Another Creature Chapter 2: Darkness?, a twilight fanfic

Chapter 2

I grabbed Bella and pulled her behind me, he won't hurt her, at least not while I am protecting her. I saw Edward's eyes flicker from pain to fury. I almost laughed.

"What are you doing?" Bella shouted at me. I looked back and saw how being away from him hurt her. I straightened up and looked at her; I could feel the emotions rolling off her. They are almost too strong for me bear.

"You love him?" I almost asked.

"Yes." She said simply. I looked over to Edward; I could feel the same emotions. I finally took notice of how he is now in a crouch.

"You love her." I said in awe.

"Yes." He hissed. "Now give her back." He said as if she is a toy.

"I-I can't." I said honestly. I felt the urge to grab my family and Bella and just run, but I know that would kill Bella, just by looking at her I can see how much she loves him.

"Why?" He hisses.

"She is my task." I said to myself but I know he heard.

"What do you mean?" He asked.

"I have to protect her…forever." I almost explained to myself.

"Mia? Is this your life long?" John asked. I nodded. My family gasped. I finally heard my dad coming from the other room. I put Bella back with Edward and took from my crouch to stand by Will in front.

"Are you kids playing nice?" My dad asked carefully.

"We are not kids." I hissed. I saw how my dad mumbled something that I couldn't hear before going back in the room.

"What do you mean task?" Edward asked with curiosity rolling off of him.

"I have to protect her all my life, as long as we live." I said to him while watching Bella. I knew I have to tell Bella, she is the only person who is technique allowed to know. She needs to know everything about the task, and about me. As well as I need to find what danger she is in and why I need to protect her. I can tell it isn't from the leech.

"Why is she in danger?" I asked while trying to calculate the amount of danger it would take to be my task. Since, we are only given tasks when it is on the up most importance. So…she must have some kind of purpose for living, and she is being jeopardized.

"Another one is after her, we killed her mate, but she isn't like us. She is a human drinker." Edward explained. I just nodded my head.

"Guys, I have to tell them." I saw my family nod. I saw Bella sit down on the small love seat, with Edward to her side. I sat in front of the one the ground, and my family sat on the other couch.

"Well, to start off, this is like your secret Edward. No one can know! Ever. Or else I will be destroyed." I watched them nod and I went on. "Well, my ancestors were Wicca's, and I am following in their footsteps. I have studied it for my life's time, and I am still practicing it. I am in command of my kind. Well, some special, powerful beings are given great responsibility, and I was given one today. For my life and Bella's I have to protect her. Like I said, she is my life's task. She has to be in grave danger for someone to actually have a…protector like me. Of course, she is only my first task, when I start getting older, I will receive another one, but Bella is my main priority. Sometimes, if the goddess is happy enough with you, she will try to find some way of having you live longer. I think that is why I was assigned Bella, she is in danger, and she has given me a sign. She must have known of you being with Bella. She must have had a purpose and I think this was it. I mean that you know can live forever and all. So, I think she is implying that I need to be changed, but I haven't calculated it yet. I will need to invoke the spirit to find out. Is Bella planning on being changed?" I saw Edward nod and I nodded myself.

"Do you have powers?" Edward whispered. I nodded,

"Like?" He asked.

"Well, teleportation, I control the five elements, mind reading, empathy, premonitions, and a lot of other ones." I muttered.

"Were you born with them?" He asked.

"No, I was given them as I aged and showed loyalty and faith." I explained. He nodded.

"Mia, can you explain what he is?" John asked. I nodded and looked at Edward. He nodded and started to explain his species to my family. I saw them nod and gasp a lot. I laughed most of the time. I watched Bella most of the time. I could see her adoration and love in her eyes. I smiled. I should have never reacted that way when I came here. I kept thinking of what kind of danger Bella could be in for her to get a protector, I couldn't figure it out before Edward finished. I saw my family sitting in shock.

"I found one years back, when I first told you about me. But if you would have known, you would have been killed or changed I didn't want that to happen to you. I don't care about me. Well, I didn't. Now, I have to think of Bella, but I don't care if I die, you guys have a future. Not me, I didn't tell you so I could keep you safe." I explained to my family. I saw them have hurt and understanding expressions.

"We understand, but you have a future with us." Lizzi said a little glumfully.

