Standing outside amongst an over grown lawn full of weeds and god only knew what else hid behind the long blades of grass
Standing outside amongst an over grown lawn full of weeds, and god only knew what else hid behind the long blades of grass. It'd been a long time since she had returned here. What was it? Almost 6 and ½ years on the dot she thought. As her green eyes took in the back yard they fell upon an old swing set. She thought that if her eyes could form the tears she'd cry at this moment. This moment of looking at an old rusted swing set. This place brought too many emotions up she thought sarcastically. She remembered her family spending those bleak dreary days out here when she was a child. Her father who was a strong and proud man would chase her around the yard laughing and smiling. Her gorgeous mother would watch the two of them from the door with that motherly look in her eyes. She would kill to be able to see her mother look at her with those kind gentle green eyes. She closed her eyes tightly and took a calming breath. No one would think twice about something so insignificant. But for her all of the things that she has done in this messed up world, those times with her family were her most treasured times. Times that she would dream about at night wishing they were still alive.
She turned sharply around and walked back into the small kitchen on through to the living room, she couldn't help but feel as though this was still home to her. It was decrepit and falling apart, the hugest fire trap within a 12 mile radius she thought. But still she grew up here; she survived her parent's death here. She survived going to school here, learning about her powers, about her heritage here. She remembered that day all to well, the funeral that was. That was the day that her parents friends had revealed too her true lineage. Why her parents had died, why her cousin was doomed to spend the rest of her life in eternal darkness.
Walking out the door she hopped onto her sports bike the colour of a midnight blue. She secured her helmet and with one last long look at her childhood home; she sighed and muttering a small incantation started a fire. A fire that enveloped her childhood home about as quickly as a fat man would devour a Twinkie.
Gunning the bike she travelled fast away from the burning wreckage. She'd already called the fire department about a half hour ago. Thank goodness the place had been out in the middle of no where. She at least was able to spend a few fleeting moments in the wreckage. Not that anyone would be surprised it burnt down she thought ironically. Ever since she had left Forks no one had dared try and step one foot in that house or even near it. Kids cooked up an old ghost tale that everyone encouraged that even the adults spread around the town. Rubbish she thought glaring around her as she sped along.
Paying no mind to the road she drove on. Knowing exactly where she was going she sped up. Speeding always made her feel better, but then again breaking the rules pretty much made her always feel better. She was headed to her uncle's place; where she was sure to find her cousin pacing back and forth awaiting her arrival with anticipation. This was a weekend that herself thought was impure and immoral. She didn't want this marriage to go through but she knew that there was no way to stop what was already in place for her cousin. Poor Charlie though he wouldn't even get to walk his own daughter down the aisle; no instead he would be made to believe that she was dead. This wasn't far from the truth she thought sarcastically.
About an hour later she pulled into the small make shift driveway. Taking her helmet off her could see her cousin and an old friend excitedly at the window. They were gesturing for her to come and hurry on up they both had huge grins on there face. Oh this weekend was going to be a hand full she thought. She couldn't help but smile thought as her eyes took in her cousin Isabella, her face was all lit up with happiness and delight. It warmed her heart to at least know that the man or thing whichever you wanted to call him at least cared for her cousin greatly. He loved her with all of his cold heart and body. Dismounting from her bike she ran into the small house and up the stairs right to her cousin's room. Before she could even open the door; her old friend opened it and grabbed her almost crushing her ribs with her supernatural strength.
"Alice stop please stop!" she managed to mutter out as she struggled to get some breath into her lungs.
"Oh my god I can not believe you actually made it out here!" Alice put her down and grinning from ear to ear was just so unbelievably happy to see her, "It really has been too long! Why haven't you come back since…well since you know?"
"I had matters to take care of, plus I had to go to university you silly woman!" she said punching her lightly in the room as she moved towards her cousin, "Hey Bella."
"Kaley I can't believe you actually made it!" Bella stated hugging her close, "You know Alice is right, it really has been a long time."
"Well I had to get things in order Bella but I'm here now." Kaley stated she smiled her crooked grin, "Besides that unlike all of you I do have some responsibilities to attend to back where I live!"
"Oh really like what now?" Alice asked glaring at her in that familiar playful fashion she always had about her.
"Oh I don't know maybe just maybe I'm teaching the craft to younger generations." Kaley retorted rolling her eyes.
"Holy shit you're a teacher!" Alice squealed jumping up and down.
"Now I really remember why I didn't tell you." Kaley said laughing a little, "Or let alone speak to you on the phone. I forgot how loud you are Alice."
"That's so wonderful Kaley congratulations!" Bella stated laughing herself, "I bet all the young boys have major crushes on you!"
"Don't make me hurt you cousin. So Bella let me be the first to ask you," Kaley said grinning at her cousin as she took a seat on Bella's bed, "How nervous are you?"
"Oh my god Kaley you wouldn't believe the butterflies that I have in my stomach!" Bella stated in desperation walking to her dress she felt at the fabric for comfort, "What if I'm making the wrong decision? What if Edward doesn't love me?"
"Trust me Bella he loves you to death literally!" Kaley said with a wicked smirk as she heard Alice giggle a little, "Besides that if he doesn't I'll just have to hunt him down and kill him for you. I'm not completely useless after all."
