Emotionless Love

Ok please let me say this first to all you readers, you can't tell someone that their story is going off topic because you do not know if those 'off-topic' parts will help in the story or not. So do not write comments on a story you do not fully know about. Yes it may seem that some sections in the chapter are off topic but I do not do them on purpose.

Chapter Eight: How Pain Can Change A Person

Normal POV

"I never would of expected a person of your authority to be hiding in the shadows, let alone following me, Carlisle." Bella said turning around looking into the darkness. He stepped out from the shadows with his eyes glowing in the moonlight.

"Should I call you Bella or Hitomi?" he asked.

Bella chuckled, "Don't kill yourself picking a name Carlisle. If you prefer Bella then that's fine."

"Alright then, Bella it is."

"You're not here for small talk, Carlisle. What is it?" She asked cutting to the chase. "What? Did Edward beg you to convince me to talk to him?" She joked darkly.

"No, in fact, he doesn't know I'm with you. I just wanted to talk to you myself," he replied.

"About?"

"Why you burned down your house and almost killed your father."

"Relax, Carlisle, its not like I actually killed him."

"You almost did from what I heard."

"A coma, wow. He eventually came out of it and as a bonus he got remarried. It's like I did him a favor."

"Bella, you were his only daughter. To do such a thing its-"

" I don't recall asking for your opinion!" Bella snapped back facing him.

"Bella you've changed," Carlisle stated looking into the distance.

"Well fourteen years does change a person."

"I meant your attitude. You never acted like this before."

"Does that shock you?"

"No, but it worries me. I don't like how you're acting. It kills Edward to see you like this. He's constantly trying to get you to hear him out. He wants to apolo-"

"I don't want his damn useless apology," Bella cut in.

"Bella the way you act is as if you have..."

"No emotions?" She finished staring into his golden eyes. "Well congratulations Carlisle. You've figured out part of the puzzle." Bella mocked putting on a fake show girl accent.

"What?" He asked confused at her comment.

Bella walked towards the door and looked over her shoulder, "Let me ask you then, what happens to someone when they throw away their emotions?" Then she left.

Carlisle stood there and thought deeply about the question asked. He didn't know what to say. He kept repeating the question over and over again only to find himself asking more questions. 'How can someone simply throw away emotions?' He asked himself.

The conversation he had with Bella didn't really help much so he decided to go talk to Akira. When he arrived at the door he noticed that none of his guards were around. He gently knocked on the door.

"Come in," Akira answered and looked up, "Carlisle, what can I help you with?" He asked putting down his files.

"I wanted to talk about Bel-Hitomi. Is that alright?" He asked sitting down in one of the chairs in front of Akira.

"Is something the matter with her?"

"Oh no, nothings wrong. I just want to know about her history here."

"I see, well, she is a gifted child. She's simply amazing."

"What do you mean?"

"Well, at first she was only able to move objects using her mind but," he paused and picked up a picture frame, "when she was testing out her power she got Lina to attack her and when Lina strike, Hitomi hit her back with her own element," he smiled at the thought and handed Carlisle the photo. "This was pretty much the first and only time she smiled"

Carlisle examined the photo and couldn't help but smile himself. In the photo, it was of all the guards together, Lina, Bella, Kaname and Van. They all looked happy. The boys were laughing at Bella and Lina because she jumped on top of Bella when the picture was taken.

"Did something effect this change in her personality?" He asked putting back the photo in its right place.

"Please don't get offended by my answer but I think your boy was the cause." Akira sat back in his chair and ran his hand through his auburn hair.

"Yes, it seems. His siblings tried to convince him to rethink his decision but he wouldn't budge, as much it killed him too."

"You can see it in his eyes," a female voice came from the door. Both men turned to the voice to see Maria standing there with a serious look. She walked over to the empty chair beside Carlisle and sat down, "It's sad seeing that Bella won't give him the time of day to let him talk to her."

"You knew her long also?" Carlisle asked, leaning forward in interest. It disturbed Akira a bit that Carlisle was taking such interest in Maria. Only he was the one to get close to her. He's known Maria for over ten years and within that short time he's grown rather fond of her,you could even call it love. But even the greatest leaders can't fight the battle of confessing their love. He wouldn't know if Maria would reject him or laugh at him.

