Chapter 1 - New Beginnings
Bella's point of view
I was eighteen when they changed me, nearing nineteen. I had become a vampire for some unknown reason. However becoming a vampire meant I was stronger than ever before. I was in my happy place with Edward and nothing could take this away from me. I was truly a Cullen now, truly a vampire. I looked around me and suddenly realised I was no oridinary vampire. What ordinary vampire could have multipule abilities? I would have to talk to Carlisle. I sighed, I hated talking to Carlisle about things becasue as I have stated before he is too curious for his own good.
"Carlisle?" I murmerd just low enough for a regular human not to hear
"Bella honey?" I heard Edward call
"Why do you want Carlisle, he's gone out for a moment" I sighed at Edwards response
"No reason. I just needed to discuss something with him" I replied.
Edward walked into the living area in his Khaki's and a long white sleeved shirt. He was gorgeous of course and he was all mine. He walked over to me and placed his hand on top of mine. He used his other hand to gently rub circles into my back.
"Whats wrong Bella? Your so tense" Edward soothed and then I was gone.
I took in the surroundung area with a sharp gasp. One minuet I had been sitting on Edwards knee and the next I am in the middle of Italy. Well volterra to be percise. I needed the internet or a book anything to do with vampires. I slipped into the nearest internet cafe with my shades on. No one was allowed to the crimision red of my eyes. My fingers rushed over the keys with ease as I typed in "Vampire Legends" I was back with the first site. The one I used when I discovered the identity of the Cullens "Vampires A-Z!"
I clicked on a story that intrersted me. This story interested me, not becasue it had my name in it, but because of its title "The Chosen Ruler" I was reading the article and was finsihed in about a second. I made it look like I was reading slowly. I hated doing this but it was keeping up apperances in front of the humans.
"When the next true ruler of the vampires comes along she shall be known as Isabella. Isabella shall have the greatest of powers. She shall have every vampire power known and unknown... She shall rule forever and her people will love her kind nature... She will either kill the volturi and take their place or spare them proving that she is the most powerful"
Edwards point of view
One minuet I was trying to soothe my beautiful Bella and her insecurities. Next minuet shes gone, she just popped out of my lap into well thats the problem. She didn't run becasue I could not smell her scent anywhere. She had vanished.
My head snapped up at the sound of the others returning from thier outing.
"I need to call a meeting now!" I growled. When I growled everyone knew I meant business and that we were doing the business before it was forgotten.
"What do you want Edward? Wheres Bella?" Alice gasped. I knew what she was thinking, well of course I did. I was a mind reader
We are not supposed to let her out of our sights she a newborn!
The thought passed through everyones mind at the same time
"Where is she?" Jasper snarled and moved closer to Alice. Alice stuck her tounge out at him and walked away.
"I don't know!" I said honestly. I knew it was honest because I watched her dissapear and never tell me where she went.
"What do you mean you don't know? She must have? You must have seen her run out the door or something?"
"Think about it Jasper... can you smell her?"
"No" he replied quielty I heard a sudden intake of breath from all but one vampire which I knew to Alice. She sighed and said
"Edward start at the beginning!" and I retold the tale of Bellas dissaperance.
