Why exactly did the shapeshifter gene trigger itself in Jacob, Embry & Quil?
The already had a good sized pack - Jared, Paul & Sam.. and the Cullens were gone from the area.
The only vampire left around Forks was Victoria.
So why exactly did others join the pack AFTER the Cullens left and BEFORE they came back?

Maybe it was supposed to be in intuition type thing? The shapeshifter gene knew that the vampires would come back to get Victoria so they built up the pack BEFORE that happened? I dont' know that's just my guess.

I was just thinking about this earlier this morning! I *think* because Laurent was in the area too, and *maybe* that's when Victoria started creating new vampires? No idea.

I think maybe it put the plan in motion when Laurent, James, and Victoria came into the picture. That set the trigger for the gene off. Afterwards, Victoria still stayed in the general area, sending the child vampires into town to spy on Bella, making the gene stronger, as well as Laurent searching. The reason it didn't happen with the Cullens in the area was the treaty put the gene at rest, knowing that the Cullens weren't a great risk.

I believe I found the answer! On Stephenie Meyer's site, I'm reading the "Into the mind of Jacob Black" thing and the potential answer is there.
Your new life starts at a tense time. Not only are the vampires real, they are still here. New ones, not the Cullens. They're hunting in the area and it's your job to stop them.
Yes, the Cullen's left, but NEW vampires are in the area, vampires without a treaty made, vampires they NEED to protect their people from. Or perhaps because the new vampires are IN their area whereas the Cullens were never in their area.
