《The Golden Swan // Edward Cullen》Chapter twenty-four
Advertisement
Brea, Bella and Jacob are all sitting in the truck, while Bella drove along the La Push cliffs. Brea sat in the middle.....reading a book. Jacob was studying a grease blackened motorcycle crankshaft.
"We got lucky at the dump! You know how much a new crankshaft goes for?" Jacob asked.
"I-uh sure," Brea said, looking up from her book.
"So after I-we fix your bike, Where should we drive it?" Jacob asked.
"Someplace sunny," Brea replied.
"Like there's any place sunny around her," Jacob laughed.
"I-I know a place above the cloud line," Brea said, instantly regretting what she had said.
"Where is it? Jacob asked.
"Actually, it's too hard to get to," Brea sighed, thinking about how her and Edward used to lay in the meadow and talk.
"Okay! It's alright! I'm sure we'll find our sunny spot!" Jacob smiled.
"Actually, I-I was thinking if you and Bella.... Could take it for a spin," Brea replied.
"WHAT?" Bella asked.
"I'm trying to help you out," Brea whispered in her sister's ear.
Bella smiled, knowing what her sister was doing.... Bella turned and looked out the window, staring at the cliff. She froze when she noticed four men were standing on the edge, all were rough housing.
"Isn't that.....Sam Uley?" Bella asked.
"And his cult!" Jacob groaned.
Suddenly two guys throw someone off. Bella slammed on the breaks, jumping out of the truck.
"OH MY GOD, that looks like fun!" Brea said.
"WHAT! NO! STOP THEM!" Bella screamed.
Bella started to run towards them, but Brea grabbed her arm....pulling her back.
"They're not really fighting, Bella. They're cliff diving!" Jacob laughed.
"What, on purpose?" Bella asked.
Brea turned, looking at Sam....who was staring right back at her, she turned and looked over at Jacob and Bella.

"Most of us jump from lower down," Jacob said.
"I'd like to try it! But from higher up," Brea smiled.
"ARE YOU CRAZY!" Bella yelled.
"Just a little," Brea smirked.
"Man, first motorcycles, now cliff diving?" Jacob asked.
"You said it was a rush," Brea replied.
"Maybe on a warmer day! And not from the top... We'll leave the showing off to Sam and his disciples," Jacob said.
Brea turned and looked at the Cliff.... Feeling the urge to jump off of it.
"Y-You don't like them?" Bella asked, pulling Brea towards the truck.
"They think they run this place! Acting all bad ass, calling themselves 'Protectors'" Jacob frowned.
"What are they protecting?" Brea asked, climbing back into the truck.
"The tribe, the land, their rights to be jerks. Embry use to call them hall monitors on steroids. Now look at him," Jacob said, turning to look at the cliff.
"Then maybe you should avoid them!" Brea replied.
"I try but..." Jacob said but was cut off.
"Hey! If it gets worse, we'll go to my Dad. Or you can come stay with us," Bella smiled.
"Thanks! If this is how you're going to react, I should freak out more often," Jacob blushed, looking at Bella.
****************
Brea started walking towards an empty table, but stopped and sat next to her sister and her friends.... Everyone is staring at her, waiting for her to speak. But realized she wasn't gonna say anything.
"I'll kill Tyler if he gave me his flu," Jessica groaned.
"It's going around. My sister was so sick she couldn't come on our hike this weekend....so she didn't see it," Angela frowned.
"Ang, maybe you should keep that to yourself," Eric whispered.

"We saw something, Eric," Angela said.
"I believe you!" Eric replied.
"No he doesn't! He's just trying to get lucky," Jessica frowned.
"Is that an option?" Eric asked.
"It was jet black and huge! On all fours it was still taller than a person. A Bear maybe," Angela said.
"Or big foot!" Jessica added.
"Or an alien," Mike also added.
"Maybe it was just a bear," Bella sighed.
"W-we saw it!" Angela whispered.
"You're not the only one," Brea spoke up.
Everyone stared back at her.....
"Did Brea just speak," Mike thought.
"Our dad has been getting reports at the sheriff's station. A couple of hikers went missing, People are scared," Brea sighed.
Angela looked at Brea and smiled.

The Helena Chronicles
Espers are really no different than humans; they look like any normal human and in general behave like any normal human. However, there are a few key differences. The max life expectancy of espers ranges from forty-five to fifty. They naturally have a knack for mathematics and are extremely intelligent in general, this is because their abilities rely on the subconscious and conscious calculations. They also have a mysterious energy source they call Focus that is generated naturally by all espers. The continent of Elestveeve is populated by three major factions, each a governing force. On the west of the continent, there is the Noble Houses that subscribe to the Deity Faith. The Houses ruling with the Deity Faith as council since the religion's founding four-hundred years previous. Controlling most of the northeast is WITCH, an organization ruled by powerful espers; claiming the mysterious Genesis as their capital, they are a whispered myth among much of the continent's less technically advanced residents. In the southeast you have Tech City, a towering monolith of a capital with four sky layers and metropolis' leveled deep underground; it is a city brimming with technical advancement and cyber integration. Each faction contends with one another for their evolutionary ideology, by devout religious worship to receive miraculous gifts, unique genetic lineage to obtain ESP, and technological integration to become something more than human. Helena, a young genius and esper, awakes in a dark room with only fuzzy memories and the company of seven other children. She must determine how she got there and how to get back to where she came from. Warning: Due to time constraints, I don't have the time to keep up on my three stories; therefore, Helena will need to go in a stasis chamber until I can find more time to write between work and life. I love my first girl so much! however, it seems she is the least popular among the fans (the poor girl T_T). This world is much bigger than my other two novels and I'm not giving up on it, but simply having to put her on ice.

The Legend of Ghost
This is a quick novella origin story to one of fan-favorite characters in the ZERO universe, Sam Dobbs, a.k.a. Slade Gardner, a.k.a. the Ghost. I wrote it for current ZERO series fans, after many insistent, fervent, teary-eyed demands. Still, I think it pretty much works as a stand-alone, so I'll post it here. (He gets the name Ghost later, not as part of this story...this is just the why he decided to do what he did, being slightly insane and all.) Lots of easter eggs for current fans. 15k words total, chapters will be approx. 2.5k each. Oh, and if you get turned off by crazy, hyperintelligent antisocials being crazy, hyperintelligent antisocials, this isn't the story for you. ;)

Legacy: A wolf's tale
Follow Akascha as she goes from a beast of burden to a lovely (well more like a slightly belligerent) young woman! Note.This is a shory story (about 25.000 words) I wrote a while back in high school. Therefore, the range and depth of the story might be a bit lacking, but I wanted to share it with you anyway now that I discovered RR. Although I would love comments or constructive criticisme (as one can always learn), be aware that I have - at this point in time - no plans of rewriting this story. Thank you and I hope you enjoy! Oh and before I forget! The first chapter is rather short, but the rest of the chapters will make up for it.