"No, I was born for protection, not so I could have a life." I said truthfully. "I'm sorry by the way, for reacting how I did. I just don't like your kind. Or at least some of your kind, I was afraid for Charlie, Bella, and my family. I can see now that you are safe to be around."

"She is more understanding than Jake." Bella whispered. I knew I wasn't supposed to hear it, so I didn't ask. I tried using my power on Edward. All I could see was him watching Bella. I tried Bella, and she is more clearly than Edward, probably because she is my task.

"You can hear her?" Edward asked. I noticed I took off my shield from me, not my family, so he heard me.

"Yes, why would you ask?" I asked simply.

"Well, I have tried, but I cannot hear her." Edward explained. I nodded.

"She is my task, every task you receive you have a way of communicating with them, through the mind. Some things, say more private things I can't hear, my kind does respect privacy, but some things are crystal clear. And also I am a different species, so our powers are different. You were 'born' with them, I earned them, and so I have no boundaries." I explained.

"You can hear me?" Bells asked. I almost laughed that she is now starting to listen.

"Yes, but only the things you allow me to hear, like I can always no matter what hear you if you say my name. But some thoughts I can't hear, only if you let me." I explained, sort of. I didn't fully lie. She can block me out, but I can get in her mind if I really want too.

"I have a question about what you said about the task." I nodded for him to go on. "Well, do you get your task when you first see the person? Or do you have to wait for the actual danger to be near to have your task recognized?"

"Well I have never really had enough experience with tasks, Bella is my first task. So, she is my most important. Some I can finish or some are never ending. When I come across another task, then I will know. But we have to find out on our own. I will have to find another task to really know." I explained as best as I could. I heard my dad coming.

"Kids, we have to go." Dad said calmly. I saw Charlie walk in behind mom. He smiled to all of us.

"Thank you Charlie for having us, this was very fun. Talk to you later Bella. Edward." I nodded in their direction and waved to Charlie. I was the last to go. My parents ran out the door and jumped in the car, my family walked to the car just as I shut the front door. I ran to the driver side and sat down. I slammed the door shut and slammed on the gas pedal. I headed toward La Push. I can feel the tension in the car.

"Guys, I am sorry I didn't tell you I mean I didn't want to hide it all these years, but you could have been hurt, no you would have been killed and I love you all too much to risk any of you being killed, you are my family. I love you and I want to have you all. I don't want to have to live the rest of my life knowing that if the Volturi found out they would have killed you. It would have killed me to know that I was the cause, that I can't protect you as well as I think I can. I wish it was simple to just let you know and say you will only have a baby time out like you used to give me when I was younger." I explained in a rush.

"Listen, I know that you think we are fragile little humans, but we are not. We want to be there for you. We know you can't handle this on your own. And it damn sure won't be the Cullens there for you. That is our job. Just give us the chance to actually do the job." Lizzi explained and almost begged.

"Okay, okay." I sighed. I explain everything to them. All the creatures I have met, all the encounters I have had. All my powers, even my encounter with that vile little vampire. I explained it all and they didn't judge me, not even a little. They thought I was strong, they said they were proud.

"How could you be proud of a disgusting vile repulsive thing like me? You should scream at me, tell me to never come near you again!" I said loudly.

"Will, I-I….I just want you to live a happy life, and you all have to admit, I have forced you to be antisocial I mean John, you were one of the most popular person at you high school back home, and then I told you and you sunk down, you only talked to us, you even ignored Lizzi for a while because you thought I would hurt her! I just want you to enjoy your life while you can!! I always ask you to be faithful and not to tell anyone, maybe I want you to actually have a life." I said with a sure voice, I saw them nod but Lizzi just starred.

"What do you mean hurt me?" She asked.

"Well, you already know that sometimes my energy gets so low I can't even move, well you have never seen it, well none of you have, but when I have no energy I have to hunt, and yes drink…blood." I shivered. I remember the first time it happened, since my goddess thinks of us as a modern day vampire, she has her children drink blood to stay healthy, I have only once had to drink blood, and I hated it. It has to be human blood. Or at least I thought that at the time, but now I can have either, it is very dangerous to have human blood, since a bond can be formed and it can be dangerous and painful for both Wicca and human. I had John get me blood from the blood bank.

