CHAPTER 6

Bella

I was sitting on the bar stool near the kitchen island drinking a cup of tea. Maps of different countries spread about the island. I needed to decide on a place to move on to next. Last night's dream had pushed me to come to this decision sooner. It was definitely a warning. The declaration 'We will be back' made by the vampire when I met them six months back clearly ringing in my head. Where would I go now? Rang through my head. I look around the cabin, it had become a solace for me from the constant running. Since my encounter with those vampire I was on run. I was not supposed to keep on running from place to place. There was a plan set on how to go about but it had gone to hell when I had encountered those vampires. I had stayed here the longest since I ran. The constant moving is getting to me and was making me tried. Moreover I can't handle the changes which are taking place in my body. Due to my constant emotional state my shield tends to come out even at the slightest on set of strong emotions. I'm trying my damnedest to control them but it is quite a fit in itself. I have also noticed that I don't trip much now.

Before the whole running off after the vampire encounter. I had met three vampires. I have come to accept that I'm some sort for magnet for supernatural. Those three vampires were responsible for me leaving Forks. It was more like one of them had kidnapped me in the middle of the night. Those vampires were Peter and Charlotte Whitlock and Garrett (don't know his surname). Peter, that man was something else. He tends to behave like Yoda the all-knowing shit (his mate Charlotte's words not mine). I had wanted to wait till Charlie's funeral and then leave Forks but Peter had other plans. He had sent Garrett to kidnap me. At that time I didn't know he was a vampire who was there to help me. I can never forget meeting them as it had brought new things to light.

I had cried myself to sleep after finding my dad dead. I had got up in the middle of the night feeling thirsty. As I was about to get a glass of water, I felt a strong gush of wind coming from a window and saw a figure standing in my room. Now known as Garrett, at that time I thought Victoria had sent her companion to do her bidding. Before I could let out a scream he had placed chloroform containing cloth over my mouth and I lost consciousness. When I came back to my senses I thought I would be in some sort of torture but I found myself in a comfortable bed. Later on I met Peter and Charlotte. Garrett had apologized for kidnapping me. He had tried to lighten mood my saying that had the situation not been so dire he would have loved to stay and would have taken me out on date. They explained me why they had to kidnap me.

Peter then had informed me about his gift though he doesn't call it gift. He told me that it was necessary to kidnap me as I wouldn't have readily left with them. That it is was necessary for Garrett to be the one to kidnap me or else Jasper would have found his or Charlotte's scent and would have demanded to know my whereabouts. He let me know that Garrett was able to go undetected by pack as he used trees to travel and was careful to not let the wind carry his scent towards them. Though they would find his scent later on in my room but wouldn't be able to track him. He also informed me that most of the pack was absent as new member's had phased. He then proceeded to tell me his history. How Jasper was his sire and he had created him on Maria's demand to fight in Southern wars for feeding lands. How he became friends with Jasper and soon became his second in command. How together they trained newborns, executed them when their worth was over in a year. How Maria would reward them when they performed the given task and torture them when they failed to follow her commands. How they soon became brothers. How he kept hidden from Jasper that Charlotte was his mate as Maria didn't allow mated pairs in her army. How he had almost attacked Jasper when he was going to execute Charlotte when her newborn year was up. How Jasper had helped him escape and later on suffered Maria's wrath. How he had returned and helped Jasper escape from Maria. How they had started to feed from the bad guys. How they tried to convince Jasper to join their diet but it becoming too much for him because of the feelings of his victims. How he later went on his own and then met Alice and the rest.

He then told me the reason behind the kidnapping. How Alice finding about Victoria's army would have brought the Cullens back to Forks. How in my depressed state I would have taken Edward back in my life thinking that I had no one in my life. Him controlling me and turning me into his complete pet in short. How the family would have been helpless and mistaking my acceptance with Edward as my love for him. How it would have completely destroyed my self-worth and life too and would have kept me from my destiny and my true love. The most shocking was not I had true love waiting for me, it was that Charlotte is my great something grandmother on my father's side. I know right. What a small world. When Edward was absent for three days in school and I was new in Forks, Charlotte and Peter had once been there and she had felt a pull towards my home. When she had set to come there along with Peter, Edward had stopped them thinking they were coming after me to feed. Peter's knower let him know that Charlotte needed to search for her family history to know more about the pull and they had left Forks immediately. They had to dig up a lot and when they found about us being her descendant, it was too late. My parents were already killed and Peter's knower didn't let him know about this sooner. But as soon as Peter had got to know that my life was in danger they set the plan to kidnap me. And that's how I had met them.

Later on Peter had informed me that Victoria won't be the only one who would search for me. That it was necessary to move away from Forks and take on a new identity. He also let me know that many things would come to light and that I should trust only those who my instincts tell me to trust. He said that there was a plan set up for Victoria and her army to stay away from me. He also informed me that he would inform Jasper of the plan but won't tell him about my whereabouts and me being Charlotte's descendant.

