I cant believe I got lost, now i'm going to miss my bus back to the village, damn. I never felt so annoyed with my prone to getting lost then right now, of all places to get lost, I mean sure Italy isn't that bad, actually its great but volterra just has a kind of evil aura, I don't like it.

I heard voices behind me and I turned to see if I could get directions but as soon as I made eye contact with the most astoundingly beautiful women you could ever meet I was lost for words. The beautiful women with the startling red eyes told me to follow her, and I was too memorized to do anything but what she asked me.

She led me through the ally ways and came too a dead end where there were more people waiting anxiously. I was starting to feel afraid now and slightly frustrated, because I came to the conclusion that the beautiful women was taking me back to my tour group but now I realised that I let myself walk straight into yet another dangerous situation, I did that quite a lot.

The women turned to us and in a voice that sounded like bells said, "now come and I will show you the true mysteries of volterra"

I couldn't help but protest, I wanted to find my way back to the tour group, not to be shown some phoney mysteries of a city that I found quite frightening.

"I don't want to be shown some mysteries, I want to go back to my tour group" I said with less force than I intended to.

"ah, but you will be back with your group shortly my dear, I assure you that this wont take long" the beautiful women protested.

I didn't care if it took long or not, I had neither time or patience to put up with another frustrating tour. I turned to walk away, with no idea where I was going. It wasn't long that I had started walking when I felt a could hard grip form around my wrist.

"your going the wrong way" the women said with a frustrated look on her beautiful face.

With that she led me through a door with the rest of a group and down a long flight of stairs.

This meeting with carlisles old friends was as boring and useless as I thought it would be. Alice and Rosalie were discussing the upcoming trends in Italy with some of the wives and jasper and Emmett were amusing them selves with a round of some ridiculous game with demetri and Felix, not exactly how I pictured the actions of the volturi guard but still never the less boring. Carlisle spent the last three hours catching up with his old friend Aro with Esme standing quietly at carlisles side, I could tell she wasn't exactly comfortable being here so close to their feeding time, which wasn't really that far away I could hear the group getting closer to the room we were in.

"Aro" I said not caring if I interrupted their conversation, neither did he quite frankly Aro found me interesting, well not me exactly but my talent to read minds although he could read minds as well and gain so much more information than me, but still he could never do it without contact and that is what made him so interested in me.

"yes Edward" he answered calmly, but i'm sure he knew what I was getting at.

"it looks like your supper is arriving soon and if you don't mind we would rather not be present during this event" I said mimicking his calmness.

"ah yes, of course" he chuckled.

"well then be sure to return tomorrow so I can bid you goodbye" Aro said.

"of course, until then Aro" Carlisle said and with that we started to exit the room. I tried not to look at the group of humans that was on their way to death but as I looked up I locked eyes with a beautiful human with wide dark chocolate brown eyes. She looked scared and she looked back at me with a pleading look in her eyes. I tried to look away but I couldn't, her eyes and the look on her face made me want to pick her up and take her far away from the monsters that she was being led to, the monsters that would suck her blood dry and take away her precious life. It was then when I realised when I was looking into her wide brown eyes that I couldn't hear her. Of course she wasn't saying anything but I could always hear what a person was thinking, but yet there was nothing from the beautiful human that was being led into the room filled with monsters still pleading with me through her eyes.

By now the group was nearly finished filling in through the door that would lead to their deaths, none of them had a clue that they were all in danger, none except from the human with the silent thoughts. She was last in the group to come to the entrance of the door and I could feel the stares I was getting from family questioning why I was just standing there like an idiot staring at the most beautiful human in the world.

The girl hesitated at the door after seeing what was inside and took a step back. She turned in attempt to flee but was caught by the wrist by Demetri and he crushed against the wall.

"where do you think you are going" he chuckled.

"please, please let me go, please" the girl said in a soft and pleading voice.

"haha I don't think so" Demetri chuckled as he bent over her.

