Chapter 4: Understanding
Bella POV
Their eyes. It was a bright red. No!! It can't be!!
"Vampires," I whispered.
"Well how do you know about us little girl?" the brunette girl asked.
"Don't play with our food Jackie," the man with brown hair teased.
"She smells so delicious," the blonde haired girl caressed my cheek. I shivered from disgust.
"Don't touch me," I said shakily.
"Well, who are you to think that vampires could possibly listen to you," the brunette taunted.
"Because she's with me," a voice said.
I turned around. It was Flame. No!! He could get hurt.
"What a measly human?" the blondy laughed.
"Huh, you only wish," Flame chuckled evilly. He fucking laughed!! Is he damn right crazy?!?!
"Flame?" I asked.
"Stand back Bella," he ordered. I couldn't help but follow his orders. He had full authority in his voice. The man tried to grab him, but Flame quickly dodged him. He moved almost as fast as a vampire. But even faster. What the hell?!?!
"You should know better than to try to hurt an elemental," Flame tisked. Elemental?? What the fuck is that?!?! I'm so confused.
"You can't be. Elementals don't exist," the brunette whispered.
"Well they do. They always have," right after that, the three vampires lit up on fire.
Flame's eyes were fiery red. Almost as if…… as if he controlled the fire. The three vampires diminished into nothing but ashes. Flame turned to look at me with worry in his eyes.
"Flame," I said.
"Yeah?" he asked.
"What the hell was that?" I asked still in a daze.
"Uhh, nothing?"
"The hell it was nothing!! You freaking……. You fucking put a vampire on fire!!" I shouted in frustration. His jaw dropped.
Suddenly, the rest of his family members appeared surrounding us.
"How did….. how did you know about vampires?!" he asked.
"The Cullens, they were vampires," I whispered.
"Are you damn right crazy?!?!" Xenon yelled.
"Fucking vampires should burn in hell!!" Ritz shouted.
"They're nothing but monsters!" Terra added.
"I hate them, and that's saying a lot coming from me," Zephy continued.
"You… you're ex was a vampire?!?!?!" Flame screamed.
"Yes," I whispered.
"He could have killed you!!"
"I know"
"Yet, you still hung around him. What were you waiting for?!?!?! He could have eaten you at any moment," Flame shouted.
"Bella, vampires aren't the type of creatures that you would be hanging out with, let alone date," Dimitri added.
"Stupid freaking Lilith!! She just had to create such monsters!" Nixie continued.
"Damn!! This girl is hard core!" Nyte exclaimed.
"SHUT UP NYTE!!" they all shouted.
"Bella, what were you thinking?" Flame asked.
"I just…... I thought he was different. They drank from animal blood," I explained.
"Yes, but their blood lust was still there. One little drop of human blood could make them go crazy," Flame continued.
"I knew I was wrong ok?! I get it. I've literally cursed vampires away from my life, but because of the danger magnet that I am, they keep getting to me," I said.
"I'm so sorry," Flame was immediately by my side. He held me in a tight embrace.
"Now will you tell me what the fuck you guys are??" I asked softly.
He turned to look at everyone else and they nodded their heads.
"Well, we're elementals," Flame said like it was the greatest thing in the world.
"And that is??"
"Ok elementals were created by I guess you could say mother nature? She split up her powers and gave it to us. We are human, but not completely. We have a beating heart, unlike those filthy bloodsuckers. Those vampires of yours must have thought that they were the most superior creatures out there, but they're not. We are. Us elementals. We are immortal forever. To be an elemental, you're either born as one, or you were the human mate of an elemental.
But our ages, are our actual ages. We aren't like 110 years old or something, well….. yet. It's because we all just recently stopped aging. As an elemental, you can choose the age that you want to stop aging. Our hearing, speed, strength, and sight are 100 times better than all mythical creatures combined. Nothing can kill us. And I mean nothing. Our skins are impenetrable. Our own kind can't even kill us. The only way we could die, is if we choose to.
We can also reproduce, you know, have babies and stuff. When we are born, we can choose what element we want to be. If you are a human mate, once you and you're elemental mate are joined through your body and soul, you go through a transformation. It doesn't hurt though. It lasts for an hour. You can also choose what element you want to be. We are the only elementals left here in the world. So I guess you could say that's it our job to revive our kind. All mythical creatures bow down to us. We all control a single element," Flame finally finished.
"Ok," I said.
"Ok? That's all you have to say?" Xenon asked.
"Yeah, it's not like you guys are bad," I said.
"And I thought she couldn't get any cooler!" Nyte and Dimitri said.
"So you accept us?" Flame asked.
"Why wouldn't I? From what I've experienced so far, you guys have been the best thing that has happened to me," I said sincerely.
"Thank you!!" Terra hugged me.
"I don't care about what you guys are, I like you guys for who you are," I continued.
"You're the best Bella!" Nixie and Zephyra also gave me a tight hug.
"Yes!! I have a new sister!" Angel and Ritz gave me a bear hug.
"Flame?" I asked. He immediately trapped me in a tight hug.
"Thank you so much for accepting me. Accepting us," he murmured against my hair, "I love you."
My eyes widened. He what?!?!?!
"I'm so sorry, was I too early? I'm an idiot, I shoul – " I silenced him with my lips.
"I love you too. Please don't ever let me go," I whispered against his lips.
"Never," he agreed.
