Daintily, Jane Volturi picked up the perfectly carved and engraved hair brush made from elephant tusks with thick, brittle horse hairs. She slid the blood red ribbon out of her silky blonde locks and placed it carefully on her dressing table. Jane slowly combed her hair, separating the several knots. She tied her hair, which had less than no split ends, with the ribbon.

To conceal the translucent look around her unfed eyes, Jane reached for the thin metal wire that was filled with kohl made from slushy, thick tar. She oozed it around her eyes, outlining them and ending it with a flick. She threw on a pretty knee-height black dress and heeled red shoes.

Downstairs, things weren't going very well. Marcus was scolding at Cauis for the shortage of human blood and Cauis was scolding at Aro and Aro was brushing them off. Demetri was well fed thanks to Heidi's delivery of tourist yesterday.

Jane reached the final step of the magneficent curved staircase and thrusted the door open. She entered the luxurious Volturi headquaters. Felix whistled and eyed her when he saw the black dress she was wearing with a low-plunging neck line. She shot him a look that said 'Are you serious?"

It had been a year since the Volturi had confronted the Cullen's for the supposed crime of creating an immortal child. The child, however, was not immortal. The Volturi had steered clear of any trouble with the Cullen's since the confrontation. They didn't to be proven weak by Bella the shield or Emmett with his super-vampire strengh. Alice'd see them coming and make vital changes. Things were settled. For now, at least.

Jane walked swiftly across to Aro, a look of desperation on her face.

"Aro," She whispered harsly "Is she here yet?"

"No. Santiago's bringing them. I don't think she gave him an easy journey."

Felix scoffed followed by blood-thirsty Cauis.

Cauis is all in for the entertainment. He loves a good fight and a murder. Lots and lots of deaths. The funny thing is that he isn't as strong like the rest of the coven and posseses no great powers unlike Aro.

Just then, the door flew open. Santiago, with his bedraggled dreadlocks covering his face, entered, holding a human's hands behind her back. Her wrists were bloody and chained up. The female's mocha coloured locks were tousled and greasy.

Felix and Alec approached her, wearing hard and tough looks their faces. The human trembled, her breath intensifing. Demetri's chalky white face radiated fear as he focused his burgundy eyes on his mother.

In the past few months, Aro had been getting pretty bored with nobody to fight, nobody to blame nobody to kill. He decided that Demetri's mother, Aphrodiya, should be executed. She was one of the only humans that knew about the Volturi's existence through Demetri.

So the first thing Aro did that morning was order the Volturi guard, Santiago to capture Aphrodiya from Venice for her death. It was a double deal because they'd also get food out of it.

"Well, well, well. Look who we have here." Aro chimed, directing the statement at Aphrodiya.

"It seems she thinks she could get away with the biggest crime in vampire history." Cauis cutted in, his clear voice piercing the pin-drop silence.

"Cauis, my friend," Aro whipped his neck round to give Cauis a soft look.

"Jane, my sweet," Aro summoned her. A smile lit up onto her angelic face. "Pain." she whispered, satisfied.

Aphrodiya's face turned into a fericious growl, as she collapsed to the floor. She rolled of the marble floor, writhing in pain.

"JANE! Jane stop! Please stop!" Demetri urged her frantically.

Jane turned her head swiftly and the round of pain was cut of. Not for long. She focused on Demetri and a searing fire started coursing through his veins, eventually reaching his heart. Jane couldn't help but smile at his torture.

"Jane!" Aro sat out in digust. "How dare you try to kill a member of your own coven. We need every member to make us as powerful as possible.

"Santiago, take her to the dugeons."
