Seth/Bree, Fred/OFC
Bree
I watched as my clone was being tortured from behind. The hardest thing was feeling what she was feeling, trying not scream in pain or the plan was screwed. The "honey-eyed" male vampire with the blonde hair didn't like me, like I was a threat. Well, I don't blame him. Lucky I can telepathy tell her what to say to the Voturi. And I can numb the pain she was feeling.
"Riley told us that we had to destroy the strange yellow-eyes here," The fake me babbled willingly. "He said it would be easy. He said that the city was theirs, and they were coming to get us. He said once they were gone, all the blood would be ours. He gave us her scent." She lifted her hand and pointed at the human's direction.
"He said we would know that we had the right coven, because she would be with them. He said whoever got her first would have her."
"It looks like Riley was wrong about the easy part," Jane noted. I nodded which made fake Bree too. She pointed at Carlisle. "That one said that they wouldn't hurt me if I stopped fighting."
"But it wasn't his choosing, young one," Jane said in a gentle tone. "Broken rules demand a consequence."
The fake Bree didn't understand, but I did.
Jane looked at the fake me and to this huge vampire who looks like he's on the roids. "Felix?"
"Wait," The red-haired one said. "We can explained the rules to Bree. She looks willingly to learn them. She didn't know what she was doing."
"Of course we would take Bree into our coven,"
"We don't make exceptions," She said. "And we don't give second chances. It's bad for our reputation." She shifted her eyes to the human. "Caius would be so please to hear that you're still human, Bella."
"The date is set," The pixie one told Jane. "Perhaps we'll come to visit you in a few months."
Jane's smile faded. "It was nice to see you Carlisle. Well, until we meet again..."
He nodded, with pain on his face. I would be happy to be in his family.
"Take care of that, Felix," Jane said, nodding toward the fake me. "I want to go home."
"Don't watch," The red hair whispered to Bella.
Fake Bree though he was taking to her so she too close her eyes. I couldn't bear to look. It was a deep, rumbling sound with a high pitched keen. I heard a sicken crunching and snapping. As I slowly opened my eyes, gray smokes with floating into the sky. The police vampires had disappeared into the forest.
"They're gone," Bella said.
"You can come out now," The blonde male said.
I slowly walked out of the bushes to revealed myself. They all looked at me with shocked faces.
"We just saw her die," Bella said. "How is-"
"Jasper, you kept her hidden?" Carlisle asked.
"She can make physical copies of herself," Jasper explained. "I though we should try it on the Voturi to see if they were to fall for it."
He laughed. "And they did."
"It wasn't fair how they would just kill me like that. I didn't do anything wrong," I said with pure anger.
"Hey," Bella said. "At least you get a second chance at life."
I never though that I would truly be alive after that day. It seemed like a bad dream that I wanted to wake up from but couldn't find a way. But Diego being dead was no dream. The thing was that I really wanted to die, but somehow there was this voice in my head that told me to stay alive.
And I wonder why?
Today, my adoptive brothers, Emmett and Edward, took my out on my first hunt. The Cullens don't feed on human blood, only animals. I find that to be kind of cool. Emmett said that it's the only way I would survive. Or that the Voturi will come to kill me. Edward said that Emmett loves to joke around and that last part wasn't really truth. Wasn't really.
But the fun thing about this hunting trip is that I was stronger, even stronger than Emmett. And I was faster. The wind blew my hair out behind me. The air felt warm. Everything was so blurry when I ran, this was way too damn unrealistic. Like the tree branches that hit my skin felt like weightless feathers where to a human it was sharp like thorns and hit the skin like swift hitting whips.
Hell, this was more like flying than running.
"Bree," Edward calls out dryly. "Do you want to make it to Canada?"
"Sorry," I said. "But it's such a high for me."
"Damn, girl you're..." Emmett began. "A show off."
I narrow my eyes at him. Then I focus my attention to Edward. "So what are we hunting?"
"Elk," He said. "I though it would be more easy..."
I wasn't going to fight with him because I was way too hungry to give a shit. I smell this huge deer, going off to the Northwest. And then I saw it. This alpha male drinking from the river along with a herd of deer.
All I wanted was the big one. I could even hear the large heart, thumping hard as it was pumping blood into its veins.
"Bree, wait."
I could focus on was that huge deer. I stalked the deer very quietly, watching how its muscles moved from the inside of its think skin. And before I could make my move, I heard a deep growling sound. I watched in anger as the deer took off, alerted by the sound. Then came footsteps coming from behind me. I snapped my head over my shoulder to who was the very unlucky predator that was about to become the prey.
It was a wolf. He had a cinnamon mixed with an earthy smell. His fur was a sandy brown color. This was one of werewolves, but I didn't know who?
He stares at me. His beautiful large brown eyes were wide like he was lost from his mom and just found her.
"Who are you?" I whispered.
Seth. I didn't hear it from his mouth, but in my head.
