Seth watched with eagerness listening to the conversation. It was like listening to a one sided phone call, since he couldn't hear what Sam was saying. ~ML~ I got your flank if you need Jacob.
After a look from Jake he zipped his mouth, watching his sister trot up standing tall, he let out a mental giggle at her display. She bared her teeth and he shook his head. Seth thought to himself, why would they want another treaty in place, the Cullens' were their friends.

~ML~ the terms of the last treaty were compromised when Edward turned Bella a new treaty needs to be set in place. So here are the terms as far as anything goes not I nor my pack have an alliance with the Cullens nor will we side with them unless the situation affects us directly. Secondly on the terms of turning a human as long as both sides are in agreeance to the circumstances however it will not be done on or near La Push. Which brings me to the next term. La Push is still off limits from the Cullens unless permission is granted by me. Rouge Vamps will be removed from area with force and disposed of unless the Cullens or you take personal resposibility
He stood all the while not being able to help the fact that he glanced over Jake's should at Leah a few times. Before looking back at Jake
~ML~ those are the terms you have a problem with them?

-As Jake listened to Sam, he couldn't help but get slightly pissed off! Did he think he was the only Alpha? Asserting himself in this mannor. Jakes own Alpha was rising, the need to stamp his mark on rules overwhelming.-
~ML~ You might just want to back own on your athority Sam! i have no loyalty to you now, so i don't except to be spoken to like that! Now as for the treaty, i want the circumstances of changing humans seriously considered by ALL! that means Cullens do have a say. They are involved in this treaty they need to also be in on this. I also will be in and out of La push, my family live there. Being the true desendant from Ephriam Black, i will not be pushed aside! I will speak with the Cullens as it stands we are clear on the treaty.
-As Sam and Jake nodded at each other in understanding they both turned to their pack. Looking to Leah and Seth, Leah was almost in a trance. Still standing tall, Jacob gently nudged her.-
~Ml~ We head to the Cullens now, they need to know this and agree to it.
-Running to the Cullens Leah on his left, and Seth his right. They hadn't got far into patrol so they wasn't all that far to run. With Leah's thoughts constantly on Sam, Jake tried to cloud them with his own thoughts. Sam had some nerve coming into his boundry, telling Jake all the treaty rules. "We have no alliance with the Cullens, rouge Vamp's will be destroyed!" Yeah and who took the dread lock dude out! stopping at the Cullens, Edward was already at the door nodding. Damn Vamp can't keep your thoughts to yourself without, someone scanning in on them!-

Edward chuckled as Nessie had pounced from behind a large weeping Willow, from hiding behind the draping branches as the leaves had hidden her from sight. She had become such an expert in such a short space of time for these kind of skills. It astounded him as she reminded him so much of Bella in her first day as a newborn.
He chuckled as Bella had swept down to pick her up into her arms and cradle her tightly to her chest, Renesmee letting out a high picked laugh that filled the silent forest around them. Not a sound to be heard apart from the sound of his two angels as they sealed their mother-daughter bond to an end that could never be broken.
Bella had caught him gazing at her as Nessie climbed onto her shoulders, Bella stumbling to gain her balance, it brought back the memory of her troubles as a human with her balance. Now was a thing of the past, but something he would always remember.
"Edward.....Edward?"
Her soft melodic voice brought him out of his train of thought as he smiled at her.
"Sorry....I was....*he chuckled* Never mind"
She also smiled at him that would melt his heart, Nessie continued to bounce on her shoulders as they came into the sight of their previous home.
As they began to ascend the steps to the front door, Edward picked up Jacob's voice echoing through to his ears. He stopped to face the direction that he could hear his voice echoing through the trees. Bella took a step towards him, her voice full of concern.
"What's wrong?"
"Its Jacob....He needs to talk with us"
Edward turned to meet her gaze, her face displaying confusing and concern.
"Its the Pack....They are coming"

Bella nodded as the rest of the family came out to see why they hadn't come in. Her eyes scanned the trees awaiting the wolves to descend. Soon, she saw Jake in his russet brown wolf form heading towards them, Seth and Leah at his flanks. Edward nodded and looked into the forest again. Bella's eyes followed his. What was going on? Had something happened?
"They want to discuss reassessing the treaty, Sam's idea. His pack is coming." Edward whispered into her ear. She nodded. Of coarse...she understood, he had a job to do.
Soon the wolves from Sam's pack emerged from the forest, Sam stood in front in his wolf form. A midnight black coat, Jared and Paul at his flanks and the rest behind him. Bella held Renesmee back from running to Jake, knowing this was business.
Edward spoke coolly and calmly as she and the rest of the family observed. "What is it that you wish to discuss?"

~ML~ We're here to discuss the treaty. a NEW treaty seeing as how the other one is void
at that his eyes moved to bella's momentarily before glancing back over his shoulder at Paul who always had something to say. Sam growled a warning his way then brought his attention back to to others.

-Looking to Sam and Edward-
~ML~ I believe me and Sam have come to a agreement, but i suggested you all to hear it. I believe it affects all of us wether we all get along or not. -Growls at Paul as he snorts, ignoring Sam's stare- This treaty was made with Ephriam and Carsile. I believe Carsile would appricate being presant in the new one.

