The Phantom Wolf

Chapter 95 (Rekindled Friendship)

*Pearl's POV*

We made our way over to play the carnival game. It seemed like we had to knock down some stacked up metal cups to win a prize. Since Renesmee wouldn't have the best control over her strength, it was up to me and Leah to play the game. So I placed Renesmee down on her feet and we both paid the guy running the stall. Each of us were given 3 balls and told to knock down our stacked up cups within 3 tries. All of the cups had to be knocked over for us to win.

I threw my first ball perfectly after taking a moment to control my own strength. It ended up knocking down my stack on my first try. But when I looked to my left, I saw Leah already being handed the wolf plushie that Ren had wanted.

She took advantage of the time I used to collect myself!

"Thank you Leah!" Renesmee smiled brightly at my smirking sister.

"You're welcome kid." She said, while giving me a smug look.

Picking up my other two balls I had been given, I tossed them towards the two other stacks of metal cups that were further down the stall, and toppled both of them over at once.

Leah raised her eyebrow at me, clearly unimpressed by my display.

I saw the staff member approach me from the corner of my eye, so I tore my gaze off of my annoying older sister and faced him instead. He flinched when I looked at him with my cold stare. Good to know I can still have that affect on people.

"What... prizes would you like... ma'am?" He stuttered out nervously.

Glancing over at the plushies, I gestured towards the three panda plushies in the corner. One of them was sticking its tongue out and was in a rolled up position, the second one was standing up holding bamboo in its two front paws, and the other one was sitting down while hugging a red heart. Bree likes pandas, so I'll get those for her. "I'll take those three thanks." I answered rather coldly.

He immediately retrieved them and hastily handed them over to me. I placed the plushies into my rucksack and we moved away from the game stall to allow others to play.

As we walked, Renesmee excitedly asked while holding her new wolf toy, "Can we go and win more stuff?"

"I don't see why not. As long as Pearl's not gonna fumble that is." Leah casually replied.

'Okay, it's on. Challenge accepted Leah. By the end of the day, I will have won more stuff than you.'

"I did not fumble, Leah. And sure Ren. Let's go and find more games to play." I said, Renesmee grabbed my hand and nodded frantically. Her head turned to look at a few other games, and before I knew it, she had started dragging me towards one.

*3rd Person POV*

Pearl and Leah spent the next 50 minutes trying to one up each other and win more prizes than their counter part. Renesmee was able to join in on a few games, but she mostly just sat on the sidelines and watched the two sisters compete with each other. She was quite happy to do so, as with each game the sisters played, the more prizes they won, and each time, without fail, all of their new prizes would be given to the little hybrid.

By the time Jacob and Seth found the girls, Renesmee was surrounded by a massive pile of different prizes, and she was holding onto the wolf plushie that Leah had won for her at the beginning of the competition. Pearl and Leah were playing a ring toss game a couple of metres away, and only briefly acknowledged the two boys when they made an appearance.

The boys joined the giddy little hybrid to watch the other two play the challenging game. It was fairly quiet in the area that they were in. Hardly any humans around, aside from the staff members on the surrounding stalls.
