Seth ↔ Jesse ↔ Clearwater

→Seth was just about to panic and suggest something else, when Jacob-thank god for second in command wolves like him!-stepped in for him. With a bit of hesitation, the male shifted and agreed, following Jacob and Paul, who he walked beside until he was half way there and fell back to Sam and Emily's house. Of course, the three female wolves trailed along just behind him, making it look like a twisted game of 'follow the leader; look angry edition!' Stifling a laugh, he waited until they were all at the house to follow again.

→While walking, he watched Paul and Claire slip out the back door. Two of the girls were remarking on her appearance, which was adorable of course, until she had disappeared through the back door on Paul's back. Shrugging, Seth began to jog, coming to a stop before the pathway. Carefully, he stayed on the path, though he knew neither Sam nor Emily cared if he stepped onto the grass. Then he hopped up the two stairs to the deck, and watched as one of the girls spoke to his 'imprint-' it felt considerably odd to think of her that way-though he couldn't hear what she was saying.

→Just afterwards, she walked forward, and Seth could tell it was purposeful. At least one person wasn't opposing to what was going on. Grinning his usual boyish smile, he tapped on Sienna's (of course he remembered her name!) shoulder. "I'm sure they won't notice we're gone. Do you want to talk?" He said, his voice low. Low enough-he knew-so that no shapeshifter, puma or wolf alike, would be able to hear him, as none of them were near enough by. "I'm Seth by the way. Seth Clearwater."

▫◦▫◦Sienna listened to Laurie gently and when her friend said something about the boy and unlinked her arm, Sienna couldn't help but feel a wave of graditude and respect towards Laurie. 'Thank you!' Sienna mouthed towards her friend. She felt the tap on her shoulder and Sienna turned her head slightly, a grin on her face. "You don't know Beta. Nose like a cat, eyes like a hawk." she replied, her voice just as low. The grin was still on her face as she though over previous events when she had tried to keep secrets from Beta. It almost made her want to laugh, but Sienna held it in.

▫◦▫◦So Seth was his name, wasn't it? Seth Clearwater? She liked it. Sienna Clearwater. The girl's grin slowly curved into one of her signature catlike smirks. She really liked the sound of that. But somehow, she didn't know why. Why in the world would she? But Sienna had to admit, he was terribly adorable. He had a little bit of a baby face, but it was adorable! She held back an almost fangirl-like giggle and decided instead to blink.

▫◦▫◦Sienna blinked it off and moved back, finding herself just a little bit closer to Seth. Her steps were silent as she moved towards the doorway, which was barely even a half a tail length away if she had been in her lioness form. Sienna grinned. "And yeah. Talking instead of growling and hissing sounds good for once." she replied, a sweet smile on her face.

Yes, I bite

OOC//:Aww, you toook my place as first page post! T.T XD

"You missed the party. Princess theme. She made me wear a crown, and then Emily suggested they all try out her new play makeup on me."
◄……………………………………►

……►Claire smiled her cute little smile as she had gotten what she wanted. Paul was taking her outside to give her rides, and on the way out Claire had heard a girl that she didn't know comment on how cute she was. It was kind of weird to say, but Claire was used to being called cute. When you heard it enough, it was just a habit to think I know i'm cute. When they reached the outdoors, Claire's hair whipped into her face. It was kind of cold out, but not cold enough to get a jacket. Besides, Paul would keep her warm.

……►Claire bounced up and down at Paul walked around with Claire on his back. She wanted to play a game now, considering she was all riled up. "Wet's pway a game!" She squealed to Paul. Maybe they would play tag or hide and go seek. Either way, it was very fun playing with Paul... not just any wolfie, but Paul. He had always made it more fun than the others had. He had always made her giggle and laugh, besides Quil, who naturally done that. But Paul was the fun one in her mind. Sometimes even more fun than Quil, as he was always worried about her safety.

……►Claire picked a game--tag-- and slid off Paul's back. She loved how the wolfies were like slides considering they were so tall. Tag! Yoa it, Pawie!" Claire yelled, and then ran. Her legs were no match for Paul, but sometimes he pretended that he couldn't catch up with her. Claire started to scream and laugh, enjoying the little game of tag.

