Chapter 8 I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT

Hey guys I am so sorry it has taken me so long to update. I hope you can forgive me and I promise to get back on track.

I could hear my family warming up for training as we neared the field. Before I even saw Alice I could practically

feel the joy and excitement bubbling out of her as she danced all around the field. Edward and I stepped into the field

as all eyes turned to us smiling. Alice was the first one over throwing her arms around my neck while jumping up and

down like a little kid. "Oh Bella! I am so happy for you! We have to start planning asap!" she released me from her

tight embrace as I was passed around fromm Esme to finally Rosalie. Edward and the boys had gone over to begin practicing.

"You know, Bella, that I have always considered you my daughter." Esme said as she squeezed my hand.

I was startled as Rosalie pulled me to the side by my arm. "Bella, I just wanted to apologize for the way that

I have treated you in the past. I know you must think that I hate you but I really don't. You have brought such joy

to my family, something that we hadn't seen for a long time, and for that I will forever be grateful to you." She

smiled at me before continuing. "I will be so happy to call you my sister." "Thank you, Rosalie." She hugged me

before we walked back over to where our family had gathered to wait for us. Edward was eyeing me

playfully as I took my place beside him and grasping his outstretched hand. Jasper took his place in front of us

as he began his lesson. "Ok. The wolves are not going to be an easy kill but they will not be impossible.

The main thing is to stay away from their head. If you ever get close enough for them to bite you, the war will be

lost. You must attack from the sides. Now assuming that they will try to get reinforcements we all need to brush up

on our skills for attacking others like us. Bella since you are new to this and I am sure that Edward will want your action

to be limited watch Alice as I attack her." I nodded as he motioned for Alice to come up to him. She glided across the short

distance smiling playfully at him. He lowered himself into a crouch and began to snarl and growl at her. I wanted to jump

up to save her but I also knew that Jasper would never hurt Alice in any way. Jasper began to circle her as she mimicked his

every move. I saw as he lunged for her but she neatly dodged him by simply stepping to the side. They repeated the process

several more times before Jasper called me up. He had paired me up with Emmett who wore a huge grin on his face.

"Get ready to go down lil sis." Emmett growled at me. I hear Edward growl from somewhere behind me but I just ignored it.

"Ok Bella, remember the objective is not to attack yet just dodge." Jasper said. I nodded as I crouched down a few feet

away from Emmett. I felt a snarl rippling up in my chest as he began to circle me. He laughed darkly just as he made his

move and lunged for me. I merely stepped to the side giggling as he barreled off uncontrollably into the trees. I had

fought with Emmett one other time since I had become a vampire but this time was different I couldn't quite put my

finger on it. "Very good, Bella. Carlisle you're next." Edward was more than happy for me to finish my turn and return to

his side. He hated the idea of me

fighting against the wolves but I was part of this family now and whether or not he liked it, I had a roll to play.

I was through with sitting on the side lines watching my family risk their lives for me. For the rest of the night we

stayed out in the field training unitl the sun came up over the trees. We all retreated back home except Rose and Emmett

but we won't go over to that subject. The atmosphere was slightly tense as we all kept ourselves busy with

idle tedious chores. Edward and I settled on watching a movie in the living room. I was curled up in his lap playing

with a loose thread on his shirt when we heard glass being shattered up stairs. I lurched off of Edward's lap and

flew up to Alice and Jasper's room faster than anyone else. Jasper was sitting in the floor clutching Alice to his

chest as she lied limp in his arms. Carlisle was at their side checking her over but couldn't find any physical

injuries. "Carlisle, what is wrong with her? Vampires don't just pass out!" Jasper said on the verge of hysterics.

I know he couldn't help it but he was affecting everyone's emotions causing us all to panic and become anxious even

more. "What was she doing when she fainted?" "She had just received a vision." "I think Alice's mind may be

overloaded. When one's mind is under too much stress it will close off in order to protect itself and heal.

Jasper, I am sure she will wake up soon. Put her in bed and keep a close eye on her for any change."

Jasper lifted her effortlessly and laid her gently on the huge bed. He was on the verge of sobbing as he

dropped his head in his hands. I knelt beside him and put a hand on his shoulder, "Jasper, everything is

going to be ok. You know Alice would fight to the ends of the earth to be with you. She just needs some time

to rest and let her mind strengthen. I know she will be fine." I got up and left with Edward as we made our way

to our own room. As we lied in bed I couldn't help but wonder what Alice had seen that had caused her to go into

some sort of shock. My mind flooded with the different possibilities.
