So without further ado,

Chapter 5

When I came down to make breakfast for the girls, I found that Charlie had already left for work.

I turned to the fridge, but a white hand pressed against the door keeping me from opening it. I glanced up and found myself staring into my love's eyes.

Edward leaned down and gave me a quick kiss, making Anna giggle. Cissy, hearing her sister giggle started laughing too.

Edward grinned but politely ignored them. "Esme is making breakfast for the three of you."

"Sounds good to me." And before I knew it, Edward had the girls in their car seats and me in the passenger seat of my car. I couldn't help laughing, Edward and his siblings loved driving my car. Edward of course though liked being behind the wheel. That was something we both shared.

"So what are the plans for today?"

"Outside!" Anna yelled.

Anna's yell startled Cissy and she started crying.

"Anna." I turned in my seat so I could try to comfort Cissy. She was behind my seat though so it was difficult. I reached to unbuckle my seatbelt only to find Edward's hand blocking me. I rolled my eyes.

"Please," I sighed obnoxiously, "it's not like I'm going to get hurt. You're the one driving the car, and you won't get into an accident. Besides my shield will protected me should something happen."

He didn't want to give in. "Anna can calm her down."

"I'll do it," Anna announced then.

I sighed and faced forward in my seat, while Anna took care of her sister.

"You're okay sissy," she said, letting Cissy take her hand.

We pulled into the Cullens' garage then and my door was opened for me. I smiled at Emmett who offered his hand. He grinned mischievously over at Edward who had just gotten out of the car.

Edward growled, and Emmett laughed as he swept me into his arms and took off running, with an angry Edward behind us.

I laughed and let my physical shield wrap around Emmett and myself. I mounted the shield to the ground and we were forced to a stop.

"What in the…" Emmett yelled. He pushed with all his might against my shield but it wouldn't be moved. For the fun of it I wrapped the shield tightly around us, so he couldn't move a muscle.

Edward stopped beside us, the shock was written clearly on his face. "Bella?"

His uncertainty in his voice was hilarious. I started laughing, losing control on my shield.

Emmett didn't realize he could move until Edward had taken me from his arms. I was too busy laughing.

Edward set me down beside the river behind their house, and Alice and Rose appeared beside us, with the little girls. The four of them had swimming suits on. Alice and Rose were wear bikinis, and thankfully the girls had on one piece suits. Anna knew that her mommy would never let her wear anything besides a one piece swimming suit.

"We're going to play in the water Auntie Bella." Anna grabbed my hand and tried to pull me into the river.

I shook my head. "I'll soak my feet, but I'm not going in, I didn't bring my swimsuit."

Alice piped up quickly. "There's a swimming suit in your clothes that I put in Edward's closet."

Just the idea of having clothes in Edward's closet made me blush, but the idea of what Alice called a swimming suit was beyond embarrassing. There was no way that she had gotten me a swimsuit that I would normally wear. In fact if I knew Alice, it would be a bikini, and I wasn't comfortable wearing that in front of Edward or his family.

Alice sighed in annoyance. "Come on Bella, you'll look fine."

"Not happening Alice," I growled.

"Alice leave Bella alone," Esme said as she handed me a plate and a glass.

There were two pieces of toast, scrambled eggs, and two pieces of bacon. My glass was filled with orange juice.

Alice rolled her eyes before taking Anna's hand.

"Anna needs to eat." Esme gave Alice a gentle but stern look.

Anna hurriedly ate her breakfast, wanting to play in the water.

We all laughed at her.

Esme handed a spoon and a bowl to Rose, I could tell what it was but Cissy sure got excited. She ate her food eagerly too.

I savored my food, and boy was it good. For someone who didn't need to eat, Esme was a fabulous cook.

Once Anna had finished her food she set her plate beside me and turned to Alice.

Alice reached her hand out towards Anna. "Take my hand Anna, it's kind of slippery."

Anna shook her head hurriedly, surprising Alice. I of course knew what she was going to say before she said it. "You need to take my hand Alice."

Alice glanced at me, then Edward, then Rose, before turning back to Anna. "Isn't that the same thing?"