Jacob ◦ Stone ◦ Black

▬◦Jacob watched everybody else, as they were either talking to somebody, or not doing anything whatsoever. He heard the beta ask his name. "Name's Jacob,"He replied to the male, and then went to sit on the couch. Maybe he and the lion could talk or work something out. Jacob just needed something to do. Thinking that over, Jake compared himself to a three-year-old with a short attention span. He was just like one.

▬◦Roaming the house, Jake had noticed again that Emily was cooking grilled cheese. "Anybody want anything to eat?" He asked towards nobody in particularly. It was just kind of a random questions. While everybody was worried about their clan or pack, Jacob was sitting here worrying about food. But, he couldn't help it... that was the normal wolf shapeshifter. It happened a lot with Jake though, and usually Ness would just giggle at him.

▬◦Speaking of Renesmee, he wanted to go find her now, but knew that was not an option, as he had problems to deal with. Maybe after this was all over he would go and scoop her up in his arms and take her somewhere. He sometimes hated hanging around with the rest of the Cullens, especially the psycho blonde. She was just annoying and crazy. Snapping out of his thoughts, Jake sat down at the kitchen table and waited for somebody to come talk to him... or at least Emily to get done cooking.

►Beta Nicholas Anderson◄

~~Beta watched Sienna as she was talking with the boy. He tried his hardest to make it look like he wasn't paying attention or watching what she was doing. As long as she didn't leave this room with him then Beta was fine. He looked away from Sienna for a second and towards the female with the three scars across her face. He smiled and muttered softly to her "Whose kid was that?" He realized she probably didn't hear it and didn't bother asking again.

~~As much as he tried to stop it, he couldn't help but remember his youngest sister who he hasn't spoke with for years since Cara died. Tessa used to ask Beta all the time for horse back rides but only would take them if he was in lion form. He smiled thinking about Tessa when she was a little girl just like the one he just saw. Tessa was probably sitting at home watching TV or playing with their cat. He shook the thought away knowing his sister was probably never going to forgive him no matter what he did.

~~Beta looked over towards Sienna and the boy, Seth, as he heard the boys name from her thoughts. He rolled his eyes as the thought that Sienna was putting Seth's last name as hers. He shook his head and told her, "Don't you dare leave this room with him!" He wasn't in the mood to have another person mad at him for getting another clan member killed. Anna would never forgive him just like Tessa.

~~Beta walked over to Jacob and asked him, "So it looks like your friend Seth likes my friend Sienna. Did you say you had food, I'm starving? I was called here before I got the chance to eat."

Seth ↔ Jesse ↔ Clearwater

OOC: Guys, shifters can only hear each other's thoughts when they're shifted. Meaning, right now, considering everybody from the cat clan is in human form, they can't hear each other's thoughts.

→Seth grinned and chuckled lightly. "No kidding. It seemed Paul was all but unprepared for a good old showdown back there," he said, glancing from the corners of his eyes at their leader. He was staring at them, until he finally turned and whispered something to Emily, though with her human hearing, Seth figured she hadn't heard a word he said, and turned back to Sienna with a phony smile across his face.

→"We could go down to First Beach," he suggested. "The weather should be great there right about now." When he turned towards the leader, he realized that he was already starting a conversation with Jacob. His words were audible to Seth's sensitive hearing, and he couldn't help but smile. You have no idea, he thought to himself, then turned back to Sienna and put his hands in his jeans pockets.

→Then he realized the male had also asked for food. Good, distractions. That meant he might not even notice if he and Sienna slipped out. He didn't plan on anything important. All he needed to do was speak to her about imprint. Ask her if she had ever heard of the legend-and whether it was only in the Quilete legends then. It was obvious the imprint had gone both ways, for there had been automatic feelings. And they definitely needed to talk about it.

