Disclamier: Curse the gods who gave Edward to Meyer and not me

AN: Nother chapter, btw, italicsppl thoughts. Just thought i'd clear that up :D.

The minute I am free I pounce on Edward

The minute I am free I pounce on Edward.

"Bella," Edward buries his nose in my hair.

"So?" I ask, still hugging him

"If possible, you smell even better than ever,"

And then Edward kisses me deeply. He is unhesitant and explores me without worry. My heart doesn't flutter anymore for Edward's touch but he still leaves me tingling. When we break the family is staring at us, rather uncomfortably. It is Emmett who breaks the silence.

"I didn't know you had it in you bro,"

"Me neither," admits Edward, sheepishly

Once again I hug Edward. It's not the same. Before when I hugged him I used to feel protected and safe from everything, even worries. He was my castle and I was the maiden in distress. Now I know I am the stronger one (for now) even if I am still shorter than he is. This makes us near equal, no longer will Edward's arms and body be a shied. But then again, I think as I flex my arm and feel the muscles under my granite skin; I no longer have any worries, being like this.

Then I think about Jacob (An: I'm so sorry to all the Jacob hating fans, me included) and my parents and I cringe.

"What is it dear?" Edward purrs

"Nothing, just getting used to my body," I lie.

Obviously being turned into a vampire hasn't helped my lying skills, because Edward looks at me strangely, but I ignore him. I have to change the topic, fast.

"Could I see a mirror?" I ask

"Of course," Edward says, taking me by the hip with his not-so-strong arm and gliding me out of the room. The family follows behind us. As we walk up the stairs to the biggest mirror in the house (Which is in Rosalie's room, surprise, surprise) I start to notice the newly found powers I have. I notice every little detail around me, and can take it all in at once, then process it. I catch even the freckle in each of Alice's eyes as I spin my head around once. I also hear everything with clarity like nothing before. A spider scuttling behind the wall is loud for my ears. The way I can tell it's a spider because I can hear its eight legs moving. But best of all is my newly gained balance. My body feels so sure of itself and where it's going and what it needs to do. Just knowing that I could put the most graceful ballerina to shame is one of the best feelings in the world. No more tripping for me!

Before we reach the top of the stairs, something catches my eye. A thin piece of hair falls from Esme. On instinct, quick as a flash, I spin out of Edward's hold and leap off the top stair. It feels almost like flying as I rush towards the bottom. Shapes blur pass, yet never hitting me. In less than a second I am at the bottom step and snatch the piece of hair before it falls to the floor and stand up straight.

Once I realize what I have caught I blush. (Although I have no way of knowing if it showed). Emmett and Jasper think it's a hilarious joke and clench their sides from laughing so hard. Alice isn't frazzled at all. Probably she already saw this coming. Rosalie desperately tries to hide a smile, but fails. Esme looks like a scolding mother chicken, and Edward and Carlisle glare at the amused.

Edward looks so furious that I wish I could read his mind.

I will get them later for what they are putting Bella through.

"Who said that?" I said, looking around at the blank faces.

"Said what Bella?" asks Carlisle, concerned.

Oh dear, I hope we don't have another vampire with crazy powers.

"I don't have crazy powers!" I start to defend myself.

Edward and Carlisle share a look.

"Bella, honey, I think you can read minds," Edward cooed to me, like I was terminally ill.

"Oh but I CAN'T!" I don't know why I'm so opposed to this, I just am.

"Let's have a test," suggests Alice.

"Great idea, Bella try to read my mind," Edward says.

Reluctantly I agreed.

Bella, please be reasonable about this and accept the fact that you can read minds. Most teenage girls would be ecstatic about this fact. Just think how lucky you are, you can finally know everything I'm feeling.

I gasped,

"It's true, oh it's true! I can read minds," I started to cry.

Instantly my mood changed, I got deliriously calm and passive.

No! I don't want to be calm.

I thought, getting angrier by the second. I got so angry that I couldn't contain it anymore and it felt like my feelings were spilling out of me. Suddenly a fight broke out between Alice and Jasper.

"God Jasper, why are you making us so angry?" screamed Alice.

"I'm NOT!" growled Jasper.

"Then who do you suggest is!?"

All eyes turned to me.

I got very nervous and ran to be comforted by Edward. But he looked just as nervous as I. So did everyone else for that matter…

"Oh no!" I moaned, "This is me too,"

"How many powers do you have?" Rosalie asked, with a hint of jealously

"I don't know," I cried, hiding my face in Edward's chest.

"Same old Bella," sighed Alice.

"Okay everyone meeting in the dining room, NOW!" Carlisle ordered.

We all raced to the dining room. I won, in around 20 milliseconds. Once everyone had seated in our regular chairs, with Carlisle at the front and me beside Edward, the meeting started.

"Now, there is a new member of our vampire family joining us today and there are a few questions that need to be answered. The first thing is, why isn't Bella a crazy blood-thirsty monster right now?" Carlisle began.

"I can answer that," said Alice, who had that look she gets after a trance. "I saw us figuring it out weeks in the future. The reason that Bella isn't attacking anything with blood right now is because as a human she had an aversion to it. In other words, she was scared and disliked it them, and as a vampire everything is magnified, so now she just plain hates it,"

Everyone nodded in agreement, including me. It seemed like a plausible explanation, especially to myself.

"Okay, next question," continues Carlisle, "How is Bella getting all of these powers?"

"I think I can answer that," said Jasper spoke, barley audible (to a human) "Someone I knew, a long time ago, can do the same thing Bella is doing. To explain is better it's like what Carlisle said, how is she getting these powers. I believe she is stealing them from us,"

More than just me gasped.

"It sounds worse than it is. Bella merely can have our powers like we use them normally. I don't think it does anything to us. I also think that Bella can turn them on and off too, which is why she didn't realize she had them at first. But the real question here, is if Bella can keep the power once she has it, or she has to be near us to use them."

"Are you sure about this?" asked Carlisle.

"Can It even be done?" Edward was sceptical, I wanted to know why.

She is more powerful than any of us realized.

I frowned, Edward was actually worried.

"Oh yes, it can be done," answered Jasper, "The vampire I knew could take on other vampire's powers like they were his own. Although he had to actually see the person to do so. I thought it was very interesting at the time, like a chameleon changing colour to match his surroundings,"

"Actually, chameleons change colour according to their mood, not their surroundings," I piped in.

Jasper frowned at me, obviously now wasn't the time.

"This is amazing Bella, just think of all you could do," chirped Esme, trying to lighten to mood unsuccessfully.

"Yes, think of all she could do," Carlisle said, his face was solemn.

"No way! Bella isn't going to turn into an evil dictator like that mysterious NWP on the news, I know her better than that," Edward shouted.

I seriously hoped he was right.
