Disclaimer: I don't own anything except for the plot and some original characters. Buffy the Vampire Slayer belongs to Joss Whendon and The Twilight Saga belongs to Stephenie Meyer. I make no prophet off of this story it's just for fun. |
A/N: Some of this chapter is in a third persons POV, but once Edward receives the call from Buffy, it will be in Edward’s POV. I will put a warning about the switching of POV’s when that point comes.
A/N 2: For those of you that had read my first D.F.L, there are somethings that I took from chapter ten, although I added more stuff to it. The chapter starts off with the Cullen's having a family meeting. Afterwards, Edward receives a phone call. From who, I wonder. LOL! Anywho, enjoy and please review =)
Chapter 7: Family Meeting and the Phone Call
After school let out Edward’s siblings found him in the car. After climbing in they sped out of the schools parking lot and were on their way home.
Half way there Edward called his father, Carlisle, and said that he wanted to have a family meeting. He didn’t elaborate anymore except to say that it was important.
“I am on my way.” Carlisle replied, then the line disconnected.
Once they were home, their mother, Esme, was waiting for them in the living room. Edward guessed that Carlisle had told her that something was going on. Once everyone was seated, Carlisle pulled into the garage and was in the living room in a flash.
“Now, Edward, can you tell me what this is all about?” Carlisle asked politely.
Edward ran a hand through his hair, not knowing where to begin. He decided that he would start with what he found out in the cafeteria today.
After relaying what he felt and what he couldn’t hear, everyone was stunned into silence.
This of course hadn’t happened before for Edward. He had always been able to hear the thoughts around him. But now he had encountered not one, but three humans that he couldn’t hear. Not only that but the power that surrounded Xander and Willow were almost on in the same. But Buffy’s was entirely different.
After what seemed like an eternity, Carlisle broke the silence, bringing everyone else out of their own thoughts.
“This is quite unusual and unheard of for you Edward. But the power that you felt coming off of Buffy’s siblings sounds a lot like magic to me. Strong magic if I were to guess, I will have to do some research to find out more.”
“But I thought that there was no such thing as magic?” Rosalie asked.
“Magic exists all around us. Also you have to consider what Jasper, Alice and Edward have with their gifts, plus the Volturi and their guards. Somewhere down the line of their ancestry there had to have been magic in their blood, may it be a small or large amount.”
“But what about Buffy? You said that her power felt completely different.” Jasper inquired towards Edward.
“It is, I don’t think this had to do with witches power. But other than that I don’t know what else to say. Oh, Carlisle, how can a human know of the Volturi without being told about them?”
“Well there are ways. For example, Alice, she is a seer, although her gift is connected to what course people take. There are others that can see the past and the future. Why do you ask?”
Then Edward launched into his second encounter with Buffy in Biology. About how she thought the Volturi was one person, and how Edward corrected her. About how Buffy said that he and his family were in danger of them. He also told them about giving Buffy his cell number so they could talk more later tonight.
“Well it seems like she could be a seer also. That could explain the power that you felt coming off of her.” Alice stated, looking thoughtful.
“Alice is right, that very well may be.” Carlisle agreed. “But for now, until we get more information, you all should steer clear of the Evans. And now I must go up to my study to do some research.” And just like that the subject was dropped at least for the time being.
After Carlisle gave his wife a kiss he was off upstairs into his study. Everyone else went their separate ways, including Edward, who went upstairs to his room.
Once in his room with the door shut, Edward’s cell phone began to ring. Looking at the caller I.D, he noticed that it was a California area code. He knew then that this had to be Buffy calling.
******Edward’s POV******
“Hey Buffy.” I answered the phone with a smile.
“How did you know that it was me?”
I laughed, “Only my family and you have my cell phone number, and since I just got done talking to my family, I figured that it had to be you.”
“Oh okay,” Buffy laughed nervously, “Let me take a wild guess, you were talking to your family about me.”
I laughed guiltily, “Yes, we were actually. We were talking about you and your family.”
She sighed, “What did you say?”
“I told them about my encounter with you in Biology. Which leads me to my first question, how did you know about the Volturi?”
“Well, first I have to start from the beginning, because if I just tell you how I knew about them it would only confuse you more.”
“Okay, I am listening.” Nodding even though Buffy could not see it.
. “'To each generation a slayer is born. The one with the strength and skill to hunt the vampires, demons and other forces of darkness. She is the vampire slayer.' That's what I was told when I was fifteen. I was in L.A, sitting on the front steps of the school waiting for my ex-boyfriend to ask me to a dance, when my first Watcher came up to me. He told me that we were all in danger and I was the only one who could stop the vampires. That night I killed my first vampire. At the end of my freshman year the vampires decided to have a party in my High School gym so I burned it down.” Buffy took a deep breath, let it out slowly and continued. “After that my mother, father and I moved to Sunnydale, California. There I met my best friends Xander, Willow, Angel and my new Watcher Rupert Giles. I fought battle after battle with vampires and demons with my best friends, even though Willow, Xander and I were only sixteen at the time.”
To say that I was shocked was an understatement. I was horrified, angry and dumbfounded all at the same time. I was horrified that Buffy had to take on such a big responsibility at such a young age. Angry that, for a year, she had to take on this responsibility on her own. Lastly dumbfounded that I had not heard of a vampire slayer before now.
Interrupting my thoughts she continued with her story.
