Isabella's POV
After telling Emmett about my real family and life, he was speechless. I guess he would suspect that, considering that I was hearing about it as well. Emmett sighed, and laid back down. I asked him if he was in pain, and he said no, he was just shocked. I placed my hand on his forehead. He told me I was still warm, and wondered about my cold.
"Can you take the sickness off her?" Emmett asked Leslie.
"Witches are more human-like than vampires are. We can get sick, but of course there's a spell to keep that from happening." Leslie said. "There's a spell for everything."
"I take that as a yes." Emmett said. Emmett was still transitioning into a vampire. He wouldn't be doing this again, if it weren't for me. "What's wrong Bella?"
"I was just... thinking about some things. That's all." I said. We weren't really together like I wanted to be. "I need some air." I walked out towards the balcony. Leslie, of course, followed me. I overlooked the city that was below me, trying to get my mind off of things.
"What's wrong Bella?" Leslie asked.
"Nothing. I'm just thinking." I said, trying to make her go away.
"You can't lie to a witch. I know how you're feeling."
"So why'd you ask?" I asked. I got her stumped there. I laughed a little, and told her I wanted to be alone.
"I can't just walk away. The Council specifically told me to keep an eye on you, and protect you."
"I don't need to be protected. I can handle myself." I said. Leslie sighed, and stood next to me.
"No you can't. Isabella, don't you see? Your emotions are growing over you again. Watch Bella. If you don't calm down now, you'll start a fire somewhere in this city. Fire means anger, and that's not good. If it rains, your sad. If it's sunny, you're happy. Have you ever noticed the weather matching your moods? It happened a lot with me, when I was beginning at this." Leslie said. "So calm down. What has you mad anyways?"
"I sort of blame myself for things a lot. It's nothing. I'll get over it, I just want to be alone for right now." I said. I tried to sound stern with her, but she barely moved. "Please."
"Alright. But five minutes." she said. Leslie walked back into the main room. I held onto the edge, trying to calm down. I knew Emmett wouldn't want me like this. So I took a deep breath. But just before I could calm myself all the way down, Rose decides to join me. I bit my lip as hard as I could, trying not to cuss at her.
"You know, Emmett said we should put a hold to our relationship because of you." I said to her. "He wasn't ready for any of this. He wasn't ready to see you again. But I suppose it's my fault for this happening. I did turn him human. And-" Then it popped into my mind. "You want to become human, don't you?"
"I wasn't out here for that, Isabella. I promise you." she said. Like I could trust her. "And I already knew, because I heard you two. And I'm sorry. I want the best for Emmett, I do. I wish I could just leave as long as you two want me to. But I can't do that, and I'm sorry. It is all my fault this happened. Not yours. Isabella you're perfect for Emmett. And even before I started cheating on him, I saw that he was a lot more happier with you than he was with me."
"Because you were selfish enough to love yourself more than you loved him. Listen, you make it seem like you've been the only one who's been through something terrible Rosalie. And people give you their sympathy but it's like you don't thank them for it. Come on, Rose, don't you see that everything is about you. And it shouldn't. It's so annoying. God, I hated that about you." I said. I was getting angrier by the second. "You make me so mad Rosalie. But now I have to control it. So when I say get away from me, get away from me. I'll probably light you on fire. Oh, and stay away from Emmett. If I see you around him any time soon, I'll hurt you. And you know I will be able to." I walked away from her that time. I felt a little bad-ass now. She deserves it. She's the one who ruined Emmett's life. That's all I wanted for Emmett now, was a good life. And this damn... girl ruined it. I sighed and went back to Emmett. Who was lying down again.
"What's wrong?" I asked him.
"Your powers only limit so much Bella. You weren't able to keep the pain off of him that long. It's common for newcomers." Leslie said.
"So, why don't you help him?" I asked. "I don't want him going through this again."
"Alright, alright." she said. She didn't do anything. She just looked at Emmett for a second and looked away.
"Did you do it?" I asked.
"Yes. I'm experienced enough not to touch someone to do something for them. You'll learn soon. Especially since the Council is helping you." she said.
"You don't have to do that." Emmett said.
"Well, I insist." I said. "I'm the reason why you have to go through this again."
