I had my family gather in a group to figure out what each family member can show. Liz sat about 5 feet away, so we whispered. Alice, Jasper and I would tunjuk her that some Vampires had a gift above all else. Emmett would tunjuk her the strength. Carlisle would tunjuk her the speed. Rosalie would tunjuk her the indestructability. Esme would tunjuk her the senses.
"Are anda ready,"I asked as I turned to face her.
"Ready as I'll ever be."
"First Emmett and Rosalie, they will demonstrate our physical strength and how impenetrable we are. Only vampire teeth and werewolf teeth can cut through our skin."
Rosalie got up and pulled Emmett with her. Emmett picked up a boulder that was at least three times his weight, then he threw it at Rosalie. She watched as the rock hurtled toward her, but obediently stood still.
Liz watched with wide eyes as the blond vampire just stood there, like everything was normal. Then the rock hit. It shattered into a billion pieces as it touched her skin.
"Wow,"Liz whispered as her already wide eyes got bigger.
"Now Carlisle will tunjuk anda how fast we can run, he's going to lap this clearing 5 times. So don't blink."
Carlisle stood up, then he took off. I watched as his 5 laps took merely 2 and a half seconds.
"You can run that fast?"
"Yes,"I answered greatful that she was still sitting there.
"What's next?"
"The senses, Esme is going to stand across the clearing from you. anda are going to hold up an amount of fingers from 1 to 5 and she will say what number anda are holding up. Emmett will be standing behind you, facing the same direction Esme is and he will tell anda what Esme said."
I nodded towards Esme and she flitted across the field and Emmett took his place behind Liz, who was now standing.
She held up 4 fingers, than Esme berkata 4 too low for Liz to hear, while Emmett berkata 4 loud enough for her to hear. She gasped. Then this continued in 1,3,2,5,5,4,2,5. She still had her mouth hanging wide open. I smiled.
She finally gave up.
"So, that's what Vampires do. What about Alice and Jasper?"
"Well Alice, Jasper and I are going to deminstrate some gifts that all humans bring with them when they become vampires. At least that is what Carlisle believes. Carlisle brought his compassion, Esme, her ability to love, Rosalie, her beauty and Emmett brought his strength. He is stronger than the rest of us. But Jasper, Alice and I brought something special, an extra power anda could call it. Jasper can feel and change the emotional atmosphere around him. We believe that when he was human, he could sense how some one was feeling."
I nodded to Jasper and we could feel sudden anger emerge from our very cores, then we were all calm. A very strange sensation.
"Did anda feel that?"
"Yeah, that was really weird."
"Alice must have had some precognition. She can see the future at will, like she can see Vampires best because she is one, she can see humans okay, because she was one, and she can't see Serigala Jadian because she never was one."
I nodded to Alice. She stepped ke hadapan and turned around.
"I am going to tell anda the future. I am going to tell anda the forecast. There will be a nice sunny hari on Tuesday, and there will be a thunderstorm on Friday, so we'll be able to play baseball, and it will be dry up here, it will go around the mountains."
"Okay,"Liz replied, looking up at the sky.
"Would anda like to watch?"
"That would be cool."
"But on Tuesday, I'm going to take anda to a clearing and I want to tunjuk anda something else about being a vampire that I can't tunjuk anda now.
"And I can read minds, Carlisle thinks it's because when I was human, I was sensitive to the thoughts around me."
She gasped.
"Did anda ever listen to my thoughts? I mean on the way here especially,"she asked outraged, but with a hint of embarrasment hidden underneath.
I looked down, ashamed.
"Yes, I know what anda did, but I think your right, and if anda were a vampire, I have a feeling you'd have a power, I'm truly sorry, I just wanted to know you. I understand if anda don't like me anymore and if your mad, anda can still stay here, I'll just go somewhere else."
She stared at me in outrage then she took off running at full speed. I followed her, just to make sure she didn't hurt herself. She ran back the way we came, which surprisingly she seemed to remember perfectly.
I can't believe it. He knows my deepest, darkest secret and he's okay with it? How can he be okay with a murderer?
She let the forest drown out her thoughts so that I couldn't hear them anymore. I still followed her through the trees and into the house. She ran upstairs and jumped on the bed, laying facedown. She cried herself to sleep.
"Are anda ready,"I asked as I turned to face her.
"Ready as I'll ever be."
"First Emmett and Rosalie, they will demonstrate our physical strength and how impenetrable we are. Only vampire teeth and werewolf teeth can cut through our skin."
Rosalie got up and pulled Emmett with her. Emmett picked up a boulder that was at least three times his weight, then he threw it at Rosalie. She watched as the rock hurtled toward her, but obediently stood still.
