This is going to be femslash. Strictly Bellice. So if you have a problem with that don't read it. The rating for this will be mostly M.
Both Alice and Bella are vampires. Well Bella is a bit different but u will find out more later... Jasper is human and with Edward and their story is a little bit different from the Edward/Bella in the books. Although i am keeping the bit about James dying and Victoria going after the Cullens for vengeance. The rest of the Cullens are canon.
Casper is Jasper, it's not a mistake. Bella wasn't paying attention to Victoria.
Thanks for the alert/reviws/favorites

Chapter 2 Lucky
The plane rocked again and all the human heart rates went wild again. God they were so insecure. Stupid humans. I was considering killing them just to put them out of their stupidity.
Yes kill!
Oh how I wanted to just kill every single one of them. I could do it so easily. All I have to do is turn a little bit to the right and kill the woman next to me, then the man behind her, after that the noisy stewardess, who kept bugging me every fucking-five minutes. Yes I would love to have a drink, out of you!
After her the pilot, I couldn't let him inform anyone about the screaming. And then I could take my time with the rest passengers. When I was done all I had to do was crash and burn the plane, accidents like that happen all the time, no one would suspect a thing.
Do it!
This was so painful. I had to swallow the venom in my mouth, because I was about to start drooling like a retard.
It turned out that Forks was quite far from where I was. So I had to take a few airplane flights to reach it, luckily for me this was my last one, unluckily for the human passengers I was getting more irritated and impatient by the second.
Being trapped in a can filled with delicious food didn't help. The only thing I could hear was the throbbing of the human hearts around me.
I'm so thirsty!
I pretended to sleep during this flight; it was a lame attempt to avoid the annoying, horny stewardess.
What made the situation even more irritating was my decision to not drink any more human blood. I know its lame, but it's necessary. Vampires who drink human blood have red eyes and those who drink animal blood have a strange ochre eye color. So in order to fit in with animal lovers and be trusted by Casper, I had to change my diet. My eye color now was a strange dark orange; with a few more animals I could probably have the correct color.
Just thinking about the foul taste of animal blood in my mouth disgusts me. I don't think that I'll be able to put u with that act for too long.
These wolves better be worth it, I'm now fighting my nature just for a chance to examine them. Well even if they are not worth it, I could always make a glorious hunt out of them. Twelve beasts. That would have to suffice me for now.
I slowly opened my eyes and gazed out of the window. It was pitch black outside, there were no stars or moonlight, the sky was clouded as far as my eyes could see. Humans probably saw nothing due to their problematic eyesight.
It shouldn't be long now. An involuntary sigh of relief left my lips; I could make out the lights of the airport in the distance. Finally this torturous flight was coming to an end.
Once again I was battling with my inner self not to just rip a hole in the wall and jump. Underneath me was the Olympic Peninsula National forest, aka my target area.
I actually never visited this particular area; the closest I've been to this place was Seattle. And the closest safe house I had was in Alberta, Canada. I kept a few safe houses around the world; they came in handy quite a few times. Especially when you constantly fly around the world chasing something that probably doesn't exist anymore.
Through the endless hours I spent in airplanes I had to look at a few maps to familiarize myself as much as I good with the Washington state area.
During my musings the plane had actually landed and everyone started to get off. I stood up and tried to make my way to the door. But I was road blocked by the annoying aforementioned blond stewardess.
"I hope you enjoyed your flight and please use our airlines again." She said, giving me what I suppose should be a seductive smile.
I just stared at her with an indifferent look. But she obviously wasn't fazed at all by my uncaring demeanor. She stepped to the side, annoying smile still in place. As I was passing her she put a card in my hand and whispered. "I'm going to be in town for 24 hours." She wasn't unattractive for a human and if she wasn't so annoying maybe I could spent a night with her. I just couldn't because I liked to make a desert out of the humans I slept with.
I snorted loudly, a few heads turned to stare me, and I threw the card back. Not wasting another second with her.
When I finally managed to get out of the airport with my few belongings. I didn't need much and I was for all intended purposes a nomad passing through. Nomads rarely carried more than a backpack, if any at all.
I was now in Port Angeles. I could have taken a flight directly to Forks, but I didn't want to accidently bump on any vampires or werewolves, just yet.
