Chapter 17 How we came to be
Edward's POV
What just happened? I look back to the events that happened just mere seconds ago. Bella and I had been talking for who knows how long but time had ended all to soon. She got up first but somehow had tripped over her left foot causing her to loose her balance and fall on me. She had both of her small hands on my chest her dark hair falling around her face and tickling my own. My hands securely on her waist the whole time, not wanting to let her go. She slowly lowered her head to mine and all I could think of was, she was about to kiss me. I tilted my head up to meet her lips with my own bringing one of my hands to cup the side of her face. I could feel this electricity all around us; our lips were so close so very close until I heard. "Hey Edward! Bella! Everyone is looking for you two!" Emmett said fallowed by his appearance at the edge of the meadow. Bella opened her eyes in shock and embarrassment and jumped away from me and ran out of the meadow lightning speed. I stood were I was, to shocked to move a muscle.
That's were I am now. On the floor of the meadow alone, well Emmett still stood were he was. Emmett. I'm going to kill him. It was like Emmett sensed were my thoughts were leading to because when I jumped off the floor Emmett took off on a run most likely to the house. I ran after him and in no time I had him pinned on the floor. Emmett growled at me and I hissed back showing my teeth.
"What the hell man?" he said pushing me off of him and my head hit the base of a near by tree.
"I don't know. Sorry for going off on you its just- " I couldn't explain it to Emmett. He would laugh at me. My hand knotted in my hair trying to explain to him in some way.
"Look Edward I know you love Bella. Well I didn't know for sure before but after what just happened right now in that meadow I am absolutely sure you have found the mate of your dreams" He laughed and chucked a small piece of wood at me. "and I think she found hers."
"Do you really think I have a shot with her?" I asked uncertain.
"Of course you do. I know the others must think this a lot but you've been alone for to long, you deserve to be happy."
"Is it really that obvious that I love Bella?" I said remembering having a similar conversation with Gale.
He threw his head back and laughed. "Yeah…. it… is." He said through is laughter. I had to join in on it to. It felt good just to laugh it all off, I've been to stressed out about everything and to just laugh with Emmett it felt like a breath of fresh air. Once we had the laughter out of us Emmett added in a more serious tone.
"Well everyone's been to busy with all this fairy shit and all so they haven't realized this whole situation but in time they will so I say you get your ass off the floor and make Bella yours." We both got up and walked in the direction of the house in a comfortable silence. Every once and a while we would joke around but I asked him once we were close to the house. "Why are you being so helpful to me?" I asked truly curious.
He shrugged his shoulders and answered, "You're my brother and as your brother I can't let you go another year being a virgin." He ran in the house before I could get him. I sighed and walked in.
Everyone was in the living room talking among themselves. I went to go sit with Esme. I tried to make eye contact with Bella but she kept her head down or was looking away from me.
"Where were you two?" Esme said looking between Bella and me. Bella raised her head and looked at me for a split second before looking at Gale.
"Edward was just showing Bella around and they lost tract of time." Emmett said dismissing the subject. Bella smiled at him and I sighed in relief. Sometimes you just got to love having a brother like Emmett.
Alice's POV
"Edward was just showing Bella around and they lost tract of time." Emmett said before Edward could say anything. Everyone seemed to believe him. But not me. I wanted to ask him were he really took Bella but now was not the time. I was still really nervous about why they came here in the first place.
"Now that we are all here you could let us know what you wanted to say." Carlisle said getting back to business. Gale looked at Bella and she nodded her head. Gale turned back to us with his peculiar green eyes and hair so dark it would match with the darkness of the outdoors.
"We wanted to speak to you about some things we are not yet in the know about." He said matching Carlisle's tone of voice. "When Jane and Felix Volturi came here do you know why? Or did they mention something before Bella got there?" Memories flooded my head of that night they came and asked us to join them in battle. Battle against fairies.
"We have wanted to speak about this to." Carlisle paused for a moment collecting his thoughts. "When they first came here Jane said she was delivering a message to every vampire saying we are going into war soon. Battle against the fairy kind. You probably know about this and could- "
Bella immediately popped in to the conversation with a powerful voice I have never heard her use.
"War? We don't know about any war going on." Bella looked worried at her coven as they stared right back with the same urgency in their expressions. That left us dumbfounded. We had thought they would know about this considering how ready and urgent the Volturi are getting. Which brought back more questions like, why are they here in the first place? Why does the Volturi want them gone for good?
"We thought you would have known. We thought that was why you were so against us knowing who you really were."
"You thought wrong." Was all Gale said. We fell silent until Bella said something to Gale and the rest. "They deserve to know all of the truth now. It's the only way." She said. They looked pained but nodded their heads and turned to look at us again.
In the next 20 or so minutes the Brandon's took turns explaining why they came here, where they're from, the leaders, but they never mentioned why we are having this war in the first place.
"Thank you so much for telling us all this, it truly is fascinating but do you know why the Volturi want to have this war with you're kind." Because it's not my kind anymore, I reminded myself.
"Do you know how the race, vampire, was created? Not just that race but werewolves and so many other creatures that you have never heard before?" Bella said looking at each one of us.
"No one knows who created the first vampire not even human's know who created man kind they have speculations and beliefs but no one is 100 percent sure." Carlisle has always studied and pondered on who and why someone would create a vampire. The oldest vampires known to still be alive is the Romanian coven, no one knows exactly how old they are.
