Chapter 7. Take it to the sky, cuz scars are sexy.
Maria's POV.
Wow Jasper has done well for himself is my first thought, this Bella, they will be great... Of course I always new he was bound for nothing but the best greatness or of course I wouldn't have made him who is today. I just hope Bella's a lot more easy going than that Alice was... She gave me the creeps, and that is pretty damn hard to do. Always threats, but ah, she was never his mate, no wonder she was so insecure... Heck before I found my true mate I was always afraid of loosing Jasper, to the point of being vile, some would probably say, but oh hell that's water under the bridge now. Bella has been dressed by jasper I see, she is a jeans and t-shirt gal trapped in sun dresses, hahaha, that's cute... We are so going shopping, she needs some cowboys boots and some cruel girl jeans. She could pull off the whole western look better than us probably, and we are from Texas for crying out loud. She is a young one, but Jasper actually looks happy, I am truly grateful for that, oh I hope she likes me. She needs so good honest corruption in her diet, I wonder if he has taken her to a honky tonk yet? if not I got something in mind, Woo hoo this is gonna be a blast.
"Hey Jasper, Oh Bella you are awesome!" I said as I embraced her in a tight hug!.
"Thanks, you are Maria, I take it ?" Bella asked happily, no threat there, we were going to be gal pals.
"You got it babe, I am Maria, and what the hell kinda get up does Jasp have ya in?" I asked , oh crap my accent came out... Oh well no need to hide it now.
"Well it is a sundress Maria, I am not a fashion diva, I tried to have it stocked with the latest from some Spanish designer's." Jasper cut in with a grin and gave me a light sisterly squeeze... And I noticed Bella didn't mind at all, yes! She was awesome. Alice would have tried to rip my head off saying I was a voodoo queen evil princess or something.
"Gosh dang she don't need a designer Jasper, shes damn hot, we are going shoping later Bella... Promise ? It's time I brought the western out in ya. I mean shoot if your gonna be with a cowboy rebel for eternity, ya might as well dress the part!" I said innocently to her waiting for a response.
"Well hell yeah, and yee haw... " She said with a laugh mocking our twang a lil bit, and gave me a high five.
"Sweetness." I replied with a grin.
With that they lead me into their sitting area and I began my intro of my small lil gang of cowboys, cowgirls and rock stars hehe I couldn't wait to see their faces.
"This is John Lennon." I said as he shook Jaspers hand, and Bella stopped breathing.
"It's alright Bella breathe hun." I said knowing she was shocked at who she was in the company of, but heck she had Jasper, no worries there... These guys I had now just made good tunes, and had a soulfulness I could not let fade with the night, is all.
"This is Janis Joplin" I said as she embraced Bella, and said.. " Don't fret sweet thang, we are all on this winding road together." Bella just said.. "Wow" ... She was a lil cutie I gave her that.
"Of course you know Peter and Charlotte Jasper I said next.." I knew that threw poor Jasp for a loop, we had not parted on good terms those three and I, but that was before I had had my mate. Sheesh I was a power whore in those days.
"And this dude, I said as I grabed my mates arm, and this is my Man, Layne Staley... " I said as I kissed him on the cheek. "That's right Alice N Chains Jasper." I said with a giggle.
"This is.. wow..." Bella murmured quietly, but soon started mingling with the rest of us travelers. At-ta girl, I thought. She was gonna do Jasper proud."
Soon after all the getting to know you's and what not, I let Janis hammer out, "Prophecy TALK NOW." And we all sat in the various seats and what not of their nice villa.
"So as you all know I began, this is a prophecy from long ago." I began making sure everyone was paying attention... Not like I wanted to go to Voltaire with a bunch of know nothing jack asses. You know what I mean.
"Bella was sent for Jasper and it was talked about long ago, that Brother Sun, and Sister moon, would take back our rightful places as angels of death, Grimm reapers, harvester of souls... Aye ya get the drift." We are not bad, we are not evil, we were sent on this earth to help those dying, destroy those that consumed innocents... yeah yeah I know I got a lotta nerve talking about that, but I was blinded and have seen the light. ... Any who... We are going to destroy the Italian leeches and put us back on our rightful track, it is set in stone.... Note Bella and Jasper's eye color.... She is sister moon, he is Brother Sun.... hahaha.. Almost a lil cult sounding there... No pun intended. Now pay attention ya'll wouldn't want to have to whoop some ass. Bella has several gifts.... Jasper has several as well, although his main one is em path, Bella is mainly an em path because to survive they need each other, they mended each other. Sweet ain't it. So... Here is the plan... We need to train... We need to train train train, almost like back in the old days of my own petty wraths. Don't worry I wont be as extreme and pretty much, Jasper is going to lead the way on that... We will strike Italy in exactly... " I was cut of by my mate Layne..
"We will strike Italy in 6 weeks, in the meantime, we are going back to Galvestion to our ranch to practice babe." Layne finished giving me a wink.
