Hey everyone it is Stefanie, Peter's girlfriend (PerseusJFAN1016). I know I have my own account but since Peter is already kind of known on this account I figured that maybe it would be okay if I posted stories on his.

POV: Aro

It was a normal day of course. Being in the castle surrounded by the guards. Heidi had gone to fetch us a meal and we were all waiting patiently for her return. Earlier today I had been questioning myself again if it was possible that a mental and physical shield as a gift to on person was even possible. I knew then that if I was to ever come across one then I would change her so that he or she may join the guard. Of course if the person was already a vampire then it would be even easier for me.

The screams of mortal brought me out of my trance like state. I didn't even notice the feeding was beginning until of course the screaming started. I wondered what was up with me today. I shook that though from my head and quickly drained a human female that struggled but gave up as she lost too much blood.

"Stop hurting her!" A voice ran out and I stopped. I curse myself for stopping of course it was only a normal human. In fact when I looked up I found that a child was peering at me. "You hurt my mommy!" She yelled

"I don't know why you are yelling at me, child but stop it now!" I yelled back. Who on earth was this child? She just came into a castle saw many people getting murdered and she is yelling at me? I started to go toward her with the intention of drinking her dry, but I was stopped by an invisible force. "Renata!" I growled and faced her. "Why have you stopped me?"

"Master, I did not stop you. It seems as if the child has a physical shield." She whimpered

"Oh thank you Renata." I responded and shifted out of my crouch. "It seems that you are special little one." I said moving closer to the child. I then noticed the appearance. Mahogany hair with bright brown and green eyes. She was a truly cute thing. I was curious, I had thought that Renata was the only physical shield in the world. After all you can only have the same gift once, in vampires. No two gift were ever the same.

" I don't care if I am special. I just want to leave, now." She spat in my direction. I ignored her and continued

" I am afraid that I can't let you go. You see you know what we are, you could be a asset to our enemies." I pondered on what to do with the child

" Well you can't just keep me here, it is against the laws." I burst out laughing as well as the rest of the volturi.

"She thinks that we follow the laws." Demetri was on the floor laughing, clutching his chest.

"Child, if you didn't just notice we killed many people and that is against the law as well. What makes you think that we care?" Felix kneeled down to her height chuckling. SLAP! The child slapped Felix's face. Felix's head snapped to the side and the child started to giggle. Now she was the only one laughing and we all stood there in shock. How on earth was the child able to hit Felix hard enough to make his head snap to the side, even vampires had trouble with the task, as child should not be able to.

"How did you do that?" I managed to get out

" What do you mean?" The child sounded confused. "I got angry and I slapped him it isn't that hard or are you a weakling?"

" I can assure you I am not a weakling, child. Remember I can kill you with a flick of my wrist." I snarled

"No, you can't. I thought that you knew that already." I groaned silently, of course, how could I forget? She stuck her tongue out at me and I growled in fustration. I walked forwards to try and see if I could get through but again I was stopped by a force. I didn't know what to do. I was supposed to kill the child but it was impposible for me to. But I felt a feeling in my gut that the child was more important than I thought.

" Aro, perhaps we can offer the child a place in the guard. I know that she is a young child only but she is extremely gifted and I want to see what else she can do." Marcus drawled form behind me.

"Marcus, can you see if she has any bonds to the human world? I would like to know if she has an relatives." I said out loud.

" Aro, she does not. May I take my leave now?" I nodded and Marcus left with the two guards assigned to him.

" Child, what is your name?" My voice softened as I gazed at the child.

" My name is Bella. Well, my real name is Isabella but everyone calls me Bella and I prefer Bella." She answered me still glancing around warily at the rest of the guard who was staring intently at her.

" Well, Bella I am offering you a once in a lifetime chance to join us."

"No" I was stumped no one refused to join. I didn't usually let just about anyone in the guard and for someone to be invited, well, it was an honor. I quickly reminded myself that Bella didn't know much about the vamprire world and that we had just killed her parents and friends right in front of her.

" Bella, I will ask you again. Would you like to join us? I am promise you that we will not try to hurt you and that we want to invite you to join our family as our youngest member." I offered hopeful, I truly wanted to know more about this child and adopting her into the volturi was going to make sure that I would be able to learn more.

" Okay, I suppose it isn't like that I can go anywhere now." She pointed towards the pile of drained bodies. This child was truly weird. Not many children could calmly point to a huge pile of dead bodies.

"Wonderful" I clapped my hands together and everyone exited from their crouching positions. " I am sure that we will have tons of fun Bella." I said, not exactly sure on how she was going to change our family of vampires but I knew that she was going to change it greatly.
