funniest site in the world. Rosalie fucking Hale is beating the shit out of Edward with her cut off arm. The boy looks gob smacked with every blow she delivers to his scarred face. That's my girl. Bella looks close to a panic attack and Esme is a whirlwind of blood, and fur as she destroys her opponents.
A snarl pulls me around to face my next target. Just as quick as it charges does it stop dead in it's tracks. Strange. I don't let my guard down and keep my eyes on it. The wolf shifts into human form and I come face to face with an old friend. "Takani?" I say confused.
"Katarina? What is going on?" His deep voice full of frustration. "What the hell are you doing here? Why are you helping them?!" I demand coming closer to the man.
"Jacob said that you all offended his tribe and that they needed help. I did not know it was your family." He's eyes shown shame and sadness before turning to fury. "I knew he was no good. I told father but he wanted to help. If he had known, Katarina I swear, if we had known we would have never attacked." I believed him instantly. Takani was a good man. His people were very mild mannered and honorable. The time I spent with them in their tribe was very prosperous for both our families.
"Takani, you have to call off your wolves before anymore of your people die." My plea did not go unheard. He let loose a piercing bark and the extra wolves stopped instantly before backing away from their current fight. My family looked confused but took the time to regroup. Looking around, there was no La Push wolves left except for the alpha who looked confused and pissed. Loud thuds made everyone turn towards the back of the field. We all looked just in time to see Edward attack rose with pieces of his body chipped away. The beautiful woman waits stock stills has the deranged man comes at her. She draws back with her limp arm just as he's in reach. She swung and a sickening pop rings throughout the area as the limb makes contact. Edwards head detaches from his body, flying off a few feet from them both.
The yard is quite for a few seconds before, "HOME RUN!" Her bear of a mate yells out holding up his served arm in celebration. My cousin looks pleased with herself as a victory smirk paints her face and she slings her arm over her shoulder as if it was a bat. We are all brought back to the issue at hand when an angry growl erupts from the lone La Push shifter. "What the hell are you all doing?! Attack!" He yells naked as the day he was born. Takani and his pack move to our side, each with equal looks of fury on their faces.
"Jacob Ephraim Black." The boy twitches slightly at the call of his full name. "You have deceived us and taken advantage of our pack. You have called false witness against a coven that has done you no wrong. Against the personal friend of chief White Bear of the Sioux Tribe." Jacob paled at the news and looked around as the remaining pack surrounded him. When it seemed like the offended men were going to attack, a voice calls out.
"Wait!" Bella runs forward with Esme and Tanya pushed into her side. "Don't kill him." Well give a look a disbelief.
"Bella, honey, this boy is the reason that we are all here. That some of us are missin' limbs, he can't walk away free." The major tries to reason with him. "I asked that they not kill him, not that he won't be punished." A dark look takes over my new sister as she speaks again.
"Jacob Black." Her voice makes us all flinch. It's heavy and commanding with undertones of hatred in it. "You will permanently shift into your wolf form. You will never imprint nor join another pack again. You will be stripped of your alpha duties. You will wonder the earth for the rest of your eternity alone as the animal you are." When she is done speaking, Jacob's bones snap harshly. Quicker than most can register, he's back in his wolf form. The family and pack watches as the wolf once man's eyes blank out. The light dims within him and he walks away towards the forest sniffing the ground metaphorically blind, death, and dumb. A beast that will never walk on two feet again. A true animal.
Bella's P.O.V
When Jacob wandered away in his stupor every one gathered their limbs and helped attach it to their loved ones. Mates were frantic with worry until their mate was completed once again. Victoria ran around the field like a mad woman until all of Charlie was put back together. The man looked miffed at having been torn in two and I silently chuckled. That's Charlie for you. Leah had regained consciousness and was being babied by Irina. Speaking of mate, mine made it a new mission to never let me touch the ground again. I was in her arms with her nuzzling me to death. Mom and Dad shared a light kiss before coming over to us and hugging both Tanya and myself. I looked at rose to see her smirking at Emmett and Kate while they animatedly praised her for knocking Edward's head off with her own arm.
Speaking of Edward, we all gathered around his body once we were all put back together and what not. Kate and Tanya pulled off his legs and Jasper pulled off one of his arms. Per request for me, his head was reattached. When his eyes gained focus he sneers for a moment before smirking.
"I knew you couldn't kill me. You all love me too much, I'm family." Every one gives him a look of disgust.
"They didn't do it because they wanted to Edward. They did it as a favor to me." He tries to put on a loving face but it holds no effect over me. "Bella, I'm your mate. Of course you don't want me to be killed. Once you put me back together I swear I'll make it up to you all that I have done." Tanya growls fiercely at the once proud vampire.
"We aren't going to be anything ever Edward. You misunderstand me. I didn't ask for you to be put back together so we could be together. I don't love you, I never will. Tanya is my mate, my life, my everything. I only did this because I felt that you deserved special attention like Jacob." His face contorts to anger at my words.
"You can't get rid of me Bella. I'm meant to have you, you are MINE!" I shake my head in a amusement. He really has hit rock bottom. "I'm done trying to make you see reason Edward. With your good arm I want you to tear a hole in your side." He locks up before struggling to disobey me. In the end, his hand painfully slow digs into his side tearing into his skin until a chunk is taken out. His scream of agony is music to my ears.
