Chapter Two: Powers

I became more acquainted with the Cullen and Hale family. Edward has the ability to read minds, Bella is a "shield"," Alice can see the future, and Jazz can sense a person's emotions and manipulate those emotions as well.

"So, Dahlia, do you have any special abilities?" Emmett asked. I nodded. "Well, what are they?"

"Well, I can see a person's best and worst memory of their past… or that memory could be the present. Emmett, I'm not going to be repeating what yours is. It's… very… disturbing," I said, laughing at the last part.

Jasper was looking a bit pained. "You mean?" I nodded. "That's how you knew to read the diary entry instead of explaining that memory."

By now, Bella and Edward had gone to their small cottage. Emmett and Rose as well as Carlisle and Esme and left as well. Alice had run upstairs to do something. "Yes, I probably would have done that even if I hadn't seen your memories."

"Alice, if you're getting a room for Dahlia. Don't set one up!" Jasper called. We ran up the stairs to find a sad Alice.

"Why not, Jasper? She's staying here," Alice pouted.

"Well, I will be sharing my room with Dahlia. Is that okay?" Jasper comforted Alice. She nodded.

"Jasper, you didn't have to –" Jasper cut me off though.

"Dahlia, I wanted to though," he told me and gave me a tour of the house. "The last one is our room."

Jazz's room is exactly how I imagined it would be. A dark maroon with black décor was the color pallet. The furniture looked almost exactly like it did back then - black wrought iron, aside from the leather couch on the far side of the room. I noticed how he had kept all the small trinkets I had given him so many Christmases and birthdays ago. "Jasper, you kept all of these?" I asked him. He nodded. I gave him a hug. "Wait, I remember some of these being mine. How Jasper?"

"Well, I managed to get them before the house was tore down," Jasper managed to say before Rosalie, Alice, and Bella walked in.

"Dahlia, Rose and I are taking you shopping today!" Alice said. Before I could object, Rose and Alice had gotten Bella and myself into the back of Alice's Porsche.

"I see you're not one to go shopping either, Bella," I said to Bella. She smiled as Rose and Alice laughed.

"We'll get used to it eventually," Bella told me so Alice wouldn't kill either of us again.
