Part 1.
Another day, another hunt. That was what my existence had come down to. The ramblings of tourist captured by my power. Then the offering them to my masters. That repeated over and over whenever we needed to feed at least within Volterra.
"Hey Heidi, We have a mission. It's of 'utter importance'." Demetri greeted me at the breaking of the dawn. I never got sent on those missions, I'm a hunter not a seeker. "There is a nomad vampire, she has a master who promised her to us when he woke from his hibernation. He's awake and we need to capture her." He handed me two pictures, one of a girl with white hair and blue eyes another with the same appearance but black hair and red eyes. "Depending on how hungry she is or when she fed, that is what she looks like."
"Why do they want me? I do the hunting not the gathering. From what you said, they want her alive." I was good at the killing, too. Once again, capturing and keeping things alive was not in my forte.
"Marjorie has a power like yours. She was a witch and when she was turned her hunger took over her appearance and she has a shadow that can take over someone's body and manipulate it." He took the pictures back.
"I don't manipulate people. I simply show them what they desire." I took in a pointless breath of air and sighed, an old human habit that I keep to fool the locals.
"Just do it. You never get to leave Volterra anyway. Aren't you sick of being here?" Demetri waved my black traditional Volturi cloak in my face.
"Fine, where do we have to go?" I snatched it and swirled it as if it was a gown around my shoulders. It settled and rested gently against my frame.
"Our favorite place, Forks." I grinned as Demetri said the place of our favorite clan, the Cullens.
As usual, we fed and left. I put contacts in my eyes for the plane ride which was another ritual thing. A man walked passed me and gave me a wink. Demetri let out a snorted laugh and stopped when I gave him a scowl. "I hate humans." I muttered under my breath.
"But they love you." He was suppressing a laugh. That was the last time we spoke on the way there. I closed my eyes and pretended to sleep for the entire time to Seattle. Then we drove quietly to Forks.
"Is she staying with the Cullens?" I'd hope so. I can't wait to see how much Renesmee has grown. When I saw her she was toddler and she had such a wonderful power. Despite she was just like a human, I found her pleasing to be around.
"We think so. I just need to get slightly near her to track her anyway. If she bolts right before we get there I can probably pick up her tenor." Demetri grinned as he put more force on the pedal of the rented car.
"We have to return this in one piece you know and there are cops around here." I crossed my arms, I hated dealing with him sometimes. He acted like such a human.
[If you didn't realize I despise the species. Humans are vulgar and don't care for anything. They live life as if its free and don't care about the consequences. If they could see what their choices did to the future, they wouldn't have done some of the stuff. Vampires are the ones who have to deal with it all. That is why I hate humans, they are food and that is it.]
"That is why I have you here long legs. A cop comes you charm them and he will just give us a warning or nothing." I rolled my eyes.
"Can't we just drain him for a light snack?" The thought made my throat burn for some fresh warm AB positive or any blood for that matter.
"Remember, we can't feed on humans while we are here. Aro says it's out of respect. They respect Volterra when they are there and we should do the same."
"That is why I don't leave." I crossed my arms again. "Damn rules." I muttered.
After a few hours of speeding through the American country side of the Olympic Peninsula we reached the turn for the Cullen Mansion. They were all outside running around like a happy little family. Renesmee looked as if she was thirteen, after all it has been four years. Her little lap dog was running around with her as Bella sat watching the two. Edward came towards the car as we stopped.
"You must know why we are here, Edward. After all you have the pixie." Demetri got out of the car and stood with his arms crossed over his body as he looked slightly downward towards Edward. "I see our mission and we are taking it back." He pointed toward the white haired Marjorie.
"Hello Demetri, Heidi." Renesmee came along side her father she touched the side of his face and then looked at us.
"Renesmee here doesn't want Marjorie to leave. She is rather interesting to have around." Edward put an arm around his daughter.
"Sorry, rules are rules." I said with a smug tone. Demetri looked at me as if he never saw me be smug before.
Soon Bella was next to Edward, probably using her power to prevent me from using mine on anyone there. Sometimes I hated that woman. Why didn't she just die a human? "Bella, Edward, Renesmee. You see, Marjorie has a master, he created her. He has awoken."
"Villius has awoken?" Marjorie came to the growing cluster with doe eyes. I nodded. "Oh, is he in Volterra? I miss him so much." I nodded again. She turned to Mister and Missus Cullen with big amber doe eyes. "I need to go back. I promised I would. I'll come and visit you, little Nessie." She tussled the little hybrid's hair.
The rest of the Cullen clan came to see what was going on and they insisted we stayed for a little bit so they had a little bit more time with Marjorie. "I guess she grew on them?" I nudged Demetri. He nodded as he watched her intensely.
"I wonder if her master is her mate. It's possible." He eventually said.
"Doubt it. Could you imagine Marcus being my mate? That just doesn't work."
"That's cause your a frigid bitch." He laughed.
"I am not. I just haven't found someone to be my mate. Sorry." I huffed and crossed my arms.
Demetri walked along side Marjorie and whispered into her ear. She let out a giggle and they all sat together talking about whatever. I stood against the wall disconnected from the group scowling.
"What's wrong?" Emmett, the bear of the clan, stood next to me.
"Nothing." I kept scowling forward.
"I don't need to be Jasper to tell when something is wrong." He cocked his eyebrow as I side glared at him.