The girl gasped and I could not take this anymore. I ran up to Demetri and pulled him off of the girl. In attempt to get away the girl quickly got up from where she had fallen in shock and ran. I did not realise that Demetri had got up and went after her until he grabbed her around the waist and pinned her to the floor. I ran over to pull him away again but was restrained by Felix.

"what is the meaning of this" Aro commanded making everyone freeze.

"I was just going to have supper when Edward found the need to interrupt" Demetri explained.

"well Edward what is the meaning of this, I thought you wanted to leave?" Aro asked

"I was going to leave, but the girl caught my attention" I explained

"how so?" Aro asked

" I cant hear her, and i'm sure if you try you couldn't either" I told him.

Aro glanced at the girl then back at me, than a small smile appeared on his face. Aro started to approach the girl and quickly motioned for Demetri to move. He got up and the girl struggled to her feet and started to make her exit again but Aro grabbed her around the wrist and forced her back in front of him with unnecessary force, I heard the quiet snap of her bone and the small scream of pain from the girl. It was very hard not to pounce on Aro that moment and force him to release her, but I knew that action would cause my death and her death to come allot quicker.

"what is your name child" Aro asked in voice that was clear he was frustrated that he was interrupted during his meal.

"let me go" the girl yelled with much more force than I thought she was capable of.

"now there is no need to be hasty dear I simply want to no your name and then you may leave if you wish" the moment the words were out of Aro's mouth I knew his thoughts contradicted otherwise.

"Bella" she whispered

"now i'm assuming that Bella is short for Isabella, am I correct?" Aro said

"yes" Bella replied

"now Bella, why is it that you refuse to be in my presences?" Aro asked her

"it is not only your presence that I refuse to be in, I demand you let me leave, right now" Bella said forcefully

"well i'm afraid I cant do that Bella, the choice is yours, you die or you stay" Aro said

I look of pure horror covered the girls face as she heard this news.

"why, why cant I go?" the girl said in a voice that was barely above a whisper.

Aro chuckled "well I guess I know your answer" and with that he stated to lean over Bella.

"NO" I roared as ran across the room only to be restrained again.

"what is the meaning of this Edward" Aro asked in a shocked voice.

"let her go" I said never taking my eyes off Bella as I said it, her eyes also never left mine.

I don't understand what is happening, why is this man trying to kill me and why is the beautiful bronzed haired boy trying to save me, i'm sure I have never met him before, so why would he feel the need to protect me?

"Edward she is just a human why would it matter to you if she seised to exist?" Aro asked.

The bronzed haired boy approached Aro and held out his hand never taking his gaze away from mine. His eyes were a golden liquid colour and he was mesmerizing. Aro took the boys hand and I felt like stepping in between them to stop Aro from hurting him swell, but Aro simply bent his head over their joined hands and began to chuckle. Now I was truly confused, I tore my eyes away from the beautiful bronzed hair and looked at Aro that was looking at me like he was trying to uncover some deep secret. I glared at him, that only made him chuckle more.

"I would hate to upset you Edward so I will spare the girls life" Aro said with amusement still clear in his voice.

"thankyou" the bronzed hair boy said as he dropped his hand from Aro's grasp and looked back at me, I didn't realise that my attention had already turned back to him and I looked at him with a million questions in my eyes.

"I can go?" I asked him

I felt frustration when Aro answered my question instead of the angel that had just saved my life "yes my dear Bella you may leave but please, feel free to drop in when you are in the neighbour hood" he chuckled at his comment and turned to leave.

I looked back at the bronzed haired boy who was still staring at me, "thankyou" I whispered, I wasn't sure if he could hear me but apparently he could.

"we should leave" he said in a voice that sounded like bells.

He started to walk away and indicated that I follow, I hesitated not knowing if this was another trap or not. He turned back to me wondering why I wasn't following.

"its ok, I wont hurt you" he promised
