Chapter 11
Bella's Battle

"Bella, meet Chris Granite, my boyfriend," she explained, linking arms with him.

He gave a wicked smile, showing all his pearly white teeth. Chris was about 6'3, a handsome face with a prominent chin and blonde, shaggy hair. He also had the typical vampire features, pale skin and red eyes with a muscular build. I recognized him immediately, one of the men in Steven's Coven; he didn't even change any of his appearance.

He smirked at me and held out his hand, "It's nice to meet you, I'm Chris,"

"Bella," I spoke out scathingly to him and let his hand hang.

It was an awkward moment as Chris just and I glared at each other.

"Bella?" Carla asked nervously, and just then the door opened to reveal Jonathan again. "Miss Ly?" he asked.

The tension died down somewhat but not by much, "Yes Jonathan?"

"We need some help with a feud between two performers,"

"Alright Jonathan, I'll be down in a moment,"

He nodded his head and disappeared, "Well you two talk and get to know each other, I'm just gonna go," Carla said nervously, running out the door.

The moment it shut, I stomped up to Chris, and pushed him back to the wall, keeping my hand at his neck.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I asked menacingly, although he just smiled innocently at me, "I have no idea what you're talking about," he simply said in a smug tone.

"He's here to use Carla to lure you," Edward said, coming up beside me.

I smirked at him, while he stood there calmly, "I know what you're thinking, even if I don't have a special ability like Edward's. You can easily break out of my hold on you but I'd think twice. You know what I'm capable of.

"I know you brought someone else with you, I can sense them. You have ten minutes to meet me outside the alley or I will personally kill you and make it as gruesomely painful as possible," I hissed at him. I let him go and turned to head out the door with all the Cullen's following behind me.

I quickly met up with Carla, "Hey Carla, I have to go alright. Come visit me in Forks with sometime, here is my number," I wrote down quickly and handed it to her, "I'd love to see you soon. I got to go alright, I had fun,"

"It was awesome seeing you again Bella and I'll definitely call you," we hugged quickly before I headed out the back exit in the Rhythms alley way.

"Bella, what the hell was all that about?" Emmett asked me right away when we were out of sight from everyone else.

"He's from Steven's coven," I stated simply and he had a look of realization on his face.

"Look, I'm sure that he saw you but he doesn't know that I know you are vampires. Chris is smart in some ways, but he's an idiot when it comes to the simplest things, always looking for the complicated method. He will be here soon and I need you all to leave or hide somewhere,"

Edward growled, "No, I won't leave you alone. They could kill you,"

I sighed, exasperated, I don't have time to deal with this, "Fine, Edward you can stay but the rest of you go hide somewhere. They won't notice you because they'll be too focused on me,"

They began to open their mouths to argue but I spoke up before they could, "GO!" I hissed. And they reluctantly disappeared, probably choosing to hide.

I turned to Edward, "I know this is going to be really hard for you but I need you to stay calm. I can't have you lose control alright, I have everything under control and only help when I call for you understand?" I stated firmly.

He was about to argue but my serious glare made him nod, "But if there is any sign of trouble, I will not hesitate to come in alright, same with the rest of us,"

I nodded, that I could agree with.

He leaned in to give me a quick kiss and I smiled at him. "Stay here," I whispered.

I pushed him to stand by the wall while I moved to the middle of the dark alleyway. It was pretty much the typical ones you see, dark, lighted by one back door lantern, wide enough for a fight if necessary, with a fire escape that came from the club. There were also shadows everywhere; the illumination wasn't enough to light up the entire alleyway but just enough to see.

"Don't move," I hissed to Edward as two figures fell from the fire escape and into the light.

One of them was Chris and the other was a female, a long slender body, a beautiful face to match her model-like body, but not enough to top Rosalie in my opinion. She had long, deep red hair that was tied up in a high ponytail but still extended down to almost reach her lower back, strong cheekbones and her red eyes looked like she meant business. She was wearing a black crop top, showing her perfect stomach, and blue jeans. There was belly button ring, a red gem in the shape of a heart, visible from the gleam that was created from the light.

"Alexandra, Chris, lovely to see you here," I spoke in a mock-polite tone.

"Cut the shit Bella, you know what we want," Chris spoke out harshly in his stupid smug tone.

"Now, now Chris you know I play hard to get. I'd rather die before I go with you,"

"Excellent" Alexandra spoke up, her voice with spoke with a British accent, "Then I suppose we should bite you now,"

I scoffed, "I'd like to see you try," I taunted.

