Chapter Nine

Bullets

Bella's Pov

Holy shit! Not even twelve hours ago Alice helped bring me to one of the best orgasms I've ever had in my entire life. I was surprised when she actually offered to do it, because she was still nervous about being that intimate. I wish she would've let me return the favor, but I don't think she's ready for that yet.

Last night was so much fun though. Being able to perform again on stage made me feel like I was on top of the world. When we were in high school back in the 80's, we used to play at parties and some clubs for fun. Now those were the days back then. We partied from sunset to sun up without a care in the world. Esme and Carlisle didn't really mind, as long as we were home by a certain time during school days. The best part of my life during that time, was meeting the Runaways. I lived and breathed Joan Jett's style of playing the guitar. I even got my haircut like hers back then. I had my own groupies back then too. None of them mattered though, because I was still searching for my mate. After seeing Rosalie and Emmett's relationship with each other, I decided to remain celibate until I met my mate. So I haven't been with anyone since the early 1930's.

Now the only thing that I have to worry about, is what I'm going to do for Alice for Valentine's Day. We have those tickets to go to Paris, but I don't think that would be a good idea. I don't know how Jamie would handle us leaving for a couple of days without her. We've grown very attached to each other over the past month, and now has me wrapped around her little finger. Alice says that she's like a little me now, and I was starting to believe it. She wanted to do everything that I did, and wanted to be wherever I was every day. I didn't mind though, because she was starting to look up to me like a 'father' figure. She went to Alice when it came to art and clothes, and then she would come to me about sports and music.

I felt Alice start to stir and looked over at my alarm clock and saw that it was eight in the morning. I felt one of Alice's dainty hands grab my hand, which was under her shirt on her stomach, and intertwine with mine. She slowly rolled over so that she was facing me on her side. I pressed my lips to her forehead, and heard her sigh in contentment. She nuzzled her head underneath my chin, so I pressed my nose into her hair and inhaled her scent. I felt my body start to vibrate as I began to purr, causing Alice to giggle and snuggle into my body more. I smiled and hugged her body as close to me as possible. She soon pulled her head from out underneath my chin and gave me a small kiss on my nose.

"Good morning." she said quietly.

"Good morning to you too, Ali." I replied back. I realized that we had to get Jamie to school, and that we only had thirty minutes to do so.

"Alice, we got to go take Jamie to school." I said and got up. She looked over at the clock and jumped out of bed.

"Shit! We only have like twenty minutes before we have to leave!" she said and ran over to Jamie. She gently nudged her awake, only successful in having Jamie swat her hand away. I walked over to where Alice was and motioned for her to stand back.

"C'mon Baby Girl, you have to wake up and go to school this morning." I whispered to Jamie. All she did was roll over onto her stomach with a groan. I chuckled as she did, because she was just too cute.

"Alright Jamie, you leave me with no choice." I said and descended my hands upon her sides. She squealed as I began to tickle her, her laughter resounding through the entire room. I soon stopped, so that I wouldn't cause Jamie to have an accident on the bed.

"Now are you ready to go hang out with Jason and Carmen today?" I asked Jamie as Alice put Jamie's school clothes on her. She nodded her head and smiled up at me.

"Mhm, we're going to go pway with the bwocks today." she said. Alice finished dressing her up, and we headed downstairs to the Escalade. Jamie was wearing a long sleeved black shirt underneath a pink collared shirt. She had on a pair of jeans with a pair of black converse that she begged Alice to buy her. Apparently she was starting take after my style too, not that I minded, but I'd have to make sure that she still had girly flare to her clothing. She had on the bracelet that Edward had made for her for Christmas, and her hair was done up in a ponytail.

When we got to the school, Alice and I walked Jamie into her classroom, hoping that Lauren wouldn't cause a scene to erupt. As soon as we got inside, Angela waved at us and then said goodbye to her kids before coming over to us. I saw Carmen and Jason wave for Jamie to go over there to them. She said goodbye to Alice, before wrapping her arms around my legs. I crouched down in front of her and pulled her into a hug.

"Now what are you going to do if someone tries to start a problem with you?" I asked as we pulled away.

"I'm going to ignowe them and avoid the situation." she replied. I gave her a high five and a kiss on her forehead, and let her go over to an awaiting Carmen and Jason.

"I'm so glad that Carmen, Jason, and Jamie get along so well with each other." Alice said. Angela nodded in agreement as we watched the kids play with one another. They were trying to make the biggest castle that they could possibly make, and whenever it fell over, they would just laugh and rebuild it again.

