I Have A What?

We returned home only a few hours later to find that Rose and Emmett weren't the only ones there. We were still a fair ways away from the house when I smelt the foreign scents, causing me to growl loudly – I couldn't help it, it seemed like a reflex reaction to protecting my family. Edward had turned to me in surprise and confusion.

"There's someone else at the house," I explained, sniffing the air again.

He blinked in surprise and sniffed himself, but still looked confused.

"You can smell them from here?" he asked.

I stopped running and so did Edward, turning to look at each other.

"You can't?" I asked.

He shook his head, "I can hear their thoughts but I can't smell them."

"Is our sense of smell enhanced as a new born?" I asked in confusion.

"No," he told me. "Usually only our strength and speed are enhanced.

I stared at him for a moment before shrugging it off, "Well I can smell them from her.

"Who exactly is it, by the way?" I asked Edward.

"Alice and Jasper," he said, making me relax, before he frowned. "Alice is singing in her head to keep me out."

I nodded, smiling at Alice's antics, before taking off in the direction of the house – making sure to slow down to Edward's pace.

"Bella," Alice called as she came running out the back door of the house. Just as she started to come toward me, she froze and went into a vision. Jasper came running out behind her and in the pretext of wondering what Alice was seeing, placed him self between the two of us.

Alice came out of the vision seconds later and started bouncing excitedly up and down.

"What are you hiding, Alice?" Edward asked next to me, obviously still unable to get through to her real thoughts.

Jasper turned around at the sound of Edward's voice and looked at us for the first time. When he did, I felt something push against the weird presence that I'd been feeling around my body since the moment I woke up. I felt myself push back against it, almost in subconscious protection, and I felt it stop pushing against me.

Jasper blinked in surprise and stared at me in confusion.

The second he did, Alice squealed loudly next to him.

"What is going on, Alice?" Edward demanded.

She grinned hugely and continued bouncing in excitement as she answered me, "Bella's got a power!"

I just stared at her in surprise, along with everyone else.

"I have a what?" I asked in shook.

She just grinned larger as she explained, "When you woke up, yours, Edward's, Rose's and Emmett's futures all disappeared. When you took the phone off Edward earlier, Jazz's future disappeared for the time that the two of you talked. When you and Edward to decided to go hunting, Rose's and Emmett's futures reappeared and when you returned just them all four of our futures disappeared along with yours and Edward's that I haven't been able to see since you woke up.

"You seem to be able to stop me from seeing your, as well as anyone around you, future and by the look of it, Jazz can't use his power on you either," she told us.

"You're saying I can now block out all vampire powers?" I asked after a shocked silence.

"Seems like it," she told me.

"How come everyone else gets the cool powers?" Emmett suddenly whined.

In true Rose style, she reached up and smacked him upside the head, shaking her own, while the rest of us chuckled at them.

"Do you think that the shield could be spread to other people?" Jasper asked, suddenly.

"I don't know," Alice admitted. "But it is highly possible. I just really hope that we can find a way to control which powers you block out and which ones you don't."

We all walked into the house then, deep in thought – well, except for Emmett, who was still grumbling about not having a power.

As we all sat down in the living room, something suddenly occurred to me.

"Jazz," I said, suddenly. "Can you try to read my emotions again?"

He stared at me for a brief moment before I felt the strange sensation of something pushing on the strange presence.

"I can feel it," I told them.

"Huh?" Emmett asked in confusion.

"I can feel Jasper's power pressing in on me," I told them.

"Can you let it reach you?" Edward asked, his hand rubbing calming circles on my back.

"I'll try," I said before focusing on Jasper's power that was still pushing in on me. This time, however, I didn't push it away; instead, I followed my instincts and felt the presence open slightly to accept Jasper's power.

"Wow," Jasper suddenly breathed, blinking in surprise. "It's like your emotions just suddenly appeared."

"Edward," Alice commanded before anyone else could comment. "Go call Carlisle."

Edward had Carlisle on the phone in seconds, explaining what was going on.

"We're going to figure this out," Alice told me in determination before grinning hugely at me. "I want my visions back."

I couldn't help the laugh that escaped my lips.

It had been a week since I was changed and I hadn't lost control over my blood lust yet and apparently I was confusing Jasper beyond belief. He had, in fact, said that in the moments during training that I let him see my emotions that my control over my blood lust rivaled Carlisle - though, I was yet to actually come in contact with a human other then the occasional hiker's scents in the wood, none of which I'd showed the slightly interest in.

Carlisle, Esme, Alice and Jasper had all been stopping by the house when they got the chance and were sure that no one would notice their absence. Thanks to training with Carlisle, Alice and Jasper, I was now able to block Alice's and Jasper's powers when I wished and let them get through my 'shield', as I know called the strange presence around me. Most of the time I let Alice have free reign over her power when ever she was looking at something involving me – unless I wanted to annoy her – but I rarely ever let Jasper see my emotions other then during training.

We'd also discovered on my third day that I was indeed stronger then Emmett – he was still bugging me about a rematch – as well as having better hearing and sense of smell then the others.

There was still something bothering me, though, and that was why Edward and I sat in Carlisle's office during his day off. He'd been here to help my practice some more with Alice and she'd just recently returned to school because Snape was about to insist that McGonagall check that all her students were indeed at school.

"What's bothering you Bella?" Carlisle asked me in concern as Edward reached over and squeezed my hand reassuringly.

"I've told you before what my shield feels like," I started, to which he nodded. "Well there's a second strange presence that I haven't told you about yet."

"Is it similar to you shield?" Carlisle asked, this time in curiosity.

"It's similar," I tried to explain. "But this one's more in my head then surrounding my body."

He nodded, staying deep in thought for a moment before answering.

"It could be you mind shield," he pointed out.

"That was what I thought originally," I admitted. "But I can't feel it when Edward try's to read my mind."

"Hmm," he mumbled, thoughtful again.

Edward's hand reached up and lifted my chin so that I was looking at him. He moved my hair out of my face and I felt his fingers brush over the only imperfection left on my body after my change and kiss it softly.

My Scar.

Some how, the venom hadn't been able to get ride of it and it meant that it was there for all of eternity. Though, it was part of what made me who I am and it marked me as a witch, so I didn't really mind.

Suddenly, a realization struck me.

I knew what the presence in my head was.

A bit of a cliff hanger!
