A/N: Sorry for the delay! I have been so busy lately and I had a bad case of Writer's Block. Bleh… anyway, I hope you enjoy this next chapter! :) Remember to review.

DISCLAIMER: Once again, its Stephenie Meyer's, not mine.

Eleazor's Evaluation:

Weeks past and as Viola came to know Seth, she felt connected to him more than any of the Cullen's or anyone for that matter. Connected, that was a good word for it. It was like they were like a circuit, working more properly with each other. Soon it was the day Eleazor, a vampire who sensed powers or at least that was what Viola came to understand, planned to come to the Cullen's.

Everyone was anxious about Eleazor's assessment of Viola, even she was. Seth was, of course, over with Jacob, and they agreed to see what the judgment would be. Seth more so than Jacob, Seth always seemed quite protective of Viola, though she couldn't understand why.

"Vee," Seth said, using his new nickname for her. She smiled, thinking about how much she liked being welcome. Then Seth's heart stuttered like it always did when she smiled. Viola wasn't an idiot nor was she a ditz, so she knew some part of Seth really liked her though she couldn't think why. In an odd way, Viola felt the same way.

"Viola?" he called, pulling her out of her trance. "Ahem."

"Oh! Sorry! Zoned out for second. Sorry," Viola responded. Seth grinned and if her undead heart could flutter, it would have.

"Don't worry about it. You just looked a bit… serene, I guess," Seth said. "Thinking about something, are we?"

"Yeah, sorry. Just a bit nervous about meeting another… vampire."

She gave him a weak, pathetic smile. Seth chortled, "I wouldn't fret, and practically everyone likes you. And hey, what's not to like? You are probably the friendliest person I have ever met."

Viola grinned. "Haven't you met yourself?"

Seth blushed and said, "You flatter me."

Viola punched playfully, making sure she didn't hit too hard. Alice walked into the kitchen, where the pair had been sitting, with Jasper at her side.

"He's here," Alice sang and gestured for them to follow her. Viola looked at Seth worriedly, and in return, he flashed her encouraging smile before following Alice and Jasper to the living room. Sighing, Viola sauntered after them.

In the living room, all the Cullen's were present along with Jacob and Seth… and another man. He was beautiful like all vampire's were and as he looked up, Viola noticed he had the same golden eyes as the Cullen's had. Viola let out a breath of relief. At least Eleazor wasn't a killer… or wasn't a man killer.

Eleazor examined her for a moment, looking her up and down. For a few agonizingly long minutes, it was silent and seemed no one would ever speak. But as Viola began to panic, Eleazor spoke, "Show me your power."

Viola nodded then made a silver spoon that sat on the coffee table spring up and fly into her waiting hand. Eleazor said nothing, though his expression was impressed, shocked, and filled with wonder. Again minutes past by before he spoke again.

"Hmm… I've never seen anything like this. Sure, I've seen levitators—people who can lift objects with their mind—but you…" he trailed off, pointing his finger at her. "Your power is different… It's like your making the air move around you, you are not particularly connected to the object you are moving but the air around it. It's almost as if you are creating your own… tornado of sorts. Like wind… but more powerful. I'm sure there is more to it but that's all I can figure from it… Perhaps you can move people as well… Could you try to move my arm?"

Everyone's eyebrows shot up, wearing the same dubious looks. Viola nodded in answer to the vampire's question. Focusing harder than she ever thought she could, she thought of moving his arm, and with all her minds strength, Eleazor's arm suddenly moved from in front of his body to his side.

The room was silent, there eyes trained on Viola with looks of wonder and incredulity.

"How—" Emmett started to say.

"That was amazing!" Nessie cheered happily, beaming at Viola.

Viola was still blinking in shock; she still couldn't believe her eyes.

Eleazor smiled. "This could be one of the more powerful abilities… I'm absolutely amazed! When Carlisle called I thought it would be just another levitator, but no, this beyond levitating. You could probably make someone unable to move or make them do something you want… remarkable! Simply remarkable!"

Viola nodded, still uncertain. What would happen to her if she had such a powerful gift? Would she loose control? What if she was never meant to have such power and what if she couldn't stop herself from doing something horrible? Millions of unanswerable questions filled her head.

Edward stepped towards her and said, "Don't worry, Viola. If anyone should have such a great power, I am extremely glad that it is you. You would never abuse it."

"I wish I could believe you… but I…" her thoughts trailed off into a darker section of her brain. Memories of her human life flashed before her eyes as all her most horrible recollections resurfaced. She was sure that her eyes had gone misty and faraway and her features were arranged in a slight frown, but she had no time to think of that… Her mind was lost in her gruesome memoirs and as she met her boiling point, she let out a soft scream.

Edward stared at her with shock and sadness. He had not known until that moment, Viola had hidden her secrets well. She nearly fell before Seth caught her, his eyes worried, but everything seemed to go in slow motion. Seth led her to the couch and sat her down as the Cullen's gathered.

"Are you okay, sweetheart?" Esme asked in her most maternal tone.

Viola blinked a few times before hesitantly nodding, putting her head in her hands.

"Viola, I think there is something you need to tell us," this time it was Edward's voice who spoke.

Viola lifted her head from her hands and looked straight in Edward's eyes and saw good intention but most of all sadness. She nodded then took a deep breath.

"When I was human," she began, "my father abused me… not in any female like way but he hit me and my mother a lot… mostly when he was drinking. No, wait, that's a lie, he hit us even if he was sober. But anyway… that day you found me was one of his game days. He was sober, and as sick and twisted as usual, and he would let me and my mother run in our backyard. We were supposed to runaway from him otherwise he'd smack us or something, kind of like tag, but…"

Viola felt her heart wrench before she went on, this time letting the words spill out of her mouth. "But my mother didn't want to play and you see, sh-she was s-so tired. Tired of being tr-treated like a bloody d-d-dog, tired of just being… so she stopped… a-and k-k-killed herself with a shard of glass that was l-l-lying on the ground… I guess I panicked… and of course, I angry, so… I ran at the cruel man, but he swung a bat to my head…"

She took another deep breath then continued, "I was running on adrenaline then and I hardly noticed the pain… so I smacked him the back of the head, jumped the fence and ran way… a-a-although I think I broke my ankle landing on the other side of the fence… then Jake found me…"

Everyone again stared at her but this time it was out of sorrow not awe. Esme set a comforting arm around Viola's shoulder and said softly, "I'm so sorry, my dear."

"Seth, man, calm down," Jake said suddenly. Viola's head snapped to see both Jake and Seth walk quickly out the door. She also caught a glimpse of Seth as he walked out; he was shaking violent, heaving large amounts of breath, with his beautiful face twisted in rage.

A/N: A bit of a cliffhanger, I know. Reviews would be nice!
