Chapter Nine

Bree's POV

Not even five minutes later we where ten miles away in a huge clearing. To say I was nervous was an understatement, even though I meant what I said to Seth. I did have tricks up my sleeve, tricks that Jasper or anyone didn't know about. If I had my way, I wouldn't have one finger lain on me, even if all four of them came at me at once. But still, looking at Jasper, with the marring that covered every inch of his skin, made me uneasy. Usually I never had to use my gift - other than using my extra sense to find out what was around me at all times - when I was with Fred. His power kept everyone away and made me feel safe as I didn't have to think about protecting myself. I was brought out of my thoughts when Jasper spoke.

"What type of fighting style would you say you had, before we begin?" He said in his southern drawl. I looked at him in confusion - I didn't have a fighting style. Although I was in the newborn army, I never really proactively fought as I had Fred and Diego looking out for me.

"I don't." I answered honestly.

"You were in a newborn army, but they never trained you? I knew that when we faced them they were sloppy, but to have no training at all?" I stopped him before he could continue his rant.

"I didn't say, we did train. Just that I never." I continued when everyone silently looked at me for more. "I never really needed too. Diego kind of looked out for me." More than kind of, my mind reiterated, remembering our stolen kisses. Although thinking of them now made me feel guilty. Thinking of any guys I have ever been with made me feel guilty. It must be the imprint, I thought.

"Okay." Jasper said slowly. "We'll just start with sparring and see how you do and what you need to improve on. So I will start on attacking you and you block, okay?"

"I don't need to learn how to fight." I told him truthfully.

He looked to the others and then back to me. "We are one of the largest covens in the world. If we were ever challenged, you would need to know how to fight." Jasper told me.

"He's right sweetie. You need to know how to protect yourself." I looked over at my Mom and smiled.

"I get that, I do. But I still don't need to know how to fight."

Jasper huffed. "Okay, I'll bite." He said with a sly grin, showing that he meant to use the pun. "Why don't you need to know how to fight."

I answered him simply. "Because if I didn't want you within a mile of me, you wouldn't be." He laughed loudly at this and so did Dad. Alice and my Mom just watched in a wary silence.

"Really? You think your shield is that strong?" Jasper taunted.

Oh, I'm not talking about my shield, I said mentally while I just smirked at him.

"Okay." I started. "Attack me, and I'll show you what I mean." I subconsciously placed a thought in both his and Dad minds' while I spoke. He smile slyly, but didn't move. Nothing changed at all, not even the smile, he was a real statue and not just a vampire statue. I used my power to temporarily drain his and turned my head when I heard a gasp. It was Alice and by the look on her face I knew Jasper had been removed from the future she was seeing. Not that I was going to kill him - just because he was literally a statue right now, with no way of moving forward. I checked her vision and sure enough he had been removed. I looked towards Dad and snorted, causing Mom to turn and Alice to come out of her vision and turn also. He was currently walking in circle, bobbing his head and flapping his arms. Like a chicken would do. Both Alice and Mom burst out laughing and looked to me.

"What power is that?" Mom gasped.

"A little bit of suggestion." I told her, stilling as he started to cluck. "Although I only told him to walk like a chicken." That started us all laughing until Alice turned back to her husband.

"Jasper?" She asked me.

"Suggestion again. Don't worry he's fine." To prove my point I reversed what I had done and planted another suggestion in both of them as they finished with the states they were currently in.

"Rosy, I thought you promised me bear!" My Dad whined, coming to put an arm around Mom's shoulders.

"Yeah Darlin' there nothin' to hunt for miles around." Jasper told Alice. Both girls snorted and looked to me. "What?" Jasper asked. I laughed but reversed the suggestion again and Jasper's face turned from confusion to amazement. "How did you do that."

"Suggestion." I told him.

"My powers?" He asked, remembering his frozen state.

"I temporarily drained them. There'll be no lasting effects, don't worry." I said.

"Oh I'm not. How many other powers do you have?" He asked curiously.

"Some." I said with a smile, hoping that this was a good conversation and he wasn't mentally using me just for my power.

"My, my, sugar, your more special than any of us knew. Not that it makes any difference, other than the fact that I'll take your word, you don't need to fight." I sighed in relief at all of his statement and smiled as we started to make our way back across the field.

We we're almost to the tree line, still talking to one another when I realized we were one person short and looked back to were we where moments before. I snorted, which had the others turning to look at where I was looking. What they saw had them laughing, because even though we we're a football field and a half away, we could still see crystal clear. The image will be forever burnt in my brain of my Dad flapping his arms, squatting down with an almost constipated look on his face. I laughed out loud when I realized that he was 'laying an egg' just like a chicken would do.

"I didn't do that." I told them. Guess side-affects only happen with special people, I thought.
