New Life

Chapter 7: Story Time part 2

Disclaimer: See chapter 1 for disclaimer

AN: The chapter is about others thought, rehashing of Twilight's events, and Bella's life until her change.

A trivia, does anyone know the importance of Paris, hints are in the start of chapter 2.

Edythe POV

When Bella told about her ability, though everyone was doubtful but agreed when Carlisle accepted to do so.

When she started with knowing about Victoria during her stay we were remorseful, the wolves and their imprints were understanding and our high school friends were in awe as they have an idea.

When she mentioned how her decision to study in Paris had unknowingly saved her from torture then our collective thoughts was, 'now I understand why we weren't allowed to go to Paris'.

After that everyone's thought were from awe, to wonder and to more wonder as she summarized the events and analyzed them.

But it was the way she analyzed the actions of Jane and other guards of Volturi and our actions that surprised all but it was Carlisle's thought that surprised me most.

Carlisle was thinking, 'the way she analyzed Volturi guards action and mentioned the treaty, it indicates she is not just Death Dealer but very strong in her position, she is at least Council member if not the elder, but how is that possible as she is very young.'

Bella POV

After completing the story I observed their reactions, everyone was in awe but it were the expression of Carlisle and consequently Edythe that amazed me so I continued, "It seems that Carlisle and as a result Edythe have some inkling of what I am, but please wait so that I can tell my story, than you will understand."

As a response to which Carlisle said, "Though I got an idea of what you are but I will wait for your story before asking anything about how you became what you are."

At which I responded, "Thank you Carlisle for your patience. Well Cullen's know about my life story of when I came here to when they move out, I also know that La Push wolves and their imprints about my story as well and from Venom memories of Angela I know that everyone one else have an idea, right."

At that point everyone nodded in agreement. So I continued, "I will summarize it so everyone know about them, my first day at lunch was the first time I saw them, during Biology period we were lab partners and it turned out that I was Edythe's blood singer, and it became lot worse as the Cullen's hadn't fed for a time, hence her reaction, and why she was absent for whole week."

At that point Mike Newton had look of understanding as he had joked about Edythe's reaction, if I had poked her eyes.

I further continued, "The day of Tyler's van accident, Edythe was really not standing by my side, as Tyler was saying, but ran from her parking spot to save me."

At which point Tyler had a look of understanding.

Further continuing I said, "When we went to La Push beach, after remarks of Lauren Mallory and Sam Uley's response, I asked Julie Black about Sam's response, as I was suspicious about Cullen's nature after Tyler's incident, Julie told me about their and Cullen's nature, though as only thinking of them as legends."

At which point La Push gang had looks of understanding.

Further continuing, "When Angela, Jessica and I went for prom dress shopping and I went for book shop, I was ambushed by street thugs and rapist and I would have been raped only if not for Edythe not following me using her mind reading ability."

At which Angela and Jessica had look of understanding for my lateness.

Continuing further I told them, "You all have some inkling about the incident because of which Victoria was targeting me, well as you know Cullen's love to play baseball during thunderclouds, during their one game I was also there, during which Victoria, James and Laurent arrived suddenly, due to suddenness of their arrival, I have to stay in field, though Cullen's tried to shield my essence, but due to sudden wind my essence was revealed and thus wild chase began, it was the reason I went to Jacksonville."

At which all high school friends had look of understanding.

So continuing on, "In Jacksonville James deceived me into thinking he had my mother as a captive, so I went their alone, but Cullen's arrived later. As a result fight continued on, during which James bit me, parts of Alice's human life came to light, they killed James and Edythe sucked the vampire venom out, similar to how snake venom is sucked out. Due to injuries sustained during fight they decided to show my injuries as a result of falling down staircase, which was easy as I was klutz."

At which everyone other than Cullen's had look of understanding.

So further continuing, "This is why Victoria targeted me, saying mate for mate. After which on my birthday the Cullen's threw a party, during which due to being klutz, I nicked my finger, Jessamine being empathy in a room full of vampires and an open wound tried to attack me, but saved by others, patched up by Carlisle due to his control, Edythe blaming herself for all of it decided to leave me behind, taking all the Cullen's with her, telling me bye and lying to me to not loving me."

At which point Edythe had a look of surprise of me catching her lie.

Continuing on, I began, "After that you all know what happened, I stayed zombie like for a time, broke out of it due to Julie and others help. Became adventurous, went to our meadow," while looking pointedly at Edythe, "met Laurent and found out about Victoria's plan."

At which point Wolves had look of understanding while Cullen's had of remorse.

Further continuing on I said, "Now for the reason why I decided to study in Paris, unknowingly saving myself from torture, known only by Julie and Leah, was that I was diagnosed terminal and I will only live at the most to 25 years. My clumsiness had worsened and other symptoms were clear so I went to neurosurgeon and it was found out that I have demyelinating disease and it have become terminal."

At which everyone became anxious and Carlisle explained, "Demyelinating disease is neural and is curable if diagnosed otherwise patient will only live 30 years max, I think you became incurable due to James incident."

In response to that I replied, "it seemed to be, and according to the doctors my tumbling down two levels of staircase and tumbling out of the glass window made it so."

At which everyone gave the look of understanding.

Continuing I said, "So I decided to enjoy remaining time of my time and decided to study and stay in Paris, the city of light. I completed my degree in fashion designing in 3 years, worked in fashion magazine also I waited in a café."

At which point Alice piped out, "I have few of your designs of copy of your articles in that magazine on fashion."

In response I replied, "Thank you Alice, Now to the story, on the last day of my human life when I was in the parking lot after my shift, a woman appeared, she seemed to be in haste and fleeing from something, at first glance I thought she was Victoria, but obviously not, before she could attack me she was shot by another woman, similar in built to Alice and also short hair, but the first woman was able to attack me and I was bleeding."

Everyone were clearly in my story at this point.

Continuing I said, "After killing the first woman the second one came to me, she studied me, I thought she was Alice if not for the fangs, she then took a taste of my blood on the ground, then said 'Do you want to live or die'. After my response of I want to live she bit me to change into her kind of vampire. Let me say though duration of change may vary but the changes are very painful."

Af this point Edythe asked the question which was on everyone's mind, "Who were those two women were on that night?"

To which I replied, "Well the first one was a lycanthrope, or simply lycan, or commonly known as werewolf, not the La Push wolves but like the ones shown in movies and literature. Well the vampire who changed me, well lets say she is well renowned to Volturi and clan leaders, she is Selene."

At which point there was pandemonium, everyone asked Carlisle about her and he replies, "She is very dangerous and powerful hunter, even Volturi are afraid of her."

To be continued.

AN: Bella's story will end in next chapter. The next chapter will be around Halloween.