I walked around for a little while. It seemed like a quiet town, a few shops, a couple of bars and a mall. I walked away from the shops and towards what looked like the outskirts of the town until I spotted the perfect place, it was a small cozy hotel, close to the woods and a little bit away from the town. Nomads don't usually rent rooms but I needed a room, a safe house, where I could leave my bags and lay low if need be.
The receptionist was a middle-aged woman, I liked her, she didn't ask anything and she gave me immediately a room with view of the forest, perfect for a quick escape, as I requested.
My first goal was to find which territory belonged to whom, the borderline Victoria mentioned and if possible I wanted to meet the boy alone.
There were a few hours left before sunrise and it was now raining cats and dogs. Luck seemed to be on my side now. The heavy rain would quickly disband my scent, so I could go around in Forks as I pleased.
I jumped out of the window and run vampire speed to the cover of the trees. I didn't mind getting wet, but only a few drops reached my skin.
I checked the nearby area for a while, the wild life around here was amazing. I would have to take a rain check on truly appreciating it thought.
I said a temporary goodbye and started to follow the road leading to Forks. Using Vampire speed I reached the Welcome to Forks sign in less than fifteen minutes. I took that as my signal to stop, I couldn't just march into town.
It was time to use my power, or rather just a part of it. My power was a type of shield, but I could do more things with it than protect myself. For example, I could use it as a radar, to find if there were any vampires in the area.
I could expand my shield to any direction and cover a big area, when I came across the mind of a human, a vampire or an animal I saw it in my mind's eye as a little dot. Humans were red, animals yellow and vampires grey. Since I was so tuned in with vampires the first two were harder to spot, so I ignored them. Actually, using my gift as radar I could gather a lot of useful information.
The only downside to it is that when I covered big areas like now, I was quite vulnerable to attacks. So I refrained of using it when I was around others.
As I scanned the area of what I believed to be the town of Forks, I didn't "see" any vampires. So they probably live outside the town. That made sense; animal drinkers or not it must be a real hustle to go without human blood for long times, so living near to humans would be pushing it. I barely made it through all of the flights. Yes, I just started this diet but still I had a really good control over my bloodlust.
Even thought there were no vampires in town, I decided to run the perimeter first. Maybe then I would be able to find a scent of a vampire to follow. Or I would encounter the awful smell of werewolves that Victoria mentioned.
As I ran the heavy rain became just a light drizzle.
I had run about half of the perimeter when I spotted a scent, but it was a human one. A very fresh one which meant there was someone nearby. But isn't it kind of early for a human to be wandering in the forest?
Before I even decided what to do my legs were taking me there, the monster in me craved for the blood. I was really close now; I could hear a heartbeat and some crunching noises.
As I reached the human, I climbed a tree right above his head to examine him, with more ease. Of course he didn't notice me. They never did.
It was a human boy clumsily trying to make his way in the wild life. He didn't look like a hunter, and he definitely wasn't dressed as a hiker. He was wearing a brown hoodie and skinny jeans, which had many grass stains on them. Yep, definitely not a hiker.
The boy was 15 or 16 years old, his face still held a boyish roundness and he was about 5' 9'' feet tall, with a little muscle. He had wavy honey blond hair, which reached just above his jaw and his eyes held a deep chocolate brown color.
For a human he was attractive and he smelt delicious, like cinnamon and seawater with a hint of something else that I couldn't pinpoint just yet. Any other day he would have been a perfect meal for me. But I couldn't now. I felt my fingers dig in the branch I was standing.
Luckily he didn't notice the crunching noises the branch under me was making. He was caught in his own frustration, desperately trying to free his leg from a tree root. Maybe I should kill him to put him out of his misery?
As I thought that the boy managed to free himself only to stumble and fall face first on the ground. It was quite comical to watch, he had some serious balance issues.
He didn't move from his position at all he just left a big sigh of defeat and continue to just lay there. I considered passing him by for a second, but then when will I have the chance to spot a Forks resident alone in the woods. And being young he ought to know everything about the small town. Young people loved to gossip these days. And I needed to know where the people of Forks hung out, so that I could mingle with them to find Casper. If I was lucky he might know Casper too.
I jumped on a small rock making as little noise as I could; I was standing about 10 feet away from him. I cleared my throat as a sign to the boy that he wasn't alone, but he didn't look up. I coughed a little louder, still nothing. Didn't he hear that?
