Jacobs POV.
I was late meeting Ness, some idiot decided to cheek the teacher, and boy did he (the teacher) not like it! So, angry teacher plus idiot boy equalled ten minutes behind after school! It took a lot of self-control not to punch him straight in the face, but I focused all of my energy onto running across campus to where her class was. I readied myself for a big grilling as I spun round the corner, only to find an empty corridor. I started to panic, wondering what could have happened to her. The teacher came out of the room, and jumped slightly on seeing me. He went to walk off, but turned back to me.
"Excuse me? Sorry, but are you Jacob? Jacob Black?" He asked, walking back towards me.
"Uh…yeah?" I said uncertainly.
"She described you perfectly," he said, smiling and nodding.
"I'm sorry…who?" I said, but I had an inkling on who he was on about.
"Oh, Renesmee, Renesmee Cullen. You do know her, don't you?" He said, nodding and raising his eyebrows as if he was talking to a little boy.
"Yes, why?" I said, moving towards him.
"She asked me to tell you something if I saw you, normally I wouldn't do it, but she is quickly turning into my star student, her and that Naomi…I wonder if they would be interested in the lead parts of the play…" he trailed off, obviously deep in thought.
"Uh, sir? The message?" I asked, my patients quickly running out.
"Oh, yes! She asked me to tell you that she would meet you by the car, and that she had a new friend for you to meet," but before he even got to the end I was off at a run, needing to find her and make sure she was OK. As I ran down the steps to the car park, I saw her with a girl who looked about her age and two older guys. But what really made me shake was the older boy had his arm around her, his face right next to hers. I started to run again but a steel arm suddenly shot out and grabbed me. I brought my arm back ready to give the person a hard right-hook, but another hand shot out and grabbed that arm as well.
"Jake!" A sharp, musical voice called out. I suddenly noticed the arms holding me were ice cold and there was a smell burning my nose. I followed the arms up to a pixie like face, smiling angrily. Alice.
"For such a small girl you have a really strong grip," I said, glaring at her and trying to get her off.
"Don't Jake. You'll make things worse if you go over there," she said, glancing over there nervously. It didn't take me long to figure it out.
"They're the vampires aren't they?" I whispered furiously. She nodded grimly. Before I could yell at her for leaving Ness on her own with three probably dangerous vamps, she cut in front of me.
"Em, Edward and Bella are there now," she said, nodding in the direction of Ness, and sure enough, the big brute with Edward and Bells were suddenly next to the big congregation.
"Hold on. Stay here," she urged before shooting off, running so quickly that by the time I had blinked she was there. A minute or two later the vampires where walking off, and I heard laughter come from the group.
Stuff this, I thought, and I ran as fast as I could and scooped Nessie up in my arms, swinging her round.
"Jake!" She squealed, but she hugged me tightly back. I set her back down and looked at her.
"Are you alright? Did they do anything to you?" I asked franticly, but she put a hand on my shoulder, and it seemed to melt away all of my worries. She smiled and put her hand on my cheek. Any one walking by would have seen it as a romantic gesture, but only we knew she was communicating with me. She replayed the scene in my head, and I growled when she remembered the freak-
Damon, she reminded me mentally-
was up in her face. Suddenly it stopped, and she was blushing. I immediately knew she was trying to hide something from me.
"Ness? What was that?" I said, holding her face up to look at me. She smiled and Emmett boomed with laughter.
"You should have seen her dog; she would have done you proud!"
"She always does me proud," I said quietly, to Nessie mostly. She smiled at me again, lighting up her face and she kissed me. I gave into it for a moment, but reluctantly pulled away.
"Stop trying to change the subject Ness," I muttered, trying to get my breath. She sighed and rolled her eyes, and I had a hard time not reminding her how she had blown up at her Mom for rolling her eyes. She put her hand to my face and played back the last bit and I burst out laughing, wrapping my arms around her and squeezing her tight.
"Well done, Ness. It seems that I have taught you something after all."
Renesmee's POV.
