Disclaimer: I wish! I own anything you don't recognise, isn't that right guys?
Edward- Yes, Chantelle that's right.
Me- Is that sarcasm I here?
Jacob- Yeah it was!
Me- JACOB? What are you doing here? You're supposed to be with AMI!
Falon’s P.O.V
Beep, beep, beep. I slammed my hand down on the annoying thing trying to wake me up from the two hour peaceful sleep I got, last night was worst than most for the nightmares usually I’ll get at least six or seven hours sleep, groaning I turned over and went back to sleep. Shake, shake, mutter, shake.
“Falon, I’m going to school stay in bed today. I’m taking your car keys, so don’t freak out if you can’t find them, I’ll see you later and give you a call at lunch,” that voice belonged to Tammy.
“M’kay thanks, Tam,” I mumbled and pulled the covers tighter around me, hearing the door shut and car start up. I smiled.
Ah, my friend sleep seemed to be on good terms with me again. As soon as my head touched the pillow, I was out like a light, but something wasn’t quite right.
Tamara’s P.O.V
I had a bad feeling about today and I don’t know why, it might be the fact that I’ve never really had a day at school without my sister before or it might have something to do with me hearing Falon have her nightmare again. Sighing, I pulled into the spot where we parked yesterday, got out locking the car behind me, entering my homeroom and sitting at the back staring out the window.
“Excuse me, is this seat taken?” came a soft voice from my right.
I turned to see a girl with butterscotch blonde hair with a light blue streak and baby blue eyes. “Nope, my name is Tamara Halliwell, but you can call me Tammy. My sister does,” I replied smiling at the girl as she sat down and placed her bag on the floor next to her chair.
“Hi, I’m Sarah Ashcroft and it’s nice to meet you, Tammy.”
Ok, so maybe this day wouldn’t be so bad after all. Thankfully, all my lessons leading up to lunch went rather fast, so as soon as the bell rang, I said a rushed “see you later” to Sarah and sped to the car. I punched the house number into my phone, got into the car and waited for my sister to answer.
“’Ello?” answered a groggy voice that I recognised as Falon’s.
“Afternoon sister dearest, how are you or is that a stupid question?”
“Ugh, why are you so cheerful?” was her charming response and I couldn’t help, but snigger at her.
“It’s because I made a friend today in class, she seems really nice her name is Sarah Ashcroft.”
“That’s great, Tammy, I’m really happy for you darling, so I bet it’s peaceful without me there to fight with people, isn’t it?”
She questioned amusement in her voice. “Yeah, it’s pretty boring actually, but I think I’ll live. How are you?”
“I’m good, just took my tablets actually, so I’m feeling a little better.”
“Good … hey, guess who’s not here today either.”
“Err, Bob?”
“Who’s Bob?”
“Never mind, I was being sarcastic.”
“Ohhh, no but you get points for trying, Edward Cullen isn’t here.”
“And you’re telling me because?”
“I dunno just thought you should know.”
“Well, thanks I guess, I’m gonna go get changed and stuff and maybe make a cake. Got any preferences?”
I smiled and shook my head.
Cooking and baking was another of my sister’s talents. She made beautiful cakes for special occasions – she was a master baker and chef. In my opinion she could have opened her own restaurant.
“CHOCOLATE and strawberry with butter-icing please!” I heard her laughing over the phone.
“Ok, ok see ya later.”
I sighed, closed my phone getting out of the car and went to join Sarah for lunch.
Falon’s P.O.V
I took a nice hot bath to calm me down; I used my power heating up my skin and drying me off. Hey, it’s quicker than a towel drying my hair and everything. I opted for black sweatpants and a flame red tank-top with my knee high black and red socks and black and red vans.
I jumped over the banister, landed in a crouched position and straightened up turning on the fireplace. The downstairs was open and looked huge as I walked into the kitchen. I began getting the ingredients out for the cake. I thought about my friends Daisuke, Skyler and Kai.
“I should call them,” I muttered to myself, turning to put my iPod into the stereo, so I had something to listen to while I baked.
Two hours later, the cake was nearly done.
“Couple more flowers should do it,” I muttered, as my cell phone rang again this time playing ‘Suddenly I See’. She really IS psychic! “Yo, wicked witch of the west, what’s up?”
“Where’s Tammy? Is she with you?”
“No, she’s at school, should be back in about five to ten minutes. Why?” I frowned, listening.
“You sure? Right, see ya in a couple of days”
“Is wonder boy coming, too?”
“Yeah. Right, see ya”.
I hung up on Sky and phoned Tammy. “Home as quick as possible, Skyler had a premonition; she’s coming here in the next few days. There’s a demon after us and apparently we have some interesting guests coming round later or maybe now. Hurry up, be safe!”