"Are you alright?" I asked false concern covering my voice.
His heart beat jumped at the sound of my voice and he looked up shocked. He studied my features quickly and then focused on my face, all the while trying to get up as quickly as he could.
"What do you want?" his voice cracked twice and his heart beat went haywire.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to scare you." I put a fake friendly smile on my lips and continued "I saw you laying there and I thought you needed help." I replied, which was basically the truth. I took a small step back to give him some false sense of security.
He seemed to believe me, but the fear was still there, maybe it was his instincts telling him to run away from the predator. His eyes kept looking around for an escape? Poor human did he seriously believe that he could outrun me? Humans are so naive. Always running… Fighting and kicking till the last possible minute. Why is it so hard to accept the inevitable?
Hunt him down. Kill him!
No I can't. He better not run, I'm not sure that I would be able to resist the urge to hunt him then.
A few minutes went by none of us talking. This ought to be one of my weirdest encounters with a human. He seemed fascinated by my eyes, true they were a weird color, but I could easily be wearing contracts, many young ones did that nowadays. Or didn't they? Maybe they were black from thirst. I was after all listening to the rhythmic drumming of his heart which was calling me to end this the way my beast wanted to.
"Do you know the Cullen's?" He blurted out suddenly.
The name sounded familiar. I heard it before, but where? Maybe they were famous? Like the Kardashian's? The new generation definitely picked weird topics to start a conversation. What happened to what's your name? What are you doing in the middle of the forest? Jeez.
"Are they the new Kardashians?" I asked trying not to sound too bored by the way this conversation seemed to go. At least his heartbeat seemed to slow down.
As soon as the words left my mouth he looked stunned and then he was gaping like a fish for a minute there or two. I just stared at him curiously waiting for him to say something; if possible this was getting weirder by the second. Was he on drugs? Humans did that a lot nowadays; actually this would explain him being super weird and the complete lack of coordination. And the fact that his walking alone in the forest on such an early hour.
Suddenly he closed his mouth and studied me for a second, before he stated the obvious. "You have no idea who they are?" His lips twitched a little, trying to hide a smile. He was clearly amused by my lack of knowledge.
I shook my head for no "Aren't they famous?" I asked confused.
"No" he said and then looked quickly to my right and he frowned just a little, as if he was expecting someone to be there.
"Then why should I know them?" I asked, also looking to my right. There was no one around for miles.
"Because you're in their territory." He stated coolly, giving me what should be a meaningful look.
Territory? As in vampire territory? Humans rarely used the term territory; it's mostly a vampire thing. Could this boy be Casper?Or was he one of the werewolves, he was too uncoordinated for that. But what if it was all an act? Nah a werewolf would pretend not to know what I am.
He was studying my expression checking if I got the message. Today must be my lucky day.
"So you know." I stated, not showing any emotion.
He nodded his heart missing a beat and his eyes checking to my right once more.
"Are you expecting someone?" I asked curiously. I turned my head to the right to breathe a little Casper free air. I can't kill him, yet.
"Yes." He was trying to be calm, but he sounded nervous as hell.
"There is no one coming. Actually there is no one around for miles." As I said that his heart started to beat faster again.
"Someone is coming." He seemed certain.
"You do know I have heighten senses?" if they told him about our existence it was only natural to tell him what goes hand in hand with being a vampire.
"I know, but I also know my best friend and my over protective boyfriend." He stated as he moved towards a fallen tree trunk and sat down.
"Did you have a date with them, out here?" I checked again, maybe I should leave. I just got here, do I want to meet them? Hm, nope no one is coming.
"No, but Alice would know that I'm out here, and she probably got a vision when you decided to talk to me. If Edward was around when she got it then he'll know too. Damn, I hope she was out of the house; I don't want to fight with him again. He gets so controlling when it comes to my safety. It's really annoying. Maybe it's a vampire thing? But then again he might be right! I mean who has a fight with his vampire boyfriend about what's safe, and then stomps out of his house and into the woods only to meet another vampire? What kind of luck is this? This is not fair!" he finished his little rant pulling his hair with both hands in frustration and his eyes glistening with tears. Oh god he is going to cry now? He is so gay!
And he sure talks a lot. Chatty people always annoyed me. At least what he says is funny enough. And he shares information easily, even if it's unnecessary information.
