Let me apologize in advance because, I haven't updated in like a month and I said I was back, but what do you know? Family stuff got in the way, but hopefully I'm here to stay...
Bella's POV
The first few days were chaos, there was no other way to describe it, it was a "Lay off Amelia!" there or "Keep away from Emmett!" here or just a plain old cat fight. Once Carlisle even had to break up one the first night there, it was horrible. Edward and I had rarely time alone, because somehow when things had finally got quiet, Amelia would just pop up out of now where and drag him off.
We had finally gotten through two weeks, each day with bickering and cursing. We were counting down the seconds when...
Rosalie had had it.
"Thea you slut! Stop going through Emmett's things! There's nothing there that could help you seduce him!" she screeched. Thea smiled, "Why afraid that you can't hold on to him any longer with your fake Barbie blond personality?" That did it.
Rosalie, a fast, strong, bullet, launched herself at Thea. Suddenly their was a hole in the brick wall and the two tearing each other apart...outside.
"Rose!" Emmett yelled as he ran up the drive way, he had just finished hunting, and saw the two vampires going at each other. "Stop Emmett," Carlisle commanded in a clear voice, "You'll only get hurt, Sophia!"
Sophia ran from outside the house, she took one look at the wall and the mess around the property, and sighed. Then turned to the Rosalie and Thea, who had become immobilized.
"Okay you two, knock it off," sighed Amelia, she did paused by Edward and brushed slowly passed him, I rolled my eyes.
"This obviously isn't working out," I said finally pointing our the obvious, "We may have to go..."
Carlisle was silent for moment, "You may be right." Suddenly, there were nine relieved faces, none more relieved than Edward's.
The moment of silent was broken through by Madeline, "Whhaat!?! You can't go! Not when we were getting to know each other so well!!!"
"She's right Carlisle! We were just getting to know Bella!" Amelia input I looked at her with disbelief; she had completely ignored me throughout these two weeks!!
"Liar!" I blurt out. It was returned with an icy glare from four female vampires.
"Even so," Sophia stepped in front of me, shielding me from the cold chill that was emitting from them, "I don't think it's worth it, to destroy half of your beautiful home, I don't think any of us can live under these conditions any more, even if for only for one more week..."
Madeline sneered back, "I'm sure it's not as nice as your rich mansion is it Sophia? Living as a rich girl, your human life has softened you!"
"Watch your mouth, my life wasn't as simple as yours." growled Sophia.
"I'm sure it wasn't, I mean, I don't mean to say getting raped was good bu--" she couldn't even finish, because, she soon dove into the nearest tree trunk.
"Your right, my life was easy compared to how much I'm going to make you suff--" this time Sophia was cut off, Lillian had thrown her backwards, poor Sophia got to have the pleasure of the house cushion her landing, ouch.
"Sophia!" Derek growled, he positioned to launch himself at Lillian, he was interrupted by Alice, getting there first, "That!" Alice hit her square into the jaw, "Is for my sister! That!" she kicked her square in the chest, "Is for Jasper! And that!" she threw her into the tree, "Is just for fun!" she finished. Jasper tried to emit a wave of calmness, to cover the rivalry.
To make matters worse, Thea and Rosalie resumed their cat fight, Carlisle and Esme had broken up and were looking for Sophia in the rubble. Edward and Emmett went to pull Rosalie off of Thea and Amelia searched the forest for Lillian and Madeline. I could do nothing but stand there like and idiot. But in the middle of all the chaos a voice silenced us all...
"It seems that we have another war upon us gentlemen," three dark figures immerged from the edge of the woods; all were cloaked in darkness, mystery surrounding them. Everyone froze, as one let their hood fall back, it revealed a young brown haired, red-eyed boy. His lips moved quickly as he murmured something to his companions, so low that none of us could hear. Then they too let their hoods fall back. Both pale and with the same crimson red eyes. One was a girl and based on the features she had, she was of Asian origins, and the other was a male, with obvious Hispanic ancestry.
Carlisle emerged from the house, Esme followed, with Sophia. At the same time Amelia came out from the forest towing Lillian, with Madeline limping behind, who was seething with anger. However, when they saw the three unexpected guests they all fell to their knees.
"C-Christian," stuttered Amelia. The rest of us could only gap, surprised at her reaction, how could anyone get such a reaction from such a hard-headed woman?
"Amelia," he answered calmly, "It seems that you were still busy. We apologize; Aro only wished that we check up on you and your coven." I suddenly knew where they had come from. The Voultri.
"Whatever for?" Carlisle asked, even he could not hide his surprise that Amelia had such an important guest.
"It seems that you do not know that your hosts had caused some trouble last year..." snickered the Hispanic.
"Now, now," murmured the Asian, "Let's not get ahead of ourselves, Aro merely said to check up on them."
"That was the original plan, Amanda," Christian smiled, "But plans change, go ahead Diego, you can tell them..." I saw Thea and Lillian's eyes widen, Madeline seemed to shake a little, and Amelia stiffened.
"It seems that your hosts here have not told you that they continue to hunt humans," Diego began, I heard Esme gasp, but Carlisle nodded, motioning for them to go on, "They began a...business, in the south, about three years ago, where they kidnap humans, children most likely and use them as what we call 'refrigerators'." Edward was suddenly at my side and had pulled me closer to him.
"How is that possible if their eyes are golden?" Jasper finally spoke.
"You see, when you drink a human's blood, fresh, your eyes are red. When you drink from an animal, your eyes are bronze, a gold color. However, if you drink from, a blood that is already extracted from a human, like you take it out already, and then drink it, it becomes like an animals, please don't ask us how. We have not figured that part out yet. It would have been alright, just the same as eating from a human, maybe even better since they only have to take one or two. Humans have rapid cell production. The problem was that they began to sell the blood to make money; vampires intrigued with the idea came from all over the world. Therefore, when demand goes up, so must the supply, they began to kidnap too many mortals and that of course called some attention from the media. Naturally, we had to step in..."
"So, why did you let them live?" accused Alice.
"Well, they didn't actually kill anyone, just kidnapped them, besides they made a deal with Aro..." shrugged Christian.
Alice's eyes narrowed, "What deal?"
Before he could answer, I was suddenly yanked away by Edward, who threw me into the house; he crouched in front of me, growling. Alice had dodged Lillian's grab and had her in an arm lock. Emmett, realizing the signal tackled Diego and had pinned him on the grown. Rosalie snapped kicked Thea, and a sickening crunch sounded. Sophia barely had to move, as she again had Madeline fall to the ground, as the confused Amanda punched her; ah, the beauty of mind control. When they settled, they both froze.
The only one standing was Christian, despite his comrades being captured, he smiled, "Whoops, look like you caught on. Good job... But, not good enough."
There was suddenly a bright flash and he, Diego and Amanda, were gone; Emmett was suddenly holding nothing.
"YOU BASTARDS!! LEAVING US HERE!!!" cursed Amelia, it didn't matter because she and the others were suddenly surrounded by 10 angry vampires.-
Carlisle stood towering over them, "I believe you deserve us an explanation."
Thank you for waiting! Please review!
