Cleo Uley: Twilight

Training/Planning

Cleo's POV

We're on our way to train with the Cullens, in our wolf forms. Sam doesn't trust them to reveal our human forms. Even though they'd seen over half the pack in human form. Anyway as we neared the clearing we heard them already training. Until Edward announced our arrival and they stopped to face us. Emmett and Paul were eyeing each other off, both wanting a rematch.

"They don't trust us enough to be in their human forms" Edward stated.

"They came. That's what matters" Carlisle tells him. Bella looks at Jake saying his name and he gives her a doggy smile. Before Sam got him to focus again on why we're here. "Will you translate?" Carlisle asks Edward and he nods. "Jasper has experience with newborns. He'll teach us how to defeat them" Carlisle tells us.

'How do newborns differ from you?' Sam asks in his head.

"They want to know how the 'newborns' is differ from us" Edward translates.

"They're a great deal stronger than us, because their own human blood lingers in their tissues. Our kind is never more physically powerful... ... than in our first several months of this life" Carlisle explains. Then Jasper steps forward to continue.

"Carlisle's right. That's why they are created. A newborn army, doesn't need thousands like a human army. And no human army could stand against them. The two most important things to remember are, first... Never let them get their arms around you. They'll crush you instantly. The second... Never go for the obvious kill. They'll be expecting that. And you will lose" he explains. "Emmett? Don't hold back" he tells him.

"Not in my nature" Emmett says smirking. Emmett charges Jasper with impossible speed, but Jasper is a virtual BLUR. Emmett lunges several times, his strong arms grabbing at air. Jasper stops long enough to say 'Never lose focus. One more thing... Never turn your back on your enemy'. Emmett lunges again with similar results, until suddenly he FREEZES – Jasper has him from behind, his teeth an inch from Emmettt's throat.

'He is good' I say and the others rumble their agreement. The Cullens take turns sparring with Jasper, or pairing off against each other. Alice and Jasper spar, spiraling, twisting. Jasper launches at her but with her eyes GLAZED OVER, not looking at him, she sees his moves before he makes them. Out of nowhere, Alice is perched on his back; she kisses his neck.

"Gotcha" she says smiling and I awe in my head. Sam gave me a stern look and I shook my head focusing again. Edward and Carlisle attack one another, but Edward can read Carlisle's mind which gives him the advantage. He twirls beyond Carlisle's grasp, then SLAMS into him delivering a vicious body blow. Jacob took this opportunity to go stand by Bella and I roll my eyes at him. The rest of us itching to join the training and he just wanted to stand by Bella.

"Focus on speed, agility, keep your opponent off guard. Use their momentum against them" Jasper tells us. I see Jake getting a pet from Bella and resist the urge to growl. We're wolves, not puppies. Training continued for ten more minutes before it ended. We leave the clearing and return to our territory.

"So Jacob, Jared, Cleo and I have come up with a plan for the battle. While talking to Jasper and Carlisle" Sam states. "Bella won't be near the battle field, her father will already be away on a fishing trip during the fight. But Edward will be with Bella and it was decided one of us should be with them during the fight. Jacob will be with them the night before, but then Seth will take over in the morning" he explains.

"No why my brother is being left alone with a leech" Leah growls.

"There is no discussion Leah, this is my decision" Sam reminds her. "Besides Cleo will be on standby if he needs help. As she is the fastest and can get there the quickest if he needs help. The rest of us will be hidden until the army arrives then attack them from behind. If a Cullen or pack member is in trouble. Help them if you can or alert someone who can" he instructs.

"Is a location set yet for Bella and Edward?" I ask him.

"Not yet, but when it is. You, Jacob and Seth will be told" he assures us. "Those on patrol go now, others train or rest up for the battle in three days" he tells us. I go on patrol with Paul and Jared. While the others do as Sam suggested.
