The Moment Of Truth

Rosalie's POV

My little girl. She can't be gone, she can't, that bastard will pay. He deserves more than pain.

I was in total shock. I couldn't move.

"Bella, please be alive," I whispered.

Just then a wolf attacked the guy. The wolf was brown with white, Bella!

Bella's POV

I opened my eyes and noticed my clothes were ripped. I phased and started walking back. I saw Jonathan so I crouched down. I also noticed everyone wanted to or was crying. I could worry about that later. I pounced on Jonathan.

He freaked when he saw me.

I growled at him, but he just laughed.

"You're still alive, but not for long," he told me.

He pushed me off. I slammed to the ground.

I got up and ran to him. He did too. I hit him with my head and he flew back. I was panting. He ran to me and hit my ribs, causing me to yelp.

I tried to get up but I was so weak.

He walked up to me.

"The offer is still on the table," he whispered.

I growled and he kicked me. I yelped harder.

I got up and thought about the fire. I could feel my body burn and I let it out. This time, he was dead. I started limping back, but collapsed.

Rosalie's POV

Bella did it. She killed him. But she was too weak. I took the cloak from Jane and ran to Bella.

She started to phase back. I covered her and picked her up.

"Hi, mommy," she whispered.

"Hey Pumpkin. I'm so proud of you," I told her.

"Mom?" She whispered.

"Yeah," I answered.

"I love you," she said.

"I love you too," I told her.

She fell asleep.

I took her inside and put her in a bra and underwear so Carlisle could check on her.

We were all in the throne room when we heard Bella scream.

"AHHH! IT HURTS SO MUCH! AHHH! PLEASE! STOP! AHHH!"

I wanted to cry. I buried my head on Emmett's chest. Bella's cries echoed through the castle.

When it got quiet Carlisle entered the room.

"She's asleep," he told us, "she's on bed rest until further notice."

We all nodded.

Emmett and I went to see her.

She looked so weak. She had cuts and bruises on her face, arms, and legs. Her ribs were bandaged.

"Mommy," Bella whispered. She smiled at me.

I ran to her.

"How are you?" I asked.

"It hurts," she gasped.

Emmett left to get Carlisle. He came in and started asking Bella questions.

After a while, she fell asleep.

Alec's POV

We were all on the throne room telling them what happened.

The wolves and two vampires left. Seth couldn't stay away from my sister, so he moved in here. Leah couldn't leave her brother and Paul loves Leah. Alexis didn't want to go. The rest of us were here because of Bella.

We talked until my mind started to fog up. It turned black.

Bella's POV

I heard footsteps near my door. I stared at the door and it opened.

Jonathan stood there, smiling.

"How? I killed you," I told him.

"I ran off," he said.

I tried to get up, but my ribs hurt me.

I growled at him.

He ran to me and cut my air supply, I started gasping for air. I couldn't breathe. It hurt so much.

Black spots started to appear when he let go. I started coughing.

He picked me up and threw me to the door. I couldn't get up. He threw me across the hall. I hit the wall and whimpered in pain.

He kept throwing me until we made it to the throne room.

Everyone was there. They weren't moving. He picked me up and threw me into the wall. I was sliding down to the ground.

He made me stand against the wall and put his hand on my throat. He snapped his fingers and everyone went back to normal.

"What are you doing?" Alec growled.

"You can't hurt me," Jonathan said.

Alec took a step towards Jonathan, and he picked me off the ground, and tightened his hold. I couldn't breathe again.

Alec took a step back. Jonathan loosened up and put me on the ground.

"Listen, if you want the girl to live, let me rule the world," Jonathan said.

"No, don't do it!" I shouted, "He's going to kill me anyways!"

"She's telling the truth," Edward told everyone.

Jonathan growled and threw me to the ground. I couldn't get up. I saw him take control of the guard. It was the guard against the Cullens, wolves, Alexis, Jane, Alec, Aro, Caius, Marcus, and Fuzzy.

Fuzzy stayed near me. He fought hard. I tried to get up. Fuzzy came to help me. I stood up. No one wanted to kill the guard. So I, not caring about my pain, lunged at Jonathan. He fell back.

"You brat!" He shouted. He got up and grabbed a fist full of hair. He threw me over his head. I landed on my back. It hurt. He got my hair and started dragging me. I groaned in pain. He threw me to the wall. I tried to stand but couldn't.

