Bella’s P.O.V:
I gasped as Riley jumped and grabbed Edward. “Don’t let them get a hold of you…you’ll be dead in a second.” Jasper’s words flashed in my head. Edward flew back with as Riley toppled to the ground. “You shouldn’t have become like this. You’re world isn’t working for me, newbie.” Edward cocked his head as he ripped his head off. The dead vampire body lying in the white snow. Victoria looked down at her colleague. She jumped on juu of Edward ready to rip his head off. My eyes were starting to water as I kneeled in the snow and began digging through the snow. I found a nice, black, sharp rock and took it in my grasp. I lifted my sleeve and cut my arm. The blood started flowing down my arm. The red blood was dripping down into the white snow, staining it red. I gasped causing Edward and Victoria to look at me. Victoria walked slowly toward me, her vampire instincts taking over her killing Edward instincts. Edward jumped up behind her and literally ripped her head off her body. Her limp body fell in front of me. I gasped in shock and the warmth of my blood now running down my arm-staining the skin. Edward walked over to me, kissed my forehead and ripped a little off my shammy shirt. He wrapped it around my wound. My eyes started leaking tears. Edward picked me up and wiped away the tears, “Love…don’t cry…my love.” He sat down on the snowy ground and rocked me back and forth. Eventually my teeth started chattering and he went over to the tent and got a blanket and wrapped me up in it and walked slowly back to the clearing. I was still weeping when we got their and all the dead vampire bodies were strewn across the clearing. Alice was having visions. “A couple minutes…maybe ten.” Edward’s shati was soaked and I was still sobbing. My wound was still covered in blood. I couldn’t see out of my eyes anymore. “They’re here.” Just then the Volturi emerged from the darkness of the woods into the light of the clearing. Edward set me down and squeezed my hand softly. I looked behind me and saw a scared newborn vampire-Bree. Bree hadn’t been killed. Why? Why hadn’t Bree been killed? Edward’s breath taking scent filled the air as my mouth watered. Jane stepped up to us and said, “I see wewe have not yet fulfilled on your promises.” A growl escaped Edward’s perfectly molded lips. Her eyes darted across the field off of me. She looked around at the ground, “Wow. Well I also see wewe killed the newborns.” Alec nodded, “Yes, Jane. But look behind them.” Jane did as Alec alisema and looked behind us, “Oh well, it seems wewe missed one.” She smiled. “Girl, what is your name?” she asked Bree. Bree didn’t remember her past…at all.
Alice’s P.O.V:
As Bree searched her mind for her name-which she had forgotten in the fight Jane grew a large smile on her face. I saw in a horrid vision Marcus, Jane, and Alec all working together to rip her to shreds. Marcus had her left arm, Jane had her right, and Alec got the “honor” of the head. Edward shuddered at my thoughts.
FIVE dakika LATER…
A dead Bree lay on the clearing ground. Esme was wrapped in Carlisle’s arms, crying tearlessly. Rosalie and Emmett were making out. Edward had covered Bella up with the blanket he had her wrapped in and lay her in the car. She fell asleep almost instantly. He was beside her in the driver’s kiti, kiti cha stroking her hair as she slept. Jacob was sitting in the truck kitanda with his shati ON! I stalked over to him, “Wow that must’ve taken guts.” He looked at me, “What?” I chuckled, “Putting on your shirt.” I flicked him. He shivered, “God wewe leeches are like 5,000 degrees below zero.” I laughed, “And your like 100,000,000,000 degrees Celsius.” He rolled his eyes and pulled the sheets over his arms. Revealing me and Jasper’s clothes strewn across the truck bed. He looked down at them, “Ewwwwwwwwwwwww!” he screamed. I gulped. I had forgotten to clean up. Edward turned his head and smiled. He got out of the truck. He closed the door quietly, “I see wewe were busy last night, Ali.” I nervously smiled, “Umm, yeah.” He laughed and picked up Jasper’s shorts. “I do have to agree with ‘I’ll keep wewe warm’ here: Ewwwwwwwwwww!” Jacob rolled his eyes and jumped off the kitanda of the truck. He strolled over to where Bella lay in the truck. He started opening the door when Edward grabbed his shoulder, “No.” He rolled his eyes, “Oh c’mon dude!” Edward growled and jumped over to the other side where Bella was and picked her up. She was still asleep when she handed her to Jacob. “I’m going to run her back to the house.” Jacob put Bella on the passenger kiti, kiti cha and shut the door. “I’ll stop by.” Edward nodded and took off. I sat on the ground and smiled. The war was over. The lifeless Wanyonya damu lay dead on the ground. Carlisle walked over to me and handed me a lighter. “Start cleaning up, Ali.” I nodded and scrambled to my feet.
