Chapter 7 – Reunion
On our way back to the abandoned house of doom, I had plenty of time to think about the shit I was in right now. I'm stuck like this forever but was it really that bad? We could easily runaway and I'll be with my friends. Forever. Forever seemed like a long time if you come to think of it. I could get used to it. I could do things I've always wanted to do! Like skydiving, rollerblading or maybe surfing. Ok fine I'm lying. I've never thought about any of those stuff. They just sounded cool.
All my life I could only think about Charlie. My dad. My whole life was sadly revolved around him. Anything I did was controlled by the fear of what Charlie might do to me. Ha! I'm a Vampire now Charlie! Take that! Not even your stupid gun can leave a scratch on me. Anger and hatred bubbled through me. URGH! Even now my mind's monopolized by him. Maybe I could go and rip his body into shreds then he'll be gone! I'll be sane again.
No…I knew I couldn't do that. I know somewhere inside that broken man, was my father. The person I once called daddy. He just loved my mother so much and when she left, I saw a part of him die. I wanted to comfort him. Do anything I possibly could to make feel better but he just shoved me aside just because I reminded him too much of my mother. I looked like the younger version of my mother except she was prettier. Wait. Why am I defending him?! That man who had made me suffer so much? I guess love does that shit to you.
"You know, I would give anything to know what you're thinking now." Edward murmured behind me, giving me goosebumps on the back of my neck. His voice was like silk enticing me to jump him right there. The things that boy does to me… I heard Jasper snicker infront. Oh yea..
"Stupid emo vampire." I grumbled. Jasper laughed throwing his head back.
"Why is Jasper singing the national anthem backwards in his head?" Edward asked. Gosh he looked cute when he was confused.
"Cause he's a freak like that." I answered skipping forward, earning a growl from Jasper.
"Well here we are!" Daniel said opening the door for us. Inside "the others" were lounging on the mouldy furniture like we're all here for tea.
"Mum! Dad!" Emmett yelled dashing towards a blonde man and a brunette. He easily lifted them off the ground swinging them around. Edward and Alice also went to give them a hug. I looked away not wanting to intrude in their family moment. I couldn't help but feel jealous. Even in this fucked up life, they still have their family together and from the looks of it, both their parents seemed genuinely nice.
I looked around trying to see if I recognized anyone. Oh hey! That's Tanya from my Spanish class! Wow she looked prettier than usual. Well duh Bella. Vampires? Remember?
Once the introductions were taken care of, we got down to business training for the "attack". At least that's what their calling it. Victoria asked us if we discovered any of our powers yet. We pretended like we didn't know what she was talking about. Like we're telling that bitch.
Carlisle and Esme, Edwards parents, seemed to be thinking along the same lines as I saw Edward stifling his laughter while he stared pointedly at them.
Daniel then thought us the basics of fighting, later showing us his power. Within a second, everyone was on the floor writhing in pain. "….the fuck." I said out loud as I was the only one standing.
"Ah, Bella, you seem to be the only one immune to my powers. I guess you can sit out of this training." He said.
Whoa there goes our plans of escaping I thought slowly walking to the sides. Pain was etched on everyone of those faces.
"The Volturi has a similar power too. So it's best you get used to this." Victoria said joining us.
No wonder she only needed Daniel by her side to control us. She could get all of us on the ground even before you can say Volturi. That evil conniving…
"Bella! I see you've found your power?" Victoria exclaimed clapping her hands. She looked like she was a kid in a candy store. An evil kid at that.
"It's best that you go work on the shield of yours. It might come in handy."
Work on it? Yea… Maybe I could expand my shield? I could protect my friends! That's it!
I gleefully concentrated hard not really knowing what I'm doing.
Yeaup…annnny minute now…annnyyy…
Okaayyyyy.. maybe not.
