Thank you all for such a great response for last chapter! A couple of you were worried that Tessa was already dead, and sorry for that! Tessa is now very alive and well with vengeance for a certain boy called Edward Cullen in her blood. I was amazed that other people also thought it was sad, I was like WOW! People actually care!
Those that have read my other story; thank you all sooo much! I wasn't sure if people were actually going to like it or not, and I'm glad you do.

Chapter 14
Bella's POV
As Tessa went to sleep I stayed awake, I had a little bit to think about it. It was about 6:30 AM, so I only had 1 and ½ hours till I see Edward. Now there's a major thing to think about. I feel so stupid. I had only known the boy for less than 24 hours and I had told him I cared for him. This is why I normally didn't get close to anyone; men are only created to break your hearts.
Estelle didn't tell me that he was lying when he said he didn't care, but then again I wasn't really paying attention to anyone but him. What ticked me off the most was the fact I believed him when he said he cared. How could he? No-one could love a monster like me… I'm nothing.
(Bella / Tessa)
'No your not.'
'Tessa?'
'No shit Sherlock.'
'Shouldn't you be sleeping?'
'You think too loud… and your thoughts bother me sometimes.'
'How?'
'If you think you are a monster, what does that make me?'
'Huh?'
'I think you have a flat tire on the information highway… a permanent one. He cared about you more than you know… all for you. If it was me he met… he would never have spoken to me. Who would? Someone says a joke about me and I'd rip their head off.'
'Because of you Tessa, I am who I am. He would never have cared about me either way if I had never had you.'
'Is this a bonding session?'
'I don't think so… why?'
'Just feels like it, I think I better stop pretending to be awake. Maddy's on the bed next to us, I think she has something to say.'
'When doesn't she? He-he… just get her to link our minds…'
'I can do whatever I want!'
'Ok, ok. Calm down, fine do whatever you want.'
'he-he-he…'
'Not like that!'
'Sure sure…'
Maddy's POV
After we got over what we did to Bella we discussed a few things between ourselves… mostly what the hell we were going to do. "Should we tell her we erased all his memories involving her?" Eliza asked.
Estelle shook her head, "I don't know… she might figure out it was us that did it."
"And she never speak it to us again," Kaiza finished.
"I think we should. She has a right to know." I nodded in agreement with Jordenne.
"I can tell her," I volunteered. I started towards the stairs but I was stopped by Estelle running up to me.
"Do you think it was her that made Julian and Edward faint earlier on?" I shrugged.
"I think so; she could have been focusing so hard on stunning Julian she didn't realize that included Edward. You know, with the things she said."
"Yeah… that's what I thought… umm…" I sighed.
"Estelle you know you can ask me anything."
"When should we tell her the new talents she has?"
I could see that she was just covering up whatever question she wanted to actually ask, but I didn't pry. "I'll tell her before I tell her about Edward."
'Ok," she said before walking away from me.
I rolled my eyes before walking up to Bella's room. I could see that Bella was sleeping so I sat down at the end of the bed, as I did I looked around the room. I was interrupted from my observing by Bella sitting up and pulling her knees to her chin and wrapping her arms around her. It took a little bit before I realized I was actually looking at Tessa, not Bella. Her glossy black hair shined in the moonlight and her red eyes a stark contrast against her pale skin. It was slightly unnerving. "Tessa? What happened?" she looked at me like I was mad.
"She's hurting, so I'm controlling our body now." It was weird how Tessa always referred to the body as ours, not hers. I nodded slowly in response to her statement.
"Is it bad?" I whispered.
She looked out the window, but didn't actually look at anything. "You have no idea," she said. A single tear ran down her face, I wiped it away before hugging her. "I know, I know… it's stupid to care about him for not knowing him for very long…" she said, the tears started to fall quicker.
"No Tessa! If you find someone that is for you, no-one should ever stand in your way... no-one." 'Unless you have weirdo friends that would take them away from you,' I thought. She just nodded mutely. I shook her shoulder slightly, "Did you want to hear about why Shannon was here?"
"I forgot about that, I think I fainted."
"Yeah, you did. But I have awesome news!"
"What…" she asked suspiciously. I rolled my eyes at her.
"You have a heap of new gifts!" I could she her eyes brightened at this, even though she tried to hide it. I smirked at her as she fought her smile, she eventually gave up.
"What are they!?" she asked while bouncing away from me. I laughed at her enthusiasm.
"Ok, ok! Calm down tiger!" I chuckled, "You can put any being to sleep, heal any and all wounds, travel in time, speak to animals, freeze and turn things to fire with your mind and…" I wasn't so sure if she wanted to know about this one.
"And?"
"This one is quite serious." She still nodded her head impatiently.
"You can cancel out all electrical fields." It took a little bit for her to get it, but when she did… oh boy.
