Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter of Twilight.

A/N: I don't think I am going to have Bella bashing in my fan fiction but I am still unsure so you never know. I'm sorry I haven't posted in so long. I have been so busy (I hate school with a burning passion). I had some writer's block with this one so it may not be that good. Sorry in advance to those who are disappointed with it. Also, I know I should get on with the pairing that I have planned for Hermione but I am still kind of unsure about it so…. Maybe it will be in the next chapter, maybe not.

Chapter 4

"Carlisle!" Rosalie yelled uncharacteristically at the top of her lungs as the six teenagers, including Bella, walked into the home. Everyone winced at the high pitched scream just as Carlisle and Esme gracefully walked down the staircase.

"I can hear you from meters away, Rosalie. It is unnecessary to yell so loudly." Carlisle reprimanded slightly. "Now what is it?" He looked from one of his children to the other as they all seemed to be wondering how to begin.

"Well you see," Edward began, "there is a new girl in town." Before he could continue, Carlisle interrupted with a nod.

"Ah yes, I have heard. She had just moved into that newly built home near ours, according to the hospital secretaries. Now I still don't see why this is so important." Edward hesitated. He did not know what to say. At this moment, Bella blurted out,

"She's a vampire!" Everyone, except for Edward, turned to look at her with annoyed expressions before turning back to Carlisle.

"But Carlisle," Alice said, "she was different from other vampires." Carlisle looked Alice with one eyebrow perfectly arched before opening his mouth to speak.

"She was different in what way?"

"Well, she had blue eyes." Alice replied. "She also didn't smell like anything. Usually, even vampires would have a scent but she doesn't. She smells like absolutely nothing." Carlisle furrowed his eyebrows even more than before at this.

"Also, when she passed by our table during lunch, I could hear a slight throbbing or beating noise coming from her body." Jasper added. Hearing this, everyone looked at him incredulously as the teenagers had not noticed this before.

"What? Are you sure?" Carlisle inquired.

Edward was the one to respond as he had just seen the memory that had been running through Jasper's mind. "It's true."

"Wait one minute," Carlisle said, "if you heard a beating from her body, why would you still think she is a vampire?" The five younger Cullens glanced at one another before Rosalie replied,

"She looked like us, Carlisle." Carlisle paused for a moment before nodding in understanding.

"I have heard from some male coworkers who have seen her around town that she was quite good looking." At this, Emmet scoffed loudly.

"Oh please. That is the largest understatement of the century. She was HOT. At this, Rosalie slapped Emmett in the back of the head, causing the teenagers to laugh.

"Anyways," Carlisle continued sternly which caused everyone to silence, "it is obvious that this girl is not like any vampire we have ever seen before. We do not even know if she really is a vampire! She could just be a very good looking human for all we know. Therefore, I need you all to do a little investigating. See her habits, where she goes, what she does."

Esme, who had been silent for most of the time, decided to speak up. "I think we should inform the pack about our new finding and try to incorporate them into our plan." Rosalie shriveled her nose up in disgust and was about to protest when Esme gave her a stern look which quieted her.

"Good idea." Carlisle replied before quickly retrieving his phone from his bedside table at vampire speed and dialing Sam's number.

"Wait, let me get this straight," Jacob said as he and the pack looked incredulously at the Cullens who were sitting across from them in the spacious living room, "there is a new girl in town whom you think is a vampire but you're not absolutely sure if she is one?"

"Exactly." Carlisle replied, his eyebrows still in the furrowed state that they were in before.

Everyone in the pack looked to Sam as he questioned, "And how would you not know if she was a vampire or not?" The Cullens then began to explain the girl's blue eyes, non-existent scent, and the mysterious thumping noise coming from her body yet her vampire-like good looks.

"Therefore, we would very much appreciate your assistance in finding out more about this person." Carlisle stated after their explanation.

"Why should we help you?" Leah questioned in an annoyed tone, "What does this have to do with us?" At this, Alice replied,

"We do not wish to force you into doing anything you do not want to do. We just want to see if this new girl is a threat or not and the more people helping, the better."

"Yeah, come on sis! Maybe this girl has something to do with that weird person at Bella's house." Seth said enthusiastically. Leah rolled her eyes at Seth's excitement but said nothing. Sam nodded and the Cullens took this as agreement.

"Alright, we will investigate during school and follow her after school to see if she is a threat," Edward stated, referring to the Cullen teenagers, "while everyone else keeps an eye out for her in town."

"Wait, then who is going to protect me from Victoria after school?" Bella asked. The Cullens all looked to Edward, expecting him to answer. Just as he was about to tell her that he would protect her, he was interrupted.

