Fire and Ice
Part I

I watched the huntress step out of the canopy of moss. Serena. Her hair was a shiney black, her skin a blood-drained olive, and her eyes, like mine, brown, with a reddened tint. She was definitely Nahuel's sister. They shared the same eyes. Only, hers burned with excitement to practically tear me to shreds. She stared straight into my eyes to find fear. Only, she wasn't going to find any. Which surprised me. Serena and her entire clan, plus others, vowed to destroy me, an Nahuel. I was sure that when I saw her, I would shake. But I wasn't. Instead, I was enraged. My blood boiled.

The more I looked at her, the angrier I got. If it had been 10 years ago from now, It would be a different story. But I was angry now. I had spent 10 years running and hiding from my own shadow just to avoid Serena. I was done with it now, and I wasn't going to let them destroy my last visit with my possibly dying grandfather. My eyes tightened on her, adrenaline flooded my system to prepare me.

She seemed disatisfied when she did not find a trace of fear within my eyes and tightned her own eyes on mine. She finally spoke. Her chilling voice use to frighten me easily, but it no longer did now.

"Funny, when you are minding your own business and find yourself a dirty, rotten, animal. Funny, would you say Renesmee" Serena said. I had to laugh at the animal referrance. I was an animal. Taking taunting steps towards me.

She was smiling deviously, as a challenge to my own challenging smile.

"Funny, indeed. Especially when you're not in a physciatric hospital, and come across a raging psychopath anyway. Funny, would you say, Serena?" I retorted back calmly almost relaxed. Her smile fell into an angry frown as she glowered at me. She sauntered towards me again. I stayed still until she was just a few feet away from me and then I began to walk a slow, steady, and cautious circle around her.

"Interesting." she simply replied. "I watched you just a couple of minutes ago. Such an adorable child. I remember."

I hadn't noticed that we had traded spots within the clearing. She was by the tree I had pictures hidden. She reached her hand into the tree and pulled them from the hole in the bark. Destroying the protection it had around it, she pulled the pictures out and smiled mischeviously.

I tried not to flinch as much as I could. I cared nothing for Bella, but the pictures were MINE. I had my eyes trained on her as she flipped through the glossy pictures.

"Such a cute child. Practically dead when my father found you. Gave you shelter, aided you. Only for you to repay him so poorly." She said evenly. Keeping her eyes on the pictures as she flipped.

"Because he did such a good job of being what he use to think of himself," I challenged. "what was it again?" I said slowly, my words dripping with taunt. "A god?' I glared. "All he ever was to me, was a demon. A worthless, torture happy, piece of crap-" My words stopped at her look. I'd done it. I loved it. Her eyes blazed with fury.

She was quiet for what seemed like 10 minutes. Until she smiled at me wickedly. I was ready. My ability was in my holster. I was ready to draw before she did. She finally spoke.

"You talk very poorly of someone that is the father to your mate." Serena said.

"He's nothing like his father. Your brother has never done what your father has done." I replied.

"Ah, that is why my father will not think less of me slaughtering him before I do you." She said. Leaving me with chills up my spine.

"I will slowly take away every person you've ever come to love Renesmee. Your grandfather was on my list, but mother nature beat me to it. She's doing my job for me, and at an even more painfully slow rate. You actually get to watch him die at this rate." She said, flipping a few more pictures. Finally she was at the end of the stack.

I was seeing red at this point. My eyes were trained on her. I could kill her right here. I could rip her heart right out of her chest, and watch the life fade from her eyes and give her a farewell wave. My blood was boiling so hot I could feel my skin radiate steam off my body into the cold air of the forest.

She reached behind her and emerged a lighter. My vision stopped. No.

She quickly lit the lighter and before I could save them, she illuminated them up in flames. The only thing I had to myself went up in flames too far for me to save them.

I still couldn't help myself though. My vocal chords were no longer mine to control.
"No!" I yelped out, unable to tell if I had intentionally meant to or not.

Before I could say another word, Serena charged forward and knocked me backwards. My back scraped against the moss and dirt until I rolled to a stop at the end of the clearing. Rage was my co-fighter though, but I couldn't take her alone. I got up to my feet with the help of a tree and stood towards her to fight.

