"I still think Chase William Suno is going to phase" Paul said as the packs and imprints gathered at Sam and Emily's place for a meeting. "But there's no record of a Suno bloodline in the tribe" Jared frowned. "Actually, there is a Suno bloodline in the tribe" Sam countered and they all looked at him before he nodded to Bella. "David Suno was the youngest of Ephraim Black's sons. But he went missing shortly after he was born; then was found alive and taken in by a woman named Tessa Suno; who raised him as her own after failing to find his birth parents: Jeredy is his son and Chase is his grandson. Ephraim passed the wolf gene to David; who passed it to Jeredy and it lay dormant in his DNA because there were no vampires around at the time; with Jeredy eventually passing it on to Chase" Bella told them. "We need to watch him" Sam noted. "He'll be passing through the mountains, near the river, with his parents later this week. On Wednesday, at 12:30pm" Alice cut in. "Jared; you, Jacob and Quil will take that section of the Olympic Mountain Range on Wednesday; from 11:30pm to 13:30pm. Keep an eye out for Chase and his parents" Bella told them: they all nodded in agreement ....
Chase was walking along a path in the mountains outside Forks, at exactly 12:30pm that Wednesday, his parents following him silently when the frozen rock gave way; with Sophia starting to fall and catching her by the hand just in time; Chase pulled her back up to place her on the path. An avalanche raced toward them from above; heading straight for Jeredy and Chase quickly shoved his father out of the way; but he wasn't so lucky. Swept down the mountainside; Chase slammed into multiple ledges and as he was unconscious by the time he hit the water; he therefore disappeared swiftly beneath the surface. "Chase!" Sophia cried out in horror, as Jeredy noticed a copper – skinned man standing on a path running along the opposite peak, only higher up. He had cropped black hair; dark brown eyes and a jet black tattoo on his right shoulder; depicting two wolves howling with the pattern forming the face of a third wolf inside a black ring. He was tall; averaging 6.0ft in height and he had enough muscle to rival Trey while he was naked from the waist up in spite of the frigid cold; wearing only a pair of faded blue, cut – off denim shorts with matching white takkies: a second man soon appeared beside him. He was unusually tall; while the muscles of his chest and back were rather sharply defined; which was saying a lot. His hair was clipped short with the fringe cut away; his eyes nearly jet black and his skin was also copper; indicating they were both native Americans. He too was naked from the waist up in spite of the frigid cold; wearing faded blue, cut – off denim shorts and he had the same tattoo on his right shoulder as the other man; while his feet were bare. Stepping forward cautiously; he said something and his companion pointed at the water while speaking urgently; the second man's eyes narrowing as he glanced at the couple. Pausing; he backed up two paces and running forward swiftly; he threw himself off the path. "Did he just –?" Sophia was stunned, as the stranger hit the water hands first, disappearing swiftly beneath the surface. As they watched; the man suddenly surfaced again and seeing he had Chase with him; they watched as he dragged their son to the opposite bank where the first man waited with a third. The two on the bank relieved their friend of his burden; carefully pulling Chase out of the water and their companion climbed out after him; water rising from his torso as steam.
Picking Chase up; Jacob carried the twenty – year – old away and Jared followed silently with Quil; the trio disappearing into the fog.
One week later .... Leaning back in the front passenger seat of Jacob Ephraim Black's Volkswagen Rabbit; Chase looked around as they pulled up outside Samuel Uley's place and getting out of the car; they started up the driveway: Chase stopped dead only halfway to the house. "Chase?" Jacob looked at him in evident confusion; then saw Edward sitting on the front porch and seeing Chase had started trembling; Jacob immediately understood.
The stranger was fairly tall; with a slender, muscular build and pale skin that was almost completely white; while his bronze hair matched his amber eyes. He had a black band on one wrist; with a crest comprised of a lion and three separate, four – leaf clovers; the lion's eye, along with each of the clovers, holding a tiny white diamond. He wore a light gray t – shirt; with a matching pair of blue jeans and Chase could see his phone was in his back pocket; along with what looked like a set of car keys. Suddenly hearing a ripping noise; Chase looked down and seeing that his hands had become paws; he jumped back with a yelp of alarm. Lifting his head; he focused on the stranger and feeling a sudden impulse to attack him; Chase lunged with bared fangs. STOP! a female voice commanded sharply. Chase immediately froze; as a colossal, chocolate – eyed, dark brown female wolf with white flecks in her fur emerged from the forest and placed herself between them both; as if she were protecting the stranger. Who are you? Chase asked. I'm Bella Swan the voice replied and tensing at this; Chase suddenly saw himself through Bella's eyes. He was a colossal, raven black male wolf; while he still had those familiar, neon green eyes and he saw his entire frame was enormous; his shoulders thick with muscle. He had a patch of white fur on his chest; which was shaped into the Core – Tech insignia and he still wore his mother's pendant around his neck; the patch of white fur on his chest complimenting his green eyes.
