Author's Note: I don't own Twilight or The Mortal Instruments. I have just used them to create a new twist on the Edward and Bella story line. I hope you like it! Cheers, Kelly.
Chapter 2 Alice PoV
I was tracking an elk when I had a vision.
Vision
Bella walked downstairs and was greeted by Charlie and three other people. She didn't seem to know them and shock registered on her face. Charlie looked like he was trying to explain something to her but she kept denying it. I tried focusing on the three others, but I couldn't see their faces, their faces were fuzzy, I could just define their hair color.
End Vision
The vision ended then, blocked by something unknown. That vision was really weird; I had never had a vision without words before. I got a little worried so I decided I should call me soon-to-be sister.
Ring… Ring… Ring… Ring… Ring… Ring… Ring…
"Hello, Alice," came the voice of Bella.
I smiled, caller Id, the amazing things it has done to today's society, "Bella, do you have any guests?" I asked her.
"No, I have just come downstairs. Charlie is getting ready to go to work… why, what have you seen?" she asked. She sounded a little weird, but then again, she only woke up 20 minutes ago, she wouldn't be fine until she has some coffee.
"Well, I saw you and Charlie speaking with 3 people in your living room, I couldn't hear, I could only see them. This has never happened before! I couldn't see their faces! Then, all of a sudden, nothing… I can't see anything!" I exclaimed.
"Alice, you really are good. Jake just came up the driveway in the truck with Billy," she said, sounding guilty.
"Oh, ok then. I'll be happy after he has left. Edward will be calling for a check up on you and I would get yelled at if I couldn't see you," I said truthfully.
"Do you want me to call him and let him know Alice? I don't want him taking it out on you," she said, truly concerned.
"No," I said, I didn't ant to waste her limited time with Jake, "I'll tell him you offered to call, though,"
"As long as you are sure that he wont me a little bit mad," she said warily.
"Bella, he loses the plot when he is away from you for any amount of time," I said, "Of course he will scream, rant and there is a possibility of Esme's dining table being destroyed, but that's ok. I think," I said teasingly.
"Alright, you and Esme have fun. Love you and I'll see you all on Sunday," she said.
"Love you too Bella Bye" I said.
"Bye," she said brusquely and hung up.
BPoV
"Well, shit, that was really close," I said, "I forgot about Alice. Thank you Alec!" I yelled from the living room, still sitting in Jace's arms on his lap.
Alec is very unique; he has an extra ability to block attack and powers and to also see into the future.
I stood from Jace's lap and moved towards Iz, Charlie and Alec, who had just moved into the room, "It's cool Ella, Charlie sensed them, and I stopped them.
Charlie also had the same ability as Alec, that's where my power originated and after I bonded with the mortal shield, it made my power even stronger. That is why none of the Volturi could harm me with their powers, "OK, well we better get going. Esme and Alice are only about 2 hours away which means they can get here almost right after we leave and they will try to find me," I said.
I walked up to Charlie and held his hand, "It's OK, kiddo. I know they think of you as a daughter. But, just so you know, you will always be a daughter to me," he said.
"I know dad and I love you most of all," I said sincerely.
I gave him quick hug and turned to Jace, "You better had brought my gear with you, or I'm going to kick your ass, Blondie," I said.
Jace smiled, laughed and picked me up in his arms, giving me another hug and a kiss, "That's my ass kicking Elly-B… oh how I've missed you!" he said.
Jace put me down, moved a piece of hair away from my eyes and reached down beside the couch, pulling out my duffel, my shadow hunter armor and my Seraph Blades. Oh, God, I love my life! I smiled to myself while grabbing my bag and ran up the stairs to change.
Five minutes later, I was ready to kick ass (while looking incredible sexy).
"Well," I said, "I believe we need a door," I skipped to the wall beside the front door and traced my stele, drawing a rune that made a portal to the institute.
I have the Arc Ithuriel's blood in my body, as does Jace. When we were in the womb, Jace's mother and my mother were fed the blood of Arc Ithuriel, which has made us the most gifted Nephilim in history. Part of the reason Edward can smell my scent so sweetly is because he is a vampire, and Angels blood appeals to them more, and with the whole 'singer' thing to top it off, it can become unbearable.
Oh, that reminded me of Edward. What am I going to do about him? I sighed; I really didn't want to think about him right now. I also want to speak with Jake and let him know that he is not a werewolf, but a shape shifter. Shape shifters are much like Shadowhunters, they have been touched by the blessed and they have
The Angel's mark on them, but that will also need to be a conversation for a later date because now, we had to get back to New York.