"You are wrong again Carlisle. Fairies are the oldest and first to ever step foot in this world and many others. We are older then vampires and even humans. We, fairies, created all the different types of creatures. We did not create the human race though but we certainly created vampires, werewolves, mermaids, trolls, leprechauns and many other creatures that lurk around this world and many others."
Rosalie got up and was in front of Bella in a second yelling at her. "You, fairies created vampires? Why! Why would you create a monster? A thing that shouldn't even be real!"
Gale got up just as fast and threw Rosalie off of Bella; you could feel the anger coming off of him in waves. Jasper winced softly holding onto my hand tighter.
"Yes, we created you vampires but you're the ones that made yourselves who you are today, a bunch of filthy blood suckers. Creating you was the biggest mistake we've ever made." Jacinda grabbed Gale's hand asking him to sit down again.
"How is it possible to create another supernatural race? Who created the fairies? Why did you do what you did? Why doesn't any other vampire know about this?" Carlisle shot question after question at them. We just hoped that they would answer.
"Okay I'll try to answer your questions but you have to be patient and don't interrupt. The best way to do this is to tell you our history." We nodded and listened to, probably the coolest story ever, and the best part is, its all true.
"We were created by nature itself, that's why we have the gifts that we do. We live in the world of Zenonia. It is very peaceful place to be and we were all really happy. Some fairies decided they wanted to explore the world outside of Zenonia. People thought they were crazy their words were, "there is nothing out there worth looking. We are the only living things in the universes." They were half right. This group of fairies ignored the people of Zenonia and went anyways. When they came back they said we were right, there wasn't any other types of people or living creatures but they said some of the worlds they discovered have potential.
For thousands and thousands of years we have designed, planned and tested all different types of creatures. It is fairy secret on how they exactly did this but they were successful. We created smart creatures of the sea like mermaids and wassermann. We made creatures of the air as in dragons. People of the earth and forest; leprechauns, pixies, and trolls. Creatures that helped us and defended us were the werewolves. They didn't live in Zenonia though we sent them to earth, one of the places the fairies discovered. They lived together peacefully and respected us as their creator. This went on for many, many years until human kind was created.
We had to act fast because we knew that humans could destroy, change and use the creatures that we had taken years to make and love with our hearts. We sent every fairy to earth to spread the news that we had to go into hiding. The people of Zenonia left their homes to help the creatures get use to there new "neighbors". Water fairies lived in the sea and helped mermaids, Wassermann, and golden fire seals stay away from the eyes of human kind. Earth fairies lived with the trolls, pixies and leprechauns. Same with the fairies of fire and air.
Every day life was getting more difficult until the fairies decided to create a creature that is strong, fast, smart and has gifts of their own but most importantly it looked human and could live amongst the humans."
"Those are the vampires, right?" Jasper asked. She gave a small smile and continued.
"But no creature is perfect. Something went wrong while in the process of creating the vampire. We thought it wouldn't affect them but it did. When the process was complete the vampire was perfect. It was everything we had hoped for but while checking it out one day we realized how he had no heart beat. We franticly tried to figure out the problem or try to bring the heart back to life but nothing happened. The vampire seemed to be unaffected by the loss of heart. Then we got into how we could make more vampires; since they were technically dead they couldn't reproduce so there had to be some other way. We created our vampire not to drink blood, which is ironic because now that's all you care about. It would eat small animals and some berries. One thing we were really worried about was it would freak out and run away from humans. It was the sole purpose of creating it and it couldn't even stand being around humans. We couldn't understand why it was acting the way it was but we kept trying. One day he didn't eat and we decided to take it to see some people. It attacked a young boy. It took four of us to take the vampire and the dead boy away from the scene before someone could notice. The vampire's eyes turned bright red. Two days passed and we still didn't know what to do with the boy's body. While checking on him he woke up. He was much more active and excited then the first vampire was. We eventually figured out how the first vampire turned the boy into a vampire. Year after year it got harder to handle the two vampires. They didn't like to eat what they use to eat. They only wanted blood.
The human race has been going strong and the two vampires slipped out of our grasped a lot and attacked some humans for their blood. The vampire's population was getting to big for fairies to handle. The other creatures hated the two vampires and would fight when we wouldn't be watching. The creatures were getting use to hiding from humans and adapted to what they have to work with. Our job was done and we could go back to Zenonia but we had one problem: the vampires. We didn't even know how many had been turned. We decided to leave the vampires back on earth and they could find their own way. Since then fairies have thought of the vampire as an evil, disgusting creature that should have been destroyed when given the chance."
We were all speechless. Our whole history was just said and done and we didn't know what to do or say about it.
"You were there when all this happened?" Jasper asked after a few minutes of silence.
They all laughed while Bella said trying to hide her laughter. "No but the story gets handed down after every generation."
"That is so fascinating but how does this have to do with the Volturi?" Carlisle asked.
"Without the fairies you wouldn't have life itself. If you killed every water fairy for example you wouldn't have water, it would just disappear off the face of the earth. And if a vampire drinks the blood of a fairy it will become indestructible, a super vampire you may say."
Wait what?
How did you guys like the story? It took me a while to figure out how I was going to do it but I think I turned out pretty good! Tell me what you think in a review! And I'll try for next weekend. Sorry again.
