The Next Battle (Edward POV)
"Who's next?" I asked getting irritated that we were all losing to four kids that weren't even a year old.
"Daddy, you know... we look and seem way more then one so..." Ella began.
"SUCK IT UP!" Carmie blurted.
"Exactly..."
"Fine girls." I gave up knowing there was no reason to argue with them. Jalice and Rosette you never fought yet... come on, come on Jasper thought. "Jasper you could just say it no sense in hiding when I'm not the only one who can read minds now... Well sometimes I'm not the only one."
"It's okay uncle Jasper if your to scared I'll volunteer them." Ella said willingly. "Candy! Rosette! You're up next!" She called.
"Okay..." Candy and Rosette called together and sounding unwilling.
"Who do you guys want to challenge?" I asked.
Candy and Rosette looked around scanning the adults including Emmett who didn't come out form beneath the rocks and didn't even bother to wipe off his badly applied make up off his face. Candy and Rosette just giggled as Emmett finally showed a sign of life by waving at them and stood up with a moan. "I'm never gonna get them back am I?" He asked. We all just shook our heads and he headed for the house.
"YOU!" Candy and Rosette screeched. "WE CHALLENGE YOU!"
"I don't think that's fair, knowing you guys can't use your powers on family." I commented trying to get myself out of challenging them since I find it hard to target my own family.
"Well if we don't think and we let our instincts take over then we might win but don't forget that I still have my talent of Kung Fui!" Candy commented.
"Still not my fault if you two loose." I added, trying to threaten them to change their decision to fight me.
"Dad, it's hard for us to target you too." Carmie started. Great, I forgot Ella could read my mind and they were exchanging looks. "If we can do it you can do it too! So SUCK. IT. UP!" suck it up, suck it up, and suck it up. Carmie chanted in her mind.
"Hey Carmie lets go to the cottage so dad has an easier time." Ella suggested. "I need to get something from there anyway"
"Sure." Carmie agreed. They took off into the woods. I watched as Ella made her way through the trees and Carmie weave her way past bushes and fallen trees.
Carmie POV
Ella and I took off into the woods well I did and Ella took off into the trees. Stupid talent... Doing things in different way.
"It's so not stupid Carmie. You can out smart an evil person with your devious mind and people who expect a certain way will be surprised with my un... normal ways." Ella defended. "Lets take our time it's not like were beating a storm."
"Yeah your right." I agreed. It took us five minutes to get to the cottage. "So what did you need to get?" I asked.
"I needed to get away from there. I don't really wanna see daddy get hurt." Ella admitted.
"Little miss goodie two-shoes." I insulted.
"That's me!" Ella chirped. "Come one do you actually want to see daddy get beat up by our younger cousins?" Great. She was making sense...
"Let's go… I hear some weird sound coming from the house." I said turning my head in the direction of the house. "Race you back?" I asked suddenly up for a challenge.
"Sure… But no transporting!" Damn...
"Okay." but by the time I could move she was in the trees. "Cheater!" I screeched and I transported myself to where she was at so it would be even.
"You cheater you just broke the rules..."
"Yes, but you took off before I did so now were even." We arrived at the house and there were defiantly weird sounds coming from the back. "Let's check it out before they know were here..." I suggested.
"Get on my back. Let's go on the roof." Ella said giving me her back.
"Nah. I have a better way." and I transported myself up to the roof. "Like this." I said tauntingly as I watched Ella swiftly grab onto a branch about 20 feet up and toss herself beside me in a fraction of a second. She poked her tongue out at me and I just smiled. "You could have done that too." I commented. "But sweet jump."
"Thanks but that would have taken me about 3 seconds..." We looked down only to see what we didn't want to see.
Daddy got kicked in the stomach by Candy. "POWER OF KUNG FUI!" Candy taunted. Daddy was lying on the ground motionless. I took a step forward but Ella held me back.
"He has a plan... shhh." I watched as Candy and Rosette was doing a very long handshake. We watched as daddy suddenly jumped and had Candy in one are and Rosette in the other in a choke hold face down.
"LET ME GO!" Candy and Rosette pleaded.
"If we can't sleep what makes you think we can get knocked out?" Edward taunted.
We didn't like seeing our dad be beat up neither did we like our cousins. "Plan?" Ella asked.
"Shhh... put a mental field around us." I answered. In a matter of seconds I could feel there was a shield around us so daddy couldn't hear. "This might not be fair but Candy and Rosette is being beaten and their dresses are getting badly torn."
Ella looked at me confused. "Could you care less about the dresses?" Ella asked. "You know once daddy gets too in he goes all the way in."
"Right and so we need to help our cousins out. And we have to save them the humiliation if their dresses get torn to a certain degree..."
"True. They so owe us." Ella said thinking. "Transport me a vine will yeah?"
"Do I get to know why...?" I asked... "Oh..." I said finally understanding.
"If I can be a monkey might as well act as it." I transported a really tall tree with many vines around it. "There must be a big gap in the woods now." Ella commented stunned.
"No worries. I'll put it back as soon as were done with it. Although transporting it back and forth seems like fun... So you know I can join you with the safety of a vine wrapped around me. By the way do you want me to transport you a banana too or are you good?"
"What are you gonna do chase me around a tree full of vines, calling me monkey girl? If I can be a monkey might as well act as it and if I can swing like a monkey might as well use it" Ella said tauntingly.
"Stop reading my mind..."
"Not happening. Here we go..." Ella swung off, vine in hand. In a split second daddy was in a tree and Ella was in the middle of the confused half sisters gang. "You owe us."
"Thank you!" Candy and Rosette called together as they raced up a tree that looked really slow if you compared it to Ella's speed of climbing up a tree.
"Huh, I guess I gotta put the tree back now" I complained. Please someone say no, please someone say no, please, please, please have someone say no.
"No Carmie, don't transport it yet you guys will need it for this challenge after Renesmee and Jacob's battle." Carlisle explained. YES!!!
"Battle Over" Rosette explained happily. While Candy was mouthing the words thank you to me and Ella.
"I don't think that, that was a fair battle, considering that interference" Edward complained while glaring at us.
"I guess that daddy means us!" I said to Ella trying to hold back giggles.
