Chapter 14
The Murderous Kind
New Powers
A/N i'm back!
Bella's P.O.V.
"So what do we do now?" I asked looking around the small, yet open room that we (Edward, Alice, Jasper, Carlisle, and Emmett, oh, and myself) were staying in. It was almost exactly the same as the house in Forks- white, spacious and amazing. It had been a long few days, what with me going crazy, and Carlisle trying to make me kill everyone. I was slightly confused as to who was trying to hurt us now, but now that I had Edward back, I was only concerned in keeping him. I took Edwards hand in my own, searching for comfort, and the answer to all this madness.
"I say we get Carlisle to talk." Emmett blurted out, looking towards the kitchen area where Carlisle was currently tied up. "I reckon he knows all about it." He cracked his knuckles in anticipation, grinning madly.
"Emmett! You know we can't hurt him- he is still family," Alice piped up in her small voice. She looked on the verge of tears, and we could all tell that she could not believe that she had not seen this coming. "I'm sure he will tell us! He has to- he can't want a war... he just can't!" she turned and snuggled into Jaspers chest.
"Alice is right," Jasper said. "This has to be dealt with properly."
"Yes, but what if he doesn't want to talk? We can't exactly force it out of him, unless we start slowly ripping parts of him off," Edward said, thoughtfully.
"NO!" we heard Carlisle cry from the kitchen.
"Well..." I said. "I could always, you know, use my power on him. My new power, that is." I looked around the room, pensively.
"What new power? Why haven't you told me about a new power?" growled Edward.
"Well... you see..." I said, rather unsurely. I really didn't know if it would be the right 'Time to tell him' I thought, or maybe I should just try it on Carlisle and showhim. I didn't even really know how it worked myself. I decided that showing him would be the easiest way to help him deal with it. "I'll show you. Can you bring in Carlisle for me, Emmett? Please try not to break him," I looked sideways at him as he once more cracked his knuckles.
"Fine..."he grumbled and stormed his way into the kitchen. I heard Carlisle cowering as Emmett entered the kitchen. We heard the scrape of a chair as Emmett lifted him and brought him out of the kitchen. Carlisle looked like hell. The purple bruises under his eyes looked more black than purple, and his skin was an icy white. He was shaking, and twitching, trying to see everything around him. He caught my glare and shivered.
"What are you going to do with me?" he stuttered. I really hated seeing him like this. I was so use to the cool, calm and collective Carlisle, and to see him shaking in hate and fear just really broke my heart. I felt Edward tense- he wasn't use to this either. Jasper was cringing away from us all, the intensity of all the emotions in the room hurting him and overpowering him.
"Can we just hurry up and do this? I can't stand this anymore!" Jasper cried.
"Ok, sorry," I replied, getting slightly testy myself. "I haven't done this yet, so someone is going to need to stop me if I go too far... I think that by doing this, I could risk losing all my powers, and that is something that we can't afford."
"What are you going to do?"Growled Edward once more. "Because if it is going to hurt you in any way, I won't stand by and let you do it." He took hold of both my hands, just to prove his point. Alice walked over, though, and said,
"She'll be ok. Trust me."
"How can I trust you when you didn't see the rest of this bullshit happening!" he barked, back at her.
"Because... I think I might know... but I will be able to know for sure after Bella has questioned Carlisle- he has all the answers." She pulled his hand off mine and I walked over to Carlisle, not looking at Edwards face once. I placed my hands on the crown of his head, thinking, 'oh god... I hope this works'.
"Edward, please trust me on this one, and just listen to me. Carlisle made an attempt, and succeeded for some time, to take control over my body, by using a fragment of my soul-"
"WHAT! Ho- wh-no- must kill..." screamed Edward moving towards Carlisle, a menacing grin on his face.
"Edward! Don't. Just. Listen. To. Me," I growled. He stopped and Emmett put a hand on his shoulder as a precaution. "Ok. So Carlisle was doing this to all of us, making us believe things that weren't true. But yesterday at the house, after Edward and Alice had left under the control of Carlisle; Carlisle attempted again to take over my body. Edward- it had a reverse effect. He ended up giving me all his powers," his face lit up, thinking of all the possibilities. "So now, I can, I think, using my telekinesis, I can control this power and get inside his mind- almost like what you can do with mind reading. But I can really go there. I can get inside his head and break down the barriers that he has placed to stop us from knowing about what is actually going to happen. Do you understand now? I need to do this to stop anyone else getting hurt; even if it means I have to risk myself." I looked Edward dead in the eyes, and saw the amount of hurt that this was causing him. "I have to do this."
Edward nodded his head, but just barely. He knew this could hurt, as did I. "I promise not to leave you again. So trust me," and I closed my eyes, so as to not see his reaction.
I closed my eyes to what was left of my family, praying that I wouldn't be leaving them for good. I concentrated all my energy on getting inside Carlisle's head, focusing everything on immersing myself in his thoughts. It became deathly silent around me; I could not hear even the busy streets surrounding the house. I thought I had made it into Carlisle, thinking at the same time- this is too quite. And those were the words that brought my world crashing down. I had made it. But not into the place that I had wanted to be.
I was in a place that should never be seen.
And I screamed louder than I had ever screamed before.
A/N so there you have it. Another chapter. I know now how I am going to finish this story without leaving people disappointed, and annoyed, and cross with me XD. I know that I have been gone far too long, and for that I am so very sorry. Truly. This year has been a load of crap for me, and I sort of lost my touch, as explained by my previous few chapters. But I couldn't just get rid of them because it would have just confused too many people. So I really do hope that you all like (possibly love :P) this chapter, and you can probably expect the rest of the story to be completed within the month.
Please review! It might make me write faster XD
xoxo Aimee!
