A/N: Again I want to thank all of my reviewers, especially blissfulmemories. All of the reviews are what keeps me going. This chapter explains some things about Bella, I hope everyone understands about her powers and if not don't be afraid to ask. This chapter was a struggle, I felt like there was just so much to say! I'll try to update soon. I'm also thinking of making a sequel or I could just make this story exra long. Let me know what you think.

BTW the link to the dress and shoes Alice makes Bella wear will be on my profile.


Last Chapter:"What should we do?"

"First off we need to stop this war, it won't end well and you know that."

"Yeah I know." He sighed and ran far off to change into a wolf and tell them to all stand down.


Chapter Fourteen

Rejuvenated

(EPOV)

The minute I left Bella's side I ran into Carlisle who was fighting a black werewolf. I pulled Carlisle to the side before the wolf could take another leap at him.

"Carlisle we have to stop this. Bella is alive…well…she's safe." He heard the hesitation in my voice and understood she was a vampire. How? He asked in his thoughts. "I don't know. We don't have time to figure this out now, just please stop everyone."

Carlisle sent out a low hissing sound. The wolves couldn't understand it, but he told everyone to stand down and back off. The minute the wolves realized we were standing down they thought victory was their's until I heard Jacob's message in Sam Uley's mind. Sam stop. I was the one who broke the treaty and I understand everything. They didn't turn Bella, some other coven did, the Volturi. She told me they'd forget about me breaking the treaty as long as we stood down and quit hurting them.

Sam quickly changed back into his human self as did the others.

"I don't understand him." A wolf said. "She's a leech. Like them. And he still wants to help her!" I hate those damn bloodsucking leeches. I can't believe Jake could love one of them. She's a vampire girl. I can't believe we trusted her. He was trembling at his thoughts. I wanted to growl at his thoughts of Bella, but I didn't because I knew it'd only cause more trouble.

"Paul, quit it!" Sam soothed him. "The Cullens didn't break the treaty, we did. And they agreed to let us slide." He loves her. I don't know why he does, but if Emily was Bella, would I hurt her like that? I would want her to be happy even if it meant she wanted one of them. I was surprised at the way Sam thought of Emily. He must have hated himself for what he did to her face.

"How do we know it's not a trick?" Those sly lying vampires, they're probably just waiting for us to turn our backs…I didn't want to hear his thoughts.

"Because I'm not that good at lying." Bella slyly answered. I turned to her. She was so breathtaking I heard every male—with a heart—hearts suddenly speed up. Every thought had something to do with Bella, even the men in my family. I didn't particularly enjoy it so I decided to block them out.

(BPOV)

I was disturbed with everyone's thoughts of me. Did I really change that much? I needed a mirror. I let out a low giggle as I read Edward's mind. I can't believe Emmett, Jasper, and Carlisle! I expected more from Carlisle. I know Bella is beautiful, no that's not the word for it. She's…well I know what she looks like, but did they have to be that lustful in their thinking!?

"Is something funny?" Sam asked me.

"Everyone's thoughts are!" I giggled again as everyone stared at me shocked. "I don't know what's going on with me so quit thinking of asking me!" I sighed. "Now please everyone quit fighting!"

"We already stopped." Embry said, a smile creeping up his mouth. Jake was standing silently beside me.

"Right." I giggled out again.

"Carlisle we should talk." Sam stated calmly, slightly embarrassed that he had attacked him only a few moments earlier. With that they left. I looked at everyone and no one was hurt badly. There were cuts all over everyone, but nothing that looked too harsh.

"You can hear thoughts?" Edward asked shocked as he embraced me. Jacob's thoughts weren't too kind so I tuned him out.

"Yes." Hmm…how can she hear them? How much power is she going to have? Aro will have a field day once he finds out about what she did to his precious Jane and Alec. Can she hear my mind?

I giggled out loud and whispered in his hear, "Yes dear, I can hear your thoughts." He began to frown. It's unfair that you can hear my thoughts while I can't hear yours at all. Someone cleared their throat and I saw Jacob standing in front of Edward.