"The controlling is not vampire thing. Possessive yes, but only with our mates and territory. A few tend to get over protective with their mates when they are young and have little emotional control. But from what I witnessed the older a vampire the better the emotional control. Are you dating a newborn?" I don't know why I told him all that, I'm not one to share information; he seemed a little shocked too.
"No. He is supposed to be 110. And we have been together for a year and a half now. Will it ever get better?" he asked, his eyes hopeful.
"I think so. The situation will change drastically once you are turned. Actually you being human must be the cause for that behavior. The monster in him doesn't recognize you as an equal but rather as a fragile human. That's why human vampire relationships never work out. When are you going to be turned?" This is good, engaging the too trusting human in casual conversation.
"We are fighting about that too, he doesn't want to change me." He said sadly his voice barely a whisper.
"Why? You are not his mate?" for some weird reason I felt a little sorry for the boy. Maybe because his boyfriend sounded so agitating. Why become involved with a human and let him in on the secret if you have no intention of changing him? And moreover it's against the rules.
But I could use this to my advantage if I needed to destroy this coven, I had the perfect excuse. They broke the rule, that's reason enough. And being an ex-Volturi member I had a right to enforce the rules. Or I could just let Jane know.
"He says I am his mate, but he doesn't want to damn my soul by turning me into a soulless monster like himself." He sounded defeated and I silently wandered how many times they had that ridiculous argument. I chuckled lightly and Casper stared at me irritably, he looked like an angry puppy.
"I'm glad my miserable life amuses you." His voice colored with anger. This boy literally wore his heart on his sleeve. It was very easy to tell what his was feeling, like his emotions were rolling off of him.
"It's not your miserable life that's amusing. I just can't believe how stupid one has to be to believe such a poor excuse." He raised an eyebrow in confusion.
"Did you just call me stupid?" why was this news to him? Most humans are.
"Your boyfriend has no soul but he has a soul mate? Isn't it obvious that to have one you got to have the other too? Some of my kind tends to believe that we have no souls. Yes we can be beasts but I always thought that we had a soul; it's what you do with it that makes the difference. Not that I believe in heaven or hell nor god. I only believe in justice, sooner or later you will get what you deserve." He was quiet after that, processing what I told him.
I moved to a sitting position and stared at the sky. It was quite bright now and there were a few sunrays coming through the clouds. Hm we've been here for a while now.
And you haven't learned anything of importance.
I heard throat clearing and looked back down. Casper was studying me with a curious expression.
"Can I ask you a question?" he asked nervously.
"You just did." I grinned at him and his cheeks flushed red. He ducked his head under my intense gaze and started fumbling with his fingers. This is bad. I felt the venom pool in my mouth…
"Ask away." I said since it didn't look like he was going to ask and I need a distraction from his scent. His head shot up and he eyed me curiously again.
"No offence, but how old are you?" he asked.
"Eighteen." I replied automatically, grinning just a little. That was the age I was turned to a vampire, the age I've been frozen for more than a thousand years.
He grinned back at that and continued. "And for how long have you been eighteen?"
"A little over a thousand years." I replied. His face was one of shock, his eyes as wide as possible and his mouth was hanging open. I was shocked too. Why was I telling him the truth? To be precise I was honest all along. There was certainly something odd about this boy.
"Wow! And I thought Carlisle was old." He said a little awe struck. Carlisle Cullen. I heard this name before.
"So what are you doing out here?" I have to direct the conversation away from me.
"I told you, I had a fight with my boyfriend, about my safety." He sighed. "I just needed to get out of the house, alone. So he would see that I am fine by myself and I don't need 24/7 surveillance."
"And you fled out here?" I asked raising an eyebrow. Isn't he a smart cookie?
"I admit it wasn't one of my brightest ideas! But I am Cullen free and alive." He argued.
"True. And for how long do you think you are going to be alive?" I asked grinning a little.
That took him by surprise. An almost inaudible "oh" falling from his lips.
My grin grew wider as I heard his heart going faster and faster.
A/N
Ok, I have no idea if there are woods close to Port Angeles, in my story there are, just go with it.
Will Bella kill Jasper?
Sorry for the cliffy, I had to cut it here because it would be much longer than the previous chapter. Do you want longer chapters? Or is this ok? And am I moving this too fast or too slow?
