Ok so this is the first fanfic I have ever uploaded to actually be read by other people. As with necessary protocal: I don't own twilight or any of Meyer's characters.

Summary: The bond between Maker and Progeny is sacred and to be respected always. It is that bond which brings Bella to Volterra to retrieve the first progeny of one Dr. Carlisle Cullen, even though it has been her mission to stay as far off the Volturi's raider as possible for the entirety of her existence up to this point. So why is she risking herself so and who is she doing it for?

A Progeny's Loyalty

Chapter One: In which we wonder what she's doing

Coming here was a bad idea, every part of it from walking down this hallway right now to the train ride this morning, to boarding that stupid flying tin can two days ago after I was handed a ticket that goddamn hyper active midget had booked under a name she knew I would hate. I internally grumbled that it wasn't like I didn't have a plethora of alias's to choose from considering how long I've been around. Once again though she needed to test the control I had over my emotions, I wasn't allowed to kill her, and last time I maimed her – well let's just say it wasn't a lesson I needed to learn twice.

And now do to the internal musings of what I would like to do to that irritating sprite, I am at the huge double door entrance to what Buffy and her scoobies would call the big bad's lair. Reminding myself again who I'm really doing this for I take a deep breath and nod for the doors to be open.

Bad idea or not I'm here now and I have a job to do.