Edward gave Sam a nod and then Jacob. Bella stood silently, listening to an unspoken conversation. She wished she could hear what was going on. Then Edward turned to tell the family what was happening.
"Jacob and Sam would like to re-establish a treaty with us and asks that Carlisle be present as he was the last one to make the treaty with the Quilete's leader, Ephriam Black."
Bella watched as Carlisle nodded and stepped forward. Renesmee looked confused as did Bella. She thought they were now allies, what had changed? She spoke up..
"Why a treaty, why now? Didn't we become allies yesterday? Now we're a threat...Jacob...I don't understand."
Edward put his arm around her waist. "Bella, love. It's only for the protection of everyone if lines are established. She looked at Jake with saddened eyes.

*Standing between Edward and Jacob, sending out calming thoughts trying to diffuse a tense situation that was building. I hold out my hand in peace towards Sam knowing he wouldn't take it, but it was there.*
Sam yes I did negotiate the treaty with Ephraim Black, Jacobs ancestor. He and I believed that our word is our bond. I hold with my word will be the same as it was before. To quote the poet Robert Frost the proverb, Good Fences make Good Neighbors. I look forward to the new treaty. I owe you a huge debt for the sacrifices that La Push Pack made on our behalf.
*Dropping my hand, with a smile that should disarm the most distrustful heart.*

*standing back with the rest of the family, she watched as Jacob, Sam and Carlisle spoke to each other. She knew if anyone could keep the tension down, it would be Carlisle. With his calming manner, and gentle hand, he would be able to control the situation. She stepped closer to Bella, just wanting to be close to her family while this was transpiring. Listening to the gentle tone of her husbands voice, she watched both packs*

Sam stayed quiet looking at Jake to bring forward the terms of the new treaty. He was closer to the Cullens than he was and Dr. Cullen was the only exception to the vampires. Him Sam actually liked after saving Jake when he was crushed by the new born. Eyes locked on to Jake as Sam nodded.

-Looking to Bella's saddened eyes, he held his head down as words were exchanged from Carlisle and Sam. This was by no means what Jake wanted, but it was safer to put boundaries on. Everyone knew where they stood, and the lines they couldn't cross. Looking at Carlisle he began to relay the agreed treaty, as Edward translated to him.-
On turning of a human ALL- Looking at Sam as he said all- must be informed and agreed on circumstances, of turning said human. The La push is still off grounds for Cullens unless permission is given by Alpha. Rouge Vamps will be removed from area with force unless Cullens or myself take responsibility of Vampire in question. The Quil pack has no loyalty to Cullens unless it affects the area or pack directly. The pack will not be involved if it's not a issue to them.
-Looking towards Sam and Paul-
I will be going to and from La push at my own will, me and Sam will keep each other in the know if we feel that pack needs to know. If anyone has any issues with this, you are free to talk with no action from anyone! We arew here to arrange this treaty everyone has a say.

*My gaze falls onto Edward with a simple smile as he tells me what was said. Turning slowly looking at the family with a look that is something we can all agree to. The terms are fair and equable, I know that this will be something that we can agree to, but our family does things democratically. Everyone's eyes seemed to convey this could be honored on our side. Motioning towards Jacob*
Jacob would you please ask Sam to shift into his human form, so we can agree on this with a handshake. The Cullen's will keep up to our end of the treaty with one small addition from our side. Renesmee will always be protected as will the Cullen family since Jacob is imprinted on Nessie and it would destroy her to lose a family member.
Jacob mentally links with Sam asking for him to shift to his human form that they the Cullen's agree with the treaty.

Refusing to shift back with no offense to Dr. Cullen Sam just looked at the good doctor and nodded letting him know that was their handshake. Without another word Sam turned his massive body around and headed back into the forest with the pack on his heals but not before Embry and Quil stopped to look over their shoulders at Jake almost apologizing to him for Sam. And just as soon as they appeared, they were gone

Bella watched as Carlisle and Edward whispered to one another. Carlisle gave a small nod then began speaking. She watched the wolves as he spoke. Esme holding her right hand as Nessie held her left. She just wanted things civil and here they were back like it was before, sorta.
Sam nodded his black wolf head and turned to leave. He was refusing to shift human. He was still sore about vampires being around here, but did tolerate us all. Paul and Jared turned immediately to follow. Quil and Embry looked at Jacob with a longing glance and turned with their heads down to leave. That was...weird.
Jacob ran off into the trees and Bella was about to go after him when he emerged human in his cut off shorts. "Bella, I wanted to tell you myself. My pack agrees to those terms. Sam and his pack will only ever protect Renesmee. If any other Cullen is in danger, just my pack will be there. But you have my word...we have alliances with you. All of you." A sigh escaped her lips, a relieved sigh. She smiled. "Thanks, Jake." Nessie ran up to him and hugged his hip. She was taller since this morning. "Mind if I take her run?" She looked at Edward and then to Nessie. "I guess, just...be back for lunch. Or...hunt. But make sure she eats." Jacob smiled and picked her up, as Leah turned to leave. Seth looked to Edward and in an unspoken conversation, Edward laughed.
Bella smiled as she watched Edward and Seth have their conversation. The rest of the family began to enter the house as she looked to Esme. "Well, its a start." She said before turning to head inside with everyone else.
