The Twilight Saga Fallen Star

Chapter 6. Sacrifice

Over the days Nessie developed a fixed routine that focused mainly on Emma. In the mornings they had their future telling sessions. Nessie loved to see into her future, she enjoyed it too much that it had me worried about her getting dependent on it.

The rest of the day was planned by Emma, who suggested to create a home school environment for Nessie, where family members would be the teachers. She even had a room assigned for the lessons with a board on and everything.

She was responsible for Etiquette and English, Edward Math and Music, Carlisle was of course responsible for Science, while Esme taught her History, Emmet and Jasper had PE and Martial arts, Rosalie Literature, and Alice was responsible for Arts and design.

I couldn't think of a subject that I was so special at to teach my own daughter, just another part of my magnificent human days inheritance. My time with Nessie was labeled "Precious mother and daughter time", a sweet way to put a title to my inadequacy. I decided to teach her about life, about human experiences. After all I am just a recent vampire, I am more in touch with my human side than any of them, or at least I want to believe I am.

After the lessons were over, Emma and Nessie had their own special time as well. They shared a great amount of time everyday working together on enhancing Nessie's special ability. Emma was trying to help her project her visions, to try and share her thoughts with others without having to touch them. The ability that Emma never mastered with her own ability. They spend hours and hours of practice and trials. Trials that even involved Edward and left me out completely.

The bond between them was getting stronger by the day. Nessie filled up Jacob's absence with Emma, to the point that she never mention his name anymore. I didn't know if I should be grateful or worried. I just waited impatiently for my dad to set a wedding date, so I can at least bring Jacob into our lives again.

When the date was finally set, the Cullen's weren't happy about it........ not at all.

"It's a blood moon night," Jasper stated suspiciously.

"A blood moon!!! The witches blood moon?!! You can't be serious!!" I wondered intrigued. I didn't believe any of this really existed.

"Yes, Bella. Blood moon nights don't only boost witches' powers, but wolfs too. The only creatures that get weakened by it are us," Edward explained, sharing the same doubts as Jasper.

"You mean to say witches exist?!" I asked overwhelmed.

"Oh, yes. There are some really powerful ones too. All this time in the supernatural world Bella, and you still wonder about things!" Edward added.

"You think it's intended?" Emmet asked, keeping his voice neutral.

"I don't really know. But it can't be all coincidence, especially after all that happened between us," Carlisle said worried and skeptical.

"May be it's because of what happened between us. May be they are just scared and they chose that date to protect themselves," Esme said, giving the wolfs the benefits of the doubt.

"I think it's planned, remember Charlie said that Sue is the one choosing the date," Jasper stressed.

"Ever since the date has been set and the decision was made, I can't see anything beyond the wedding ceremony, no matter how hard I look into it, and that just doesn't seem right," Alice Said, apprehensive, adding to the worries of the whole family.

"Well, I can't miss my father's wedding, none of you can," I said firmly in a non negotiable tone.

"we can't take Emma, and we definitely won't leave her behind now," Edward gave his opinion, an opinion that is also not up for discussion.