"So lets get these love birds packed up and charter plane... We got work to do... Lets GO!" With that I finished. I decided I would talk to Bella a lil alone... She looked like she needed a gal pal, and I was going to be it for her. She deserved a mother figure, so young, and in such a strange new world. Poor sweet thing.
"Jasper you don't mind if I take Bella out to get some uh, comfy yet fashionable clothes do ya?" I asked him, as she was his.
"Of course not Maria, Get her anything she wants, it's on me, as we are mates now." And he handed me his bank card.
"Thanks Jasp, she needs a lil gal time, I think." I said as I grabbed her and lead her to my skyline.
Bella's POV.
As Maria was eager to take me shopping I was glad I was going to get to know her... She was way more my type than the other vampires I had known... But then again they were already foggy from my human memories. I buckled up and she chuckled a bit.
"Safety first, my dads a sheriff." I said innocently.
"It must make ya sad thinking about him Hun, I am sorry... But you have made Jasper so happy, thank you." Maria said sincerely.
"So I am Sister Moon, eh?" I asked her quietly.
"Yes sugar, and you know what, you will be the best leader we ever had." Maria stated.
"What is your roll in all of this?" I was curious.
"Hun, I will most likely parish in that battle, I know it is fact, so will Layne, but we will have all of heaven to enjoy ourselves.... Don't fret now darlin', but I really need you to keep that on the down low... In the mean time, lets make our friendship while we got it rock... Once we get ya back to Texas, we are so going to a honky tonk and rocking out... Vampires can actually drink and get drunk... I discovered this through my other best gal pal Janis... " Maria stated with a huge grin.
"I don't want you to parish, if I can stop that you have to let me, please... " I said knowing she was looking for a way out of this conversation.
"Hun did Jasper ever tell you about my human life ?" Maria asked me slowly.
"No no, not yet... We kinda just got dumped and mended ourselves in each other." I stated honestly.. "Everything has been kind of rushed, but I have dreamed of him since I was a mere child, thank you Maria for seeing his beauty and creating such a perfect man." I answered truthfully.
"Well no problem, he is quite a catch... Although these days I am partial to Layne, but Jasper is and always was bound to be great... Now about my human life... I have four lil kids waiting up there four me, back in those days we got married young , I was fourteen when I wed my husband. Fifteen when I had my first, sixteen, with my second, eighteen with my thirs and twenty with my fourth... As far as I know I only lost one in the war.... So I am betting they are all up there waiting for me, so please don't fret. about it, it is meant to be.... Plus I was a sky reader... I knew of our kind when others thought they were merely a child's night terror. you will set things right, you might get whopped on a little in training, but thats because you need to be strong... We already spoke with other covens... A lot of people are going to help you guys out... But for me... I know the end... And it is how it must be okay Hun... Now in the meantime... Explain why you are such an old soul.... I mean your yound and drop dead sexy, but you have far more wisdom than I had at one hundred. Explain that please Missy." Maria finished and I felt nothing but real friendship from this awesome lady.
"Well my mom and dad were kinda... Well my mom was hair brained, and we lived on a strange human diet because she could never manage money right... And My dad, he has no emotions... I mean he has them, but it was like having a giant sequia for a father... Not very active in my life... So I grew up fast and started being the parent figure to both of them I guess." I stated honestly.
"Well hun, you done make Jasper happy, and for that you will always have a place in my still heart." Maria began as our drive continued. "Your Jasper will make you want to swwon when you see him in a military position, he is just as drop dead sexy as you can dream of... Personally.... You should see him take charge... It made me swoon." Maria said with a smile.
"I bet, I love his over protective nature." I said with a giggle.
"Oh shoot I bet I made you want to blush.." Maria joked.
"Totally got me." I answered honestly.
Finally we were there and Maria was dragging me into a large western outfitter... I was going to make Jasper really swoon for me, and she was going to be sure of that. I got cruel girl jeans and retro western tops galore, that she had me tie up so they exposed my belly... I got snake skin boots, black boots, distressed brown boots, and matching belts, She insisted I get several pairs of fishnets to wear under the ripped jeans to give it a lil bit of sex appeal as she put it. She even got me a straw hat that I has to admit, fit me perfectly... And she surprised me with a belt buckle that was silver had a gold J and B on it in a heart... And another big ole buckle that was aged silver that had a crescent moon on it. Those were her gifts to me and I would cherish them for eternity.
On our way home I realized something, I was the luckiest girl in the world to have made such a wonderful gal pal, and even though our time was limited, I would be forever grateful, how many others get to say forever , and mean it? I can... I was going to win this battle for us all.
Suddenly the car stopped, and she said "oh shit im hungry !" The scent overpowered me as well, even with all my self control... I had to have that... With that we took off to the woods, and had some illegal poachers. Four snooty women that were trying to shoot wolves for coats ! I felt no shame in who I was now, and boy did those people taste good... Plus I always will have a soft place in my heart for wolves... After all I knew some people that came from them.
Hope ya'll like it, the next chapter will be in Jasper's POV on training with Bella lol... Told you it would go where nobody ever thought it would... LOL Enjoy and Review !!! Loves and Huggies =)
