The Power of Three [Twilight/Charmed]

Part Two - Chapter Two: Garden Party

Looking up at the oddly warm sun, Amelia leaned back into Paul's arms and rested her head against his; they were at peace right now and for the brunette that was all that mattered to her. 

The wedding had gone off without a hitch and the couple were relieved that for now there wasn't a lot happening in Washington; the occasional demon was all the witches had dealt with since the battle of the newborns had happened. 

"We should do something," Seth said making Amelia look at him, they were currently enjoying a day at the beach with the pack and she had a feeling that the un-imprinted members didn't like watching the couples. 

"What do you suggest?" Jacob asked appearing behind Seth, who smiled up at him; it was clear to anyone who looked at Seth that he idolised Jacob. 

Leah looked at her younger brother as Aiden wrapped an arm around her shoulder; they watched him for a moment before shaking their heads amused knowing that Seth hadn't thought that far. 

"Maybe we should have a game of soccer," Sam suggested, he had been trying to make things right as of late with the members of the pack around him; Paul refused to forgive him for the attack on Amelia and Jacob wasn't sure if there was much Sam could do to make up for it. 

"Sounds like a plan," Jared said looking at Paul hopefully, he wanted things to go back to normal between the pack but with Paul, Leah and Embry still mad at Sam it didn't look like it was going to happen anytime soon. 

Amelia nudging Paul making him look at her, she had asked him to at least make an attempt with Sam; she hated that the friendship the two once had was gone because of what happened months ago.

Paul sighed nodding his head in agreement making Sam offer him a small smile, the original three members of the pack hadn't been the same since the fall out between Sam and Paul. 

Alicia smiled at her older sister as Amelia moved to sit next to her while the boys started up a game of soccer, the two talked quietly between themselves before they were joined by Kim, Leah and Emily. 

"So what's going on?" Emily asked making the two sisters look between one another, it had been a week since Bella and Edward had married and the last few days had seen the siblings acting a little out of shape. 

"It's nothing," Alicia insisted glancing over at her older brother, they had agreed to not say anything until they were sure that they knew what they were dealing with. 

Leah looked at the two sisters worried, she knew that they were holding something back and it worried her that it had something to do with their destiny. 

"It's not that," Amelia reassured looking at Leah, who stared at her for a moment as the brunette flashed her a smile before she excused herself and left the beach without another word.

"Are you sure you are okay?" Paul asked his imprint concerned making Amelia roll her eyes as she rubbed her temple; she had another headache and it worried her, what this meant. 

"I'm fine... it's just a headache," Amelia replied making Paul nod his head as they entered Jacob's house; the brunette batted her boyfriend's hand away and smiled at him. 

The couple greeted Billy, who seemed thrilled to see them; the council elder had welcomed the siblings to the tribe after they had started to help him find out more about the past and helped him better record it for future generations. 

"Amelia, it's nice to see you again," Billy greeted smiling up at Amelia, it was clear that she was his favourite of the siblings especially since she spent the most time with him. 

While her brother and sister had been looking through the history of the land and speaking with higher powers about the Quileute tribe; Amelia was the one who spent her time writing up the legends and stories for them to be passed on in a book. 

"It's nice to see you to Billy," Amelia said making Paul chuckle before he frowned spotting old Quil glaring at his imprint; the council elder hadn't warmed up to the siblings and it was clear that he never would.

Amelia laced her fingers in comfort with Paul's as old Quil approached them, in the last few months he had made it very clear that the witches weren't welcome in La Push; he wanted them gone. 

"Don't start Quil," Billy warned the older council member, he looked at Paul, who was drawing Amelia closer to him; it was clear that this wasn't going to end well. 

Old Quil stopped right in front of the trio; he pursed his lips as he looked at Paul and shook his head in disapproval. 

"You could have chosen a wonderful native girl... instead you choose to imprint on a pale face witch," old Quil spat disgusted making Amelia flinch while Paul snarled at him furiously, things hadn't been easy recently and old Quil wasn't making this easy. 

Billy frowned at the council elder, he had been considering asking him to step down and allow his son to take over; it was clear that it was getting to the point where he might drive off some of the pack. 

"Quil, leave it," Billy said making the older man frown as he looked at him, it was clear that there was going to be some trouble; old Quil wasn't upsetting members of the pack at every turn at it wasn't just those who were with the siblings. 

"If I had my way I would burn you at the stake," old Quil spat causing the room to fall silent, Amelia glared at him while her siblings stared shocked; it was a part of their family history that none of the siblings liked to think about.

"That is it Quil... we've warned you, the Matthews are our allies. You are stuck in the past and it's time that you stepped down from the council," Billy said glaring up at the older man from his wheelchair; Jacob moved towards his father while everyone stared in shock. 

The Black, Uley, Clearwater and Ateara families made up the main part of the council since they were the direct descendants of Taha Aki; however this couldn't continue anymore. 

"What?" old Quil asked looking at the leader of the council, Billy looked at the other gathered council members; Sam and Sue Clearwater, they had been talking about this for a while and it was clear that after today that he needed to step down. 

"We are asking you to step down from the council, you have repeatedly caused tension between the pack and your dated ways are preventing us from moving forward," Billy said as Sue moved to stand next to him, she nodded her head making old Quil glare at her; he disapproved of her budding relationship with Charlie Swan. 

Quil cuddled Claire close as his grandfather turned to look at him, it was clear that he was looking for support for his actions however he wasn't going to receive any; old Quil pursed his lips as he looked back at Billy. 

"Fine... I'll step down, but mark my words Black, you have doomed us all," old Quil seethed glaring at Amelia, he shook his head before he stormed out of the house leaving everyone in silence. 

Billy sighed disappointed that it had come to this; he had hoped that old Quil would have warmed to the siblings after the newborn battle and all they had done for the tribe but it was clear that he wasn't going to change at all.
