Cross My Heart And Hope To Die

The Swans are in danger

Ade has his hands full. Taking care of Dana. Though ahe barely eats and she must, she has another human in her belly. She shouldn't be selfish now.

"Are you going somewhere?" Dana asks while seated at the breakfast table.

"Uhm I'm off to the reservation. Why? Do you need anything?"

"I don't like you going there. It kinda smells." It must be a pregnancy thing. They say pregnant women are sensitive to smell.

He thinks before deciding to stay. Surely Dana needs his support right now. They might not be in best terms.

And the days had past where even Ade hasn't been out in the sun for a while. Surprisingly Leah pays him a visit. Dana isn't a bit interested in her, and something with Leah that just makes her eyes look more aggressive than usual.

"We can talk here" outside he meant. Leah raises a brow.

"We wanted to offer our help, well Sam atleast, I'm just a messenger here." Leah shrugs it off as if she wasn't the one who suggested to go to the Swans.

"That's kinda sweet-" Ade was piahed back by Alice who is in a protective stance facing Leah. And Rosalie rushes upstairs with Edward to check Bella. But everyone is completely safe.

"What the hell Alice?" Ade stands up and calms her down.

"I saw, I saw a swan dying." She insist that her intentions were just. "And I don't trust dogs."

"Well that says a lot about you doesnt it?" Leah provokes her more but Ade stands in between. They see Bella completely safe clutched on Edward's arm. Dana wasn't sure about the commotion but joins them anyway.

"How many vampires are out there? How many newborns are out there? I'm sure we can do the math here." Ade talks as if he knows anything about this.

"Its not that simple. Newborns, despite just being bitten, they are at their strongest form." Edward doesnt like how Ade boldy underestimate the vampires.

"How do we make it in human terms for this one?" Jasper stiffly thinks of a simpler analogy. "Lets say, a toddlers grip is tighter."

"Well explained." Alice said looking lovingly at Jasper's eyes.

"Then lets get Uley's pack. They did offer help." Ade seems to be convinced.

"Whoa. Easy there. I am not gonna be in the same space as those dogs." Everyone objected.

"I've seen them work. I know you guys are family or whatever, but the pack. They are a literal unit. Put a feral out in the open and see how many casualties it can do."

"None if the dog gets bitten."

"Then teach it how to not get bitten."

"And then what? They use it against us afterwards?" Rosalie crosses her arm.

Ade looks at Leah who was still in the room with them. She wasn't even begging for the vampires to let them help. Observing them was chaos enough. It was kinda embarassing.

"I'll take responsibility. Kill me if they harm you."

"That's brave but dangerous. You're waging a war already. If they kill you, they break the treaty." Leah lashes with sass directing this statement at Rosalie who is across the room from her.

"I'm sure we can put everything aside to protect not just ourselves but the humans in Forks." Edward is right. This isn't a time to be divided.

"I'll talk to Sam." Leah leaves the Swan residence.

Ade and Bella is the mediator between the vampires and the werewolves. It wasn't an easy task as the two groups want to kill each other.
