Hello again! Right new chapter up. yaaaaay.
Right, i feel i need to explain what Bella's power is as i didnt explain very well in the last 1.
Bella's ability is to be able to absorb the powers of any vampire that is within a close enough distance to her. This is why she is having visions, hearing peoples thoughts and nearly feeling the emotions of people around her.
She also has anoter trick up her sleve, but im not going to tell you that, you will have to read the chapter.
Hope you are enjoying this. i am telling you now that this story will becoming to a end soon. This is chapter 22 and i dont plan to go much furter than 25 so im kinda trying to tie everything together now.
Anyway, enough of my babbeling. enjoy this!
Bella had been lying on the bed now for 2 days. Apart from the screaming at the beginning she had been very quiet. For the first time in a while, everyone's minds were silent. Everyone was just watching Bella. Carlisle had come back to make sure that everything was going as it should be. Emmett and Rose had come back a few times, but Emmett was anxious to keep looking for Naomi. We still didn't have any idea where she was. She had been gone for nearly 3 days now and we had all been taking turns to go out and search for her.
Elizabeth had been unsettled for the whole of the time that Bella was going through this. She was refusing me take her milk, the only time she slept as when she was so exhausted that she would start to fall asleep when she was playing. It was distressing enough watching Bella go through this and when my daughter was refusing to take eat anything, the only emotion that I had coming off me was worry.
Jasper had been in Bella's room from the beginning. I knew that he was doing his best to try and take some of the pain away from her, but because he was concentrating so hard on keeping Bella calm, I didn't know how much of the pain he was taking in because he didn't think about it.
Alice, as ever, had not left Bella's side. Every time Bella would scream and thrash around on the bed, Alice would be there to sooth her and try and calm her down.
Me on the other hand. I could do nothing. I stayed with her, of course I did, but there was nothing that I could do to comfort her. It made me feel terrible. I was the one that had done this too her and there wasn't even anything that I could do to help her through this.
Carlisle and Esme had come back a few hours after Bella had finished screaming. Esme was out with Emmett and Rosalie looking for Naomi. I knew that she was concerned about Bella, but it hurt her too much too see one of her children go through this.
I was so concentrated on Bella, that I didn't notice that Jasper was telling me something in his mind.
Edward. she isn't in pain any more, but she is very angry. I don't know what is going through her head.
He looked over at me, looking confused as his thoughts were.
Alice was sitting next to Bella holding her hand. I watched my sister as her facial expressions became blank and emotionless. Then I watched the vision that was going through her mind.
Naomi was crouching in the corner of a dark room. It looked like warehouse. Naomi's eyes were black with thirst and fear. She looked terrified.
A door opened and Victoria walked into the room. Naomi hissed at the women as she walked into the room, backing her self even further into the corner of the room.
Victoria walked closer to her and grabbed the tops of her arms and dragged her off the ground.
How dare she touch my daughter. She was going to die!
I could feel a growl growing in my chest at the sight of Victoria grabbing my daughter like that.
I let out the growl that had built up in my chest. At the exact same time, Bella sat up from where she was lying on the bed and echoed my growl.
I had to admit, I was shocked that she had woken up. It usually takes about 3 days for the whole transformation to take place. Bella had only been out for 2 days. I have never known for someone to wake up so quickly.
I watched Bella, as she sat on the bed taking in deep breaths. Just as Jasper had said, she looked livid.
I looked over at Carlisle, who looked as shocked as I did. Looked over back at Bella, who was still sitting on the bed, panting.
"Bella?" I asked, cautiously.
She met my eye, still looking furious. I made a mental note to myself to never get on the bad side of her.
When she didn't say anything to me, I stood up from where I was sitting and took a step towards her.
Be carful Edward.
Carlisle told me in his head.
I stopped moving towards Bella.
Bella now turned her attention to Carlisle and her expression changed into one that made her look confused.
"Why did you tell him to be carful. I'm not going to do anything to him." Bella told Carlisle.
How did Bella know what Carlisle had said to me. Alice and Jasper both looked confused as each other.
"Bella, sweetheart I didn't say anything. I thought that." he said.
Could Bella hear people's thoughts? She must have been able to if she was able to hear what Carlisle had said to me. Well, thought to me would make more sense.
Bella, look at me!
Alice said in her mind. If Bella was able to hear people, then she would easily be able to hear Alice's excited little voice in her head.
Bella turned her head to look at Alice. Bella looked completely confused by the fact that she was able to hear what people were thinking.
Alice was so happy. She was literally bouncing up and down on the bed.
"Edward she can do the same as you. This is so exciting." Alice said while she was still bouncing on the bed.
Alice suddenly stopped and looked at Bella. Her expression also changed. She looked a little shocked.
"Bella. Your eyes!" Alice said looking closely at Bella's new face.
I hadn't actually noticed anything different about Bella's eyes. They were exactly the same colour as they always had been.
