OK, quick recap:
"Benjamin, would you and Emmett please gather the remains of the sheep and put them in the small barn until after lunch?" He said as he lead the way into the house.
We made our way to the first animal that the children had found. I picked the poor beast up in my arms, attempting to keep the blood from getting on my clothing. I made my way over to the smaller of the barns as Ben turned to go to the field in search of other casualties.
We managed to collected all 3 sheep, and made our way back to the house without ruining our clothing, and hopefully before all the lunch was gone.

Benjamin and I walked into the house as my father and mother had a quick quiet conversation.
"I don't want those boys going out looking for trouble." My mother said with a hint of fear in her voice.
"Dear, I have raised the boys to fend for their selves. They will not go looking for danger, but we can not allow our livestock to be killed." My father said as he took my mothers face in his rough hands and gently kissed her cheeks.
I sighed as Ben and I sat at the end table and began to wonder if I would ever find that "someone" that was supposedly out there for me. I'm sure that when I did that she would be a common, farm raised, hard working woman. I shook my head of those foolish thoughts, I mean I was in NO hurry to find that woman.
Benjamin kicked the edge of the table, and laughed as I flinched.
"Daydreaming Emmett? Who are you thinking about this time, the girl at the market again?" Ben started laughing as I blushed at the thought of the brunette woman I had met a few weeks ago.
"No, I was thinking about getting this animal before you have the chance." I said as I took the chicken off of his plate and took a bite of it before he could say anything.
We were still laughing when my father motioned for all of us to follow him outside. I took the chicken with me as I headed for the door, turning once to smile at my mother.
She nodded, sighing at the man child that was walking out of her kitchen. I knew that when she looked at any of the boys, that she remembered the troubles that we all caused, and also the joy that the future held for all of us.
I walked out the door, joining all of my brothers and father at the edge of the small barn which was closest to the woods.
"Now, I think it would be best if we all split into smaller groups in hope of finding whatever it is that is killing our animals." My father said as he looked around at the sons that he loved dearly.
"I don't want any of you going looking for trouble, I figure 3 groups of 3 or 4 should be enough. I would like you all to take a gun, only to be used in emergency." He looked us all in the eyes making sure that we all understood.
"I would like James, David and Michael to take the Northeast end of the woods. Phillip, Benjamin and Robert will take the Southeast corner, and finally John, Emmett, and Aaron will take the West side. I will be going with the first group and if there are any problems at all please fire the gun and we will all come to investigate." The last part was said with the slightest shake in my fathers voice.
We all broke into our smaller groups and waved/smacked the others as we made our way into the woods.
"All right Emmett, 1 weeks worth of mucking the stalls is the bet that I find the beast before you." Aaron said as he walked into the woods.
"Oh, that's a bet that I want a part of." John laughed as he followed Aaron in.
"OK, but remember that you are the one who made the bet Aaron. No whining when I win." I said as I passed them both and began follow the animal trails deeper into the woods.
We all split up following our own trails when I hear something breaking the branches off to my west. I turned my head towards the sound and slowly began to quietly walk near the sound.
"RROOOOWWWWRRR" Aaron laughed as he came out of the wood to my west.
"Aaron you are going to get shot, or smacked soon." I said as I turned back to the trail that I was following.
We all continued our separate ways and didn't hear anything for about an hour. I was sitting on a rock trying to hear anything out of the normal when I heard a gun shot just off to my south.
"Benjamin, would you and Emmett please gather the remains of the sheep and put them in the small barn until after lunch?" He said as he lead the way into the house.

I promise to remember Bella
Each time I carelessly fall down
And I promise to remember Edward
When ever I'm out of town
I promise to obey traffic laws
For Charlie's sake of course
And I promise to remember Jacob
When my heart fills with remorse
I promise to remember Carlisle
When ever I am in the Emergency Room
And I promise to remember Emmett
Every time there's a huge boom
I promise to to remember Rosalie
When ever I see something that holds pure beauty
And I promise to remember Alice
When I'm at a mall and a cute outfit spots me
I promise to remember Renesmee
When I see that beautiful bronze hair.
And I promise to remember Esme
When someone tells me they care
I promise to remember Jasper
Whenever my stomach isn't curled
And I promise to remember the Volturi
When someone speaks of dominating the world
Yes I promise to love Twilight
Wherever I may go
So that all may see my obsession
Because I know what the Twilighters know.