"Sorry to break up your lovefest but I'd really like to show Bella my element," Xenon said happily.
"Fine," he groaned.
"Well, I know you noticed why I wore bright colors right?" she asked. I nodded.
"Well, that's because my element is energy. I can control anything that has to do with electricity. I can also make lightning storms. I love anything bright and colorful. I can short circuit anything. Without me, there would be no such thing as a sun. We'd be living in a world of darkness. My name, Xenon, is a word that means Light," she said proudly. She snapped her fingers and lightning suddenly struck behind us. (AN: Xenon actually doesn't mean light. I couldn't find the right name for her so I just made one up ^_^ But everyone else's actually mean what I'm going to write, unless I say so)
"Whoa," I said in a daze.
"I know right!" she giggled in delight.
"My turn!! Well, my element is water. And basically, I can control anything that has to do with water. I can make water appear at anytime, whenever or wherever. I could make water appear in the driest place in the world if I wanted too. Without me, water wouldn't exist. My name, Nixie, means water," Nixie explained. She held out her hands and two waterballs appeared at the palm of her hands.
"Me next!! My element is air. I can control the wind and everything that has to do with it. Let's just say that you don't ever want to piss me off. I could accidentally form a tornado or a hurricane by accident. I'm usually the peaceful and calm one. Without me, there would be no such thing as gravity or air. My name, Zephyra, means wind," Zephyra said. She made a tiny whirlwind appear before us.
"And my element is earth. I can control nature. I can allow things to grow faster like plants, trees, and etc. I can also move things around. I also have connections will all kinds of creatures. As an earth elemental, I have the power to heal. I can heal the sickest people in the world. I could also form earthquakes. Without me, all these things around us, trees, plants, and all kind of nature, would not exist. My name, Terra, means earth," Terra said. She made a few trees sway from side to side. She also got a few roots to tickle me.
"Well, my element is the same as hers. And my name, Dimitri, means earth too," Dimitri shrugged. Realization dawned on me.
"You were the one who tripped me, weren't you?! That's why you looked like you were about to laugh crazily," I pointed at him accusingly.
"Yeah, sorry about that," he smiled at me sheepishly.
"Moving on, my element is spirit. I can control people's emotions. Also, I can make people's spirits to switch. For example, I could take your spirit and put it inside Flame's body. You'd still think the same, but you'd just be in another person's body. Without me, feelings wouldn't exist. My name, Angel, means spirit," Angel explained. His example was that he switched bodies with Terra. It was very funny because Angel's body started to move around like a girl. They eventually switched back. (AN: I also made his name up)
"Well, my element is ice. I could freeze things and such. I can allow it to snow. Like Xen, I could also short circuit stuff by freezing it. If it wasn't for me, we'd be living in such a hot world. My name, Ritz, means ice," Ritz said. He froze a waterball that Nixie formed. (AN: I also made his name up)
"Last but not least Nyte!! Well, my power is dark. You kinda noticed that already because of the way I dress and stuff. If it weren't for me night wouldn't exist. We'd be living in a world full of sunshine. Also, I can make anyone feel depressed if I wanted to. I could also kill things with the snap of my fingers," Nyte stated. He snapped his fingers and a once lively flower next to us, immediately crumpled up and broke into pieces. (AN: Well, I names him Nyte because…… you know, his power is Dark. I thought that it fit)
"This is so cool. And I thought vampires were awesome," I said astonished.
"Honey, vampires has got nothing on us," Nyte snapped his fingers in a Z formation. I laughed.
"And yours is fire, am I correct?" I asked Flame.
"Yeah, you already got a glimpse of my power, but that's not what I'm limited to. I can create fire whenever I want, I don't need to be near a source of fire. But when I am near one, I become twice as powerful. Out of all the elements, I'm the most respected, powerful, and needed. Because of me, blood runs through your very veins. I keep humans' blood warm enough to flow through your body. I'm also the reason passion and warmth exists in this world. Without me, love wouldn't exist. Neither would comfort. You know how they say that any other planet cannot harbor life? That's because us fire elementals don't exist on other planets. If we did, they'd probably be liveable. Lastly, without me, we'd be living in a frozen and ice cold world," he said with a smile. (AN: I named him Flame because his power is fire. It actually went great with it!)
"Ooohhh, this is great. I'm in love with the most awesome elemental in the world," I gave him a kiss. He kissed me back. I heard a 'pshh, yeah right!!' hanging in the air.
I looked around and everyone else was already gone.
"Where'd they go?" I asked.
"They wanted to give us some privacy," he mumbled against my lips, "I love the dress."
"Thank you," I managed to get out. He had me pinned against a wall. His hands were trailing up my thighs and he was hiking up the bottom of my dress.
"Flame," I moaned.
"Ugh, Bella," he groaned. I could feel his hardness against me. It felt so good. I moaned again and again.
"Flame…. Not here," I squeaked out.
"You're right, this shouldn't be the place where we have our first times," he agreed.
"Wait, your first time? So you've never had sex before?" I asked.
"No, I wanted to wait for the one. And now, I know that I chose the right decision," he smiled.
"Thank you," I whispered, "for everything."
"I love you Bella. I'll cherish you every minute of the day," he said.
"I love you too Flame. Very, very much," I added.
"More than him?" he asked.
"Yes, much, much more than Edward fucking Cullen," I agreed making him smile.
"You know? I like it when you cuss," he said randomly. He was so cute!!
"Really? I do too"