Wait! Newborn vampires were suppose to have red eyes!
"They haven't changed. They are exactly the same colour as before." Alice said, taking hold of Bella's face and looking at her even closer.
"Alice, can we please talk about this later. I need to find Naomi. That's why I woke up suddenly. I had images of her looking scared and Victoria went to grab her and it made me so angry. I have to find her now!" Bella said, getting up off the bed.
Bella's POV.
As soon as I sat up, I saw that everyone was looking at me. Edward was the first person who I saw. He looked confused. I didn't know why. Had I been out for 3 days? Had something happened while I was going through that.
I also listened. I was trying to see if I could hear any of the voices that I had been hearing while I was going through that. I couldn't. It was silent.
"Bella?" Edward said. It sounded like he was making sure it was really me.
I didn't realise until that moment that I was still so angry from the vision that I had seen of Naomi in that warehouse.
Edward took a step towards me, but the sound of Carlisle's voice stopped him.
Be carful Edward.
Why was Carlisle telling him to be carful. I wasn't going to do anything to him. I turned my head so that I was now looking at Carlisle, confused.
"Why did you tell him to be carful. I'm not going to do anything to him."
Why did I suddenly feel confused. I looked around the room to see Alice, Jasper and Edward looked as confused as I felt. But I didn't know why I felt confused.
"Bella, sweetheart. I didn't say anything. I thought that" Carlisle told me, bringing my attention back to him.
I just looked at Carlisle. Shocked. Could I really hear people's thoughts. But, I thought I could do what Alice does because of that vision that I had that woke me up. Ok now I was seriously confused.
Bella, look at me.
I heard Alice ask me. I turned around to see what she wanted.
As soon as I had turned around, Alice started to bounce up and down on the bed. She was I could feel the excitement rolling off her.
"Edward, she can do the same as you. This is so exciting." Alice said while she was still bouncing up and down on the bed.
Suddenly, Alice stopped bouncing up and down. Once she had stopped completely, she started at me. She looked really confused and concerned as she looked at me. What was it with everyone's emotions today.
"Bella. Your eyes" Alice simply said. I didn't have a clue what she was on about, and frankly I didn't care at the moment.
"They haven't changed, they are exactly the same as before" Alice said sounding shocked. She placed both her hands on either side of my face and looked at me closer.
"Alice, can we please talk about this later. I need to find Naomi. That's why I woke up suddenly. I had images of her looking scared and Victoria went to grab her and it made me so angry. I have to find her now!" I said as I removed myself from Alice's grasp and went to stand up.
"Wait, what do you mean. You had images in your head?" Alice asked me, looking confused for like the 5th time in the last few minutes.
"I saw images of Naomi in some sort of warehouse. I don't know whether it was my subconscious playing tricks on me, or if I can do the same as you Alice. But that really doesn't matter now. I really have to go!" I said as I walked towards the door. When I opened it, I saw Emmett and Rosalie coming up the stairs.
I don't know why, but as soon as I saw Emmett, I suddenly felt very angry towards him. He had been the one who had been looking for Naomi for the last 3 days, I should be thankful that he was here. But then again, he was the one who I left in charge of my children, and then Naomi ran away. I know I shouldn't feel this way towards him, but I did.
"Damn Bells, you look great" Emmett said once he saw me at the top of the stairs.
As if a automatic reaction to the anger that I had towards him, I let out a growl towards him. He just stopped and looked at me stunned.
"What the hell is that for?" he asked.
"I thought she would be safe with you. I thought you would be able to watch her for one weekend. I left her for little less that one day and she had gone!" I yelled at him walking towards him now.
I didn't know how angry I looked, but I must have looked pretty pissed because Emmett started to back away from me.
Bella, please calm down!
I heard Jaspers voice in my head.
"Bells, Jasper was here too. You cant blame only me for this" Emmett said now against the wall.
I could hear people moving in the next room, obviously coming to make sure that I don't kill Emmett. I turned my head and looked at the room. I felt like if I reached out in my head I could be able to close the door. I tried it. It worked. The door slammed shut, closing everyone in my room.
Bella!
She did that with her mind!
Oh great. Were in for it now!
A number of confused voices come into my head. I didn't listen to them, I simply tuned them out.
I turned my attention back to Emmett.
"Emmett, I know Jasper was here, but you and Naomi have a connection that I'm not even going to try to understand. I felt safe leaving her with you. She felt safe with you and I come back and she is gone!" I shouted again getting frustrated.
In my frustration, I flung my arms in the air. When I did that, Emmett's body began to lift off the floor. Shocked by what was happening, my arms stayed in the same position above my head.
"Bella. What are you doing?" Emmett asked, now about 4 foot off the ground.
"I don't know!" I said just looking at Emmett, who was now a good 3 foot off the ground.