"Bella, it was an accident." he said. I rolled my eyes, and sat next to him. I wanted him to hold me. I wanted him to kiss me too, but that wasn't going to happen.
"Bella, tell me. What's wrong?" he asked.
"Nothing. I'm just tired." I said.
"Bella, you're still a bad liar." he said. "Tell me. Please."
"It's nothing Emmett."
"Fine..." he mumbled. He slightly turned away from me. I didn't want this to happen now. Not at the beginning of this. It's just I wanted to talk in private.
"I'll tell you later." I said. I poked his side, wanting him to face me again. He looked at me, and sighed.
"You don't have to."
"No, we should talk about it. But too many people are listening." I said. They were listening, and looking at us too. They didn't take off their eyes from us. It was a little creepy...
"I think their watching you Bella. You are a witch now." True...
"Okay. Leslie likes to sleep, and when Leslie doesn't get any sleep, she gets cranky. And she's a witch, that's not a good combination." Leslie said. I sighed and pulled Emmett with me to go into a bed, and get Leslie a bed. Leslie sighed, saying finally. Emmett and I laid next to each other, not touching or talking, until Leslie fell asleep. Once she fell asleep, Emmett kissed my cheek.
"I thought-" I began. But he stopped me, by kissing my lips. I giggled a little, and pulled the covers over our heads. I didn't need Leslie butting in at this moment.
"I've been wanting to do that all day." he said.
"Good." I said. "But why did you want to put a hold on this?"
"I don't... really want to tell you. There's just so much going on, and I was afraid of what you would think or do, so I just put a hold on us. But obviously, it didn't last long.
"What was it about?" I asked. "You can tell me Emmett. I'm not going to judge you."
"It's about Rosalie." he said. And that was all it took. He still wasn't over her. I nodded, not saying anything. "Tell me, what's on your mind?"
"Nothing..." I said.
"Bella. We can't hide things from each other. It'll get worse later on." he said.
"I know. It's just... I was hoping you would be done with her by now. I don't like this..." I admitted.
"I can't help it Bella. And what were you two talking about?"
"Noth-" I began. "I just told her to stay away from you... or I'll kill her." Emmett began laughing loudly. Then Leslie got mad and told us to shut up or get out. I smacked Emmett a little, trying to get him to be quiet.
"You're hilarious Bella. That's what I like about you." Emmett said. Emmett and I began quiet till we fell asleep. We just laid there, trying to fall asleep. But I woke up, about two hours later. Emmett was still asleep, and I wasn't as tired. So I got up and walked around. Of course, the place was dark, everybody was off in bed somewhere. I found my way to the Wives Tower. I wondered if Aro and Caius stayed with them. But where would Marcus go? Poor Marcus. He just seems so depressed all the time. I walked back to the room, feeling tired again. I laid there for about an hour. Emmett rolled over, pulling himself on top of me. I felt comfortable and finally fell asleep.
In the morning, I went to the balcony. I stood up and waited for someone else to wake up. I sighed and looked over the city. It was bright out today, and then sun was blazing my eyes a little. I remembered what Leslie said about the weather matching the witches emotions. I didn't know whether it was mine or not, but my powers were limited, so probably not. I couldn't tell if I was happy or not. I sighed again and started to turn back to the bedroom. But Edward was standing there, watching me.
"What do you want?" I asked, sternly.
"I think we should talk about this, Bella. I know, that you and Emmett are going to be together now, I don't mind. I don't. And I wanted to apologize about this. But can I ask you not to be so... rude towards Rosalie? She's trying to fix this Bella, and you keep pushing her off." he said. How dare he try and pull this on me...
"Excuse me? I'm not the one who decided to cheat on someone. I loved you Edward. I did. Now, I want you dead. You be careful with what you say to me, Edward." I said. Then I heard thunder crackle behind me. "I don't want you to ever put this on me."
"I'm not putting this on you." He said. "I don't want you and Rose to fight."
"Oh please. You're asking me to forgive Rosalie, for what she did to Emmett and I. You think after a week, and a couple days that I would forgive you two. How stupid are you Edward? I don't want you to ever, try and pull this on me again, or I'll kill you." I said. "Stay away from me. When we want to forgive you, we will. Don't ask me forgive you. You need to earn it, both of you."