"Woooohooooo! I am the most awesomenest person in the world!" she yelled as she ran out of the room, down the stairs and into the living room. "Come one come all, to watch…" she paused for a moment and made sure everyone was there, "Tessa's booty dance!" she yelled. She then proceeded to jump onto the coffee table and shake her bum around. Every now and again she'd do an old Disco move and every time she pointed upwards the lights would flicker; when her hand pointed downwards the TV went spaz.
"Did you tell her?" Jordenne asked.
"Yes… but for some reason I don't think she understood."
"Well do something," I turned to look at Jordenne in surprise. She just pointed at Tessa and said, "NOW."
I contacted Tessa's mind and relayed what was said to me by Eliza, a very short time ago. 'Hey Tessa, I understand why you are happy but let me show you what I was told…' I showed her the conversation about her powers that we had had with Shannon, she started to grow quiet. After I was done she was looking at me with wide eyes.
"So… so I-I can DO… w-what?" I nodded once she understood. I thought she would be all sad; instead she just started yelling all over again. "That is AWESOME!!" she jumped off the table, ran out the front door and down the street.
Charlie looked at me funny, "What?" I asked defensively.
"Have you actually been with Tessa for a long period of time?"
"Well no… but she can't be that bad can she? She must be sort of like Bella."
He shook his head and turned towards the stairs. At the base he turned back to us, "She is nothing like Bella… you have no idea the amount of work she is. All I can really say is, Good Luck." He chuckled darkly and walked up the stairs.
"What does that mean?" I asked my friends, they all shrugged.
"Maybe whatever we tell her she will find something good about it…" Kaiza suggested.
"So if we tell her about what we did to Edward… she won't mind?" Eliza asked.
"Seeing how she reacted with a highly destructive gift… I would think so." We all looked at the front door when we heard screaming, we ran outside to see Tessa doing a nuddy run. And if that wasn't enough, she was ringing every doorbell she passed. We all groaned at the same time.
Edward's POV
I was trying to remember anything that had happened earlier, but I couldn't. I was so used to be in control of my thoughts that this felt uncanny. After reading the note I had a little time to think about that little video with the girl, who was she? I could here my family still laughing downstairs; I could sense something was about to happen so I dragged myself down as quickly as possible. When I reached the bottom of the stairs, I heard Esme yelling… how strange, Esme never yelled.
"What the hell did you do Emmett!?"
"I didn't do anything! Why does everyone always assume it's me?" everything was silent as I walked the few steps to the living room, "alright bad example." he sighed. I turned into the room to find Emmett pinned against a wall… the only wall standing. How did I not notice this? Oh that's right, my family were picking on me… yet again. As I took in my surroundings I couldn't help but gasp, the room was completely destroyed.
Plant roots were through the floor, a huge hole with water in it… a lot of blackened rings of circle that looked like it came from fire. The walls had been demolished, except for one, and the roof above us had been taken away. Alice looked at the whole as I did. "OH NO!!!!" she screamed before running as quickly as possible. I heard Rose snicker.
"What is it?" I asked.
"That's her room." Was all she said but I couldn't help but start to laugh.
A shriek came from above and I looked up to see little Alice peering down on us, "THIS IS SOOOO NOT FUNNY!" she yelled, "ALL MY CLOTHES ARE GONE! ALL OF THEM! ARGHHH!" I didn't have to even try to read her mind to know what she was thinking.
"Emmett, would you care to explain?" Esme was interrupted by our doorbell ringing. Carlisle walked over first and the rest of us followed behind him, trying to seem like a normal family. He opened the door to the same gorgeous girl in the video, I felt my jaw drop.
"Edward close your mouth will you? You might catch flies," She said in a beautiful melodic voice. Emmett laughed loudly.
"I like her," he said with a grin. An OW! followed soon after as Rosalie hit him over the head.
"I know! Who wouldn't?" she said while spinning, she stopped abruptly and glared at me. "Oh that's right… Edward," she muttered darkly. What the hell?
"Are you a vampire?" Alice asked.
"No…" she said slowly.
"Then why are your eyes red?" I looked closer, of course Alice was right.
"Uh… the lights?"
"There are no lights, ours are broken." Alice said matter of factly.
"Damn you Pixie!" The girl said, "They are called… contacts! Yes, yes I have contacts!"
"Hmmm…"
"Why did you think I was a vampire?" her face dawned on realization, "are you guys vampires?" she whispered.
Oh crap… thankfully Jasper quickly stepped in, "No we thought you were because you matched the description of a vampire in those brand new best seller books."
"Oh… Emmett I bet I'm more awesomer than you!" what is wrong with this girl? Emmett puffed his chest out.
"I bet you 50 bucks!" he said in retaliation.
She grinned evilly, scary. "The rules are I have to something that you would never ever do, and vice versa."
"Only if I go first!"
"hehehe, you just wait…!" she chuckled softly, he nodded.
"I dare you to streak, nude, and run through town and ring every doorbell you pass!"
"Is that all you got? I could do that in my sleep… hmm… I got one!" she sang. Alice started to laugh uncontrollably.