Anna shook her head again, her curls shaking wildly. "No it's not. If I take your hand I might accidently let go. But if you take my hand I know you won't let go."

I glanced around, curious to see what everyone thought of Anna's words. Alice and Rose were surprised. Jasper and Emmett were shocked. Edward grinned proudly at Anna, he had already heard her words in her head.

Alice took hold of Anna's hand while Anna grinned up at her, and the two of them found a shallow part of the river to splash around in.

"Who taught Anna that?" Rose asked. She was holding Cissy up so she could kick her feet in the water.

Cissy squealed excitedly, kicking her legs faster, splashing Rose and me. We laughed at her excitement.

"Tessa's mom did. She taught her a lot of little lessons like that."

Rose smiled and went back to playing with her niece.

It was fun watching the two little girls play in the river.

I took their dishes once I had finished eating, and Edward and I took them in. When we walked back outside, Edward's skin shined like a diamond, sending little rainbows everywhere. His beauty doubled if not tripled in the sunlight. He always laughed when I would mention how I couldn't wait to sparkle too.

We joined Rose back at the river bank and watched the girls play.

It was nice to sit and just enjoy the day. It was a relatively warm day, and the sun kept ducking behind the clouds for a few minutes. Though it always came back for twice the amount of time it was gone. Alice had warned Carlisle that he wouldn't be able to hide from the sun so he wasn't able to go to the hospital.

So everyone was home and we were all outside. Esme was working in her garden with Carlisle. Jasper and Emmett were wrestling, and the rest of us were either in the river or beside it.

Eventually Emmett and Jasper were able to get Edward to join their wrestling match.

I moved closer to Rose. Taking my shoes off I soaked my feet like I told Anna I would. The water felt nice; I was relaxed quickly.

The day went by slowly, something we all enjoyed.

Esme made sandwiches for Anna and me, and after lunch Anna kicked a soccer ball around with Rose. Alice and I played with Cissy. Well actually we made sure she didn't crawl into the river. She clearly thought we were playing a game though, because every time we picked her up and moved her away from the water she'd crawl back towards it.

"Anna, sweetie, are you okay?"

The concern in Rose's voice made me turn to Anna.

Anna was rubbing her chest, and her face was a mixture of concentration and pain. "I feel weird."

I got up to go to Anna. "What does it feel like Anna?"

She shook her head her face twisting, leaning more towards pain now. "Don't know, but there's disaster," her little voice shook.

Out of the corner of my eye I saw Esme and Carlisle walk out from the garden. They had obviously heard Anna, since Carlisle had his doctor bag.

Jasper had also heard Anna that or he felt her distress. He paused, no doubt to see what she was feeling.

Emmett charged towards Jasper, he hadn't realized that Jasper's attention had shifted from the fight. Emmett slammed into Jasper, catching him off guard and he crashed into the trees behind him.

Poor Jasper went through the first tree, while the second tree stopped him.

We all watched the first tree fall, and the blood in my veins turned to ice.

Anna was right in the path of the tree, and I knew from Anna's face that she couldn't move.

I panicked, my only thought was I couldn't let her get hurt. My feet moved before I could push out my shield.

My world blurred and I could feel the rush of the wind pulling at my hair, and whistling in my ear. I couldn't see and I couldn't hear.

Arms wrapped around me and a split second later Anna was in my arms. My ears picked up the unmistakable sound of the tree landing behind us.

I was able to tell from his smell that Anna and I were up in Edward's arms. I buried my nose against his chest, trying to use his scent to calm me, even as Anna clung to me, crying.

My eyes needed time to adjust back to normal, all I could see at the moment was a blur of color. The adrenaline rush had me breathing heavily, and my gasping made it hard to hear.

I could hear Edward speaking but I wasn't able to understand the words. He tried to set me down on what I could only assume was the white couch, but I tightened my grip. I couldn't see, and until I could I wasn't going to let go of him. He was my life line.

He realized that I wasn't going to let go so he sat down, letting me sit on his lap. He rubbed my back comfortingly.