My arms were still above my head at this point. I let my arms fall to my side. As soon as my arms were down, Emmett fell to the ground. I just stared at Emmett on the floor.
"What the hell was that Bells?" Emmett asked standing up from the floor.
I noticed that everyone had got out of my bed room and was now standing behind me.
"Bella, what did you just do?" Edward asked putting his hands on my shoulders.
"I don't know. I got really frustrated and angry and when I put my arm above my head, Emmett went up in the air." I said, flustered a little.
This could be interesting.
I heard Carlisle's voice in my head.
I knew that Carlisle's thoughts were sincere. I knew that he would want to know more about the powers that I had.
"Anyway, I did actually come back to tell you something. I think I know where Naomi is. Victoria has been very clever and has been running all over the area so there was no distinct scent to follow. But I found one that was literally hours old, so I followed it and I found this big building and I swear Naomi is in there." Emmett said.
Oh my god. He found her. I was going to get my baby back. I was too taken up in happiness to realise that Edward was yelling at Emmett.
"Why didn't you say that when you got back?!" he asked angrily.
"Well, I was going to, but then my oh so loving sister started to yell at me and then I was floating in the air." Emmett shouted back.
"Emmett, where is she. Show me where she is. Now!" I told him.
With out saying another word, Emmett turned around and walked back down the stairs. I took Edwards hand and followed Emmett. I could feel that everyone was relieved that Emmett had found Naomi.
I knew that my first instinct as a newborn vampire should have been to hunt. But that just wasn't there. The first thing that I needed to do was to find my daughter.
I still hadn't had the chance to look in a mirror, so I didn't know what Alice had meant about my eyes. It didn't bather me what my eyes looked like.
Emmett had run out of the back door and into the woods. I followed, wanting so much to over take him, but I didn't know where I was going. As we ran through the forest, I noticed all the things that my human eyes would have never picked up. The different shades of green that covered the trees and the ground, the different patterns of bark on the trees. There were so many different sounds. Could hear the wind blowing through the trees, even though there was only a very light breeze in the area. Birds were singing different songs, and I was able to distinguish where one song ended and another one began.
After we had been running for about 30 minutes, Emmett slowed down. Me and Edward followed him closely. I could see a large building beginning to appear. It was a large square, grey building that looked like it had been vacant for years.
"Ok, I'm pretty sure Naomi is in there somewhere. Victoria's scent is strongest here so im guessing this is where she has been for the past few days" Emmett explained.
I heard Edward growl from behind me.
I listened for what sounds I could hear from inside the building.
I could hear someone moving around that was certain. I listened more carefully for something more distinctive. Like a heart beat.
If I could hear Naomi's heart beat then I would go in their straight away and get her.
I listened closely, and then I heard it. A heartbeat that was going 100 miles a hour. She was terrified.
When I heard that I got up from where I was and walked towards the building with Emmett and Edward close behind me.
I was going to kill Victoria tonight.
Naomi's POV.
I had no idea where I was. It had been days since I left the house.
I missed my mommy and daddy. Why did I leave. If I had just stayed where I was, I would never had ended up here.
The women who was keeping me here wasn't very nice. She wouldn't let me out so that I could go hunting.
I was so thirsty, It had been nearly a week since I had gone hunting last. All I had been given was water.
I sat in a ball in the corner of the room where I had been put. I had been in this position for the last 3 days.
I didn't know if anyone was looking for me. How would they know where I was.
I rocked back and forth in the corner of the room, when I heard someone come in through the door in the other room.
I got up and looked through the crack in the door to see who it was. But before I could recognise who it was, the room was filled with hisses and snarls that I didn't recognise. Then a scent hit me that made me realise who it was. Daddy. They had been looking for me. I looked through the gap in the door again to make sure that my senses were right.
I saw Daddy and uncle Emmett crouched down as if they were going to attack someone looked around to see who else was there and I couldn't believe my eyes
Yaaaaaay, they found her!
If you didnt figure it out, Bella also has the ability to controle people. ( Well at least she will once she gets a hold of what she can do. for now she just sort of fources them against a wall so that they cant move. As Emmett found out)
Ive had alot of reviews and PM asking me about Bella as a vampire and if she is going to have all the traits of a newborn.
Well, i think ive been clever here. I have brought all of Bella's maternal instincts so that they over ride any vampire instincts that a newborn will have. That is why she has no deisier to hunt as soon as she wakes up. her only thoughts are of her daughter. so that is why.
People hvae also been asking me will Bella be abel to be around Naomi and the baby as they are both half human?
Yes she will be, for the same reason that Naomi didnt attack bella when she was first thirsty. because they are blood related, they will have no desier to attack one another.
Anyway thought i would just clear that up for you.
Wow that's a big A/N lol.
I will try and update again soon, but i cant promis anything.
You know what to do, i dont have to ask you. Review please!
Ly all!
