Chapter 4 – Revenge
Darting up a tree, Bella watched Victoria attacking a man. Alice stopped everyone and went up the tree with Bella. They looked at each other and Alice saw the decision Bella made. She would attack alone. As Victoria was complete with her prey, Bella landed behind her. Victoria whipped around and she her. "Bella, how nice it is to see you. Being a vampire works for you." Between her teeth, Bella growled "Yes it does, but not for you." At that, Bella flew into the air and lunged at Victoria. The Cullens watched from the several treetops. Bella caught Victoria by her arm and kicked her in the back, throwing her into the air. Victoria landed on her feet and hissed at her. Bella just smiled at her, leaning into a crouch. Victoria lunged at Bella, but she just stepped out of the way and waved to her from a top of a boulder. Victoria ran towards Bella with her teeth bared, but Bella smacked Victoria across the opening with the back of her hand. Victoria jumped to her feet, and lunged at Bella again, but she got out of the way. Bella stood on the other side of the field, with her back to her. "Maybe, you're too old for this. Should I make this easier for you?" Bella stood very still as Victoria ran towards her and got her arms around Bella's body. Victoria threw Bella against a tree, knocking it down. Victoria heard a growl above her and she saw them. The Cullens glared down at her; this distracted Victoria from her fight. Bella took the advantage and swiped at Victoria, ripping her arm off. Victoria screamed in pain. Bella enjoyed the sound and swiped at Victoria again, taking off her leg. She laid on the ground, hissing at Bella. "The arm was for Jacob, the leg was my father," Bella declared, leaning closer to Victoria. Swiping again, she took off Victoria's head. "That was for them." She stood above the dismembered body, with the head in her hand. Bella took the head between her hands and crushed it. "And that was for me," as she let the pieces fall to the ground. Bella stood over her creator, her enemy and sighed. She was happy; she had her revenge and she enjoyed it. Jasper and Emmett fell from the trees. Jasper began collecting the pieces and started a fire, while Emmett put his arm over Bella's shoulders. "You looked like you had a little too much fun." Bella let out a laugh, something she had not done in a long time. She looked at Emmett and nodded "I did."
Alice jumped down in front of Bella. "You almost gave me a heart attack when you let her get her arms around you." Smiling, Bella said, "You're not the only one who is psychic. I knew if I let her do something to me, you would respond to that, distracting her, which would allow me to finish her." "For a newborn, you really got your head on right." Emmett teased. Carlisle walked to Bella's side and took her hand. "Will you tell us what happened? What led to this?" She looked up at him, meeting his gaze and smiled sheepishly. "Can we do this another time? I really need to go hunting and I have to study." "Study?" Rosalie asked. Bella looked at her "Yeah. I'm enrolled at the University and if I want to graduate next week, I need to study." With that, Bella ran into the forest and hunted.
