Okay so this is like one of my first stories so be nice and tell me what you think. This will mostly be from Bella's POV but a little Edward sometimes. I'll say when it changes to Edwards.
"I accept your pledge," she said simply.
I felt something go through me. I felt stronger. I felt faster. I felt powerful. It wasn't something that just hit though. It grew in me, changing me. I felt very peaceful though, very serene. It probably would have been a subtle change in anyone else but what changed in me was much bigger. I was healed. The hole in my chest had disappeared. For the first time in a long time i smiled, a genuine smile.
"Follow me to your new life." And so I did. Out my window and into the night. I didn't know where we were going but it didn't matter. All that mattered was leaving here for good. I never hesitated, I never looked back and I never regretted my decision.
Edward's POV
I was following the scent of the deer I was hunting. Hunting, that was about all I did these days. I'll admit it; I'm pathetic. I can't live without Her, but I made my choice and no matter how much I wished I hadn't, it was too late now.
I had almost no warning. How I had missed the scent before was a complete mystery but suddenly I found myself facing a scent that was strange and foreign but also shockingly familiar. But before I had time to figure out what it meant, She appeared in front of me.
"Bella?" I asked so quietly I guessed she wouldn't hear me. But she shifted away from me. Or farther away from me I should say. Her face was stern, disciplined and she looked at me with cold eyes. I couldn't blame her of course but it hurt all the same. But that wasn't the only change in her. For one thing she was wearing strange clothes. She had on worn looking brown shorts and tank top matching the woods around them. Her hair was tied back tight and- Was that a silver bow in her hand? This was really strange.
But more than her clothes her whole posture was changed. She held herself in a clearly protective stance leaning away from me. She stood with her head held high and looked nothing like the clumsy, accident prone, Bella I was used to.
"Edward." Bella said it coldly with no inflection in her voice.
"Bella, how-" I began but before I could finish her head shot up as if she heard some sound I hadn't -which was impossible.
She looked behind her and then quickly back to me. "Don't follow me!" She hissed, then took off into the woods.
I was left completely bewildered, so many thoughts reeling in my head. It was shocking enough to see her after this much time but what was she doing out in the middle of the woods? She had changed so much. She looked like a warrior now and, I had to admit, it was kind of sexy. It was all insane though. My Bella, with a bow? It didn't add up. There was also the strange issue of her scent. It was most definitely still Bella, appealing as ever. Even with perfect memory after this long it had been a shock. There was a new woodsy scent on her too, but it was more than that, it was impossible to describe what had changed. But one thing was most unsettling. The thing that was bothering me, the thing that told me for certain something not natural was going on, wasn't all that had changed, but what hadn't.
Bella didn't look like she had aged a day since the last time I saw her – more than 20 years ago.
What do you guys think? I know its short but its just to see what people think. Review and tell me if you think I should continue.