I dropped the phone after I hung up and ran to get the protection crystals from my room as well as the Book of Shadows. I placed the crystals on the large glass coffee table with the book and cast a protection spell around the house. I heard the car pull up a few minutes later and sensed Tammy’s magical energy.
I had barely finished when there was a light knock on the door. Whoever it was had crappy timing, I thought, as I opened it.
“Dr Cullen, what are you doing here and who are they?” I asked, pointing at the people behind him. One was Edward Cullen – that was for sure.
“What was that energy just now, Falon?”
I looked around and motioned for them to go in.
“Ok, so you know what we are, have you told them?” I asked, closing the door
“Yes, they are my family.”
“Ok, well then, I guess I’ll get straight to the point – you can’t be here, any of you, it’s not safe.”
“What is that book?” asked the pixie looking girl from yesterday.
“Ok! Names and then I’ll tell you.”
“I’m Alice, this is Jasper, Rosalie and Emmett and you know Carlisle. Well, this is his wife Esme and then there’s Edward,” she said clearly, showing me the face that went with each name.
“Ok then, this is the Book of Shadows, which is all I can tell you for now until my sister shows up, but you still have to leave as it’s not safe.”
“Why is it not safe?” asked Edward.
I huffed and sank onto the couch. “Because there are things out there that shouldn’t exist, did you think that there couldn’t be anything worse out there than you? Well, I got news for ya, buddy! There is and it’s on its way here to get vanquished!”
There was another knock on the door.
“Why the hell are people coming round at the most irritating times?” I grumbled, getting up and going to the door again this time meeting a boy with long black hair.
“Hello, my name is Jacob Black, is everything ok out here?” he asked nervously
“Yes, thanks. Bye now!”
But as I went to shut the door, Tammy pulled in and ran out of the car.
“What is it and how do we kill it?” she asked, ignoring the fact that we weren’t alone.
“Kill?” Jacob raised an eyebrow.
“Oh damn, how could I have been so stupid who else is in there?” she asked.
“The Cullen’s … all of them … come in make yourself at home everyone else is,” I muttered darkly and walked back over to the sofa. I bounced down folding my arms and glaring at the book in front of me.
“Falon, Tamara, I need to know what’s going on here, so we can help you,” said Carlisle.
“You all want to know? Fine! There is an extremely powerful demon coming to kill us and when it gets here, I will kill it with my powers. Are you all happy now?” I just about screamed and that was the moment that I felt it. “Get in the kitchen now all of you and don’t move from there until I say so, don’t argue or I will fry you!”
As I said this, my arms ignited with angry looking flames.
“Wow,” they all whispered.
“Go, you can ask me about it later. Tammy, stay in there with them.”
The demon shimmered into the living room, stood right next to the coffee table and looked at the book, which in turn glowed and shot away from evil’s approaching hand towards me. I used my telekinesis and moved it into Tammy’s waiting hands.
“So this is the powerful and mighty Halliwell sister?” he growled out and licked his lips.
“Go to hell, dumbass” I retorted and threw a fireball at him, which hit the wall and left a scorch mark.
An energy ball flew right past me hitting the mirror behind me, causing it to smash into tiny fragments. I jumped over the sofa, grabbed his arm and turned up the heat with flames literally covering the whole of my body.
“Who sent you?”
He laughed at me and shook his head.
“Do you think vanquishing you is the worst I could do?” I questioned with a smile on my face.
“The Source sends his regards, little witches.”
He pushed me back and threw an energy ball. This time, it hit my stomach, knocking me into the wall.
“Falon!” someone shouted from the kitchen, as I shook my head.
“Now that was stupid,” I taunted and used my telekinesis to throw him around the room.
“Falon! Now!” Tammy shouted at me and I threw a fireball at him, which made him explode.
“Look what he did to my house,” was the only thing I said before sliding to the floor and poking the injury on my stomach. “Heh, this is fun,” I commented sarcastically and I heard Emmett laugh loudly.
Tammy came rushing to my side. “Are you ok? Does it hurt? What were you thinking? You could have gotten yourself killed idiot!” she screamed at me and I flinched.
“Ugh, stop shouting and help me up.”
It wasn’t Tammy that helped me up, but wait for it … dun, dun, dunnn! Edward Cullen aka glaring moron number one.
“Hold on a sec, will you?” I said.
He stopped and waited.
“Let the object of objection become, but a dream, as I cause the scene to be unseen,” I said and watched their faces as the mirror repaired itself, the scorch marks were erased and everything went back to being clean and tidy.
“Wow, you really have to teach me that,” laughed Alice from my side.
“Sure, can you put me on the sofa please?” I asked my knight in shining skin politely.