Chris growled and crouched down to lunge as I got into battle stance. I heard Edward growl but I turned to give him a warning glance then his eyes widen and I turned back toward Chris and Alexandra to see Chris charging at me.

I jumped up quickly into air, and flipped over him. My killer instincts were kicking in, enhancing my senses and actions.

"Edward, I need you to control her," I shouted to him.

Chris ran at me again and I dodged once more, giving him a roundhouse kick to the face that flung him back against the wall.

I heard a struggle, a cry of frustration from Alexandra and a few grunts. I caught in the corner of my eye that Edward had pinned Alexandra on the ground, sitting on top of her with her arm twisted around her back, while she was face towards the ground. Her feet flailing insanely but Edward was far enough to not get hit.

"Bella watch out!" Edward shouted and before I knew it, I was getting a hit to the stomach and slammed back on the wall, hitting my back loudly before I collapsed onto my knees, clutching my stomach.

My breath came in wheezes and pants and I see that faint shadowed outline of Chris approach me.

"Stay – where – you – are," I gasped out and I saw Chris paused in his step, laughing. He thought I was talking to him but I lifted my head slightly to glance up at the other Cullen's.

They gave me a worried look but I shook my head slightly, making me a tad dizzy.

"Tsk, tsk Bella, I hoped this would've turned out much better," he taunted as he started his pace again towards me.

I didn't break my gaze away from his as I inconspicuously lowered my right arm towards me knee to grip my handle.

He stood in front of me, his huge figure hovering over me, "Shame Bella, but I suppose Steven will be happy in finally getting you. It was very difficult although I thought it was a stupid idea of Thomas to put that bomb in the car,"

He bent down to grab my left arm and before he could even blink, which is pretty damn fast, I grabbed his arm he extended towards me, stood up quickly, twisted it around his back and slammed him against the wall, pointing the blade at his neck.

I smirked as the eye on his right side of the face was looking at me, the other side smashed against the wall. When he saw the blade, he just laughed, "Are you that stupid Bella? You know a primitive blade such as that can't hurt me, let alone kill me,"

"Bella, what are you doing?" Edward shouted at me.

"GET HER NOW CHRIS YOU IDIOT!" Alexandra shouted under Edward's hold.

He tried to struggle but I kept my grip firmly on his arm, "CHRIS YOU ARE PATHETIC!" Alexandra shouted and she struggled violently against Edward's grip.

Then a lightening bolt came out of no where and hit Edward squarely on the chest and flung him backwards.

"EDWARD! I screamed as he hit the wall. Alice was by his side in an instance while Edward groaned from the pain of the burn that was now visible on his chest.

Alexandra looked menacingly at me, her powers flaring. She had the ability to control the weather, it fluctuated with the moods she was feeling and right now she was pretty damn angry.

Chris, well I just think he's plain arrogant and a bit stupid, in my opinion, he would be too idiotic to properly control his power, but he had the ability to change his appearance, the power everyone used.

"Emmett," I stated and he was by my side, holding Chris down.

I grabbed the blade from my other leg and got into battle crouch while Alexandra stood there and watched me with glaring eyes.

The rest of the Cullen's, and Chris, were up against the wall, preparing for the fight they were going to witness.

"You are so stupidly naïve Bella. What do you hope to accomplish with those blades? It cannot injure me; you have no way of survival,"

I turned my head slightly to look at the Cullen's, "Don't move," I hissed at them. I could see they wanted to argue but my glare made them hold their tongues.

A shower of rain began to fall around us, probably Alexandra's power.

I twirled the blades in my hands, "Let's get this over with," I muttered quickly.

Alexandra glared at me hatefully and she pointed her hand at me in which a lightening bolt shot down at me that I just narrowly dodged.

She stood there, smirking at me as she watched my dodges against the lightening bolts she shot at me.

"BELLA WATCH OUT!" Alice screamed as the garbage can I was crouched atop of got hit by a lightening bolt and I screamed as I was flung backwards and hit the wall.

I groaned, my consciousness almost seeping away.

"Oh is Bella tired?" Alexandra mocked me as she disgustingly enjoyed my pain.

"Steven did want you alive, but I'm sure that one more strike won't kill you completely," she taunted.

She lifted her right hand into the air as she swirled it around, moving the clouds with her hand gesture to collect together the swirling amount of energy.