I was nervous. I was pacing up and down in my room, trying and failing to calm myself down. It wasn't Naomi, when I'm around her I feel like everything is natural, no smile or laugh is forced. It also wasn't the fact that three vampires we knew nothing about were coming over tonight.
It was two things.
One.
I HAVE NOTHING TO WEAR!
But that can wait till later…
Two.
Damon.
I can't really explain it, but when he's around me, I feel like I'm in danger, and I can't relax. Like I'm constantly checking my back and all around, expecting to see him leap out of the shadows, fangs bared. Even if he was hiding in my room to get me, I'd at least want him to come in and do it. Almost self consciously, I spin slowly, clutching the book I was holding. So, considering the scared-on edge-jittery edge I was harbouring, it didn't help when there was a shadow of something crouching in the corner of the room. I screamed, feeling the most scared than I had ever felt in my entire life. I collapsed in a crumpled heap of tears and sobs, trying to steady myself. I looked up and could see the outline of…
"Oh my god!" I sighed, clutching my heart.
It was just a stuffed bear.
I swallowed air in mouthfuls, leaning against the draws for support. I walked to my table and put the book down and turned on my laptop. It was tuned on and was showing an advert for some kind of horror film…I looked to see what the caption said on the bottom…
Dare to turn around…
I choked on a scream as a hand covered my mouth, and I struggled against it, but it felt like steel. Suddenly, a voice whispered in my ear, a voice I had had on replay in my head since this afternoon.
"Sshh, we don't want a fight, do we?" He whispered, again, almost seductively. Luckily, he hadn't thought about my hands. I lifted them up and pressed them to his cheek.
Let go of me.
He jumped away and pushed me away from him.
"What in hell?" He hissed, bringing his hand up to his cheek and brushed over it.
"Get out," I whispered, knowing help was just outside the door, and was probably listening to my thoughts right now.
Give me a minute.
"Why were you in my room?" I asked.
"I couldn't help but over hear your mutterings, and neither could Naomi. She sent this over for you. I can't wait to see you in it," he handed me a bag he seemed to have produced from no-where. I looked inside to find a short little green dress, with black sandals with a diamond on them. I smiled as I read the label, Lipsy.
"Well, what was up with the laptop and the whole, covering mouth bit?"
"Ah. Well, have you ever heard the expression, the cat plays with its pray before eating?" He said, smiling as he sauntered towards me.
"Oh, I'm your pray, am I?" I said, raising my eyebrows. By now he was right next to me, almost pressed up against me. He smiled down at me and whispered in my ear.
"More than you know." I looked up to retort, but I couldn't.
He was gone.
"Wow Nessie! I love that dress! That Naomi has some great fashion sense!" Alice said as I walked into our big living room. Most of the lights were off and the fire was lit, creating a warm cosy feeling. I walked over to one of the big soft couches and sat next to Jake, letting him pull me down and snuggled into his warmth.
"So, what time are the vamps coming?" Jake asked, wrapping his arms around me. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. We all looked around, confused; we were used to vampires just barging in. Alice rose from her seat uncertainly and went to the door. After only three seconds she returned with Naomi, Stefan and a very smug Damon.
"Sorry about that. We can't enter unless someone invites us in. Hotels and flats are a nightmare," Naomi said, smiling as I jumped up to hug her. She gave me a quick squeeze.
"So, let's get started, shall we?" Damon asked. I motioned for Naomi to come sit by us. She stood in front of Jake and smiled.
"I'm Naomi," she held out her hand. There was a slight pause before Jake took it and shook it firmly (I could see the veins stand up on his hand), and she sat down on the other side of me. Carlisle stood up and cleared his throat.
"I hope I'm not being too personal, but, you said you were a different type of vampires. Could you perhaps, explain this?" He asked, standing in front of Stefan.
"Of course," Stefan said. Naomi held out her hands and he walked over and pulled her up. Now, when most people help people up, they just, pull them up. But when Stefan and Naomi did it, it looked like a dance. He spun her round in the air and brought her back down, all in one quick 360 movement. It was strange to watch them, it was as if all of their movements were linked, and, come to think of it, Naomi seemed more relaxed when she was around Stefan, and when he wasn't, there was a bit of her missing. I was brought back to reality by Naomi clearing her throat and smiling mischievously at me. She winked and started the story.