Wait! What? Back up! His skin is glittering, it’s really pretty.
“Sure,” he answered with a crocked smile that I’ve never seen before and as gently as he could, he lowered me onto the large comfy sofa and I closed my eyes.
“Night people, see ya when I wake up.”
“You can’t go to sleep yet, Falon,” came Carlisle’s smooth reply.
“Aww, why not? Tammy can answer your questions and don’t worry about that; it won’t be there in two minutes when he decides to show his face!” I shouted the last part at the ceiling and the little white and blue ball of light came down and there was my best friend and white-lighter Daisuke.
“Took you long enough, she could have been dead by now and where would you have been – sitting there watching?” Tammy yelled.
“What are you talking about, Tam? She’s fine! Look at her, she’s got that glare on her face, so she’s ok,” said Daisuke.
“Would you just heal me, you stupid ignorant sack?” I moaned.
He grinned and walked over, crouching to prod the wound earning him a slap in the back of the head from me.
“Is that any way to treat your best friend?” he asked innocently.
“When that best friend is being an ass? Yes, it is!”
They all snickered at that.
“Yeah, yeah, what is it … your time of the month?” he muttered, but I caught it.
“If it was you, would know about it, you little twit? Now hurry up before I really hit you.”
He sighed and placed his hands over my stomach and gold light came from them.
“What’s he doing?” whispered Jacob to Tammy, who I had just noticed was standing too close to him.
“He’s healing her, Dai is our white-lighter or guardian angel, he is also our connection to the elders,” she whispered into his ear, something wasn’t right and I narrowed my eyes at them.
“Ok, what happened in the kitchen? Why those two are so …” I asked Rosalie, who was watching Dai intently.
“You should ask him what he is first, that might help you, but just don’t lose it too much when you find out,” she grinned.
“Thanks and I’ll try not to freak out.”
Dai pulled away and prodded my now healed stomach again. “There ya go, all done,” he kept prodding me and I was getting annoyed quickly at it.
“I don’t think you should do that,” Jasper warned him, he of course shrugged and continued. I looked at Tammy and nodded.
I put my hand on his head and burnt his hair off and Tammy splashed him with ice cold water.
“YOU!” he shouted, causing me to laugh hysterically.
“Me,” I agreed.
“I hate you, you’re supposed to kill the evil things, but you are the most evil thing ever,” he accused.
“Thanks, but seriously no more compliments please.”
Everyone seemed to laugh at that and his hair grew back.
“Hey Dai, are you going back up there?” I asked.
He nodded his reply, sadness etched on his face.
“Come live with us! That way when I get hurt, I won’t have to wait as long. Skyler and wonder boy are coming soon, too.”
“We’ll see hotshot, we’ll see,” he said before giving me and Tammy a hug. “I’ll always be watching, but just in case, stick with these guys. I have a good feeling about them.” We nodded and watched as he orbed back ‘upstairs’.
So now we were sat in an awkward silence, which agitated me.
“So what is the special occasion?” asked the beautiful woman married to Carlisle.
“There is no special occasion, Mrs Cullen” answered Tammy from the love seat, where she sat cuddled comfortably with Jacob Black.
What was wrong with that picture? Meeting Alice’s eye, I glanced over at the two and raised an eyebrow, which she rolled her eyes at and grinned.
“The beautiful cake in the kitchen must be for someone.”
I smiled and scratched the back of my head and smiled. “Oh, erm, that was me I got bored and that was the result,” I answered her.
“YOU made that?” asked Jacob from across the room.
“Yeah, don’t sound too surprised, I am capable of doing stuff like that.”
He held his hand up.
“Sorry, just didn’t think that you were the kind of girl to do something like that is all.”
“And why is that, kid?”
“I’m not a kid!”
“HA, yeah right whatever, munchkin.”
“I’m taller than you.”
“Tut, tut, tut, size isn’t everything, sprig, remember that it may just save your life sometime,” he huffed, but smiled and leaned back closer to my sister.
“Maybe we should introduce ourselves properly before the pyro explodes,” suggested Jasper.
Oh, now this was gonna get interesting.
“As you know when you were first at the hospital, Tamara said there was more to me than met the eye. She was right, me and my family are – vampires, however, we are different from others of our kind, we drink animal blood, not human blood,” said Carlisle.
“Met vamps before, but they were a different kind than you they conformed to the myths. I’ll tell you about it some other time,” I replied.
“We also have certain gifts – I can read minds with the exception of yours, Alice can see the future of a person depending on the choices they make and Jasper can manipulate and sense emotions,” stated Edward from my side.
“What can I say? I’m just good like that I guess, can you read Tammy’s mind?” I asked him.
