A/N A huge thanks to my very good friend OoJasper'sAngeloO for her beta work. She's really fast and got this back right away. Otherwise there wouldn't have been a chapter to post today. I didn't finish this chapter until late last night. I love ya girl, and thanks for being my friend. Mostly just information on Bella's gifts, although there is of course a nasty cliffy. Hope you enjoy.
I do not own Twilight or any of the characters.
Bella's POV
It's been six fucking months since my husband bit me and I woke up like him. So far the only one who has not been bitten by me is Rose. She was smart and realized that if she stayed far away from Jasper that she might not be attacked.
I feel bad that I did bite them, but I can't seem to control myself sometimes. The thoughts tumbling around inside my head is overwhelming at times. Its like sensory overload and I just flip out. Jasper, Peter and Char all keep telling me that this is normal, although according to them I'm better controlled than the average newborn.
Peter has received the most bites being the asshole he is. I must admit though that most of them were done fighting. Everyone felt that I needed to be trained to fight, although Jasper couldn't seem to bring himself to fight me. I refused to fight at first and that's how Peter ended up with more bites from me than anyone else.
He would goad me until I got pissed off and attacked him. At first he would always win, but as time went on it started to become where I could at least hold my own with him. I finally figured out what he was doing one day when I saw that he was ready for my attack.
That happened the third time he did it. After that he would tell me when to meet him in the yard for training. Jasper always stayed on the side lines yelling out what to do to keep Peter from beating me. I learned that I was faster and eventually I was able to use that speed to my advantage.
Jasper has begun to suspect that my speed won't diminish. Apparently the older I get into my first year the less strength I have. That has happened, I'm not as strong as I used to be, but I'm still stronger than the others right now.
My speed however is still faster than even Edward was. At least that's what Jasper and Emmett tell me. With Peter and Jasper's help I have learned how to use it. Peter says that I was born to be a vampire and to fight as one.
We have also figured out that my instincts are sharper than most vampires. Its almost like Peter's "knowing shit", but where he gets pictures and feelings with those pictures, I just get feelings. So far they have helped me when I listened to them.
There was the first time they were screaming at me not to head in a certain direction. Jasper and I were out hunting. Since I need so much blood right now I have been hunting both humans and animals. We were hunting for some mountain lion as they are my favorite animal. I ignored what my instincts were telling me and went in that direction anyway.
Turns out there was a whole family that was camping and if Jasper hadn't been able to grab me I would have killed them all. The only reason he had been able to catch me was because he sent me intense lust. It stopped me in my tracks.
I found out when fighting Peter, Char or Emmett that if I really concentrate then I can use it to know which way to go when they lunge or how they are going to try to overpower me. Jasper finally joined in to train me to just let it guide me as I fight my opponent, no matter who it is.
Its not the same as letting my instincts go when I'm hunting. I still have my senses about me and can think rationally. Its just simply knowing where to go, how to move or even when I should or shouldn't do something. The others have learned to rely on it as much as Peter's "knowing shit".
It actually comes in handy while hunting humans. It kicked in big time the first time I went to hunt for human scum. Peter, Char and Jasper has used both Peter's gift and Jasper's to find the drug dealers, murderers, rapist and other criminals. With my instincts I can usually find them while the crime is in progress.
My first taste of human blood was the lowest of the low life. Jasper, Char and Peter were with me as they knew I didn't want to harm an innocent person. Since Em and Rose still hunt animals they chose to stay at the house.
They told me that they sometimes just walked around until either Jasper got some emotions from someone or Peter's gift told him that someone was not so nice. Since this was my first time, they would pick someone for me. That fucking pissed me off, until I remembered that they were just trying to keep me from killing what they called an innocent person.
So we were doing just that in a very seedy part of the town we were in. Something was telling me to go in a certain direction. At first they tried to stop me because we were headed into a residential area, but I kept telling them I just felt like I should go in that direction.
It didn't take long to find exactly what we were looking for. It was a house that was at the end of the street I had led us down. All the houses were dark except for this one. We heard the noises as soon as we turned onto the street. Sounds that no human would be able to hear and if they did it would probably make their blood run cold.
It was the sounds of torture, whimpering and crying. Not of an adult, but that of a child. Turns out that the house was full of men who get paid for child pornography. Pictures of children of all ages and sexes. Both just naked and in different acts of sex. Even as vampires it made us sick to see just how depraved these men were.
There were a total of six men and two adult females. There were four young girls and three boys. It seems that all of the adults took great pleasure in having sex in some form with these children. It would end tonight.
Jasper knocked the kids out with his gift and then we decided that the adults needed to know how they made their victims feel. Jasper sent them what the kids here were feeling. Fear was their last emotion as they all got to watch us drain their companions. Turns out I was a natural at killing the scum.
I don't know if it was the fact that we had saved those children or that it was human blood, but I found myself loving the taste of their blood. After we were done, we knew we couldn't just leave the children here, but we couldn't take them with us either.
So we took the van that they had used to take the children from their homes and put the sleeping children in the back. We also loaded up the van with some of their movies and pictures, along with their wallets that had their address on it which was the house we were at.
We drove it to the nearest police station and parked it right in front. Peter then made a call telling the police that they needed to go and check the van parked out front. Jasper had stayed behind to start the fire that would destroy the evidence on how these monsters had died.
I didn't want to leave until I knew they had found the children. The youngest couldn't have been older than three or four. They had all woken up by the time we had gotten to the police station. They had all seen us and probably could describe us, but that didn't matter as obviously they would never find us.