Calm filled me, and I silently thanked Jasper.

"Bella, can you hear me?" I heard Carlisle's voice, but it sounded far away.

The only thing I could really hear, was my uneven breath and Anna's crying.

I managed to nod my head.

The calming effects of Jasper's powers intensified. Slowly my heart beat returned to a steady pace. I felt Anna climb of my lap but I still couldn't see anything.

I rested my head against Edward's shoulder. He brushed his hand through my hair rhythmically, further calming me.

"What does the information box say?" Esme's voice filtered through my limited hearing.

Carlisle answer was a little bit louder, a sign that my hearing was slowly returning to normal. "Bella's instincts have increased, I'm assuming that's why she ran instead of trying to force her shield out towards Anna. Her vampire side has taken control of mobility."

"Now she's vampire fast," Emmett interrupted.

"No, she won't have her full speed until after the transition is complete." Again Carlisle's voice was louder. It was almost normal. "Her speed affects her sight and hearing. Her hearing seems to adjust easier than her sight though."

"What do you see Auntie Bella?"

I opened my eyes and blinked, trying to clear my vision. It didn't work. "Colors."

I felt Edward kiss the top of my head. "How long before Bella's eyes return to normal?"

"I don't know, there isn't a set amount of time, Edward. We'll just have to wait, and let her eyes adjust." Carlisle's voice turned thoughtful. "It's rather interesting, once your sight and hearing became unusable, your sense of touch and smell increased. Your senses were compensating for the loss."

"Someone should call my dad," I sighed, closing my eyes again.

My hearing finally returned to normal and I was able to hear Carlisle's side of the conversation.

"Afternoon Charlie. Nothing to be too alarmed by. Bella's gotten faster."

I almost laughed at Carlisle's attempt to keep the conversation sounding normal to whoever might over hear Charlie.

"She's alright, there's the issue with her eyes, but she's handling it pretty well. Is that really a good idea? Alright. That won't be a problem. We'll take care of her Charlie, see you tomorrow evening."

"What's up?" I was already dreading what my dad had said.

Carlisle's reply was sympathetic. "Your father says that you need to go for a run tonight; and since you need to run, it would be better to go before your eyes have already adjusted. He says it will be easier for you to learn how to slow down when you don't have very much energy. So run until you're tired but not so tired that you'll fall asleep before you get home."

I smiled at his use of home. I was glad to call their home my home, and that they felt the same way.

Edward stood and set me on my feet. "Let's go running."

I grimaced at the thought. Running was the number one cause of accidental death caused by the transition.

"What's are thinking about Bella?"

I would have laughed if I had any humor left when he pressed a penny into my hand. I heard Emmett's boom of a laugh, and Alice's bell like laughter.

I decided to be honest. "Well, um, trees, motion sickness, dying."

"Would I let a tree hurt you?" Edward laughed at the very idea.

"As for the motion sickness, you'll want to close your eyes," Carlisle reminded me.

I nodded, and tightened my grip around Edward's hand. I at one point would have had to trust Grandpa Ray, or a few of his vampire friends to be my eyes. Edward now was going to be my eyes. He and his family were going to have to help me until I could learn to control my speed.

Edward gently led me out of the house, and across the yard.

"Alright Bella," he carefully swung me up into his arms. "I'm going to jump over the river, then we'll have a straight path to run."

I nodded, glad that I was in his arms rather than on his back. While I liked riding on his back, I felt safer in his arms, and at the moment I needed to feel safe.

I felt him jump, and in the same second I felt us land.

Edward carefully set me down, and waited until I was steady. "Are you ready?"

I grimaced.

He placed a gentle kiss on my forehead. "I won't let you run into anything."

I grimaced. "Let me have your hand."

He chuckled lightly, surprising me. "No Bella, let me have your hand. I learned a very important lesson today and I'm not going to forget it."

Now I understood why he had laughed, and I laughed too.

He took my hand in his. "Don't forget to close your eyes," he reminded me.

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. "I'm ready."

We started off slowly and gently increased our speed until I found a comfortable pace that wouldn't wear me out so fast.