“Yes, a little, but I can’t get into your mind at all.”
“What you can do is called telepathy I know because I’m a telepath also and can read minds and if I wish to, I can control someone’s mind, however, it looks like we both have the same problem with Falon,” Tammy piped up.
“Alice, your gift is premonitions based on people’s choices, my friend. Skyler has a similar power however hers is based on objects and Jasper is what we call an empath; he has control over emotions and Emmett is what we call a giant.”
I added the last part with a grin.
“Yeah, I’m special, too,” I cracked up again. “So that just leaves Jacob and why he’s sitting that close to my sister?”
He grinned sheepishly.
“I’m a werewolf and can change into a wolf anytime I want, your sister is my imprint,” he said, as they both blushed.
I sat there trying to figure out just what the hell that meant, Edward watched me with his beautiful honey coloured eyes and then it clicked. Jasper placed a freezing cold hand on my shoulder to keep me sat down.
“OH HELL NO!” I roared, struggling to get up. I might not be as strong as them, but I was pretty damn close and with my temper, Edward and Emmett had to help him, too.
Rosalie laughed.
“I thought you weren’t going to freak out?” she asked, amused.
“I lied,” I said, still struggling against the boys while Tammy laughed. “Get off me NOW while you still have your hair – Tamara Halliwell, you and that baka-inu better be running – are you laughing at me, girl?”
“Did you just call him an idiot dog?” asked Alice.
“Yes, but I could have called him a lot more than that, but his innocent ears wouldn’t be able to stand it.” I was tiring and remembered I hadn’t taken my tablets yet. “Get off all of you and lose some weight. I won’t kill him yet, but we WILL have a nice long chat in the kitchen, NOW!”
They let me go and I stood up and walked into the kitchen.
“Take your tablets while you’re in there,” called Tammy from the other room.
“Whatever.”
I took my tablets and sat on one of the tall bar stools and put my head on the cold marble.
“Inu, get your tail in here or I’ll come and get you,” I threatened.
“Yes?” Jacob asked in a very small voice.
“Sit down,” he sat on the stool furthest away from me.
Tammy’s P.O.V
This is so not good; the others were looking at the kitchen with amused smiles, so I got up and stood near the door, so I could hear what they were saying.
“Don’t worry, he comes out alive,” soothed Alice from my left.
“Yeah, thanks, Alice.”
“Now you say my sister is your imprint, what exactly does that mean?” Falon asked
“It means that she is my soul mate, I will be whatever she needs me to be, she will have an influence on everything I do now and she will have the protection of me and my pack as will you,” my wolf replied.
“Ok, I’ll make this simple for you. If you hurt her, I will castrate you in the most painful way possible; I will then beat you to death with a shovel and bury you so far under that the heat from the Earth’s core will incinerate your sorry ass! Do I make myself clear?” she stated seriously. The others were grinning and I could tell that Emmett, Rosalie and Alice were trying not to laugh.
“Y – Yes, perfectly clear,” he squeaked and that set everyone off.
“You know it’s rude to eavesdrop on other people’s conversations,” she stated from the kitchen.
“Well, as much fun as this has been, I have to be at the hospital soon. I think we still have much to learn and we stick together if nothing else and protect those precious to us. I may not be able to see the future, but you already feel like part of the family, I’ll come and check in soon. Goodbye you two and keep out of trouble,” said Carlisle.
“Thank you Carlisle, you are our family and you’re right, we do stick together and protect each other, including the mutt,” replied Falon.
I looked at her shocked and she gave me a smile, as I launched myself at her wrapping her in a hug which nearly knocked her off the chair.
“C – Choking not b-breathing,” she gasped and I let her go. “Bye Carlisle, we’ll see you soon.”
Carlisle and Esme walked to the door. Esme gave us a quick hug and smile as she went.
“So what now?” I asked, turning back to face the others.
“Well, we saw some of the things that you can do, but what are your other powers?” asked Edward, staring at Falon who was oblivious to that, as she was cutting a piece of cake and putting it on a plate.
“Want some?” she asked Jake, who nodded, she cut him a large piece and put it out on a plate for him and then looked at me, raising an eyebrow.
“Well, it is my cake,” I replied, so while the three of us were eating cake the others waited patiently.
“Hey, I just remembered something really important,” stated Falon with a confused look on her face.
“Enlighten us, oh wise one,” Emmett mocked.
“You know, I could probably find a spell to turn you into an animal of some sort,” she continued. “Now that you guys are like part of our family, we can’t leave here, it’s a complication of sorts, but we can deal and now you need some protection. Wait here a sec.”
“Can I come with you?” asked Edward quietly.
“If you want to,” replied my sister again, oblivious to the fact that this boy liked her.
