Chương 28: No Title

" This is the life."

Damon is currently relaxing near the pool in his house, with Rosalie and Max accompanying him.

as the three of them say there in matching clothes as Rosalie wore and two-piece blue swimsuit with a shark design, Damon wore and Man wore match trunks as they spent the dag relaxing by the pool.

" Hey Damon are you sure we shouldn't do anything about the two vampires in town?" asked Max

Apparently while on a run yesterday Max had seen two vampires he had never seen before in the forest and came back to tell Damon.

"I'm sure, besides they should have left town by now, and even if they didn't they are no threat to us," answers Damon

' It appears that James and Victoria have started their hunt, I wonder if any of them regrets not leaving yet? but it might be too soon after all the years they have been together should hold them together a bit longer, but someone will leave, it just a matter of time and who will it be, from the looks of it things are still going like the cannon if so the Volturi will find out about me when that idiot Edward goes to them to die, it's either they see his missing arm and ask what happened or they read one of the minds of the others or even both, not that it matters, after all, any of them who comes for me will die.'

" Damon you know something about them right ?" ask Rosalie

" Indeed I do."

" tell me."

"fine, my guess would be they were passing through town and somehow managed to meet the Cullens and Bella was with them and I think you know how it goes after that," says Damon

" So, she brought trouble to them after all, I have a feeling this is just the beginning."

" that she did but it matters not as long as they don't involve us," says Damon as he turns and looks at her.

As he looks at her he can't help but smile, her transformation is progressing quite nicely, she has stopped shining in the sun and all her bodily functions have started working as a normal human woman once again, and with her soft and creamy skin, Damon can't help but thinks she looks better this way, especially with those bright blue eyes.

Right now nobody would think Rosalie was a vampire unless they knew before her change or they saw her do something a human shouldn't be able to do.

But even though she has gone through all that change the thing that has not changed as yet are her abilities, she still has the same speed-strength only increased to a barely noticeable amount and she has developed no new gift, this has really started to worry Damon but he knows it could just be it taking longer than he taught it would.

(with the Cullens)

Esme and Carlisle crouch atop a hill, looking down at the river. In the distance, below, they see Victoria run into their view as she stops then looks in their direction, when both Esme and Carlisle are sure she has their scent they speed off over a hill's crest near them.

While they were leading Victoria away, Edward, Esdyte, and Emmett were running through the forest tearing pieces of a shirt that belonged to Bella dropping pieces every now and then, but as Edward couldn't keep up with them Emmett had to carry him on his back.

And Jasper and Alice could be seen seeding down the highway in a jeep with jasper driving, Alice in the passenger seat, and Bella in the back currently talking on the phone, as her eyes were red clearly from crying.

" Mom, it's me again. You must have let your phone die. Anyway, I'm not in Forks anymore but I'm okay. I'll explain when you call back. says Bella

Then she hangs up the phone and looks out the window as the area around them just flashes by at the speed jasper is driving at, and soon it becomes night as they are now in a Hotel bedroom as Bella can be seen on the bed.

(Earlier with James)

He runs through the forest at the point where the Cullens had dropped a piece of clothing James speeds by, but a moment later he backtracks to that spot and bends down and picks up the piece of fabric and smells it.

'somethings not right.' thinks James

Knowing something is wrong he suddenly changes direction and rushes off following his instincts.

Back with Bella jasper and Allice as they were having a conversation, Alice suddenly stops and Jasper rushes to her and asks what she sees.

"The tracker has changed course."

Jasper quickly hands her a piece of paper and a pencil and asks.

"Where will this new course take him?"

Then Alice starts drawing.

Mirrors. It's a room of mirrors.

Alice begins to draw at super speed, closing her eyes, trying to see it clearly.

"How do the visions work? Edward said they weren't always certain," asked Bella

"She sees the course people are on, while they're on it. If they change their minds, the visions change," answered Jasper

Bella looks over Alice's shoulder to see the drawing.

"So the course James is on now will lead him to... a ballet studio?" asked Bella

"You've been here?" asked Alice

" No. I don't know. I used to take ballet lessons as a kid. The school had an arch like that." says Bella

"Was your school here in Phoenix?"

"Yeah, around the corner from my house. But I haven't been there in ten years."

"Do you have any reason to go now?"

"No. Hell, no. I hated the place."

Alice and Jasper share a look, trying to figure this out. Suddenly, Bella jumps as her cell phone rings. She picks it up. Sees the caller's I.D. and exhales relief.
