Last Chapters Summary- Bella appears again, and kills Maria, saving Jasper and Peter from her, but Charlotte and her mate have gotten away.

Esme's POV

Everyone had gone hunting, with the exception of Jasper, who was off at the location Isabella had given him. Although I haven't met this human, I know I will like her, she has earned my most troubled son's trust, so in my books she's already family. I'm so happy that's she's human, I get to cook for someone after all these years. What to make? I hummed as I looked through the full stocked fridge.

"A green apple if you have one."

I yelped in shock as I spun around, already in a crouch to defend myself. The owner of the voice was a very amused looking and very beautiful human girl, sat on the counter in front of me, her ankles crossed. Silently I passed the girl, who I presumed was Isabella a green apple from the bowl beside the fridge, placing the juicy fruit in the girl's small hands. Isabella shocked me; she had this aura of control and collectiveness, yet she is the epitome of male's fantasies. Mahogany hair down to the middle of her back, ample breasts with a super small waist and curvy hips and derriere, with delicate small figures that screamed innocence, but onyx eyes that were mischievous and glinted maliciously in the artificial light of the kitchens lights. Truth be told, I felt insecure about myself, and I'm a vampire, the meaning of perfect! Though she is no threat, I feel I need to mark Carlisle again, almost as if I need to stake a claim that he's mine. Its like she's not even human!

"I'm not." Isabella said, as if hearing my inner ramblings, making me look at her curiously, peering at her as if I there was some badge stating her species. Isabella snorted, "I don't have a badge, though that might be a good thing to invest into in the future, but I'm a witch if it helps."

I nodded, moving away slightly, having heard some horrible things about witches throughout the vampire community. I'm not sure Carlisle would appreciate a witch in our house, as he was a pastors son while he was human. Isabella looked at me as if I was insane, no doubt from knowing my thoughts.

"I don't know your thoughts Esme, I'm a witch. Despite what you have heard from Aro," Isabella spat his name out like she had tasted something foul, before continuing. "Witches aren't evil like you have heard, we don't go around like serial killers waving around chainsaws and decapitating vampires like the tales say we do. I'll explain.

Overall there are only 60 witches left now, and there are three categories of witches, 20 witches in each category. The first type of witches are the slaves or Slargrn, witches who work in the higher ranked witches homes, cleaning, cooking and bending to every will of their master. The second category are the healers or Charren, they can heal any illness known to any species, sometimes witch healers sense a good soul in pain and heal them, when this happens, humans call it a miracle. The last type is the Dragnir; they are basically made up of old witch families, whose descendents go back to the dawn of time. I thankfully, don't belong to any category, I am the first witch to ever be banished, and will be the last one in history, they made a rule no witches could be banned just imprisoned after they banished me." Isabella explained, her small face resting in a dainty hand, her elbow resting on her knee. Perplexed at why she would be banished, I had to ask what she had done to deserve it.

"Why did you get banished?"

"I have cursed gifts. Premonition, element and emotional manipulation." Isabella explained, no doubt seeing my confused look when she said cursed gifts. " Those three gifts got me stoned, starved within an inch of my life, then burnt at the stake until I nearly died, was healed then placed in prison for thirteen days before being banished with nothing but my familiar and a pair of clothes my ladies maid hid in the forest for me." Isabella said, taking a bite from her apple, the juice running down her chin, her light pink tongue darting out from her crimson lips to lick the juice away before hopping down of the counter, leading me out to the front porch. "Your family have passed my borders, they will be here soon." Isabella said calmly, taking another bite from her apple, licking away the sweet smelling juice from her lips, nodding to the forest where five sets of topaz eyes were concealed by the shadows, impossible for a human to see. Well I guess Isabella isn't human, so anything is possible for her.

"How did she see us?" I heard my bear of a son whisper shout to my mate, who was looking between Isabella and myself rapidly.

"I don't know." Carlisle murmured, his eyes lighting up, no doubt from him hoping to examine Isabella.

"I didn't see her talk to Esme, why?" Alice mumbled, rubbing her temples, her facial expression frustrated.

Isabella sighed, taking another bite from her apple, her eyes sparkling with mirth, the sound of boulders slamming together from the forest alerted me to the forest where my mate and family were still 'hidden.'

"What the fuck!" Alice screeched, looking at her hair where chunks of apple was smothered over its inky locks, the apple core had seemed to appear out of no where, the only indication the apple core had even been thrown was the fact it hit Rosalie with such a massive force..

