Overwhelming Darkness

A/N:Let me know what you think! This story is written as a collaboration by both Xo BellaItalia oX and DeathsQueen26. If you have any questions or comments, post them in my reviews and I will answer them in my next Author's Note! We hope that you enjoy the story and look forward to reading your reviews.

IMPORTANT: A lot you brought up the fact that in the last chapter, Bella seemed to be a virgin, when she had previously been pregnant with Jake's son...etc. I just wanted to clear that up really quick. Bella technically is not a virgin, but when she went through the change, her hymen was healed, so therefore, he had to break through it again. However, it won't heal again, because his venom (juices) went inside her at the end and sealed the wound so that it wouldn't make her a virgin all over again and again. I hope this cleared some things up for you guys! - B

Previously with Sebastian, Christopher and Maria...

The Mistress turned her head to look over to Christopher and I as she spoke in rapid vampire tongue so that the boy would not have the chance to understand her. "He decidido que después de alimentarse de él, lo voy a cambiar, convirtiéndose en el primer soldado de mi nuevo ejército como me retracto de mi territorio de esa pequeña perra, Isabella." (I have decided that after I feed from him, I will change him, making him the first soldier of my new army as I take back my territory from that little bitch, Isabella.) She announced this with pride in her voice before she suddenly clocked him over the head, causing him to drop to the floor in a heap. "But I can't very well do that here with so many humans around, now can I? We will just have to go and take over one of the ranches after killing the current owners in order to build my new compound." She sighed before turning her attention back on me as she approached me. "Now, my dear, dear Sebastian... what plan did you say that you have to help me accomplish my revenge?"

A wicked grin spread on to my face as I delved into my plan, keeping the seer and the mind reader's ashes tucked safely in my robes.

Chapter 16
(Sebastian's POV)

I placed the two jars on top of one of the nightstands that were in between the two full sized beds in the ratty motel room. Maria studied the jars, as well as Christopher, though he was the first to react.

He snorted loudly as he gestured to the two glass jars. "What the hell is this? What are ashes supposed to do? Powder them to death?"

I couldn't help but to roll my eyes. "This, right here, is the ashes from the Mind Reader and the Seer from that veggie coven that the Major had been staying with."

A sneer tugged at Maria's lip. "Yes, the little bitch that he had left me for."

Christopher huffed. "Maria, he didn't leave you for her. He was already gone when he met the all-seeing little bimbo that looked more like a boy than a beauty."

"Shut up! Nadie te preguntó!" (No one asked you!) She retorted.

"Yeah," I crossed my arms in satisfactory. "No one asked you!"

"No one asked you to parrot everything I said either, Sebastian!" Maria growled, whipping her head in my direction.

I gulped. "My apologies, Mistress."

She just waved my apology off and pressed me to continue. "Get to the point before I loose my patience."

I nodded ferociously. "Yes, Mistress." I gestured to the jars once again. "I have developed a gift -"

"A gift?" Maria interrupted. "What gift? You never told me that you had a gift!" She shot me an accusatory look that would have made any grown man's knees quake.

I swallowed hard. "I wanted to perfect it before I revealed it to you, my Mistress. I couldn't bear the brunt of your disapproval." I bowed humbly, waiting for her forgiveness if she would grant it or not.

"Suck up," I heard Christopher mutter before a slap resounded throughout the room as Maria struck Christopher. "I'm sorry." Christopher gritted out in the calmest voice that he could. "Though, after my heroic venture to saving your ass, Maria, you could be a little more appreciative."

I did not look up at her, but I could picture her narrowing her eyes at me as she spoke, ignoring Christopher's insistent rambling. "Show me this gift of yours and what it has to do with these ashes, here." I could see her out of the corner of my eye gesturing to the two jars.

I picked up one of the glasses at first, though, I wasn't sure which one was which since I didn't bother to label them, and dumped the ashes straight on the floor, making sure that they were in as tight a pile as I could. I placed the empty jug back on the nightstand as I focused my attention back on the ashes and placed both of my hands over top of the pile without touching it.

Maria and Christopher watched with rapt curiosity – even though Christopher would die before admitting it – and waiting for something, anything to happen.

I could feel the heat growing through my fingers down towards my palm and then being pushed down and outwards toward the first pile of ashes. I concentrated on the research I had to do on the human body and how it came together as the ashes began to swirl and form the image of the pixie-like female that I had seen before me as she entered the punishment chambers in front of the Goddess. Finally, it began to solidify.

Gasps were heard from the Mistress and Christopher as they saw the seer suddenly appear before them, naked as the day she was born. Her spiky black hair was flat against her head, there were no designer clothes draped over her and her eyes were no longer gold, but the hazel eyes of a human she opened her eyes at the very same time that her heart started to beat.

The seer gasped as her eyes flickered around the room in fright. "W-What's going on? Where am I? Who are you people?"

A smile full of malice appeared on my beloved Mistress's face as she approached the frightened young human girl. A slow clap began to echo around the ratty motel room as she appraised my work that stood before her.

"Oh, Sebastian... you've outdone yourself, mi amour. I never thought it was possible, nor did I expect this." She looked over at me from her spot in front of the seer. "Imagine the possibilities, the thought of never having to worry about dying." She looked back over at Christopher, who still was slack jawed at the display that I had just put on before him and his meaty head of his. "La diosa no sabrá qué le pegó en la cabeza que muy poco de ella. Y, como cuestión de hecho, yo sé dónde exactamente cómo vamos a conseguir que el resto de nuestros soldados. Lo único que tendrá que hacer es esperar.(The Goddess won't know what hit her on that pretty little head of hers. And as a matter of fact, I know where exactly how we shall get the rest of our soldiers. All we will need to do is wait.)

And then she lunged at the Seer, her screams echoing throughout the room as she bit into her neck and injected her venom in preparation of the transformation. I couldn't help but to smile at my Mistress's pride in my ability as I bent down and put my hand over the second pile, the Mind Reader's pile, as I prepared to allow him to rise from the ashes. I had to do this quickly before the Goddess realized that I was gone and that it was me who stole the ashes. After all, the Mistress needed some inside lintel and I was perfect for the position.

A/N: I know that it's definitely a short chapter, so I'm sorry! Anyway, what did you guys think of it? Any ideas on what will happen? What about Bella and Jasper? Will they work out their differences? Review!

If you have any questions or comments, post them in my reviews and I will answer them in my next Author's Note!

BELLA'S VIRGINAL STATUS: A lot you brought up the fact that in the last chapter, Bella seemed to be a virgin, when she had previously been pregnant with Jake's son...etc. I just wanted to clear that up really quick. Bella technically is not a virgin, but when she went through the change, her hymen was healed, so therefore, he had to break through it again. However, it won't heal again, because his venom (juices) went inside her at the end and sealed the wound so that it wouldn't make her a virgin all over again and again. I hope this cleared some things up for you guys!

THE WOLVES' AGES: Yes, the wolves are technically ten years older, but since they don't age until they stop phasing, they will remain at the age that they first phased at. For example, Seth may be twenty five, but he still looks like a fifteen year old boy.