I walked over to light Bree up and felt myself gagging at her white skin and closed calm lips. I lit her up and swiftly and faster than ever before walked away. Jasper was lighting up other newbies and when he was finished he stuffed his lighter in his pocket. I wrapped my arms around him and smiled. “That was tough?” he asked-he must’ve saw me lighting Bree. I laughed, “For wewe it would’ve been a breeze?” he shrugged, “Possibly.” I giggled. He laid me on the ground and kissed me passionately. I kissed him back even zaidi passionately.
Rosalie’s P.O.V:
Walking nyumbani hand in hand we laughed and cheered that we were done with the fight forever. As we entered our nyumbani I heard Bella’s heartbeat slower. She was sleeping. We walked up the stairs into our bedroom. I lie down on the kitanda and let Emmett rip into me. He willingly ripped and tore and giggled giddily as I was free meat in the house. After an saa we were done and sat in our room naked. Emmett again kissed my breast and then picked me up. “Do I get to dress wewe up to?” I thought for a moment, “Sure.” He went over to the closet with a naughty look on his face and dug through my close. About five dakika later he smiled as he walked out with my short black dress in his hands. “What about this, beautiful?” I looked at one of my inayopendelewa dresses with just little cleavage but lots of leg so anyone with long legs would upendo it. I sighed and nodded, “Wanna dress me, animal?” He pondered this idea and eventually put a lacy white and blue bra on my chest and then put grey underwear on me and then finally shrugged the dress onto my body. I gladly let him and then when we were all done he put clip on earrings (since I couldn’t have my real ears pierced) on my ghastly white ears. He put my inayopendelewa mkufu on me, a white diamond studded silver chain with a diamond bedazzled pendant on it. He carefully lifted my beautiful golden hair and chained it on me. He then put on my silver open-toed shoes he loved. Eventually, it got to the point where he put mascara on me and did my lips red. I smiled in the mirror and said, “Maybe wewe should be my stylist zaidi often.” He smiled and nakedly did a smoking hot curtsey. I went over to the closet and picked out a shined leather blazer and a blue button-up shati to go under it. I got his grey patashika, longi and picked out his black shoes. I put on his Calvin-Klein underwear on him and dressed him in his best dressed. The inayofuata thing we knew we had Edward sitting in our room with his entire wardrobe laying in front of him. “Alright, time to do some major work on this one.” He looked up a little frightened, “Guys, please don’t do this.” I clasped my hand over his mouth and told him to shut up. I ended up picking out his nicest pair of jeans and his t-shirt he had Bella sign her name and “I upendo you” all over in Sharpie marker. It looked ridiculous yet nice on him. Then I got his grey hoodie and draped it over his shoulders. He looked pretty good until I added the dark black sunglasses over his golden eyes and he looked even better. He dressed himself and then took a look in the mirror. “Wow! wewe did it.” I rolled my eyes, “Of course we did.” He glanced at me and ended up hugging me. “What is this for?” I shrugged then a smile lit my face. “Family photos.” Emmett looked confused, “Family photos?” I nodded, “Totally. Tonight’s family night so why don’t we take some damn picha as well? Then we could do something after that.” Emmett’s face grew a big smile as Edward’s face twisted into a scowl, “Yea!” he alisema it sarcastically of course but who cares? It’s family night!!!!
Bella’s P.O.V:
After waking up and seeing Edward dressed in a grey hoodie and his best pair of jeans I knew I was in for a treat. Until Rosalie insisted on dressing me up in her and Alice’s fantabulous clothes. Rosalie shooed Alice out because tonight was HER night and nobody else’s. I snickered at my brown hair that was everywhere. Left, right, down, up, etc. She ended up dressing me in Alice’s machungwa, chungwa and pink polka dotted blouse and her faded ripped grey jeans. She handed me the clothes and sent me to her and Emmett’s bathroom. Clothes were strewn EVERYWHERE in that room. Including Emmett’s manga comic vitabu and Rosalie’s US weekly magazine. Issues from 1975. I slipped on the jeans and twirled around getting a feel of them. I slid on the blouse and realized it looked great on me. Probably not as good as it would have on Rosalie au pixie Ali, but still pretty good. I opened the door and showed Rose. Rose smiled her brilliantly bright teeth shining in the dim light of her room. Rose walked over to her makeup kit and grabbed a brilliant pink tube of lipstick. She threw me the tube, expecting me to