Initially when I was kidnapped we were still in Seattle. We had decided to go to Peter's place in Dallas, Texas where it was sunny and chances of any vampires finding me there would have been less. But we were not going to directly go there. We had decided on a flight up to Denver, Colorado. Then stay a few days in a house which Peter owned there and then go to Dallas via road. Also we had set up a false trail by buying tickets to two more places and me actually going till the gates of those flight. The Whitlocks and I had arrived at the airport at different times so no one would connect us being together. But we never made it to Dallas. We had reached Colorado without any hitch and were staying in one of Peter's homes in the middle of nowhere but it was there when I had discovered my shield for the first time.

Flashback

I had been restless since the day we arrived in Colorado. There was this feeling coursing through me that something was about to happen and I wasn't wrong on that. I had taken a random bus from Denver airport and had got down in the middle. Peter was following that bus and had carried me from there towards the house. It had been a week since we arrived here. Peter and Charlotte had now gone out for hunting leaving me alone in the house. They had waited for a long time to hunt and wanted to hunt before we left to Dallas for the next day. My restlessness had increased so I had decided to go on for a small walk in woods near the house. I wished I had stayed in the house only. I had not even stepped out of the porch when I felt a gust of wind and felt the hairs on my neck stand. I felt a cold body pressed against my back and holding me firmly to it.

"Mmm… you smell so divine. I have never come across such a tantalizing smell in my entire life." I heard an accented male voice whisper in my ear bringing me even closer to himself.

Feeling of cold hands on me and the comment made by the stranger definitely indicated that he was a vampire. I felt fear course through my body. I had tried to move in the vampires hold to get a look at him. I definitely hoped he isn't Victoria's companion/minion. The vampire turned me around and I got a glimpse on him in the available porch light. He looked like all the vampires, exceptionally beautiful. On closer inspection he had tall bulky body with dark-colored skin which had the unmistakable chalky pallor that all vampires have. He had black dreadlocks which were tied up. He was wearing some sort of black cloak. When I looked closer to his face, I saw his eyes turning to black and his face turning into a lustful expression .Great he is thirsty now.

"My, my not only is your blood divine but you truly are a beauty. I know your blood will taste like the sweetest dessert with that tantalizing aroma it has. I imagine how you would taste like in other places. I'm going to thoroughly enjoy having you. I think I might even keep you for a while." He said bring me closer to him and smelling along the column of my neck. A shiver of disgust ran through me when I caught the meaning behind his words. I didn't want to be anywhere near him and I tried to free myself from him even tough knowing it will be futile.

"Finish the human already Santiago! We have better work to do. Stop playing around and get on it already" said a bored childlike voice across from me.

I tried to unsuccessfully look around to see who the new voice belonged to but I couldn't move myself from this Santiago's hold.

"You are no fun Jane. You all get a head start I'll join you once I have her." Said Santiago.

"Master will not be happy if we don't complete the assigned mission on time" said another male voice.

How many vampires are there over here? I can't even see coz of his hold on me. I hear sighing and then it turned eerily quiet. Had they left I had thought.

"Finally I have peace. I can now enjoy you peacefully." He replied as if he was telling me he is having dinner in quite like a normal person. He started to caress my cheek with his nose and inched himself closer as if to kiss me. Fear started to course through me. He pulled me closer to him and pressed his entire body to mine. I closed my eyes to fight the disgust and started to struggle inside in his hold. I pushed my hands out as if to stop him and I felt rage course through me. I cannot let this vampire do to me what he is thinking of doing I thought. I felt something inside me explode. I felt this energy coming out of me literally. I feel the vampire's body move away from me and I opened my eyes. I saw a blue light coming out of my palms and surrounding Santiago in the form of bubble away from me. He was struggling to free himself from the bubble. When he saw the light coming from me he yelled "Get me down this instance you human. I will make you suffer for this." I felt rage course through me because of this vampire's behavior and I saw the vampire literally explode in front of my eyes and leave nothing but ash in his wake.

This had left me completely baffled. How was I able to do that? In my confused state I had failed to see my surroundings. As I was planning to go inside the house and not to come out anytime soon, I saw four more vampires: three males and a female standing in a distance in the same cloaked attire as Santiago. These might be the other vampires that were with him. Had they seen what I had done? Suddenly I feel myself encased in the same blue bubble which was holding Santiago earlier. I panicked. Will the same happen to me what happened earlier, was the thought that coursed through me. When nothing happened, I relaxed a bit. One of the three males from the group came and touched the bubble. He was thrown a good 100 feet away from me. He was clutching is hand as if he was in pain. "You cannot touch her through that bubble. It is shielding her somehow as if to protect her" he said. When the others saw what had happened, they were somewhat astound. The female of the group looked like she was concentrating on something. At the same time I felt something probing around the bubble. It was making me feel uncomfortable. Does she have some ability? Is she going to breakthrough it? Whatever she was trying didn't work it seemed as she looked mighty pissed. I saw them zipped towards me. They stop a good feet away from the bubble afraid to touch it. I saw black mist coming out of the palms of another one of the male who looked like the twin of the female. It looked as if it was caressing the bubble. It too couldn't penetrate the bubble leaving the male frustrated.

