(Minor mention of attempted SA)

Bella and Malia admittedly did not sleep very much. They were both wondering about new wardrobes. Malia had no idea what to look for so her thoughts were more in wonder. Bella, on the other hand, wants to completely start over. New Bella, new appearance.

When Cora woke up, Bella immediately asked, "How do you think I would look with blonde hair and up to my shoulders?"

Cora and even Malia look over and study her. "Similar to mom's?" Malia asked.

"Yeah, but short," Bella answered.

"I think if you styled it right, you would look great with it even though you'll be a blonde house cat now," Cora said.

"That actually happens? I thought even with the wolves it didn't matter," Bella answered, now grabbing some clothes that were left out for her.

"No, with the wolves it didn't matter, but when you accidently dye your uncle's hair green and he turned into a green house cat, I would say it works," Cora answered, now getting dressed.

Malia laughed, "that was funny," she said, slowly dragging herself up. She was still adjusting to walking on her two legs.

There was a knock on the door, "Is it safe?" Stiles asked through the door.

"Yes," all three girls respond.

Stiles opened the door, "Peter is up and walking and healed. Bella, Peter, you're going shopping."

Malia and Bella immediately groan making Cora and stiles snicker. Charlie peaks his head in form behind Stiles, "Cora's going with to make sure you three actually shop."

Bella and Malia dragged themselves along but couldn't help but be in awe at Peter's confident walk as went into the mall. "Partly the Alpha walk, partly hiding her pain walk," Cora told them. As they walked, some people looked confused, thinking Peter looked familiar, but couldn't place where, which was good for all of them especially since they would all take the Swan name. Peter would call herself Petra a few times as Peter wasn't a common name for a woman.

The four of them made their way into the hair salon. "Cut to her shoulders and lightened to blonde," Peter said, motioning to Bella who smiled. Peter had very gladly went with Bella's suggestion. "She just needs a cut," Peter motioned to Bella, "And unfortunately I've had a run-in with some flames," Peter started getting startled laughs out of her daughters and niece, "I need a cut and this shaved part a bit more even," she said, motioning to her own hair.

*******

An hour later, the four walk out with Cora (who was excited to leave since she was boooooooorrrrreeeed) and made their way for smoothies, cause why not. "So tell me about the ex we have to kill," Peter requested.

Bella, who hasn't stopped touching her new blonde hair, looked up at her stepmother, "Well, the more I've thought about it, the more he seemed controlling. He said he couldn't read my mind, but it seemed more like he could still influence my thoughts," Bella theorized.

"It would make sense, but it would also mean you weren't completely immune to the gifts the Cullens have, you might be now because of your change," Cora theorized.

"What were the gifts?" Malia asked.

"Jasper, who we like, is an empathy who has difficulty being around Edward when he was around Bella because bloodlust is an illusion. The bitch who pretends to be his mate and supposedly see the future, but really, she sees outcomes. Those are the main three. Rosalie, our ancestor has enhanced beauty so she catches a lot of attention. Emmett, her mate, has super strength even for a vampire. Carlisle, the coven leader is able to be around human blood with no problem. Esme is motherly," Cora listed off.

"And who do we like?" Malia asked.

"Jasper, Rosalie of course, and Emmett," Bella said.

"And who do we kill?"

"Edward and Alice," Peter, Bella, and Cora say.

"And what is the difference between see in the future and seeing outcomes?" Malia asked.

(SA warning)

"Think of it this way," Cora started, "Neither one of you get mad, but Bella had almost been attacked by humans and we will leave it at that. Alice could've seen it coming either way, but she could've seen if Edward could play hero if he saved her vs if he didn't. Then again, maybe he wanted to play hero anyway and had Alice see what would happen if he sent them if he really could have some control over the mind," Cora theorized.

Malia and Peter scowled, "I want him dead," Bella said in a low growl.

(Warning Over)

"But on a more positive note, let's go shop," Cora said with a smile. The three others groaned making the werewolf snicker, "Do you want to remain in other people's clothes?"

"Yes," Peter said.

Cora looked at Bella and Malia, "Do you want to be in other people's clothes when you meet your mates?" she asked making the other two look at her with wide eyes and shake their heads. "Thought so," Cora said, getting up. "Let's go, bras first."

Bella turned red when she entered Victoria's Secret. First, the irony of the name, which made Cora snicker and tell her cousin and aunt. "Come on, Bella, let's get this over with," Peter said, dragging Bella and Cora to the back to get measured.

Overhearing the sizes the employee called out, Peter mouthed 'Black and Nude' to Cora for bra colors. Cora nods, walking away, soon hearing Peter's size.

"Why these?" Bella asked.

"Because if you wear white your bra needs to be invisible unless you intentionally want it to show," Peter explained, "The lighter nude is for Bella because you have the lighter skin tone, Malia the darker one is yours. Take your picks of the black and if you suddenly want another color, we'll look," Peter said, holding her own choices.

Then they went through the other stores, Bella and Malia trying to figure out their own styles. Peter had grabbed basic tops and jeans because she didn't really care about the everyday fashion. Malia was kind of mix between her mother's style and Stiles' need to wear plaid flannels. Bella had discovered she liked more punk clothing which nobody else minded which made her happy to make her own decisions. Peter had beamed at Bella when she asked if could have a leather jacket, the werefeline finding out its practically a Hale clothing staple.

They were finding at least one dress (pantsuit for Bella because she refused a dress) for them all when Malia came speeding over. "I just saw a girl and she said her name was Allison Argent," she said. Peter immediately ushered all of them out acting completely normal and not like they wanted to kill the family of hunters. The dresses and pantsuits were long forgotten.