When the police found them and asked them what was going on, I was just curious and wanted to hear what they would say. They told them all about the bad guys and things they made them do. When asked how they ended up in the back of the van and away from them, their exact words made me know that I had done the right thing by killing these monsters. They said, "We're not sure how we got here, but we think it was the angels that brought us here. There were four and they were the most beautiful angels we have ever seen. They probably brought us here. All we know is that they put us to sleep and we ended up here."
The most amazing thing was that I was able to control myself from going on a killing spree. It wasn't because I am that controlled, its because I can hold my breath. Jasper was quite pleased with how well I had done. He had half expected me to go wild with blood lust, but I think it was the knowledge that there were children in the house that helped me.
In the meantime, while trying to get used to the sensory overload and other shit that comes with being a newborn, shit was happening in and around Forks. It seems that Edward and Alice had abandoned any form of helping with Victoria. Now they were focused on finding Jasper and I.
They were busy following any leads they could. Obviously, they were always wrong and it led them nowhere. Any leads they thought they had were so far off. Mostly because no one had seen us and the leads that they got from Alice's visions were also way off.
Peter says its because she can't see me at all. Apparently I have a mental shield. Its what kept Edward from reading my mind. I have learned how to use it to protect others around me, but its not a physical shield. It keeps Alice from seeing any of us and that's perfectly alright by me. I do need to confront both of them so they'll fucking leave us alone, but I want to do it on my terms and my way.
We are kept up to date on what's going on in Forks by Rose and Emmett as they call Carlisle and Esme about once a week. They are able to find out what dumb and dumber are up to and they never give anything away except to say that I'm doing well and I'm safe and happy. We would save all the good news for when we got there.
Carlisle and Esme promised Rose and Emmett that they would keep their phone calls to themselves. I think it had something to do with the fact that they had watched as Edward and Alice seemed to become obsessed with finding us. Seems they wanted to save me from the monster and get the monster to take his rightful place as Alice's puppet.
I find it hard to believe that I ever loved the asshole. Even now he was more interested in finding me than trying to take care of the problem, the problem being Victoria. I think it might have something to do with the fact that he isn't able to control us.
I finally realized that that is what he loved about me, the fact that he could control me and keep shit away from me or at least he tried to. Our relationship had never been a healthy one. I was a silly teenage girl who was so in love with him at the time that I probably would have let him continue to control me.
It had been decided that it was time to go and take care of Victoria. Everyone said that I can hold my own in a fight and I was able to control myself around humans now. Peter and Jasper had spoken to a few friends to try to get them to help us take care of not only Victoria, but her fucking army as well. We sure as hell couldn't count on Edward and Alice to help.
They had agreed to help and to meet us in Forks. Since the Cullens were back at the house there, it would be perfect for us. If Edward and Alice happened to show up, that was alright too, as long as they helped. I have a feeling that the only help they want to give, is to help themselves.
As soon as the ones that Peter and Jasper had asked to come and help us were all there, we would go and take care of Victoria. Carlisle and Esme had taken it upon themselves to join forces with what was left of the wolf pack and had actually been able to locate where Victoria was staying as she built her army.
They only went into Seattle to try to find her. They all agreed that they only wanted her location to be passed on to those who would have a better chance at getting her, us. Well, more specifically Peter, Jasper and Char, as they were the ones with the most battle experience.
Carlisle being the diplomat that he is, was able to convince the wolves to not try to move in before we got there. They would be there for the final confrontation. They hadn't been told about my change yet.
We decided to drive to Forks. It kept me off a plane full of humans. It would also let us have more control of our transportation. There was no fucking way that we were going to have to ask Edward or Alice for the use of their cars.
The drive was good and without any problems. Since Carlisle had the treaty with the wolves we planned on sticking to animals while there. While we didn't really fucking care what anyone thought of our diet, we also didn't want to cause any problems for Carlisle.
When we pulled up to the house we weren't too surprised to see that Garrett was already there. He was always ready for a good fight according to Peter and Jasper, but apparently it wasn't the fight with Victoria he was wanting to watch. It was the fight between us and Edward and Alice.
Carlisle and Esme I don't think were too surprised to see me as a vampire. They said that they knew that I would eventually be turned and it only made sense to be turned by my mate. Yes, they had finally accepted that I was not Edward's mate, but Jasper's.
I hadn't met Garrett before and I felt so out of it as Jasper, Peter as well as everyone else all knew Garrett. They sat around talking and telling about fights they had been in. I really just wanted to be alone with Jasper, but he seemed to be enjoying himself being with his old friend, and family.
I have to admit that I had nothing to put into the conversation. They were all so busy talking and they all were excited and so I started feeling like the third wheel. I was feeling uncomfortable, so I decided to slip out. The sad thing is that no one even realized I had left.
I didn't really mind. I had a chance to walk around and decided to go and look at where the house I used to live in with my dad, used to be. I didn't really have to worry about anyone seeing me as it was in the middle of the night and most humans were asleep.
I spent a few minutes at the empty lot where our house used to be. Then went to the cemetery to visit my dad. I wanted to tell him everything that had happened, finding my mate, falling in love, getting married and then being turned.
I was still there when I felt arms circle around me. I had been so engrossed in talking to dad that I never even heard him come up behind me. I started to snuggle into the embrace when I realized that the feel was all wrong.
I spun around, hoping to see my mate's face. Instead I was looking into the eyes of Edward Fucking Cullen. . .