"That was for Emily. Now, one by one rip out your teeth." His face turns to fear but he complies and starts to dislodge his teeth one at a time. "Now your tongue." His cries of pain do nothing to deter me in my quest for justice. "Now your other side." He complies, he has no choice. I look over to my darling mate who seems pleased by the display along with the rest of my family. "Love, will you do the honors?"
"With pleasure." Is all she says and stalks up to the fallen vampire with glee. The true fear Edward displays in his final hour is enough to make me smile alone. Tanya places both hands on either side of his head before ripping it off with one great jerk, silencing the mind reader for all eternity.
One Month Later
It has been one month since our battle with the wolves. One month since we've earned our peace and right to live. My family and I are still in Denali happier than ever. Charlie and Victoria decided to travel a bit with promise to return and to check in every so often. Seth and Riley opted to stay with the family, both in love and mushy as ever. Takani and his pack left a day later after helping us clean up the field of evidence and sharing how he and Kate met. They were a nice bunch and we apologized often for having killed some of his family. He was understanding but sad, he knew it wasn't our fault but Jacob's. We haven't seen Jacob since I took away his ability to shift for forever.
Tanya and I were closer than ever. Much to my parent's dismay, we've successfully tagged the entire house with our activities. Mom was mortified when she caught us once which lead to me being grounded for a few days. We talked it over and decided that I was to be turned today. A decision that was long over due.
"Bella, it's time sweetheart." Dad pops into the study where I am reading. Without a word I jump up and follow him to the medical room. I was nervous but excited, scared but also exhilarated. All emotions I could feel I was feeling it. Tanya was soon by my side placing comfort kisses on my lips. The entire family lined the hallway giving me looks of love and courage. "You'll do just fine darlin'." My major said placing a kiss to my forehead.
"As soon as your up, we are going to wrestle."
"You got it, Emmett." I promise him. Rose looks like she's about to vomit and I can't help but stop and hug her tightly. "I'll be fine. Everything will be ok." I whisper into her chest. She nods briefly before letting me go and nuzzling under Emmett's arm.
When we reach the room, a small make shift bed has been made up for me. Dad, mom, Tanya, Eleazar, and Carmen are all in the room with me and my nerves skyrocket. A wave of calm and courage hit me and I whisper a thank you to my southern brother. "Just relax, baby. Everything will be ok." Dad places me on the bed before everyone. This is it, the moment I've waited for, my eternity. I watch as Tanya comes closer with mom and dad right next to her. Mom takes my right arm and gently kisses my wrist as dad does the same to my left. My love places a light kiss on my lips before placing one on my pulse point.
"I love you, Bella." She whispers and all three bite down into their respective places. Dad my left wrist, mom my right, and Tanya my neck. The fire spreads throughout my body and I scream to the high heavens. I can no longer keep my eyes open because of the pain. I feel my muscles melt within me. My blood, burn and dissipate before being replaced by something else. My venom. I scream and scream and scream. For what seems like years, I scream. A cold body is placed beside me and I want to roll into it. It brings me comfort from the fire tearing me apart. I know it's my mate but I can't speak.
Then, the flashes begin. Pictures of my life from early childhood memories push through. Me with Charlie and Renee at Christmas. Me falling off of my first bike without training wheels. My heartbeat quickens at deadly speeds. It's so loud it's all I can hear. A memory of first meeting Edward and his family. After that, me in the woods crying at their departure. I can't breathe, too hot. Next, mom and dad standing before me again with looks of love and regret. I'm dying, I'll never make it. The first time I laid eyes on Tanya and what I felt.
So hot.
The first time we made love. My heart is slowing down. The battle with the shifters. So slow now, and my body chills with a flip of a switch. The smiling faces of my family cheering me on as I take my last steps as a human. One last beat.
Quiet.
I'm dead, I think. I think I didn't survive the change and I'm dead. "Bella, open your eyes love. Please." I know that voice. That smooth as silk voice coaxing me. In a blink my eyes snap open to find myself in a room with other vampires. I sit up too fast and nearly launch myself off the bed. As I scan their ecstatic faces my memory returns in full flood. These are the people that love me. This is my family for forever. I smile back at them and if possible their smiles become even brighter. I lock eyes with the most beautiful vampire I've ever seen. Her golden eyes pull me in ten fold of that when I was human. I feel my eyes darken with pleasure and recognition as I utter one word, just one.
" MINE!"
No one's P.O.V
The day was trickling into late afternoon and the staff was busy at work. A loyal servant hastily made his way to the main study of that of his master. "My lords, I have news." The man bows and doesn't lift his head until he is commanded to do so. "What is it? Speak up." The blonde man commands.
"It seems as though our kind has been messy and massacred a small village near the Olympic Coven." The middle man closes his book and quickly blurs over to his servant at the news offering his hand. When the servant's hand is grasped, the black haired master glazes over before he comes back. "Oh my."
"Brother?" The blond man asks expectantly. "It seems as though are dear friend Carlisle has been busy. I think it's time to pay him a visit."
"Yes Lord Aro." A wicked grin spreads across both men's faces as they continue on with their reading.
I hope I did not let you lot down with the ending I saw fit. As you have guessed it, there will be a sequel. :) If you're interest I will get started on that as soon as I can.
This has been an amazing ride with you all and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. Here's to you, Cheers.
