A/N: I am in happy tears now :`) It sounds like you guys enjoyed the first chapter, so I decided to go on with the story!
OH, and before I forget! I just have to answer a question from lalaland91
Q: how does it work that billy black was driving he can´t drive he´s in a wheelchair?
A: I don't remember if Bella saw Billy in the first book, or when the accident happened to get him in a wheelchair in the first place. But in this story, Billy was never in a wheelchair. But that will come up in later chapters!
I woke up in complete comfort. I felt like I was laying on cloud nine.
Of course, when I looked around, I nearly jumped out of my skin.
Because I was laying on cloud nine, or cloud whatever number you choose.
I poked the fluffy white cloud beneath me, jumping when my finger went right through it.
I gulped, and braced myself for the impact of my body falling from the sky.
Nothing happened, except that a shadow blocked the brilliant sunlight that was streaming down at me.
I looked up.
She was no Cullen, but she was pretty.
She had dirty blonde, wavy hair and blue-green-gray eyes. Her skin was tan and smooth, and her lips were a cherry red.
And she had fluffy, white wings growing out of her back.
"What are you doing here already?" She asked curiously. "You were not due until a whole 64 years, Bella Swan,"
I stared up at her. "How do you know my name?" I retorted, avoiding the question.
She laughed, a laugh of bells. "I know everything about you, Bella, I have been studying you the past eighteen years. I know you were born in Forks, Washington, then moved to Phoenix with your mother. Your mother, Renee, got married to Phil Dwyer, and you moved back to Forks to be with your father, Charlie, who is also the chief police of Forks. I know you fell in love with a vampire, I know he left you. I also know that you shouldn't be in heaven already, Bella." She stated simply.
I blinked. "Heaven? So..you're basically telling me you're an angel? Is that why you have wings?" I asked, confused.
"Yes,"
I believed her. I was never really a religious girl, but after falling in love with a vampire, you tend to believe all of the myths.
"Why are you talking so..business like?" I asked, out of all the questions.
She laughed again, then helped me to my feet.
"We're required to talk like that when we're training new angels. But, I'm Maggie," Maggie held out her hand, and I shook it.
Her words stopped me, though.
"Wait..new angel? You mean..I'm an angel now?"
Maggie bit her lip. "Well..you're a half-angel. You can only be a full angel when you're ready to be gone. But you, Bella, are still supposed to be on Earth, making you a half-angel. This is what happens: After I'm finished talking to you, you'll be sent back to Earth. Your body will take on new features, becoming a whole new person. You are still able to turn back into or out of your original Bella Swan body, by tapping on your new star tattoo on your foot. Only you can activate it, so don't worry if you get a foot massage or something. Once on Earth, you will have to go to the nearest high school in order to help the family you are given. We are able to talk to eachother through our minds, but it only works between us, so you aren't able to read any other people's thoughts. Every angel has a special power, you will find out yours on Earth. Hmm..those are pretty much the basics," Maggie took a deep breath, then fanned herself out of exhaustion.
"What did you mean when you said you had been studying me for eighteen years now?" I asked.
She rolled her eyes. "I've been watching you since you first came out of your mom's womb in a rush of blood, Bella. I was born in 1957, then became an angel after I died at age seventeen. It was scary the first time. I remember that I was extremely bewildered with all this new stuff. I even tried to run away, then came back to my senses after two hours of thinking it through. I mean, Melissa was dead, I couldn't just walk around looking like her! So, I changed my name to Maggie, and I only come down to Earth to watch you closely at moments. Did you know you nearly gave me a heart attack when you fell into your pool when you were seven?" Maggie shuddered at the memory.
"How did you die?" I asked.
(A/N: Rape description up ahead, just warning)
She swallowed, her face draining from the lovely tan to a sick, white face.
"My father abused me. I was worthless to him, just a silly girl that insisted on making his oh-so-royal life of assigning me and my brothers extra chores so difficult.
It was a Friday night, I was about to go out with some of my girlfriends, so I was all dolled up; we had lived in a nice little place. My father..he came in, and I could immediately tell he had been with his vile friends, drinking liquor. He came over to me and grabbed my newly brushed hair, yanking it so hard that I felt tears in my eyes. "Girl, why aren't you out there doin' your fucking work?" He screamed. I didn't flinch or anything, I was used to him using the language and tone. I had cleared my throat, and said very politely "I'm going out tonight with Jesse and Darlene. I will be back at a proper time, and in bed, ready for tomorrow's set of chores," I had said, still kind in my opinion. "You ain't goin' out tonight, you got work round here," My father yelled, and smacked me smartly across the face. "Oh, you better believe I am" I had said, raising my tone. And..gosh, it just happened fast at first. He picked up my small mirror, and hit that against my head. The glass shattered, and rained down on me, drawing blood from my arms and legs. Then, my father kicked me to the ground and stomped on my ribs. He had never done anything like that, just the ritual of whipping with the horse's whip, throwing me from right to left, and throwing dishes at my head if they weren't properly cleaned. So, I was surprised. He started undoing his belt, and I braced myself for the feel of the leather and metal against my fragile skin. But..it never came. I opened my eyes, and he was taking off his pants. I was scared, Bella. I didn't know what he was doing.
