Chapter seven - New territory

Everyone looked at Carlisle waiting for him to enlighten them all. Carlisle stayed completely still while he figured the best way to explain it.

"Well don't leave us hanging Carlisle" said Emmet.

"I have to agree!" said Zhalia.

"A mirror" silence fell after Carlisle said those words, no one knew what to say or do. Zhalia tried to process what that meant and entailed and then a thought went through her mind - would her creator want her back now that her gift was known - not that Zhalia would think that anything extra would be a gift. Finally Dante broke the silence.

"So how come she keeps flips between human and vampire?"

"It is part of her power not just mirroring her enemies' gifts but also their state so if she is near a human she can become one."

"Amazing" mumbled Edward.

"Which means it's too dangerous for her to stay here, if the Volturi find out…. we barely escaped last time." Rosalie said angrily.

"Rose!" shouted Esme, Edward cringed he had never heard Esme raise her voice at any one. Before anyone could do anything Zhalia ran from the house into the surrounding forest. She didn't know where she was going she just kept running.

"Alice, where has she gone?" Dante asked Alice, he looked at her filled with hope, that they would easily get her back.

"I don't know I can't see she isn't making any decisions she is just running." Alice replied sadly, she watched as Dante's face fell. Alice grabbed Jasper's hand; he took the sign, and then calmed Dante down.

"What happens if she enters the Quileute territory, she doesn't know of the treaty" asked Emmet.

"I'll ring Jacob" said Bella whipping out her phone, Sophie and Lok had a look of shock from the speed, there were still trying to understand all of this. "Hi Jacob, a female vampire might be running through your territory, she is a new born and a friend, so please don't attack her!"

"I will tell the packs!" He replied

"Thank you Jacob" said Bella. She then ended the call, "he'll let us know if any of the pack sees her"

"Pack of what?" asked Lok.

"Wolves and they are as tall as humans." Alice said. "This also means I won't see her after she makes contact with them."

"But Jacob will tell us about it all" replied Bella.

"True."

"Rose I know you already hate Zhalia because of her ability to switch back to human but next time keep it to yourself." Said Dante, Jasper could not calm him down. Dante never normally got angry, Sophie and Lok started to look worried especially when his seeker aura started to show.

"Dante that is enough" said Carlisle calmly, Dante looked at him, he could see Carlisle's concern, his anger just melted away and his seeker aura vanished.

"You know she will calm down soon and come back" said Lok. Dante was doubtful considering Rosalie's words would be playing round and round in Zhalia's head.

WITH ZHALIA

Zhalia just kept running not knowing where she was going, all she knew was she had to stay away to save those she cared for and Dante's friends. She had must of travelled a good few miles by now so she slowed, knowing none coven had followed her. She then saw something in the corner of her eye lunge at her; she dodged easily and laughed to herself, letting herself slip back into her old organisation mind set of always mess with your opponent but win. It went for her again but Zhalia was so fast it missed her by a mile again. The repeated many times, Zhalia had completely lost track of time, she was having too much fun to the point she still hadn't registered what was attacking her.

"If you two are done fooling around!" said a male voice, Zhalia turned to face the owner of the voice after making sure she had some cover from her attacker.

"Who are you?" Zhalia spat. She then waited for his reply.
