Chapter 6 Overpowered

I stood there for a second as the young man moaned on the ground, but he started laughing..so not a good sign. "Pet you're a special one aren't you? Powers like that can be put to good use, especially for me." Before he could say more I ran, nothing I could do to the man I slammed into a wall and laughed about it. I was probably getting myself lost, running past door after door, to hall after hall, getting nowhere. His voice echoed the hall behind me not far. "Sweet girl, I don't know why your running when I can catch you anytime." I found a back door that took me to the wood, but I figured running in the woods alone where no one else could find me was kind of stupid. Then I felt a tug and fell flat on my butt.

"Like I said little one there is nothing you can do, running from a vampire is pointless. I thought Peter would have taught you that by now..Or are you that new? Never mind that either you come with me or I'll just kill you to spite him.

"I'd rather you kill me thank you very much, but I won't be that easily killed either." I threw whatever was around me at him, which at the moment was a rock. Smacking him right in the face, he growled and flew himself at me. I knew he was going to bite me first and drain me to finish me off. But like I said he was going to have a fight first. I kicked yelled and bite back. Images of my parents, Jacob, Cassia, and Peter flew in my head. They would want me stronger not to give up, not to be weak. I felt my body start to tingle, thinking it was from the blood loss, but no my hands from what I could see were glowing, my body felt like it was building on some sort of strength.

"YOU WILL NOT KILL ME!!" I yelled my last breath as everything around me felt like it was exploding. The trees surrounding us leaned and branches snapped, I felt myself lift off the ground, but not by him but by the power building inside of me. I looked to him how was now staring and had fear in his eye…good.

"I am not weak; I am stronger than you and will always fight back." I had no idea where those words came from, why I was saying them. "I will destroy you!" His body lifted in the air, he tried to bring himself down anything to get away from my power. I felt my hands lift as I pointed to him and squeezed my hands tight. I imagined closing my hands on his neck, his breath started being pulled from him. I am power I am stronger. I thought to myself, again not sure whose words these were.

"CASSIA!" I heard a shout from behind me, but I didn't turn didn't let go, no this person who want to hurt me."Cassia please my love, you'll hurt yourself in the process do not give into you power…PLEASE" It was Peter his voice pleading and worried.

"He wanted to kill me, I----I---I don't know what's happening Peter." I looked at him then, his hand held out to mine wanting me to take it. "I can't stop it, I---I want to do this."

"No love, take my hand I will take you and your power within me to help you. I don't want it to hurt you anymore, take my hand Cassia." His hand stretched to reach me and his blue eyes were now the color of amber.

I took it, his hand clasped quickly around mine pulling me to his chest. The power still burned from me swallowing up the intruder, he didn't look much alive anymore. "Peter I can't" I cried.

"Love I need you to let me in, you have a shield up, and I can help you. Think about knocking down a wall, and your shield will fall." His hands cupped my face. I heard more trees breaking, the wind and power growing faster.

"A-a shield…how..how I don't, okay I'll try" I closed my eyes thinking of opening to Peter letting him hold me, feeling safe and knocking down whatever wall I had up. Then he was there with me in my mind, his presence warm and safe. I heard him outside my mind say something in a language I have never heard, the wind started dying and my power began to fade from my body. The other vampire fell to the ground unmoving but I could see a slight breath. I felt Peter stroke my hair and lift me up; other voices came from behind us.

"Peter what the hell happened, we saw everything from the road on our way here?" It was Lara she sounded worried and out of breath.

"Was it the girl; is this the one that is your mate?" A male voice I didn't recognize said.

"Yes this is her Marcus, and her powers seemed to of taken a bit of a scare with that rogue over there on the ground. He was after her from some reason. Jacob take care of him and question everything out of him, or what's left. I have to get Cassia inside, Lara come with me.

My vision kept going in and out, my power had drained me till my bones felt like noodles. My body dangled in Peters arm as he carried me to a room. All the sound I could hear was the mumbling of voices surrounding me, shadows danced around me while my eyes tried to look at anything...something.

"Peter I need to concentrate, make sure everyone stays out of this room, you can stay here but I need silence okay."

"Alright Lara, just heal her" I smelled Peters clean sent and his cool hand touch my cheek…good I felt safer with him here. I felt another hand on my forehead and one on my stomach, then warmth swam through me numbing my body of all pain. A floating sensation ran through my senses and I was too tired to think anymore. The last thing I heard was Peter's soft voice. "Thank you Lara."

