《Crazier Then You (Twilight // Crazy Jane)》Chapter 9
Advertisement
Jane really didn't want to have to wait for Charlie to come pick her up. She didn't like being around the cult or Embry who ditched Jake and Quil. So? She sat with her arms crossed and staring down at the table as Emily baked. The boys had to run off somewhere but it would only be a matter of time before they came back. "So Jane how has Forks been treating you?" Emily asked in hopes of having the girl talk or even open up, she seemed tense.
"It's okay I suppose...... a bit boring." She muttered making Emily laugh and shake her head. If only Jane knew the secret she wouldn't find this town so boring. "Yeah well we do have a beach and a cliff to jump from but I guess that's about it unless you go to Port Angela's." Emily seemed to say with an unbreakable smile that Jane couldn't understand. "So why'd you move here? If you don't mind me asking?" Emily asked clearly trying to make Jane release more information in her self then she liked.
"Charlie and Bella are the only family I have left." Jane said without looking at a confused Emily. "Well what about your mom?" Emily asked wondering why the girl was so shielded. Jane looked uneasy but answered in a mumble, "She died when I was young." Emily thought she was getting through to the girl so of course she didn't notice the shift coming. "Well what about your dad?" She asked excited to tell the boys she'd learned more about Jane then they had the whole time knowing her but her smile fell as Jane changed.
There in all her glory was Hammerhead, her under eyes dark with eye liner and she looked pissed. "What is this? Fucking 21 questions or something? Let's just say that bastard got what he deserved....... douchbags probably rotting in hell as we speak." Hammerhead spat in disgust and hatred. Emily slowly nodded realizing Janes father must be a touchy subject for her and all her personalities. She had a hint that he must have been abusive or worse when she had been a child. She hoped it wasn't what she thought it was.
"Hi I'm Emily and who are you?" She asked the personality nicely having never met anyone besides Jane. She was actually excited for the interaction but a bit nervous of how aggressive this person was. "Hammerhead." Is all she said as she leaned back putting her feet on the table. Emily's nose scrunched up but she didn't say anything sending that Hammerhead wasn't someone who took authority well.

Suddenly a bunch of hoots and hollers came from the driveway making Hammerhead fake gag. Emily actually chuckled at the girls action but smiled brightly as Sam walked in. He looked to Emily then to the feet on the table with a quirked eyebrow but she simply shook her head. Soon the rest of the boys piled in all eyes on Hammerhead as she looked at her nail polish. Embry walked in and instantly recognized hammerhead. "Hammerhead good to see you again." Embry said with a smile that quickly disappeared as a heated glare came from Paul.
"I wish I could say the same thing Embryo." She taunted messing up his name making everyone laugh at his expense. "Hello hammerhead." Paul greeted with a warm smile. She simply turned to him since he was sitting beside her with pursed lips. She gave a nod before looking at all the men who were shirtless making her feel ready to be sick. "Something wrong?" Jared laughed as Hammerhead looked at them all in disgust. "Don't any of you own shirts? Like seriously toxic masculinity much?" She asked with a scoff.
Emily could clearly tell by how she wrapped her arms around herself a bit closer that she was uncomfortable with them like this only making her more aware of what had happened to Jane. "Um Sam can we talk in private?" Emily asked with a sweet voice to not alert the boys. She didn't want them listening in on something private. Sam however looked at her wide eyed and nodding vigorously thinking something was wrong.
As Emily went in the other room to tell Sam her hypothesis she sat down the fresh muffins. All the boys looked to who was now sitting with them. With big ole pig tails baby doll was shoving a muffin in her mouth making a mess. They all chuckled at her as she simply giggled and got it all around her mouth leaving a mess. Paul laughed along with the boys but went and grabbed a paper towel and wiped her mouth. "So who might this lil cutie be?" Jared asked ina slight baby voice knowing she had to be a child with her antics. "Duh I'm a baby doll silly." She giggled still stuffing her face while Paul glared at Jared for calling her cute.
"Hey Babydoll." Embry said happy to see one of his favorite personalities he had met while hanging out with Jane and Jacob. Babydoll grew ecstatic seeing Embry, "OH MY GOSH EMBRY!!" Babydoll squeals in excitement as she smiled at him widely. Paul was yet again growling at how baby doll seemed to talk to everyone but himself but that soon changed as her big smile went to him. "Hi Pauly did you like the cupcakes at the party?" She asked remembering how she had met him. He was a legend in the underground no one knew why but none of them could stop thinking about him.