catch it. Well, wrong guess. It hit the floor at my feet. She rolled her eyes and picked it up. “Come on Bella. Its family night-just cooperate.” I nodded and picked up the tube. I walked over to her lit up mirror with all those little light balls wewe see in Hollywood sinema for the actresses to see themselves even better than they could before. I smeared the lipstick on my chapped lips and set the tube down on juu of the Hollywood mirror. Rosalie smiled and hugged me like my sister would-which of course was her. She urged me out of the room and into the hall I went. I walked back over to Edward’s room to find Edward taking digital pictures of him on my birthday camera. I grabbed my phone out of my pocket and started taking pictures of him. The best one was of him smiling that crooked smile I always loved. I picked that as my wallpaper.
Alice’s P.O.V:
As much as I loved Barbie this was NOT what I had in mind. I was laying on juu of Rosalie’s sex kitanda with all my clothes surrounding me as Rosalie fussed over my clothes and what I should wear. She ended up picking out my long pastel purple silk dress with white kujaa and pastel pink lipstick with pastel purple eye shadow. She pushed me into her and Emmett’s dirty bathroom and made me change. After I was done changing she applied my makeup and tousled with my hair. She did a quick up do with a black and white barrette as the holder. She got out her cell and snapped some shots of me. I stiffened and looked precautious. She giggled the whole time during the picha shoot. I eagerly left the room as Carlisle and Esme entered holding hands together. I walked over to me and Jazz’s room and picked up my book: Moonlight Riddles and continued kusoma where I left off: Page 87. It was at the part where the 16 mwaka old Amelia was learning she was getting an arranged marriage to her stupid pastor, Carter Lake a 56 mwaka old man. I shivered in disgust as she realized on page 102 she was pregnant with her ex-boyfriend’s twins. As I flipped to page 189 she was 2 months pregnant and she had run away from her fiancée Carter to her ex-boyfriend Marlow and they had reunited and were going to keep the babies. As soon as I turned to page 195 Jazz walked in with a calm yet irritated look on his face. “Yikes! What happened to you, bubba?” He flashed a dry fake smile and plopped himself down on the bed. “Rosalie is making a fashion onyesha out of us.” I hadn’t noticed he was wearing black patashika, longi and a sexy white button up shati that fit him perfectly. He had a loose tie on tie around his neck that was another dark shade of black. His golden hair looked recently teased and fluffed. His hands were in tight fists and his eyes were in some sort of mystical mist neither he nor me could’ve explained in a million years. He looked beautiful but he didn’t think so. I climbed off the chair and sat on the kitanda inayofuata to him and stroked my finger down his chest. “Come on, Mr. Handsome.” He chuckled, “I guess it’s alright if I get to be with you.” He leaned down and kissed me on the lips.
Rosalie’s P.O.V:
I had dressed Esme is a off the shoulder chokaa green blouse and a short leather skirt. I applied dark red lipstick to her flawless lips and then light green eye shadow to her lids. She looked absolutely amazing. She grinned her white smile that lit the whole room. I hugged her and insisted on taking pictures of her before she fled over to her room. She agreed as I took stunning pictures of her. She left and in walked Carlisle. He was wearing his dreadful clothes. “This will soon change…” I said. He chuckled and sat down on the thick, rugged, and golden carpet. I looked through his clothes and picked out his sexy jeans and his black leather jacket. I also picked out one of Emmett’s rock band tee’s and threw it at Carlisle. He went into our bathroom and a dakika later came out looking hotter than ever. He smiled and did“Grease” songesha out the door. I shut the light off and walked downstairs where everyone was waiting for me. I grabbed my Dixon camera and put it on its stand. I grabbed Edward and Bella and had Edward sit on the floor. I put Bella in his lap and Ali inayofuata to her. Alice got up ready to sit on Jasper’s lap. Then I had Emmett get down and I sat on his lap. I had Esme and Carlisle take the picture. Then we all got in a clump and set it on a timer. We all did wacky things with our tongues and our fingers and then we all picked each other up. Then I took some pictures of Bella and Edward kissing and hugging and him holding her. Then Alice and Jasper did they’re moves. Kissing, hugging, snuggling, etc. I had Esme and Carlisle do their thing. They hugged the most-it was so sweet. Emmett and I did the same. After about 2 hours of posing we were finally done and we all decided to play a game….