I woke to a dark room, but I knew it was morning; Peter's house must have protection from the sun for vampires or something. I knew I wasn't in my room because I didn't see my parents picture on my bed side table. I tried to get up but my body was sore and tired still, and I had something like steal wrapped around my waist. I looked to see an arm was around me, Peter's; he had his eyes closed and looked peaceful. His beautiful face was so close to mine, his hair messed up from lying here for who knows how long. This man was my mate, I could feel it in my soul and I knew one day I could love him. But right now I had to figure out who I am, what I am and what my future hold for me.

"Hello love, I was worried about you." Said Peter's rough wonderful voice. His arm that was around me pulled my closer and he kissed the top of my head. "You worried everyone yesterday…I –I am so sorry I wasn't here to protect you and then your power…you weren't ready and I almost lost you." His eyes were so worried and I felt him hold me tighter. "I will never leave you in harm's way again my love—I." I didn't let him finish I kissed him and wrapped myself in his embrace.

"Peter no more talking just lay here with me for a bit. I just want to stay here for a while and nothing else." And we did, for hours we said nothing just held each other and it was the safest feeling.

Later I woke alone, this time I was able to move and the first thing I did was find the bathroom. Yep so lady like but a girls got to go and yeesh I really needed a bath too. I soaked for a good time, but had nothing to wear and walked over to the enormous closet in the room. It was full of beautiful made men's clothing obviously this room was Peters. I pulled a couple of shirts that were way too long for me, but a nightgown would do for now until I got to my room. I started to the door and hearing voices echoing by the door. I opened to find Lara, Peter, Jacob and some guy standing there now staring at me in Peter's big shirt.

"Cassia you awake." Lara ran and hugged me tight making me ache again. "Oops sorry sweetheart I got a little carried away, I am just so happy you're alright." I smiled and looked over to Peter whose grin grew while coming to me.

"This looks like one of mine, a little big for you but absolutely adorable. Marcus this is my mate Cassia, Cassia this is Marcus he is a high council member for the vampires like me. Also a friend of mine from the beginning of my time and he is going to stay here for a while, while we figure out this rogues reason for the attack." Marcus was a good looking man, not as beautiful as peter but handsome where any girl would fall before him. His dark black hair was cut short and perfect, his hazel eyes had a hint of amber and glowed bright.

"A pleasure Cassia I have waited long to meet the woman who would be born for Peter." He bent to kiss my hand.

"Nice to meet you too Marcus, umm sorry about umm—yesterday or whenever that was...I." I really didn't know what day it was actually. Or what happened to me, am I turning into something incontrollable.

"Cassia, Marcus and I must discuss some matters so I would like you to go with Lara for a while so she can check on you." Peter's soft lips kissed the top of my head then the two vampires took their leave."

"Well let's get a look at you in my office okay, I want to make sure your healing oaky. " Jacob came with us but was very silent, his usual loud and flirty self seemed to have faded…I hope he wasn't afraid of me. I sat on a black comfy couch near the window in her office; a storm had started today painting the window with wet streaks.

"I know your probably freaking out in that head of your about what happened the other day with your special abilities, but you have to understand under extreme situations sometimes your power acts with an instinct to attack and attack hard. It seems yours did that and more, I—well I have never seen a novice with powers like yours before and I have seen many. We have people with ability to control fire but not to the extreme, masters at weaponry, healing, unbelievable speed, invisibility, and some I have seen with super strength. But never have I seen mind control where it's actually taking over the surroundings and a physical being. "She looked lost in thought and it made me worry a bit.

"So I am the extreme freak then? Do you have to lock me away or something? Am I too dangerous?" All these questions flew threw me.

"Darling, no one in their right mind would lock you up, you are too darn precious and would probably be able to get yourself out. " Jacob finally spoke walking over to me. His eyes looked as worried as Lara's. "We just don't want you to hurt yourself, not only are you important to use because we care for you, but for Peters sake if anything happened to you…he would probably destroy the world. I might be exaggerating but only a bit."

"Jacobs right, we need to get you trained, this guy wasn't the last I am sure, we found out he was after a list of names on our guardians for someone. But if in any way he got in contact with his master and told him about you, well that's more trouble we have to be ready for. Though he did seem to smile when we mentioned you." Lara now squeezed my hand hoping I realized the importance.

"Okay…well I'll do anything then, but I do need something right now."

"Sure anything Cassia we are here for you." Lara smile was always so warm.

"I need to see my parents, I have to ask them something…or at least one of them … please." My parents were guardians too and I needed their guidance at the moment too much was going on.

"I'll see what I can do darling, I have to ask Peter about this, but I am sure if it's for you he'll give in. Jacob winked about the fact.