"Carlisle, Esme? You might want to leave or do something else… NOT HERE!" they both looked at Alice strangely before walking away.
"I dare you to make out with Mike as soon as you see him in the cafeteria at school, today."
Emmett face paled and he stared at the girl as we all laughed at Emmett, I could hear Carlisle and Esme doing the same. "S-sure," he stuttered.
She grinned at him, "Please excuse me, I have a nuddy run to perform." She stripped bare and ran off, leaving a pile of clothes on the doorstep.
"Wait!" I yelled, "What's your name and how do you know ours?" she stopped and looked at us thoughtfully, I averted my gaze to give her some modesty.
"I HAVE AWESOME FRIENDS!" she screamed and ran off. I realized something when I couldn't see her anymore, I couldn't read her mind.
Tessa's POV
After learning one of my better powers I ran out of the room screaming, "Woooohooooo! I am the most awesomenest person in the world!" I felt a little disappointed that no-one came out with me; didn't they know me at all?
'No.'
'What?'
'They know me, not you.'
'Oh… what a shock they are going to get!' I found it weird that whenever I felt happy Bella didn't shrink, but when she felt happy… I did. I stopped running when I realized I had brought myself to the Cullen's place, the perfect opportunity to practice my new power. I slipped into the garage, and gasped. They had so many gorgeous cars. I walked over to the shiny silver Volvo and lifted its hood, to reveal its engine. I concentrated on the electrical field I could feel; the sense became stronger every second. I then imagined the field disappearing… and it did. I opened my eyes to still see the Volvo, but no engine. Before I could celebrate I heard screaming from inside, maybe I should say a little hello.
'Don't do anything I wouldn't do.' Bella warned.
'Pfft, yeah right.'
I walked up the stairs and ran the doorbell. The yelling stopped and footsteps came to the door, Carlisle was the first I saw. Then Edward, with his mouth open… acting like he's never seen me before, what a jerk.
"Edward close your mouth will you? You might catch flies," I said as calmly as possible so I wouldn't punch him in the face. Emmett laughed loudly, trust Emmett.
"I like her," he said with a grin. What!? He knew me! Well… he did…
"I know! Who wouldn't?" I said while spinning, playing along with him, I stopped spinning when I realized someone didn't. "Oh that's right… Edward," I muttered darkly. He even had the nerve to look surprised.
"Are you a vampire?" Alice asked.
"No…" I thought she already knew… actually, why are they all acting strange?
"Then why are your eyes red?" Oh Crap! My eyes! quick Tessa, think quick!
"Uh… the lights?" oh wonderful, that is just pathetic.
"There are no lights, ours are broken." Alice said matter of factly.
"Damn you Pixie!" I said, "They are called… contacts! Yes, yes I have contacts!" please believe me, PLEASE!
"Hmmm…"
"Why did you think I was a vampire?" I tried out my acting skills, "are you guys vampires?" I whispered, trying to act shocked. How do actors do this? Its hard!
Jasper spoke up to save his mate, how sweet, "No we thought you were because you matched the description of a vampire in those brand new best seller books." Ohhh, those book are awesome… now I just need to change the subject from vampires… ummm…
"Oh… Emmett I bet I'm more awesomer than you!" hehehe, got the there, Emmett puffed his chest out. Only thing is he doesn't know what's going down.
"I bet you 50 bucks!" he said in retaliation.
I grinned, and little Eddie looked scared. HA! "The rules are I have to something that you would never ever do, and vice versa."
"Only if I go first!" of course he wanted to… has Edward been staring at me this whole time? Creepy… he must be a stalker…
"hehehe, you just wait…!" I laughed, he nodded.
"I dare you to streak, nude, and run through town and ring every doorbell you pass!"
"Is that all you got? I could do that in my sleep… hmm… I got one!" I sang. Alice started to laugh uncontrollably, damn Pixie had a vision thing.
"Carlisle, Esme? You might want to leave or do something else… NOT HERE!" they both looked at Alice strangely before walking away.
"I dare you to make out with Mike as soon as you see him in the cafeteria at school, today."
Emmett face paled and he stared at me everyone laughed at Emmett, everyone but me… I was TRYING to keep a straight face. "S-sure," he stuttered.
I grinned at him, "Please excuse me, I have a nuddy run to perform." I stripped bare and ran off, the quicker I did this the quicker I could get Maddy to alter everyones memories..
"Wait!" Edward yelled. I didn't even dignify that with a response, "What's your name and how do you know ours?" I stopped and looked at them. They really didn't now who I was but that would mean…
"I HAVE AWESOME FRIENDS!" I screamed and ran off. New thought, the sooner I got this done the sooner I could thank my best friends EVER! Oh… and see Emmett kiss Mike!
Hope you guys liked it! Thanks for reading my story for this long, it is a bit weirdo… hehe… if you have any questions just ask!
OH! Shan there is more! Love you! U 2 JAPE! xxoo