"I want to apologize. I shouldn't have broken the treaty regardless of how uncivilized you were behaving."

"Jake—" I started, but Edward cut me off.

"I am very sorry for the way I treated you, Jacob Black. I really thought Bella wasn't coming back and I blamed you. I'm terribly sorry; I should have remained more civilized. I shouldn't have come here at all." Sincerity rang with every word.

"I hate to interrupt your moment," Rosalie snarled, "but I need to get cleaned up. For some reason, I was attacked!" She was still furious. It made me angry to no end. I would have to explain everything about me leaving and Edward would have to explain the war he started while I was away. I almost got dizzy thinking of all the things yet to be discussed. I was glad that I had an eternity to waste so none of that really mattered. A grin spread across my face. It never gets easier you know! I hate not knowing what's going on it your head! I giggled again as Edward tried to decipher the reasons behind my facial expressions.

She looks so happy with him. I'll have to accept that she'll never love me. Jacob's thoughts were painful. I went to hug him goodbye.

"Hey, I'll talk to you soon, kid." I said playfully as I stood on my tip toes to ruffle his hair. It got him to give his Jacob-one-of-a-kind smile.

"If you do all the calculations I'm still older than you, remember?" He laughed.

I looked up at him then. I didn't want our friendship to end, but maybe there was no other way. The other wolves were gone as well as all of the Cullens. Edward was waiting a distance away—giving me my privacy with Jake also showing he finally trusted me to be alone with him.

"You promise, you'll write or call?" Jacob asked solemnly.

"Write? Call? I'm talking face to face here buddy, if the treaty doesn't keep me from sneaking in your window." I giggled. He let out a low laugh too.

"You know just as much as I do that—we can't" I placed my finger to his lips even though he finished in his thoughts we can't be friends anymore Bella, it's too dangerous.

"I'll sneak in if I have too." I hugged him gently and he pulled me harder to his chest. Slow tears were rolling out of his eyes. I smiled at him before turning and walking away. I could hear him running off into the distance. Sadness panged through my whole body as I realized that would be the last time I actually saw Jacob Black.

We had made it back to the Cullen mansion in record time—with my driving—and Rosalie finally stopped complaining after her shower.

I quickly made my way up Edward's stairs.

"Do you think I could take a shower first?" I asked him, pleading with my eyes.

"Not at all, dear. I'll get Alice to get you some clothes." I smiled up at him and he took my face and kissed me tenderly. "Don't ever leave me again Bella. I don't care what visions Alice gets or what you think." He said with authority and sadness in his voice. I had almost forgotten that I left him and I felt bad for it.

"Edward—I didn't want to—I'm sorry. I won't ever again." I promised. He kissed me again and left me so I could take a shower.

I turned the heat dial all the way to the left and I could barely feel the warmth. The dirt was quickly falling out of my hair and off of my legs. The soreness from my bites was warring off. The places my skin had been torn were healed and the water seemed to smooth out the replaced skin. I smelt their shampoo and it was stronger than before. I took in that smell and put it into my memory. I stepped out of the shower and wrapped myself into a lavender towel. I stepped into Edward's room and he wasn't in here. Always the gentlemen I thought to myself. I looked on the bed and I saw a cute dress. To my dismay I also saw heels, but being a vampire, they couldn't hurt me anymore, right? The dress was a tan color with blue flowers all over it. It was scrunched right above my bust line and it flared out right below my knees, where it then looked tucked under. The heels matched the blue flowers. They were open toed with a black bow.

I went down the stairs to see everyone already dressed and showered waiting on me. I must have spent more time in the shower than I thought. Edward's breath caught when he saw me. I smiled at the fact that I could do that to him. Carlisle was back now sitting with Esme on a sofa with Emmett and Rose right next to them, Alice and Jasper were sitting across from them and Edward pulled me into his lap, a chair between the others.