▫◦▫◦Sienna's eyes lit up completly when the word 'beach' came out of Seth's mouth. Her catlike smirk became a large grin. "Completly, utterly, and bloodily brilliant! I've been dying to get near some salt water." Sienna replied. She clasped her hands behind her back and she shifted her weight to her left leg. The sound of a beach had gotten Sienna excited. She loved salt water. Not so much swimming, as much as she just loved being in the water. It felt good, especially when she was in her lioness form.

▫◦▫◦It made a smirk play across Sienna's face as she thought about it. Weren't cats supposed to hate water? And weren't they supposed to loathe dogs? "Well, just looks like I'm breaking barrier after barrier today." she murmured beneath her breath. She looked across the room at Laurie through the corner of her eye, a gentle smile in her eyes. She definitly had to thank her friend later. Laurie seemed to be the only one who wasn't trying to wedge a wall between she and Seth.

▫◦▫◦Sienna inched a little bit more towards the door and reached out to take Seth's hand. The instant her finger's touched his skin, pricks of lightning flew through her fingertips right to the ends of her hair. And she could feel it. All of it. "Come on, before Beta or Anna start snapping." she whispered only so low enough so that Seth would be the only one to hear her. Sienna tugged him towards the door, her steps quiet.

Yes, I bite

Seth ↔ Jesse ↔ Clearwater

→A laugh rumbled from Seth when he heard her words. "Cats in water?" He asked, one eyebrow raised. He shook his head and looked down at their feet, still grinning. When he looked back up, he saw her glance back at her cat friend. He'd have to ask Sienna about her. Why didn't she care that they were together, when her other two clan mates seemed to be so insistent on tearing them away from each other every chance they got? Suddenly Seth was curious-like any other normal kid his age-but shrugged it off.

→Then, unexpectedly, Sienna gripped his hand in her own. His pulse doubled once, then went back to normal. He really had to get this under control. Luckily though, he didn't show any of it. This whole time, he had looked like a normal boy flirting with a girl who was off limits. When really it was more than that, and obviously the only people who could tell were Jacob, Paul most likely, and he was sure that Sienna's feline friend had a hunch about something, though he wasn't sure whether or not she knew.

→As they passed the doorframe, he kicked the door closed behind him, happy that everybody inside couldn't see them, and soon they wouldn't be within their earshot either. Smiling, Seth continued to walk, hand in hand with Sienna. Finally they reached the beach, and Seth stopped on the outskirts, where the sand just began to sprinkle, seeming to decorate the fading grass.

→There was no point in lying, so Seth just got right to the point with Sienna, knowing she deserved nothing less. "Does your tribe have any odd legends by chance? Things you might not believe in?" All of the sudden he felt slightly squirmy, but went on. "Have you ever heard of imprinting? It's kind of like love in first sight, only more rare and it can only happen with shapeshifters. Plus it's much, much stronger."

▫◦▫◦Sienna nodded as she heard Seth's respone. "And I'm the only graceful one out there." she replied, a half grin on her face. She followed Seth, somehow glad to be hand in hand with him. Sienna blinked as they got nearer and nearer. The sweet scent of salt water wafted up to her nose and she took in a deep breath. It was perfect! Sienna loved it. That was exactly why she was not fit to live in Arizona. California was a much better enviornment for Sienna. Lots of salt water to play in. She grinned and pulled a brown hair behind her ear with her spare hand.

▫◦▫◦Sienna looked at Seth through the corner of her eyes as she listened to him. "I think so...Our elders have talked about it before...Come on, you know this Naomi..." Sienna spoke softly to herself as she racked her brain. In truth, she really did know what she was talking about. But it escaped her. 'Damn memory of a five year old.... And in truth, Sienna did have the memory of a five year old. Anything that didn't involve chocolate and any other form of sweets, she forgot within twenty four seconds.

▫◦▫◦"The Forever Bond!" she exlaimed when she finally figured it out. Sienna turned half way to Seth and nodded. "The Forever Bond is what our elders call it. It's way stronger than love at first sight. It's more than a whim or a crush. It's an unspoken need to be with the person you've bonded with." Sienna replied. Why did it only come to her so late? Normally she would have gotten it sooner. She looked back over the water, suddenly aware of what Seth was thinking of. "Why do you ask?"

