Chapter 8:The Fight

Bella's POV:

I was in a daze when I woke up. The bright light was blinding me. I can hear someone arguing but their voices were too low that I couldn't even hear it. The last thing I remember is Alice's frantic voice. It was all in a blur. I couldn't remember what happened after that. I tried to open my eyes again. I was in a room that looks like a hospital. The voices became more clear for me. I can hear Rose's voice. She sounded angry.

I couldn't catch all the things she said. I only heard what..think…doing..here. It doesn't make sense. Then I heard his velvety voice. I guess Rose was trying to get him to leave. I didn't hear his response. It was too low for my human ears. Maybe Rose was shouting that's why I heard her voice.

"No. It's okay Rose." I managed to say to her. I couldn't help stopping them from their argument. They're a family. They shouldn't be torn apart after all those years by just one mistake of Edward. And that is bringing a useless human in their lives. I'm a menace to them and I know that now. And it hurts. Very much. Like my heart was being ripped open. But someone has to give in eventually and I think it should be me since I caused all of this. "I want to speak alone with him." I continued. I had to face him eventually. "If that's okay with you guys." I added.

"Are you sure you're going to be alright?" Alice asked.

"Yeah Alice. Don't worry. Besides, I think I can handle him." I joked. It can't hurt. Can it? Besides, this is the last time I'll be with them as a family.

"Go get him Bells." Emmett returned the joke. I laughed. Emmett is the same as he was. I'm going to miss them. They're my family and I love them but I have to let them go so there will be no problem anymore. They went out of the room and I was left with him.

"So--" he paused like he was deliberating whether or not to tell me what he has to say. "I-we-I mean and Marie broke up today." he stuttered. I didn't expect him to say that. I was shocked I couldn't form a response. It took a long time for me to speak.

"Is that supposed to make me feel good." I asked sarcastically.

"I think." he said. I sighed.

"Edward, I don't want you to be unhappy. If you really like her, I would let you go," I said to him. "Even if it hurts." I muttered under my breath.

"Why are you being so nice? I don't deserve this." He asked. It was a blunt question. Marie really changed him. This isn't the Edward I know. But resentfully I still love him.

"Because I don't do things the way you do. And you definitely deserve to be happy." I said. I could see the hurt in his eyes. Well, I think I was a little harsh on him. I held his hand. "I still love you. But I'll let you go."

"Bella, I just want you to know that part of me still loves you. And part of me loves Marie."

"Great. So you want me back because she' not here? I'm not a toy Edward." I said harshly. I withdrew my hand. How dare he say that. Is he really that naïve? Maybe those are the disadvantages of being a human. You're just a thing to be played with or experimented in a way you won't know. Vampires aren't meant for humans and I know that very well now. From what he did to me and the things he said now, this theory is a fact. I should have believed long ago so I wouldn't feel like this. Like a trash. A reject.

"I know. And I didn't say those things so you should be with me. I want you to know the truth."

"I don't know which words that come out of your mouth is the truth Edward." I blurted. I couldn't help being hurt by his words.

"I know you can't believe me easily after all I've done. But Bella I want you to know you deserve someone better."

"Yeah. Maybe I do. Maybe it's Aro. Or James. Too bad he's dead."

"Bella, I'm serious."

"Well, do I look like I'm kidding? Edward, you can't expect me to accept and forget everything that has happened. It's a hard thing to do. Even love can't conquer it. Maybe before it can but now it's just so big I don't know I can heal. It still hurts inside." There. I said it. The things I've been feeling lately are so terrible that I wish I would die.

"I know. I felt it when Marie left me." he said. Wow. Does he really want to say in front of my face that I'm a worthless creature? Like it isn't enough that I know he couldn't love a plain human like me. I wasn't enough for him. Never have and never will.

"Wow. Marie is a very lucky girl."

"Why?"

