Chapter One: The Prime Minister's Office

Demetri

It was Felix holding me up, hooking his arms underneath mine to keep me somewhat straight. I wished he would drop me, leave me to despair on my own.

I stared at the Minister for Magic in front of me. He gave me a sympathetic look before turning his back away, muttering something like he was sorry before disappearing. My coven was stood, crowding around me like sympathetic vultures. It was only Felix who bared my pain; he cared for my fiancé as much as I did.

"She's dead." I finally said. Felix finally dropped me.

"She's not dead she's missing." He said flatly as he crouched down in front of me. I looked up at him. "Find her."

I closed my eyes at his words. "I can't, I've lost her tenor for weeks now. I just thought it was magic…" I looked up at Marcus. He was the man I was soon to become, an unhappy, emotionless vampire suffering with the loss of his mate. Finally I could see why Edward had come to die all those years ago.

"Fuck that." Felix said, also looking up at Marcus, almost reading my mind. He grabbed me and pulled me up. "She's not dead she's missing. It's Evelyn for Merlin's sake! I won't believe it!" He said angrily, pushing me towards the doors.

For years I searched with him and for years I didn't find her…

Evelyn

I clutched the note in my hand. Fuming. I can't believe he was putting me through this! I walked up the stairs. Number ten Downing Street was vacuumed and cleaned twice a day. Everything was pristine. My black courts clicked against the wooden flooring and I caught myself in the mirror as I passed. I was currently tall but slim, slightly tanned with brown hair cascading down my back. It was difficult to keep a human appearance being a vampire but I did it well. I smiled at my appearance. I looked positively human.

I opened the door to the Prime Ministers office without waiting for a reply after I'd knocked. He sat behind a big wooden desk and didn't look up at me. I closed the door quietly and strode towards him, only when I was halfway across the room did he look up.

"Ah, Miss Cullen." He smiled. I didn't return it and slammed the note down in front of him.

"Kingsley will be here in half an hour. So will your other guests."

He sighed and closed the book he was writing in. "Evie, I know you're not happy about this but…"

"I told you, the Volturi and I do not get on. The least you can do is keep quiet about who I am. Do you understand?" He nodded quickly.

"Thank-you, for staying here. Kingsley said you wouldn't do it but you've been working for me for a year now. I can trust you." He paused. "The only vampire I can trust it seems."

I looked at him and the anger inside me died down slightly. He was scared, and so he should be. "Don't mention that, that you know what I am. I'll do my best to protect you tonight but please don't count on it. Aro's a shifty character. It's all fine and dandy in the world of vampires at the best of times, when the Volturi aren't involved."

"What do you have against them?"

I looked away from him. "I don't have anything against them, it's what I've done." He looked at me, opening his mouth to say more. "You don't need to know." I decided instantly, snapping at him. I didn't want to spend my time remembering what I'd done to Demetri.

We waited five more minutes in silence before there was a knock on the door outside. I looked out the window, seeing a figure in black step into the threshold. I didn't need to announce they were here, he already knew and as the door opened a couple of minutes later I turned away from Aro Volturi and looked out the window.

"You're early!" The Prime Minister greeted.

"Yes," Aro said. "I like to arrive early. It gives us time to, ah, discuss what this may mean for you."

I turned and glared at Aro. He was dressed in a black suit, shirt and tie. His skin was paper white and the usual red eyes were violet. His long black hair fell down to his shoulders, falling like silk over the black expensive blazer.

Beside him was Felix, also dressed in black. He hadn't changed, still as muscular and still as threatening. My eyes then skipped to the last visitor, Demetri. My heart panged slightly as I looked at him, he was staring right at me. I looked away from him and spoke directly to Aro. It was valid I had the upper hand in this.

"The Prime Minister is already aware of the consequences of this meeting, which he will not remember tomorrow. There is therefore no need to place a death sentence over his head, for all we might know vampires will not be an issue and it can be dealt with as a ministry issue."

