Firelight || Jacob Black [2]

The Volturi

As we walk through the dimmed out halls, only having torches to see. We pass a crowd of tourists, Al being lead by a dark haired woman, who I sensed by the way she looked at each of them was a vampire. Her falter stops however as we pass, I look back over at her and I knew she sensed us but we kept walking till we made it to big grand doors.

Two men what seem to be guards opens the door, taking hold of Alice and Bella but I am quick enough to step in front of Jacob as I not letting them near as they pulled them in. "Werewolf." Is all is heard and in an instant a vampire is running directly at Jacob, Jacob's quicker, grabbing at it's body and I don't cast it a glance as I watch it scream in agony at my force of moving all of it's blood up to it's head.

Jacob drops him and the vampire seems to only be able to crawl away. I look up finally to the front of the room, in 4 throne chairs holds three men and a woman, dressed in a medieval priests clothes and eyes as red as the skin is white.

"Guards, let them tell me first why they bring a werewolf and humans here. Is this a gift?" The middle one asked devilishly.

"Clearly they are here for Edward, Aro." The blonde girl stated. Alice steps forward.

"Please, Aro, he is not at fault. Please let him go." Aro laughs, a squeaky chilling laugh. He moves his hands towards the guards and they act quickly, bringing out a weak and strained Edward. Once he see's that we are here, his eyes turn into straight agony.

"You may plead your case, but first I want to know what this little witch is exactly." He said looking at me. He reached out for my hand and just like that Jacob's in front of me. I look to Alice and she gives me a curt nod. I move around Jacob, stopping to look up at him, like a reminder as to why we're here. I move my warm hand into Aro's icy ones, and he closes his blood red eyes. I watch him as his face changes from wonder to surprise.

"Your a Malina," he laughs, looking back at his others, "she's an elemental, and not only that, the most powerful. Controlling not one but all 4 main sources of earths being." He looks past me, to Jacob.

"Mated to a powerful Alpha wolf, how ironic are the Gods?" He laughs, he seemed to of no seriousness and more intent to find things funny.

"See I am not normal, that means that I had a right to know about Vampires." He nods.

"You would make a marvelous vampire yourself," he says moving his hand towards my face, to which I quickly swat it away as Jacob's growl erupts from behind us. It's taking everything in him not to shift, I know it.

"Here Aro, take my hand, it'll show you the vision I had. The vision where Bella is a vampire one day." This catches his attention and he glides smoothly across the room to her, taking her hand in his. He then looks to Bella in amazement as well.

"Very well then, you are right he must not be charged of any kind." He laughs looking over at me.

"But I do want you to find you as a vampire as well before you leave us, Causias." He says and before I know it the young vampire on the throne is running towards me. I don't however get the chance to kill him as Jacob's already tearing his head from his body, his giant russet wolf taking form. The other vampires stand, ready for a fight but Aro holds up his hand.

"You don't want to make an enemy of me dear Bethany Pierce." He grits out, eyes suddenly dark as night.

"No what you don't want Aro is to find yourself at the wrong side of me, you seen my memories you must know what I am capable of." I say strongly.

"Very well then," he says making his way back to his throne, "we will not be enemies today then." He says throwing a fake grin on his stone cold face. The doors open and I take this as he's letting us go, he knew he would be killed, I knew that's why he let up.
