Hi guys I know I haven't written anything for a while now but recently things have happened with people I used to be able to call friends, but they now make most days a misery for me and I started writing to cope with it. Also it helps me take my mind off things. this story idea has been on my mind for a while and I hope you all like it, I'm sorry for the lack of dialogue and description but trust me its good but this is just the way I write. Most twilight stories describe a lot of the Volturi members as being quite cruel and honestly not to nice but that's not the way I view them and this story will describe them as being kind, again I hope you like this story and Alec will be in the next chapter I promise you. Again I hope you like it and if you do comment, favourite etc. and if you like it or have any constructive criticism then please feel free to comment also if you notice any spelling mistakes please tell me. QUICK NOTE I AM BRITISH SO I'M NOT TO SURE ON THE AMERICAN WORDING FOR SOME THINGS SO IF YOU COULD COMMENT AND TELL ME THEM THEN I'D APPRECIATE IT AS I PICTURED THE CHARACTER AS AMERICAN NOT BRITISH, sorry but I had no clue on the different wording I APOLOGIZE xxxxxxx
I do not own any of the characters except Michael and Serena, I do not own Twilight. No matter how much I wish I did.
Chapter 1
I leant my head against the window as I gazed at the trees that blurred by and the white blanket that covered the ground, the taxi pulling up to a huge house, it was beautiful with the huge windows and modern staircase I could see. I decided to surprise my cousin Bella with a visit, I contacted Charlie and he told me that she would be at the Cullen's. He was currently on a fishing trip, and I think he said something about Bella living with her husband and his family now, I paid the driver before slinging my duffel bag over my shoulder and quickly ran towards the door as the cold started to seep though my coat. As I knocked on the door I heard shuffling and a loud bang before the door opened and Bella had me wrapped in a tight hug, I leant back and looked at her only to notice that her skin was a shade lighter and she had an aurora of grace that was not there before.
"It's good to see you" she beamed "I missed you" I mumbled as a boy looking no older than sixteen wrapped his arms round her waist. They both had the same complexion, his auburn hair lay ruffled on his head and I then noted that he had golden eyes.
He's a vampire I concluded and so is Bella, my friend Michael was a shape shifter, the only reason I know that is when he lost control of his temper and phased right in front of me. Needless to say it took me at least a few week to come to terms with it, only to then have to get over the complete an utter shock that vampires existed also. But he did inform me that while some drink form humans while others drink form animals. Bella husband went rigid at my thoughts can vampires read minds but quickly dismissed the thought as Bella didn't seem to be able to hear what I said.
"She knows" he stated, I glanced at Bella to see her face scrunching up in concentration as she took in what her husband said, the realisation hit her and she pulled me inside the house. I managed to get a glimpse of a large, gleaming kitchen before being practically thrown into what I gathered was there living room, the sofa's and the television giving it away. What's you name I questioned her husband to see if he really could read minds, "Its Edward "he grunted before turning back to a youthful man with pale blonde hair and a rigid posture as he and Edward talked too quick for me to hear but the other occupants in the room seemed to be able to hear every word as they all gazed at me.
After spending at least three hours having a lengthy talk with Bella's new 'family' they had come to term with my knowledge of vampires and shape shifters, or as they called them werewolves. I've spent three days here and I have learnt that Edward and Bella were falsely accused of created an immortal child, Nessie who I absolutely adored who has taken to following me quite like a shadow, out of curiosity I assumed. I also had the opportunity to meet the vampires who would be standing as witnesses for the Cullen's, Garret who was by far my favorite had taken it upon himself to teach me how to fight. It would come in handy at some point and it occupied me for the few days that I have been here Bella has only spoken to me when she was retrieving Renesmee from my company.
A few hours after my arrival she received a letter from Alice which she only shared with her husband and has avoided me, treating me like I'm some diseased rat, her and the Cullen's have tried to keep me indoors as much as possible and have barely given me any time to speak the many vampires that occupy the house. They have informed me that tomorrow they will be facing the Volturi but neglected to tell me anything about them, Edward has approached me a few times but only to repeat that I will be staying in the house while they try to 'reason' them.
Currently I was occupied with teaching Nessie some painting techniques, I'm very fond of art but my passion is reading, I honestly adore a good book. "Show me again Serena" Renesmee beamed. I smiled down at the girl who bounced up and down gleefully "Okay, once mo-" I was cut off by Bella abruptly lifting Nessie into her arms with a quick goodbye and stay indoors before she walked out the door.
' What crawled up her ass' I mused before shrieking as I was tossed into the air "Garret put me down, now" I cried while his laugh filled the room. "we're leaving shorty" he grinned while setting me back on my feet, Carlisle appeared behind me and beckoned me to his office. "stay safe" I breathed as I gave Garret a quick hug before he too flittered out of the room. Carlisle office was piled full of books but I haven't had time to read them all, I sat down of the edge of his wooden desk as he turned to face me.
"Bella has her reasons for avoiding you these past few day, as you know my daughter Alice has the gift of foresight and she has seen a rather worrying event that may occur when we face the Volturi, she has been doing what she can to help prevent it" his voice sounded strained like he didn't want to tell me. I grew steadily frustrated "I'm guessing it has something to do with me, so enlighten me " I started tilting my head "exactly why was I not informed" I arched my eyebrow.
He waited a few minutes to answer, my frustration reaching new levels as I drilled my fingers against the table, "we did not want to worry you, but it concerns you and a member of the Volturi and we need you to stay inside" he waited a few moments gauging me reaction before continuing " we will not be able to hide your presence as Aro, their leader has the ability to see a persons thought with a single touch so he will find out about you. My friend Eleazar has informed me that you have a gift which he may want to acquire but we will do everything in our power to prevent you from being taken" he informed me while starting to pace his office.
I mulled this new information over before deciding to answer " You haven't yuet told me about the issue concerning me and clearly a select member of their coven, and what ability do I posses" I queried, he carried on pacing and spoke quickly as I noted it was almost dawn and the Volturi would be here soon. "he cannot see the exact gift Serena but it is powerful and would be very useful to him but you will not have to meet them, and you do not need to concern yourself with which member of the Volturi it is as we will do everything to prevent the situation from happening, I need to leave now but I assure we will be back soon" he tried to assure me but I could see the uncertainty in his eyes.
I sighed as I hoped of the desk and settled onto one of the large sofa's that occupied their Cullen's expensive living room, I curled up and used my arm as a pillow as I drifted off.
