RoadTrip With the Cullens

Chapter 11: Seeing Red

EdPOV

Tanya is an annoying little insect that keeps buzzing in my ear. Kate, Garrett, and my brothers had gone on a tour of the house, leaving Tanya and I alone in the room. She seemed to think that we were spending the night here. I refused to do it.

That little bitch was bluffing. There's no way she can hear my thoughts. Edward will be mine. I wonder if he will live here with me. I'm sure he wouldn't want to take me away my sisters. But he wouldn't want to leave his siblings either....we'll talk about it once he gets a divorce. Tanya was pacing the floor.

"There are a few things wrong with that. Number one, my Bella is not a little bitch, and you will refrain from calling her so. Number two, Bella does not 'bluff' as you so ignorantly put it. Number three, I will never be yours. And number four, Bella and I do not believe in divorce. That is why we got married in the first place, because we are meant for each other. She loves me as much, of not more, as I love her." I smiled when I thought about my Bella. She is my little piece of perfection...of Heaven. As close as I will probably get.

"You're just saying that Edward." She smiled and sashayed to me.

"Yes, I am saying that, and I damn well mean it." I growled at her.

"You know you were meant for me." Tanya placed her hand on my chest.

"Don't touch me!" I barked and jumped back four feet. "You will not touch me again."

"Oh but I will Edward. And you're going to touch me too. Isn't that right?"

"What the hell is wrong with you?" I asked. There was something seriously wrong with her mind.

"Nothing baby. Why would you ask that?"

"I'm not your baby Tanya. Stop calling me that. Stay back!" I hissed as she began to cross the distance that had been placed between us.

"Tanya!" Kate yelled from upstairs. "Come here please." Bella's going to kill her soon. I can feel it.

"I'll be back lover boy." Tanya said and dashed up the stairs.

I think I might kill her.

Bella POV

"Bella, you're an evil little genius!!" Rose screamed. "I didn't think you had it in you."

I cocked my hip out to the side and placed my hand on it. "I have been plotting before you even knew me." I smiled. "David, you got the plan?"

"Yes." He smiled at me. Beautiful and an evil genius. She's perfect.

"I don't know about that last part, but thank you anyway." I told him and he took off towards the house. I threw my shield after him to protect his mind from Edward.

"Bella, I can see that this plan is going to work perfectly!" Alice cheered.

"You know, I've never liked Tanya. Even when we first met them, and she was all over Edward. He gently refused her, but this...this is beyond an invasion of personal space. It's mutiny!" Rose joked. "But seriously, I don't like Tanya."

"Me either." Alice admitted. "And that time she tried to make a move on my Jazzy almost made me kill her."

"Well, I'm not going to kill her....but I am going to do some major damage." I smiled again.

"Okay, Bella, now you're starting to scare me." Alice stepped back a bit.

"Sorry Alice." I shook off my evil smirk and resumed a straight face.

David POV

"Hey guys." I said when I got back to the Derali house. At least, I think that's what Bella called it. Maybe it was Defali....Delali? Oh, it was Denali!! Yeah, that's it! I rush back to the Denali house and see Tanya and Edward in the living room. She was coming at him like a cat in heat. It was quite sickening. If only Edward wasn't refusing her, my life would be so much easier. I waited until Tanya was called upstairs to her sister and I entered the house. "Hey Edward."

"Hello David." He pinched the bridge of his nose in exasperation and frustration.

"What's up?"

"I really don't know."

Everyone came from upstairs and things started falling into place. Kate and Garrett left to go find Carmen and Elezear a present for their honeymoon, and Tanya decided to go with them after a deadly look from Kate. They offered to let us play some video games and we accepted.

"So, what were you and Tanya down here doing Eddiekins?" Emmett taunted.

"Fuck off Emmett." Edward growled.

"That's what you wanted to do to Tanya, isn't it?" Jasper smiled.

"Guys, leave Edward alone. He would never hurt Bella." I laughed on the inside when I said that. If Bella hadn't told me what to say, I'm sure I would have offended Edward like the others.

"Thank you David." He looked at me and scrunched his eyebrows together. I had to keep myself from laughing because I could tell he was frustrated that he couldn't read my mind. I took a deep breath to keep myself from smiling. Tanya should be here in a little bit with her little surprise for our dear Edward.

