Recap:
"You're in, um, Forks Washington." Edward answered.
She looked at him with a shocked expression "What?!
Chapter 3
All the Cullens looked at her with confusion. She put her head in her hands to calm down. It was silent for a while. No one knew what to say. Melinda began feeling awkward around the people she just met. The awkward silence was killing her. The silence was broken by Carlisle when he cleared his throat.
"Yes, you are in Forks, Washington." She turned to look at him. "You're not from here, are you?"
She shook her head. "No." She took a deep breathe before she talked. "Um, how did I end up here?" she asked.
"We don't know, you sort of landed on our front door." Emmett answered. "You landed with a big thud. I'm surprised you're still alive. Funny thing is, no one was around. So we don't know how you ended up here."
"Do you remember what happened?" Carlisle asked. "Do you remember where you were? We can help you. Also, we would like to know where your from. That way we can help you."
She looked at sincerely and gave him a little smile. "I don't think its anything you can help me with. But I'm from San Francisco." She looked at everyone.
"In California?" Esme asked. Melinda nodded. "That's pretty far. What were you doing before you came here? You were pretty hurt. Trust me we can help. We want to."
She gave a small laugh. "You don't want to know what I've been through. Its complicated. And you cant really help me. This is something I need to figure out on my own. Besides, I can't have vampires help me."
Melinda felt the room tensed. She looked at everyone in the room. All eyes were on her.
She chuckled. "What? You didn't think I knew? Trust me, I can spot a vampire a mile away. It's not that hard if you know what to look for."
"It took her only an hour to figure out what we were." Emmett exclaimed. He looked at Melinda. "You're not a vampire hunter, are you?"
She laughed. "I am a hunter, but not of vampires."
"Okay, you know what we are," Edward said. "So what are you? We know you're not human. You don't smell human. Yet you look like one. Tell us right now who you are."
"Fine. You want to know? I'll tell you. Like I said I'm Melinda Halliwell." She started. "And I'm a witch. A powerful witch." She paused.
"You want us to believe that you're a witch?" Rosalie sneered. "I don't believe you. Prove it. Just because you don't smell human, doesn't mean I can simply believe you."
"You want prove. I'll give you proof." she looked around the room thinking about what to do. "I got it. Could I have somebody's help. Preferably someone fast."
"Edward's the fastest." Alice said.
Melinda looked to Edward and he looked back at her and stood up from the couch. "Would you be willing to help me?"
"What would I have to do?"
"It's simple really. All you have to do is charge at me the fastest you can."
"I don't want to hurt you. I mean--"
"You wont hurt me," she cut in off. "Besides, I've done worst than this." He looked at her as if he was asking her to explain. "I've been stabbed I don't know how many times, I've been killed before, I've have my powers taken away from me. What else is there? Oh, yes, I've been by energy balls and fire balls."
"How'd you managed to be alive?" he asked.
"My eldest brother, Wyatt, he has the power to heal," she answered. "But that's because he is half whitelighter. So is my other brother Chris, but he cant heal."
"What is a whitelighter?" Carlisle asked.
"Um, sort of like a guardian angel," she explained. "but for witches and future whitelighters. See, when a person does good in they're life they are given a gift. It gives them immortality. They can live forever. Its given to them by the elders. They are a like a council. They know everything from the good and the evil. But I'm not fond of the elders right now."
"Are you one?" Alice asked.
"No, I'm not. I'm just a full witch."
"Then how is that you brothers are half whitelighter and your not."
"My dad used to be a white lighter, then an elder, then a avatar- don't asked me what a avatar is. I don't know what it is. My dad never talks about it. Then he fell from grace and became a human. I was conceived when he was human."
"How did your father become a whitelighter? Jasper asked.
"My father is originally from World War II. He was a medic. I remember him telling me that a couple of soldiers were missing. So my dad went to the battle ground to fund those soldiers, but he didn't make it. The elders came to him offered him to become. He accepted it. And then he met my mom. When they first started it was very complicated. You see, it's forbidden for witches to be with whitelighters, but my parents fought to be together. They didn't give up. They proved to the elders that whitelighters can get married and have children. The elders let them be together." From there Melinda explained everything about her family from Melinda Warren to the power of three. Her mom and aunts. Her aunt Prue and aunt Paige.
"Wow your family been through a lot." Alice said. "I can only imagine."
"Now, I need to get out of here. I need to find my brothers. I need to figure out who sent me here."
"What if they orbed somewhere?" Esme asked.
Melinda shook her head, "No. they disappeared before me. This is obviously a demon. And I wont rest until I find out who it is. And when I find out who separated my brothers and I, they're going to be sorry. Because I will kill them!" She got so angry that she blew up a vase making everyone look at her. She made a small laugh. "Sorry."
"Remind me never to get on your bad side." Emmett said chuckling.
"I noticed," Jasper started. "Your anger shot up when that vase blew up."
"well," she explained. "Our powers are base on our emotions. So when I got angry my power slipped. Are you an empath."
"Somewhat."
"My brother, Chris, is an empath. It gets kind of annoying. No offence."
"None taken. They get annoyed by it." he said gesturing towards his family.
"so does anyone else has a special talent?"
"Well," Alice said. "I can see the future and Edward can read minds."
"Interesting."
"So what are you powers?" she asked.
"well, as you can see blow up things and freeze things. I also have the power of premonition. I can conjure, I have telekinesis, and I also have telepathy with my brothers."
"What is that?"
"My brothers and I have a bond so we talk to each with our minds. It helps a lot, especially when we're fighting demons."
"That's awesome. You must be pretty powerful." Emmett said.
"Thanks, but I'm not as powerful as my brother Wyatt, he's twice blessed."
"Still its pretty awesome to have powers."
"Thanks"