“There was this one vampire, The Master Vampire, which had rule over all the other vampires in Sunnydale. It just so happens that our school was on top of a Hellmouth, and the Master wanted to open it. There was a school dance that was coming up and I was looking forward to it. One night I had just got back from patrol, and was going into the library to talk to Giles. That’s when I over heard Giles and Angel talking about the prophecy that the Master was involved with. ‘If she faces the Master, Buffy will die.’ Giles looked extremely anxious and had pained look upon his face. Angel was pacing the Library’s office, ’There has to be some way around this,’ that’s when I laughed a pained, almost hysterical laugh. Hearing the fact that I was going to die at sixteen on the night of the school dance was not something I wanted to hear.”
I was shocked to say the least. I had no idea what a Hellmouth was, but it had to be something very bad if this Master vampire wanted to open it. I was most shocked at the fact that Buffy’s Watcher would keep something like that from her. Death was never an easy thing to hear about, but he just couldn’t fathom over hearing about his own death that was prophesized.
Buffy took a deep breath, then another. From this end, even though I couldn’t see her face I knew she was on the verge of tears. At that moment, I don’t know what exactly came over me, but I felt like I should be there for her right now. To comfort her.
“Buffy, I am going to come over. Where is it that you live?” I asked quickly.
“1214 Prescott Street.”
“That’s not far from where I live, I will be there in five minuets.”
“Okay.” She replied meekly, then the line went dead.
I opened the window to my room and jumped down, and ran as fast as I could to her house. Once I caught her sent, and found the house, I was up in the tree in front of her window in a blink of an eye. I could see Buffy sitting her bed with her face in her hands. Reaching over I tapped lightly on the window so not to startle her.
Looking up she looked surprised to see me at her window. Buffy opened the window and ushered me inside her room.
Once inside, she closed the window back up, and turned slowly to face me. Once I got a good look at her face I could tell with my heightened eyesight that she had been crying. If I was human I wouldn’t have been able to tell.
I reached out carefully, slowly, so that I wouldn’t scare her, and touched her face. She was warm, warmer than the average human. Buffy smiled a small smile and walked slowly up to me and put her arms around me.
What I felt when she did that is almost indescribable. My body felt warm for the first time in eighty some odd years.
Resting her head on my shoulder, I wrapped my left arm around her small frame, and my right hand on top of her head. As I started to run my fingers through her hair, she let out a small sob. I hated to see her in so much emotional pain. Buffy’s gut wrenching sob tore a hole in my chest.
After a few minuets she quieted down and led me over to her bed. She laid down on the bed and pulled me down with her so that we were facing each other.
“Are you alright now?” I asked softly.
Buffy nodded, wiping the tears from her face.
“You don’t have to continue your story if you don’t want to. I didn’t know that it would upset you so.”
“It’s alright Edward, I have to talk about it at some point. I would rather talk to you about it than some therapist or school councilor, you know? Besides I know that we just met today, but I feel as if I could tell you anything.”
“I feel the same way about you. It’s as if I have been waiting my whole life to meet you. And I understand what you mean about talking to some therapist or councilor. It’s hard to keep a secret identity.” I smiled a small crocked smile.
Buffy smiled a small smile back. Then she sighed and continued with her story that she was telling me over the phone. “Giles and Angel turned around at the sound of my pained, hysterical laugh. Angel came up to me quickly, but I stepped away just as quickly. I basically told Giles that I quit. That the Watchers Council could find themselves another slayer. I took the cross necklace, a present that Angel gave me, from my neck and threw it on the table. I knew what Giles was going to say, that they could find someway around it, but I quickly cut him off saying that I didn’t want to die. That it wasn’t fair and I didn’t deserve this. I ran out of the room as fast as possible back to my house, and climbed up to the window of my upstairs room.”
I could hear her heart beat starting to pick up and so I grabbed her hand, squeezing it lightly, urging her to continue.
Buffy sighed once more, “On the day of the dance, I knew what I had to do. I needed to kill the Master, even though it would be the death of me. I followed the underground tunnels that were under the cemetery, which led me to the Master’s cave. With my crossbow in hand I wondered into his lair. He taunted me, and when he finally came into range I lost my gut to shoot him. Tears were falling down my face as he told me that if I hadn’t come down here he would still be confined to his cave. That it is my blood that would set him free. He grabbed my neck and turned my back to him and he drank from me. After that everything went black.”
I growled, hating the fact that a vampire had drank from her.
Buffy looked at me with an eyebrow raised, but didn’t comment. “Angel and Xander followed me into the Master‘s lair. After the Master had drank from me, he tossed me into a puddle of water, and I had drowned. Xander brought me back with CPR , and then we went to go look for The Master. We were to late though, the Hellmouth had already been opened and the school was falling in on it’s self. Terrified that not only were my parents in the school, but so were Xander and Willow’s. I had this awful feeling that they hadn’t gotten out. But there was no time to stop and look to make sure. So once I found the Master, I staked him. Then the school was swallowed whole and the Hellmouth closed.”
Tears started to run down Buffy’s face once more and I knew what had happened. I didn’t need to read her mind.
“My parents died, along with Xander and Willow’s. God, there were so many loses. Giles lost his girlfriend Jenny Calendar. Xander lost his girlfriend Cordelia Chase, Willow’s boyfriend Daniel Osbourne or as we had called him Oz. Including so many others. Giles then called the Watchers Council and asked if they could set it up so that he may adopt Willow, Xander and I. After that it was all about setting up the funerals and attending them.”
Wiping her tears away, I frowned feeling heartbroken for this family and so many others that had been lost. Thinking about it, I hadn’t felt this much emotion in such a long time.
“We talked about it for days before and after the funerals, about leaving Sunnydale. We knew that there was nothing left for us and Giles wanted a fresh start for us. After getting a job as the new librarian, at Forks High School, Giles asked Angel if he wanted to move with us to Washington. He accepted and the next night we were on a plane to Forks.”
