Grazie mille! I decided to create an extra long chapter for everyone. But, let me first give some shout outs:

Tethla Magus, I would be honored to help with your Alec/Bella story. Thank you for the ideas. I will try and use them.

waylandgirl143, thank you for the ideas. I now have a great idea for a future chapter.

city bookworm, thank you as well. Your idea will add a very interesting twist to the story.

Darkmoon101, sure I'd love to help out with Ruined and United and your other story is gonna be beta read by Zarathustra101.

Anyway, I was wondering if I should write a new story. Of course I would finish this but I am just curious. I'm thinking of a Bella/Jasper story or another Bella/Alec story. It would be much more different than this of course.


Bella P.O.V

For once, I was actually looking forward to sleep. I had Alec at my side. Therefore, I had nothing to fear. I knew Edward would appear in my dream. Him appearing almost seemed like a part of life. I knew that I would get stronger through experiencing the illusions but sometimes it can be painful. When I collapsed earlier, I was…happy. I wasn't the defenseless human anymore. I was strong. I was unique. I was me. Vaguely, I heard someone talking. The voices sounded like Alec and Caius. I didn't quite catch what they were saying though.

I focused on my dream. It was shifting. I saw Edward once again. "Bella, come back to me." He pleaded. His face was scrunched up in pain. A month ago, I would've fallen for it and did whatever he said.

"No. I'm done with you ruining my life. I am my own person." I smirked at him. I was satisfied with his reaction of pure shock.

"Excuse me?" Edward raised an eyebrow. He walked towards me. "But, Bella, I love you."

"I loved you too. But, I can't be with you. First of all, you're dead; second of all, you took what I wasn't yet willing to give. Besides, I don't want the only way we are ever able to meet up be in my dreams." I explained to him. "I'm done. Please, move on. I don't want to see you anymore. This will be the last time."

"Bella, are you leaving me?" Edward asked.

"I'm sorry, but I already left." I whispered. "Goodbye Edward Anthony Mason Cullen. This is it."

"No, Bella! No! Don't go! I'm sorry!" Edward tried to grab me. I knocked him away with my shield. He went flying. "Y-your eyes flashed blue!"

"I'm aware." I turned on my heel and walked out of the dreamy mist. I opened my eyes and sat up. Alec was staring at me.

"Hey, are you okay?" Alec asked. He looked at me strangely.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Why?" I looked at him. He shrugged.

"You opened your eyes mid dream and they flashed blue. I thought you were up, but you closed them again and started talking again. You sounded like that dream encounter was pretty intense. Mind explaining?"

"Well, I think I'm free of Edward." I smiled. "I gave him a good speech and a thrashing."

"I'm proud of you then." Alec gave me a quick hug. "Wanna go meet the others?"

"Sure, but I need a human moment first." I sighed. Alec nodded. I grabbed am outfit from my closet. It happened to be a red t-shirt and black skinny jeans with red gems outlining the pockets. I walked into the bathroom and took a quick shower. I changed into the outfit and brushed my hair. I let some of my hair frame my face. I walked out of the bathroom and Alec was already there. I threw on some black converse and we were off.

"Your fashion sense really has changed." Alec noted. I grinned.

"Heidi threatened to burn all my sweatpants and replace them with skirts if I didn't change my sense of style. I'm actually making an attempt to match my clothes. Alice will be so proud." I giggled. Alec chuckled.

"Here we are." Alec opened the door to the throne room. Demetri, Jane, Heidi, Felix, Jasper, Rosalie, Alice, and Emmett were hanging out in there. Alice had a pouty expression.

"Bella, can I please talk to you?" Alice asked. Alec growled and pulled me close protectively.

"Alec, it's fine." I waved him off. I followed Alice outside the throne room.

"Bella, look, I'm sorry about Edward. I wasn't even sure the vision was real until it happened. Please forgive me. Please don't shut me out of your life." Alice looked at me.

"I love you Alice. I will always love you like a sister. But, let's just start over okay?"

"Really, you'll give me another chance? Thank you, thank you, and thank you!" Alice jumped up and hugged me.

"Calm down. Let's take it slow okay?" I winked at Alice. She beamed.

"Fine, by the way, kudos on the outfit. Super chic!" Alice skipped out of the hallway and back into the throne room. Jasper looked at her strangely.

"Bella," Aro started. I turned my head to face him. "Alec has told me about what happened last night."

"Oh, about my eyes?" I asked. I turned to Alec. I raised an eyebrow at him.

"It seems there is more to you than meets the eye." Aro said.

"I suppose so." I smirked. "Do you want a demonstration?" I already knew Aro's answer.

"Me!" Emmett jumped up. I sighed and focused on him. My eyes flashed and I flung my shield at him and knocked him into the air. I played around with my physical shield and dropped him on the ground. Caius, Aro, and Marcus applauded.

"Magnificent Bella!" Aro clapped. "It's hard to believe you're still human."

"She's one of a kind." Marcus sighed.

"I'm glad to have her." Caius said. He looked at me.

"I think we all are." Jane smirked and walked over to me. "Bella's like a celebrity here."

"Oh I don't know about that." I blushed. Jane laughed.

"C'mon, let's celebrate by feeding the human." Alec grinned. I blushed again. But why do I keep getting this bad feeling? Something's gonna happen. I just know it.


Well, this was another filler chapter. The good stuff is coming up next chapter. I hope everyone is looking forward to it.

Arrivederci,