"Well, our human lives where in the time of the American Civil war, in a little town called Mystic Falls. One night, our father told us we were to be entertaining an old friend's daughter, as both he and the rest of his family had died. He took her in, taking pity on her. Her name…was…Katherine," she hissed the name, and I could tell there was some un-told story behind that name.
"It wasn't long after Katherine moved in that I noticed something's about some of the town's residence. Most only came out at night, we hardly saw any of them eat or drink any thing. I was talking to Katherine about this one night, and, she told me."
"She told you? Just like that?" Alice said, frowning at her, and I couldn't help but do the same. Dad was always talking about how long and hard he had thought about telling Mom that he was a vampire, and here was this chick telling her all about her in one seating!
"It was a while before I had told her, and we had bonded a lot, being the only girls in the house. Let me tell you though, it was really weird, to have the girl that felt almost like a sister to you tell you something like that, I thought it was a joke! Until…she…"
"Wait! She bit you?" I cried out, not being able to help myself. Dad shot me a warning glance which I ignored. But Naomi just laughed.
"No! No, she felt like I was a sister to her as well. She took me down to the pantry and found a steak, and…well…" she winced, obviously still spooked at the sight of her first feeding. She shook her self slightly, but her eyes were still closed. Stefan squeezed her shoulder reassuringly. He took over the story.
"Katherine changed her…not long after that. Naomi," but she broke in front Stefan before he could say anything else.
"I was vein, stupid. Immortality was too good to be true," she said through locked teeth, almost snarling about her own stupidity, "I took it with no hesitations. Katherine hesitated…for a minute."
"I thought you said you were like a sister to her?" Jake scoffed.
"She did. So strongly, that she couldn't wait for me to join her world," Naomi almost whispered. There was an audible pause.
"So, how do you guys…you know?" Emmett said, not wanting to finish the sentence, sensing the anger Naomi felt towards her decision.
"If we die, with vampire blood in our systems, then we…wake up…"
"As a vampire?" I finished. Naomi half-smiled and nodded.
"But to make the transition complete, we need to…drink…" she trailed off, glancing at Jake, who was visibly shaking. I pressed a hand to his head, mentally whispering calming words. Naomi looked at me, and suddenly there was the voice in my head.
Is there anything I can do?
My eyes widened and I had a hard time keeping my mouth closed. I took my hand off Jakes face.
Naomi? Is that you?
Yes, who else?
I frowned, also seeing that I could communicate back.
How are you doing that?
…I think that's something I should explain…out loud.
Oh…
Wait, I'm going to show every one, well, this, OK?
Yeah, sure. Just be careful with Jake, he may not like this.
You mean tall, dark and handsome? He's a werewolf, isn't he?
I couldn't help it this time, my mouth popped open, forming a perfect little o.
I'll take that as a yes.
How did you know?
He's showing all of the right signals of them…
There's something else you're not telling me. Do you have another power?
Just give me a minute to show the others, all will become clear.
I smiled and giggled at her as she wiggled her eyes as she said the last bit. I noticed the others were looking at me as if I were mad. I smiled and nodded at her. She winked and her eyes went slightly glazed over, but not as much as Aunt Alice's do when she has her visions. Suddenly, Mom, Esme and Rose gasped. Mom clutched Dad's arm, who had gone stiff as a board. Jasper hissed furiously, while Emmett jumped out of his seat.
"What the fuck?" (Soz for the language btw, Emmett will swear a bit in the story) he yelled. Carlisle and Alice were the only ones that stayed calm. Alice probably knew from the moment Naomi stepped into the room, and Carlisle…well, he was always calm; I doubted anything could upset him. Jake flew from his seat and looked around wildly, and I could tell Naomi hadn't tried him yet. I looked at her and nodded. Suddenly he clenched his fist so hard that all of the veins stood up on his body. He snarled.