"That reminds me. Alice, my kids were wondering if Jamie would like to spend the night and have a little party at my house for Valentine's day? That would leave you two to go do something romantic for the evening." Angela said and wiggled her eyebrows at Alice. She flushed slightly, scratching the back of her neck.

"Are you guys sure? It's alright with me, as long as you wouldn't mind having her over." Alice replied.

"Totally positive on the arrangement. We were planning on just watching some movies, along with making some cookies. Carmen was actually the one to ask if Jamie could come over in the first place." Angela answered back.

"Okay, if you're totally sure then ya, Jamie can go over and hangout with you guys and the kids." Alice said. Angela smiled at us and we said our goodbye's to each other as we headed back to the car. I started up "The Beast" as Emmett called it, and headed back towards home.

"So Alice, what do want to do on Valentine's Day since Jamie's going over to Angela's for the night?" I asked. Truth was, is that I'm actually nervous about Valentine's Day. I honestly had no idea as to what I was going to do with Alice, so maybe asking her will give me a good idea on what to do.

"Well, we could just hang out with each other. Or we could go have a umm… romantic night with each other." she replied, whispering out the last bit. A romantic night? Did that mean that Alice wanted to consummate our relationship? I could do that, not that I'm focusing on that entirely. Okay, maybe I am. What? I haven't had sex with a woman in almost ninety years, so I'm sorry if I might be a little too focused on this subject for right now. But yeah, I could get us a hotel room with the whole shebang for a romantic evening. We could dance for a little while, and then settle in the bathtub for a bit, and then hit the bed.

"We can do that if you want to." I replied, and her face lit up in a smile. She lifted up the center console and scooted over to me. I wrapped one of my arms around her shoulders and hugged her to me.

"Hey Alice, I'm not pressuring you into doing this, am I?" I asked her. I was dead serious when I asked her this, because I didn't want to pressure her into doing something that she's not ready for. That's not who I am.

"No Bella, you're not. I really want to give myself to you, but I do admit that I'm nervous about it." she replied.

"I promise that I'll make it the best night you've ever had, Ali." I said back. She gave me a quick peck on my cheek and settled her head on my shoulder.

"Bella, can you tell me more about your kind?" she asked me. I nodded and parked the car in the garage, seeing as we were already home. We went up to our room, and relaxed on the bed as I turned on the TV.

"What would you like to know about us?" I asked as she snuggled up to my side.

"Do you guys have special powers? Can people be transformed to be like you? What's this 'mate' thing that you keep talking about?" she replied.

"Yes, we do have special powers. Carlisle is able to heal any wound just by touching it. Jasper can feel and manipulate emotions. Edward can read minds. Emmett is incredibly strong, while Rosalie is very tech savvy. Esme has the ability to tell if someone's lying to her or not. That's why we can never get away with anything if she's around." I said, answering her first question. Her eyes widened when I told her about Edward, but she laughed when she heard about Esme. She said that a mother can always tell if their child is lying to them or not.

"Now I have a weird ability. When I experience a great amount of anger, I don't shift into my tiger form like the others do. Carlisle said that the spirit of my tiger form comes out and engulfs my body in a red aura. He said that the full body aura is a weapon that I can fight with like an extension of my body. It takes a toll on my body when I try to contact it, so I only train with it about twice every month." I said. She had a worried expression on her face, but it disappeared when I gave her a small smile.

"Onto your next question, yes, people can be transformed into our kind. We have to bite them so the venom in our saliva can get into the bloodstream. With a vampire's transformation it feels like you're on fire and suffer through great pain during the change. With a weretiger's transformation it's the opposite, you go into a deep sleep for about three days, and you feel like your frozen during the transformation. While you're in your deep sleep, you and your inner tiger spirit bond with each other. And as long as you keep phasing into your tiger form, you basically have immortality." I answered.

"Wow, I cant even imagine how painful that a vampire's transformation is." Alice said. I nodded in agreement.

I don't know what it is, but after a human transforms into a vampire, they come out with the mindset that nothing can take them down. That obviously isn't true because of the fact that shifters can easily subdue them. The Volturi members have some weird experiments going on from what I could tell when I was captured by them. They've been breeding human females with full male vampires, causing a half vampire offspring to be born. The half breeds are the main foot soldiers of the Volturi's mob, while the full blooded vampires are the leaders and instructors. While I was held captive for about five days, they ran tests on my blood and took DNA from me for something. I wouldn't know because they knocked me out every time they did these tests. The only time they left me awake was when they tortured me. I remember them bringing in this little blonde girl, who started to claim me as hers.