"I was with her in Forks when, you know, the 'accident' happened. When we were on the plane, she would just gaze out the window. Once and a while she would cry and when I asked what was wrong she would just say 'nothing'"

"Did Bella ever give a reason why she did all this? I know Edward hurt her but to this extent, it doesn't seem believable."

Maria stared down at her lap, "That I can't tell you Carlisle-san. Thats for her to answer and I respect her for that."

"I see, well, thank you both for telling me this. I too worry about her. When she was with my son they were extremely happy. It relieved me and my wife greatly that he found his one true love."

"Yes we worry about her too. All of us do. But all we have to do now is wait for the right time." Akira finished, "Now, shall we talk about your position here in the rehab?" Maria smiled and stood up,

"Well I'll leave you two to your arrangments. Akira," and he looked up at her with a smile, "I'll be in the lab if you need me." Then she walked out.

Edward's POV

"Edward, are you sure you're alright?" My sister Alice asked staring at me with worry. We were both in her room and Jasper went to go find Esme and Rosalie.

"I'm fine, Alice." Of course she knew I was lying. Damn, why won't Bella talk to me? Even if she does its either some sarcastic remark or a monotone answer. I should go to her room again.

"No you're not Edward." Alice answered, "Its not going to go well either way. Give her space will you, I think you've hassled her enough for one day."

"Space? Alice I think you've forgotten the main point here. She's had space for fourteen years!" Whether it kills me or not, I will talk to Bella.

"See, comments like that will never get you to talk to her," someone said through the sliding door,

"May I come in?" It asked.

"Yeah, come in," Alice answered. Wearing white jeans and a grey and black sweater vest, Lina walked in and stood just a few feet away from us.

"Where that's blond guy you were just with?" She asked scanning the room. In the light her hair glistened and the colour was pure black.

"Jasper is looking for my sister and mother, why?" Alice asked, not pleased that she called her husband 'the blond guy'. One thing that will tick off Alice is how people talk about 'her Jasper' like that.

"You called?" he asked, walking into the room with perfect timing. He had Emmett with him and they both looked at me.

'You okay, bro?' Emmett asked me through his mind. I nodded to him and looked back at Lina.

"Bella wanted to know if you want to check out Kuro and Luna now" she said, "You up to it? Or do you prefer to rest more?"

Jasper looked at me and looked at Alice. You could just tell that he was begging Alice to let him go. And by the looks of it Emmett wanted to go too. At least he wouldn't have to ask her. From what I read Rose is with Esme. Guess she doesn't exactly like being here but then again, it's Rose. I looked over at Alice and she looked at me. 'You will go with them' she thought. I smirked at her and nodded my head. Can't blame her, last time they let Jaz and Emmett go out by themselves they almost got their heads ripped off by Esme.

"Fine, you can go," she gave up and Jasper crossed the room and gave her a passionate kiss.

"Okay, now that we're done with that, follow me guys." Lina smiled and stalked out the door, walking towards the elevator.

Bella's POV

After my talk with Carlisle I went back to my room. I need some time to collect my thoughts. As I walked passed Alice's room I could smell that Edward was in there. It's nice that Carlisle worries about me but he really shouldn't waste his time. I always knew he could never hate someone. It's Carlisle we're talking about.

I pulled the sliding door open and closed it without making a sound. I looked around the room and I found a note on our(Van and I) big spacious bed. It had my name written on it with such beautiful script.

'Hitomi,

I expect you to stay away from that prick. I made sure that Kuro keeps his eye on you. Please be careful and watch your back. As much as I hate being away from you, I will bear it. I'm going to finish this mission before the three days run out.

I already miss you.

Van'

Then I jumped a bit when Kuro brushed his tail at my back. When I turned around Luna was sprawled across her favourite pink carpet. She's such a mushy wolf. And yet Kuro loves her so much. Its easy to tell that he doesn't want her to fight. What male does? He walked over behind her and rested his head on her. Kuro's very protective for a six-foot wolf. His dark midnight blue fur sparkles in the light, it almost look likes he's part of the night sky. I looked at the clock and it read 2am. How time is so damn slow.

