(Jasper's point of view)
I went up to my room to focus. What the hell was wrong with me? I couldn't help but focus on Bella. It was like we were attached in the kitchen. I simply looked at her, and it was like she made me happy, and I made her at peace. I turned my boom box on and turned it up. I need to get these dance moves. I practiced hard, but five minutes turned into ten before I went down to the family meeting.
(Alice's point of view)
"So the reason I asked for a family meeting is because something strange came to my attention. I uuhh…walked in here earlier and it was like each of us were off. It was awkward and I honestly had to rush outside to breathe better. I drew some pictures and I stopped short when I noticed what I drew." I paused. With a deep breath, I showed them what I created.
"No. Unbelievable." Carlisle said shocked.
"Wow Alice. It's beautiful." Bella said. Rosalie smiled and Esme rubbed my back.
"So you mean to tell me that this is real?" Jasper asked. Emmett sat looking confused.
I nodded. I was about to explain everything, but then Edward cut me off.
"What does this mean anyway? " He scowled.
I stared at the figures. The murky shadow covered figures with different glows to them. I smiled a sad smile because what I was about to say could break us a part.
"It means every one of us has a potential power and that it is who you truly are. That's why no one's been happy, because we all stopped short in our journey." I felt inspired. I glanced at every face as they processed my words.
"So what power do I have?" I smiled at Emmett. He was always the one to except you no matter what.
"It looks like you are an empath. Your transformation was triggered by your emotions from past experiences. You have to let it change you for the good and then you have to break free from your emotions so they can be controlled. "He offered a sad smile.
"And mine? What's it say?" Edward demanded.
I rolled my eyes.
"It says you are cupid's son. You are so bitter because you do not believe in love!" I was mad now. Ever since this school year started, he was a complete jerk. I caught the looks, and the finger he put up behind my back. What I didn't understand was why was he such an arrogant bastard?
"You know what Alice…" Edward decided to get in my face but maybe it wasn't such a bad idea that he did.
"Edward, sit down and shut up!" He froze like he was a robot.
I turned towards Carlisle.
"Your power is very strong like you just saw. You are the guardian, the leader of the pact. You give advice that serves as wisdom to us. Your connection with others has morphed you into a powerful advisor. Your opinion shifts us to do wise things. Edward thought it was wise to listen to you, so he followed." He beamed. I could've sworn I saw him blush.
"Now, I'll explain your true power only if you apologize." I crossed my arms over my chest like an immature third grader. He seemed confused, but he relented anyway.
(Edward's point of view)
I was shocked. I don't know what the hell happened, but Carlisle did not influence me to sit down. It was more than that. It was like someone poked my inner man, forcing him to sit. I felt like a zombie, it didn't feel good to be under someone's power. I cringed. Who did that?
"I'm waiting!" Alice stood there tapping her foot.
"I'm sorry I've been a jerk. Something always seems to make me upset. Forgive me?" My glazed eyes spoke the unspoken. I was all too good at fooling people.
"You are the prophet. When you speak, your words make it true to the person listening, and even in general. You can say, "it's 1984" and it will be that time because your words literally change our lives." I smiled. She should've never told me that.
"Your anime stories have influenced your words, therefore sparking your transformation, but there are consequences when you say the wrong things." I frowned. Dammit.
(Bella's Point of view)
"Bella!" I jumped.
"Yea?" I'm sure I was sweating. I was so nervous that she caught me using my power on Edward earlier.
"Are you ok? You don't look so good." Everyone turned towards me in concern.
"I'll take her to my room. Come on Bella." Jazz interrupted before I even said anything. He grabbed my hand, leaving no argument. We walked in silence, but I know he wanted to say something.
"Jazz?" I caressed his cheek. He leaned into it and closed his eyes.
"Later." He said firmly. It was a promise and I would always hold on to his promises.
(Jasper's point of view)
I walked back down to the meeting and it was weird because everyone was staring at me.
"Jasper." Alice sang my name.
"Your power is unique, because it charges everyone else's power. Your power is strength and endurance. You have super speed, agility, strength, physically and mentally, and you have the power to draw lightning to channel into your body so you can perform at your best. Your dancing has triggered your transformation." I was stunned. That seemed pretty awesome. I must've looked like a little boy who got the best gift on Christmas.
"Rosalie, you are the danger magnet. You have a soft nature about you that allows you to know when something's wrong. You can teleport to anywhere, and you can fight, protect, even shift to be an object or a different person, just to keep people safe. Your gut instinct has begun the shift in you." Rose shrugged it off, but knowing her she'll probably scream into her pillow when no one's around.
"Esme, your power is special. You can create any relationship with anyone. So you can change how you look just to make someone your friend. It's cool, because they won't know why you are so special to them, and you can draw them in when you need them. Your love for Carlisle has triggered your change." She smiled.
"How will I know what is genuine?" Esme asked.
"You will feel it. You can make that choice." Alice seemed so intelligent.
"My power is blackout. I can put pictures in your mind to make you feel its reality. I can also captivate your brain, because I can put you in a black box in your mind, when you are sitting in the living room. If you think you are in a black box, then you will limit yourself, possibly never functioning to your capability forever. My artistic skills triggered the transformation." She smirked. I could've sworn I saw Edward lose his color.
"So much to take in." Emmett said as he yawned. Poor guy.
"I can say the same." Carlisle looked like he had an epiphany coming.
"I should head home, it's getting late." Esme stood as Edward, Emmett and Alice motioned towards the door.
"I'm beat. Who's driving?" Emmett smirked as Edward frantically ran out the house to start the car.
"Later." Alice called as Emmett followed her shaking his head.
Esme blew kisses goodnight and Carlisle walked her to her car. Rose just shrugged. She dosed before I hit the top of the steps. Everyone was gone. The only sound was the gentle hum from the crickets. Finally.
