Chapter Fifty Three

Madison's PoV

This witch, Huleinette... she was hiding something, something important. I didn't know if it was by my blood or the power I welded in my mind that I knew this. All I knew was she was hiding something that was taring her up from the inside.

Something She Needed To Tell Us.

Something She Didn't Want To Tell Us.

Something We Needed To Know.

I hated been a kid. It was frustrating, I was physically six years old now and could probably survive and look after myself, I was well beyond the normal capabilities of a child my age. I knew what she needed to tell us was dangerous. DEADLY.

"What is wrong with you. What do you need to tell us." I hissed under my throat to the woman devouring two giant muffins sat beside me.

"I-I- You're a witch blood." She said, trying to change the subject.

"Yes, I know. I can feel that you're been eaten up. What is it you need to tell us." I said again, giving her a chance.

She came down to my level, and whispered in my ear, "Times are changing. You must pick a side and stand. Dangers lurk in every corner Beware, little witch blood. It is the most powerful that will perish first because of their own arrogance."

I pulled back, frightened by the words. Then I realised something, the words had not been spoken in the air, but between our minds. In Our MINDS.

I wanted to get away from this woman, she was dangerous... or what had come with her was dangerous.

How did I know this though? I didn't even know this woman!

Eddie's PoV

I didn't like this woman. She was making my little sister uneasy, I could see that, and what I sensed on her was... strange. Or not on her, but INSIDE her. She was... frustrating. Confusing.

As she blatently ignored my little sister, I wondered if Madison had spoken to her, or even saw what I did in the witch. I needed to talk to Madison.

I looked to Madison and rubbed my head slowly like I had an itch, in a second I heard her mind open to the question of, What Eddie? You know I can only use one power at a time and dad will be able to read my thoughts!

Chill, Maddie. Can you sense it? I nuged my chin towards Huleinette.

What?! You can feel her... Badness? She struggled to find the right word as I had.

Not badness... I thought towards Madison.

I have to stop talking now. Meet me in the park. Don't bring anybody. !2'oclock. Madison was so bossy sometimes.

She didn't give me chance to reply before she closed her mind to all outward thoughts been transmitted in or out. I didn't nod. Nobody suspected our distrust towards the witch. I liked how she wanted to keep the others out of it though. Madison regarded herself different to anybody exept me. She wasn't arrogant of the fact, the opposite really. She hated been a vampire, and hated been a witch blood vampire even more.

She just didn't like to discuss things with others much, she put up too much of a facade.

Renesmee's PoV

I knew that look, Eddie and Maddie were plotting something. They were doing their silly speaking thing. Madison was a pain. Eddie was a bigger pain. Trying to hide things from me because I was a half breed. Typical.

I stood, and trying to act discrete, I picked a muffin up and sat in the empty seat next to Eddie, Jacob gave me a slight shocked look from the end of the table, and I signaled for '1 minute.' I sat down and touched Eddie's arm, fast, I know you and Madison are up to something. Spill.

Eddie frowned and looked to Madison, Maddie sighed and opened her mind again. You caught us, we think the witch is bad.

Eddie rolled his eyes, there's something fishy about her. She talked to Madison in her head and now she's making us both on edge.

I gasped slightly, I thought she seemed nice. Is this to do with you witch blood? I asked, intruiged.

I think so. Madison explained, if you want to talk without the possibility of dad spying, then meet us at 12 in the park... If you want tell the others.

I nodded and stood, going back to Jacob and touching each of my cousins, Tara and Charlotte with the same message. Mary was too young to understand.

I sat at the table with Jacob, watching as he stuffed his face, he didn't talk to me much as he ate.

He had his fill and then began to speak, "What stunt are you children pulling this time?" Jake frowned.

"Nothing." I frowned heavier than him.

"I saw you touch Eddies arm and the concentrated looks on each of your faces."

"Well done Sherlock." I grinned trying to lighten the mood.