Yes, I bite

══►Anna watched as everything was going in motion. She eyed her sister cautiously when her sister tried to comfort her. She had no idea what to do. She eyed the wolves carefully and quietly wondered what she could do to get her sister out of here. She nodded with Berta and began pushing Sienna away from the wolf not wanting her little sister in danger. That was the last thing she ever wanted right now. They already lost one person she definitely didn't want to lose another.

══►Anna felt terrible for how sad Sienna looked after Beta commanded her to leave. She watched as the she cat became utterly depressed. What the hell was going on? She thought quietly to herself. Sienna never liked dogs. Even when they weren't shapeshifters. Why all of the sudden she met this boy and she falls in love? This was getting too weird. She growled at Beta when he agreed to go over to the wolves house and tried her best to be good.She went behind a tree and changed into her jeans shoes sadly and a tight shirt and hoodie. She never mind the extra weight and she was the fastest anyway.

══►Anna groaned silently to herself as they walked inside she saw the little girl and smiled. She was adorable. But she kept her eye on Sienna. She watched the boy making sure there was no funny business going on. And Sienna knew that Anna would be watching their every move. She did not trust these people because she did not know these people. She was that simple. Trust had to be earned not given freely. Both Sienna and Anna knew this from past experiences.

Emily ♥♥♥ Young

Beauty will always Love the Beast

✖✖✖Emily smiled and came from behind the kitchen after making many more grilled cheeses. She filled two plates with piles high. She smiled as Claire began going on her jolly way. She smiled and turned on the T.V. and went into her and Sam's Bedroom to talk to Leah. She wondered what was going on now? But she loved hearing about her cousin's day and everything. The only thing she didn't like was how depressed Leah had gotten after Sam and Emily had imprinted. She wished Leah would find someone so she could be happy again.

✖✖✖"So how's Life?" She asked her cousin gently as the door closed and what not. She smiled and listened to Leah's story about her job and smiled and laughed along with her. She never knew how crazy sue could get about milk. It could be hilarious at times at how frantic she could get. But they both stayed silent for a while when they thought about how she was after Harry had passed. They both sighed until they heard commotion in the living room. Emily heard Leah wonder what was going on and Emily shrugged and looked at her. "Let's find out." She said gently.

✖✖✖Emily then cautiously walked down the hall and went past the kitchen where she saw four new faces. She saw the look in Seth's and Sienna's eyes and the dangerous look the girl's sister apparently had not understanding the process. She smiled at Jacob. "Who are your friends Jake?" She asked him gently then she turned around and saw the look in Leah's eyes. She looked at the guy who was new here and smiled. By the Gods Leah Imprinted!

Leah▬Clearwater

▬Who's afraid of the big bad wolf?▬

◄◄►Leah smiled at Jake's smiled but her grin quickly faltered. "Cats?! You left my brother alone with new shapeshifters!" She scolded. But before she could continue Jake was already out the door running off to make sure nothing happened. She growled inside knowing the double meaning behind his words. Seth Imprinted. Great she was the only one now who basically hadn't imprinted. Leah sighed not wanting to get into it right now she just felt hurt. She wasn't able to have a life because these shapeshifter gene had sucked her in. She couldn't have the life she wanted even if she tried.

◄◄►Glad that Claire had let her go. Leah walked over into the kitchen to her cousin. She was pretty pissed at her cousin for a while before she figured out what was going on. In her mind though she was still pissed and hurt by Sam. He had basically broken her heart for her cousin. How worse could that get. She sighed though letting it go and smiled at her cousin. "Can we talk?" She asked her cousin Gently. She smiled as Emily went and turned on Cartoons for Claire and motion for them to talk. She smiled as Emily listened patiently to her day. "And then Sue started freaking because we didn't have her brand of milk." She said gently laughing with her cousin. But they both fell silent thinking about Harry and how she was after he died.