I walked over to my two wolves I bent down and ruffled Luna's fur. They both looked up at me and shot me a cute playful look.

"You guys want to head out and maybe, I don't know, play?" I asked grinning at them as their ears shot up. Kuro stood up with his big pink tongue hanging, wagging his fluffy tail. "But, you have to behave because I'm going to invite some of the Cullens. Jasper wants to see you guys, so be good, alright?" I warned, mainly at Kuro.

"Bella?" I heard someone call me at my door.

"Yeah, come in, Lina." I answered, walking over to my closet. She walked in and immediately sat on my bed. She didn't say anything just sat there, staring at nothing.

"Is there a reason why you're here Lina?" I asked

"Nope, just wanted to come hang with my cousin," she said, motioning for Luna to come on the bed.

I found what I wanted to wear and went behind the white screen to change. I picked out a pair of black slacks and one of Van's large t-shirts. Since his t-shirt was so long I took one of my hair-ties and tied it around the back, revealing my stomach.

"Going somewhere?" my cousin asked.

"Yeah, want to come? I'm taking Kuro and Luna to one of the clearings outside of town."

"Cool. Who's coming?" she asked standing up and tieing her long black hair.

"I was thinking of asking Jasper since he wanted to get a closer look of Kuro. And if anyone else wants to come." I walked back to my closet and grabbed a pair of my black and blue air forces and red sweater. "Could you go get them in the next room across while I get these two outside?"

"Sure, meet you in the front," she said and left. I heard her talking in the next room and right when I was going to walk out with Kuro and Luna when my phone vibrated.

"Its only been two hours," I said into the receiver.

"Two hours too long. How are things going?" Van asked.

"Good, I'm taking Kuro and Luna out for a practise." It funny how Van stresses being alone on missions. I think Akira-sama does it on purpose sometimes.

"Is that prick going with you?" He asked me, his voice dark and full of hate

"Some of them are but I doubt he'll want to come." I heard him pause and sighed.

"Do you want Sora and Rin to come with you?"

"You didn't bring them with you?" I asked, annoyed that he has no back up. "Why would you leave them here? You know it's not safe going a mission alone, especially if you don't know if the target has a power!" I scolded.

"Calm down would you, Akira-sama filled me in on this person, he has no power. He's just killing."

I sighed and rubbed my temple 'he's such an idiot sometimes'. "Fine, where are they?" I asked, giving up at this stupid argument.

"Hmm, I think if you just call them they'll come."

"Alright, well I'm going to go now. Be careful Van."

"Yeah, I will. I love you Hitomi," he said and the line went dead. I looked at my wolves and motioned my head to the door. Of course they heard my conversation with Van and both are excited that their buddies are coming with.

Instead of walking these two big fluffs I used one of the powers I copied and teleported us to the front gates. Last time I walked both of them in the halls, each servant screamed in fear and some even attacked Luna. And one time two years ago, Lina wanted to fight with Kuro in the training field and they nearly blew up the whole underground. I've never seen Akira-sama turn so pale. But then again, Lina is one to do that.

As I waited for everyone to come outside, I used that chance to call Sora and Rin. Van's wolves weren't as big as mine but they were just as powerful. Sora had black and white fur, its chest and paws were pure black, which was so adorable. Rin was the complete opposite, her fur was a rusty deep brown colour. She normally used that to her advantage, her fur is so dark that she can blend into the trees, easy for her to attack her prey.

I heard voices coming to the doors and I turned around. I felt the wind blow through my hair and I closed my eyes. As cruel as everyone calls me, I can't but help but pity Edward and think he's a complete idiot. Wasn't he the one who said he didn't love me? Really, does it upset him that I have someone else in my life other than him?

I opened my eyes and turned around to see everyone staring at me. Edward especially. Why is it I feel such a pain every time I see his pain struck face. Damnit, I thought I got rid of this feeling, why is it resurfacing? And how?

Normal POV

Lina walked over to Bella and nudged her out of her trance. "You alright?" She whispered, only Bella could hear. She looked at her and nodded. "I brought Kaname along, that fine?"

"Why wouldn't I want Kaname to come? He's a better company than you," Bella joked smirking at Kaname and he smirked back. All six of them, Bella, Lina, Kaname, Emmett, Jasper and Edward jumped off into the darkness of the morning.