She walked back into the living room to get the book.
“So Edward, you and my sister, huh?”
He shrugged and nodded.
“I warn you she is broken and that kind of trust does not come easily to her, you will have to be patient, but she will come around.”
He nodded again, but seemed to want to ask more when Falon reappeared and everyone stared at her.
“I know you were talking about me, what did you say?” she questioned, looking at me
“Nothing much, just how much of a pain you are.”
“Yeah sure, when you wanna tell me the truth, I’ll be in the attic making power stones. Oh yeah, if there’s a really loud bang, come up and check that Edward’s still alive, will you?” Falon said, as she skipped up the stairs with the Book of Shadows, Edward trailing behind her.
Falon’s P.O.V
We had everything to do with our powers and witchcraft in the attic.
“So this is where you store everything magical?” asked Edward.
“Yep, this is where I come to think and find answers.”
I placed the Book on the stand where it always is and opened the cabinet that held all the crystals we had and pulled out the biggest one I could find.
“So you didn’t answer my previous question about your powers.”
“Huh what did you want to know?”
“What exactly are you powers?”
“Well, spell casting, I can mix various potions, I’m telekinetic- I can move things with my mind, I’m a pyrokinetic which is the flames and I am trained in different fighting styles. Tammy is much the same in the first two, however, she leans more towards the spells. She’s a telepath like you, no one can block her, except me and she has the power of hydrokinesis – control over water. Our friend said that our power would keep growing, but up to now, that’s it.”
He stood there contemplating everything I just told him while I sat on the floor inside the triquerta that was drawn there, holding the crystal in my left hand and focusing on making my hottest flame appear in my right hand.
Edward’s P.O.V
She sat there on the floor inside the symbol holding a large clear crystal.
“What are you going to do with that?” I questioned honestly curious, she cracked one of her eyes open just enough for me to see the red tint to her eyes.
“This crystal can hold power, so now that we’ve involved you guys into our world, you’re gonna need a little extra power, which is what I’m doing now, transferring a raw amount of my pyrokinesis and telekinesis into this crystal, then split it into eight pieces. One for each of you and you can put it anywhere as long as it’s with you then ya ‘ll will be able to use my powers to an extent and may be able to summon one of my guardians.”
I could hear her heartbeat getting faster, as the flame in her hand became hard to look at because of its brightness, the crystal changed from clear to a colour that resembled the flames that surrounded her before.
“One down, one to go,” she whispered so softly.
I barely caught it, which for someone with enhanced hearing like me was surprising. The stone was now swirled with a dark purple presumably her telekinetic energy.
“How many times have you done this?” I asked her softly, she didn’t speak at first.
“Once before – Tammy, Skyler, Kai and Daisuke all have stones like these from me,” her voice was beautiful and captivating and I found myself vaguely wondering if she knows what she was doing to me.
“Do you have any from someone else?”
“I have one from my mother – she was very protective of us, but her power was a little strange, she could always find the answers to other people’s problems. It was a more mentally inclined power like yours and Tammy’s.”
Her heartbeat was going a little too fast now and she started gritting her teeth together as if not to cry out, when all of a sudden she relaxed and slumped forward.
“Falon?”
She didn’t respond, but the crystal started vibrating violently with the sheer power that my witch had poured into it … my witch? Where had that come from, she doesn’t even know what she does to me and then there’s the warning that Tamara gave me before.
“Edward, why did you hate me the first time we met in Biology?”
That question caught me off guard and I hesitated answering her.
“I didn’t hate you, Falon, I was ashamed of myself you see to us each person’s blood smells different, you are like a drug to me – my own personal brand of heroine and I wanted your blood more than I had ever wanted anything before, but I don’t have the strength to stay away from you,” I explained, hoping that she would understand.
“I’m sorry that I put you through that,” she mumbled, regret evident in her voice.
I sat on the floor next to her and breathed in her addictively luscious scent.
“Don’t blame yourself, it’s not your fault, I’m strong enough to overcome it.”
She looked at me with a soft yet stunning smile on her face. “I know you are, Edward, trust me, I know,” she whispered, placing her scorching hand in my ice cold one.
“Why aren’t you afraid of me?”
“A lot of reasons actually, some make sense and some I’m still trying to figure out. I mean I’ve fought demons, warlocks, other vampire’s even wendigos! Hell, I’ve even had it out with the Queen of the Underworld Hecate, but another reason and one that I’m still trying to figure it out is that even when you were glaring at me yesterday, I felt safe around you like I could just be myself and to tell you the truth, that scares the crap outta me,” she answered while studying our interlocked hands.
I kept still and thought about it for awhile while we both enjoyed the moment.
“Are you two alive up there?” came the amused voice of my sister Alice.