"I didn't mean to turn this into an argument. I'm asking to at least listen to Rose." he said.
"I know. Stay away from us." I said, and walked away. I heard the thunder becoming very strong. Maybe it was me, controlling the weather. There was a sudden pain in my chest, and I shook it off. Then everyone came into the main room.
"Look at that weather." Carlisle said. "It's bad."
"It's not often we get thunderstorm's in Italy." Marcus said.
"Well, it's not Italy. It's Bella." Leslie said. "I can tell when a witch is using her powers." Leslie walked next to me. "You're mad, and you need to calm down. It can get worse Isabella. So go to Emmett, remember he's your relaxer." Leslie pushed me into Emmett. I couldn't tell if he's human or not. But he was still transitioning. I sighed and wrapped my arms around him.
"What's wrong?" Emmett asked.
"It's just that, certain people like to piss me off." I said. "The thunder is my fault." I put my head on Emmett's chest. I heard his soft heartbeat starting to fade. Then Carlisle yanked me off of him.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
"He's changed Bella. You smell like a human." he said. Leslie and I moved all the way across the room. I knew that he wasn't going to hurt me.
"We can change our scents." Leslie said.
"Into what?" I asked.
"Well not really change it, but hide it." Leslie said.
"I'd prefer you hide it." Aro said.
"It's already done." Leslie said. Emmett's eyes turned red. He was a vampire once again.
Emmett's POV
My visibility changed back to it's normal vampire state. Isabella and Leslie were across the room. I was a little disappointed, by the way they stood awa from me. I could see that Bella wasn't afraid of him. She smiled at me, and threw her hair behind her shoulder. I smiled at walked over to her. Shockingly, I couldn't smell her, like I always could. It was gone. Did I lose part of my senses?
"Leslie hid our scents." she said, noticing my questioning expression. I looked outside, seeing the thunderous storm, fading. I sort of got angry, at the idea of having to redo my entire controlling. Dammit...
"What's wrong Em?" Bella asked me.
"I have to... nothing." I said. Bella deeply blamed herself for changing me into a human.
"Tell me." she insisted.
"It's nothing Bella. So, when am I going hunting?" I asked.
"You're not going to. I've already hunted for you." Carlisle said.
"Really?"
"Gross..." Leslie said. Carlisle and I walked to somewhere else. He gave me two gallons of animal blood. I chugged it down, quickly. I came back, to see everyone sitting on the floor. The Volturi, of course, sitting in there high and mighty thrones. I sat next to Bella and Leslie.
"We are here, to talk about the fight that will take place in less than a year." Aro said.
"Hold on, what fight?" Leslie asked.
"Someone has been making a newborn army. We all have to be in this fight. There's no backing out of it. Originally, Bella was to be changed, into a vampire, to help with the fight." Caius said.
"That's not ever going to happen... As a witch, we are not to interfere with a vampire's problems, unless our Council allows us to help. Otherwise, Isabella will not be in this fight. None of us will." Leslie said.
"Well this is a problem." Caius said.
"It's not a problem. We will not be in this fight of yours. It's your problem. And you need to handle it without us. As Isabella's guardian, and a messenger for the Council, she is to be protected from any dangers at any moment." Leslie said.
"Shouldn't that be my decision?" Bella asked.
"No, the Council wants you to be in their hands, rather than Miranda's. You could possibly become part of the Council. That's why they're so protective of you Isabella."
"Why do they want me to become part of the Council? I'm not even experienced. Shouldn't you be part of them?" she asked.
"No. See, you know the vampires, more than any other witch does. Orin, he knows the werewolves very well, so they added him in. Vincent is a very old man, he's been in this Council since the beginning. Gary, Penelope, and Katherine, their a lot stronger than the ordinary witch. Now they want someone who's good with vampies, which lead to you." Leslie said. Bella sighed, and looked at me.
"I'm good with vampires? That's funny. If I was so good with vampires, the Volturi would love me." Bella said. I laughed. Caius didn't really like Bella... He thought she was very, annoying.
"I don't mind Bella, at all." Marcus said. "It's just Caius." Everyone in the room laughed. Well, not everyone.
"Oh my God." Leslie said, suddenly.
"What's wrong?" Bella asked.
