Book 3 – Chapter 6: Army & Jane

The army has arrived. I stood in the field with Edward, Alice, Jasper, Jacob, Seth Clearwater, Leah Clearwater, Embry and Paul. While the others were with Carlisle, Rosalie, Emmett and Esme. We heard the army trample forwards through the bush, propelled by my human mingled scent, and Edward moved protectively to my side. "I love you" he murmurs and I shake my head.

"We Will get married Edward. I promise" I say and he nods, cold and protectively. I see the army of newborns, ten of them, trample forwards towards us. All eyes on me. Carlisle runs towards one of the eleven, Jasper takes on a girl with brown hair. Edward leaves to fight a tall boy about two years younger while I, was left to fend for myself. A blond girl ran forwards and ran at me, I ran straight into her, knocking her to the ground. She growled and in my peripheral vision, I saw Edward look up at me, loosing focus. Two Vampires grabbed him and in the blink of an eye, the blonde girl before me was destroyed by a wolf, Seth. I saw the girl attempt to bite Edward and I ran after her. "Don't you dare" punch. "Touch" there goes her arm. "MY" her other arm. "EDWARD" I growl as I rip of her head. I turn and see Edward dealing with the other boy and then, he rips of his head. He grins. I turn around and see another two come towards me and suddenly I'm on the ground. The boy bites me on my lower left arm and I scream, drawing attention to myself on the ground as I receive another bite on my shoulder. I scream again.

"Victoria and Riley" Edward murmurs as he takes the boy off me and destroys him. I take care of the other boy. "Some of the wolves are in trouble. GO" Edward says towards the wolves and Alice and Jasper. They run away and we see Victoria walk out with a boy by her side. Edward growls. "Touch Bella and your dead to me" Edward growls as he runs towards Victoria and the boy stares at me.

"Riley, you don't have to follow Victoria. This whole sherade was to avenge her true mate, James. Please don't do this. You can walk away now" I say and he looks at Victoria. I take his moment of doubt to attack Victoria, pulling her off Edward while Edward attacks Riley. Suddenly, I feel a bite in my upper arm and scream. With a quick jab, I push Victoria off of me. Within three and a quarter seconds, Victoria is destroyed and thrown into the fire. I turn to see Edward collecting pieces around off the grass and throwing them into straight into the fire with perfect aim. He turns to me.

"Are you alright?" he asks as he assess my arm. I nod.

"It hurts" I moan in a weeping voice. He frowns and kisses me. "I was right" I say as I hug him. He sighs as he picks me up and carries me somewhere.

"Edward, what happened to Bella?" a voice calls out in the distance

"She was bitten, three times. She's in pain, it will pass. I just can't bare it. . How long Alice?" Edward asks and she sighs.

"Three minutes. Bella will still be like this…" a voice, Alice says and I open my eyes and look at Edward.

"Can't you do anything to stop it?" I moan and he shakes his head.

"It'll pass love" he says and I nod as I curl back up to him.

"Why do you think they tried to bite me?" I ask in a pained moan. Edward sighs.

"Because you were with Charlie before the fight, remember? Your scent would have mixed with Charlies and his with yours. You smell like a half human" Edward says and I nod as the pain gets worse. "It has to get worse before it gets better" Edward says as I moan and I nod. He sighs. "I wish there was something I could do" he says and I shake my head.

"It's fine" I say as I stand up. "I'm fine" I say as his hand looks at the marks in my skin. "They're ugly on me" I wine and he shakes his head.

"They're beautiful. It shows everyone how brave you are and selfless and…" Edward says but he never even finishes the sentence before I press my lips to his. He moans as I slide my hand up to his head with a smile. Jasper coughs, as per usual.

"Wanna keep it on the down low please?" he asks and I laugh quickly before groaning. The pain over takes me and Edward frowns. "Edward, just let her for a bit, they're coming" Jasper says and he nods as he holds me against his chest.

"Seems we missed an entertaining fight" the cold voice of Jane rings out into the field. "What's wrong with your mate?" Jane asks and I shiver.

"She was bitten, three times" Edward says and Jane hums.

"Pity" she says coldly. "I've never seen a coven escape an attack of this magnitude" Jane says.

"We were lucky" Carlisle says. "I hope you could please send my regards to Aro" Carlisle says changing the topic.

"Yes of course. I must ask you not to mingle with humans. If they know too much then you know what that means" Jane says and I feel Edward's body move. "And Aro extends his invitation to Alice, Bella, Edward and Jasper. He hopes that one day, you'll join him" Jane says. I shiver at the image of Aro's dream, us four walking alongside him with black cloaks. "Bon Voyage" She says before leaving. The pain overcomes me, downgraded a lot more than before, but not so bad.

"You ok?" Edward asks me and I nod.

"Yeah…it's better now" I say. "It's still painful, not so bad as before." I say with a shrug, causing a hiss to escape my lips. He hugs me tightly and says something to the others, before picking me up and within three and a half minutes, we were in our meadow, the flowers in a nice purple shade. He lays me down on the grass and I curl up to him and he smiles. "Distract me" I say and he smiles as he presses his lips down to mine.

"BELLA CHARLIE'S AT THE HOUSE WITH RENEE AND PHIL" Alice calls from the other side of the meadow. I smile as we run back to the house to greet my parents.
