Bella McLeod
Healer
This is my first Twilight fic, and it is a femlash, featuring Bella and Rosalie as a couple. So, if you don't like, please head somewhere else.
As an introduction, you may want to read "Snape McLeod" since the Bella that trained Tobias there is the same one here, only a decade later. It's not a requirement for you to read it, especially since I try to untangle things as the story progresses. I altered the timeline to fit my needs, so… she met Snape in 1997, they parted ways in 2000 and it is now 2011, when she moves to Forks with Charlie.
Bare in mind that I do not own Twilight, nor its characters, so if you recognize any of them, THEY'RE NOT MINE. I only own the idea of making Bella Swan part of Clan McLeod.
I also not own the Highlander series, characters and concepts.
Remember to leave your reviews…

Chapter 28
Healer
"I've a question, well several questions about them. But one now in particular" I told them.
"About the Volturi?" asked Esme seeetly. I nodded.
"Ask away" Said Alice smiling at me
"Does anyone have records of them knowing about other err, let's call it 'magical' creatures?" I asked thinking about Tobias and all the creatures he taught me about. After all, his kind knew about Vampires. Then again, apparently everyone knew about vampires, just not accurate information.
"You mean like yourself?" asked Carslile.
"No… not exactly. More like fearies or werewolves?" I asked hesitantly
I could see Carslile ponder this and sorting through his options in a way to answer, which was an answer itself, still I waited patiently for him to verbalize "Yes. There were werewolves at some point, they are supposed to be extinct. And there are shape shifters too. Though the Volturi do not know their location, which is good seeing as they would try to exterminate them too." He finally said
"I'll love to see Tobias face when I tell him this" I said chuckling
"You can't tell anyone about us, or other creatures" said Carslile "The Volturi are dangerous"
"Oh, Tobias already knows about your kind. And werewolves too, though I did not completely believe him when I first lived with him… this reminds me…" I told them while taking out my phone again and dialing Charlie.
"What happened now? Who showed up?" He asked as soon as he answered
"Everything's fine Charlie, gee… you and Duncan are the worse! You just jump to the worst possible scenario" I said into the phone while taking Rosalie's hand in mine again
"Well with how everything's happened the last couple of weeks, it is to be expected" he said tiredly
"Try the last few months… I'm beginning to think that the accident that brought me here, may have not been an accident at all"
"What you mean?" He asked me and I could see the vampires in the room cocking their head trying to figure out what was this conversation about.
"We'll talk about it when Duncan and you come over" I told everyone smiling at Rose. "But we ought to figure out how long has there been a pricing on my head. And how they found me here so fast"
"Yes, that is troublesome. Not many people knew you were here" he added thoughtfully
"Anyway, just called to ask you for an extra favor. When you come over, can you bring the stash Tobias and I worked on?"
"Sure. Any special indications?" he asked worriedly as he had actually been witness to a badge going wrong.
"Don't drop the vials" I said smiling and ending the call
"How long do you think you've been targeted?" asked Rose concerned
"Not sure. Might be just a little while. Might be longer. I know thanks to Trick that the price is high. Higher than most."
"How do you know that? When did he tell you?" asked Esme
"When the Quicky ended, I knew everything he did. It was so intense because he had a lot of knowledge that he had accumulated through the years" I said hoping I was being clear enough
"Quicky?" Asked Jasper, speaking for the first time as I finished eating what was on my plate
"Quickening. The lighting storm" said Rose for me. "It happens every time one of them is defeated" she said sadly
"We saw the lighting hit you" started Carslile "Would the lightening also hit us if we were to behead any of your kind?"
"No" I told them "Only other Immortals can receive the knowledge"
"Technically, we are Immortals too" said Emmet
I thought about it… maybe Emmet had a valid point. Vampires were indeed Immortal. "Maybe so, but you can't interfere on this just to test a theory" I told them
"How about Raoul?" asked Rose about to start growling again. I kissed her softly to avoid that.
"As amusing as it is to hear you growl, I think we have bigger issues than finding out if you vamps can have a Quicky"
"How are you so calm about this whole situation?" asked Jasper intrigued. I just shrugged. I honestly had no answer to that. Maybe after living with Tobias for years, and what he taught me, not many things could startle me or stress me out.
"Hey, weather is changing for later today. Wanna go play ball?" suddenly asked Alice to her family. Rose looked expectantly at me, as if I had the final say.
"I'll probably only watch you, but go ahead and have fun" I told her squeezing her hand
"Then it's settled." Said Alice happily. "We finally have a cheerleader" she added as she merrily left the kitchen followed by a grinning Emmet. Short after, we all did and settled in the living room. I was happily cuddled against Rose when Edward came back, he looked at us and scoffed again before heading for the Piano and settling to play a lovely tune that lulled me to sleep.
A/N: Yes super short, just now getting back into the groove of writing and the mood of this story…
No words are enough to apologize for the long delay, nor to express my gratitude to everyone who is still reading this…
