Chapter 7

We made it back to the Cullen's house in about an hours time, holding hands the entire way. As much as it was good to be away from it all for a short period of time I found myself anxious to help Bella with her training. I need to make bracelets for everyone and try to figure out how I could be perhaps a conductor rather than the tree. Maybe I could some how make it so that she only needed to shield myself rather than the tree if it would protect someone else other than me.

Bounding up the front porch I let go of Garrett's hand and flitted over to Bella, inside the house, as Garrett followed my lead.

" So Bell's I have a brilliant idea and I was hoping along with more training if you would let me try it?"

" So you were actually able to think? I thought you would be to busy to, I guess Garrett wasn't that great." Emmett laughed.

I heard Garrett growl and I couldn't help but start to think of the events that occurred.

" Violet could you please not think about that, I would rather not have those images in my head."

I chuckled and cuddled up to Garrett's side giving him a kiss on the cheek.

" Emmett, He is perhaps the greatest thing to come into my existence." I smirked cheekily at him.

" Now as I was saying Bells how about it?"

Bella looked at me wearily, " I don't see a problem with it, though you just got back you sure you don't want to wait?"

" Non sense lets go, Oh! I also am going to need Eddie and Katie."

I took Bella's hand and pulled her outside with me, Eddie and Katie soon followed.

" Okay Eddie come here."

Eddie walked towards me as I hand a one of the trees of the giant redwood make a bracelet around his wrist and around mine.

" Now Eddie and Kat can you move about a hundred paces to the north, Oh not you Bella. What you're going to do is place a shield on me, Its just a theory but I want to see if instead of shielding the tree you could shield me and by doing that shield Eddie from Kat's electricity attack."

Bells nodded at me as she focused on shielding my aura as i concentrated on the bracelet the was shielding Eddie. I could feel her shield being funneled into the bracelet as it covered me.

" Okay Kat hit Eddie with all you got!"

" Are you sure this is a good idea?" Eddie asked skeptically

" Eddie if you don't trust me it wont work."

I could see Kat touching Eddie's hand as he closed his eyes tightly, then opened them widely as he felt nothing.

" This is incredible! I can't believe you are doing this!"

I bumped knuckles with Bells and smirked at Eddie

" I can't believe you doubted us Eddie."

I look next to me as I see Garrett has flitted to my side and he picks me up in his arms embracing me and spinning me around slowly.

" You my flower are an amazing creature." He kisses me softly as I wrap my arms around him. I pull away slowly and look towards Bells and Eddie as they hug and kiss each other.

" Okay so now that we know this is possible we are going to have a few sparing matches and see if she can concentrate on me as i'm fighting to protect Eddie and Emmett. We need to practice war tactics anyway, The Volturi are pretty tough and there is only a few people that are still alive today who haven't died." I stated

I then heard the growls of wolves in the distance, alert to a possible threat I focus on the trees towards the sound of the growling and project my mind outward towards the chase. " Well speak of the devil and he shall appear, or actually they shall appear." I smirked as I saw one blonde vampire and another black haired vampire.

" Stephan and Vladimir! my old friends!"

" Well if it isn't young Violet its a pleasure to see you again." Stephan stated as he gave me a hug.

" How long has it been Violet? Nearly a century?" Vlad stated giving me a hug as the Wolves entered the clearing.

" Woe there wolfy easy there these guys are here to help us aren't you Vlad? Steph?"

" Why yes it's about time someone challenged these Italian scum."

" Wait a moment we are not trying to challenge them." Carlisle inputs

Vlad counters, " You gather witnesses to prove you're innocents, It matters not to the Volturi especially since you have so many gifted here. They will kill you all and spare the talents."

" This is why I hated them so much and especially with Demetri seeking me as his mate, they will not stop this time." I heard a growl come from Garrett as he wrapped his arms around me.

" Oh who is this little Violet?"

" Oh Steph, Vlad, This is my mate Garrett. Garrett this is Stephan and Vladimir from the Romanian Coven."
