A/N: Hope you enjoy this chapter, please R&R I'd love to know what you think.

The Sleeping Wind

I did not see you standing tall
While the birds sang in their trees
Once looked fierce but now looks small
In this cold and heartless breeze

I do not know who you are
Our paths may never cross
But always are you, my shining star
without you I'm at a loss

For since you have gone
I have done all and sinned
so before the break of dawn
End this nightmare, once and for all,
of the forever sleeping wind

Years have passed and he never retuned but I don't hate him no I just learnt to become numb feel nothing and pretend to live. Living had become easy it was like some twisted game, a game of cat and mouse, who ever fell first, would lose and I had no intent of doing so. I am unbreakable, well to humans anyway but to the people that know me they see right through me, they watch as the damage inside me slowly heals but nobody would ever voice there thoughts. Nope they always just think them and that at times can be worse ten times worse. I have walls for certain things and just sometime they fall and I watch parts of my life play through on a loop, the same scenes over and over again. I'm trapped within my own self pity but each time I try to get out something or should I say someone claws me back in. It would be silly of me to say that just because I have people round me it doesn't mean that I am loved, no I'm more of a trophy to show off after all, I have gifts that others would kill for.

Kill being the optimum word but I don't let stuff like that get to me. I hate being looked at for any length of time, people eyes boring into my back as I walk just trying to be a nobody as silly as that sounds being a nobody can be quiet a fulfilling life.

It saddens me knowing that one day it'll will be all to much and I think I'll just stop altogether, it's not like anyone would miss me.

I looked up from my journal as a soft knock came from my door.

"Bella dear, will you be joining us tonight?" His voice had worn away with age but it still held the same commanding tone and a touch of fatherly love.

"I'm not sure Aro, I've been thinking a lot since I can't sleep and I was wondering if I could possible go back to Forks?" I sounded weak to my own ears but I was being pleasant. And it was something I felt as though I had to do. The process of healing took a long time.

"Lets take a walk shall we." He extended his hand and I accepted. He was like family in some weird twisted up way but all families have their problems.

I wasn't looking forward to this talk it's like when you have the "sex" talk with your parents just a little better. I hope anyway. I new by going to Forks it would be hard but in away it will be like shock therapy, good for the system. It's already taken me sixty years to pluck up the courage to ask. We stepped out into the hall, it still took my breath away it was old, and captured the beauty of the whole place in one try. I watched the guards from the corner of the room they never left and I was quite glad I didn't have any. Aro was watching me as I watched them.

"You don't like them do you."

I didn't feel the need to return an answer, so carried on looking at them, they were all chosen because they were special, as was I.

"Bella dear, why would you want to go back to Forks of all places?" His voice was licked with curiosity.

I looked over towards the guards and shook my head. They all seemed to know too much for my liking, they new things that others didn't so I did have a reason about not being so trust worthy.

"Fine then." He waved his hands and the guards were gone with a few scowls heads in my direction but I just waved them off.

"Now please proceed."

" I have no proper idea but I think I have to it will make my life a little more bearable, for the moment. I hate the fact that he seems to half way control my life when I try to stop him." That was not the whole truth but it was a start.

"Ok dear." He gently patted me on the back.

" I want to go and get Charlie's house and be able to vist his grave, since I missed his funeral, have you ever watched someone die and been unable to do anything?" My voice was contorted with anger and pain.

"Bella I have not. And we helped you get the house." He seemed pleased that I was letting him in and that he'd been able to help.

" I know and for that I am grateful, I truly am. It would have broken me even more if I'd lost Charlie's house." I smiled over at him we'd seem to have grown further apart as we walked on.

" Bella, I don't want you by yourself you have to have a guard. I don't want you to leave but if that is what is going to make you happy with life then please don't let me be the one to stop you. How long will you be gone for?" He seemed saddened by the fact that I was leaving.

" Till the end of school and maybe longer, I never graduated remember, I want to end my education there. Who will be going with me?" This was the part I hadn't been looking forward to, I talked to people in the Volturi but I had no proper friends." They all just seemed a little to out there for my liking.

" I'll have to think about that, is there anyone you'd want with you?" It seemed an easy enough question to answer.

"I'll be fine by myself and I don't want anyone killing someone living in Forks, that would be a little upsetting. My house would be to small." I sighed I wasn't going to win this argument, I drank from animals it made me feel more humane and nobody ever said anything about it they'd occasionally ask why I do it but that doesn't bothered me not now anyway.

"Bella you're a walking danger even as a vampire, I'd feel better knowing you had someone, we could all make you a family so it wouldn't feel odd being by yourself at school?" His voice was musing that over as he spoke.

" I give up, give me a fake family to live with for a couple years but they don't hunt in Forks or near it ok? And they don't live in my house."

"Fair enough but they'll be close by. When were you thinking of leaving?"

"Tomorrow, if that's alright cause I need to get the house ready since nobody's lived there for the best part of forty odd years now. And school starts in two weeks. I think"

"That's good to know you've planned it all, come and see me in three hours and I'll have people to go with you."

"Ok."

That had been easier than I'd thought, I practically skipped back to my room, packing all my things away; there was only one problem, I'd need a car and a new piano cause my old ones staying here. Most of my boxes included all my books and just one or two of clothing. My nerves began to kick in as I walked towards Aro's room; this was the moment I'd been working up to for the past couple of years. The moment of truth.

I'd walked towards the door taking in unnecessary breaths will myself to be ready for anything he troughs at me.

"Come in dear." His voice seemed nice enough but that could all change at a moment notice.

I stood and looked up at each of the vampires joining me. I'd spoke to all of them Gianna had helped me when I'd gotten really depressed at one point so this arrangement wasn't going to be that bad.

" Are these the people joining me?"

" Yes, Alec and Jane, Gianna and Felix will all be joining to your journey to Forks for the next couple of years, they have been briefed and know what to do if anything were to go wrong." He looked over at them and each returned with a small nod.

" Aro you talk as though someone's out to kill me which I find highly unlikely, I'm just going to school nothing more nothing less."

"If you say so." Will the rest of you please leave I'd like a moment of Bella's time."

He pointed towards the seats and I sat down. "Will you be needing anything before you set off?"

" No I should be alright." I look towards the ground; I wouldn't let him give me anymore than what he already has.

" Bella you have no car and I'm one hundred percent sure you'll need something else so just spit it out." He glared over at me, until I cracked.

" Yes I need a car and a piano but I'll get all these things later, Aro I have more than enough money thanks to you."

" Well can I at least give you a leaving present?" His eyes lit up at the idea.

" Fine then."

He handed me over a small box very neatly wrapped and I removed the wrapping at a snails pace. The lid slipped off and into my lap fell a pair of keys.

" Thanks Aro." I hugged him for my new car it was an Aston Martin Vanquish; I'd driven his once and fell in love with it.

" It will give people something to talk about instead of you. One more thing I want you to enjoy your time at Forks." He laughed and waved me off.

Tomorrow was going to be my new start, in the place were my life had once started and had come to a short end.
