Chapter 9: Renesmee

Renesmee was lying quietly in her bed, waiting. She could hear what was happening to her mother downstairs, she could hear the screams for her to run. She didn't move. When the screams died and the smell of burnt life entered her nose, Renesmee stood up and padded down the stairs and out the front door.

In front of her home was a burned circle of acrid smelling grass. Renesmee felt tears welling up in her eyes as she peered at the ash that was once her mother. Looking up, the young girl peered at the creature that had extinguished the life of her entire family.

"Why?" she asked the beast. "Why did you kill them?"

The dragon stared at her with glittering sapphire eyes. It cocked its head and stared at her. Slowly it lowered its head and laid it on the ground. It looked into her eyes. They held each other's gaze for several moments, neither willing to back down.

'I had to,' a feminine voice sounded in Nessie's mind. 'It was for the benefit of everyone.'

Unfazed by telepathic communication, Renesmee didn't flinch at the sound of the dragon's voice in her mind. "Benefit of everyone, or the benefit of you?"

The dragon's nostrils flared and a rancid blast of air smacked the child in the face. 'You wouldn't understand.'

"Try me."

The dragon snarled thunderously and pushed off of the ground. 'I do not have to explain myself to a blood-sucking half-breed like you!' she roared.

"No you don't. But you should. You should tell me why you murdered my family."

The dragon dropped to her belly again. 'Not many people can face the wrath of a dragon without flinching. Not even he could.' The dragon paused. 'You are an odd one.'

"Why did you kill them?"

'They were giving me competition. They had to be eliminated.'

Renesmee bowed her head and allowed her tears to fall. "Kill me. I don't want to live without them."

The dragon bared her teeth. 'With pleasure!' she growled.

Blue flames erupted from her maw, engulfing the small girl, forever smothering the life of all of the last of the Cullens.

Finished! Thank the AP gods! R&R!