"First, she got you. Then when she left, that's the only time you felt pain. What about me? Think about it. You're the one always leaving and I'm always the one following you like a dog following a master. I've loved you for so long but I'm not even sure you returned those feelings for me. You were never hurt during our relationship. Not even once. I'm always the one hurt. Physically and spiritually. And I'm a menace to you cuz you have to protect me everyday. Every minute. Maybe those are the disadvantages of being human."

"Those are not true. I have loved you. I felt hurt and pain too." he said. I an see the sincerity in his eyes . I tend to forget he's a vampire. He can fool me in many ways. But now I am never falling for his façade.

"Please stop. I don't know if I still believe you. You know why I'm hurt always? Because I'm naïve. I'm a martyr for my love for you. And even though I badly want to suppress these feelings it's very difficult. My love for you is more than my love for my life and family. It's hard to move on. And moving on with my life without you is the hardest thing to do right now." I said. It's like I'm confessing to him now. I can't help it. I want him to know what he did to me. How it hurts for me. A human.

"Then let's be together again." he said. He really is crazy. I'm not a fool to fall for him again. He's using me as a…..distraction..... as he put it.

"I don't know if I can. I can't stay with someone who doesn't love me. It hurts more."

"I love you Bella." he said. I couldn't help but snort.

"Of course. Because you have no other option but to be with me unless Marie goes back."I blurted. It wasn't meant to be said to him. I was just thinking about it. It slipped. I was out of control. I let my emotions get the better of me. But at least he knows now what I'm thinking. Isn't that what he wants? To hear my thoughts. Huh. At least now he would realize I don't think good things.

"I can change." he said. Is he that double-faced?

"Uh-huh. Keep telling yourself that and maybe you'll believe it too. Edward, this is going nowhere. Just…leave. Please. I still need to think about this and a lot of things for that matter."

"Okay. If it makes you happy."

"Nothing can make myself happy anymore. My life is miserable and it's useless." I snapped .

"It's not. There are still--" I cut him off.

"If you say so." I can feel the tears starting to pool in my eyes. I closed my eyes to keep them from falling. I couldn't let him see how vulnerable I was.

"Goodnight Bella." he said. I didn't respond. I can feel tears rolling down my cheeks. I heard him leave the room. I opened my eyes and I cried my heart out. I heard muffling sounds outside then it was silent for a moment. He was gone. Forever. And I have nothing to live for anymore.

Victoria's POV:

I went to he Volturi to be of help to them but now I couldn't help but wanting to kill Bella for my own not to hand her down to them. But I have no choice but to do it. They gave me powers when I needed it and in return I have to get Bella which I was willing to do. I have been staying near the Cullens for a while but not as Victoria but as Marie. As they say keep your friends close and your enemies closer. My plan worked out so well. Now, their lives are miserable especially Edward and Bella's lives.

"Riley." I called while running in the forest.

"Who are you?" he asked.

"It's me." I transformed back into my original appearance. I forgot Riley isn't used to seeing me as Marie.

"Oh. Victoria. What is it?"

"Have you trained the newborns already?"

"Yes."

"Very well. We will initiate the plan now."

"And what was the plan?"

"You idiot. We discussed this a lot of times. You and Sam will get Bella then the newborns will fight the others remember?"

"Oh. Sorry." he grinned.

"Go now. Tell Sam. Wait, how many of you are going?"

"More than 20"

"Very good." I hurried back to Marie's form then went back to the house.

"How is she?" I asked trying to sound concerned Not excited since it'll give away my cover.

"No progress. This is all my fault." he leaned into my shoulder. Well, it is really his fault. If he didn't kill James I wouldn't be here avenging his death.

"No, it isn't entirely your fault. It's also my fault. " Because all of these are my plans. I added in my mind. "I shouldn't--I should have--I should have loved another guy."

"Love is never a wrong thing. It's me. I messed up all of these."