“Come on, let’s get down there and give them their presents.”
She was now standing up still holding my hand and attempting to pull me up.
“Ugh, come on, it’s like trying to move a boulder,” she laughed and I got up, causing her to stumble towards the door pulling me with her.
“Alright, alright, for someone so small you sure got a big mouth.”
She called down the stairs laughing, she let go of my hand and I immediately felt the loss of contact and squashed the urge to recapture her hand with mine. She jumped the last few steps and walked back into the living room.
“Now this little chickies is what is going to give you lot some extra power.”
“Chickies?” asked Emmett.
“Ok, chickies and dudes, now don’t interrupt or I’ll forget what I was saying … oh yeah, that’s it – this will be split into eight pieces, one for each of you Carlisle and Esme will get theirs too, as long as you keep them on you like in a necklace, bracelet or something like that then to a certain extent you’ll be able to use my powers.”
“What about your guardians?” asked Tamara.
Falon shrugged.
There was a howl from outside and then a knock on the door.
He should have been out of there by now, what the hell is going on?
Falon’s P.O.V
“Hey guys, wanna see if you can break that into eight pieces about the same size?” I asked and tossed the crystal to Rosalie while I went to open the door.
I opened the door to see six boys and a girl stood on my doorstep, looking nervous and powerful.
“Yes, can I help you?” I asked politely, these must be rest of Jake’s pack.
The biggest male stepped forward. “Is Jacob here?” he asked, his tone ordering and demanding.
“Yes, he’s sat in the living room,” I answered, raising an eyebrow.
“Is there anyone with him?”
“Well, not that it’s any of your business, but yes, my sister and my new family, is that a problem ookami?”
“Be nice, Falon,” scolded my sister from behind me somewhere.
“Hey hotshot, I broke it!” Emmett shouted.
“What is that leech doing here?” snarled one of the boys at the back.
“They are here because they can be, you on the other hand, puppy, are on private property, so I suggest you shut your mouth before I kick your ass back to the edge of it do you understand?” I told him calmly.
“Are you threatening me?” he asked.
“And here I thought wolves had good hearing. I’ll make this simple – Alpha can stay if he behaves and the girl – sorry, don’t know your name yet. The rest, well, it would be less painful for you if you left on your own accord,” I said while smiling sweetly.
“I thought I told you to be nice,” Tammy said, coming to stand next to me. “I’m sorry. I apologize for her rudeness, but she is right on one thing – the Cullen’s are under our protection. You touch them and I won’t stop her, come in and be polite.”
I sighed and stomped my way into the room, where Alice pulled me into a swift hug
“So you all got a piece of the stone?” I asked.
She nodded. “I’ll give Carlisle and Esme theirs later.”
“Jacob, I apologize if you get any crap from your family in advance, I was intentionally rude to them, it was fun.”
Emmett and Edward laughed.
“I’m glad that you had fun on our account,” grinned Jacob. “Sam, why are you all here?”
“We got worried when you didn’t contact us and when we came to investigate, we smelled vampires and something else that didn’t belong here,” said Sam.
“I’m sorry, but it sounded like you were insinuating that the Cullen’s didn’t belong here?” questioned Tammy sweetly and I smirked and nodded at her.
“That’s because they don’t belong here! Filthy creatures like them should rot in hell!” piped up the same boy from before I stood up and marched over.
“You know what I’ve been to hell and it’s not a very nice place, but I’m sure I could take you there,” I growled at him.
“Falon, calm down or you’re just going to lose control,” Tammy warned while grabbing my arm and pulling me back.
“Is something burning?” asked the girl, as Tammy pushed me into Edward who sat on the chair in the corner of the room and I sat down on the floor in front of him staring at the floor thinking about the time I actually got sent to hell. God, that was bad.
“FALON CALM DOWN NOW OR I SWEAR TO GOD!” Tammy raged on.
“What? What did I do?” I asked, not looking up.
“You’re moving the sharp stuff in the kitchen.”
“Sorry,” I mumbled, as I got up and practically ran out of the room, bumping into at least four people on the way.
It wasn’t safe for me to be in there at the moment until I calmed down and reigned in my powers, I sat on the grass under a huge tree and crossed my legs breathing in and out with my eyes closed.
Tammy’s P.O.V
She ran out the front door and everyone except me watched her leave.
“Aren’t you going to go after her?” asked Sam
“Nope I’m safer in here at the moment, but hey if you wanna take your chances then go right ahead” I said calmly
“Tammy this is the rest of my pack, Sam the Alpha, Quil, Embry, Seth, Paul, Jared and Leah, guys this is Tammy my imprint” Jake made the introductions and I nodded politely.