"I was planning to make you wish you were dead before I actually killed you, but I don't feel like being nice to night." Serena said confidently as she raced towards me again. I remembered Nahuel's words. I threw my memories in front of my subconscious.

She flitted straight ahead towards me, I tried to dodge to my left at the last moment; but she was apparently already in my head. I was too late. She grabbed me from the angle I had dodged, as though I had completely just walked right into it. She grabbed me by the neck and slammed me down against the ground again.

This time, it was able to get up. Pain echoed throughout my entire body, I wasn't sure if it was real or not, but I knew it hurt. Coldness ran through my body and blood rushed to the top of my throat. I coughed it out but by the time I had got it cleared out I was drowning again. My eyes shook and my vision faded. I looked down at my source of pain to see what had happened. It blurred and then focused but within the focused second I could see a large, strong stick, protruding just above my belly, underneath my rib cage. I leaned my head back and tried to pull the stick from my stomach so I could heal. I cried out wordlessly only to find that when I yanked on the piece of wood, it was connected behind me, and rooted into the ground. It had been pushed through my entire spine and had made its way through.

I panted and heard Serena's sinister laugh. "My dad may be angry with me for not letting him be the one to kill you." She said as she manicured her nails with a nail file. "But, he doesn't have to know I did it, I suppose." She smiled at me deviously and stood beside me silently looking at me.

I coughed and begged for air through the blood that flooded my lungs. I could feel the blood slip down my throat and gag me. I tried my best to move but I was paralyzed. She looked at me one final second before lunging down with all her strength, She crushed her hand through my rib cage, breaking every rib with her hand painfully, leaving me screaming out in agony.

"That's not it," she said smiling. Breaking another rib, I screamed again. I needed help, fast. But she said she was going to kill Nahuel... He was the last person I wanted. My later feeling of triumph over fear had vanished. I knew that I had to just die. It would all be over. Maybe once I was dead, they would not hunt Nahuel anymore. Maybe I was winning this way. Nahuel would be better off.

I stared into the dim lit sky away from Serena. I prepared for death. I knew I was going into yet another eternity of torturous hell. I was going to do what I did last time. Take in all my surroundings of beauty before I was pulled into hell.

She broke through a couple more ribs until she finally gripped my heart. I could feel her thumb grazing over the top of it. The pain was causing me to lose most of my advanced hearing but I could hear her last pun. My eyes absently rolled down to her face from the sky.

"Who knew? Big, bad, Renesmee, does have a heart. Too bad, I have to rip it out of you;" She smiled. But only for a moment. I watched a slight shock cross her face, before she turned her head around. Apparently at some sound before she stood up.

"Baby brother?" She asked to no one. "Is that you?" she taunted as she wandered to the end of the meadow.

"No," the stranger said. It was strangely familiar, but I couldn't do anything about it anyway. It was probably another vampire come, to response of my scent. I had a potent scent. A vampire once told me, "Just as your mother had..."

I tried to raise my head up, but pain, blood, and shock took my strength away too quickly. My head plopped back on its side so I could at least breathe. To my shock, I saw Serena fall back past me against the ground. Whoever it had been had frightened her. It was a vampire intended to fight her, and she knew they were much too strong for her own good. She looked at me, as if to contemplate taking me somewhere else, but then departed, with a promise in her eyes.

I tried my best to see who it was but my vision was nearly gone. Weakening even more. I couldn't even lift my head to see my next offender, I decided not to. If it was a vampire, they were gonna drain me anyways. I let my head fall back in surrender.

I could only hear the stranger take in a hand of air. As if the air was too much.

"Just." I coughed up. "Do it fast." I commanded them. I couldn't tell if the tree's ahead of my were pulling backwards into a dark abyss or if I was being pulled into hell away from them. I watched them more and more, drift into the darkness until I could no longer see anything.

The only thing I had left were my feelings. And shockingly, I couldn't feel the teeth of a vampire into my jugular. I felt cold hands at my waist, they pulled my up off the stick, wrapped their arms underneath my knee's. The ground underneath me was pulled away for a moment before I was sat somewhere else. The persons hands were big. A man, maybe?
