BPOV
I managed to sneak in one anxious wave goodbye to Edward when Carlisle slammed the door shut. If my heart were pumping blood throughout my body, I knew that it would be pumped at the speed of light. There more no denying it; I was nervous. Being around Edward was one of the only things that calmed me. Now that we were separated, all of the fears I had of hunting returned. I hadn't even realized that we were in a car until we had come to a sudden stop that jerked me forward. Why hadn't we just run there? I assumed it was because my skills of hiding emotions, was pitiful. My assumption was confirmed when Carlisle began to speak.
"Listen Bella, I know that regardless of what anyone says that you're going to remain nervous, but you really ought to try trusting me. It will relax you. I promise that you won't be feeling anxious when you are in that setting."
His mind was saying the same thing.
I wish I had brought Jasper along. Her nervous emotions wouldn't cloud her proper thinking.
I took a few deep breaths. I had to calm down.
"Is anyone else coming?" I asked.
Carlisle cracked a smile. "Emmett will meet us there. He said he wouldn't miss this for the world. I think Alice and Rosalie are going to catch up with us later."
I smiled.
"Emmett…that boy is unbelievable," I muttered with the faintest hint of humor on my face.
Carlisle laughed. "Yes, Emmett is many things, and 'unbelievable' in definitely one of them."
Carlisle and I broke out into a fit of laughter. I forgot my fears. The laughing seemed to have wiped my memory of my previous thoughts. And for that, I was grateful.
Carlisle's phone rang. He took the shiny little phone out of his pocket and smiled to himself.
"Speaking of unbelievable…" he muttered. He threw me a smile. I was beyond confused until Carlisle identified the person on the other end of the phone.
"Yes Edward? No, Bella is absolutely fine. We are making fun of your brother. Yes, he is meeting us there, but don't worry, I will keep him in check." He nodded a few more times, then handed the phone to me.
"Hello?"
"Hello Bella, I was just calling to check up on you. You don't exactly hide your emotions very well." His laugh made me smile. I heard some crunching on his end of the line.
"Edward, what is that crunching noise?"
"It's cereal."
"You're eating cereal?! I thought you hated my food?"
"Well, your human instincts caused me to get hungry. I fought against my desire to cook something up and settled for some cereal."
"Uh..ok." I was shocked. "Well do you..uhh..like it?"
He laughed. "Well, these are your taste buds. And apparently you like cereal, so that means that I do as well."
I laughed. "Ok, well I think we have arrived. I'll see you tonight."
"I love you Bella. I wish so badly that I was there with you. But I'll make sure I'm there with you when you go through the experience in your own body. I promise."
"I love you too Edward. I'll see you tonight."
And with that the line went dead.
The car was at a stop at the entrance of a wall of green.
"Are you ready?" Carlisle asked.
I attempted to shoot him a smile. "As ready as I'll ever be I suppose. Let's just get this over with."
We got out of the car and ran a few miles into the forest. I would never get over how good it felt to run like this. It felt as if I was running so fast that my fears couldn't catch up with me…until I stopped running.
We finally stopped at a little clearing.
"Now listen Bella, when you see the animal, you're going to be able to smell its blood. Just as you smelled Edward's earlier."
I shivered.
"Automatically, as you found out, you will react to the scent at an extremely rapid speed. Except this time, your mind will not be telling you to stop because you do not have an emotional attachment to this particular creature."
I nodded a little.
"Bella, you barely have to do anything. You're vampire instincts will take over as soon as you react to the scent."
I heard a rustle in the bushes next to me. I closed my eyes dreading this. I felt a little faint. I wasn't ready to do this. Was I thinking too much? I felt nauseous.
Just then, Emmett jumped out of the bushes"
Emmet was laughing frantically. He was clutching his stomach.
"Oh my god, Bella!" he said between breaths, "Your face!" he was still laughing. "Your face was priceless!"
He had pushed me too far. I walked right over to him and punched him in the arm.
