A/N: Thanks so much for your review, xxpiratesxx! You rock! Can't wait to read your story
Sorry that I made stuff unclear... ok, I'll be happy to explain (thanks for pointing that out, I really appreciate it )
Making Stuff Less Unclear: (totally all my fault, by the way. I'm so sorry!! tear tear)
Ok, in The End of Another Day, there was a short section about Diendre. He was the guy who collected vampires to track down Edward and his family.. for being "filthy animal drinkers". I made that one up, lol. And Vincent only said that he loved Bella in order to make everything seem more feasible. Like, it made sense why he would warn Bella about Victoria. Victoria is dead. Vincent only said that she was alive only to make Edward call his family for help and then eventually lure in Bella and Edward to the Cullens' home, to kill them. Vincent is like the kind of guy who catches vampires for other vampires. And for this time, it was for Diendre.
That's so sweet and nice of you to have bookmarked me!! I feel so special!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
When are you going to write a sequel to Lost Memories? I loved it! Please write a sequel when you're done with Flirting with Death.
Tragedy
"Diendre?"
I whispered the name in fear, immediately remembering how Edward had explained to me that Diendre was a leader of a vampire group that had been after the Cullens for awhile. Their sole mission was to wipe out all "filthy animal drinkers" who defied their traditional way of the vampire lifestyle. Diendre's hair was gray with a tint of brown lining some of it. His eyes were blazing burgundy, not like mine that was slowly becoming topaz as I resisted human blood. His features were savage looking, not at all like Vincent's mocking politeness. Diendre's throaty voice was directed towards Edward as he taunted,
"You got yourself a mate, I see."
Edward slowly got up from his position of sitting down and clenched his jaws together. I ran towards him, my hands touching his arm, which was tense and strong as steel. Diendre barked out a laugh,
"Got lonely from living off your worthless shell of life, eh, Cullen? Life got boring for you?"
Edward did not answer. I could hear his teeth collide against eachother, his whole body tensed up with anger. Diendre's face became dangerous as he raised up his palms toward us. I saw a pool of black swirling around at the end of his palm. Analyzing the situation, I put up a force field around us before the jet stream of black could knock us down. I saw Diendre's mouth moving in fury, barking out orders to the vampires around him. However, I could not hear any sound. The force field must be soundproof. Well, of course. Edward couldn't hear my thoughts. This is perfect. I glanced at Edward and whispered,
"Edward? Are you ok? They can't hear us as long as I put up this force field."
His looks lifted as he looked down upon me. His eyes serious, he murmured,
"Bella, I can hear his thoughts. He wants to kill both of us."
I couldn't help but roll my eyes, regardless of the grave danger we were in. I quipped,
"Well, of course, Edward. He calls us filthy animal drinkers. What did you think he would do?"
Edward ignored this and continued,
"I can hear his plans going over in his head. Being as dumb as he is, he is going to just sit there until you become too tired to put up the force field and then he'll jump on us."
I bit my lips and whispered,
"Edward, I am sort of getting a bit weary."
He nodded understandingly. It was hard work to put up a faint blue bubble around us. Edward murmured,
"I have a plan. Try to act weary and put down the force field--"
"WHAT?"
"Bella, please listen. This is the only way. Then Diendre will jump on us, with the other five vampires behind him. Right after he enters our territory, put up the largest force field you can and block out the other five. I'll take care of Diendre from there."
My eyebrows knitted together.
"Edward, I don't know. It sounds risky."
His topaz eyes glimmered and he smiled,
"Trust me."
I sighed.
"Fine."
I made my force field weaken a little bit, gaining the attention of Diendre quickly. I could hear the sounds coming from outside our bubble. I groaned,
"Edward, I can't out up the field anymore...I'm sorry..."
I completely let the force field disappear. Diendre flicked up a finger as quick as lightning, making sure the others will follow behind his back. He lunged at Edward, the other five running as well. My brain pounding, I outstretched my arms and quickly put up a force field. The other five, excited in the lunging, fell on the ground with heavy thuds, shaking their heads in a confused manner. I whipped around my head to see Diendre and Edward roll around in a fight, each clawing at eachother and trying to bite eachother's flesh out. I whimpered,
"Edward, please... please... please... win, please. Edward. I love you, Edward. Please..."
The fight wore on, and my dead heart ached, wanting to lunge at Diendre and rip his lungs out. However, the other five were trying to rip through my force field, wanting to go help their leader. I sighed and helplessly watched Edward's fight.
Diendre was digging his claws into Edward's throat, and I could hear him breathe upon Edward's face,
"All animal drinkers will die like this. It's too bad you won't see your family members get killed, one by one."
I started to breathe erratically as I watched Edward's eyes grow in sheer anger. Edward tried to kick at Diendre, but he was locked down firmly. I sobbed tearlessly, drawing forth Edward's sad gaze upon me. I shook my head and whispered,
"Edward, don't leave me. Please, don't leave me. Edward... Edward..."
Edward let out pained gasps as Diendre dug in his filthy nails further down on Edward's flesh. Diendre raised one club of a hand and reached down to claw Edward's face, getting ready to rip him apart, one by one. As Diendre's outstretched hand was midway through the air, I screamed,
"No!"
I ran as fast as I had ever run and was in front of Edward in a flash. My body trembled as I spread out my fists to create a force field. However, only sparks of blue erupted out of my fists, and nothing came. I raised my head up to face Diendre, my face painted in horror.
