Chapter 13
Here you go people. I hope you enjoy the new chapter.
My writer's block didn't last that long thanks to a certain review
Twilight belongs to Stephanie Meyer and Highlander to whoever owns it etc.
Bella breathed slowly as she crept down the stairs towards her soon to be opponent.
"Come to cut my head off have you Bella. Go ahead you spineless bitch" Lydia said with venom dripping from her voice.
"I'm not spineless. You said you wanted to fight me, I will put your sword down on this table and cut your bindings. You can fight me and we can settle this honourably."
Bella placed the sword on the table and cut Lydia's bindings making sure she retreated to a safe distance so Lydia would not try and attack her before they had begun the real fight.
"I guess I'll be seeing Credo sooner than I thought" Lydia half-laughed half-sobbed.
Bella began to feel guilty about the choice she had made but that guilt was quickly replaced with her survival instinct as Lydia thrust her blade towards Bella. The blade sliced into Bella's stomach, Bella couldn't help the yelp that came from her lips. In one swift motion Bella smashed her sword against Lydia's causing a ring to fill the room, both women were determined to kill the other and neither was going to back down. Bella and Lydia were almost equal for some time as they defended themselves from each attack the other tried inflict.
For a split second time seemed to slow down as Bella considered what would happen if she died. Edward would lose control and he would fall apart and while Lydia would still die from another sword upstairs the new found happiness everyone had found would fade away with her death. Refusing to be the reason Edward would be in pain Bella high kicked Lydia in the face causing Lydia to fall to the ground, another kick to Lydia's hand sent her sword flying. Bella had the women at her mercy and was startled when the women started to laugh.
"I hope Titan kills you nice and slow. See you in Hell Bella Dawson" she laughed through bloody lips.
Anger coursed through Bella's body and in one swift move she slice her head off causing Lydia's head to roll three times before halting to a stop. Bella knew what was about to come when the lights started to flicker, she felt the power in the air. She let out a scream as the power and knowledge surged through her body making her stronger and better than before, as the room calmed she collapsed on the floor breathing heavier and heavier before calming herself.
Edward could hear every word and noise that was happening below, it took all his willpower to not run down and help save his Bella. He knew that if he interrupted Bella he would probably regret it as well as disrespect Bella's wishes. He hoped that he would be able to kiss her soft lips again and hold her against himself.
The door creaked open and Bella walked through with blood covering her t-shirt and her sword. Methos quickly went to Bella and hugged her like a proud father would his daughter. Methos may not be her biological father but Bella was the closest person to his heart and he thought of her as his daughter.
Bella lifted her head and smiled. She had proven herself once again to Methos and the others, she knew it wasn't necessary but she felt the need to prove she wasn't as weak as she used to be.
"She's dead. She put up one hell of a fight as you can tell" Bella said as she lifted the hand that had been covering her stomach to reveal a large wound.
Edward was over to Bella within a second with a cloth to hold against the wound, she winced as pressure was placed on the wound but simply shook it away. Jasper had decided to stay back from the group as he could smell her blood, he didn't want to risk attacking her again.
"I think it is time to leave Bella so she can get some rest" Methos suggested.
"I think that would be wise. Bella call us whenever you like for whatever you might need, we will all see you soon" Carlisle said giving Bella a quick hug before ushering the family out of the house. Bella hugged onto Edward, Carlisle noticed this and smiled understanding that his son would be with the women he loved tonight.
Methos hugged Bella goodbye while Richie gave Bella a quick wave and left without another word.
Edward kissed Bella lovingly. She laughed as she came away from kiss and looked into his eyes.
"Edward never leave me again" Bella asked smiling.
"I will never leave you again I promise."
Bella thrust herself towards his lips and thanked fate for bringing her to Edward.