"It seems our gifts are useless on you human. You seem to have a gift of your own it. You are a shield and Master has been searching for one for a long time. He will be happy if we bring you back with us to home. I can see that the shield which you are projecting is draining you and once you are completely drained we will capture you and take you with us." Said the male who had touched the shield.

I feared for my life now. My survival instincts were in full swing now. I couldn't let these vampire capture me. I needed to find a way to get away from here and fast. I don't think whoever this master person these vampires were saying would be a good one. Shivers ran down my spine thinking what all they would do to me. Without anyone realizing what was to come I pushed my hand out and encased all the vampires in my shield as the one had called. Somehow during all this the shield protecting me still remained around me. I mustered up all the courage I has and tried to make my voice as threatening as possible.

"Leave now or I will one by one kill you all." I kept the threatening stance and just to warn them I tried what I had done earlier. I let the rage consume me. I guess killing Santiago had used my energy and there being more than one vampire I was just able to sizzle their skin and let them out of the bubble and fall on the ground. The vampires were clutching themselves in pain. "We… will… return… back…" said one of them through the pain and they all left the clearing. Once I was sure the vampires were not returning I tried to relax myself and felt myself faint. Before losing consciousness I felt cold hands catch me.

End of flashback

When I had come back to consciousness I was with Peter and Charlotte and we were in a car. Peter had explained me how while they were on hunt he got that feeling that I was in danger and they had returned just when I fainted. He then said that he had scented other vampires and heard the end of their declaration. I then told them what had happened and described the vampires as best I could and told him the names which I had heard. I saw Peter stiffened when I described them and even more so when I said their names. I asked him if he knew these vampires and he said it was better if I didn't know them. That I will know who they are when the time is right. He just let me know they were powerful vampires. He also said that it would be better from here on if I were to separate from them. He had let me know that due to my shield almost all vampire powers were useless on me and I would be better protected if I was alone. How he thought that I can protect myself alone is beyond me. I had asked him what about him and Charlotte, if the vampires come after them. He said that they will protect themselves and not to worry about them. Ya easier said than done. In the one weeks' time I had come to see them as my family and technically they are my family. I was bound to worry about them. In all this situation how I wished Clint was still alive and here with me. He was the only person in this world who I felt safe with. Peter didn't tell me where to go on from there just that I had to trust my instincts and follow them. He also said to use the forged id only if it was an emergency. While leaving them I had a small carryon bag with lots of cash in it and a few changes of clothes. Charlotte advised me to use the cash wisely and they would find me when the time was right meaning safe. And so I had been on run from there on.

After running from Denver, I had decided to go to my mother's house in Phoenix, Arizona. We had struck out that place thinking everyone will search for me there first. Since it had been more than a week since I was missing I decided to go there. I had taken a flight. When I had reached near the house it was under surveillance. I didn't wait a minute longer and ran from there. From then I had traveled through major states like Nevada, Utah and Wyoming and finally reached in South Dakota. I mostly used public transportation or hitched few rides on the way. While I was on run I didn't stay in one place for more than two days. Staying in cheap hotels where identification was not required were the only options for me. This cabin had come as a god's gift in my situation. It belonged to the tribal chief of Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota.

Low on funds I had decided to travel on foot when I reached somewhere near South Dakota. While I was hiking, I guess I had reached the borders of Pine Ridge Indian Reservation that I fainted. Forgetting to eat had caused the fainting spell. When I came to I had yet again met a part of Supernatural. When I had fainted someone from the tribe had found me near the borders and brought me to their home. When they were treating me they found the vampire bite mark and later on asked me how I was still a human. I had tried to avoid answer that questions but they let me know that they knew of vampires and the youth of the tribe shifted to protect from them. I had met another pack of shifters' but their form was that of Coyote instead of wolf. I then proceeded to tell them my story. The person who brought me into their house was the Chief of the Tribe and Alpha of the Coyote pack. He then extended his protection to me after listening my story. The tribe people were not ready to let an outsider stay in their lands and thus how I came to live in this cabin. The pack would patrol around the cabin and would provide me with food too. And that's why I felt safe here.

This was six months back and now here I'm about to move to a new place again. I didn't want to hurt the tribe people if the vampires are coming after me. Thinking I now understood what Peter meant when said that the vampires were powerful. My life really is fucked up. What more is there in store for me? I now feel Edward had been right when he had called me Danger Magnet. I really am a magnet for trouble or more like Supernatural. I look back at the map and a name stands out in front of my eyes. I hope I won't have to run from this place and can settle without anyone finding me.


Sorry for the delay. Writing this one was a bitch with me being a first time writer. I'm not from America so any places mentioned which might be wrong do let me know. Also, this chapter may contain many mistakes so please forgive me for them and let me know so that I can rectify them. Next chapter you'll hear what all has happened in Forks in the last six months. If you are waiting for Steve, you will have to wait for a while as he is yet to be found. ;)