All my instincts were screaming at me to get up but reality was slipping away from me. From my view, I saw Rosalie and Jasper try to step forward but Alexandra had caught them and sent a warning bolt down at their feet to keep them away.

"BELLA GET UP!" I heard a musical voice shout.

"Have a nice nap," Alexandra shrieked, and in one swift movement she shot her hand down to bring the lightening to strike me.

"BELLA!" Edward yelled and my eyes quickly snapped open and on reflex, I lifted my blades to cross in an X formation, blocking my face and the lightening ricocheted off the metal and towards Alexandra. Her eyes widened and she just barely avoided the collection of energy that was aiming straight at her.

She stood up, anger and confusion written all over her face while I staggered onto my feet.

"You little bitch! How the hell did you do that?"

I righted myself up, smirking at her, although I felt something warm and sticky flowing down my side. I lowered my hand to my left rib and when I extracted it, there was blood on my finger tips. I've must've torn something when I was flung backwards.

I could see everyone looking at me, but why weren't they attacking me? The blood should be enticing them.

My blades glowed slightly in my hand and I understood.

"HOW DID YOU DO THAT?" Alexandra screeched, losing her temper extremely quickly. The weather grew worse, flashes of lightening illuminating the scene and thunder roaring all around us, the rain growing even heavier.

I spun the blades once more in my hands, placing them in an X formation to show I was prepared for battle again. "Let's do this," I smirked, the blades of the daggers glowing a faint white colour.

She growled with frustration and ran at me but I stepped aside and shot out my dagger to pierce through her abdomen. Alexandra gasped, frozen in her movements as the rain lightened slightly.

I retracted the blade, leaving a hole clearly visible in her stomach.

She staggered back slightly, placing her hand over the wound, "H-how d-did…?"

'Wow,' I thought to myself, 'these really are strong,'

I smirked, "Want another go?"

Alexandra glared at me, "You bitch, if Steven didn't need you, I would kill you just like how we killed your mother," she sneered.

My drive faltered slightly at the sound of my mother's name. "I may have not been there when we tortured her but my dear Thomas told me all about it, the screams, and the blood, oh when he showed me it was so delicious," she taunted further in hopes of wavering my determination. Instead it increased it, anger fueling my energy, to hurt, to kill, to destroy.

My side was still bleeding, I took one of my hands and smeared blood all over it, then rubbed it onto my blade, and at that moment Alexandra's eyes lit up with desire. I'd have to finish this now and leave. I can't risk the Cullen's in there, but I can see that they're being attracted to the scent; I can only hope they have enough willpower for at least one more minute.

"You can smell this, I know you want it," I called to her, hoping it would tempt her to come closer. My innocence of hating to kill was gone, overcome by anger to destroy the one who laughed at my mother's death, taunted it.

Alexandra took a step closer, I tried to take one too, but the surge of pain rushed through my side, causing me to falter in my step. Alexandra took this as a good sign and ran over to me in vampire speed. Thanks to my heightened senses, I could see her ran and once again, I stepped aside slightly to plunge both my blood-soaked blades into her, one in her abdomen again, and one where her heart should be.

I stood up straighter towards her ear, "You know, hell isn't so bad…you once made me live through it," I whispered to her before the blades shone a dark, menacing red and flames began to arise from it, licking at her, moving all around her until her body was completely engulfed in the fire.

Her screams pierced through the sky, as the lightening flashed through the sky, illuminating her pain-stricken face and the thunder shook the ground, overlapping her blood curdling scream of pain. The fire took her over completely until she was nothing but ash on the ground and on my blades.

The rain lightened up to a drizzle and I loosened my arms so that they were now at my side, but the sway of my arms felt like a huge pressure that my stand wavered slightly and I had to lean up on the wall for support.

"Bella?" I heard Alice whisper out to me and my head snapped up. I forgot they were here and they looked at me with something I couldn't pinpoint mixed with the desire for my blood. It was wrong, this didn't feel right.

I saw the futile struggles of Chris against the wall with Emmett pinning him down.

"I-I," I didn't know what to say, they wanted right now to drink all my blood and they just witnessed me murder someone, then it struck me, I just killed someone. I was a horrible person, a monster.

"I have to go," I whispered frantically before I turned quickly to exit out of the alley to the dark road in front of me, but not before I heard Edward's shout, "BELLA!"

Sorry if I don't update in a while because of all the midterms coming up. I'm also attempting to work on my other story, Quintessence, so I'm sorry if it's a while before I update the next chapter.

I hope you enjoyed it.
