It has been a couple weeks and Eleanor has never felt better. She has been hanging out with both Paul and Emmett, of course not at the same time. Over the weeks she even grew closer to all of the Cullen's, even Rosalie. She was glad she came to Folks. She never would have thought she would have met so many amazing people. 

"El!" Bella yelled as she busted into the attic. "Is this okay to wear for graduation?" Bella was holding up a blue shirt with a pair of jeans. Eleanor nodded. 

"Yes. Your gown will be hiding it. Plus it's you. I don't see you wearing a dress." Eleanor said laughing. "Now hurry up. We don't want to be late!" Bella nodded as she left the room. Eleanor turned around and got back to getting ready. She was excited to finally see her childhood best friend graduate.

"When we were five they asked us what we wanted to be when we grew up. Our answers were things like astronaut, president, or in my case, a princess." Jessica Stanley said as she gave her speech. Eleanor sat next to Charlie as they watched. Eleanor could see Bella sitting next to Edward. "When we were ten, they asked again, and we answered rock star, cowboy, or in my case a gold medalist. But now that we've grown up, they want a serious answer. Well how about this. Who the hell knows?" The audnice started cheering. Eleanor couldnt help but laugh knowing exactly what Jessica was saying. She was in college and had no idea what she wanted to do with her life. She has thought about medical school but also thought about being a history teacher. Her ideas were all over the place. "This isn't the time to make hard and fast decisions, this is the time to make mistakes. Take the wrong train and get stuck somewhere. Fall in love, a lot. Major in philosophy, because there's no way to make a career out of that. Change your mind, and change it again, because nothing is permanent. So make as many mistakes as you can. That way someday, when they ask you want we wanna be we won't have to guess. We'll know."

"Bella!" Eleanor yelled when she saw Bella waiting for her and Charlie. "You did it! Congrats!" She yelled as she pulled Bella into a big hug. Bella laughed at her. 

"Thanks El. It means a lot to me that you came." 

"Of course. I wouldn't have missed it for the world." Eleanor said smiling at Bella. Charlie walked up behind the two girls. 

"Congratulations Bells." He said as he pulled Bella into a hug. 

"Thanks." She mumbled. 

"So are you two girls going to the Cullen's for a part?" Charlie asked them. 

"Uh yeah. Alice said I couldn't miss it." Charlie turned to Eleanor. 

"Are you going?" Eleanor shrugged. 

"I dont know. Emmett won't be there. He's still at college." Eleanor said looking at Bella knowing really where Emmett was. "I wasn't thinking about it I may stay back and just finish up some work. I have a lot to do since I am doing summer school this year." Bella turned to Eleanor. 

"Please! You have to come. If I have to go so do you. Alice would be upset if you didn't go." Eleanor sighed. She knew Bella was right. She wouldn't hear the end of it from Alice if she didn't go. 

"Okay fine but I need to change first." Bella smiled at Eleanor and pulled her along. Chalire watched the two girls with a smile on his face. He was happy that the two of them were happy.

Eleanor was standing in the Cullen's house, watching all the people around her. She stood in a corner not really feeling in the mood to party. She saw out of the corner of her eye, Jacob and his friends walk in. She was actually surprised to see them there. Since she learned about vampires and werewolves, also know as shifters, she learned that they had a treaty. They made a line in which neither could cross and right now Jacob and his friends were not listening to the treaty. 

"Jacob what are you doing here?" Eleanor said as she walked up to the three boys. 

"Bella invited us." Jacob said smiling at her. 

"Isn't Sam going to be mad?" She asked him. 

"I don't care. Bella wanted me here so here I am." Jacob said. After Eleanor had found out about the Cullens being vampires, Bella had filled her in on everything. Bella told her everything from meeting Edward, getting hunted by a vampire named James. Bella also told her what happened at her birthday party Alice threw, which caused the Cullen's to leave causing Bella heartbreak. When Edward left she explained that she got closer to Jacob. Eleanor felt bad because she knew, as Bella told her the story, that Jacob loved Bella. Jacob never hid his dislike for Edward. He wanted it to be him that Bella wanted not Edward. So of course when Jacob walked in, Eleanor wouldn't be surprised if a fight broke out. She just hoped that if it did happen, it wouldn't be around the kids from Bella's graduating class. 

"Edward! I'm positive it's her. She's coming after me!" Jacob and Eleanor heard Bella yell. The two of them looked at each other and walked over to where they heard Bella's voice come from.  

"Bella, what's going on?" Jacob said as they walked up to her. 

"Jake, it's nothing." Bella said. 

"What are you doing here?" Edward asked Jacob, clearly upset that he was here. 

"Bella invited us." Jacob said smirking. "Now what's going on?" 

"Bella is in danger." Alice said. Bella glared at her. 

"Alice! No I'm not!" 

"Alice what do you mean?" Eleanor asked, concurred for her friend. 

"Bella thinks Victoria is coming after her. That she was the creator of the new born army in Seattle." Eleanor thought about what Alice had just told her. It made sense to her. That the newborns were made so close to Folks and that there was a nomad who went into Bella's room and stole her red sweatshirt. 

"It makes sense." Eleanor told the group. "Bella's jacket was stolen. The nomad stole it to pass her scent around. Maybe Victoria created them for a distraction. Plus Paul said that they saw Victoria a couple of days ago." Everyone thought for a second. What Eleanor had said was right. 

"So we fight." Jasper said. "If the newborns come here, Bella is not the only one in danger. Everyone is. And Eleanor may not be safe either. Her scent was in Bella's house. They may have caught it too." Eleanors heart sank hearing Jasper talk. She never thought about that. The nomad could have gotten her scent too. She wasn't safe. 

"The pack will fight with you." 

"Jake no!" Bella yelled. "You can't get hurt because of me." 

"Bella, this isn't about you. Like the le-" Eleanor gave Jake a look. "Sorry, Jasper said. Everyone is in danger if they come here." 

"You'll need to train. Newborns are different then regular vampires. They are stronger and faster. It'll be a hard fight because of how many newborns they have." 

"Name a time and place. The pack will be there." Jacob said. Eleanor would be lying if she said she wasn't scared. She was scared for Bella. She was scared for Paul. She was scared for Emmett. She was scared for all of her friends. She knew a war was coming. She just hoped that she didn't lose any of her friends.
