Bella and the Cullens are safe from the Volturi for now, but the truth behind each of their pasts maybe the ultimate danger they never knew existed. Meet J the immortal monkey
Narration: Bella
…… It was now the day after the madness. Things were “normal” again. Well as normal as my new vampire lifestyle could be. Last night we had our “victory” celebration, although the only two people who were invited was me, edward and our new bed. Edward is actually driving out of Forks today and into Seattle to buy us a new bed that doesn’t squeek so much. Now that we don’t have to worry about the Volturi, we’ll be able to spread our wings better and leave Forks and La Push once in awhile.
I am looking forward to spending the day with the other love of my life…my best friend, my monkey J. It’s scary to think that I’ll have to “turn” her also. Now that she’s back in my life, I need to let her know the dangers of being around me now. The thirst and burning in my throat when she’s around is unbearable. I try not to look at her as if she was the mountain lion I hunted earlier in the evening, but it’s hard. Very hard. I’ll need to go up to the Cullens house later today and confide in Carlisle about my dilemma. Although everyone says I’m very mature for a newborn, I don’t think I have the strength to “turn” J with out killing her. The thought petrifies me. How did Edward do it without killing me, when James wounded me. I’m also worried that if J becomes immortal, she will be the first monkey vampire in the world. I don’t want to create another reason for Aro and Caius to come visit. I’ll have to keep J discreet, although I’m sure it will be hard to hide her powers.
“What do I do Carlisle? I need to turn J into a Cullen, before I end up eating her. The desire is too strong and I can’t live with myself If I knew I killed her”
“Bella. Are you sure you want her to be your immortal monkey? If you want a monkey in your life forever - you should really think about if this is truly the monkey you love. Look at her Bella. She’s hideous. I’m sure when she turns, the bald patches will grow in and her googly eye will straighten out, but I just want you to be sure” Carlisle seemed very concerned.
I need J. No other monkey would do. I wanted her in Reneseme’s life as well. Alice told me she had a vision of J in the Cullens life. As a Cullen. Her new powers were going to save us one day. I’m not sure from who… I’m not sure how… but I wasn’t willing to risk not having her as our immortal mega monkey.
… i felt relief. Renesme was safe. my family was safe.
Through a lighted window I could see them, in love; with no worry in the world. They had avoided the chaos they had caused. There she was holding his head in her hands, forehead to forehead. What were they doing? Where was the little girl? I could feel the heat in my body, the anger, i knew my eyes were crimson. The others told me to stay behind and only appear if anything were to happen. I was told to wait for the signal. How could I just sit there and watch! luckily I had my J with me, she flung herself from tree to tree and could get a better view of what was happening. I was so lucky to have an immortal monkey as my everlasting pet.
I vaguely remember my life in Asia, working as a prostitute in the business district of Shanghai. They called me Pah-Tee. J was my only real companion. I never knew my family. When i was younger, the men i came across promised me a bettter life; jewlery, caviar, luxurious clothing, and best of all a permanent home. I learned quickly to just take their money and leave the dreams with them.
