Recap:

I was never going to win…

"Me," I answered "it's me you want, then come an get it,"

… Without a fight.

----

"What?" Alec asked, obviously stunned "you've finally given up? Or did you finally realize that it's ME you love?" he asked

"None," I answered, "but, honestly, I don't get the point of torturing my family, if it's me you want, then come and get me."

"You're asking me to fight you?" Alec asked.

I simply nodded,

"You're crazy, you know that?" he asked.

Emmett hissed, but when Alec shot him a glare, Rosalie held him back. All the Cullens were still looking at Edward, who was still on the ground, unconscious.

"I'm not crazy," I answered, without a doubt, "I'm just tired of you running away from me,"

Beating Alec was simple, all you had to do was get him so mad that he couldn't think strait, and just went strait in for a kill; exactly like a newborn.

Of course, it helped when he couldn't knock you unconscious with a single thought.

Ya, you heard me right, I knew that Alec's power had nothing on me, unfortunately for Alec, he didn't know that.

I was a shield, he knew that, but it had never crossed his mind that my power could block him out too.

It had never crossed my mind either, that is until Jane tried to use her power against me.

And so, I wasn't scared of Alec, I could beat him easily, he didn't know how to fight, he had never needed to, because he had always been able to cheat.

Well that stopped today.

"What do you mean; I'm not running away from you, I've been running after you." He asked,

"Ya, ya," I said teasingly with a smile, "We believe you,"

Alec shot me a glare, "What do you mean?" he asked again.

"We all know you're scarred to fight me," I answered, my voice filled with the confidence I felt.

Everyone shot me a look, including Rosalie, the Cullens were warning me to shut up, while Alec didn't look like he believed that my words had actually left my mouth.

Still, I didn't let my game show,

"Come on Alec, Fight me," I whispered seductively, "don't be afraid, I won't hurt you,"

Alec smiled, and I knew that he was using his power against me, so, I fell to the ground.

I heard the gasps around me, at this point I could only use my ears or Alec would discover my secret,

"See," I heard Alec say "that's what happens, when you ask for a fight," I could hear him turn around and then bend down,

"Now Eddie," he whispered, I could hear, however that Edward was still under the influence of Alec's power, "Would you like to see you girlfriend," Alec asked.

I knew that Edward would be traumatized, that he honestly could not see me this way, he would blame himself, he always had and he always would, because that was what Edward did.

I forced myself to wait in this position, but as I forced myself even more to be silent, I heard other things.

I could practically hear the smug smile on Alec's face. It was a smile that I despised, it disgusted me, I hated it, and I dreamed of the day were I would finally be free of that smile.

I dreamed of the day where I could talk to Edward, be with him, and not have to fear Alec.

I dreamed of the day, where I knew that Alice would never sob for me like she was doing now.

I dreamed of the day where I could really be one of Esme's daughters, where I could call Edward's father as my own.

I dreamed of the day where Rosalie did not havehate me because I consisted a threat to her family.

I dreamed of a day, where I could finally be within a 5 mile radius of Jasper and not fear for my life.

I dreamed of hearing Emmett's stupid joked again.

I dreamed of starting my life as Maddie's protector.

But most of all, I dreamed of the day, that would end Alec's life, I dreamed for it, I wanted it, I needed it.

And so, I would have it,

Today.