"Is it ok to leave Akira all by himself without you guys there?" Emmett asked gliding through the trees.

"It's fine. Even if we left him with a pack of newborns he could take care of himself," Kaname answered. Him and Jasper have been getting along exceptionally well considering they have the same gift.

They all arrived at a clearing right beside a stream. Edward walked over to stand beside Bella but didn't say anything. He stole a glance at her and it pained him to see her emotionless face.'I just want to hold her, kiss her. I want my Bella back,' he thought.

"Would you mind keeping your thoughts to yourself," she said looking at him from the corner of her eye.

"How is it you're able to hear what I'm thinking Bella?" He asked, astounded again.

"I used your mind reading."

"How?"

"Hitomi can copy others' gifts and use it as her own," Kaname answered walking over to her, "She can also move objects using her mind"

"Thanks for telling them everything, Kaname," she muttered

He smiled and patted her on the head, "Blame Lina, I think your cousin is rubbing off on me"

"Hey!" she shouted. Everyone laughed at her and Emmett walked over to her putting his arm around her shoulder.

"And then she was ganged up on by everyone," he narrated smiling like an idiot. Lina glared at him and lifted up his arm off her.

"And then Emmett got soaked by a massive typhoon," she mocked his narrative tone.

"Soaked?" He asked and looked up to see a big water bubble forming above him. Before he could dodge it , it hit him square in the head. Then Jasper fell onto his knees shivering in laughter

"Lina!" Edward hollered.

"What? No harm done. Look, I'll even dry him off." She swung her arm and a gust of wind blow dried him leaving him full of leaves and all wrinkled too.

"Alright Lina, enough soaking the guest" Kaname said holding her around the waist. His golden eyes then wondered over to Bella and gave her a nod to call on the wolves.

"Jasper," Bella said walking over to him and helping him up, "Are you ready to meet my wolves?" He straightened up and nodded. From his last encounter with Kuro it left him extremely curious. He's never really seen a wolf up close, let alone almost attack one.

Bella jumped a few feet away from everyone and pulled her hair into a pony tail. She stared up into the sky and let the wind blow her scent everywhere. She brought her hand to her lips and let out a very high pitch whistle. The boys immediately covered their ears. Edward looked over at Lina and Kaname and they were not effected by the whistle. In a blink of an eye, four wolves jumped out of thin air and surrounded Bella. Fangs bear, they circled her dangerously. She eyed each one of them. From dark blue to black, brown to rusty orange. A deep menacing growl rumbled in Kuro's throat, rooting Edward to the ground. He's never heard such a terrifying growl aside from his. Jasper felt his fear and looked over at Kaname who was completely calm. His eyes turned black and lifeless as he watched his fellow comrade be surrounded by wolves.

They all stared intently at her as she sway around, watching each wolf. Kuro then lugged himself towards her back and was mysteriously stopped. Everyone held their breathe as she flung back the wolf. Then all three of them jumped on her and Edward jumped in. Before he could reach her all three wolves were flung ten feet away.

"You guys, that wasn't a good enough of a strategy," Bella whined brushing off the dust on her shoulders. She turned around and stared at three stunned expressions. She flipped her brown hair back and walked over to Jasper, Emmett and Edward. "Ready to meet them?" She asked letting her sweet breath blow across their faces, snapping them out of their trance.

All three boys looked at each other and weakly nodded their heads. Lina stepped beside them and they walked toward the four wolves. Bella walked over to Kuro and Luna and patted their heads.

"These two are mine. Kuro and Luna." She motioned to each one as she said their names.

"And these two are Van's, Sora and Rin," Lina said petting the two large balls of fluff.

Jasper walked cautiously over to Kuro and stood in front of him. He examined his features and Kuro wrinkled his nose, taking in his scent. Luna on the other hand skipped over to Edward and brushed herself on him. She made a quiet purring sound from the back of her throat and it almost looked like she was smiling.

Everyone chuckled and Bella sighed, shaking her head. Edward couldn't help but massage the top of Luna's head, ruffling her fur.

"Seems like Edward got a new girlfriend. Too bad for you, Be," Lina teased. Edward shot a look at Bella hoping what Lina was saying was true. Bella glared at her and snarled at her. Lina backed off with her hands, raised surrendering.