I turned my attention to Isabella whose eyes that had turned to amethyst flooded with black, her apple nowhere in sight. I contained my chuckles at seeing my future seeing pixie daughter's distress over her hair and called my family from the forest, a cream and grey wolf loping from the forest behind them, a fact that seemed to shock my family. I looked out of the corner of my eye to Isabella, who shook her head, patting the wolfs head softly, murmuring something too low for even vampire ears to hear, which was a extreme feat. Jasper and Peter came barreling out of the forest from the west, Peter immediately running over to Isabella running his hands over her form, looking for any injuries, ignoring Isabella trying to slap his hands away. Isabella tried to pull away, stopping when a feral growl came from Peter, staying silent as Peter finished checking for injuries, before moving back, the wolf moving in front if her, its muscles rippled underneath the surface, coiled to spring if needed. Peter had a slight smug smirk on his face, Jasper was trying not to chuckle at Alice screeching at her hair, Alice was infuriated, Emmett was bent over at the waist laughing at Alice's misfortune, Rosalie had a ghost of a smirk on her lips as did Edward, while my mate was looking at Isabella with calculating eyes.

What a weird family I have!

Outside POV

After Esme had told the Cullens and Peter Isabella's story, as the girl herself had gone silent, her eyes closed and her index fingers placed on her wolfs temples, both completely still. Jasper observed his second in command, who was watching Isabella's still form with a blank expression, though his eyes and emotions were showcasing love. Peter was happy to know that his mate allowed him to make sure she had no injuries, though the captain had come out slightly, growling at her to stay still while he continued his ministrations, though his gift was telling him she would be on her guard to make sure he couldn't get that close to her again for a while. Jasper knew that Isabella and he would become great friends, which was shocking in the least, as he did not normally let anyone except Alice and Peter close to him. Isabella appeared on his lap, straddling him slightly as she placed her index fingers on his temples, amethyst staring into topaz. The memories of his times in the Southern wars flashed in his mind, running through every aspect of the life he had back then, the memories being copied from his mind to Isabella's, who had closed her eyes under dealing with such images, before disappearing from his lap back to her seat by the windows, her index fingers on her own temples this time as she spoke.

"This man from your Past, Juan joined the Volturi and is trying to convince them to kill Jasper and Peter, though the Volturi are thinking about it, they respect Carlisle too much to hurt Jasper, and by association Peter. Though if someone does something bad, they decide to attack…"Isabella trailed off, her black eyes flooding with amethyst and went unfocussed for a second, before an enraged expression crossed her face and she turned to Alice. "Tell me the impossible and say truthfully that what I saw in Canada was wrong Alice." Isabella spat out, moving to stand in front of the pixie like female vampire, who cowered slightly in her seat and started to dry sob.

"Leave her alone!" Jasper growled out, moving to stand in front of his mate, baring his teeth at Isabella, only for her wolf to jump in front of his master, baring his own teeth, which sharpened as a growl rumbled in his chest.

"Your mate" Isabella sneered the word mate mockingly, before continuing. "Created an immortal child just so she could dress it up!" Isabella shouted enraged, glaring at Alice over Jasper's shoulder, her onyx eyes glinting murderously.

"What?" Jasper breathed out in shock, straightening from his crouch and moved to stand next to Isabella, staring at his mate with guarded eyes and a guarded expression. Alice sobbed and shook her head, tugging at her short hair nervously as she continued to sob.

"Tell them how old she is Alice, tell them how you saw he when you went shopping thought she was perfect and killed her parents in front of her and then changed her and chained her to a wall in the basement of your home in Canada with chains made from titanium and vampire ashes. She's five Alice!" Isabella shouted, enraged that she would even dare to try and change a child that young.

Jasper was stunned that his wife could be so stupid as to change a girl so young, and acted so evil. Not even Maria, the evil bitch that she was brought in girls under the age of 21 to be drained or changed, and here his wife was, turning a five year old and then chaining her to a wall in the basement. All around him his family were shouting at Alice for being so stupid, except Isabella who took his hand and led him outside and sat down on the porch steps, Jasper sitting down beside her. Remembering part of Isabella's rant, Jasper turned to the beautiful girl next to him, though he had a mate he couldn't deny Isabella wasn't hot, before asking his question.

"During your rant, why did you sneer the word mate when you were talking about Alice and I?" Jasper asked Isabella, leaning back on his palms and turned his head to look at her, only to see she wasn't looking at him but at the sky.

"Despite the fact the Major hates Alice with a loathing and will never except Alice as his mate, she is your mate." Isabella said, making sure to emphasis on the word your, before continuing. "But there will be a time when the Major and Jasper will become one person and at that time, which I feel coming soon, you will realize something and when that happens, the Major and Jasper will merge together completely." Isabella prophesied, before placing a kiss on Jasper's cheek and walking back into the house.

A/N: As you can probably guess now my Isabella wont just bow down to Peter and become his eternal slave like some mates are in other stories, which pisses me off severely. Peter will have to work for Isabella's trust and love, and it certainly wont be easy with her slightly bi-polar emotions.

Questions of the day-

(1) What do you think causes Jasper and the Major to merge?

(2) What do you think Jasper will realize?
