《The Golden Swan // Edward Cullen》Chapter fourteen
Advertisement
They quickly pull up to the Cullen's house. Edward, Alice and Emmett walked Brea and Bella up to the house, Edward pulled Brea into his chest when Laurent walked out of the door... Alice and Emmett immediately took defensive positions but Dr. Cullen appeared, putting his hand up.
"He came to warn us! About James," Dr. Cullen said.
They back off slightly.
"I've grown tired of his game, but he's got unparalleled senses. Absolutely lethal. I've never seen anything like him in three hundred years.....and the woman, Victoria, will back him. Don't underestimate her," Laurent sighed.
Dr. Cullen nodded.
Laurent looked at Edward and Brea, apologetic.
"I'm truly sorry for what's been unleashed here," Laurent said.
The side door bursts open... Edward, Brea, Bella and the Cullen's enter a large garage. Everyone but Rosalie springs into action, opening cupboards for supplies and extra batteries. They quickly load up the vehicles.
"I've had to fight our kind before! We're hard to kill," Jasper spoke up.
"But not impossible. We'll tear him up," Edward said.
"We'll rip him apart with our hands, then burn the pieces," Emmett smiled.
"This is insane! You all should not put yourselves in danger for us," Bella said.
"Bella," Brea whispered.
"Too late! Although I don't have a problem with Brea, it's you... Bella!" Rosalie snapped.
Bella jumped....moving behind Brea.
"I'll run Brea and Bella south, while you lead the tracker away," Edward replied, grabbing two sets of keys.
"No, Edward...The tracker thinks you won't leave Brea. He'll follow you," Dr. Cullen said.
"I'll go with Brea and Bella! Jasper and I will drive her south! I'll keep her safe! I'll keep them both safe," Alice smiled.
"Can you try and keep your thoughts to yourself?" Edward asked.

Alice nodded.
Edward opened one of Brea's suitcase and handed Esme and Rosalie a couple of jackets.
"Esme, Rosalie, put these one so the tracker will pick up Brea's scent," Edward said.
"I like Brea, I really do! But why should I? What is she to me? Just a danger you've inflicted on us," Rosalie growled.
Brea dropped her head...Rosalie noticed that her words hurt her, she instantly regretted them.
"Rosalie! Brea is with Edward. She's a part of this family now and we protect our family," Dr. Cullen sighed, squeezing Edward's shoulder.
Edward walked over to Brea....taking a few moments with her.
"If you get hurt, I swear to god..." Brea said but was cut off.
"We-I won't, there's five of us and two of them! When it's done, I'll come get you and Bella," Edward replied.
Edward pulled her closer, looking deeply into her eyes.
"You are my life now!" Edward smiled, pulling her in for one last hug.
Brea pulled away... and looking up at Edward.
Edward nodded...leaning in. His fingers traced her lips, and he quickly cupped her face...kissing her soft lips.
They pulled away... both wanting more.
Bella placed a hand on Brea's shoulder....
Brea took one last look at Edward and quickly got into the car.
Alice quickly sped out of the garage.
Brea and Bella looked out of the window... watching the trees turn into nothing but open fields and then into a familiar hot desert.
"Mom, It's me again. You must have let your phone die, again. Anyway, Bella and I are no longer in Forks anymore but we're okay. I'll explain everything when you call," Brea sighed, leaving her mother yet another voicemail.
Brea eyes open, she sat up looking over at her sister who was peacefully sleeping. She slowly crawled out of bed and made her way into the living room.

