Disclamer:
Twilight belongs to Stephenie Meyer, who I am not. If i was, things
may have been a little different the first time round...
LOL
Thank-you guys for adding me to story alert! I really am
excited to see that!
But the next chapter I'm gonna dedicate to
Lil H, because she's the inspiration for my interpretation of
Jane!
Thankyou for reading!!!!
Xoxo B.
Chapter 3.
"Well,
well, well...." The snide voice came from the smallest, darkest
cape. She pulled the hood back to reveal a head of sleek light brown
hair and angelic features that were all too familiar.
"Hello
Jane, Alec" Carlisle nodded, smiling politely. "For what do we
owe this pleasure?"
"You must be Carlisle! Oh we have herd
sooo much about you. Aro hoped that we would get far enough south to
send his warmest regards" She smiled angelically, but I knew how
sadistic she was... my find fluttered back to Volterra.
"If you
don't mind me asking, what happened with the newborns? They left
quite a trail of destruction in Seattle". Jane said, quickly
getting down to business.
"We formed an alliance with the
Quileute wolves here, to destroy the newborns". Edward said
harshly
"Hello there Edward" she smiled
"How many of
them was there?" Alec chimed in quietly, but
authoritatively.
"Nineteen, not including their creator who
sadly got away" Carlisle started, seeing Edward pinch his nose
again.
"Was he the only one who got away? Did you get them all?"
she said critically.
"Yes we got them all, thank-you very much.
And he was a she..." Rosalie said with her usual intimidating
manner.
"Oh, sorry. Who was she? Do you know what she was doing
with the newborns?" Jane said, feigning interest.
"Her name
was Victoria, and she held a grudge against Bella" Edward stepped
in.
"A grudge against Bella? Why?" This seemed a little
unfathomable to Jane. Though if I didn't find Victoria to be
completely frightening and deranged, I might have agreed with
her.
"Her mate James tried to hunt Bella and I killed James.
Victoria sees killing Bella as levelling the score, an eye for an
eye..." Edward trailed off.
"I see. Well, you do seem to
bring out strange reactions in our kind"
Edward seemed a little
offended by this.
"And what happened with the creator? How did
you let her get away?" Jane asked, politely, despite the accusation
she had implied.
"Edward fought Victoria and she fled after she
sensed she was losing. Jacob and Sam followed her to the water and
then they lost her." Carlisle summarised.
"If you were here a
little earlier, you could have done your job like you are supposed to
and helped us." Rosalie remarked, directly at Jane.
"Oh I'm
sorry Blondie? Do you like blonde jokes?" She smiled evilly. "I've
got one for you anyway" she said seeing the look of distaste on
Rosalie's face.
"Alright Blondie, What
would you do if a Blond threw a hand grenade right at you?" She
smiled angelically, yet evilly. Rosalie glared at her. If Rosalie had
ever glared at me that way
"
You'd pull the pin and throw it back." Rosalie
looked like she was going to strangle her. Emmett wrapped his
humongous arms around her, through I couldn't figure out whether it
was to comfort her or restrain her...
But
then she changed her attention to me.
"My, my Edward, we have
been naughty haven't we?" she gestured towards me.
"Why
would that be Jane?" Edward asked.
"Because, if you remember
back to our conversation in Volterra. You promised to make little
Bella here, immortal". She looked harsh now, instead of angelic.
"The date is set, we were merely waiting for the sake remaining
inconspicuous" Alice piped up.
But instead of reassuring Jane,
that we fully intended on me becoming a Vampire. Jake immediately
started howling and Sam menacingly started to walk towards Jane. Her
formidable gift was unknown to them.
"No!" I shouted, But
Edward and Alice had trapped me by my arms with their immense
strength.
Jane smirked and then suddenly, Sam was writhering on
the floor in pain. Alice and Edward pulled at my arms, turning me to
face away and Alice was reaching up to cover my eyes and ears. When
Jane had stopped, they let go, but only for long enough that I turned
to see Jake bounding over to Sam and then turned to Jane, growling
fiercely.
I cringed, waiting for Jacob to shrink to the floor in
pain, just like Sam, but he didn't. And Jane looked furious.
"Jane?" Alec looked worried. They both tried to concentrate,
but it wasn't working, neither of the "Witch Twins" could hurt
him.
"Demetri- get him!" Jane shouted. And then Demetri
lunged a Jake.
"No!!!" I shouted, running forward, but Demetri
collided with Jake before I took even the first step. The sound was
immensely loud. Alice had me restrained again, as Emmett and Jasper
interviened with Demetri but it was too late. Demetri was missing an
arm, and Jake lay with a heaving chest in the snow. To my utter
horror, the white snow was streaked with red. I looked over at Esme,
who looked distraught too....
"My apologies, I only meant for
Demetri to restrain the Dog"
Jane painted a look of sorrow on her fine features.
"Why don't
you tell me what the purpose of your little guard dogs are?" she
continued, sorrowful look gone.
"Sam, the black wolf is offended
by your suggestion. They are here as an alliance, not as slavery."
Edward translated, as Sam could not speak for himself, though his
bared teeth kind suggested that Edward had edited though.
"How
fascinating. It looks like our job is done. Come now." She looked
very bored. Jane turned back to the North and her following mirrored
her. She paused, turning to face me directly.
"We will be back
soon, to check Bella, you are a liability that we will not tolerate.
Become one of us, or .. Well...." She smirked angelically. It was a
threat, and we both knew it.
I was a liability, a human who knew
entirely too much.
Alice released her grip on my arms. I was
going to have bruises tomorrow, but I didn't care, I rushed towards
Jacob, crouching down on the snow putting my hand over his heart,
next to Carlisle Who was assessing Jake. He was in good hands, but he
was a wreck...
It was all getting to be a little much.
As
they secured Jake and took him back to the Cullens, everyone got
along. There was no Edward the Vampire and Jacob the Werewolf. Billy
was called and he waited for Charlie to leave, and then Emily drove
him up. It was a big step for Billy, to put aside a grudge that he
had been ingrained in him since his birth. But he was a strong man,
he loved Jake and hated seeing his son like that. Never once did he
demand to take Jake home. He just sat and watched while Carlisle
x-rayed Jake and fit braces to his broken bones.
It was hard for
me to watch. I wasn't kept near Jake, Alice took me up into her
room.
"Bella," she started. "I called Charlie and I told
him that my family stayed out camping for longer, and he agreed to
let you stay for a couple more nights. I couldn't let you go home
with all those scratches on your face and you need to have your wrist
checked again. I think you may have re-broken it in the forest."
I
sighed. I was so tired. The bed was very comfortable and my last
night's sleep was a very uncomfortable one. I was not sure that I
could go camping again, anytime soon, let alone in a snowstorm.
"Good Night Bella, sleep tight"
And with that, I
immediately fell asleep. For the first time in a very long time, I
slept without nightmares, lord forbid, I was just too tired to dream
tonight.
Thankyou for reading. Thank me by
reviewing! Xoxo
PS. I'm so sorry for hurting Jake! But in the
grand scheme of things, it had to happen. Next chapter sees The Pack
and The Cullens under the same roof. Also, There will be a vote, hint
hint......