I think that they're trying to create a hybrid between my kind and their kind. Why do I think this? I think it has to do with the fact that while I was in their dungeon that they have, I overheard Aro give the blonde girl instructions to seduce me into have sex with her. Needless to say it didn't work, so she tried to force herself on me, and I went out of control from rage. I remember her disappearing from the dungeon before I could get my hands on her. After that all I remember is waking up naked in my special cave with the waterfall, and my family finding me little bit after I woke up. They said that they were there the second my rage exploded. Carlisle had said that a red aura had taken over my entire body, and that it made so powerful that I destroyed the dungeon wall that was to my cell. He described it as something huge like a giant, punched his hand through the wall leaving the metal destroyed.

Since then I have been training my ass off on trying to control that side of me. I found out that I could talk to the spirit tiger through meditation. Carlisle said that I've been making great progress, since I'm now able to remember everything that happens while I'm in that mode. Edward just recently made a machine that would allow him and my family be able to view in on my conversations with my spirit tiger during my meditation. It's pretty awesome, but sometimes the conversations get a little personal so it was embarrassing to talk with my family after I came out of my meditation. Emmett was the worst one to talk to, but Rosalie set him straight for me all the time, even if she did pick on me to a little bit.

"What do you want to know about the mate thing, Alice?"

"I'd like to know everything if you don't mind." she answered shyly.

"Well a mate for my kind, is someone who we fall in love with and is the other half of us that we search for day in and day out of our lives, but there's a catch. That one person that we fall in love with, will be the only person that we will ever fall in love. The mate has the option to choose whether they want to be in a relationship or not, and if they choose no, then we remain heartbroken for the rest of our lives." I replied.

I looked down at her when I heard her gasp. She looked as if she was about to cry, so I pulled her into a kiss. It was slow and passionate, and I loved it. Her tongue met my playfully as we battled for dominance. I let her take control, and she moved her body over mine and straddled it. She soon pulled away for a much needed breath and then gave me a quick kiss on my neck. She sat up so that she sitting on my stomach, and I propped myself up a little against the headboard of the bed.

"Alice, do you every feel like you're drawn to me in anyway?" I asked quietly. She nodded, a cute blush adorning her features. I grabbed her right hand and rested it overtop of my heart. I felt it start to flutter in my chest as Alice's hand made contact with it.

"Do you feel the way my heart beats for you, Alice? It will never do this with any other person in the world except for you." I whispered, still holding her hand to my chest. She looked at me with confusion in her eyes.

"You're my soul mate, Alice." I said. I didn't even have a chance to compose myself before Alice slammed her lips onto mine.

This kiss was different than the ones we usually shared. Where as the others made my body feel warm, this one was like a pure heat wave, and was full of rugged passion. She was in complete control over the kiss, because she was already on top of me, and now she has my hands pinned up against the headboard with hers. She pulled away leaving me completely breathless. When I opened my eyes after that amazing kiss, I looked up at Alice to see her biting her bottom lip sexily. I groaned when I realized that I couldn't throw her down on this bed and just make love to her yet.

"Hey Alice, I think we better stop before we reach the point of no return." I said still panting slightly. She nodded and then fell on top of me while wrapping her arms around my body. She sighed and nuzzled her head against my chest. I ran my hand through her silky soft tresses and massaged her head. She moaned and nuzzled her head further into my chest. All of a sudden I heard her start to emit a sound that almost sounded exactly like my purring.

"Looks like I'm going to have to call you Ali-Cat from now on." I said and began to chuckle as the sound got louder.

We stayed in that position until I had to go pick Jamie up from school. Alice said that she had to go over some stuff for a new house with Esme. I decided to take the Ferrari, so I put the car seat in and took off towards Jamie's school. When I arrived to her school, I saw that all of the kids were outside playing on the playground. Then I saw something that made my blood boil. There was a man and his little boy ganging up on Jamie on the basketball court. I saw the little boy trip Jamie, and that was it. I hopped over the chain link fence and charged over to where Jamie was.

"Are you okay, Jamie?" I asked as I helped her up. She nodded and I inwardly smiled as I saw that she didn't cry this time, instead she was glaring daggers at the boy. I turned around and looked at the guy, who was smiling smugly at us and gave his son a high five. I noticed that the little boy had a bruise on his cheek.

"Sir, would you explain to me why your son just pushed my daughter down?" I asked him. He was taller than me by a good four inches, and he looked like he was a body builder. He couldn't touch Emmett, but he was still pretty big.

"Your daughter punched my son in the face, that's why." he replied. I was about to ask what happened, but Jamie beat me to the punch.

"I only did it because he pushed me up against a wall and kissed me." Jamie replied back. I did notice that her lips were a little bit puffy. I felt my rage spike when I saw the man give his kid another high five.

