Alright, so I was too impatient to wait any longer to post this. I really have a problem with being patient. Anyway, I need you all to do something for me. Any sort of creature you think should be incorporated in the story I will need to know about. I would appreciate it greatly since I need it to write something like . . . well I don't know, a sequel? So, give me ideas, and I will be happy. Also, I would love reviews. I hope you will enjoy this chapter. It's a good one.
When we reached the clearing Dodge came over to talk to me. "Now," he started, "You're still weak from you last display, so don't strain yourself. I'll have some of my men stay close to you so you don't feel the need to really work yourself. The same thing will go for all the others. The rest of the group will spread out and take care of any red goblins they can get their hands on. You and your friends are going to have to finish off the vampire, though, we'll be too busy keeping the red goblins off of you."
"You know you don't have to do all of this for us," I told him.
"Ah, but we do. You see, you're special. The kind of special that makes you more important than you can realize. At least for the moment. Just keep yourself safe, don't worry about anyone else, they can take care of themselves. And be ready, he's going to be here any moment now," Dodge finished.
"Thank you, once again," I told him.
"It's my duty, and I am glad that it is," he smiled at me, but then our attention was directed elsewhere, at the woods that we couldn't quite see the things coming yet. This was going to get interesting.
Before James arrived, Edward made his way over to me. "Bella," he whispered to me, "Whatever you do, don't try and kill him, just try and keep yourself alive. I know you're strong and you're fast and you can see the way he moves, but he doesn't bleed, and you do. I don't want to loose you." He was stroking my face as he said this to me. Looking directly in my eyes.
"The same goes for you, you know. Whatever happens, keep yourself safe. Keep yourself alive. Because if one of us dies, the other does, too. And I think we both would like to live a bit longer than just up to today, I think we have a lot of living to do, we have a lot to acompish," I told him, staring right back at him.
Edward leaned down and pressed his lips softly to mine. It almost instantly turned into a more frenzied kiss.
"Eww! Get a room!" Emmett yelled across the field. I proceeded to stick my tounge out at him.
"Be safe," Edward said.
"I will. You stay safe," I responded.
"I will." He pressed a soft kiss on the top of my head and hurried back to his post. I sighed this was going to be a big fight.
I stood their my stomach tying it'self into knots of terror. I was frighted for Edward, not myself, for Edward. I know that sounds strange but when you're facing a threat, you'd rather yourself be hurt than the one that you loved. That was your soul mate, you're other half.
I shifted from foot to foot, worring. And then it happened. Then the battle started. It wasn't a big entrence it was simple. He just walked out of the woods.
All of us were ready. I stood there, surrounded by a ring of green goblins. He seemed surprised to see me standing there, eyes shooting daggers at him. Behind him, half of the amount of goblins we had taken out earlier stood behind him. He looked at the Cullen's and the green goblins as if they were just a small thorn in his side, nothing much. It wouldn't give him any sort of problem what-so-ever. His eyes connected with mine, and he smiled in a slimy way. I did my very best to look completely terrified of him.
"I'm surprised you brought your little pet with you, I thought that you might put her somewhere else, out of harms way. Instead you put her right here, where I can take her," James said to everyone in the field. The red goblins behind him cackled when he said this.
"We just figured that if she was here, we could keep an eye on you, after all, you would have left to go search for her," Edward sneered.
"You're right. But neither option is really a good one, don't you think so? And look, you're not protecting her, only a few measly goblins around her, my, my, my, you're really making this too easy. I thought that I might have a challenge this time," James shook his head. Looking down he flicked his wrist and the red goblins charged the two colors hit and they went ripping and tearing at each other. Red goblins dropping like fly's, though occasionally a green goblin would drop, and my heart would conflict with pain. They were good creatures, and they didn't deserve this slaughter, I was getting angry, I wanted to get my claws on some of them.
