What Do You Want From Me?

By: Rabbitx14

So, this is my second attempt at a Twilight fan fiction; first of which has multiple chapters. I was inspired while watching New Moon on my laptop a few days ago. Bella is standing on the cliff about to jump in New Moon when she is given the option to jump, knowing exactly how her life will pan out or take on the future not knowing and not jump. This is a Bella/Jacob fan but for you Edward fans, he will be an important character as the story pans out. Please read and reply. I could use any of the insight anyone may have!

I don't own anything other than the mystery character. She's all mine. Everything else belongs to Miss Stephenie.


I was standing at the top of the cliff, looking down into the blue abyss as the wind tousled my brown hair. Had I lost my mind? I wondered if I truly had - the whole reason I was up here was because it was the only way for me to hear his perfect voice. I needed the danger. For the pack, this was as easy as eating a pound of eggs - I, however, wasn't a werewolf so this was pretty much suicide.

I wondered if it was worth it and figured that it probably was. I didn't care - I couldn't see myself living in a world where I couldn't see his face. Jacob - I knew he probably loved me; but I also knew it wouldn't last. I was just a teenage crush - everyone knows those don't last. Edward, he was over a hundred years old - his love for me... No, that didn't last either. He left me. He didn't want me. Regardless, I had to see him - to feel him close to me.

I stood closer to the edge and took a deep breath. I could feel Edward's presence. I could hear his smooth voice pleading with me to stop. This was my new heaven.

"I would think twice before you do that, Bella."

My head snapped to look behind me as my body followed suit. A tall, woman stood before me - maybe 17 or 18 years old. Her hair was like the delicate feathers of a raven, her skin a delicate mix of copper and that of the "pale faces", her eyes a beautiful chocolate brown. She reminded me of Jacob. Her body was very different from mine. She reminded me of Xena - narrow waist and wide, Amazon-like hips with broad strong shoulders and thick powerful thighs. Her outfit consisted of a brown camouflage bikini top and knee length jean shorts. What caught my attention the most was the tattoo on her right arm - it was the symbol of the Quileute pack.

"You don't realize the choice you're about to make," she whispered - her voice strong, "you're standing at the biggest cross roads of your life right now and you don't even know it."

I looked at her in amazement. What was she talking about?

"Who are you?"

She smiled at me with the same confident grin Jake always gave me, "Alice Cullen - her visions are subjective. The future can change with the simple decisions we make in our lives."

"How do you...."

"Oh, Bella," her voice sang, "you're such a curious little kitten. I know because I stayed with them for quite some time."

"Why?" I demanded, "Who are you?"

"That is not important. I am here for show you your life if you don't jump from this cliff."

"And if I do jump?"

She frowned, "then it's simple. Alice has a vision of you jumping, assumes you are dead and comes rushing back. Rosalie tells Edward who then goes to the Volturi to die. You save him. You get married; have a daughter named Reneseme, who is a hybrid - half human and half vampire. You nearly die while in labor and your husband saves you by making you a vampire and you all live happily ever after."

I blinked at her. I was at a loss for words. I would be with Edward forever - just as I want to be. Then why is she concerned if I jump?

"And if I don't?"

She grinned, "That's why I'm here; to show you the white side of the ying yang."

"No offense but I think you've..."

"Lost my mind?" She smirked as she began to walk towards the cliff, "I'm not crazy but I'm also not really here per say and neither are you - well, you are but in reality, you're staring at the water while I talk to you."

I looked at her in complete disbelief. None of this was making sense.

"I took over your mind. It's an ability I have," she looked at me and sighed, "When I leave here today, you'll remember only part of why you made the decision you did but the details will be blurry."

"Are you a vampire?"

"Yes and no," she looked at her tattoo and then back at me, "my name is Rayne. I am the first of my kind. I was born human. My father is a Quileute shape-shifter from another time. In the midst of a war, a vampire bit me and normally, that would kill my kind but instead, like a human, I was turned into a vampire. Since I had already begun phasing, the ability came along with me. I have the strength and power of both the wolf and the cold ones."

I laughed out load. This was complete insanity. Although, I had to admit that I was curious as to what my life would be like if I didn't jump. What other life was out there for me?

I looked down at the water then at this woman and sighed.

"Show me."


And there you have it. That is the prologue. Please let me know what you think so far
