Disclaimer: I am not the owner of Twilight. I'll leave the real series to my favorite author Stephenie Meyer; she's doing a great enough job
Thanks to those who sent me their review and idea's. You (the readers) were actually a nice source of inspiration. I hope you enjoy where I go from here.
"Please excuse me, Mrs.…Cullen", she said the last part as if it left a dirty taste in her mouth. "I might as well be honest. Sooner or later Edward's going to read my intentions anyway. Besides, mind blocking is a job in itself. You don't deserve Edward. I've heard about you. You're a naïve little thing who can barely stand on her own. I don't know what Edward sees in you. He needs a real woman…figuratively".
"Who do you think you think you are you wannabe home wrecking bitch?"

"If you think you're able to stop me I dare you to try"
Right then I wanted to shred through her chest with one blow. I wanted to snap her neck in the middle if the forest so everything around could hear what I did. I need to make an example of her. "If you think you're going to just walk into Edwards's life and mess up what has taken us years to build, you're going to pay".
"I hope you don't mind your death as a deposit". That was the last straw.
I had never to curl my lip and bare my teeth to anyone. I was on all fours like a lioness ready to attack in the African jungle. Sure enough, I was growling like one to. Whenever Edward did this I wanted to tell him to calm down and breath. I don't think I'll be doing that anymore. Before my inner monologue could voice the opinions of my conscience I lunged at Tanya. "Oh no, I'm heading for the…" It was too late. I crashed through the kitchen wall. I heard an irritating giggle outside. I looked back to see Tanya floating in mid air. "I can't believe I used my own power against myself". I must have wanted her to be thrown somewhere at the same time I attacked.
"So that's your power. You're telekinetic. Edward must have been waiting to tell me about this". That's it, she has to die.
I stood straight and walked back onto to the porch. I lowered Tanya from the air and set her on her feet. I focused on her eyes and she on mine. The air touched every inch of my scalp as my hair whipped through the wind. I'd never felt so aware before. Then it occurred to be. Yes I'm a vampire, but I've always been an intellectual, not a fighter.
Tanya still had a smug look on her face. I know how to get rid of it. I focused on her body. Her hands locked to her sides and her feet stuck together as if they were bound.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING? EDWARD WOULD NOT-" I forgot to force her mouth closed. I'm sick of her using my husband's name.
With that I stretched out my hand. Tanya's petite neck glided to my hand as though it wanted to be there. I clenched my hand around if with an unfamiliar feeling of satisfaction. "If you were smart you would have done your homework. You would have known that I've only been a vampire for seven months. Therefore I'm still a newborn. I have a strength you will never attain again". I could feel my human blood coursing through my veins. So this is what it is like to be feared, to be looked at as a monster. Tanya would have cried like a child if she a human.
"Bella stop"
I looked to the side and saw my husband with authority and compassion in his eyes. "Edward I gave up everything for you. I still would if the Vulturi hadn't forced me. Think Edward. My family and everyone who ever knew me…ARE THEY TO SUFFER IN VAIN FOR HER?"
"No. You know that I would never leave you for anyone. Don't you trust me?" Edward looked into my eyes. He touched a place in my heart that I had forgotten about for a few minutes.
"I trust you with all my heart, but I can't say the same for her". I looked back into Tanya's eyes. They were still full of fear. "Please don't hate me Edward", I raised my free hand as my fingers shook. Edward rose from his feet, and was bolted to the wall.
"Bella I know how you feel. Remember that before I met you I was the exact same way. If I was able to stop being the monster that I was, I doubt YOU ever have to be one. Its okay sweetheart. You have options". Now I'm just confused. I don't know what to do. If I let her go, I might let go of my life. If I carry this out, Edward might not ever forgive me.

