Trust Factor

A/N: Yeah if you all haven't figured it out yet, snows gone and schools back on. I have had writers block with this story and have been spending a lot of time on my 101 Way to Ruin a Mermaid's Life, so I thought it was about time to get something up for this one. So here you go.

Chapter 21: Everyone Has Their Wonderful World of Magic (wow that is a lot of chapters for me)

Sunday January 25- 8:00pm-Ash's House-Mexico

Anna stayed crouched down outside of the big house. She saw lights everywhere and the constant blur of blond hair by the window. She could tell the mermaid was watching closely, even if she couldn't see her eyes looking out the window. With her vampire hearing, she could make out the sound of crying and the sound of some whom was very angry.

"How are thing, Anna?" Zane asked through the walkie talkie he had given her. Anna pulling the gadget from her jeans.

"She's still at the window, but more lights are on, they've split up," Anna said with her always sweet child-like voice.

"Tell us the second she looks away," Zane said back.

Inside the house, Rikki watched as Seth held Cleo close to him. Rosalie and Bella C. had taken Emma's body away from the living room. Everyone was either crying, comforting, or bracing for the next fight.

Jasper and Alice were whispering to one another just quiet enough no one else, even the vampires, couldn't hear what they were saying. Then Alice was silent, her eyes out in a daze. She looked up and said, "They're coming soon, that Zane boy and his team."

"We have to be ready," Rikki said expression less.

Cleo whipped the tears from her eyes and stood next to Rikki, looking like she was ready to fight. Bella H. moved in on the other side of Cleo, ready as well. Seth moved in behind Cleo, and Leah behind him. Bella C. and Rosalie looked to each other but stood up as well. Jasper stood in the group and pulled Alice in front of himself.

"We'll be as ready as we were last time," Cleo said expression less and everyone nodded.

Sunday January 25- 10:00pm- Somewhere in the woods-Mexico

Lewis walked quickly, and like Bella C. was very aware of everything. Carlisle and Edward were the closest behind him, with Esme and Emmett right behind them. The woods were dark, but it didn't bother any of them.

It took a while, even for the vampires, to get to where Lewis was trying to lead them. When they got to the spot, everything was silent. There were two boys, neither could see the group sneaking up on them, and according to Edward, they couldn't tell.

One of the boys had a walkie talkie and was speaking low, but Edward knew what he was saying, and he wasn't happy about it.

"They're going to attack the house again," Edward said. "Someone named Emma is died or dying, and some girl named Katie is dead."

"Emma's Dead?" Lewis asked the sadness in his voice showing. Shaking it off quick, he kept his attention on the two boys.

Just then there was a loud sound. More of a sound of a bomb going off in the woods. There was smoke and an easily follow able smell. The group would have ignored it, but since the sound was behind them, the boys turned to look and saw them.

"It's Lewis, get them," Zane called to his group, which were hiding in various places around the camp.

Zane and Tommy's army started after the small group. They ran deep into the forest, towards the noise and smoke. Their chase didn't last long, for they ended in an open field facing two small boys.

Sunday January 25- 10:15pm- Ash's House-Mexico

The group at the house was steady, ready for whenever the fight would start. Those who could, had changed to clothes they could easily move in as they fought. They had gone over a very simple battle plan that would work in any battle against vampires, and with Alice giving ok enough predictions of each idea without the wolves or Nessie involved.

As they planned their fight, there was a loud sound, like a bomb going off in the woods. Rikki was quick to the window, just to see Anna trying to hide behind the trees. Jumping at the opportunity to get Anna away from her group. Bella C, Rosalie and Jasper started after Anna into the woods, towards the smoke.

Jacob, Seth, and Leah ran out and transformed. Then they let Bella H. and Cleo get on their backs. Ten they started after Anna as well. Alice left Nessie with Ash and followed the wolves after Anna.

There chase only last a secant, for they ended in an opening in the woods. In the middle, there were two boys. On the other side, Zane's group and the others. The two boys in the middle were so turned around. They did a quick spin of the area, before finding an open place into the woods to run away.

This left the two groups staring at each other. Tempers were flaring and people were ready for a fight. Edward, Emmett, Carlisle, Esme, and Lewis stepped out into the opening and crossed to the other side. After that everything just started.

The fight got quickly out of hand. Many of Zane's army was already on fire, including little Anna. Watching, Zane tried to calculate their moves, but Cleo was very unreadable as was Bella H, whom was also calling shots. Bella C. stayed near them, but she was closer to the others. Zane had not understood yet, what she was actually doing.

It didn't take long for Zane and Tommy to be alone with one other vampire Tommy had made, Penny. The other group stood in a strange position, starting with Cleo and Rikki in the middle. Seth was behind Cleo with Leah and Jacob not far next to him. Behind Rikki was Bella H. and next to her were the vamp. couples, Bella C. and Edward, Rosalie and Emmett, and Jasper and Alice. Carlisle and Esme stood behind them with Lewis next to them.

Tommy and Penny lowered their heads in defeat. Zane one the other hand was not ready to give in to his girlfriend. He pulled back from them.

"I'm not giving in," He called. "Never, you just remember that, Rikki." Then he was off, into the forest and out of sight before anyone could question.

Edward tried to go after him, but he was stopped by Carlisle. After looking Tommy and Penny over, they too were let go to themselves. Both promised not to stay around the south and find a better way of life. And that was that, the war was over and the Cullens had won.

A/N: Ok I just had to say that the part with the two boys and bomb was an idea I got from my friend, Emowing333. I was having some meager writers block. I also had to say, no this will not be the last chapter. I will sum everything up in the next chapter, tie up all lose strings and everything. So if you have any questions. I will try to answer them in the last chapter.