"I have to drink blood, I thought I could only drink human blood, you know that, so John thought I would harm you, of course you know I wouldn't, but we were both learning about me." I explained I saw her nod and kiss John on the cheek. I just laughed.

"So your not mad?" I asked as I kept my eyes on the road.

"Of course not." They all said as they smacked my head. I laughed and sighed reluctantly as we all got out of the car. I covered Lizzi and me both with fog-since I control the elements it is a mix so that we are almost invisible all you can see is wind- and started walking slowly, they might not be able to see us but they can hear us. I saw John fiddle with his keys and they both walked slowly to the first beach. I saw a group of big buff guys surrounded by a fire. I saw the guys walk over to John and Will and they started laughing and talking. I felt the need to run over there, like a pull, but I resisted and started walking back to the woods. When Lizzi and I reached the woods I took off the fog and sighed. I heard someone coming in the distance, I teleported Lizzi and me home. She yawned and I laughed.

"Time for you to go to bed." I laughed as she gave me a hug and walked over to John's bed, I didn't even realize we appeared here. I sighed and teleported to the dance room. I walked over to the closet and put on my dance cloths. It was only my black fleece sweats that go to my knees. My pink tank, my black hat and my white Nikes. I out my hair in a pony tail. I turned on the music. I heard the music start and I let my mind move me. I wasn't even aware as I started my routine.-the routine from step up 2 at the end when they are at the streets it is mostly Andie's parts but with Moose's hat trick too. - I started to sing too. It felt weird, I only sing when a big emotion is in my system.

If I'm a bad person, you don't like me
I guess I'll make my own way
It's a circle
A mean cycle
I can't excite you anymore
Where's your gavel? Your jury?
What's my offense this time?
You're not a judge but if you're gonna judge me
Well sentence me to another life.

Don't wanna hear your sad songs
I don't wanna feel your pain
When you swear it's all my fault
Cause you know we're not the same
Oh we're not the same
The friends who stuck together
We wrote our names in blood
But I guess you can't accept that the change is good
It's good
It's good

You treat me just like another stranger
Well it's nice to meet you sir
I guess i'll go
I best be on my way out

Ignorance is your new best friend
Ignorance is your new best friend

This is the best thing that could've happened
Any longer and I wouldn't have made it

It's not a war no, it's not a rapture
I'm just a person but you can't take it
The same tricks that once fooled me
They won't get you anywhere
I'm not the same kid from your memory
Now I can fend for myself

Don't wanna hear your sad songs
I don't wanna feel your pain
When you swear it's all my fault
Cause you know we're not the same
Oh we're not the same
We used to stick together
We wrote our names in blood
But I guess you can't accept that the change is good
It's good
It's good

You treat me just like another stranger
Well it's nice to meet you sir
I guess i'll go
I best be on my way out

Ignorance is your new best friend
Ignorance is your new best friend
Ignorance is your new best friend
Ignorance is your new best friend

You treat me just like another stranger
Well it's nice to meet you sir
I guess i'll go
I best be on my way out

I didn't know what that song meant, I couldn't decipher the lyrics but I guess it just another thing weird about me. I just kept running what they said to me in the car.

"Never say anything like that again, we love you. You are our sister, and we are not going to tell you to leave! We love you and will never leave you!! No matter what!!! I don't f***ing care if you think you are not good enough for us! You are beautiful selfless and we will never ever shun you out!!! You are with us no matter what and that is final!!!" I have never heard Will speak to me like that since I told him, before I told him, he always yelled and we fought, both verbally and physically, then I thought him and I thought he was scared of me. I always get that feeling, but now I think he is trying to feel tough? I don't know, but this defiantly wasn't Will, he is usually so quiet, and he is always there for us when we need him. I guess this is just hard on him, I heard him talking to John a while back, saying he thought something was going to happen to me, he thought I would be cocky and misuse my gifts, but I am wise with it. I just don't know what to think. That is when I had enough, I have to stop, I'm getting dizzy, I could feel the room start spinning. I heard the door open up stairs and I heard feet walking on the floor, a lot of feet. I see the room spinning and I feel myself wobbling. I felt the mirror under my head, I felt I giant pain in my head as it smashed into the glass mirror, I heard a big crash and feet running down the stairs, I hear shouts, but I felt the darkness engulf me.
