Chapter Five: The Hunt
All the males decided to join Charlie and Carlisle on Isabella's first hunt. The females felt that they couldn't stand to watch their little angel take down an animal without wanting to rip it to pieces for even attempting to hurt her while the guys we excited to see their little munchkin take on the big game. Sure we were all worried, but Isabella is part vampire for crying out loud. It's against nature for a deer, lion, or even a bear to be able to take her down. That doesn't mean however that she was not scared.
"Bells, listen to your senses and you'll be fine honey." Jasper spoke to ease the tension in her shoulders not that that helped. She continued to show her daddy her fears that added to his own worries.
"Yeah kid, it's nothing! All you do it run at the creature, jump on its back and then suck it dry. It's nothing you can't handle. I've seen you with a bottle before and trust me, sucking the blood will be the easiest thing in the world for you!" You got to give Emmett credit that did relax her shoulders a little. She even was able to calm down enough to start shielding her thoughts from me, much to my annoyance.
"Welly? That's it? Just jump and bite?" She asked.
"Well, basically, yes sweetie that is it." Charlie replied.
"Then I gots this! When do we start?" She smiled at us.
"Well honey, close your eyes and tell me what do you hear?" Carlisle ordered.
"I hear a thump-thump sound. What is that?" She replied.
"That's a heart beat honey, it's what carries the creatures blood through it's' body and allows it to live. Kind of like yours but much slower and louder. You see -". Oh for the love of god Carlisle, just stop. Emmett thought.
"Uh Carlisle, she's one. She doesn't need a crash course in Biology. Now Bells, now where is the sound coming from? Use your cute little button nose of yours to smell it out." Jasper asked softly in order to get the hunt on. After feeling her recognition, "Good, now let your instincts take over." And with that she was off into the woods ready to make her first kill. Maybe we should of videotape this moment… oh want am I thinking. She can just replay it for everybody with her gift.
AN: Sorry its short guys, but I'm running into blocks with the whole hunting scene. Hope you enjoyed it anyways.
