Another A.N. Sorry just wanted to remind you bold and italics is Edward thinking just italics is Bella.
Hunting with Tasha and more complications
As we heading into the woods with Tasha I couldn't help but feel like so much has gone on lately. I went from my wedding, to my change to traveling to Volturra, to Jacobs wedding, to eliminating the majority of the Volturi.
If I would have guessed how my life was going to turn out when I was still leaving in phoenix, there is no way in heck I would have guessed even one thing that had happened to me. It was truly amazing, though everything I went through has assured me eternity with the people I love.
Just thinking about my amazing family made me feel so lucky, every single one of the Cullen's meant so much to me, I don't know what I would do with out them.
But I didn't have to worry about that my family was safe, at least for now. I need to just enjoy the free time we have and relax.
But now I have to focus on the task at hand, we need to teach Tasha how to change her entire diet. She no longer wanted to feed on humans and we were going to do everything we could to help her through this transition.
We were coming upon a pack of deer a few miles to the left; Tasha smelt them and headed that way. As we got to the clearing where the deer were Tasha looked towards us not sure what to do.
"Tasha, just follow your instincts, slowly and quietly make your way toward one of the does and wait for the opportune moment to pounce. Then snap the neck and sink your teeth into it." I told her
When she looked unsure of herself I added in
"Trust me its a lot easier than it sounds, just follow your instincts and you will do fine. In fact I imagine it is somewhat like hunting humans except sometimes animals give a better chase."
She just nodded and crouched down, and stalked towards a larger doe on the side of the clearing.
She stopped when she was close and waited until the animal was distracted before pouncing and following my instructions exactly. She did it like a pro and made no mess at all, I was very impressed and by the look on Edwards face so was he.
After she drained the deer completely we showed her how to burry the carcass and she decided she wanted to try some bigger game. Edward and I agreed because we wanted to hunt also so we headed towards the mountain where we caught the scents of a pride of mountain lions.
Tasha followed behind us and we allowed her to choose her prey first, after she chose the lion she wanted I picked out mine and Edward did the same. We agreed to attack at the same time, so the lions wouldn't scatter.
We all got close to the prey we chose and I waited for Edwards's signal which was a high pitched whistle.
Finally I heard the signal and I pounced, in my peripheral vision as I was flying towards my prey I saw Edward and Tasha doing the same thing.
I drained the lion and got rid of the carcass, Edward was already done and Tasha was disposing of her carcass. All in all I think everything went very well. Tasha was a natural animal hunter and hopefully she can stay that way.
We all approached each other.
"So, Tasha, what did you think?" I asked
She thought for a moment before responding
"It wasn't bad, and it almost quenches my thirst but it's not the same as human blood. Although it is much easier on the conscience to make a kill. I think I will be able to deal with this lifestyle."
I was happy to hear that.
"Well you are a natural hunter, you didn't even hesitate. It was really impressive." I told her
She looked proud and we made the short run back to the house.
We ran in the back door only to find everyone seated in the living room. We all ran in and took a seat.
I cuddled into Edward as Tasha spoke of her first hunt and how well it went. Everyone was very happy that she seemed to be adapting to this lifestyle.
Then we fell into a discussion of the things that happened before.
"I still think its amazing that a family as little as ours and a group of werewolves were able to wipeout the most powerful vampire coven in the world." Jasper said.
"Of coarse we did." Emmet yelled "We are the Cullen's!!(A.n. that's a quote.) And we kick butt."
We all looked at him and burst out laughing.
"Emmet" Edward said seriously, "you do realized we could have died don't you?"
"Duh" he said "I am too amazingly awesome to be hurt! (a.n. Another quote.)" He said cockily
I rolled my eyes and grabbed Edwards's hand he nodded and I connected to his mind.
What is it loved?
Do you think we can sneak away for some alone tie. I really want to be with you, only you!
We can certainly try.
I broke off the connection and I was about to get up from the couch when I heard my cell phone ringing in our bedroom.
Edward and I ran up there and I grabbed my phone to look and the caller I.D., it was Renee.
I answered quickly.
(A.n. sorry to interrupt but I was sure how to put the phone call so I will just put the person who's speaking name in front of what they say.)
Bella: Hi mom, how are you?
Renee: Hi, sweetheart. I'm great, actually I was calling because I miss you, and I was hoping maybe you and Edward can come down here and visit.
Bella: Well mom, it's been a little hectic lately, maybe we can come down in a couple weeks.
Renee: No! Bella you have to come now. There is someone here that says you need to come
Immediately or someone might get hurt.
I heard a commotion in the background and then someone else's voice came on the phone. A voice I thought I would never hear again. Let alone at my mothers house.
? (Guess who) Hello little Bella, surprised to hear from me again?
Bella What do you want?
? I want you to come here dear Bella, Edward too. Meet me here in 24 hours or your dear
Little mommy and step daddy wont be alive the next time you see them.
And with that comment the phone was hung up.
I looked over to Edward; he had obviously heard the whole conversation because he looked horrified.
We knew what we had to do. We have to go to Phoenix.