"OK! OK! It's all right!" I ran up to him, smoothing over the frown lines on his head. He let out a great huff of kept in breath and closed his eyes, making him look as if he was in pain.
"Naomi," he whispered quietly, "is this…her?"
"Yes," I whispered to him, "are you alright?"
"Yeah, it's just…a lot…to…" he trailed off, his voice catching a hard edge.
"Naomi," I whispered to her, glancing over my shoulder in her direction.
"On it," her voice rang out as clear as a bell behind me. Suddenly Jake's legs buckled and collapsed out from under him. I knelt down beside him and tried to hold him up. Everyone else relaxed as well, those who had been holding it let out a gasp of un-needed air, and Emmett fell back into his chair.
"Whoa, that was amazing!" He said, eyes widening at Naomi like a kid on Christmas day. She smiled at him and turned to every one.
"I can project my thoughts into people's heads,"
"No shit!" Emmett yelled. She laughed, letting it light up her face.
"I know, I know. And, as Nessie already knows, you can communicate back," she said, nodding at me. Dad stood up, shaking his head slightly.
"Wait, wait. Isn't you're power the same as Renesmee's?" He looked from Naomi to me as he said this. I frowned, thinking how I could have missed this.
"…Kind of, but she has to have body contact for it to work…and…" she trailed off, and I could tell she was hiding something. I walked up to her and put a hand on her shoulder.
"Naomi? Is there something else?" I said. She looked at Stefan, an anxious look playing across her face.
"If you think this is right," he said, nodding slightly. She looked at us and looked back at Stefan, like a trapped animal in a cage. She turned back to Stefan, now looking nervous and unsure. Suddenly, a laugh came out from the corner of the room, and I whipped round to find myself facing Damon. He sauntered into the centre of the room to stand in front of Naomi.
"Aw, ickle Naomi is scawed of losing her ickle fwends!" He said in a baby voice. Naomi bristled and…
"Oh my god!" I yelled, "Naomi, your eyes!" I rushed towards her to get a better look. She looked down and shook her head, as if she was trying to get something out of her eyes. I took her hand so she would look at me, but her hand felt like it was the sun. I jumped back.
"OW!"
"Ness!" Jake yelled, jumping off the floor and turning me to face him, his eyes sweeping my body till they came to rest on my bright cherry red hand. He took it gently before flinching and hissing, but he kept holding my hand. I took it away and frowned at him.
"Don't!" I said as he tried to hold it again, "you'll burn your hand!"
"Ness, look at your hand," he said, holding it up so I could see it. After I saw it, I didn't think about the pain it would cause Jake, all I could think about was how much it hurt. It had started welting already, and it was an angry red. It felt as if there was millions and millions of hornets were stinging my hand over and over again. I bit my lip, trying not to cry out, but I couldn't help the tears that sprang to my eyes. Naomi came to the side of me and gasped.
"Oh my god!" She yelled in despair.
"What's wrong, it's not your fault!" I said through locked teeth, still fighting back the urge to scream out loud. She shook her head madly. She stepped towards me.
"Come here, and give me your hand," she said, holding out her hands. I gave them to her slowly, careful not to move them. She cupped them in her hands and closed her eyes. I looked at her, confused before suddenly, there was suddenly a gorgeous coolness spreading through my hand, like pressing an ice cube onto something and streams of water trickle down. I gasped, and Naomi opened her eyes. She smiled weakly and sat down. I heard Jacob gasp behind me and Dad run up from his seat.
"Renesmee," he gasped, "your hand!" I looked down and, well, I really couldn't help it.
"HOLY CR-,"
"RENESMEE!"
"Sorry Mom," I muttered, "but still…bloody hell Naomi! How'd you…?" I motioned to my now perfectly normal, perfectly healed hand. She rolled her eyes and took a deep breath, as if she was preparing herself for something she didn't want to do.
"I…I…"
"Naomi, its ok! Just say it!" I said, smiling what I hoped was encouragingly and not impatient.
"I'm a hybrid, I have access to every single power possible."
