Chapter 8-Phoebe

The joke ends

The bell rang.

"And the joke comes to a close" I said quietly, flitting to the door.

"Hala! Welcome to our house" I said brightly. We made our way to the dining room and Carlisle sat at the head of the table.

"Esme, please bring in dinner with Edward" he instructed. Once the none vampires and I started eating. Yes I can eat food but it tastes disgusting. Remember, I have Renesmee traits, looking cautiously up at the Cullen's and I. Carlisle cleared his throat. He looked nervously around the table, looking for some support. He found none.

"Well" he said, composing himself. "We asked you here to introduce you to our newest member and also because Alice, Esme and Rosalie are dying to congratulate you Emily, and Sam. Also take into your thoughts what you would like for your wedding presents" he said, steering the conversation away from me.

"Why are you doing this" Sam said, heavily.

"Listen. What do you hear when you listen to Phoebes heart?" Carlisle asked.

"Phoebe, turn the fake heartbeat off please. It's another gift of hers." That was Edward.

Everyone went quiet. Emily had no idea what was happening because she did not have werewolf hearing. Or vampire hearing. They all looked extremely shocked. I smiled widely.

"So she's a" Quil said disgustedly.

So what. She looks pretty and is nice. He thought

But there was also a tinge of relief. Suddenly Jacob exploded. This was strange. he liked the Cullen's.

"You bring us here, thinking we're going to have to kill you. And what's with its eyes and skin?" He shouted. He was starring angrily at Bella and Carlisle, acting as if I wasn't there.

"Is it another creation of yours? A half werewolf half vampire?" He was really angry. But so am I.

"I have feelings you know. And I am a full vampire. But do not ever threaten Carlisle again or it'll be the last thing you do. And what about Renesmee. She's a hybrid. Seeming as you want to kill me then you want to kill her to, huh!" I said it in a dark and grim a haunted voice. But it was quiet, dripping with power.

"Why do you think he wanted to kill you?" Emily asked.

"We heard it" Edward and I stated. I searched in my head for Jane's gift and my eyes unfocused. Edward, hearing my thoughts tried to stop me.

"Phoebe. No!" he yelled. Too late. As soon as he touched me a shock went through this arm. He lay kneeling on the floor. Within less than a quarter of a second I had attacked Jacob mentally and he lay, a quivering mass on the ground, whimpering. I stood over him.

"I will kill her myself! See how you like that, huh!" I said eerily. If I could have cried I would have.

"You'd never have to. I know you never would do it." Bella whispered. I was shocked emotionally so that I lost my concentration and Edward was up with Esme hugging him tight, but he was starring at me. He wasn't angry. He understood my pain. Jacob was up and he was pale, starring at me.

"No one will ever touch her." He said through his teeth. "You are an idiotic, freak-".

"Stop! Do not call her that! She has had an awful life, do you really want to make it worse. She has practically been my mum and you cannot hurt her without hurting me." Bella said fiercely. "And Phoebes, please don't touch Edward again or I'll have to re-think that statement."

I smiled widely. I would make Jacob pay anyway. I searched for that special vampire.

I raised my left hand with my palm facing upwards. Jacob followed my hand. Standing tall on his toes and then being slowly lifted off the ground as I brainwashed him. The audience grew captivated. Then I dropped him back to the floor, carefully, doing so by bending the tips of my fingers back slightly. Jacob was starring at me like I was his god. I kept my hand still, rolling my head to towards my left shoulder. I raised my right hand to my lips.

"Shh." I said, layering the mesmerizing power into my voice.

"So". Here I left a few second to let it set in.

"Captivating" I said smiling. I walked slowly, at a humans pace to Jacob until I could have reached up and kissed him. I finally moved my right hand to stroke the side of his face. When my hand had traced up and down the smooth contours of his face twice I pulled my other hand up to the other side of his face, cupping it gently. I reached up so that I was right by his ear. And whispered to him,

"Be strong my brother, don't ever back down" then I broke away from the power. I kept my hands on his face. My face close to his and smiled warmly. His face turned from adoring to shocked hatred. Slowly I turned and walked to stand between Bella and Alice. I held they're hands and whispered to Alice so quietly that no-one heard.

"Let's get this show on the road!" I whispered. Alice giggled. We half danced half ran outside to the porch and down the stairs. Edward already had the music on and was whirling Bella down the stairs despite her protests. Alice and I twirled around each-other, Alice in purple, me in gold. Soon all the Cullen's were outside laughing or on the porch talking. There where only 16 of us and 9 of us willing to dance. Maybe Seth and Jacob and Quil might dance with Bella, and Seth would talk to Edward. Rosalie was waltzing with Carlisle, Esme with Edward; Bella was sitting grumpily in the corner. Jacob and Quil were talking to each other, both stuffing they're faces. Emmett and jasper were. Where were they? Suddenly I heard Emmett call. Beside him was jasper.

"Hey Phee!" he said, smiling wickedly.

"Yeah?" I said warily. Suddenly his arm hurled forward, letting lose something the size of a globe. Maybe bigger. Before I could do anything, jasper had used his gift to make me think un-clearly and I forgot how to use my gift. It was a lot bigger. The rock hit me on my forehead with so much force that I actually stumbled. But it only hurt a little, now lying as dust on the ground.

"You are so dead, pretty boy" I screeched, even though there was an evil grin on my face. Emmett and Jasper where almost falling over themselves laughing. I heard Bella chastising them in the background. I was giggling, planning, waiting for the best opportunity to attack. And it came. I hurtled forward, carful of my dress and clenched my arms around Emmett's waist. Then I squeezed.

"hey!" he was just able to gasp. Then I let him go. Alice and I laughed. It sounded like hundreds of bells tinkering. Edward, Jacob, Seth and Quil were laughing. The werewolves had louder heartier laughs but Emmett's was the loudest. Then he glared at me playfully.

"I could take you on any day. I was going soft on you" he said. As if. At this Edward and I started laughing. We knew his thoughts and Emmett never went soft on someone.

"Oh really big brother" I said tauntingly. He lunged at me. At that precise moment a huge pile of snow appeared between us. it was four metres high and six metres long. He growled. So did I put it was playful. I calculated his step and just as he landed exactly where I had been I was up the top of a tree. I giggled. I could see for miles. Then I noticed Emmet's thoughts' oh. I stared down the base of the tree.

"Don't you dare" I called down.

"I'm going to make your life miserable!" Emmett chuckled darkly. With a great heave he and jasper heaved against the tree so much that it fell down with me in it. When it was a few metres away from the ground I hoped off.

"Moron! You wrecked my hair. It took me hours to do it!" everyone except me was laughing. A coy smile tugged my lips as I sunk into a predator's stance. Moving as quiet as a leopard I passed unnoticed by the others. I was directly north of Emmett and he was laughing, facing the other way. Suddenly everyone stopped. They noticed I was gone as I climbed like a lemur up the tree. Just as I reached the top, Emmett looked up in horror. I jumped. Distantly I heard cheering. Emmett was lying on the ground breathless. I held out my hand to help him up.

"Do you think you could beat all of us?" Carlisle asked, wonderingly.

A feral grin plastered itself over my mouth.

"uh,Carlisle,do you really want her to get so caught up in it that she accidently pulls emmetts fingers off,which get tossed into the fire by Jacob by accident?And then have Roslaie try to kill her ending in her own death?"alice said worriedly.

"Oh!"Carlisle said shocked.

"Sorry."I said grimacing "I got caught up"the wolves were chortelling.

emmet looked super pissed