"The Witches Council. They're here." Leslie said. Leslie stood up, pulling Isabella with her.
"Why are they here?" I asked.
"They want to talk to the Volturi." Leslie said.
All the guards shifted their positions. They went over to the stairs, sitting on them, 'protecting' them. Then five people came in, two women, and three men. They were wearing black robes. The inside was golden. They pulled their hoods off, and flipped their robes to gold.
"Ah, Isabella. Nice to see you again." a red-headed woman said.
"It's nice to see you again. All of you." Bella said.
"We would like to have a widely discussion with the Volturi. If you wouldn't mind." another woman said. She was gorgeous. Blonde hair. Nice figure...
"That's fine, with them." Jane said. "Would you like this to be private?"
"No. The vampires would hear anyways." a man said.
"We could always block the room Orin." the blonde one said.
"I'm afraid I don't know your names." Caius said.
"I am Vincent. This is Katherine, Orin, Penelope, and Gary." he said pointing to each of them.
"I heard a fight was going to begin soon. My witches are not to be in this." Orin said.
"But we're willing to make a treaty with you." Penelope said.
"We wouldn't want to begin a fight with both of our kinds against each other, now would we?" Gary said. All five of them seemed kind of, scary. Penelope looked at me, and smiled. Her blonde hair reminded me a little bit about Rosalie.
"You have a newborn here." Penelope said. "Dangerous..."
"That's Emmett, Penelope." Bella said.
"Oh, I see. I'm amazed you changed him back so quickly. I thought you would have waited a while." Orin said.
"No, they changed me..." I said. "Not that I didn't mind but, whatever..."
"He is very handsome, Bella." Katherine said. Bella smiled, and said I know.
"Keep this in mind, you need to be careful around him. You're still new to this, Bella." Gary said. "Now let's begin this discussion. In the matters of Isabella, we would love to help you in this fight. Orin has already talked to the werewolves about this problem your having. They would be gladly to help. As for us, we will help, but under a treaty."
"Isabella has a strong connection to some of you. When a witch has a feeling for a certain kind, that most likely would be considered our enemies, the Council is not allowed to hurt that bond. I would like to make a treaty, regarding all of your Covens and our nobles." Vincent said.
"And what would consist in this treaty?" Aro asked.
"We don't want anybody to start a war with each other. Our nobles, do things on their own. Sometimes, but rarely, a Witches War is introduced, just like your Newborn Army. However, we haven't had one in 79 years. If something like that were to happen, we would ask for your help. And vise versa. We are willing to help in this, if your willing to help us whenever a war breaks out." Katherine said. The Volturi agreed with this. I wondered how a Witches War began anyways.
"This is truly the only reason we came. We gather up at least 50 other powerful witches. One of them is including Isabella. However, we do want to experiment with one of your vampires. Recently, we studied all of you, and what you were capable of. The one that stood out to us the most, was Alice. She has a power the vampires rarely have. But we want her to do more, than see a vision." Orin said.
"We want her to see an Absolute Vision. And by the way she's reacting to this, she wouldn't mind doing this with us." Penelope said.
"An Absolute Vision. What is that?" I asked.
"There are no holes. No one is blocking her. And there is no doubt into the future with what she sees. In other words, her vision will be 100 percent guaranteed." Gary said.
"I want to do it!" Alice exclaimed. "I want to try it."
"Hold on Alice. There are no consequences to this, right? It's not going to hurt her." Jasper said.
"No, it will not badly affect her. She will be safe." Orin said.
"Let's do it." Alice said. She was jumping up and down with excitement. I laughed a little. Man, you could never get enough from this girl. The five of them grabbed hands, and closed their eyes.
"Don't touch her Jasper." Leslie said. The five of them started to say something. I think it was in Russian... Alice gasped a little, and looked around. The Council stopped and smiled.
"How do you feel?" Jasper asked.
"I can see. The fight. Everything. I know who it is." Alice said. "It's Victoria..."
Yes Victoria is alive, the whole thing with Eclipse doesn't exist in this story. Alice can see everything now, without any doubt about the future. The Council and the Volturi have made a small treaty. And Isabella may be apart of the Council sometime soon. Now the Council will stay... I wonder what happens with them staying around with the Volturi. O.o I know what happens :P Review please.