They looked shocked when he said I was his imprint but being the mature person I was brushed it off.
“Er what is your sister doing?” asked Leah looking out one of the windows.
There was Falon sat in her meditation position at the base of a tree with her eyes closed.
“She’s talking to her guardians and venting excess power she’ll be fine in a minute or two but please don’t say anything that might make her angry” I pleaded with them.
‘Suddenly I see’ sounded and I realised it was Falon’s phone on the table, I checked the caller ID before answering and regretted it as I was nearly deafened by the voice on the other end.
“WHERE IS SHE THE MORON!!?”
I pulled it away from my ear and grimaced the witch was angry and that never ended well.
“SHUT UP SKYLER! Now she’s outside calming down, yes she’s fine and when you said ‘interesting visitors’ you could have been more specific”
I heard laughter at the other end and smiled.
“Can you put her on I had another vision” she asked
“Sure as long as you don’t tell her something that is just going to get her going again”
I turned to look out the window again and noticed that she wasn’t there.
“Tammy can I have my phone now please?” came her voice from behind me.
I turned round handed her the phone and pushed her arm a bit which made her smile.
“This better be good because I’m just about ready to go insane and by the way I’m not a moron” Falon argued putting her on speaker phone.
“Yes actually you are did you even check the book and read about the demon you killed?” Sky questioned
“I’m in trouble aren’t I?”
“You have no idea! That demon was working for the source but it comes in packs and its friends aren’t going to be very happy with you”
“Oh goody for me!” I said sarcastically
“Hey don’t get bitchy with me just coz you can’t go one day without causing trouble” retorted Sky
Falon laughed “Looks who’s talking and don’t be jealous you old hag you cause just as much trouble as me”
I don’t think Falon remembered anyone was in the room until Paul cleared his throat loudly earning himself a glare from my sister.
“I’m sorry Sky but were going to have to skip the pleasantries for today some asshole is very impatient and I have to be nice coz he’s a part of Tammy’s boyfriend’s pack” she ground out in a sickly sweet voice.
“Wow there seems to be a lot of losers in Forks and you don’t have to be nice to anyone .... I know you have me on speaker phone so listen up Tam good for you girl, Tammy’s boyfriend were guna have a chat real soon and if you even think about hurting her they will write books on what I do to you, well when they eventually find your body. Falon you have to vanquish the head of the pack and don’t worry he’ll find you. Bye guys and Kai says he’ll see ya soon.”
“See ya” we both said at the same time and Falon out the phone down and rubbed her eyes.
“Ok what was that all about? Demon’s and you have to kill them?” asked Paul sceptically looking at my sister with a sneer.
Ohhh not good do these people listen I said not to make her angry as I stood behind her I made stopping motions with my arms and shook my head but it was too late and I put my head down and shook it slowly.
“You know what I’ve had just about enough of you and your crappy attitude wolf, do you even know what I am or what I could do to you no, I didn’t think so, if I were you I’d think before I spoke or you just might find yourself in my bad books and trust me that’s not pretty” she stated deadly quiet and in a threatening way.
“Falon this is Sam the Alpha, Leah, Seth, Quil, Embry, Jared and the one you don’t like is Paul” she nodded and shook hands with Sam and Leah and gave a small smile to the others except Paul.
“Now Falon please would you explain to us what exactly is going on?” Sam asked politely.
She just stood there for a minute and everyone looked at her when she smiled and ran up the stairs again, everyone turned to look at me and Leah looked like she wanted to laugh and then we heard a band and a muffled ‘ouch’ which made me and Leah go into hysterics and all the wolves looked at us like we belonged in a white padded room. I could smell something burning.
“Your sister is hilarious, seriously, what’s burning?” asked Leah through her laughter.
Falon came back down the stairs with her shirt singed and smoking a little and the Book of Shadows in her hands and walked over to the chair where Edward was and sat on the floor in front of it and opened it to a certain page.
“Ok so sorry about before just had to do something before I forgot, now this should answer your questions Sam” and passed him the book “Oh and if you drop it I am in no way responsible for what happens to you” she added as he stood there and read.
“What is he reading?” asked Jasper
“He’s reading about what we are, basically everything I told you guys before and what I told Edward about our powers” she shrugged.
“So you can do all this?” asked Sam handing the book to me.
Everyone seemed to start talking all at once and Falon looked around as if she sensed something. I watched her as she got up to look out the window, it was getting darker now and her eyes glowed red a little which I knew meant something was wrong. She tilted her head and frowned.
“Edward do you hear anything outside?” she whispered to him.
“No, why? What’s wrong?”
“There’s something out there it’s watching us from the darkness” she whispered again.
“Tammy can you feel anything?” she asked turning to me.