Truth au Dare?

Author’s Note:
Thank wewe so much for reading. I hope this is how wewe hoped it would end. I think it’s pretty good. Do wewe think they’re should be a sequel? Who was you’re inayopendelewa character throughout the book? I think mine was Alice. Thanks to all who read and liked. I hope wewe thought it was original and different than the others. The only thing I would have changed was the language. I didn’t think that was very wise. I thought that there was something different than the fanfictions I’ve read. It was zaidi about friendship. I only write two stories at a time. I am working on a story called Lexy Cullen-the twin of Renesmee. As most of wewe know A Youtube Story is in the process…thank wewe to all again and leave comments! upendo all the fans.


I might write a bonus chapter au epilogue. What do wewe think? maoni below!
please maoni and read my other makala ^_^ thx


I interrupted her then. Not only was this starting to get on my nerves but she was ruining Bella’s birthday. And I specifically asked her to be gentle with Bella and not push too hard. That was exactly what she was doing. “Relax, Alice. If Bella wants to watch a movie, then she can. It’s her birthday.” “So there” Bella added, a little too smug. She probably thought I was going to let her miss the party. Even though Alice was taking this whole birthday thing too far, I did understand what she meant about Bella not missing anything....

Rosalie didn’t speak right away. She went back to examining her nails. I closed my bedroom door and stood in front of it and waited for her. And waited. And waited.
“Look, Rosalie,” I said, tersely. “I don’t have all of eternity to wait for wewe to talk. You’re the one that keeps reminding me. Now either say what you’re going to say au leave.”
She continued to look at her nails and I was getting angry. She can’t just appear in my bedroom, say she’s going to apologise and then sit there and do nothing.
“Rosalie!” I walked over to her and yanked her head so she looked at me....

"Alice?" I alisema in a whisper, I know she heard me.

"Bella! I need to talk to you!" Alice said.

"Let's go to my room," I said.

"Perfect," Alice said, while rushing past Charlie.

"Do I have a say in this? Remember wewe are grounded Bella," Charlie alisema as Alice was trying to push me to my room.

"I'm sorry Charlie but this can not wait," Alice snapped at Charlie, then she pushed me into my room so Charlie could not further debate the subject....

End of Chapter 3
“Bella? Bella!” Everyone in the car was yelling at me trying to get my attention.
“I’m sorry guys. I must have blanked out. I didn’t even realize I was holding on the steering wheel that bad.” I alisema trying to calm them all down. I got a little bit of help from Jasper and I gave him a look of saying thanks. All I could read on everyone’s face was worry concern.
'Mommy, Can wewe slowed down please. You’re scary when wewe drive like that.” She looked so scared I felt so bad.'

    3. BEGINNING

    I AND ANGELA’S CHAT GOT TOO FAR. WE TALKED ABOUT MANY DIFFERENT THINGS here in Forks including those which are out-of-the-world. Our conversation ended before the sunset. At last, the rain stopped. I stopped to chill, too. Angelia brought me nyumbani so I am salama that night. She really is a good friend.

    “Thank wewe Bella for your time” she mumbled
    “I should be the one to say that” I alisema with a crooked smile. “You did many things for me today so thank you. I really enjoy this day....

"Bella?" Jake said, confused.

"Yeah, hi," I alisema shyly.

"What are wewe doing in my room?" Jacob said, very calmly. And it looked as if he was trying to keep a smile off of his face.

"Well, Alice made me," I alisema and Jacob instantly laughed. "What's funny?" I asked.

"Of course wewe would let her tell wewe to break into my house. wewe know wewe could've called au something," Jacob said, still laughing.

I just stared blankly at him. What is he talking about? Did he go crazy au something. Why isn't he mad at me? Then Jacob realized that I was staring at him like he was a freak show.

Today was not going so well. I had been a bit harsh. I should not have thrown Rosalie across the room. But then again she should not have alisema those horrible things. Did she not think I knew what I was getting myself into? I had thought about every single thing she’d alisema and more. I knew that Carlisle’s theory might be wrong and I will grow old. I knew that there was a slight chance I could die if Edward and I ever went that far. I knew that staying with Edward meant no children. But I was only eighteen so kids right now was not an option for me. Then they’re would be the constant moving...

"Getting older," I answered anyway, and my voice was not as steady as I wanted it to be
Beside me, Edward's smile tightened into a hard line.
"Eighteen isn't very old," Alice said. "Don't women usually wait till they're twenty-nine to
get upset over birthdays?"
"It's older than Edward," I mumbled.
He sighed.
"Technically," she said, keeping her tone light. "Just kwa one little year, though."
And I supposed… if I could be sure of the future I wanted, sure that I would get to spend
forever with Edward, and Alice and the rest of the Cullens (preferably not as a wrinkled little
old lady)… then a year...

Chapter 20: Mutiny (Nessie’s POV)

Hours later we were still deeply immersed in my “big thank you” when Jake’s phone began to ring at the most inopportune moment. He sighed and looked towards it but then shook his head and leaned in towards me bringing his lips back to my neck as he continued to push me even further towards ecstasy but then he stopped. I groaned in frustration as he placed his forehead against my cheek apologetically while offering me a sheepish smile.


“What if something is wrong with the babies, Ness?”


It melted my moyo to see how good of a dad he was. I of course...

There's Twilight Dolls, Twilight Body Shimmer, Twilight Band-Aids, and now... Twilight Lip Gloss!

So in case wewe haven't heard, the lipglosses are going around for $16, 2 lip glosses being the maximum for one buyer. It's the same brand they use on the set as well.


Here is how DuWop describes it: "Instead of a gloss, Lip Venom V is a shimmering crimson lip stain suspended in a venom-laced liquid lip conditioner with a bite, and contains argan, avocado, mizeituni, mzeituni oils and vitamin E. This product should be shaken before use to represent the blending of the human and vampire worlds ..."
