Chapter 25. A queen claims her crown.
Bella's POV ~
We were in the fight of our life, all of us. What petty differences we had between each other meant nothing now, because now the only thing that was important was staying alive. Somehow I had more confidence, more anger, hate, and disgust, for these vile creatures of hell I found myself fighting. I kept a watchful eye on the future, after all my lover had just told me to "Be safe".. And I wasn't in the business of going against my love. I would be safe, and I would conquer these imbeciles, and take my rightful throne as queen of the dark ones. It felt like this was meant to be so I kept my calm, but in the same I unleashed my wrath.
I was lost in a frenzy of destroying horrible demons, and while being an immortal, they were still somehow capable of draining my energy.. I charged through none the less, although there bites were worse than vampire bites, they burned worse than venom during my last few heartbeats. Their images were haunting, they could manipulate themselves, but I had a shield to keep my friends and I safe. Suddenly, I heard a chilling voice... A voice of someone I knew, but tried to ignore... It kept calling me. "Bella.." I knew that tone from nightmares not even I had remembered as a young child right after my parents divorce... I knew that voice, that the demon was using... It all clicked... "Lucifer... " I whispered in a very low tone... I knew it was time to meet the devil himself, and I was ready.
"Yessss My Child..." I the sinister beast replied in a chilling tone.
"I am not your child, and you have no right to even assume I am.." I threw back at him... I remembered what the three arc angels had warned about him being a very powerful enemy, and I knew this was going to be a hard battle... But even the devil would have to show me some respect, I thought in my head, at the situation.
"Bella, you are my child.... I knew your mother, quite well, and your grandmother too... " Lucifer responded quickly with a smug tone.
"Listen, I am not in the business of dealing with your arrogance... Your an asshole who had choices in life, and you made the wrong ones... Sure, we can go back and forth all day how much of a jiggilo you are, how you can give me all the power, when we know that is nothing but a lie, just like most if not everything you do is revolved around a lie... But really let's face it Lucy... I don't and won't be doing dealings with the devil... Now we pretty much now that the voltouri is finished with their allegeince to you, and you will have now allies with me or my mate in charge!" I spat at him full of disgust, and loathing.
"Bella, is that is how you want to play ... Fine... " The man said with a wicked tone. "Remember your nightmares you kept locked up deep inside, until you forgot, well now we will relive them!" He cackled.
Like a swoosh from a dream, I found myself in my mothers little two bedroom apartment we got right after leaving Charlie... I had forgotten the beatings I got from two of her ex boyfriends... I didn't blame her, I never told her... But it was painful to relive such terrible moments you keep hidden of your most innocent childhood. Seeing yourself get beaten by the hands of an ignorant bastard as a child, and then seeing it from the devils perspective, and seeing how the devil feeds on that made me feel sick. I saw how Lucifer would unleash demons at me throughout my childhood... Blind to a mere human eye, but so clear now... It made me sick as well... But I would not give up, nor would I give him the pleasure of knowing my distaste for what he was putting me through , by having to remember.
"Had enough yet Bella ?" He asked with a laugh.
"Not hardily... Was that suppose to scare me ? Hm I was a fragile human then, and I lived... Can you do any better ?" I said with utter sarcasm back to Lucifer.
Suddenly the force of his backhand slap to my cheek knocked me about four feet... He struck me ? Was my first thought... And then I smiled at the bastard... "Let's Play!" I screamed at him.
Lucifer charged me with so much force that I crumpled to the floor beneath me... I just kept thinking about all the warnings the three good warrior angels had given me, knowing they were fighting along side me in this gave me comfort. I knew Lucifer would try and deceive me, and boy did he ever! He kept changing images, from my mothers image , to other family members and friends, and when it hit home the hardest was when he learned to do it when I had to fight back... For every-time I had to defend myself he materialized into another image of a loved one... He was a disgusting liar and deceiver, but I would not let that bother me.. I would just defend myself and loved ones. Exhausted I kept fighting the beast, and I was still holding my own, but the bite marks had me burning now, and I was getting sick of him... Forcefully he caught me offside, I felt somewhat paralyzed by the force of his blow to my chest.. I thought for a brief second this might be the end, but I wouldn't give up.. I cannot describe what happened next, but I unleashed everything I had... And I called on the phantoms, the angels, the creatures of the dark, and even God to destroy this man fighting me, and send him back to eternal damnation. And like lightning the energy consumed me, and sent me like a wrecking ball into him!