Jasper and Alice stare blankly at the tv. Several plates of hot food crowded the table in front of them.
Brea looked down at her phone and sighed.
"I-I wish he'd call," Brea spoke up.
"You need to eat," Alice said, looking over at Brea.
Brea shook her head and sat down next to them.
"They could get hurt or worse. It's not worth it," Brea replied.
"Yes! It is," Jasper spoke up.
Brea looked at him with a surprised expression, Jasper hadn't really talked to her very much.
"Edward's changed since he found you! And none of us want to look into his eyes for the next hundred years if he loses you! So believe me when I say it's worth it. You are worth it," Jasper smiled.
Suddenly, Both Brea and Alice grabbed their heads.
"What do you see?" Jasper asked, holding Alice.
"The tracker. He's changed his course," Both Brea and Alice said.
Jasper quickly sets a pad and paper, pencil in front of Alice.
"Where will it take him, Alice?" Jasper asked.
Brea closed her eyes. A disorienting vision of him standing in a room full of mirrors.
"Mirrors! It's a room of mirrors," Alice said, grabbing Brea's hand.
"W-Wow! What the hell just happened!" Brea replied, quickly standing up.
"H-How?" Alice asked, looking at Brea.
Bella stood in the doorway.
"How do the visions work? I thought they weren't always certain," Bella spoke up.
"She sees the course people are on, while they're on it! If they change their minds, the visions will change," Jasper said.
Bella walked closer.
"So the course James is on now will lead him to... a ballet studio?" Bella asked, quickly looking over at Brea.
"You've been here?" Alice asked, looking at both sisters.
"N-No. I don't know, Bella used to take ballet lessons as a kid...I always sat in the corner and read. The school had an arch like that," Brea said.
"Was your school here in Phoenix?" Jasper asked. Looking at Bella.
"Yeah, around the corner from my house. But I haven't been there in over ten years," Bella said.
"Do you have any reason to go back there?" Jasper asked, turning to look at Brea.
"No! Hell no! We-I hated that place, and I never danced," Brea sighed.
Suddenly Brea's phone started to ring. She looked down at it and smiled.
"Edward! Are you alright?" Brea asked.
"I'm coming to get you and Bella. We lost the tracker. The woman is still in the area. Rosalie and Esme are protecting your father," Edward said.
"I know! I saw Alice's visions. Edward this is all my fault. You warned me, but I didn't think. I just...." Brea replied but was cut off.
"Brea, we're in too deep. We can't change how we feel now," Edward smiled.
"No...we can't. When will you get here?" Brea asked.
"In a couple of hours! Then you and I....and Bella will go somewhere. Together. The others will keep hunting. Brea, I swear to you, I'll do whatever it takes to make you safe again," Edward said....meaning every word.
Brea's eyes started to well up.

Quirks? Heroes? Buttcheek clenching superpower? The only thing that comforts me is the fact that this does remind me of 'Earth'...right? Watch as the Overpowered Pirate and her love Portugas D. Ace wreck havoc across the world of heroes and villains. Loser: 'You've got to choose a side!' Heroes or Villains? Me: Well, we're Pirates so...fuck you both Loser 2: What kind of Pirate owns a megacorporation?? Me: My bad...*cough* We're filthy rich Pirates. Wanna sign up? Welcome to the Charlotte Group.

Absolutely A story about the conflict between the ideals Peace and Justice against Freedom and Privacy. The realization of the impossibility of Total freedom and the lengths she goes to see it done. Just add massive explosions, lots of swearing, and comedy to the mix. This will be a 2 Part story. First part: PARADISE (A.N): If someone sends me a better title, I will use that. Deal is still up as well :D) Disclaimers: It is to my great displeasure and sadness that I do not own One Piece or My Hero Academia. Hints of Undertale as well...I don't own that either. That is just really really sad. Nor do I own the cover art...but it's pretty close to how I envision Syrup in her late teen years :) On the flip side, I do own Charlotte Syrup, my OC and a couple more extras in the story. Note: This is the sequel to 'Welcome to the Charlotte Family' but while it is recommended to read it before, it is not needed. Separate Universe, different characters and story. But remember, heavily OP MC! But I try to keep it interesting. Give it a try and enjoy!

The Dawnfire Archives
It begins in the endless wastes, with an unknown man arriving at the bottom of the tallest mountain in existence. A mysterious voice provides few directions, bringing more questions than answers. Regardless, after choosing a name and weapon... the man begins to climb. He will not be alone on this journey. A young individual from a different reality has also made his way to The Climb. But what does their arrival bode for the people of this world? And where does climbing the mountain truly lead? This is my second novel on Royal Road, the first being "Beyond the Horizon's Eye", and the third being "The Card Thief of Culnivar". This story is much more GameLIT than Xianxia, and takes place in a different setting with an entirely new cast of characters. It does, however, contain several ties between the stories. Average post between 1000 - 3000 words.