EdPOV

There was something going on and I wanted to know what it was. I couldn't read David's mind, which meant Bella was hiding something that he knew. It frustrated me to no end how my Bella loved to keep certain secrets from me. I made a mental note to punish her for that later.

"David, you are keeping something from me, what is it?" I said lowly.

"Nothing that you won't find out soon enough." He replied and sat beside Emmett, picking up a controller, and began to play whatever mindless game they were playing. I have never had an intrest in video games, but my brothers seemed to love them. It was quite entertaining seeing them get so worked up over nothing but a silly game. I walked to the couch and sat on the back of it, studying that David character. Something about him wasn't right to me. Bella seemed to trust him, but that didn't prove anything. She wasn't that hard.

So you're calling me easy Edward? Her voice filled my mind.

Damnit, how could I forget that she could hear my thoughts.

I don't know how you could forget. I think you're slow somtimes. But I still love you.

Of course she loves me. Though I still say I don't deserve it. But I love my Bella as well.

You do deserve my love, every ounce of it. And I love being your Bella.

I smiled at that last comment. As I was about to reply, Bella's shield claimed her mind and her thoughts disappeared from my mind. I hate it when she does that, but it always keeps me guessing, and wanting more.

As I took my next breath, I visibly stiffened. Tanya was back.

BPOV

"It's time dear sisters!" I said and smiled evilly. We all crouched, and prepared to spring. Just a few more minutes.....

AlPOV

This is going to be so much fun!! Both of my sisters are crouched and ready for action. In about five minutes, our plan will commense. I'm so excited!!

RoPOV

Damn, Bella is good. I'm beyond ready for this. I can almost taste the sweet revenge.

EdPOV

Tanya wasn't supposed to come back for another two hours. And when she did, she was supposed to have Kate and Garrett with her. What's going on. I stood up and cautiously approached her, wanting to go find my Bella after reading the plan in Tanya's head.

"Hiya Tan!" Emmett greeted when he noticed her standing in the doorway.

She didn't even acknowledge that he'd said anything. "Edward!" She screamed and lunged at me.

BPOV

"NOW!" We all took off towards the house at full speed. In thirty seconds, we were at the house, and saw Tanya on top of Edward on the floor, kissing him. My beautiful husband didn't want to hurt the bitch, but he didn't want her touching him. He was struggling under her weight. I growled and Tanya jumped up quickly. I could feel something going on inside my body, and the next thing I was seeing was red. "Tanya." I growled lowly, venom in my word.

"I'm sorry Bella, but Ewdard has chosen to be with me. It's okay, you can have everything you want in the divorce." She said and put her hand on her hip. Oh shit.

"Damn Tanya." Emmett said and shook his head. "You've really messed up now."

Edward got off of the floor and came to my side. "Bella, love, please calm down."

"." I spat out. She took off out of the house and I was right behind her.

Ohshitohshitohshit. She thought as she ran. Before she got too far, she tripped over something and fell, face first in the dirt. I grabbed her hair and punched her in the face, smiling when I heard her nose break. Her arms were flailing in the air, but her struggling only made me laugh bitterly. My foot connected with her abdomen, and sent her flying back into a couple of trees. Tanya cried out as her back collided with a large boulder, then slid down onto the ground.

I charged at her at full speed and crouched to the level of her face. "See, now you shouldn't mess with me. If you value your life, you wouldn't do anything stupid. Like try to cut me with that piece of rock you have hidden behind yur back." I jumped out of the way as she slashed at the air in an attepmt to wound me. When she'd swung all the way around, I grabbed her arm and ripped it out of its socket. I held it in one hand and tapped it against the other. "I told you not to mess with me, but you did it anyway. I didn't think you were that stupid."

Tanya's severed arm reached to grab my throat in a weak, mis-guided attempt to choke me. Before it made contact with me, I used it to slap Tayna. Her head jerked violently, and I knew that the blow would've killed a human. That pleased me. I laughed again and threw the useless limb to the ground, watching as it crawled back to its owner.