The wind caused by our speed roared in my ears, being the only sound I could hear. Remembering what Carlisle had said, I tested out my sense of smell. I could smell the dirt, and the trees, and even the moss on the trees.

Edward carefully led us through the forest, and I found myself wishing that I could see it. I opened my eyes, but all I could see was a greenish blackish blur. It gave me a headache almost instantly.

I didn't know how long we had been running, but I could feel myself tiring. I knew that my energy from the other world had been used up, and now I only had the normal energy of a human. It wouldn't take long for that energy to dwindle down; and I could feel the drain.

Edward must have known that I was tiring because I could feel us slowing down. Running turned to jogging and jogging turned into a brisk walking, which slowly turned to walking normally. As we slowed down, and the roar in my ears diminished, my hearing started returning to normal. By the time we were walking at a human pace, I could normally again.

I could sense that it was time to stop. If we went any farther I'd be too tired to work on my control, and I needed to be able to control my speed. I couldn't go out into the human world until I slowed down.

"Are you ready to head back?"

I nodded and opened my eyes. I still couldn't see anything but colors, but during the time we had gradually decreased our speed my eyes had been adjusting. The colors were sharper now, less of a giant blob.

Edward scooped me up in his arms and I closed my eyes again. I didn't want to chance my eyes getting worse rather than better.

"Whatever you do, don't fall asleep." Edward reminded me, pretending to sound stern, even though I could hear the smile in his voice.

I couldn't explain why, but for some reason the roar of the wind didn't affect me, like it did when I was running. I was still able to hear.

Edward came to a stop, and I heard him open a door, my guess being the front door.

"How did it go?" I heard Carlisle ask.

Edward and I walked in the direction of the living room. "It went well," he told Carlisle as we sat down.

Using my heightened sense of touch I realized we were sitting on the love seat.

"How do you think it went Bella?" Esme question came from my left.

I turned to the left and opened my eyes for the first time in the house since getting back. My sight was extremely fuzzy. I could make out a very fine outline of shapes, but all the colors still tried to blend together. I had to admit that what I was seeing was giving me more of a headache than just the colors.

"It was fine. It's a little frightening though, to be without my sense of sight and hearing."

"That's understandable," Carlisle replied. "We need to start working on your control, Bella."

I groaned but nodded in agreement, before getting up. "So, what's the plan?"

"Your father suggested that for tonight we could either stand in a circle or we can use points. I think it would be easier, at least for tonight, for us to stand in a circle. I can run around the inside of the circle and try to slow down. Or if you want you can run back and forth between point A and point B."

I couldn't help agreeing with Carlisle. The circle sounded easier to deal with, the only problem I could see was that I'd feel like a horse in a corral. I was too tired to care though. "Let's go with the circle."

I was led outside, where there was space for the seven of them to spread out. I ran around the circle, trying to force myself to slow down. It didn't take me long, but I had a feeling that was just because I was tired.

As my energy dropped, so did my speed, until I couldn't go any farther. Exhaustion finally caught up to me and my right foot tripped over my left.

Arms that could only belong to Alice, wrapped around me. She laughed gently. "Come on Bella, let's get you to bed."

The two of us walked back to the house, up the stairs all the way to Edward's room. I leaned heavily on Alice, but of course she didn't even notice it. I'm sure if I hadn't needed to work on my control, she would have just picked me up and carry me to the room.

Once in Edward's room, she helped me over to the bed and I sat down. A second later silk pajamas were tossed at me.

"There you go Bella. Good night."

"Night," I whispered back. I changed quickly and crawled under the covers. My head hit the pillows, and the last thing I heard was Edward's door opening.

Author's Note

So, what did you think about Bella's vampire speed taking over? How long do you think it's going to take before she can go out in public? Will she have enough control to go school when it starts back up? How many of you guessed that she'd get her speed before her strength? Any idea's when she'll get her strength?

kgarrison3, to answer your question, Charlie does help with the girls, but personally for me, I don't see him comfortable with helping during bath time. I hope that answers your question.

Look out for the Undermining.
