In just under 2 weeks our whole house was filled with vampires, from different parts of the world. The majority of them had the crimson eyes that Momma had when she first woke, although her eyes where now a dark golden colour now. Jacob and I would sit in the corner of the room most days watching all of them talk, he told me that there had been a lot of kids becoming a part of the pack, because there where so many of this kind around. The only time I was needed was when a new guest came and I needed to tell my story, Jacob would hover behind me nervous that some of these vampires where a danger. Most nights we Momma, Daddy and I would go back to the cottage. Daddy said it was more peaceful there because he couldn't hear everyone's thoughts. Jacob would sleep outside my window to at night, to be honest I was glad I hadn't felt truly safe without him around lately. As Christmas neared Jacob decided he would take me to La Push. We spent the day there at his dads house and down at the beach he even took me cliff jumping but it came with a warning.

Don't think about this around your dad.

I laughed as we jumped into the cold water. When we got home Momma told me that we would be going to grandpa's house tomorrow. She also told me it was Christmas tomorrow.

What's Christmas?

It's a holiday we celebrate with our family and often get gifts given to us sweetheart.

The next morning when I woke Momma, Daddy and Jacob where sitting on the lounges in our cottage. I sat down and opened my presents as they all smiled and watched me. From my Jacob I got a woven bracelet with a wolf figurine on it. From Momma I got a necklace with a picture of herself and me inside, there was words on it as well 'plus que ma vie' it read.

It means more than my own heart that is how much I love you.

I put it on straight away as I opened my last gift from Daddy. He got me and Mp3 player with all of his favourite pieces of music on it.

I saw you took a liking to my music, I thought you should have some music for yourself.

Once we had gotten ready, we all made our way to Grandpa's house, I was excited as I hadn't seen him in 2 weeks! Momma said that he'd be surprised about my growth but not to go too much into the details of my development. To my surprise sue, Seth and Leah where there as well. Grandpa's face lit up with a smile.

Nessie! It's been 2 weeks since I've seen you, too long. Look at how much you've grown

That was when Seth pulled me out of his arms and spun me in a circle but Charlie still spoke.

No seriously, I swear she's grown 2 feet...

So Ness how's it going?

Seth was my favourite wolf-person apart from my Jacob. He never made it awkward. Jacob came over just as Sue announced lunch was ready. I was getting better at eating human food without needing to go to the toilet straight after. But I still preferred blood; although now all of the O- was gone I was forced to go hunting. There wasn't much food left anyway by the time Jacob, Leah and Seth got their food. The time that we were there flew by and as we made our way back to the car it started to snow. All of us knew what that meant the snow would be sticking to the ground in a few days, Alice had been correct about her estimation. The trip back home was silent, but we all knew something was wrong as we drove into the driveway.

Take Renesmee around the back Jacob, Zafrina will look after her, Bella come with me love.

I smile widely. Zafrina was one of our guests that had arrived a few days ago, she came from the Amazon with her accomplice, Kachiri. Most of my time was spent with Zafrina if I wasn't with my family who had all arrived back 2 days ago, I'd been happy to see them, but Alice and Jasper hadn't returned. Zafrina had a power that could force you to see anything she wanted you to see; often she'd show me the rainforest and the wonderful scenery that was there, it felt like I was actually there. When I rounded the corner I ran straight to her.

Hello my maliit Na bata how was your day?

I rarely spoke to Zafrina instead I place my images in her mind. It was fun I got to see my grandpa, he was curious about how much I've grown. What is going on inside?

Ahh well we have some new guests, although they do seem quite unwelcomed.

In a flash Momma was next to me and took me from Zafrina.

Is everything okay Momma?

Everything is fine just new people; they don't need to see you though.

Why?

Honestly I don't know, Now Zafrina can we practice?

Of course.

Momma had found out she had a gift, a mental shield. Which blocked out any gifts which could protect someone more than herself if she could push it off her mind. She'd been making progress when I was watching her the other day she protected Daddy from Kate's electric shock. Today she wasn't doing so well and couldn't keep her shield projected.

Maybe you need a little motivation, Rensemee go to your mother.

I skipped over to Momma's side and she picked me up and moved me to her back.

No Zafrina

Oh come on Bella, Let's do a little experiment.

A small crowd was gathering to watch .

I'm going to blind all of you raise your hand when you get your sight back. Three...two...one.

Everyone sitting down shivered and it looked like they had lost their sight. Around Momma and I there was a thin film of a see-through substance. Momma's shield was working.

Now push your shield out Bella, make it cover more people.

The thin film stretched and more and more people put their hands up. She was near the end when it snapped back. For a second the absence of sight was all I could comprehend, everything was black. I shuddered against her back.

Zafrina!

Momma closed her eyes and pushed out her shield again to include me, I saw Zafrina smile just before Daddy stepped in front of us.

Zafrina, she's still a newborn. It's best not to push her like this.

No it's fine Edward I need to practice we only have a short time. Again Zafrina.

Daddy took me and we watched Momma practice until late that night when daddy interjected as I was falling to sleep in his arms.

Bella love, Renesmee needs to sleep, let's go home.

Daddy carried me home as Momma and he ran full out. I dozed off as they both laid me down in the bed, knowing this may be my last time sleeping in it.