"You're taking the blame on yourself again. I'm part of the blame too Edward." I responded. Wow. I'm becoming accustomed to this act. Good thing I have this shield so he can't read my mind.

"You're not, Marie."

"Same old Edward. You know I remember when I first met Bella--" he cut me off.

"Please don't."

"Okay then. When I first met you I was intrigued. You seem so attached to a human." In fact me and James were very intrigued about this family. Who can stand a human in their house, right? They would have killed her like any other vampire.

"She was special."

"I know. Special in a very nice way. You protected her soul" I said.

"And now I've destroyed it in a way."

"She loves you. I still remember when you had this big fight about her immortality."

"I remember it too. She was just too stubborn."

"Yeah and you find it cute."

He laughed. "True,"

"Do you still remember when you mistook me as Bella before?"

"Yeah. It was so disrespectful for me to do. I freaked out on that one. I missed her like hell at that time and I was just so eager to have her in my arms. I was having delusions at that time. I saw her face in yours. Can you believe it?"

"That's what you call love. But I'll admit, after that kiss I was sure that I fell in love with you. It was the confirmation of my feelings. And I would like to say thank you. It was great even though it was meant for Bella."

"You being honest and open with me is great. You really are my best buddy. Well, you might call it best friend. But now you're more than that. " he pecked me on the lips. Which I may say is gross. If not for this mission I would have smacked him a lot of times.

"If I'm not mistaken, we were never best friends."

"Well, yeah technically you can say that. But you never knew I considered you as my best friend. So yeah."

"Since when? Would you be so kind to refresh my memory."

"Since you started helping me out with Bella. Helping me with our arguments."

"Specifically?"

He sighed. "Sorry. I'm just so intrigued and you and Bella always.. No offense, but you are always ..debating if you might call it that way." I quickly said.

"Yeah. You can say it that way. So, it was when we fought about what she wanted."

"Which is?"

"Making love with her."

"Oh. So, how did I help? Sorry. But I forgot." he didn't know it but I was mocking him. Intentionally.

"You talked her out of the situation. You said it's not safe and it's more exciting if she waits. And you also said it's not fun if the ..umm.. partner is hesitant. Which is actually true. If we did it I would have to worry all the time of not crushing her into pieces. Her offering was tempting but I have to control it even though I want it too."

"So, why did you choose me?"

"Cuz I love you."

"Since when? When did you claim or know that you love me?"

"Well, I really don't know. I just felt it. One time, I really missed you. I was worried about you and I was pacing around then you arrived and right then I wanted to touch you. To feel you. To kiss you and hold you tight in my arms. At that time, I realized I love you. You know, these were the feelings I felt when I still loved Bella. Well, I might say you are common in many ways. Brave, strong, quite stubborn, and pretty. You are both unique in your own ways."

"Oh I see. When was that time?"

"When you hunted alone." he said. I laughed in my mind. When I hunted alone, I was planning this whole thing of attacking which will take place later.

"She's safe now. "Jasper went out and we sighed in relief after we heard the news.

"Thanks Jazz for telling us."

"No problem." he said.

"You know what, I think you still love Bella." I said excited by the thought that after all these years of planning, we will finally get revenge.

"I don't" I looked at him disbelievingly. "Okay. Fine. Maybe I do. But I love you more Marie."

"Maybe. But I know for a fact that you love her. Maybe your just confused. Maybe I'm just a copy of her.. a distraction for you." I said wishing he would just give in and let me go.

"You're not. Yes. Maybe I still love her. Part of me does. But" he held my hand "part of me tells me that I love you more than her." he said. I withdrew my hand. I really need to go now. If I'm stuck in the fight, I have no reason not to fight my own team.

"I umm.." I shook my head." I need to think things over. I'm a --"I sighed." Edward, I think we should just cool off a bit."

"Wh-what?"

"It's for the best." I held his hand and squeezed it. "Trust me."

"Marie, please. I love you and --" I cut him off.