Bella turned around a calm serene smile on her face. Her fears were settled. She was losing a lot of her family by going through with this decision, but not all of it Kaley thought. She still had a cousin that was just as supernatural as the whole Cullen family were. But for the remainder of the day they all concentrated on helping Bella prepare. Getting her hair all dazzled up, thanks to Alice the woman was an absolute miracle. They got her in her dress, coat on shoes on. They found out that white really was a remarkable color for Bella's skin complexion. Her skin was just pale enough that it almost seemed as though Bella merged into the dress. Problem with having a boyfriend who was a vampire it was a little difficult to ever go and get a tan. The three girls talked and chatted of old times of new times and times that were yet to come according to Alice that was anyways.
Until they all finally had to leave and head towards the Cullen's place. For the actual ceremony and reception which was sure to be just complete entertainment.
Kaley followed Alice and Bella to the Cullen's house. The ceremony would be taking part with the moon in full above them in the gorgeous back yard that Kaley remembered. She realized on the way to there that she was losing yet more family members to the Cullen's bizarre behaviour. She tried to not tear up when she thought of her mother and father and the last time they were all together. This was not about a trip down memory lane this was about getting this wedding over and done with quickly. All she had to do was getting through this and get back home. She wanted to get back to England where she could lay down by the lake and watch the mermaids and the giant octopus play around the waters surface. Where the kids squealed and laughed and fought with each other.
As she drove up the long gravel driveway she grinned a little as she remembered the last time she was here she had accidentally turned Jasper into a toad. Thank goodness that her headmaster had been there to turn him back. Well on the evil side of her she thought it was a shame, Jasper did make a cute toad. But then again Jasper was the lesser of two evils when it came down to either him or Emmett. Oh this was going to be a long night and a long reception.
As she dismounted she could here the squealing as Rosalie and Esme ran out the door to meet up with Kaley. She got bombarded with hugs and kisses. They talked excitedly a little too fast for her too keep up but she was sure to here everything twice over tonight. They ran off to take care of Bella as Kaley stood on the steps before taking a foot inside she heard a familiar laugh from within. Running in she saw that her headmaster from the school she actually taught at was here talking with Carlisle. His long beard and hair were all too familiar to her, dressing in those wizard robes proudly standing there at the foot of the stairs. She would probably get scolded on how she wasn't dressed appropriate but she wasn't all too concerned with what she was wearing. At least she wore nice dress pants and a beautifully vivid green tank top with a sheer white blouse that was mainly there as decorative.
"What are you doing here headmaster?" Kaley asked watching him from about ten feet away kind of glaring at him a little, "You'd better not be here for the purpose that we had already argued over before I left."
"Ahhh Professor Kaley what a pleasure to see you!" he acted obliviously to the fact that Kaley knew why he was here, "I didn't expect for you to come."
"Albus do not treat me like a child I know why you are here!" Kaley hissed her eyes changing from their clear crystal green to an almost pitch black.
"Kaley calm yourself." He whispered as he walked towards her, "I know we discussed this but there is no denying that they all need to come and learn. Your cousin included after tonight she will have no choice."
"This isn't fair!" Kaley stated her fury emanating from her small body, "I don't want my cousin dragged any further into this world."
"I'm afraid you have no choice, just as you had no choice to take that strength into you." Albus said softly with an almost pitying look in his eyes.
She closed her eyes quickly; she could barely stand that look in his eyes. She was always sensitive too his piercing gaze. Every time he looked at her she could feel him using his power slightly to get his way, it always pissed her off when he did that. When she was younger she found it intriguing now that she was older and realized when he was doing it; it was kind of a piss off.
"We've been through this at least a 100 times since I became a teacher at your school!" she hissed her hands instinctively balling up into fists, "I refuse to teach any of them."
"Unfortunately Kaley your going to have to now." She heard Carlisle's smooth calming voice whisper beside her, "As soon as Bella becomes one of us she still has a little magic from just being related to you with in her. It'll need to be trained and channelled properly."
"What about the others?" Kaley opened her eyes to look at him.
"It is about time that they finally went to Hogwarts." Carlisle said looking to Albus as he said this, "I can see that now, especially Edward and Alice. They'll have fun there with you!"
"Albus I'm going to take a shot in the dark and guess that you convinced him." Kaley shot her now green eyes back towards him.
"Now now don't let that power seep into those eyes of yours again." Albus stated holding up his hands in a defensive gesture.
"Do not worry the power may be strong but I do control the Nexus more so then when we first met Albus." Kaley snapped glaring at him, "As you said though, it seems I have no choice or say in this at all. You'd better hope that they behave themselves. If the parents find out that you're allowing vampires into Hogwarts now, you just may have a bit of a rampage on your hands Albus."
"No worries Kaley everything will be just fine this year." Albus stated grinning his wide grin knowing that he was right and she was wrong, "We'll have fun!"
"Yeah just as my first year was fun." Kaley stated grinning herself she turned away from the two to head outside to the backyard.
Vampires at Hogwarts, oh my what next shall we be inviting into our grounds? Kaley couldn't help but shudder at the thought that she'd have to teach them at night and day. They didn't need sleep but she sure as hell did.