◄◄►Leah then heard noise in the living room and looked at the door like she wished she could see through it. Some of the voices were familiar others weren't. "What's going on?" She asked Emily as they both went towards the door. Emily shrugged and went outside to the living room. Reluctantly Leah followed her. She had her head down until she looked up and met a face she knew she would never forget ever again. She looked into his dark eyes and his brilliant face and knew exactly that he was absolutely gorgeous. She stared at him like he was the only important thing in her world. The only thing that she would ever die for. The only thing she wanted to live for. She looked at Beta with loving eyes and a serious gaze on her face.

►Beta Nicholas Anderson◄

~~Beta looked up from the table and noticed something he hadn't before. There was the most prettiest girl in the entire world. Something about her just made him want to protect her like all of the sudden someone was going to try and kill her. He smiled at her and noticed she was smiling back at him. Everything seemed to just melt away and watching everything else could be taken care of by someone else.

~~Beta shook this thought out of his head and looked around the room. Laurie was standing near Anna, but Seth and Sienna were gone. He swore quietly to himself and got up from the table without saying another word to Jacob. He walked over to Anna and commanded her, "Watch Sienna to make sure she's not in trouble. First sign of trouble come get me. He knew Anna would watch out for Sienna while he talked to the girl that was standing not too far away.

~~Beta turned around and looked into her sparkling eyes as he walked over to her. He smiled once more and asked her, "Hi I'm Beta, I don't think I've seen you before. What's your name?"  

[xXLilliaxMarieCullenXx]

Leah▬Clearwater

▬Who's afraid of the big bad wolf?▬

◄◄►Leah smiled as she kept her eyes glued on the guy in front of her. She couldn't stop smiling and staring at him. She felt her heart beat faster and a deep set blush became prominent on her cheeks. She ignored everything else but him. She felt like they were the only ones in the world. The only important things basically.

◄◄►Leah kept staring as he got up and looked away from her. He began talking to another girl and looked at him with a pained expression. Was she his girl? She shook her head when she heard what he had said to the girl. She felt happy again as she watched him. His dark eyes and muscled body made her smile even more. This guy was perfect in her eyes and she couldn't and didn't want him to leave her mind at all.

◄◄►Leah blushed as he walked up and introduced himself as Beta. She smiled and blushed a little. "Umm.. Hi I'm Leah." She said breathlessly. She couldn't figure out what was going on lately. She kept looking into his beautiful eyes and began to lose herself in them. She couldn't pull away her body wouldn't let her.

══► Anna watched as everyone commenced and what not. She saw two more women come back into the family room and sighed. She was kind of getting sick of the dog smell in here. She looked outside the window not even noticing what was going on. She was far away wishing they were back in safe phoenix. She missed the rest of their pack and knew that these wolves outnumbered them by far. She wished they had never come here. At least on these lands. She cursed the fact that Sienna let herself fall in love with these wolves.

══►Anna sighed painfully as she thought of her younger sister. the girl was only sixteen for god's sake! She is way too young to fall in love or to even know what love is. She let herself growl quietly in her chest. She kept trying to figure out what was going on around here. The last thing she wanted was Her sister to get pregnant or something or even ambushed by the wolfs buddies. She knew she couldn't keep Sienna sheltered forever though. She wished she could though, she wished their parents were here to tell her what to do. She was the only one who really saw her parents murdered by vampires. She had kept the coffins shut when they needed buried, She had raised Sienna then since. at times she truly felt like Sienna's mother though.

══►Anna smiled as Beta came up to her. She had hoped he was wanting to leave. But was shocked when she saw he had a weird gaze in his eyes like Sienna didn't. What the hell was going on?! Did these wolves know hypnosis? She nodded at Beta and then ran out the door. She quickly donned her hood on and ran to the beach. She came through the woods and about freaked at what she saw. "Sienna! What the hell are you doing!" She screamed running over to her sister. She pulled her sisters hand out of Seth's and growled. She pushed Sienna away and grumbled. "I leave you alone with him for a couple seconds and you are holding hands with this mutt? How do we know we can trust him? He could be tricking us." She didn't even wait for Sienna to fight back. "Sienna Home now!" She yelled. She was just under command of Beta. and she knew Sienna would listen. "Say good bye to the pup and we go home." She ordered. She crossed her arms as she waited for Sienna to say goodbye.