Aro raised an eyebrow at me. By the looks on their faces, none of them know who I was. That's the way it needed to be kept. "Tell me, Prime Minister, why you have a vampire working in your services. It makes me very curious."

"I'm employed by Kingsley to protect the Prime Minister, if you have a problem I suggest you take it up with him and Mr Potter. I'd like to see you try."

Felix put a step towards me in anger; of course I was insulting his master. I was ready for him. Demetri, however, stopped him. He knew. I could see it in his eyes.

"Who are you?"

"That's none of your business." I said as the fire behind him roared to life.

Kingsley Shacklebolt, the Minister for Magic, stepped out of the emerald green flames. He was a tall black wizard with broad shoulders and dressed in emerald robes. He nodded at me, his one gold earring moving with him. After him came Mr Potter. He was tall and broad with black messy hair and the same glasses I'd seen everyday since I was eleven. I grinned at him and he returned it.

"Ah, Minister, you finally arrive." Aro said smiling.

"I was held up at the ministry, reporters are gathering by the second in the atrium, all wanting stories on the vampire boy." Kingsley replied in his deep voice.

"I have told you we cannot take responsibility of the boy." Aro said. I furrowed my eyebrows at him.

"You had no problem in taking Evelyn Cullen, why change your mind now?" Harry Potter asked. I saw Demetri wince slightly and look away out the window. I glared at Harry.

"Evelyn was…an exception." Aro said, glancing at Demetri. "That was our fault. This however has nothing to do with us!"

I watched as Harry and Kingsley opened their mouths to argue and shook my head. "Enough!" I snapped. "Arguing over this isn't going to get anything achieved. The Prime Minister has the right to know what's going on and we need to start keeping each other updated if we're going to tackle the Inner Circle. The last thing we need is to start making enemies of each other, it's what they want."

Kingsley stared at me for a moment before nodding. He turned to the Prime Minister. "You may want to sit down." He waited for him to sit before continuing. "Everything I told you last month, it's happened and it's about to get worse, for all of us. I told you of a witch, being able to see the future. She made a prophecy. The vampire boy will be the death of us all if we do not help him." Kingsley looked at me. "The nineteenth of June, Alice Cullen said." I nodded in confirmation.

"Alice Cullen said what?" Aro asked slowly.

"We have until the nineteenth of June. Then we all die." I answered. "The Inner Circle takes over the world and we amount to nothing, the Volturi amount to nothing."

I heard a sigh from the Prime Minister. "I thought this was dealt with, twenty eight years ago."

"So did I, when I killed Voldemort. No one knew this was going to happen." Harry said. "You do realise the seriousness of this. If we don't succeed…"

"We will." Kingsley said, cutting him off. He looked at the Volturi. "If our allies comply."

Aro stared at him, I could see the cogs ticking, almost as if he was considering.

"Master," We all looked at Demetri when he spoke up. "There's someone outside." I moved over to the window beside him. He was right, there was someone out there. A figure covered in a cloak was looking up at us.

I took Demetri by surprise as I spoke next. "Move away from the window." I whipped out my wand and saw Kingsley and Mr Potter follow in my actions.

The glass shattered due to a curse, which threw us away from the window. I landed on my back, cursing as I stood up. Aro, Felix and Demetri were all crouched ready for attack. Mr Potter and Kingsley were getting up from the blow and the Prime Minister was crawling hurriedly under his desk. He appeared out of nowhere, a black hooded figure, and I disarmed the spell he aimed at me. I saw Demetri lunge for him but this wasn't what we wanted. Mr Potter and Kingsley were already pulling the Prime Minister out from under the desk. I saw Kingsley apparate with him from the room leaving Mr Potter behind.

"We need to get out of here, Evie!" He shouted to me.

I threw a stunning spell at the hooded figure. "I know!" I shouted back. I gasped as something glass had shattered behind me and rushed forward towards Aro. I grabbed him and Felix as they dodged another spell by the hooded figure. Without hesitation, I apparated, landing straight in the muddy waters around The Burrow.