"Well what ever it is, don't put yourselves in danger." He laughed then, his beautiful face lighting up wonderfully, and sudenly, everybody was laughing for no reason, all exept Huleinette, Madison and Eddie.


unknown Person's PoV

Noon

Children, but these were not my prey. A witch was the devine creature I was hunting today. Nothing could change that. I hunted witches for a reason. They were more powerful than human's and transformed us into something more that what we already were. I'm a dying breed.

I sniffed the air, the children multiplying now... five of them had gathered. A cappuchino coloured one, the other's pale. Two dark haired children and the other had red hair and blonde hair. They were all unnaturally not human. Shame I was hunting witch today.

It was simple really, I needed to follow the scent, but she was been protected by...!

I could use the children as leverage. Bargin for the witch. I laughed morbidly as I began to stalk the talking children...

Tara's PoV

We were all talking about the witch. Huleinette who seemed so nice, and they all seemed to have a problem with her.

"Don;t you think you may be blowing things a little out of proportion here guys?!" I asked, quietly yo Eddie who was now so different to the young child I remembered that I was intimidated by him. I looked 10, maybe 11. Eddie looked about 13 and was not overly tall, about 5 foot 5. Where as i just 4'10.

He looked down at me and I cringed. "No, Madison is the most intuitive of us all. SHe wouldn't lie, and I felt it too. Are you questioning my honor?" He asked me, very oddly phrased.

"Um. No." I replyed.

"Good. Now Madison, what really was the problem with her? Explain. Fully, and tell us all what she said to you." Eddie said to Maddie.

"She said..." And then Madison paused suddenly. She froze. Looked up and we all followed her eyes. There was nothing there.

"I saw something!" She yelled.

"No you didn't." I said, Madison annoyed me sometimes.

"I did, I sware!"

"Nothing was there, Maddie, honest." Renesmee said, soothingly.

"There it is again!" She pointed to another tree. We all missed her imagianary monster again.

This kid was a good lier. Not good enough though. Not good enough to fool me.

"I saw it that time." Charlotte said, cringing at the look Eddie gave her.

"Are you sure?" Eddie asked Charlotte.

Renesmee gasped as I caught sight of the shadowed figure. It was running in a blur. Too fast for us to see, to get a lock on it. As fast as a vampire. Faster...

I froze as a being appeared infront of us. I was stunned into silence, he was possibly the single most beautiful person I had ever seen. His hair was a rich white blonde, his skin suntanned. He had strong lines on his face and a day old beared. His body was lean, tight and muscular and all he wore was a white tank top and black shorts. His eyes were a startling shade of black. Blacker than any creature I had ever seen in my short life.

"If you move, you die." He spoke in a voice unlike any I had ever heard, it was higher than I expexted, but still manly. It had no gruffness, him voice was beautiful, but the beauty was clouded by his words.

"Who the hell are you?" Eddie asked the man. The man moved in as blur, pinning Eddie to the ground.

"I am the person that will kill you if you speak another word." He hissed into Eddie's ear. As the man moved, Eddie stood, genuin fear in his eyes. Not much could take Eddie down, and this man just had.

Now I was scared. Really scared. I turned to see Charlotte standing infront of a trembling Madison. I felt guilty I had thought she was lying. She looked at me, and I looked at her. I moved my hand once to rub my head, if anybody could get a signal to the adults this far, it was Renesmee or Madison. Madison blinked and opened her mind to us all, leaving us all free to talk.

But as soon as she opened her mind, it was brought down again but her fear. Renesmee. It was upto her. I tried to confuse the man by making him see more children, but he seemed oblivious.

"You think your tricks can work on me? CHILDREN. That is what you are, Children! You have no idea what I can do, so go ahead. Call your parents... Renesmee." He laughed this horrible laugh that echoed eirrily around the tree tops and scared every animal within hearing range.

"I won't!" Renesmee said fearlessly.

"Then you will die." The nightmare man moved towards Renesmee and with a quick side blow to the back of her neck, a loud crack spiltted out amoung us. Nessie fell to the floor, Eddie caught her before she fully hit the ground.

The man had broken Renesmee's neck.