"Bella, what do you mean their 'yours'?" Emmett asked staring at Sora.

"I created them," she answered looking up at him.

"Created them? Their not human?" Edward asked prying Luna off him.

"Humans, no. Physical beings of energy taken in an animal form yes. With Van's power he's able to create physical beings from his power. When I copied it, I was able to add more power to my wolves," She explained eyeing Edward and his expression. Shock flowed through his face as he stare down at his once fragile, human Bella. Then he played back the memory of what Kaname explained about her being able to copy.

Bella read what was in his mind and before she could say anything her cellphone vibrated. She pulled the black phone out of her pocket and put it to her ear.

"Where are you?"

"With the Cullen boys, Lina and Kaname," she answered, " Something the matter Akira-sama?" She asked getting everyone's attention.

"I need you and Edward to come back. Carlisle's looking for him and I need you down in the lab."

"Yes Akira-sama, we'll be there shortly," she said and closed the phone. She turned around to Edward and looked at Lina. "Would you and Kaname be alright with Emmett and Jasper here?"

"We'll be fine Hitomi, go to Akira-sama," Kaname said smirking, wrapping his arms around Lina and nipping her neck.

"Emmett, Jasper?" Bella asked turning to them still with the wolves.

"You're asking us? We'd be fine with or without you guys so yeah don't worry, Bella," Emmett responded with a snort.

Bella smirked and turned to Edward. "Carlisle wants to see you so come with me." then she sprinted into the trees. He followed suit and ran side by side wih her.

Edward's POV

"Bella!" I called. Finally this is my chance to be alone with her. She sighed and looked at me. No answer. "Of all places, why here?"

"Why not? I'm the right hand guard of the second-in-command leader who can easily defeat the Volturi. I have a cousin who's been with me since you left me and a man who loves me for who I am."

The word 'left' stung me deeply. I would never leave her, not again. I love her too much to do it again. "Loves you for you are? Bella I've always love you for who you are."

"Things aren't the same anymore, Edward. I've realized something about you and just thinking about it pisses me off!" She spat. I grabbed her arm and pinned her to a tree. She stared at me with such intensity in her eyes. As if I was a father beating his child.

"Why do you do this to me?" I asked her. Have I really hurt Bella to a point where she utterly and completely hates me?

"Do what Edward? Move on? Have someone who treats me equally? Have people who care and stay by me and my decisions?"

"Bella, I've always cared about your-"

"Don't you dare lie through your teeth!" She threatened. Her eyes now blazing with fury.

"Bella, what will it take for you to love me again?" I miss her. I miss her pink rosy cheeks. I want to hold her in my arms and never let go. I couldn't help myself but to kiss her. God how long it felt to feel her lips on mine. Now I don't have to be careful with her. I closed my eyes and let all our memories flow through me again. The time I kissed her in the meadow, the time I held her in my arms in the hospital. Everything. Then in an instant I was pushed into a tree breaking it in two.

"Know your boundaries!" She cursed. Her back was facing me as she wiped her lips. Again, I was pushed away from my love. Again, I couldn't get her to come back to me.

The rest of the run back was quiet. She didn't say a word to me, let alone look at me. We reached the mansion and immediately walked towards the elevator. We stood there in silence as we passed each floor. Finally, we arrived at underground and I walked out.

"Carlisle needs to speak with you in his room. I assume you know where that is"

"You're not coming?"

"I have been summoned by Akira-sama. So I must go to him," she answered in a lifeless tone. Then the elevator doors closed and that was the last time I saw her for the rest of the week.

-End of Chapter-

SilverCrossesBurningRoses- Now then, I know most of you are all mad or annoyed that its been a long time since I've updated but I have my reasons. I normally use my dad's labtop to type these stories because my computer completely died on me. Due to the fact his labtop froze and I lost every known document I had, including my chapter/resumes etc. And I wasn't able to type because of my injury to the ribs. So, please be patient with me and I will get Chapter Nine up asap. Yes I know, excuses re unforgivable but I need to get things on track first.(School, work, etc)

Please review, I know I say constructive criticism but mind that people have feelings and some reviews are plain rude.
