SM Owns all things Twilight. But the current events in this story? Yeah, those are mine.

Peter and I ran as fast as we could towards the clearing. The smell of the burning vampire was still firmly clouding my senses and the taste of his venom was thick in my mouth. I would need to feed soon to get the foul taste out. I chuckled as Peter stepped on a fallen branch that buckled under his strength and he stumbled slightly.

"Oh hush." He frowned at me and I laughed a little louder.

"I just have never seen a vampire stumble before." I said through my giggles and he growled and shot me a wicked grin.

"You'd better watch it, kitten. They say we bring our strongest traits with us when we change and I'd say your strongest trait was your clumsiness."

"But you forget Peter, I'm a cat. Cats always land on their feet." I shot back and he grinned and shook his head.

We broke into the clearing and I immediately met the flat black eyes of the Major.

"What happened?" He asked immediately and Peter and I stopped in front of him.

"Eddie sent a scout and Bella and I greeted him is all." Peter said and I smirked.

"He was sent to locate the human and count our numbers." I supplied and the Major looked back and forth between us and I felt his eyes scanning me for injuries.

"Were either of you injured?"

"Bella didn't even give him a chance to know we were there before she had him pinned." Peter said and he looked at me with a grin. "Your girl is a natural at interrogation, Major." A prideful growl rumbled in Jaspers chest and I closed the space between us and nuzzled into him and I felt him bury his face in my hair.

"It's time to get this done, Jasper. We need to send most back to the house and send a small group to a meeting point." Peter interrupted our moment and I sighed.

"He is right."

Jasper lifted his head from my hair and his arms held me tighter to him. He looked around at the others and he straightened and I moved from his arms and stood at his side.

"Who is staying back?" Char asked and I looked around at all the faces of the people that had become my family.

"We will split everyone into two groups to wait in the woods. Stay at least 4 miles away so that Eddie can't hear your thoughts. Bella, you stay in the trees just on the outskirts of the field and make sure that you are hidden entirely and you will block our thoughts. Peter, Laurent, and Rose, you are all with me. Char you lead one of the groups and Chase, you get the other. Rachel, you get the other and both of you will hear from Bella when the time comes. All of you, be ready."

"Alec, Jane, come here." I called them forward and I hugged them both to me and they immediately held themselves tightly against me. "You watch out for each other, you understand?" I said and they both nodded. I kissed both their foreheads and let them go just for Jasper to pull them into a hug. I smiled at the picture they made before they broke apart and the twins went over to stand behind Char. "Alright everyone. Let's do this." They all nodded and the groups both blurred away and melted into the trees.

"Bells, run around the edge of the field a few times so your scent is everywhere and they can't track it." Peter said and I instantly complied. I bolted around the entire field, zigzagging back and forth in and out of the tree line and then joined them in the middle as Rose pulled out her cell phone and scrolled through her phone for Edward's number.

Peter pulled me into a tight hug and buried his head into the side of my neck.

"Soon it will all be done." He said and I nodded into his shoulder. I held him tightly for another long moment before pulling back. He placed a gentle kiss to my forehead before I moved on and hugged Laurent and then Rose. She held me to her and I breathed in her scent and I smiled as she nipped my shoulder.

"It's almost not fair that only Jasper gets to have your mark. The way we are all connected we should all have marks. A coven bonded by soul." Rosalie said and I smiled at her.

"So we will. Where do you want it?" I asked and she smiled brightly. He tugged down the neck of her shirt and pointed to the nape of the neck below Emmett's mark. I smiled and kissed the spot before thinking of our bond and biting her. My teeth sank through her skin easily and she didn't even flinch and I felt our bond expand. My eyes shut and I instinctively knew that she needed to bite me before I could release her. I held my wrist up to her mouth and she instinctively took it and her teeth sank through my skin. Light flashed before my eyes and I could feel the bond solidify and I lazily relaxed my jaw and removed my teeth from her neck. I licked the bite closed as she did the same to my wrist and I then I pulled back a fraction to look in her eyes. I could feel her mind somewhere in the back of my head and I smiled brightly.

"I don't need to block her mind anymore." I said without looking away from her. "Her mind is connected entirely to mine which means she is shielded." She smiled widely and pulled me into another hug. I pulled back and looked at the others. "Hurry up, who's next?" I said excitedly and Laurent stepped forward. He held his arm out to me and tapped the inside of his elbow. I smiled at him and again I focused on our bond before biting. I held up the wrist that Rose hadn't bitten and he sank his teeth into me after only a moment's hesitation.