"It would do you well to leave Edward and I alone. But you may kiss him again if you wish to be destroyed. Oh how I wish Kate was here."

As if on cue, Kate and Garrett entered the clearing where we were.

"What's going on?" Kate asked.

"Tanya kissed Edward and now Bella's pissed." Emmett explained.

"I told her to leave him alone. But does she listen? No. I hope Bella teaches her a lesson." Kate shook her head.

"Kate, do you mind if I borrow your power for a minute?" I asked.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, I can place my shield on a person and use their power for any given amount of time. That's how I'm able to read minds like Edward. So, do you mind?"

"Of course not." Kate smiled.

I removed my shield from Edward's mind, and placed it on Kate's. I felt her power surge through me and I smiled, yet again. It felt like I could send it to Tanya, so I closed my eyes and let the power flow through me, and it left my fingertips. I heard Tanya scream in pain as a blue light engulfed her body outside of my closed lids.

"What the hell?! How did she do that?!" Emmett said from behind me.

"I can't even get my powers to work like that, yet she has managed them in a matter of seconds. This is impossible." Kate gasped.

"That's my Bella." From the sound of Edward's voice, I could tell he was smiling. When I opened my eyes again, the red had drained from them and everything was the normal color. Screaming in front of me was Tanya, with her hair ablaze tih a strange blue flame. It was hilarious, but I felt too weak to laugh.

Again, Ifelt power flow through my body and I let go and it did what it had to do. I touched Tanya's hair and the fire was put out. She curled up on the ground and her arm finally reattached itself. I let go of the shield I had on Kate's mind and grabbed my head. Damn, I was woozy. Can vampires pass out? Well, let's find out. I took a step on wobbly legs, then another, still holding my head. I saw the ground comingn closer and closer to me, then felt arms wrapped around my body. I felt the wind in my face and knew I was begin carried somewhere.

****

When I came to, I was surrounded by my family and friends.

"Are you okay?" Emmett asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine Em." I said and sat up. I looked around and saw Tanya laying on the floor, half of her hair gone. I smirked knowing that I was the one who caused that.

"You did some major damage, love." Edward said and smiled.

"Good. She deserved it." Kate said. "She irritates me with all her babble about you, knowing you're totally in love with Bella." Kate shook her head again.

"Well, I'm glad I did it. Now, it's time to go. If we stay here any longer I might be tempted to fight her again." I said as my vision flickered from red to mormal, and back.

"I think that's a good idea." Edward agreed when he saw my eyes. He picked me up bridal style and carried me out of the house. "It was nice seeing you again Kate, Garrett."

"What about me Edward?! Didn't you like seeing me too?" Tanya's voice came from the heap on the ground. She stood up and came to us.

I growled and jumped out of Edward's arms into a crouch. I lunged at her and she flew to the couch, knocking it back a few feet.

Kate sighed. "I fear she's never going to learn. Oh well. Bella, please feel free to hurt her, just don't kill her."

"Of course. If I killed her, then I wouldn't be able to beat her anymore." I smiled at Kate and we left.

"Well, that was.....entertaining." Emmett said when we were in the MoW.

"It sure was." Rose agreed. I placed my shield on Edward's mind so I could see what Rose was thinking. At first all of the voices were too loud and I winced, but I got over it. Appearently, while I was out, Rose and Alice exacted their revenge on Tanya as well.

I laughed. "Congrats you two. I didn't know you had it in you." I joked as all of the eyes turned to me. "What?"

"You didn't know we had it in us?! Bella, you were amazing out there!" Rose said.

"Yeah Bellsie. I thought you were going to turn on us next!" Emmett laughed.

"I mean, I have never seen that amount of power from one vampire! It was awesome!" Alice said.

"I have to agree Bella. That was something worth seeing, and remembering." Jasper nodded.

"Bella, you were all like boom! Bam! And Tanya was like, No! Don't hurt me!" David used his arms for emphasis. He cleared his throat when everyone looked at him. "I mean....you were pretty amazing."

"I told you that you were special love." Edward kissed my head.

"Sure sure. Let's just go home." I sighed and leaned into Edward.


Bella had some hostility stored up!! *Sigh* I love a good brawl. Please review!!