"Awe, is the little girl weak? She can't stand?" He mocked.

I groaned. My head was beating, hard.

I tried again but was unable to stand. He turned and I jumped him from behind. I extended my mental shield.

Everyone stopped fighting. Jonathan got angry. He attacked me.

I fell on my back and I cried out. He kicked my ribs and I heard something crack. I screamed.

I felt the heat return. Jonathan took a match out of his pocket and lit it. He dropped it straight at me.

Edward's POV

Jonathan dropped the match and there was a lot of fire on the ground. Everyone thought and shouted the same thing. "BELLA!"

Bella was standing up in the fire. She wore a red dress and had wings. They were made of fire. Her eyes seemed to have flames in them.

She snapped her fingers and fire appeared at the tip of her index finger. Everyone froze.

"Surprised?" She asked Jonathan.

No one said anything.

"See I'm the fire's master. It can't kill me. I control it. I tell it what to do. If I tell it to attack it will," she said, evilly. The fire got bigger and went to Jonathan. He screamed.

"Stop," Bella ordered, and the fire returned.

The fire surrounded her.

"The fire, it's controlling her," Aro told us all.

The fire went from small to huge. It transformed into a dragon. It glared at Jonathan. He was scared. We all were.

"Kill him," Bella ordered, "but let him suffer." A small smile started to show in her lips. The flames in her eyes started to dance as Jonathan screamed.

"Bella!" We all shouted. The dragon turned to us. Everyone, but me, Alec, and Jacob took a step back.

"Bella don't let it control you," Jacob said.

"This isn't you," Alec added.

"Bella, please for us," I finished.

She turned to us and her eyes started to go back to normal. The dragon started to fade.

"I'm so sorry," she apologized, "I don't know what happened. I couldn't stop it."

"Your safe, he's stopped, it's over," Jacob told her.

She nodded, but then fainted. Emmett got to her before she hit the ground.

Emmett took her to her room, so she could heal. She was out for a week.

"So what are you going to do?" I asked Alexis.

"Travel, look for my mate," she told everyone.

"No need, in a few years your true mate will be born here, in Italy," Marcus told her.

"I wanted to apologize to you guys, for anything I did," she whispered.

"It's okay, but we do have a question. Why?" Jane asked.

"Jonathan can kill you in seconds. He killed my brother. He was just three years old when he died. What would you do if the person you loved had died, and your parents disown you? And one person acts to love you," she asked us.

"Go with that person, no matter what," Paul answered.

"Luis reminded me of Brandon, they were alike in so many ways. They were young, funny, caring, there for you, and dead," she cried.

"Brandon Hart?" Aro asked.

"Yeah," Alexis answered.

"He's not dead," Aro told her.

"I saw him die, I felt his heart stopped," she told him.

"He's in this guard. He didn't die. He was alive, but barely. I was able to help him get better. When he turned seventeen, he was changed. He would never stop talking about his big sister. He knew you were a vampire. He went to look for you and will be back in a few days," Aro said.

She smiled and looked as if she could, she would cry.

Fuzzy went up to her and licked her face.

"I wonder if he will talk?" Emmett asked.

We all just stared at the bear, he stared back. 'I swear I just saw him smirk!'

Bella's POV

I still remember being surrounded by fire. It talked to me.

I opened my eyes and noticed I was back in the hospital room.

I couldn't speak, it hurt too much.

I needed to feed, to eat, but couldn't find anything. I waited until someone came in.

'Couldn't try hearing my heart?' I thought.

The door opened and someone entered. It was Paul. He froze when he saw me awake.

He ran out calling Carlisle. Everyone was in my room.

'I'm hungry,' I mouthed.

Seth left. I just laid there when Seth brought me food.

He smiled and I drank some water first.

My throat stopped hurting.

I ate and then put the tray next to me.

Carlisle started asking questions. I answered them.

A few months later, I was standing in front of everyone choosing my mate.

"So, no matter who I choose, the other two will still be there for me?" I asked.

All three nodded.

"I choose," I whispered, "you."

I looked at him and he had the biggest smile on this face. The other two just smiled.

"Don't worry, you two will have mates soon enough," Marcus told him.

I turned and he kissed me. I knew I made the right decision.