The sun set and Renesmee sluggishly climbed onto the back of her lapdog and he set of quietly as she fells asleep. Edward and Bella said good-bye and followed Jacob. Renesmee perked up and hopped off the wolf's back. "Marjorie, you must visit!" She said after running into the vampire's arms. Then Jacob came back and got her.
"Demetri, Marjorie are you ready?" I was irritated now. I didn't want to stay very long and we had been there for several hours. They nodded and got up to leave. Marjorie gave hugs good-bye as I waited anxiously by the door.
"You've been here for a while?" I asked Marjorie.
"Yea, a few years. I got used to the animal blood after while. It was worth it, they are really nice." She had a large grin on her face. "I wonder if the master is as excited to see me as I am to see him." She got into the back and was tapping her feet on the floor board.
"Are you mates?" Demetri asked.
"Oh, no. I am like his daughter. I never found a mate. But I am in no rush, I do have forever." She grinned and Demetri gave me a devilish grin.
What he was going to do was his business, I wasn't going to get involved in his little game.
We boarded the plane and I pretended to sleep once more. Humans were irritating and the one next me talked and talked and talked. Sleeping was the best facade I could possibly think of. The entire time Marjorie and Demetri were exchanging funny stories and other such trivial things. I kept in mind that we were headed back to Volterra where fresh blood was open for my taking.
The plane touched down and I couldn't help but see every human as a meal. A nice plump tourist who donned a camera around his neck, typical, probably taste of cheeseburgers and french fries. Then I caught a whiff of a sweet scent, a young girl brushed up against my side. She was about fourteen. The blood in her veins were much more pure than that plump tourist, even if she had less to spare.
"Make it quick." Demetri smelt it, too. He could feel the burning and knew I needed it more than he did.
"Are you lost?" I looked into her eyes and with a few more words she followed me down an alley way. Aro and Marcus approved of little snacks here and there, especially for his very special guards, myself being one of them. The young girl wasn't lost but a run away. Perfect.
Feeding on humans was the most natural of our instincts, how anyone could feast upon anything else was beyond me. It gave meaning to life. It was the meaning of my life. It gave me power. A life in my hands squirming to break free but will die within my grasps. The blood enters the mouth with such force because the victim should have a good heart. The heart will pump fiercely out of fear, sending the blood into the mouth faster and warmer. Each gush of blood that passed through my lips, I can remember the feeling. Like I said, feeding on humans was the most natural.
"A run away? Why did you run away?" I brushed my hand against her face in the dark alley. She had long blonde hair that I brushed away from her cheek. My hand ran down her neck and I felt the warm blood rushing past faster and faster the longer my hand touched her.
"Yeah. I-I... Your hands are cold." She shivered.
"I never noticed." I moved my hand to her thigh and she shivered some more.
"Really, well, uh." I held my hand on her thigh and moved my other hand to her face. "I never- I-I-I" Her eyes blinked furiously.
"There is no need to be afraid of me." I laughed on the inside. She was a treat, a full package. I new Demetri was waiting for me and it was either kill her now or save her for later. "You can stay at my place tonight, get a good meal then you can have a nice warm couch to sleep on. I don't have a guest bedroom." I wanted to savor every last drop of that sweet pure blood that was in that body.
"I thought.." Demetri started to speak then I put my hand up.
"You take her to Aro and I have to deliver this one to my place. I will meet you there." I had a flat near the main Volturi hideout. I kept this flat strictly for my private use.
I guided the human there, Eliza was her name. "Eliza, you can make yourself comfortable. I will be back later. I have some business. There are clothes in the room if you'd like. Take a nap if you want to do that instead."
"Why are you helping me?" She sat on her hands leaning forward and I could smell the blood inside of her.
"Because there are time when people need to be nice. You are a run away, and I have no one else to care for. We were brought together by the fates." I put my finger underneath her delicate chin. Oh, I was a very good liar. Fate brought us together alright, for her to be my dinner.
She grinned and I took my leave. "What if she leaves?" Demetri asked as I met with him and whitey. They had waited for me outside of where the Three Masters waited for Marjorie.
"That is what you are for my dear idiotic friend." Then we went in.
It was always formal within that room, we bowed before the masters and their wives. "Ah, I see you've come with Marjorie." Aro stood from his place and walked down to examine her. "Been feeding on animals, haven't we?" He lifted her chin and examined her hair.
"Villius, you didn't lie about her beauty. Someone give her a snack, I wish to see what this beauty looks like with her raven hair." Marjorie gulped. I could tell she had grown accustom to the "vegetarian" way of life but when he master stepped forth with a young man in his hands for her, she lightened up and had her snack.
The black of her hair flowed through the white like oil flowing through snow. We were all at awe by this ability. No one has seen it in action before. This type of power was very very rare but common among the vampires that were created during the witch trials in Europe, well those that were real witches at least.
"Marjorie, my dear, you haven't changed a bit." Villius handed the body off to a inferior vampire and hugged his little creation. "It's been too long." She melted into his arms.
"Well, now that this reunion has occurred, shall we get some dinner?" Marcus looked at me and had a large grin on his face.
"If you don't mind, old friend, can Marjorie and I spend some time together? Instead of sending her out with Heidi to hunt." I cocked my eyebrow. I didn't even think she would be coming with me. I hunted with Felix or Demetri.
"Sure why not? Demetri, accompany Heidi tonight. We only need about, um, ten I'd say. I had a bit to eat earlier." Marcus did look a little satisfied, but the rest looked ravenous and were going insane over the scent of blood that was lifting through the air after Marjorie feasted.