I had been wearing my only dress, the one present I had gotten for Christmas in the past twelve years. Like I said, the starting was fast. One minute he was glaring at me with only his underwear, and next he was ontop of me, completely naked, and pushing my dress up my hips.
The first ten seconds I was staring up at him in shock, and after that I was as bare as a newborn baby's bottom, and time was going excruciatingly slow. I was grateful when it was over, and he left right after telling me to keep quiet or he would do it again, then kill me. I promised him, and went to sleep immediately....I never woke up."
I was aware of warm tears streaming down my cheeks. "Oh, I'm so sorry," I sobbed.
"Yeah, me too," She bit her lip, then took on a curious expression.
(A/N: Kay, the description is over)
"Bella, I may know everything about you, but I don't know what goes on in your mind. So, what possesed you to resort to suicide?" Maggie asked.
I gulped, and lowered my eyes to the fluffy white cloud beneath me. Nonetheless, I began my short story.
"Before I met the Cullens, I was just a small girl in a big school, and nobody cared to be friends with me. Then I moved to Forks, and everything changed. I felt ontop of the world, nothing could bring me down. I was completely in love with a vampire, I had an amazing best friend, and the two older brothers I had never had. Rosalie hated me..I didn't care. She was a Cullen, and I loved them all. I even felt like Carlisle and Esme were my real parents, so kind and caring. Then..I turned eighteen. I won't forget that day. They threw me a little party, much to my protests. I hurt myself..and Jasper lunged. After that, I noticed that the other Cullens had went away, and Edward was being extremely odd. He took me to the woods not soon after..and told me he didn't love me. I should've seen it. I mean, how could anyone as beautiful and perfect as him love someone as plain and average as Bella Swan? He made me promise, and I stupidly agreed. Maybe two months passed, and Charlie went out with Billy. I didn't bother hearing where he was going, I honestly didn't care. Then, I got a phone call from Charlie. He was making sure I locked the door, being the paranoid father he is. He told me he was nearing the fishing store, and I heard him cuss at someone from under his breath. Then, there was a loud bang, and a wooshing sound came from the other line as if it had been thrown. The line went dead, so I jumped into my truck to go to the nearby fishing store. I couldn't lose Charlie..he was all I had left, besides Renee. It was terrible. His head was badly banged up, and there was blood everywhere. I was surprised I didn't faint at the smell. The ambulance took him and Billy away, and I followed closely. Maybe two hours later, they informed me Charlie died. The horrible thing is, I didn't cry or even feel sorry. Everything had been ripped away from me violently, and now nobody could hold me back from suicide. That's why I'm here," I finished my little story-speech, and looked up. Maggie was fumbling with a little mirror, and turned to me. "You truly doubt the Cullens do not love you? "
I nodded. She handed me the mirror, and I looked at the complete black instead of the reflective glass. "That is the P.V. It can see what is happening, whenever you choose. It is going to show you what happened after the trigger was pulled,"
With those words, a scene devoloped in the mirror. The gun was held up to her mahogany hair, and her chocolate eyes were blinded with tears.
It started to play, and I looked away at the sound of the gunshot. When I looked back, I gasped.
Alice was sitting beside Bella, face twisted up in what was obviously agony.
"Bella, Bella, Bella!" She chanted, hands fluttering over Bella's body. I could tell she was moving vampire speed, but I could still make out her movements.
"Emmett! Shirt!" Alice screamed, and Emmett ran into to the screen, eyes black, and ripped off his shirt. Alice tugged it away from him violently, then placed it gingerly on Bella's wound.
There was a sound overpowering Alice and Emmett's voice, it was low and faint, and I realized it to be Bella's heartbeat.
Emmett swooped Bella's tiny form into his huge arms, and vampire-sped out of the scene, with Alice right on his tail.
The scene changed.
Alice, dry sobbing into her hands. Rosalie, sitting in bewildered silence. Emmett, also silent but face showing pain. Esme, crying into Carlisle's shirt. Jasper and Edward no where to be seen.
The scene changed again.
Emmett swung at Edward viciously, while Alice let profanities fly. Rosalie was joining in on the cussing, while Jasper was clutching at his head, and Carlisle and Esme were watching their kids with wary, tired, and hopeless eyes.
The mirror turned black again, and Maggie pried it gently from my hands.
I wasn't sure if I was regretting anything yet.
"Do I live here? Are we able to sleep?" I asked. I was extremely tired, and my mind needed an escape.
Maggie nodded, her dirty blonde hair bouncing.
"Sleep is not required, but we are able to, and find it very relaxing. As for a place to live, I have a house down on Earth down where you will be guarding your family. You will be transported 4 years into the future, Any more questions?"
I yawned, and shook my head no. I only wanted to go to sleep.
"I'll transport you to the house then. But beware, when you wake up-"
I didn't hear the rest of what she said, I was already asleep, too overwhelmed.
Okay, so, I was basically just trying to explain everything in this chapter. Tomorrow will be the description of Brooke, so bookmark my story, and add my story to story alert! Of course, reviewing is awesome, too ;]