"OUCH! DAMNIT! Bella! You have GOT to stop doing that!"
Now it was Carlisle and my turn to laugh.
Just then we heard another rustle in the bushes. Out jumped a deer. Before I could even process the thought, the scent of its blood entered my nostrils. The deer began running, and so did I. My brain felt muddled. It was clouded with only one thing; the blood. All I couldn't think of was quenching this thirst raging inside of my body. The deer swerved left, and I could do nothing but follow. My body yearned for this. I could feel my face getting hotter. My body was on fire. I hadn't done this before, but I knew the only thing that would cool it was the blood of that deer. I stopped running, crouched, and jumped. The next thing I knew, I was on top of the deer. Nothing could stop me. I felt selfish. I didn't care what the cost. I needed its blood in my system to survive. I couldn't remember where I had been in the previous moments before this, and I didn't care. My mouth opened involuntarily, and I was vitally aware of my new venom coated teeth. I bent my head, and struck the deer. I felt the heat in my body recede. It started in my mouth and went to every place in my body. I wanted to shiver, but I couldn't move. I felt relieved. The physical pain that I was, for the most part, unaware of, was now so much less. I was…soothed. But could I be? I finally lifted my head, looking around. I closed my eyes, feeling the rush seep out of me as my breath left my body. I opened my eyes, feeling more calm; more…in control.
I turned around to find Carlisle, Alice and Rosalie leaning against a tree many feet away smiling. Across from them was Emmett, staring open mouthed at me.
Rosalie gave me an appreciative nod. Alice was the first to speak.
"I knew you would rock this!"
"Yes Bella," Carlisle said, "that was very well done."
Emmett was still staring at me.
"But…how? She's never…that was…she….leapt…that…AMAZINGGG!"
Rosalie walked over to him smiling a wicked grin. "Yes Emmett, compared to you, everyone is amazing.
We all laughed.
It fell silent. I assumed they were waiting for me to speak.
"That felt…so good. It soothed me. I feel so much more in control of myself!"
"I told you Bella," Carlisle began. "You had nothing to be worried about. Did you even feel like yourself?"
I thought back. It felt almost surreal.
"No actually…It feels like I was a bystander…"
"We have to tell Edward!" Alice interjected. "He will be so shocked!" She turned to me. "He hasn't stopped calling me, asking me about your future. I was starting to feel regret that you didn't kill him earlier. How ironic is it that they were so alike?!"
I shot her a confused look. "Alike?"
"How exactly are we alike Alice?
Rosalie had finally stepped forward.
"You know that Edward is often referred to as a mountain lion when he hunts? Now, even thought you are in Edward's body, your hunting techniques are different, but similar as well. We have decided that you are in between a tiger and…I know Edward won't be particularly happy about this…but we have also classified your hunting techniques similar to a…wolf. You were just as graceful as Edward, but had a rough yearning to it. It was extremely entertaining to watch. Almost as good as me…" She cracked a smile.
"So I'm like a tiger…and a wolf?"
"I guess so!" Alice yelled.
Carlisle interrupted. "Now Bella, if you are done, we should get going. Edward is just about going crazy."
"Yes," Alice said. "And I am not up to dealing with him in one of his infamous moods." She scowled.
I smiled.
"Yes, I think I'm finished."
Alice, Emmett and Rosalie ran back home, but Carlisle and I drove the car back to my house.
I kept replaying the experience in my head. It felt like a movie. The more I replayed the image, the more I couldn't believe it was I who had conjured the image in the first place. It was…I smiled as I thought the word…unbelievable. I was too anxious to tell Edward. I couldn't wait. I wanted to explain every detail. It was almost as if, it couldn't be real until I had spoken the words aloud.
The rest of the car ride was silent.
After what felt like no time at all, due o my replying the move in my head, we reached my house. I ran out of the car and burst through the door to find Edward sitting on the kitchen chair.
"Tell me everything."
