Thank you russeyfurbr and Cat181 for your reviews. Missionarycook, I know I always give twists in every chapter and that I keep the identity of the creature in secret and I was going to hold it for longer but I will just give you some hints about it in this chapter. There still need to be a few more twists in this story. I already have the storyline worked out but any ideas are welcome.
Chapter 36: Feeling
Aimee's POV
It wasn't fair. Nessie could project thoughts through touch. EJ just by looking at you could do the same plus protect your mind. Anny could see the past and project it. Amont had shield and now Brandon could stop time and make it go forwards or backwards. I had nothing. It wasn't fair. I was not gifted like them.
"Could it be possible that Brandon could stop time and take another person with him? Would it be possible for him to find out what the creature really is before he sent the flames?" Grandpa asked pacing around the room.
"That way he would be able to take Amont with him just in case," dad said.
"Certainly not," Diana protested. "What if something goes wrong?"
"That is why we need to practice," Faron said. "Today is a great day to do so."
I didn't hear anymore. I walked out of the house and walked straight towards the forest. After a few minutes of walking I started running. The wind whipped my hair behind me. I knew I wasn't as fast as a vampire but I was close to be one. I was faster than a hybrid. I stopped when I got to a meadow. It was wide and flowers were blooming as it was already spring. Winter had passed by before my birth. There was no snow though I did have the opportunity to see some after my birth. The sky was pale with clouds as the day was bright despite the lack of sun. I hadn't seen the sun now that I think about it.
I sat down and felt fear but it wasn't mine. I pulled my legs to my chest and warped my arms around them. This place was full of tension and for some reason I felt the urge to stay longer. I stared at the sky wondering how many stars there would be at night. I have heard that if you make a wish to the first one you see it would come true. I wish I had a star right now. See the beauty of twilight in the sky as I have only been able to see it from a picture hung on the wall of the living room.
Terror was in the air and nervousness. It comforted me in a strange way. I looked across the meadow sensing someone. A giant wolf slowly brought his head out of the trees. This heartbeat racing as if he was struggling between the thought that he could come to me or not. I did my best to smile at him. He slowly paced toward me. I hadn't been too much around wolves. Only Jacob but he was always with Nessie for some reason. Jacob was always in his human form, though.
Seth started to walk towards me. I knew who he was. I could smell his sweet scent from a long distance. He was always close but never that close. I don't understand why but he feared dad for some reason. My dad either hated him or Seth had done something bad, it was the only explanation my mind could bring out for his behavior. Seth sad down next to me in his wolf form and looked at me.
"Hey Seth," I said lowly. "Have you been fine?" he nodded slightly. "What happened here?" I asked looking at the meadow. Seth stood up and trotted towards the trees. He came back a minute after changed in his human form with only shorts. "What happened here?" I asked again.
Seth sighed and sat next to me looking at the meadow's center. "Nearly a war," he said. "Before you and your brother were born. Before EJ was born and the hybrids were here, just after Nessie's birth the Volturi came."
"The who?" I asked.
Seth stared at me for a moment before realizing that I knew nothing about them. "It's like the vampire police, they live in Italy. They came here after they found out about Nessie. They though that she was an immortal child and an abomination to their race. They knew nothing about us shape-shifters. We came here, we spoke, we won, everything is fine," Seth said.
I nodded unsure, "Oh, okay," I said. Still something about this tension is comforting. I didn't know why but that was how I felt.
Lily's POV
A man appeared out of nowhere from the shadows. He wasn't there before. The man across him had black hair that reached his ears and a black cloak that held some type of force that blurred him in my vision. Still I was powerful enough to see his face. Green eyes and he looked as though he came from England.
"Brother," said the man in the cloak. "I cannot keep up doing nothing. How long till you realize they are a danger for us? All of them, both kinds. What will we do now?"
"Silence Draco," the other man said. He was vampire, pure and cold hearted. The other was a creature, cold hearted as the vampire but in him I saw a difference from the rest. Power was within him. Either from age or experience but that power is one I cannot hold. "Be patient, let them get used to it and then you attack."
"Next time I do I will take some of them with it," Draco spat. He had a heartbeat. I was aware of what he was but it was him that I couldn't fit into his body and the mix-up became more.
"Yes," the vampire said. "I hadn't thought of that my dear Draco. Killing them one by one and then at the end they will kill each other or simply themselves."
"Do I have permission?" Draco asked.
"You do," the vampire said. Draco nodded and disappeared in a billow of black smoke. The vampire smiled. "Lily, someone will have fun today. You open your mouth and you know what will come," he said in a snarl and lunged at me.
I jerked back and nearly tripped over my own feet on my chamber. This isn't good, I have to warn them. My hands found candles and several things I needed. I took a deep breath before starting my work. I was all but heartless. I wouldn't let this be. This isn't meant to be. This has all gone out of hands. Even if I am dead Master Aro will have to hear about this.
Thanks to all of you who reviewed and the ones that read my story. I am having problems with the next chapter because I don't know of whom will I write about. Any suggestion is more than welcome. Please leave a review.