The look in Bella's eyes never scared me as they did now. They were red and hungry. The sky is dark; there are bolts of lightning. I have NEVER been so helpless. I've had more power than this as a human. Wait…is that who I think it is? Good, they can talk some sense into her.
"Bella I know how you feel. Remember that before I met you I was the exact same way. If I can was able to stop being the monster that I was, I doubt YOU ever have to be one. Its okay sweetheart. You have options".
"He's telling the truth Bella. There will be worse days. I promise". Alice's soothing voice was music to my ears. She, Jasper and Carlisle walked to Bella's side to be in her peripheral vision.
I looked at Jasper. What took them so long? "Alice got the vision about 45 minutes after you and Bella left. We came as soon as we could." The atmosphere became calmer, almost warmer.
"Don't let her ruin everything you've built with Edward"
"ARE YOU ON HER SIDE CARLISLE? YOU WANT HER IN YOUR FAMILY?"
"Bella you know nobody could ever replace you"
I finally begin to feel Bella's grip loosen up from me. I slowly slid down the wall, landing on the floor I learned to appreciate having under my feet. Tanya's face was a mix of confusion and fear. I walked over to Bella gradually. "Bella, I will never ever leave you for anyone".
"The first time you left me Edward I wanted to die. That was when I was human. I can't take the thought of not being near you know"
"You won't ever have to", I held her face in my hands and kissed her. I kissed her long enough, until she was guaranteed of Tanya not being any competition. Tanya's body began to lower to the floor. Her neck slid from Bella's grasp; Bella's fingers lightly brushed Tanya's face.
"I love you Edward. I know you'll never go, but I never forgot. The memories of you being gone never faded. When your not around they still hurt"
"I'm sorry", she allowed me to embrace her, holding her arms.
"Edward, can you honestly say you never felt anything for me?" She is unbelievable. I had no time to waste focusing on her. Tanya almost ruined my family.

I can't believe it. He didn't even look at me. All these years I thought he didn't pay me attention because he had some type of wall of fear, fear of love. I stared in disbelief. "He said he would always be there for…me". The words barely came out in a whisper.
"He meant that as a friend". Jasper was staring at me with his arms folded. Who is he to judge me? "You knew that. You have no business here. Go home and don't return unless you're requested back."
"If you ever cause my sister pain like this again, I'll make you suffer". I guess Alice is against me too.
"I never thought in a million years that any of you would turn against me"
"Don't be such a victim Tanya. You know we're allies, but what you did is wrong. You know that. You came here with intent of stirring trouble. You got what you came here for, just not in the form you expected" Carlisle was half right. The thing is that I never saw it as breaking up a couple. I should be taking what's mine.
I looked Edward once more. His back was facing me. I've never felt so humiliated. That's okay. I have a backup plan for all of them.
"Fine, I'll go. But I first want you to understand this". Edward knew I was referring to him. He turned to face me with eyes as black as coal. "How dare you lead me on in Denali. YOU'RE A COLD HEARTED LIAR". That was all I needed him to hear before I took of into the night.

This was the craziest day of my life. When I looked up from Edward's embrace, Tanya was gone, hopefully for good. Edward carried me inside before he went back out to talk to Carlisle, Jasper, and Alice. Times like this I miss being able to sleep. I'll just close my eyes and pretend for now. Just as I was becoming less aware of my never fading consciousness the living room smelled like candy. "Sit next to me".
"How are you doing?"
"I'm fine, yet embarrassed".
"You don't have to be embarrassed". If it were up to Edward I never would have a reason to feel embarrassment.
"Edward I cannot believe I let her get to me like that. I should have used more self-control".
"You're new at this. Give yourself a chance to get used to having a power. Don't forget that you were human very recently"
"I know. Still, I'm too old too let stupid things like that control me"
"The only reason it was so noticeable this time was because you have a power that is sensitive to your emotions. Everyone acts out. The only thing that sets you apart is your emotional state will be slightly more visible until you learn to control your new ability"
"I never thought of it that way….well…what do I do know"
"Well, Alice did say how much she misses having you around. I think your little accident was a perfect excuse for the kitchen to be remodeled"
We both through our heads back into the plush couch and laughed until we felt human.
I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Remember, I'm always open to suggestions. Please R&R and have a nice day.