Red goblins were breaking through and coming at the Cullen's, the green goblins there, just aided them, while they worked on James. They circled him, paying no attention to the goblins fighting around them. My protectors were going at it valiantly, not a single scratch on them. I called encouragement to the entire battle field, my voice ringing out under the sounds of a small war taking place in this little clearing. The Cullen's kept barely missing James, he was making his way over to me. When he was close enough to me, the red goblins swarmed the Cullen's forcing them to pay attention to the goblins, and not to protecting me. They knew that I could take care of myself well enough. If I absolutely needed to I would be able to fly into the sky where he couldn't reach me. Though with my low energy level I might just drop out of the sky like a dying bird, which would be exactly what I was.
James stared into my eyes, "Look at that, none of your family is paying attention to you, not helping you. Leaving you defenseless in my hands."
My protectors didn't pay any attention to James, they kept on fighting of the red goblins, figuring that if they needed to step in, they would. But until then I could handle myself.
"You really think that I'm defenseless don't you?" I arched an eyebrow looking him straight in the eye. I was fighting the instinct to release my claws and rip him to shreds.
"Oh, I know you are, you see, you're only human. I'm faster, stronger, and so much more powerful than you," he hissed still circling me like I was his prey. Well, that was exactly what I was.
"My goodness, you are really deluding yourself aren't you?" I shook my head, "This is going to be much more interesting than I thought it would be."
"You know, you have the most mouthwatering scent, I have never even found anything close to that. It makes you all the more perfect for my prey."
I laughed, "I would guess that you would." I smiled mysteriously, "I am truly one of a kind."
"You know, being left here alone, mmm, well they just don't care about you," He said.
"You're repeating yourself," I pointed out, "And you forgot another reason why they might be leaving me alone, maybe it's because I can handle myself in battle."
"We'll see about that!" James lunged at me, and I stepped to the side, he missed me by a great deal.
He growled at me, "How can you do that?" He wondered out loud.
"I have really good eyes," I told him with a dismissive shrug.
He started walking around me, like he was looking for a week spot, which I assumed was exactly what he was doing. Unfortunately for him, I didn't really have any week spots, every spot was about equally protected. The only way that he could really truly hurt me was if he started to get deep cuts in my skin, I still had blood, so I could bleed out. Which would not be fun for me. I had to stay alive, not only for me, but for Edward as well.
James pounced, I ducked. I rammed head first into a tree. The tree fell over. I started laughing hard.
When he came back he was growling even more viciously, "I can see why they aren't here. But I don't see how you can protect yourself completely."
I just smiled, "Oh, just you watch me."
James threw a punch at me and I side stepped, he tried to grab me but a twirled away. I was proud of myself. I wasn't even using my claws. I was having a good time, I knew he wouldn't get tired, but if I could keep him at bay long enough, the Cullen's would be able to finish him off.
Next, James went for my neck. I jumped away and out came my claws, I was getting tired of the human charged, I wanted to get my claws in him.
James eyes brows raised in surprise, "So that's why they aren't over here. So the rumor is true. A pixie has returned, and that will make my kill all the more impressive, getting rid of the only pixie there had been in over a thousand years."
"Woah, I knew I was special, but a thousand years! Geeze, this is huge," said James charged at me and I swiped my claws at him, narrowly missing him. James lunged again, this time his fingers grazed my thigh and my claws grazed his arm. The only difference between that was that I had made a huge indent in his arm - which would last forever - but he had made an open wound, and I could bleed. And now I was.
"I see you're not completely indestructible, you still bleed like a pitiful human," he laughed and we were at it again.
He was a blur, moving as fast as he could, I deflected his blows, using my claws, we were moving faster and faster and faster. Then he got a good one in just by a stroke of luck. He sliced my stomach, and blood flowed forth. He laughed, my claws were gone and I was defenseless. My guards were eliminated, and I was there, at his mercy. He bent my wrist back, using more force than he thought he would need, and it snapped, I cried out in pain.