"You were right they were delicious baby doll." He said with a warm smile that made babydoll blush at being appreciated. But she soon was cut out by Jane reappearing, she was quick to pull out the ugly pigtails with a groan. She immediately rested her head in hand and looked at all the boys staring at her funny. "Problem?" She asked in an annoyed voice making theme all look away besides Paul. Jane immediately turned and stared into his eyes for a few minutes before looking back to her muffin with furrowed eyebrows.
Sam and Emily walked in both looking tense and Sam now wore a shirt. He nodded his head to Jared and Embry making them follow him to the living room. Paul looked with a slight glare unsure of what they were doing. He was about to listen in when Emily began using a loud mixer almost on purpose. But Jane and Paul didn't notice. Paul just shrugged it off as nothing. Both Jared and Embry came in wearing somber expressions and shirts.
Sam looked like he was debating on telling Paul but he simply threw a shirt at him. Paul looked at him with a glare not wanting to be hot. But as Sams eyes referred to an uncomfortable looking Jane, Paul was quick to pull the shirt on. Once he had the shirt on Jane seemed to loosen up quite a bit of her stiffness which made Paul smile but also a bit upset. He didn't mean to make her uncomfortable and he truly didn't understand why she would've been. But he pushed it as just being awkward around guys especially half naked ones.
"Hey Jane would you like me to walk you home?" Paul asked hopeful to share one on one time with her. Her eyes went wide and she looked down lists to everyone in her head. She only nodded when Hammerhead and Katie were to the surface in case something happened. "Um yeah sure." She said as she stood up warily at all their eyes on her. She waved awkwardly before rushing out happy to be going home.
Her wrist cast was a shade of black that Jane was great full for, and she ran her fingers across it. "Sorry about that." Paul grumbled hating Bella Swan even more. "It's alright it wasn't your fault plus it was an accident." She shrugged a little awkward being alone with him. Scarlet and Karen were swooning at him as Hammerhead pushed them away and Katy just ignored them.
As the two were walking sight of the beach came attracting Janes full attention. She hadn't seen a beach in person, only shows and pictures. Paul saw her interest and took a chance. "Would you wanna go sit on the beach for a minute? I only ask because you look like you'd want to." He asked smiling shyly at her making Jaren scream YES!!!! And Hammerhead shake her head disapproving. "Um yeah that'd be nice." Jane smiled before following him to a random spot in the sand sitting next to him.
She wouldn't admit this to anyone but she sat a bit closer then probably necessary to Paul. He was warm and Jane was a bit chilly from the cold air. But Paul didn't mind in fact he may have done it on purpose to. The two sat in silence and just watched the waves. Halfway through Paul's focus went to Jane who had a true smile on her face in pure joy of the sight.
Jane didn't notice his staring but Karen did. She was practically a puddle of emotions at the sight of him, she wanted Paul but the others made sure to keep her at bay. They didn't want her to ruin whatever it was Jane felt for Paul. Because he made her feel hopeful and happy.

First Iteration
What is a soul ? Is it your true self ? Would you be the same if your soul kept traveling from life to life but your memories faded for each new life you had ? Your education would be different each time, your growing environment would be different, your personality might change. So what is the purpose of the soul ? Mortals never got an answer for this question. Finding an exact definition didn’t matter for them, what they knew was that a soul allowed reincarnation. Even if they lost some memories, getting glimpses of their past lives was more than enough. Getting the possibility of a new life, a better life was what they thrived for. This became an even greater truth as progenitors, the first of their cycle, became scarce. As hundreds of new progenitors were born each century, nowadays, no more than a handful of them appeared every 200 hundreds years. As they represent a new cycle, they embody new opportunities: some progenitors have made kingdoms, others have been their doom. So when four of them appeared at the same place, at the same time, how can it not be perceived as a sign ? A sign that things were about to change…