"First of all, the treaty is almost as same as the other one, the only difference is Bella will be allowed on La Push as long as she comes alone." I smiled at that sentence. "Jacob Black suggested that stipulation." Carlisle smiled at me and I could visibly hear Edward frown at the thought of me going into werewolf territory with no one to save me.

"Bella what happened?" It was time for the question and answers now. I sighed. This wasn't going to be fun. I told them everything. I told them the exact details of my dream, of how I thought it was real, of how I went to Volterra. I told them what Aro said, of my fast change Marcus did. I told them about the plane ride home. I told them about knowing that Edward provoked Jake when I pulled into their drive way. I told them about Jane and Alec hunting me. I told them everything that went through my mind, when I miraculously stopped time and apparently how I managed to make Jane and Alec burst into flames. I then told them about the long conversation with Jake and how I could hear his thoughts.

"What do you think Carlisle? Why could I do all of that!?" His mind was running wild with excitement at my words.

"Bella, I think you managed to do that to Jane and Alec because of your love for Edward. I think you can transmit all of your emotions and turn it into some sort of an energy that can destroy anything. I've heard of this before, but I never thought I'd see it in front of me. It's a power that is very hard to obtain, the power of true love. You thought Edward would die and at that moment, you took over the situation and you used the one thing you did as a human—showed all of your emotions—and you turned it into a power so strong it destroyed them." Carlisle was talking calmly but I could feel excitement rolling off of him. Was I obtaining Jasper's power as well?

"Carlisle, you're way too excited."

"How do you know that?"

"I can feel it coming off of you in waves."

"Can you feel what I'm feeling?" Alice asked me curiously.

"You're anxious and a little excited."

"How do you know?"

"Now you're confused. I'm just focusing in on you and I can feel it, somehow, it's hard to explain…"

"You're obtaining everyone else's power!" Carlisle exclaimed.

"How!?" I asked doubtful.

"Hey Bella what am I feeling?" Emmett asked playfully. I tuned into him. I could hear his thoughts. Rosalie and I are going to have so much fun when this dumb meeting is over. I remember the fun we had on Edward's piano. Then I saw Rosalie in lingerie on Edward's beautiful piano.I tuned out of his head and lust was clearly rolling off of him.

"EMMETT QUIT IT! PLEASE!" I yelled at him.

"What?" He asked.

"I did not need to see you and Rose…and can the lustfulness wait until I go home?" He giggled nervously as Jasper shot me a thankful glance for getting Emmett to quit being so lustful.

"That could be your main power."

"Obtaining everyone else's power is my main power!? When did I ever do that in my human life?"

"It must have to do with the way you were changed. No one has successfully been turned that way, Bella." Esme spoke quietly. I could feel her fear cascade towards me.

"Esme, there's no need to be scared." I said reassuringly as I sent a wave of comfort towards her.

"Thank you dear." she smiled.

We were all silent for a moment and I didn't want to hear anyone's thoughts. My own were buzzing through my head. What about Charlie? Would Edward and I get married for real now? What about school? Will I finish it up? What about the humans!? Would it be hard for me to not see Angela as a hot dog? I laughed at that analogy and everyone turned to look at me.

"What are we going to do about Charlie and school and resisting temptation?" I finally asked.

"We'll help you with resisting the temptation and we'll wait until you can do it before you see Charlie or go back to school. Bella you have to know that you won't have much time left with Charlie or Renée. When the school year's over I think you should probably leave. I'm unsure on if you can go back to see them…" Before he could continue images were flashing in front of me. I could see Alice buying something at an eye examining place. They were a box of brown colored contacts. The image flashed and I saw Charlie smiling at me as he walked me down the aisle. I had brown eyes. Then Edward and I finally said 'I do'. I was brought back to reality then. Jasper was holding Alice as she came back to reality as well and everyone was staring at me.

Alice was beaming about the wedding part in it all.

"I guess I've got Alice's gift as well." I sighed.