"I'll look after you while your little boyfriend is at school." Jacob said while smirking at Edward's angry expression. Edward, who was just about to yell at Jacob and his stupid idea (at least according to Edward), he was interrupted once again by Alice.

"I think that would be a good idea." She stated while looking warily at the incredulous looking Edward. "We would need you to read the girl's thoughts when we are near her. Don't worry, Edward, Jacob will keep Bella safe. Anyways, if Victoria decides to attack, I'll always see it and we'll be one step ahead." Edward knew he had been defeated and so he simply looked out towards the window, symbolizing his compliance to the idea.

"Alright then, it's settled. Jacob, you will be with Bella after school until Edward comes." Carlisle said. "As for the rest of the pack, I think you should patrol La Push consistently just in case the girl goes to your side. Even if she is a vampire, she does not know about the treaty and she has no scent to us so it may be the same for you, meaning that you would not be able to just simply sense her on your land."

Sam nodded, "Yes I think that's a good idea. We'll have the patrol schedule planned as soon as possible. Now, about the newborns, the killing sprees in Seattle have become more frequent and large so we're guessing that Victoria's army is growing. What should we do?"

Carlisle sighed in dismay, "Since Jasper has experience with newborns, I think he should train us to prepare ourselves for the confrontation that is sure to come."

"Yes. Fighting newborns is absolutely different from fighting normal vampires. They think differently, they're stronger, faster. You all need to learn how to take a newborn and a newborn army as well."

They all silently nodded to each other before the pack exited the home, phased, and ran off into the woods. Little did they know, the person that they had been talking about before had been lurking in the trees, listening into their conversation.

Hermione had been walking in the woods yet again but in the direction opposite of the home she last came upon for fear of meeting the werewolf. Of course it was just her luck that she happened to come upon a home with the same boy and girl from last time. However, it seemed as though they were with the boy's clan as there were the other four "teenagers" and the "parents" whom she now knew to be the Cullens, thanks to Jessica. Jessica thought it would be a good idea to tell the entire life stories of Bella and the Cullens but now she was glad that she knew more about them. She hated being ill-informed.

Hermione felt nothing but rage when she listened to the voices that were speaking in the home in front of her. They were talking about her! Even going as far as to say that they would spy on her in order to find out more about her! Who do they think they are, Hermione thought incredulously to herself. How would they feel if people began to pry into their business? At that moment, the group had begun talking about the factors that made them question her vampirism such as her blue eyes, non-existent smell, and the mysterious thumping emitting from her body. The last one had surprised her in the first few weeks as a vampire. She had noticed this very quiet beating noise and had freaked out, thinking that it was her heart and that she was still alive. However, upon closer inspection, she felt a faint vibration every single time a thump occurred, the same vibration she felt whenever she used magic. That was when she realized that the thumping was in fact her magic beating within her body.

Hermione was awakened from her reverie when the mother of the group, Esme, suggested that they invite the "pack" into the plan. Who is the pack? Hermione questioned. Her inquiry was soon answered when a few minutes after Carlisle's phone call, a large pack of wolves reaching the size of horses burst into the driveway of the home. Werewolves! There are more than one, Hermione cursed to herself as she began to back away silently, however, something stopped her in her tracks. The eight wolves that had just been standing a few feet away from her were replaces with seven men and one woman, all equally naked. They all seemed unfazed by their nudeness and leisurely put on the clothes wrapped around their legs. Hermione knew that if she were capable, she would be as red as a tomato at that moment. They were all extremely good looking and tall, even the girl, who was the shortest, probably reached 5'11". They're shape shifters. Hermione was unsure of how to feel about this knowing that wolf shape shifters, an enemy of the vampires, would be able to change into their strongest form at any given time.

Once the shifters entered through the doors, they all began speaking of Hermione again. However, a couple minutes later, a new name came up. Victoria. Hermione began to listen more closely as they spoke of protecting the muggle, Bella, from this Victoria girl. A wolf named Jacob had volunteered to protect her and Hermione could practically feel the tension between Edward and the boy. Then, Alice agreed to the idea, much to Hermione's surprise, saying that Edward was needed to read her thoughts. It was then that she realized that that was his ability. I have to strengthen my occlumency walls around him, Hermione thought to herself. Suddenly, one of the wolves spoke, "Now, about the newborns, the killing sprees in Seattle have become more frequent and large so we're guessing that Victoria's army is growing."

This woman is creating an army of newborn vampires. Thirsty, rapid newborn vampires who are killing innocents. Hermione could feel the rage coming back to her and she began walking away with two goals in mind. First, convince the group that she is a normal human, and second, find out more about them. Hermione was determined and a determined Hermione is always a successful Hermione.
