Chapter 18 Fights lead to forgiveness
Nina's POV
Our whole history, our heritage has just been said to a coven of vampires. Do I feel good? No. I feel exposed, venerable. Would I take it back? Would I take everything that has happened in the last few weeks? Without hesitation. But I have to trust that everything will turn out okay, and that we wont have any more surprises thrown at us.
Carlisle, Esme, Rosalie and Emmett went "hunting". It still disgusted me how a creature could live on blood alone. Those poor animals. Jasper and Peter were talking among themselves in the living room, something about wars in the past or whatever. Jacinda, Bella and Edward were laughing and talking together in the kitchen. I silently walked out the front door and looked out at the forest in front of me.
The sun was out, bringing warmth and light to were I stood. The trees and grass swayed as the cool breeze past through .I could hear the birds chirping in the trees and flying above me, gracefully. Flying. It reminded me of Zenonia, a place where I didn't have to hide my wings. A place where we are all equals and could be our true selves.
I was so lost in thought I didn't realize I wasn't alone outside the Cullen's home. Alice was standing a little off to the left, almost completely invisible by the greenery around her. She was wearing light colored skinny jeans with a hot pink halter-top.
"Everyone is inside." I whispered looking away from her to the forest beyond. She walked closer to me but still kept her distance a couple of feet away.
"I wanted to talk." She said keeping to were she was. "Alone." She added. I turned back to look at her. There was something in her voice that meant trouble but I dismissed the thought.
"Okay, talk." I crossed my arms over my shoulders. She was much smaller then Bella but not by much. Her hair, instead of it being long and straight was now cropped short in spikes everywhere. Her eyes and skin tone were so different it still amazed me how her change into a vampire could have changed her so. Her skin wasn't really tan but a little darker then me and Bella. Her eyes use to be a grey hazel color but she has none of those things now, she is a cold creature like the rest of them.
"Why do you hate me, Nina? Just because I'm a vampire doesn't mean I'm not the same person."
"Because you're a vampire means everything! Just being around you puts me in danger, my whole family- "
"I'm part of that family!" She said cutting me off mid sentence.
"No your not. You're a Cullen now! Creatures like you don't disserve to be around us. Were you not listening to what we told you a few hours ago? Were you to busy thinking of the next animal you'll be sucking the life out of? You're not even alive, Alice." During all of this we had moved closer to each other and were now standing face to face.
"Would you rather if I was completely dead? You don't care about me at all! None of you will tell me anything about what I use to be or what gifts I had or our parents. You gave up on me. Would you do that to Bella? No. You would keep fighting for her but I guess I'm not worth the risk."
Something inside just snapped at her words and I wasn't in control of my body. I attacked.
My body moved swiftly as a cat as I tackled Alice to the ground. I dug the heel of my shoe in her rib. Alice used her nails to dig in my leg almost causing the skin to break. I used my invisibility and got off her and ran up the closest tree and looked down at my prey, Alice.
Alice got up fast and looked around in confusion. I jumped off the tree turning back to my visible form and pushed Alice to the ground again, her face in mud and grass stains. Since Bella didn't have her shield around me Alice could easily use her gift making the fight even. She used her arms to grab my shoulders roughly and flipped me away from her. My head hit the cold boulders making me loose my focus giving her enough time to grab me by the legs and swing me into a tree.
This went on for another 10 minutes. We were releasing out anger, and energy on each other and it soon caught the attention of Bella.
She cussed under her breath and grabbed a fist full of Alice's hair yanking back. Alice whimpered and Bella released her when she stopped struggling. She fell to the ground with a thump panting and had her hand across her dead heart. My eyes slowly went back to their bright tan color and Alice to there gold ones.
"What the hell is wrong with you!" Bella hissed at me helping me off the ground. "Jasper could have came out here and would have killed you. Are you trying to make this harder for the rest of us?" I flinched at her words. I felt stupid and immature for having attacked Alice the way I did.
"I'm sorry Bella." I tapped my temple letting her know it was okay to read my mind. I thought about every that had happened since I found out Alice was out sister. The shock, confusion, anger, sadness and most of all the guilt that I have been building up inside me from the last few weeks.
Bella gasped and looked at me with sad eyes. "Is this true? Do you really feel like that? I- I didn't know." She stuttered looking down at the ground. I pulled her small shoulders against me and hugged her with all I had. I felt her snake her hands around my neck hugging me just as tight.
"Next time talk to me, don't keep it bottled up inside." She whispered in my ear before stepping back away from me and smiled at Alice who was obviously confused.
"Sorry I pulled your hair, Alice. I think the three of us need to talk some things out." She said raising her eyebrows and looking at us.
"I'm truly sorry for attacking you Alice. Can you forgive me?" I said sincerely.
"Of course, Nina. And its okay Bella you were just trying to break the fight. But I still want my questions answered." She crossed her arms with a serious look on her face. Bella smiled and covered her mouth trying to disguise the giggles.
"First off I don't hate you, Alice I never have I never will." Bella cut me off saying, "That goes for me to, we both love you still."
"You have a really funny way of showing it." Alice mumbled.
"We might, but we still love you. You have to give me and Bella time to get use to… to the new you. You heard what Bella said and we can't just magically befriend vampires like nothing. Being around your kind is dangerous but you're my sister and I wont leave you behind again.
The reason I have been treating you so lowly was because I was putting all my frustration, anger and… guilt and throwing it at you. The thing is… I feel like it is my fault that you got turned into a vampire, my fault for everything that has happened to you. I'm your older sister and I didn't do my job to protect you. And I'm sorry I took it out on you and your family." It felt good to get it out in the open but know I was scared Alice would hate me but I was shocked when her arms rapped around me in an embrace. I hugged her back.
"You're forgiven. And it wasn't your fault, Nina. I'm just glad I have part of my old life back."
All three of us Bella, Nina, and me hugged and laughed together. I have my sister back.
Bella's POV
After that whole sister thing that happened outside was over we all walked back into the house to find Carlisle, Esme, Rosalie, and Emmett back from feeding. They still carried a light scent of blood and forest but all seemed well. Peter, Emmett and Jasper were getting alone and I was happy that Nina seemed to talk and is more comfortable around the Cullen's. Jacinda and Esme were speaking silently to each other over by the window. Alice went to join Jasper and the rest in the living room. The only people that weren't talking were Gale, Edward and me. I knew getting Gale to soften up to the Cullen's was going to be hard but I was running out of options. With Edward I was still hazy about was exactly happened in the meadow and I was afraid to find out.
I think we should be leaving soon, Bella. Gale's thought to me. Even through his mind I knew he was rigid and wanted to leave. I sighed in frustration but gave in.
We all walked out side and started to say bye to each other.
"Thank you for coming and telling us such a story. You're welcome here any time." Carlisle said. Edward has been watching me since we've gotten back and I've tried to ignore him as much as possible but I finally gave in and smiled a little at him awkwardly.
"Thank you Carlisle." I turned back to my family. We slowly made our way away from the beautiful almost glass like house until a voice broke through the air and made me freeze were I was.
"I never thought I'd see the day Bella would hang out with vampires." Said a voice I knew all to well. I stood still as stone; I think I even stopped breathing for a while. I turned around swiftly my eyes scanning him up and down. Yup, that was him, in the flesh. Like I didn't have enough problems already. I walked up to him and greeted him with a small smile.
"Jacob."
I hoped you liked it! Please review :)