Just like with Rosalie there was a flash of light before I felt his mind also in the back of my head. I pulled away and sealed his arm and laughed excitedly.

I turned and looked at Peter and I turned my back on him and moved my hair so that the back of my neck was bared to him. He moved up behind me and held one arm around my waist and he held his other wrist up in front of my face. I held his arm with both hands and didn't pause as I bit him. An instant later I felt his teeth break through the skin of my neck. I took a deep breath as the light flashed and our bond cemented itself. A sort if healing sensation swept through me to him and I let go of his arm and sealed the mark and he did the same. I turned and smiled up at him and he grinned back.

"Only with you would I let someone other than Char bite me." He said and I chuckled.

"Bells, I think when you bit Peter, your shield expanded." Rose said and I looked at her curiously. "I can't smell you anymore. Just like with Peter." I looked at Jasper who inhaled and then looked curiously at Rose.

"I can still smell her."

"You're her mate, Major. Of course you can smell her." Peter said and I smirked at them both.

"Little One, your mark is different than any I have ever seen." Laurent remarked and I flashed him a toothy smile to show off my new fangs.

"That was why we ran away into the woods. She managed a partial shift. Her hearing is enhanced like in her cat form and her canines are extended."

"Way to prove that Vamps do actually have fangs Bells." Rose snorted and I chuckled.

"That's not all that's changed." Peter said and I immediately looked at him when I heard his off tone. "You healed some of my scars Kitten." He held up his arm and my eyes widened as I noticed that all the surrounding marks on the inside of his wrist had disappeared leaving mine the only one in the area.

I flitted over to Jasper and looked at his neck and saw that it was the same. The area surrounding the bite had smoothed out a bit so that only my mark was clearly visible.

"How did we not notice that before?" I whispered and traced my fingers over his mark and he pulled me to him and dropped his mouth to mine in a burning kiss.

"We need to just stop being surprised when you do something new Bella." He whispered against my lips and I smiled and kissed him once more before pulling back.

"You guys should call Eddie and his merry band of psychos. I'm gonna go bite my friends." I chirped happily and took a step back and away from them as they all grinned at me. "I will be back soon and I will stick to the trees just in case."

"Be careful." Jasper said quietly and the others nodded their agreement.

I smiled and then turned and sprinted into the trees.

Rosalie quickly dialed Edwards's number and we all waited as it rang.

"Rosalie." Edward answered and I felt my eyes fix on the phone. This was the dill hole that hurt my sister.

"Edward, I heard that you were nearby. We thought it might be a good idea if you came to the clearing about 50 miles south of you so we can try and talk a little bit."

"Things are a bit out of hand aren't they?" Edward said in an almost wistful tone. The little fucker was actually enjoying this.

"So will you come?" Rose asked and we waited a minute as Edward debated.

"How do I know that you won't attack me when I get there?"

"You don't know that. But we won't. We would like to negotiate peacefully if at all possible. Feel free to bring a few of your friends with you, so long as they can control themselves."

"What do you mean control themselves?" Eddie asked and I almost snorted.

"Bella is rather fond of this clearing. If they have trouble keeping a straight head with her scent around, then I recommend not bringing them."

"Will Bella be joining us?" Edward asked slowly and I felt a wave of fury roll over me from Jasper who was staring off into the forest with empty black eyes.

"That is up to her. But you won't touch her if she does decide to come. Besides, she needs to eat, so if she does it will be once we have already started."

"I will be there in a half hour."

Rose shut her phone and pocketed it and she looked between the three of us who were now looking at her.

"Bella will lead the others here once she has bitten them." She stated and I nodded.

"Once their minds are shielded, she will set them up in their positions, just far enough away that they can't be smelled." I supplied and Rose nodded and her hand went up and rubbed at her new mark.

"Who would have thought that the little girl we first met in Forks would turn out to be such an amazing vampire." She mumbled and Jasper cracked a smile.

"She always was pretty weird." He snorted and I grinned. We were ready for this.

Char POV

I heard someone approaching fast and everyone around me stilled.

"It's me!" Bella called as she broke through the bushes and she stopped in front of me with a wide smile, shimmering eyes, and windblown hair. "Guess what I can do?!"

Yeah, Bella Badass strikes again.

The next chapter is already up and running so no worries about the wait. Even I cant wait for the next part.

As always, please let me know what you think.

Love ya,