Wind, thunder, lightning, fire, rain, eruppted outside of our castle, and that is when Jasper , my lover and mate, also knocked into Lucifer with such force it sent him through our walls... Straight towards another battle that more supernatural creatures were involed with, outside of the castle.
"Bella, Bella love, sit tight, I will finish this, my lover." Jasper said sternly to me as I was going to finish off Lucifer.
"Jasper, no.." I meekly whispered... I was scared for my lover.
I saw my lover fighting with the devil and will the earth to open in a giant fissure on the ground... I saw the arc angel Micheal and my mate Jasper throw Lucifer back to his eternal prison... And for the first time since my immortal life began I somehow so exhausted, started to fall asleep.
"Carlisile! Come quickly, Bella, Bella is sleeping!" Emmett yelled out as he scooped me into his strong big arms.
I flickered my eyes around, and suddenly I felt Jasper's arms around me instead, as everyone was whispering, he carried me to our bedroom chamber.
"It is okay, sometimes demon bites have this effect on our kind... They are the only thing that can make us truly want to sleep... Although we aren't really sleeping, just healing." Jasper said with the up most confidence, as he still held onto me, knowing I needed him.
"It is true... " Micheal chimed in, in order to put any doubts aside.
"Now for the prophecy!" Gabe began with a new found tone of happiness.
"You creatures of the dark that have fought for just cause and purpose, and more over freedom from the shackles that left you at the hands of such revolting cowards that have been disposed of, will now learn the prophecy of Brother Sun, And Sister Moon." Rafael boomed loud enough for everyone on the castle grounds to hear.
"You will all relinquish your earthly bound guilt brought on by your former leaders dealings with the devil... You will all live for eternity, or till the end of time... You will serve the true purpose in your destiny, and only be encouraged to hunt through instint, and that instinct will work as almost an antenna as an angel of death. You will change some, you will cross others over, you will still live in secret as to what you really are Vampires... But you will thirst no more like rabid animals... Instead it will only pop up when needed. You will have your humanity back ! While being immortal, and you will now recognize you are the true Angels of Dark, to cross over those who need it, and change those who long to stay in earth from. No fear of hurting innocent, no shame in what you are! " Micheal boomed proudly, and that is when something very strange happened.
I lunged up and grabed my chest and looked at Jasper in shock whil still sitting on our bed in our bedchamber.... "My heart!" I exclaimed nervously.
"As for your leaders, Brother Sun and Sister Moon, they will govern you for eternity, with fairness, honesty, justice, and love.... Secret must be kept, and law must be kept, any dealings with demons will be punished through them... But their love is sostrong, and so destined to be, they shall have only a few differences that set them apart from the rest of you. Their love was matched in heaven before they were born, they have now beating hearts, and their eyes will reflect the color of the sun kissed sky, and the moon kissed midnight... They have powers unmatched to anything on earth... And while they are still Vampires, they will guide you with the beating of their stone hearts." Gabe finished proudly, as a huge applause erupted from the grounds around us.
"Bella, my heart beats again, and it is because of our love!" Jasper whispered into my ear, as Gabe was finishing up the story of us to all the loyal creatures who fought.
It was around that time that Carlisle, escorted the rest of my large family out of our bedroom, to give us some time to re-coupe.
"Jasper, are you sure it is normal to sleep ?" I asked curiously while feeling once safe again in my lovers arms.
"Oh yes, in fact I fought a few demons while still a newborn, Maria kind of specialized in supernatural warfare... They are the only things than can make you sleep love... We will be fine by daybreak tomorrow." He whispered into my ear soothingly.
And for the first time, as equals in the immortal life, we slept, and were able to dream together, not just me as a human, but both of us as new found leaders of our kind. And so we slept, and healed in each others arms... Tomorrow would be a big day, we would rightfully take our thrones and crowns.
