Last Time:
She repeated it one last time, her voice fading to a whisper.
"Hello." I heard Bella's voice. My eyes snapped open. It had worked! In front of Bella stood a tall woman. You could tell she was Aro's sister, all though a lot better looking. Her eyes were a maroon color. Where red met brown. Her long dark hair fell in curls down her back. She wore a simple white dress with long sleeves that hung to her ankles.
"Hello, Dear. Thank you." She replied to Bella, stepping forward to hug her. Bella gasped slightly, before slowly hugging her back.
"Didyme.." Marcus' voice broke the silence that had enveloped us. She ran at vampire speed, knocking Marcus over, sobbing hysterically as they both nearly screamed their love at each other. I had never seen Marcus so.. happy. So.. content.
I stepped toward my Bella, wrapping her in my protective embrace again. "You did it, baby." I whispered in her ear. "You really did it."
Slashin' - Bashin' - Your soul We'll rip
Trashin' - Dashin' - Your throat We'll slit.
Bloodthirsty.
Bella POV.
"Listen, Maggots!" Jane roared. The army of seventy vampires straightened out. Peter had chosen our best fighters and disposed of the rest. "If you die in there, you will be easily replaced." She hissed. "If you screw up - you'll wish you had died in there. We aren't going to fuck around, we're going in for the kill."
The cheers erupted through our army, even though she had threatened their lives, they cheered. Peppy sons of bitches.
"No doubt, a lot of you will die. The best however, will receive an invitation to join the Guard. If you wish, you may leave. We will have no further use for you." She continued on with her speech. They all knew I didn't like the speeches. Sure, I could deliver one hell of a threat, but what point was it?
I crossed my arms over my chest and glared at our pathetic group. Out of the whole lot, only a few stood out.
Axel was one of them. He stood tall, 6'5, with long shaggy crimson hair that touched his shoulder blades. His eyes were green. He was an illusionist. We found him when we first came across our first war, he was so valuable, we could never really part with him. He was amusing with a sinister dark streak. Kind of like Alec in a way.
Kevin was slightly shorter than Axel, but darker. He stood 6 feet exactly. He had long black hair that just reached the back of his neck falling in rigged layers. His eyes were permanently black with hate or hunger. Or lust when it came to Gwen. He could absorb energy and turn it into a sheild of armor around him, but had to have physical contact to shield anyone else.
Gwen was his mate, she was 5'5 and every humans dream. She had long legs, long crimson hair that touched her waist red eyes and was very agile and slender. She always held the elegant air around her, and I knew for a fact most guys fell at her feet. Well, more like Kevin beat them down to her feet and that was as close as they would ever get. She could gather mannaout of.. pretty much anything and turn it into pink manna and use it to her will, weather it be used as a shield, platforms or projectiles.
The Last person that would be receiving an invitation to the Guard was Ben. In his human life, he was Gwen's cousin through marriage. He pretty much took on the big brother role in her life. He was only an inch taller than Gwen, standing at a rather short height of 5'6 and always getting picked on by someone like Jasper or Emmett. He had light brown hair and red eyes. He had the ability to morph into anything he could think of.
They stood to my left, all adorning smirks on their faces as Jane continued screaming at the 'Maggots'.
"This is your only chance to prove your worth. Don't make us regret ever turning you." She growled.
A round of 'Ma'am, yes, ma'am' chorused through the group.
I looked up at the stars that shone in the sky, Jasper following my lead. He wrapped a hand around mine as we watched the full moon disappear behind the grey cloud.
"Then we attack now." Jasper announced.
