Chapter 11: Them Again and More

We reached the house and Aurora had barely parked the car before Tristan had picked her up and thrown her beautiful form over his shoulder.

"Tris-tan!" she yelled, exaggerating his name into two syllables.

"You're not getting away this time!" he laughed.

"Who the hell do you think you are?" she laughed. The ground in front of him rose into a wall and I saw her eyes. They were the terrifying vivid green again.

"Hold on a second darling, there seems to be a mountain in our way to our room," he swung her body around and had her tucked under his left arm. She crossed her arms and dangled there, looking very aggravated at being treated this way.

Tristan swung his left arm and rolled his broad shoulders; Aurora moved a swayed a little at his movements. She growled at him and violently tried to remove herself from his hold; his left arm stiffened and Tristan smiled at her as she struggled. She didn't give up for a good two minutes and when she did he laughed.

"Nobody's that strong…" he condescended. "I don't think you could get away from me if you had Emmett's strength and I had the same intentions as I do for you at this moment, now sit tight." He beamed cheerily.

She snarled and the wall grew thicker and taller.

Tristan swung back his right arm and smashed the earth-made hill to smithereens.

Aurora hung there with her mouth open. Tristan stepped over the remaining clumps of dirt and grass, and to my surprise…stone.

"Oouuu… that wasn't nice, baby." Tristan commented as he swung her back over his shoulder and started walking up the stairs two at a time. "I wasn't expecting stone."

"Ahhhhhhh!" she yelled out in frustration and he just chuckled. "Bella! Do something!"

I had been laughing and was caught by surprise by her aggressive request. She had turned her devastating eyes on Edward and I, and he stopped laughing too.

"What do you want me to do?" I yelped, looking at Tristan's broad back. Edward laughed at my tone and I briefly glared at him as I caught her words.

"This from a girl who shoots fire out of her hands! I'm sure you can think of something if you try really really hard!" she yelled as the door snapped shut.

Next thing I knew Edward was on top of me, kissing me. Then we were walking too. I noted the warmer temperature as we walked into the house.

We bumped into Tristan and Aurora who had stopped right inside the door and were kissing almost too fast to watch, of course - I wasn't watching; I was a little preoccupied.

We had started walking up the stairs and I was about to admit that my life was perfect, when I heard faint speaking voices and just got time to look at Tristan and Aurora who were frozen before the doors burst open.

I heard Aurora and Tristan snarl ferociously before Edward and I ran towards them. Vampires were pushing their way into the house and all of the Cullens were coming to our aid. Emmett stood by Tristan and managed to push all the invaders outside. Aurora and Alice were the next ones out the door screaming their own terrifying warning.

I realized that Tristan had a reason for forcing the vampires outside. I heard the roar of the river being diverted and I knew we were going to have to fight, Aurora and I. Edward and I were holding hands as we ran outside and I almost gasped; there were so many… at least 100, I recognized Darret fighting with Jasper.

Aurora was incredible, she was hurling boulders at vampires and even though they couldn't really hurt them, she was definitely keeping a majority of them at bay. The river was roaring behind the vampires and darting places randomly; knocking vampires down before they could jump on one of the Cullens. Hills were shooting up and creating domes; trapping vampires, everything was happening so fast and all at once.

Everyone but me was fighting, I was frozen. "Bella!" Aurora's beautiful voice was lined with strain. I snapped out of my shocked state quickly. I closed my eyes and let my instincts take over. It took about a second. When I opened my eyes I saw a man pouncing at me, I raised my palm and shot a shock at him, he was blasted on his back. He ripped his black shirt away from his chest to reveal a scorch mark.

"What the-" I let my searching mind go out and collected a lot of shock: 'who the hell are the beautiful girls?' 'how are the gorgeous ones doing that?' 'this red-haired guy is tough, I think I'm losing' 'holy shit-they can't be-…no, it's impossible…not now' ' I raised my hand again and let an intensified shock out and it hit him and went all the way through, he dropped back and I knew I had just killed a vampire. I would have to tell Edward there were two ways to kill a vampire: ripping one to shreds then burning the pieces… and me.

I knew…almost felt that the last thought came from Darret. Edward had just killed the man he was fighting and our eyes locked and I glanced at Darret. Edward looked at him then. His mouth dropped and he looked at me and I couldn't understand his expression, it was like disbelief and wonder. Then it changed as another vampire hurled himself at Edward. I raised my hand and released a high intensity shock I knew would kill in vampire. His body jerked and reversed motion midair… he fell to the ground… already dead. Edward looked at me and his expression was pained. I used my gift to absorb his pain and felt his reason: 'no…she can't be. There is no way my Bella is her. I have always known she was special…everyone has known that. But she and Aurora can't be them…it's impossible'

His feelings completely confused me. Who were "them" and why would Aurora and I be "them". Man I wish I could read thoughts… I probably have the closest thing to Edward's power I would get though.

Tristan was an executioner. That is the only word I can call him when he is killing. He doesn't think about it, I can see that when I watch him. It is purely instinct and no remorseful emotion is there, I reach out for him and I can absorb his strong dormant emotions but none are presently working.

I now reach out for all the emotions I can get as I walk among the mindless fighting. Aurora is in the center and I am making a trail of vampire bodies to get to her. My place is to be by her when fighting. She is the other part of my battle and I feel it now even though I am not sure if they are my own feelings or not.

I pass the mass of vampires all trying to jump Tristan from different directions. I see the wall of them Emmett is now facing and eliminating a couple to help him out. Aurora's eyes are a terrifying mix of water-blue and green. She smiles at me happily because she knows I am supposed to be here too.

I put my back to hers and I saw the thin whip of water she was weilding snap around our heads and I send out my mind and let it take in and absorb all the anger I could find. I knew anger was my most powerful weapon, the strongest emotional drive for violence.

I found very little and decided to take shock. There was no shortage of shock. I took it and caught the images from each of their minds, every single one of them came with an image of Aurora and I:

We were both standing back to back and Aurora's eyes were still the two colored mix that told me she was working with two elements. She was the most stunningly beautiful so I caught the image of her stronger. Next the focus of the images shifted to me, the dark haired one. My eyes were a light blue almost white and filled with shocks emitting from the obsidian irises. My hair was flying wildly and blinding shocks were emitting from my palms. They took us in as two opposite girls that were meant to be together. One a tall blonde the other a shorter brunette, I almost laughed at their thoughts of shock.- Even though we were killing them by dozens now that we were together; one of their main focuses was our stunning appearance.

"STOP!" Darret shouted and everyone stopped. The black shirted vampires withdrew to stand behind their leader. I noticed many of their eyes were bright red…as bright as mine. They were new vampires. This 'Master' Victor didn't waste time.

"Do you have any idea who you are?" Darret asked Aurora and I. I reached out for his shock to find the reason for what he was seeing: 'the prophet said they would come, this could be terrible if they don't join us, the prophecy can't mean now…' Great, I thought, now we were referred to as "they". Why won't people just say whatever they think we are?

Please review. I didn't get time to put up the other half of this chapter and I don't mean to leave you all with a cliffhanger, I am so sorry! I will have the next half up tomorrow…TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK! We are starting to get into the main part of the plot now! yay me!