I closed my eyes and felt through the moisture in the air and sensed that there was something there, I looked deeper it was a guy looked to be about 18. I felt someone shaking me and opened my eyes which were now glowing a pure blue to see Falon in front of me, I nodded and she made a growling noise and looked towards the window.
“Sit down and don’t move until you stop feeling dizzy” she ordered handing me to Jacob as she stomped towards the door.
“Falon be careful” I whispered and she turned and winked at me with a grin on her face.
“I’m always careful Tam, the rest of you stay here and look after her”
She engulfed her hand in fire and walked out the front door, the with the rest of the pack staring after her in shock, while Paul looked ready to keel over, which obviously made me laugh at him but I just held my head. I looked at Edward and found him staring out the window intently looking worried.
“She’ll be fine Edward, she knows what she’s doing” I reassured him
I felt her magic and tensed until it died down a few minutes later and she came back in holding her side, with three angry red scratch marks across her chest and a piece of cloth in her hand. Edward and Alice immediately went to her and sat her on the couch.
Falon’s P.O.V
“What happened?” Alice asked
“Nothing he got in a lucky shot that’s all but on the bright side I can track it now” I told them.
“What are the marks across your chest? I know your in pain.” asked Jasper frowning.
“I don’t feel pain I block it out” I told him with a blank look
“We have to get going, I hope your ok Falon, we’ll be back for a visit soon and if you need help don’t hesitate to ask. Tammy being Jacob’s imprint you are now under our protection.”
“Thank you Sam and all of you” Tammy replied smiling.
I nodded and got up with a little help from Edward and walked over to them and shook everyone’s hand even Paul’s and grinned at him.
“Your not bad for a mutt” I laughed “Thank you and when you come by I’ll have a present for you, but I need to know how many are in your family all of them?”
“All of them? Including us there are 11” he said walking out the door taking the rest of his pack except Jake with him.
“Ok guys I want you all to be careful until I can vanquish this creep ok?”
They all looked at me amused, except maybe Rosalie there was something else there that I couldn’t read and I was too tired to try.
“You guys should get home too, Carlisle and Esme are probably worried about you” I stated.
“You mean leave you two here so that thing can come and attack you while you sleep?” I nodded at Emmett and smirked “Nope, were good thanks hotshot” he said crossing his arms.
“Rose take him home before I make him go, we’ll be fine and it’ll make me feel better knowing that you guys are safe” I practically begged
“Your sure that you’ll be ok?” she asked
I nodded and prayed that they’d leave so I could bandage my side, I know that Tammy worries about me but that demon did something and I don’t know what it was but it hurt like a bitch and I was surprised Jasper couldn’t feel my discomfort I guess it was because of the other emotions in the room.
“We’ll go but you gotta go get some rest I can tell you haven’t been sleeping enough and phone us if ANYTHING happens?” he bargained
“Yes Sir! I promise now go and by the way I sleep fine thanks, Night guys see ya in school” I replied hugging them carefully, Jasper gave me a look and Edward didn’t move as they walked out the door smiling and waved. I looked at Tammy and nodded that it was ok for Jacob to stay and she smiled and hugged me and I winced accidentally but hugged her back and whispered in her ear.
“Separate beds, I don’t want to be an Aunty just yet” and laughed as she blushed and grabbed Jacob’s hand and pulled him upstairs.
“Edward please?” I begged him
“I’m not going anywhere Falon not until you tell me what’s really wrong, I know your in pain even though you may not show it. You don’t have to be strong all the time” he pleaded in a sincere tone.
I went to the couch and lifted up my top just enough so he could see the black, purple and yellow bruise that was already there, he didn’t say anything he just came and kneeled on the floor in front of me running his ice cold fingers over it slightly. His jaw was clenched and I could see the anger in his golden eyes as he looked up at me and I felt myself blush, Why? Why is he doing this to me I swore I would never let anyone else in like this, how is he doing this? He pulled my top back down and pulled me to him and didn’t let go. I sighed and closed my eyes inhaling his scent which sent my senses on high alert I can’t do this can I?.
“Are you staying?” I asked in a hushed tone
“As long as you want me to, I’ll be here” I nodded at his answer and found myself thinking that maybe...just maybe this would work.
“Do you sleep Edward?” I asked opening one of my eyes slightly to look at him.
“No I don’t sleep but you look as though your ready to drop right here” he smiled that cute crooked smile and for the second time tonight I found myself blushing.
“No your comfy is all” I joked and he laughed, it sent a tingling feeling through me and I realised that I liked him, I actually genuinely liked this guy.
I closed my eyes and evened out my breathing, snuggling closer to him and for the first time in years I slept peacefully all thanks to Edward Cullen.
