High Tide

Physical or Emotional

What the hell was Edward talking about? Was something wrong? Of course, something was wrong. That's why he was acting so weird today. But, Nessie. . .What if something happened to my dad? Or the Pack? I tried to listen but it was silent. All I heard and saw were the creatures and the forest as it blurred past me. It was silent; no one was in wolf form. Was that part of the reason why Edward had shoved me away today? What if something happened to Sam or Emily or Seth? Edward cared about Seth... maybe something happened to him. I let out a cry and tried to push my legs faster, but they wouldn't push me any faster. Something had to of happened to Seth. Although Edward and Seth didn't hang out much, Edward still liked him. Edward and Seth once used to have a friendship. Edward liked Seth the best out of the pack. He said Seth had one of the purest and sincerest minds he'd ever heard. Sadly, that wasn't enough to keep them as friends. They slowly started to lose touch a few years back.

Seth used to come with me down to the Cullens all the time, in the beginning. But after a while, both of the friends realized they didn't have much to talk about besides sports. Seth gradually came less and less when most of the Cullens left. Edward might have gone down to visit Seth on the res, but he never did come down, due to the treaty of our ancestors. It really was a shame they lost contact, Seth was a good person and Edward was...they were both decent people.

Seth was like my little brother, I couldn't bare it if he was hurt. The entire pack couldn't bare it, whether it was physically or mental pain. If it was mental pain we couldn't do anything to help, but if it was physical pain we could try. If only Carlisle hadn't left. I know Carlisle and his family, with the exception of Bella, Edward, and Nessie, moved away because Carlisle didn't look old enough to claim his age. In fact he didn't look old enough to have kids in college; he could pass as a kid in med school trying to get his degree. It shouldn't have surprised me that they left. But when the whole Cullen clan was here it felt safer. The wolves had the Cullens' backs and they had ours despite the proclivity to do the opposite. If they stayed the secret to their existence might be exposed. So naturally, they all moved somewhere far away The Cullens had to keep up with their cover story continuously.

Man, if only they were here right now. Carlisle would be able to fix Seth if he was broken in any physical way. Another howl escaped my mouth.

I tried to calm myself down and thought about Nessie. But I couldn't help but think about Seth. The last time Seth saw her was at her sixth birthday party. It had been two months since then. I remember him saying "Wow the years have flown by bro. One more year and she'll be all grown up, like us." Nessie, grown up, I couldn't imagine that. It seemed like she was a little tot days ago, as opposed to years ago. She was growing up fast and I was not ready. Another thing I was not ready for was for the rest of the Cullens leaving. Bella and Edward hadn't left with the rest of Cullens because they wanted Renesmee to finish growing before they moved. Their departure date was closely approaching, would they really move away? Could they do that to me? I would follow them to the ends of the Earth, if they tried to leave with my little Lochness monster. In the beginning, I knew Edward and Bella hated the idea the idea of my imprinting on Nessie, but I thought they had moved past that. Couldn't they see that I had no choice? It just happened. Whatever they decided to do, when she was turned seven, wouldn't matter because I would follow her wherever she went.

I was almost to the house; I could hear people talking in the distance. There were a lot of voices. I guessed that the whole tribal council was there along with the rest of my pack brothers.

Jake?

Qui?. What's wrong catch me up on the situation.

Well I just wanted to make sure you were on your way over. When I heard the howling I wasn't sure what you were up to.
