Layla's P.O.V
Izzy has fit in my pack like a glove, still really haven't met the other newbies. I train with my pack and sometimes train with the Cullens. My pack helps each other get strong, while the Cullens teach me control. I still have the strength of a 'new born' vampire which can be scary at times because I forget and have almost broke Seth's back, litterally.
Seth and I still love each other deeply. God I love him. But I feel so bad for him. He couldn't have imprinted on a simple girl. Instead, he's here with my pack, preparing for war. That's another thing, this war with the volturi is insane! People will die all because I don't want to be used as a weapon and kill people. But if we go to war, it's no different. Part of me would rather kill myself or piss off Sam to kill be but that's the easy way out, that's the coward way out. And I'm not a coward anymore.
"Layla? Are you even listening?" Edward asked, waving his hand in my face. I snapped out of my train of thought and looked up at his worried face because he was probably reading my thoughts.
"Sorry, I was just thinking about something." I looked down at the groud and up at the tall trees to avoid eye contact.
"Yeah I know what you were thinking about. Layla, stop making yourself feel like you're not worth it. The people who want to fight for you are fighting for a reason."
"They shouldn't have to die for me Ed. People will die, you realize that right?" I looked up at him, "I don't have time for this Edward, I have a war to prepare for so are you going to help me or not?" He nodded his head.
"Jasper and Emmett are going to help me teach you combat." I looked behind him to see them both walking towards us.
"But I already know combat from training with the pack."
"Yes but not as a vampire. You need to be able to channel it and use your speed and strength if you don't have time to shift." Jasper pointed out.
"Plus with you having the strength of a new born will help you majorly!" Emmett added smiling that wicked smile.
"Now Layla, the way to kill a vampire is to rip their head and... burn the remains." Jasper said, walking closer to me. I looked at him disgusted.
"Why? Is that really necessary?!"
"Yes." Edward answered.
"Why?!"
"Because, they can still move and function and try to... put themselves back together again." Jasper added.
"Oh God! Okay got it, rip heads and flame them up, Check."
"This is serious matter Layla." Edward said looking at me upset.
"Does it look like I'm laughing?" Emmett shook his head at my remark.
"Okay now, let's teach you the basics." Jasper said evancing towards me.

I plopped down on the couch and threw my head back.
"How's vamp camp Layla?" Paul asked looking away from the TV.
"Ha! cute Paul, very cute." I said sarcastically.
Seth walked in fresh from a shower and sat next to me on the couch. He looked at me and patted his lap making me giggle.
"Aye! Leave room for Jesus!" Paul yelled as I hopped on Seth lap.
"Shut up Paul!" Seth said as he laughed at him.
"Whatever." Paul sassed and faced the TV again.
