The Second hybrid

Chapter 4

Bella (V.O)

Everything was falling into place. Even the Volturi seemed to accept my new status. Thought they’d want proof eventually. It seemed we had only one enemy left. Time. Renesmee aand Kataline were growing too fast. We all worried about how long we would have with them. IT just made every moment more precious. 

(Kataline’s Pov)

Renesmee now looks 6 or 7 years old. I looked 12 or 13. We were playing in the snow with momma and Jacob. He was in his wolf form. I was making snow angels while she caught snowflakes. 

“Look, a snowflake” 

I ran to Renny. She showed me while smiling. I smiled widely. 

“It’s beautiful. Why don’t you and Kata go get another one” 

We ran off to play. I knew they were watching us. I decided to do something nice. I twirled my arm and a tiara of snowflakes were on Renesmee’s head. She gasped out of excitement. I smiled as she hugged me. I saw something from the corner of my eye as Renesmee jumped up and caught another snowflake. 

I turned and saw a woman. Renesmee and I ran to momma. We hugged her. 

“Who is that?” 

“I think that’s our cousin from Denali. Irina!” 

The woman Irina ran off. I frowned some. Momma and Jacob took us back home. We were upset that we couldn't play in the snow some more. I was sitting next to Uncle Jasper. 

“Tanya convinced Irina to come reconcile with us” 

“It looks like she changed her mind” 

“Seeing Jacob must have been too much for her” 

“Grandma, she didn’t glance at Jacob. Her eyes were on Ren and I” 

Everyone looked at me. 

“Wish I could have just spoken to her” 

“She’s family. She’ll come around” 

Daddy, Renesmee, and I began to play the piano. Soon, everyone was gathered around. They were listening to us play. 

While playing, I heard a crash. I turned and saw Aunt Alice had dropped a vase of flowers. 

“What is it Alice” 

“The Volturi, they’re coming for us. Aro, Caius, Marcus, the Guard and Irina” 

“Honeys, come here” 

Renesmee and I went to momma. She put her arms around us. 

“Why?” 

“What did Irina see in the woods?” 

“We were just walking” 

“Ness and Kat were catching snowflakes” 

“Of course. Irina thinks Renesmee and Kataline are immortal children. More Renesmee than Kataline” 

“What’s an immortal child?” 

“The immortal children were very beautiful. So enchanting. To be near them was to love them. But their development was frozen at the age they were turned. They couldn’t be taught or restrained. A single tantrum could destroy an entire village. Humans heard about the devastation. Stories spread. The Volturi were forced to intervene. Since the children couldn’t protect our secret, they had to be destroyed.” 

My eyes were wide. He continued

 

“Their creators grew very attached and fought to protect them. Long-established covens were torn apart. Countless humans were slaughtered. Traiditions, friends, even families. Lost” 

“So the Denalis’ mother made an immortal child?” 

“Yes. And she paid the price” 

“Well, Renesmee and Kataline’s nothing like those children. They were born, not bitten. They grow every single day” 

“So can’t you just explain that to the Volturi?” 

“Aro had enough proof in Irina’s thoughts” 

“So we fight” 

“Their offensive weapons are too powerful. No one can stand against Jane” 

“Alec’s even worse” 

“Well, then we convince them” 

“They’re coming to kill us, not to talk” 

“No you’re right. They won’t listen to us. But maybe others can convince them. Carlisle you have friends all over the world” 

I looked at everyone. I had a feeling things were gonna get complicated.