"I know. I love you too. " Ew. I never loved him. But I have to say that because he is so stubborn for a vampire. "But I really need to think things over. I just need time . Please don't come looking for me. Goodbye Edward." I hurriedly stood up.

"Wait. Please don't go. You're the only one left to me. I can't lose you. I'll never allow it."

"Please do this for me and Bella. Goodbye." I ran as fast as I can. At last. Freedom. I thought I could never get out of there. Well, it's time for me to join my team. Time to get the human. I laughed . The thought of it makes me giggle in excitement. I went to the middle of the forest and looked around to make sure no one can see me. I slowly transformed back into my original body taking in everything that has happened and the things I've accomplished and the most important thing that is about to be accomplished.

"It can't be." someone whispered. It sounded familiar but I couldn't quite remember. I turned around and saw a shocked Edward. He saw me transform. Now I'm dead. Not really. I could run. Maybe not. Ugh! Well, it's better he's not in there. He's too strong for them. I'll handle him here. Besides, he already saw my secret. There's no use to pretend. I'll have to savor my victory over him for now.

"Hi Edward." I said.

"I-How-Should I call you Marie or Victoria? What is your real identity?" he seemed confused.

"I am.." I paused and came near him. "I'm your worst nightmare Edward." I laughed. This is going to be so fun.

"Huh. Figures, Victoria. What did you do with Marie?"

"Marie? She's not real. I'm Marie. The one you love." I smiled..

"You pretended to be Marie?"

"Yes and no. But at least you fell in love with me. I gotta go. " I ran. He caught up with me.

"You're not getting away with this."

"Oh yeah? I think I am. It's easy but destroying you and Bella's life is a lot easier." I laughed.

"I'm going to kill you."

"Are you sure you want to kill" I transformed into Marie. "Me Edward?" I sweetly said.

"You are not Marie."

"Oh I am. Do you remember when we first kissed? Hmm?" I laughed evilly. "I'm late for my appointment." I ran again.

"What the hell!?" I screamed. He lunged for my neck and held me against a tree.

"You are going to pay for this." he hissed.

I scoffed. "Oh am I?"

"Yes."

"Let's see who's going to win." It took all my might to push him away. I ran as fast as I can back to the Cullen's house. I saw Alice fighting Riley and it seems Riley's losing. And coincidentally Riley has Bella.

"Riley! Get Bella out of here." I said then fought with Alice. I think she was too easy for me than last time. She was staring after Bella. Everyone else was unconscious. She was the last one still standing straight. Tough for a pixie like her. She was distracted. And that made it easy for me to defeat her.

"You didn't see this coming?" I mocked her.

"No. And you're going to die." She snapped.

"I don't think so." I pushed her to the far side of the wall. She was light-headed. "That's what you get when you worry too much. You see no future." I laughed then ran as fast as I can to catch up with the others.

Bella's POV:

No one came in after he left. I was glad they didn't ask questions and discussed things to me. I was tired of everything. I heard someone coming in through the window. I had a twinge of hope. But it was lost when I saw it wasn't him It was another vampire but his eyes were bloodshot red. It was quite scary. He went near me and scooped me up. I think I must be dreaming. My blood appeals to him but he tried so hard to control his hunger. I didn't dare fight him because it would be useless since he's very strong. I didn't scream because if this vampire is going to kill me he better do it soon because I can't live from the pain I'm feeling right now. I heard something crashing outside.

"Emmett, get Bella!" I heard Alice scream. In a flash, Emmett was in front of us ready to fight. The vampire ran for the window but Emmett threw him against the wall. I fell onto the floor. The last thing I saw was Emmett being pushed into the wall by the vampire. He was too strong for Emmett. I closed my eyes in defeat. I felt like I was floating and something wet was surrounding me and I smelled a mixture of rust and..salt. Then it hit me, it was blood. I had blood all over me. I felt nauseated and once again I fell into a pool of darkness.
