Everyone stared at Alice. "What?" Willow said. "Jane must of seen me right before we left." Alice explained. "I've got to get out of here." Willow said, heading towards the door. "You can't just go out there alone!" Bella said, trying to stop her. "Watch me." Willow said, pushing her way out the door. "Wait, you can absorb powers right?" Bella asked her. Willow turned around. "Yeah." She said slowly. "Then take some of ours." Bella suggested. "Yeah, then you'll at least have a lesser chance of dying." Emmett said enthusiastically. Rosalie shot him a look. "Here." Bella said, holding out her hand. Willow took it. The trance like state fell over both of them for a few seconds and then lifted. Willow tested it out. A shield flew out around them.
Edward walked up to Willow next. Willow took his hand and received his gift. She could suddenly read everyone's mind. Alice came up next. Willow absorbed her power. Lastly, Jasper gave her his gift. "I guess I should go now." Willow said, heading off.
"Willow, we can make you stronger. We have friends with more gifts. You could be almost invincible." Carlisle called after her. Willow stopped and turned around. "You would only have to stay a few more days, 2 at the least." He said, urging her to stay. "Won't the Volturi come here if I stay?" Willow asked, walking back over towards him. "If they do, you and Alice will see them coming." Carlisle said, putting a hand of her shoulder. "OK, but I'm leaving as soon as I'm strong enough." Willow declared, walking with Carlisle back to the others.
Carlisle notified Kate, Benjamin, and Zafrina because their gifts would be the most useful. Kate and Benjamin arrived that day. Carlisle explained to them what was going on and they both agreed to give Willow some of their gifts. After the transfers had been completed, Willow was taken out into the yard to try them.
"Just, focus and let the current run over your skin." Kate said to Willow who nodded. Edward came up, touched her arm, and jumped back. "She did it." He said, shaking his hand to get rid of the numb feeling. "Alright, my turn." Benjamin said, stepping up beside Willow. "All you have to do is feel whatever element you want, and force it out." He coached. Willow nodded again and closed her eyes. "Alright, go." Benjamin said, lighting a match. Willow put her hand up and the match turned into a huge ball of flames. Willow sent it flying around, making it bigger, then smaller and then finally extinguishing it. "Nice." Benjamin said approvingly. Willow smiled at him.
Zafrina made Willow see a great waterfall in a distant rainforest. "OK, now you try." Zafrina encouraged. Willow looked at her and made her see a sunny street in Los Angeles. "Great job." Zafrina said, standing up. Willow tipped her head back to stare up at the tall woman. The Amazon vampire was really tall. Willow stood up from the couch too, but Zafrina still towered over her.
"Well, I guess that's it then." Willow said, facing the Cullens. Benjamin, Zafrina, and Kate had all departed hours earlier. None of the Cullens tried to stop her because they knew their was no changing her mind. Alice ran up to Willow and hugged her. "Be careful O.K.?" Alice whispered in her ear. Willow nodded. Jasper came up next. He gave her a hug and patted her on the back. Willow gave him a small smile. Edward, Bella, and Renesmee walked up to Willow and surrounded her in a huge embrace. Renesmee put her hands on Willow's face. "I'll miss you too kiddo." Willow told her. Renesmee smiled and then turned to Edward. After a few seconds Edward looked at Willow. "Nessie wants to know if you would take some of her gift." Edward told Willow, who smiled at Renesmee. "Renesmee that's very nice of you. I would love that." Willow told the little girl. Renesmee held out her little hand and Willow took it. "Thanks." Willow said.
Emmett came up and bear hugged Willow. "Go kick some Volturi a** newborn." He told Willow, who grinned up at him. Rosalie came up to Willow. "Just watch out, you're only a kid." Rosalie told her, putting a hand on her shoulder. "I will." Willow told her.
The past day, Willow had learned thanks to Edward's gift, why Rosalie acted so sad around her. Willow felt bad that she made Rosalie feel so sad, but there was nothing she could really do about it.
After Carlisle and Esme said goodbye, Willow headed off into the forest.
