Forever a mystery part 4: We'll get her back for you

I remember when

It was a night or two before our battle with the newborns and I knew in my heart once all of this was over Tori would be my friend again and would no longer be under her father's spell and Riley and all the newborns would be gone. This thought alone made me so happy that I was even smiling in my sleep. That meant that at least for the moment I was having good dreams. Thinking back on the very rare memories of any happy moments in the castle but only if Tori was involved. It was some time after one of the many times Aro had just finished abusing me. Victoria always hated when he did that. And sometimes he would tell her to abuse me to punish me in order to not be abused herself.

She would be told to punish me to hurt me but she didn't want to do that. So instead she took me to her room and she had the great ability to lie she could get past her father's powers which was good. And one of the times she took me to her room she told me that she had wizard cast a spell on her room to make it sound proof and had gifted her magic make up so that when she was done with me she would put the make up on me and make it look like she had been doing what her father wanted and he had no reason not to trust his daughter so she was allowed to do whatever she wanted with me alone without anyone else.

One of the times that she brought me into her room Aro had instructed her to do whatever she pleased with me. Her room was the only one her father couldn't get into which was good for us. She'd gone to hug me but her fingers accidently brushed against my skin against my side. I jumped and she was worried she had hurt me. I'm sorry did I hurt you? She had asked me. I shook my head at her that she hadn't. Then why did you jump she had thought out loud to herself as she circled me slowly as she began to reach out again. What are you doing? Trying something hold still. Since we were both curious as to what had happened and I wanted to know more myself I did as I was told. She brushed her fingers at me again and this time when she did I giggled. She thought the noise was precious and did it again and again I let out a cluster of giggles. What a beautiful sound. She exclaimed.

Tori what was that? Oh you poor sweet child what I just did to you just now was tickle you. What is that? I asked her. It's a gentle touch that's meant to bring pleasure. It makes you laugh and the more ticklish you are the more you laugh and sometimes all it takes is a brush at the skin like I've been doing to you. And since you are I think I found the perfect way to "do" exactly as my father wants and not hurt you and this will give you something to look forward to as well. Why would I look forward to something like this? Well would you rather be happy and laughing or in pain and crying? She asked me. You have a point and compared to everything else it was a more pleasant feeling. Well good glad you feel that way because I now know what I plan to do to you when my father asks me to come hurt you this is what's going to happen to you and when I'm done with you I'll take the magic makeup stuff and put it on you to make it look like I hurt you.

So anytime that Aro told her to hurt me or do whatever she pleased with me that's what would end up happening. Any no one was any the wiser but if Aro didn't think she was doing what he wanted of her he would compel her which was never any good but almost very rarely happened thankfully. And in a dream you can't control yourself at least not that I know of. And I couldn't help but laugh and then it was like I was seeing the future in my dream almost like I could feel my eyes gloss over that had only happened one other time before Aro kidnaped me again. But this time the spell had worked Victoria was back to normal again and couldn't go home she wouldn't want to she's worried about what would happen to her if she did that her father would try to compel and control her again. We'd watched over her watching the spell take affect she had a room set up next to mine I was in between her and Edward. We had officially made her one of us.

There was someday I was still asleep and I needed to be woken up for some reason or another they both had said they would do that part. I'll go wake her up Esme she smiled flipped her hair and giggled. Victoria you're one of us now you're a part of the family now you can call us mom and dad. They had told her. I've heard the word before but it didn't mean anything in the castle. Farrah might be Bella's twin sister or Edward's rather but she's always been like a little sister to me and I was devastated when my father told me that Farrah was dead. I tried to leave I didn't want to believe him but he compeled me instead. It's ok Victoria you never have to be that way ever again they reassured her. Everyone was a little skeptical at first except for our parents which was perfectly reasonable given the circumstances but they trusted me and trusted my judgement and I trusted her so they trusted her as well. After all living with Aro was a fate worse than death.

Everything was perfect. Tori came into my room and approached my bed. Farrah wake up she called in silly devilish tone. But when she saw I neither stirred nor flinched she got closer to the bed as she wiggled her fingers over me. Farrah wake up. She'd said again but still got no response and so the attack happened as I started giggling. Tori Tori stop stop I giggled at her trying to push her hands away. Then get up then she teased back. Ok ok alright you win I'm up I'm up. Good get dressed and come down for breakfast. I could tell that something seemed wrong. Tori are you ok? She turned around a frown on her face she threw her arms around me. I'm so sorry Farrah. Thank you for saving me. Do you realize you're the only person who calls me that? Yeah I do. BTW you're welcome I would never leave you like that. You're like a sister to me always have been. You were my only other friend in the castle? Other she asked wiping her tears? Jack Frost came around a lot he was my past life boyfriend and this life boyfriend. That's as far as it goes.

On the outside I had called for Victoria and my brother was right by my side. Jade Jade wake up wake up! She's not going to hurt you he wiped my tears away as I rubbed my eyes as they stopped glossing over and faded out of the white. You saw a vision what happened? He asked me. No I was dreaming. No you were having a nightmare. You were calling out Victoria's name screaming and crying and squirming around your eyes are tear stained and your heart is beating fast. No no Edward I giggle I'm so sorry those weren't sad cries or hurt calling outs. I was laughing I rub my tears of mirth filled eyes these are tears of mirth I dream of the past short memories that were good that involved Tori. And a short blurb of t he future of what's to come and I'll allow it to happen even if I could stop it. Why would you want it to happen? Because I'd rather be laughing than crying and laughter usually means joy. You really haven't changed a bit you used to talk in your sleep all the time and I was never good at deciding if it was something good or something bad.

I know and it's ok. At least now I've got someone to take care of and protect me again after (it says 16 years but I wrote this chapter a long time ago but even so she should still be 18) after the last 16 years before I came here, It's ok Jade he's not gonna hurt you anymore everything is going to be alright now. You can't promise that I reminded him. I'll protect you even if it kills me. Don't say things like that! Sh.... Sh.... It's ok he sweeps back my hair and kisses my forehead. Everything's going to be alright go back to sleep Jade. Hey E as long as you're here? Say no more scoot over. He wraps his arms around me as I nuzzle against him. Good night Jade. Sweet dreams E.
