Chapter 3: Lunch Wars

After gym, lunch was next. I was changing in the locker room, and when I got out I was greeted by the pixie Alice. Beside her was Jack, which he felt uncomfortable. The rest of them, they were waiting for each other. I took Jack's arm, and he gladly took mine. It was quite funny actually, he was eager to get out of there just as I was.

" Man, gym was brutal! " He mentally said.

" No kidding"

We made our way to our lockers and dumped our gym clothes in. He took his opaque blood bottle and I took my purse. We made our way to the lunch room, and sat at our regular table. Suddenly the lunch room came quiet and I had to roll my eyes. The Cullen's came in and all students were ogling, glaring or either fanning themselves. It was quite a ridiculous site. Everyone acted like this when there was a new kid. It was the same reaction we had when we had first arrived here. From the corner of my eye I saw Jack smirk, obvious to my thoughts. We were the only ones to be able to read each others thoughts, and the ones around us.

"Here they come" Jack announced.

By the time they arrived they had their trays of human food with them. Ugg! I remember when I had to eat those things, but now the taste is so awful.

"Can we seat here?" Rosalie asked. You know it was actually the first time she was ever nice to me. Bet, she'll have a freak out when she notices its actually me, Bella.

" No kidding" Jack murmured to me. And I chuckled. The Cullen's were still waiting for an answer, and some were confused by our private conversation.

" Do you see any spare seat around the cafeteria?" I retorted. The cafeteria was still quiet. They were intrigued in our conversation because they wanted to know if we were going to say yes to them. Usually we don't allow anyone to sit with us. " So, it looks like you'll have to sit here" I continued.

" Why are you so mean to us Hailey?" Alice asked, while the rest sat at various places at the table. The students in the cafeteria were back to their normal selves after they recovered of their shock. Their shocked that we actually let people sit with us. Some people actually thought the Cullen's were special. Ha! Special right!

I lent on my elbows to the table and faced her. I thought that I was going to say things to them, to make them see how much they have hurt Bella in the past. Of course the old Bella is dead. I'm the new Bella now. I was going to make them see how much it was a pain. A pain to live my life alone. A broken heart. They live their lives full of lies. Thank god I have Jack. But, I wasn't going to reveal myself to them. I want them to think she's dead.

" You see Alice, for many years, we weren't able to trust others. We were avoiding your race. So, now that your here, we are being cautious to our surroundings. And I do believe someone like you and your siblings don't deserve some kindness". I said this while raising my eyebrow, emphasizing my point.

"Edward can you read their minds?" Jasper thought. Edward nodded no.

"Who the hell do they think they are. We don't deserve kindness?" Rosalie mentally seethed anger.

" You can't read our minds Edward". Everyone was shocked, because they realized nobody said anything. Beside me Jack, was grinning and enjoying this little war. " Before you ask us, Jasper you can't either feel emotions from us. And Alice I believe you can't see the future now that were present. Am I correct?" Every one was shocked to say the least.

" How did you know about our powers?" Jasper asked in complete shock.

I lent again on my elbows and said:

" Well you see there are a lot of things I know about you guys. And you see, you cannot use your powers now because they are disabled for the temporary time being"

" Can she do that?" Emmet asked them. Complete amazement.

" Yes we can" Jack answered for the first time, they arrived. He seemed almost proud for what is being unfold because he too hates the Cullen's for what they did to me in my human years.

" Why did you do that?" Alice asked me, she looked sad. Ahh poor her. Ha! Like I will actually feel remorse for her.

" We are protecting each other" I replied

" But we didn't do anything to you" Edward exclaimed. Jack and I we un-lid our bottles and took a swig of our drink. As it opened, they went all rigid, blocking their air ways not to smell the blood.

" Tempting isn't it?" I laughed. " I almost forgot you guys are animal drinkers" I laughed again, boy did I love where this was going. " Yo answer all of your thoughts, we do not drink animal blood. Edward, to answer to your statement earlier. Oh contraire, you actually did something to us. Well, not to Jack but to me. You see, how does it feel to be inferior to others?" I was seething in my sear, and Jack was trying to soothe me, but I was out there. I was still quiet to the human ears. " How do you feel when you cannot use any force or power against that person? How does it feel to have lost Bella Swan?" I finished my speech, and they all gasped simultaneously. Edward looked so sad. Oh well, he needs to know. " Oh, don't feel sad, come on, you're the one who broke her heart, you're the one who said to her you didn't love her, piece of discriminance" I took deep calming breaths and continued. " Look I'm sorry for going off on you, but you deserve every inch of what happened to her"

After I talked, I grabbed my bottle and threw it in my purse and walked out of the cafeteria.

" Wait!!!" I heard. But I kept walking towards my car. Someone grabbed my wist, and I turned around and sighed.

" What Rosalie?"

" What happened to her?" She asked, and she actually seemed saddened and intrigued. I noticed that the Cullen's came out as well, and they were all in the parking lot.

"Jack, I'm going home."

" I'm coming with you"

Jack got to his car and hopped in the driver's seat.

" Like you don't know" I retorted. Edward's features were really heart breaking. I started to feel remorse for him.

" No we don't. We had no contact with her afterwards" Rosalie replied.

" Why do you care?" I asked exasperated.

" Because she is in a way one of us. We love her." Alice replied.

" Well, you should of thought of that before you abandoned her" Then I got into my car, and sped away from the school, leaving them behind. Jack wasn't far behind.

How dare they say they love me? They don't. Edward said those words to me in the forest. The word that shattered my life away. The words that broke my heart.

" It's going to be ok, Hailey" Jack said

" They said they love me. How am I supposed to believe them. They left me to die!"

I started to sob, and it started to be difficult to drive so I pulled up along side the road. Jack pulled up behind me. He came at my door and opened it. He then got me out of the car, and held me tight. He soothed me while I dry sobbed on him. Suddenly, cars drived by and stopped in front of mine and Jack's cars. I instantly knew it was the Cullen's.

I tried my hardest to stop sobbing and succeeded. They acme around us cascading around their shadows. I was backed up on my car, and Jack was instantly in front of me. He knew that once I was enough emotional, my powers were dimmed low, and almost un controllable. Therefore he was protecting me.

" We definitely need to talk" Edward stated for the group. " We'll explain if you explain how the hell you know so much of us".

Jack nodded.

" Follow us" Jasper concluded.

After that they went in their cars and drove. Jack and I went in our cars after making sure I was able to drive. We drove behind them to the unknown destination.

" No matter what will happened we stick together. Our first encounter with vampires in ages. Well after the constant follow up of the Volturi" Jack said.

" Yeah. Forever."

" Forever" He stated with affirmation.

We finally came up to deserted road, hidden behind some trees. We drove up that road and zigzagged our way through to an opening. Geez, this certainly reminds me of their home in Forks. They stopped once reached a big home. (Picture of the Cullen's home available on profile).

" May the explanation begin." I stated to Jack.
