Disclamer: I do not own Twilight, only Cira.


Chapter 4

Here goes nothing. I thought as I showed them what was on my plam.

There was a collective gasp as everyone took in the grey, lilac and light blue flame on my plam. My fires colour would change depending on how I was feeling. (A/N: Check down at the bottom of this chap for colour guide)

"Cira, what, is that-" Billy stuttered, shocked.

"Fire? Yes." I said, watching the flame changed it's colour to dusty pink, pink, green, lilac and light blue.

"Why did it change?" I heard Seth ask curiously.

"Because my feeling change." I said, but they still looked clueless. "It's kind of like an aura, only an aura shows someones true intentions, if their hurt and what their feeling and my flame only shows my what I'm feeling. So, right now I'm feeling Relief, love, safety, happiness and sadness."

"Why those feelings?" Billy asked, worried as always.

"Relief that you seem to accept me and love for my family, new and old. Safety because I'm home and, well I just feel safe for the first time in years. Happiness at seeing you and sadness because of seeing everything I've missed out on and seeing the touch of fear in the wolves eyes." I said.

"We're not scared of you." An angry looking wolf, he must be Paul, I remember my pack saying he imprinted on my neice and how he has anger issues.

"Of course your not. Your too proud and confident to be afraid of me." I closed my fist, the flame disolving against my flame proof skin, as he opened his mouth to argue but I continued. "No, your scared of the unknown. You don't know what will happen now and your scared. You think, because I'm older, I will start changing things; I mean just by being here I already have.

"Also you are annoyed because Taki Aki gave me, a girl, such a dangerious power and you think I might accidentally hurt your imprint, my neice, and you are scared you will lose her.

"Don't deny it, I've lived too long, seen too much. I know what makes people tick and I know when someone is lying to me."

I got up and left the room, feeling my emotions start to go haywire, I couldn't be near anyone when my emotions started running high.

I burst out of the front door and started running, not bothering with pasing.

Maybe it was a bad idea to come back, I'm just putting everyone in danger, maybe I should leave again.

But I can't. I've seen Billy and he knows I'm alive, I can't leave him again, it hurt enough the first time and I can't let him, or me, go through that again.

So I just kept running, knowing I had to go back but willing to prolong it for as long as possable.


I ran around Forks and the resivation for hours, occasionally passing a wolf, but it was getting late and, dispite know I've been living wild for years, he would be worried.

So I started running back to the direction of the sea, following the sounds of the distant waves, knowing they would lead me home.

As I ran, I remembered when Billy and I were child, way before the whole wolf thing happened, and the fun we used to have.

I remember how we would spend hours playing in the woods and skimming rocks on the beach. How, as we got older, we would go clift diving with the other teens on the res.

I remembered our first time, we were thirteen and I was going through my rebelious phase, Billy was always the sensible one out of the two of us. I'd heard some boys at school talk about it and though it would be fun and it was, mostly.

[Flashback]

"Come on Billy! Everyone's doing it! It'll be fun!" I called, running through the forest, up to the lower clifts.

"I don't know Cira, it seems dangerous." A thirteen-year-old Billy said, following me causiously.

"Er, stop it, your turning into mom."

"I am not! And she's just trying to keep us safe!"

"Yeah well, I don't need her to tell me what I can and can not do. Now come on!" I said, breaking through the trees onto the clift.

"I don't know." Billy said, still unsure as I got ready to jump. I was just wearing a tank and shorts as it was one of the rare, hot days at La Push. I never wore shoes if I could help it, which caused me hell when I was a kid.

"Well even if your not, I am. Last chance." I said, noticing his hesitatation, I jumped.

"Cira!" I heard his frantic scream which morphed into a half frighten, half exhilarated cry signalling to me that he had, indeed, jumped in after me.

He landed in the cool water slightly after me and I raced him to the shore. I can't tell you how many shocked mothers there were when we got out, drenched and laughing our asses off.

"Never do that again." Billy said once we had finally sobered up.

"Ok, I promise." I said, but we both knew it was a lie.

[End of Flashback]

I had arrived back home and I saw Billy watching me out of the window of the lounge.

"I'm gonna sleep out here tonight." I said loud enough for him too hear.

"Cira." He started to protest, his voice at it's usual sound level, knowing I could hear him.

"I'll be fine, I don't like too be indoors to long, I'm used to the warmth of the forest. We'll speak tommorrow." I said, heading into the forest, jumping into the branches of a nice, sturdy, oak and settled down for the night.