A couple hours later and new clothes I was eagerly waiting for my parents to come. Not only did I want to talk to them I missed them so much. I stood by the window as everyone else sat on the couch talking, I overheard that more guardians and vampires would be arriving at Peters throughout the week. Some master vampire was trying to pull something against guardians and the council and it had to be stopped. Then I saw my car...well my parents and I bolted out the door. I know it was a bit childish but hey I traveled and did everything with my parents until one day I am some special person who has to live another life. My mother was the first to reach me in a tight hug.

"Sweetie how are you? Is everything alright I heard what happened? Lara better of took care of you well! And Peter…darn him he should have been with you." My mother, always the protective type but a strong woman.

"Laura, don't blame Peter you know he was at a council meeting, and she looks strong and healthy to me." My father gave me a pat on the shoulder.

"Laura, Victor it's good to see you again, I hear you had some trouble with rogues up north? " Peter asked shaking my father's hand.

"Yes sir but we got those three with ease, but they seemed to be popping up everywhere for some reason." My father looked concerned. "But I am worried on why the change of interest with my daughter." Peters face took a serious turn with that question.

"I believe this is meant to be discussed inside and away from others ears, my shields can be broken through." We headed inside I was glad I could finally get answers now that my parents were hear; Peter and the others weren't talking. "Oh and I believe Max should be here soon too." Oh that should be interesting having Jacob and is brother in the same room. We went to another of the million rooms in Peters "House" yep house is not really the right word for this place. But once we got there Peter stopped me at the door.

"Cassia I have some things I have to discuss with everyone, why don't you get some more rest and relax for a bit while we all talk." WHAT! I screamed in my head, how could he say that, this involved me too and I asked my parents to come.

"You're kidding right because this has every bit to do with me you know." I was feeling my face start to redden with anger, I never use to be an angry girl but this was irritating.

"Love I know, but this involves guardians and members that work for the council, which you are not just yet...Please Cassia." He tried to cup my face like always, which normally I accepted but this time heck no. I moved away and his face completely dropped. "Cassia---"

"Don't' touch me…. I ---You have no idea---nothing at all what happened to me---and you're going to discuss the possibilities behind my back. Sure let's see what else you can do to help some crazy vampire try and kill me...what leaving me alone the first time not good enough!" Oh my god I had no idea why I was so angry and I was being horrible to Peter. Sadness ached in his eyes and he looked so hurt.

"Cassia what is wrong with you!" My mother yelled from inside coming towards me. I was still furious and I felt like my body was on fire. Peter again tried to touch me.

"My love please, I didn't mean it like that I only want to protect you." He touched me this time, only making me angrier.

"NO!" I yelled sending out a current of power making me drop to me knees. "Leave me alone!" why..Why was this happening again? My emotions and power were gaining strength together. Peter looked hurt as if I had hit him...which I probably did.

"Cassia no—noo—you have to control this!!" I heard Lara yelling while running to me. I felt a warm shield enter around me...then silence… "Cassia are you okay?" I heard Lara ask. I looked around to everyone and then to Peter who's expression this time I couldn't read. Then I felt it, something dark and deeper but it wasn't from me it was being projected into me.

My voice felt as if was being taken over. The words that came from me I couldn't understand but it sounded Russian:

"Я, кажется, находим вашего помощника Питера. Я не могу ждать, чтобы иметь ее для меня непосредственно." (I seem to have found your mate Peter. I can't wait to have her for myself.)

But it seemed Peter knew exactly what I was saying that meant it was Russian, and then I fell to the floor.

I woke up and from what I could here was surrounded by people, I was getting really tired of passing out and so I just sat up.

"Love take it slow." Said Peters soft voice, oh my gosh the words that I said to him before all came back to me.

"Peter---I didn't mean it—"My throat hurt too.

"I believe you were angry and I am sorry for hurting you my mate. But what I worry about right now is how you're feeling?" He held me to him…his normally cool body was warm to me.

"Actually I am kind of interested in who the hell spoke through her a while ago." Said a demanding deep voice. He looked a lot like Jacob but with a broader chest and bit taller, Max I thought.

"Rude as always Max, I am concerned for my mate right now." He remained silent for a moment then sighed because Max didn't move. "It was Julian Cross; I can never forget that tone of his." Who was that I thought? Peter seemed to of heard me loud and clear. "Julian is a very old and very power master vampire and someone who broke every rule the council ever made. He is not liked to many of our kind as well as the guardians, though he does have followers."

"Oh--- though I am a bit curious…what did I say to you?" remembering the unknown language I spoke.

"You said: I seem to have found your mate Peter. I can't wait to have her for myself. This is what worried me the most, I feel he knows of your unique gift and he wants you know." I looked around at everyone their face all the same worry as Peter.

Oh man this is some seriously bad stuff I am getting into now and the worst part is some extreme powerful vampire wants me for my power, that seems to take over when I am angry…..NOT GOOD!