"You're not as indestructible as your family seems to think," James sneered into my ear. My wrist throbbed.
I heard Edward cry out in pain, unable to come to me, trapped by the goblins, obligated to stay alive, it he even wanted a chance for me to survive.
James snapped a bone in my leg, I heard it crack, and I screamed. He laughed. Enjoying the sound of the pain I was feeling. "Now I've got you all to myself. This isn't exactly how I wanted to do this, but your blood just smells so delicious." He bent down and bit my wrist, drawing blood. Unlike the way that Edward's bite made me feel this one made me feel as if I was being violated, stripped of all my dignity. Raped, in a way.
Suddenly, his was gone, the pain and violation that was still coursing through my body made me numb to all feelings. I saw something moving in a blur, a black shadow, growling maliciously. I heard him speaking to James, I heard him. I knew him, but I didn't know where I knew him from.
"You dare to hurt her, to try and kill her. Do you even know who she is?" He asked in a deep voice slamming James head against the ground, I herd a crack that must have been from James skull.
"Did you know that if you even got near her, if you had even just thought about this, that you would die? The only reason I didn't rip your sorry ass apart, was because I had to travel halfway across the world to get to you. You are an abomination, something that should have been exterminated long ago, and I promise this will not be fun for you, but it will be for me," the shadow said, picking James up and carrying him into the woods where I could hear Jame's screams coming from.
When the screaming stopped the shadow came back and looked at me. "I'm so sorry I couldn't get here earlier, I was coming as fast as I could," the shadow said. I was confused, I didn't know him, really, I had never met him. Or had I? It wasn't something I could process while I still felt this way. I heard the fighting stop, and I smelt smoke in the air, the green goblins must have been burning the red ones. Edward raced over to me, shoving the shadow away.
"Bella," he said to me, "Bella, are you okay?" He looked at me with more worry and love than I though any person ever could.
Dodge came running over, "You have to bite her Edward, Jame's bite is causing her pain, to get rid of it, you have to bite her. She's been the equivalent of well, something quite terrible, she's in agony. Bite her and you'll end it."
Edward placed a soft kiss on my neck, "You'll be okay, my love." Then he bit me, and I felt such relief, it wasn't something that you could describe using words. All the pain was washed away, even the pain of my bleeding stomach, and the breaks in my wrist, and in my leg. I saw Carlisle running over. He was bringing the things that he needed to fix me up, but I was awake, aware of things, and no longer in any pain.
"Thanks to you, Edward the pains over, but, I think I have someone else to thank for killing James," I said, gesturing to the shadow.
"I thank you," Edward said, walking up to the shadow, "For saving Bella's life, if there is anything that we can do to pay you for saving her life, we will gladly give it to you."
At those words the Shadow transformed and was now a man wearing a black shirt and comfortable jeans with tousled black hair, "Just let me speak to my cousin when she's well, I have something very important to talk about with her, and apparently to you." He raised an eye brow, "You're her mate? She's ahead of me, then." He laughed.
"How can you tell?" Edward asked him.
"Well, only a pixies mate can bite them without feeling like they are being ripped to shreds, so, thus, I know that you are her mate. And I also know that this here family, and Dodge's clan of green goblins, are now involved in this, and you all have a right to know. But I'll first have to speak to Bella, she needs to know first, because she's one of the most important parts of this whole thing," he said, and went to help Bella.
"Can I ask what your name is?" Edward asked.
"My name is Blake. Blake Swan."
Deamons:
Deamons are known to gather information easily and retain it for much longer than any normal creature, well, expect for one other creature. They usually need to find a certain person to pass on some information. Often they are able to sense this person in ways that cannot be explained in any sort of words, you just have to know what it is talking about.
I would love to recive some lurv. And ideas for creatures. I like those ideas. And seriously, anything you suggest is probably going to be used, so be creative. So, review and make me happy. I would lurv that. So, I hope you enjoyed the chapter that you have just read.