"You actually agree with your child's behavior!" I said dumbfounded.

"All women are teases. You have to take what you want from them, or else you don't get any." he replied and smirked. Are all the men in this town fucking retarded?

"And it's a wonder why you have the ability to call yourself a man." I said. I saw his face go red in anger.

"What did you say?" he huffed out angrily.

"I said that you have no right to call yourself a man." I answered back. I swiftly dodged the punch that the guy threw at my face. By now all the children and their parents were huddled around the basketball court. I pulled my hair up into a ponytail, and zipped up my leather jacket. I told Jamie to go stand by Angela so that she wouldn't get hurt. I wasn't going to fight the guy in front of all these kids, so I decided to put on a little show for them.

While I had my back turned, the guy charged me and tried to tackle me. I did a back flip and landed behind him. The guy landed on the concrete and quickly got up. He charged at me again, so I went into a series of backhand springs diagonally across the basketball court, and finished it of by doing a full. All of the kids clapped and cheered as I continued to dodge him by using gymnastics. I continued to do this until the guy was completely worn out. I walked up to him and placed my forefinger against his forehead. I pushed against it, causing him to fall onto the court on his back panting heavily. I put my foot on his chest and leaned over him.

"You're pathetic for allowing your son to behave the way he does, and for trying to fight in front of kids. I better not hear of your son harassing my daughter again, or things will get ugly." I said and walked back over to where Jamie was.

Before I could get to her though, I was swarmed by little kids trying to give me high fives and what not. When I finished, Jamie ran towards me at full speed. I picked her up and tossed her into the air and then caught her. She wrapped her arms around me and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I heard the parents start clapping and a few of them thanked me for taking care of the guy. I picked Jamie up and carried her over to the Ferrari and buckled her up.

As soon as we got into the car, it started raining. The rain was almost to the point of sleet, as I pulled out of the parking lot. Driving from Jamie's school back home there was only one traffic light that we had to go through, so I could travel as fast as I wanted to after the light. Well as I went through the light, I decided to drive slow because of the rain, and I didn't want to make Jamie sick. I looked at my rear view mirror, and saw a sleek black Mustang driving behind us. I couldn't tell who was in the car because of the tinted windows. I noticed that for the past five minutes that the car kept following us and was starting to close in on us. I sped up a little to see if he actually was pursuing us, and was right.

"Jamie, I need you to get unbuckled and sit in my lap right now." I said trying to keep my voice calm. Not even two seconds later did I feel a small body press into me.

"What's wrong, Bewwa?" she asked looking up at me.

"There's a bad man following us right now, and I'm scared that he's going to try to hurt us." I replied. Her eyes went wide and she pressed into me like she was trying to become a part of me.

I stroked her back trying to reassure her that I wasn't going to let anything happen to us. It was working until I saw that the guy who was driving rolled down his window and pulled out a gun. Jamie screamed as he started firing at us. I was trying to avoid his gunfire by zigzagging on the road, but it didn't seem to work. I pressed Jamie's head up against my chest as one of the bullets shattered back window. Then I heard another gunshot and realized that it hit the tire. I pressed down on the brakes, but since the road was slick from the sleet, the car began to hydroplane. I had to get us out of the car before we got into a major wreck, so I undid my seatbelt and held Jamie as close to my body as possible before opening my door and jumping out of the car. I made sure that my body was the only one that hit the road as we rolled from the impact.

I looked up and saw that the Mustang had stopped, and that the person driving had come out with the gun still in their hand. I got up quickly and bolted into the woods as they began to fire again. As soon as I thought we were safe, I cried out when I felt something tear through my side. I knew I had gotten shot, but I had to make it to the house so that Jamie would be safe. When I finally saw that the house was within reach, I felt my vision start to darken and it was like looking through a tunnel. I knew that I had lost a lot of blood from running all the way home, but I pushed myself to get inside. I barged through the front door and into the living room. I put Jamie on one of the couches and saw Alice and Esme come running to see what happened. Just as I saw Alice's face appear in the living room, my vision went completely black.

"BELLA!"

Alice's voice was the last thing I heard before I fell into unconciousness.

AN: I had a lot of fun writing this chapter. What's going to happen to Bella? Who was the person that was shooting at her? If you have any guesses send me a PM or a review about what you think.

If you want to know what Bella's ability looks like, got to youtube and type in Naruto's demon side. It's basically the same thing, except that Bella's is a tiger instead of a fox.

I also have a new idea for a Bellice story. It follows the same story line of the Sandlot 2, but it has a twist in it. Send me a PM if you want to know more about it, or if I should write it and upload it here or not.
