Athena Swan loudly greets her new and shy cousins as they move in with her uncle, Charlie Swan. Athena is the polar opposite of the Swan sisters, she's a social butterfly, a blunt person, even her features are the opposite of theirs. But, for a pair...

Athena frowned as she climbed through the window of her cousins window, she had been summoned to come over and she didn't know why, she had her suspicions though.
"What did Bella do now?" Athena questions with a small sigh, closing the window behind her, brushing off the cold air that she had brought in with her.
"Can you use the link to find or see her?" Riley quizzed, Athena seemed to contemplate about it before she pulled out the old journal that had linked her cousins a few days prior.
It was a whole mess where she had practiced a spell on Riley and she had accidentally linked her to Bella, who then jumped off a cliff in a suicide attempt or something.
"Yes, but I can't promise that it won't sting" Athena winced at the idea of her cousin getting hurt, before gesturing for Riley to sit down on the bed. "Maybe you should call one of the dog boys and get them over here, preferably Jacob cause he also has a connection with Bella"
"Alright" Riley nodded slowly, before she started to go on her phone and ring someone, making Athena confused as she took out a few of the herbs she had brought along with her. "Jake, I need a favour that I need you not to tell anyone about"

Athena paved in front of Riley slowly, analysing everything on the two pages as she hadn't tried a 'spell' that complicated before, Riley had just been nibbling on her lip as she played with her fingers, Athena wasn't sure how well this was going to go but she hoped it wouldn't end up badly.
The window swung open for the second time that night and Athena glared at Jake and the other figure, "she told you not to tell anyone!"
"Paul, this is Athena" Jake ignored the girl as he introduced his 'brother' to the angry girl.
"Athena" Riley said softly, causing something to spread through Paul as he heard her voice. "It doesn't matter, we should get started"
Athena then nodded with determination before she glanced at the two boys, "I'll need you to hold her down"
"Hold her down?" Paul questioned gruffly, hating the idea of having to pin his imprint down.
"The process will hurt at the beginning" Athena quickly explained, before her eyes met Riley's, she worried for her cousins, both of them. "Don't fight it"
Riley nodded before she laid back on her bed upside down, giving the two shifters a look, which caused them to get on each side of her, holding her shoulders gently, Jake grabbed Riley's hand just in case.
"Oh God" Athena breathed out after she had dipped her hands in some herbs that represented the mind, leaning forward so her hands rested on the sides of her cousins head., before she started whispering soft words that didn't sound English at all, it was all memorised in her head so that she couldn't go wrong.
Riley whimpered immediately after Athena spoke, shortly in Paul and Jacob's hold, soon turning more irrational as she tried to break free from it all.
"Don't fight" Jake reminded the girl he had to shift his hold on, his eyes holding pain as he watched the girl whimpering and gasping next to him.
Riley suddenly started to scream, which made Paul placed his hand over her mouth so that she didn't wake her dad up, although he hated every second of it as his inner wolf seemed to be crying for her.
"Done" Athena announced tiredly, removing her hands and then gesturing for the boys to stand away from her, which they followed reluctantly. "I'm going to ask her what she sees, no matter what, don't touch her"
Athena then took another deep breathe and looked down at her cousin with sad eyes, vowing to remove the link afterwards.
"Riley, what can you see?"
"Cloaks, red cloaks" Riley chimed, her eyes shit as she lay on the bed, almost looking dead. "Bella saved Edward, they're walking somewhere—oh my God, they're eating that girl!"
"Calm down" Athena instructed, pacing her hand on Riley shoulders, and the girl freezes in response. "What happening?"
"There's a man, Aro, he's a...vampire" Riley states lowly, "He can tell Bella's human"
Jake tensed up on the other side of the room as he listened closely, Bella was with vampires, that they didn't have a treaty with, they could easily kill her.
Riley shifted her head slightly, uncomfortable with the scene as it continued to play, and she suddenly jumped at something. "He's laughing. He wants her to be a vampire, says she know too much....."
"Riley, what he saying?" Athena asked again, but it seemed like Riley was too far in, mumbling random words that she thought to herself.
"What's going on? Why isn't she answering?" The guy named Paul questioned Athena, he seemed to be really worried for Riley, making Athena's stress levels rise as well.
"She's there, not literally, but she can't hear or feel us" Athena states as she takes in her cousins mumbling body. "We'll have to take her out of it soon, but for now we need to her to grab the information that she requires"
