"The Darkening Sun"
Prologue
Caius could hear the cheers and howls of relief and happiness as the Volturi swiftly retreated from the large arena, deeper into the reaches of the dark Olympic Mountains of Forks. When the three Volturi leaders came to a halt their guards behind them stopped a mere second after their leaders, frozen in place as they waited for their orders. Without even needing to look to the man, Aro and Marcus could see that Caius was seething with rage.
"This is despicable brothers!" Caius shouted while throwing his hands into the air, finally vocalizing his outrage to his brothers who stood before him.
Marcus sighed as Aro frowned turning to the white haired vampire.
"Now, Caius, be reasonable. They were not guilty of any treason. This was a mere misunderstanding." Aro spoke soothingly. Caius snarled
"Be reasonable! Aro you fool, Carlisle Cullen and his coven had almost matched his numbers with ours! If it had come to a fight I would not be sure if we would have won." Caius ground out. "Something like this should have never happened! We are the Volturi, the Leaders of the vampires' worldwide! We always have the upper hand, and yet we could have lost! We retreated!"
"Well, as you can see it did not come to that Caius, so let us leave and find this vampire Joham. He is nothing but a nuisance." Marcus said in a dull voice, turning away when Caius grinned, his blood-lust in play.
Caius nodded at that, in no mood for any type of mercy.
"Yes, well that should make me feel better for now. Demetri! Jane!" Caius called fiercely.
Demetri and Jane both emerged out of the Volturi guard to stand before Caius.
"Yes Master Caius? What is your will?" Jane asked with a wicked smile displayed on her child like face.
"You and Demetri find this vampire named Joham. When you find him tell him that the Volturi has been made aware of his little experiments." The grin Jane displayed began to be echoed by Caius, "Let him know painfully that he is never allowed to do this anymore, and will never again get the chance. Then kill him… and his daughters as well, I fear that they would get in the way." The Ancient instructed Demetri and Jane.
Demetri bowed and motioned a sign with his hand and five other Volturi guards came to his side. Jane had a look of anticipation on her face as she swiftly moved to Demetri's side.
"Caius, Nahuel did ask us to leave his sisters alone, they are innocent to their father's experimentation." Aro interjected before Demetri's party left.
Demetri and Jane halted at the edge, looking to see if their instructions would be changed.
Caius looked at his brother and growled.
"Aro no one is ever innocent. Your soft heart will be our down fall!" Caius said accusingly.
Aro looked saddened for a second or two and then he shrugged.
"Fine Caius, do what you want. Go on Demetri and Jane. When you are done, come home." Aro said with a small wave of his paper like hand.
Demetri and Jane nodded both in unison, and vanished with only the leaves rustling in their wake.
Caius turned to Marcus and Aro, who were now centered around the remaining Volturi guards.
Caius had a slight smile on his lips as put his hands on his brothers' shoulders.
"Now my brothers, about Carlisle and Tanya's covens. I think we must start planning our counter attack immediately. We must terminate them and be rid of them for good." Caius informed his brothers.
Marcus stood there and shrugged slightly when Aro gave Caius a look of disapproval.
"Caius, Carlisle is a good friend and the covens that were there are also strong vampires in their own right. Plus it would be interesting to see the child of Edward and Bella grow. She could be a very good asset to us." Aro explained to Caius.
"Well we would not have to kill her and maybe we could keep the ones with extraordinary gifts alive and have them serve us in our guard." Caius compromised with Aro.
Aro smiled now as he seemed to warm up to Caius's idea. Then Aro's smile dimmed.
"Caius, I believe that someone in particular was missing from this little gathering." Aro told Caius who frowned at him.
"Who was missing Aro?" Caius asked a little frustrated.
"Well, Carlisle had some of his close friends there; I did not see the one that would have been there without question to my mind." Aro said simply.
Caius looked at Aro with confusion, but Marcus suddenly seemed to perk up, although he seemed a little agitated.
"She has not been seen by anyone for more than thirty years Aro. She has no desire to be found by anyone, why else would she disappear and hide her trail so well that not even Demetri could find her?" Marcus said with more emotion then anyone had ever seen him have.
Felix perked up at the last part of Marcus's sentence.
"Not even Demetri could find her. How odd she must really not want to be found." Felix thought to himself.
Felix tuned out the rest of what the three brothers were planning, although he heard something about werewolves and making more newborns. His thoughts were on this one vampire that gave Marcus so much emotion, more than he'd seen in decades and gave Demetri such a hard time when tracking.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It had been four days and finally Demetri, Jane and the rest of the Volturi guard had arrived. He was energetic, wanting to jerk some strings and rile up the vampire whom thought his position was always secure. Down a dark hallway that leads to the Guard's private rooms, Felix found Demetri, who had paused, smiling when Felix came to a stop beside him. After a moment of silence, Demetri rolled his eyes, gesturing for the other to move so he could go into his rooms, Felix slipping past the door before the massive man could close it.
Once the door was closed Demetri shot Felix a look as he threw his cloak aside, sitting down with a deep sigh as Felix lowered himself in a chair without invitation, eyes locked on the big man.
"So what do I owe this honor of your presence Felix?" Demetri asked curiously.
"Well I heard something that was most interesting." Felix answered slyly, holding his hands before his waist as he sat back.
"Oh and what was that?" Demetri asked nonchalantly.
"Well first let me ask you something. When you are sent to track someone, do you always find them?" Felix said somewhat curious. Demetri raised an eyebrow, giving the other vampire a look of confusion before rolling his eyes.
"Yes. I always find them. If I could not find the one I was sent to find, then I would not be the Volturi's best tracker." Demetri said dismissively.
Felix smiled; he knew that he had caught his friend in a lie. Well maybe not a complete lie, but a lie all the same.
"I beg to differ with you on that Demetri." Demetri's gaze snapped back to him "I have heard of one vampire in particular that has managed to escape you." Demetri eyes became wide as Felix went on. "Well I was curious about her and thought that you could help inform me about this one creature that has managed to elude you." Felix explained. Demetri sighed and shifted a little in his chair.
"Well this vampire happens to be a special case. She is, as you already know, the only one to ever escape me, but only because of her own ability at tracking. Her name is Sophie De Leon. She was with the Volturi for over five hundred years, she was the best tracker then before she gave up her position when Carlisle Cullen came here. Sophie always hated what she was and hated that the Volturi fed off of humans. I'm guessing at that time she thought she had no choice, but when Carlisle and showed her that she had other options and she was forever grateful to him. No one has seen her for thirty years now, so I was told to leave her alone." Demetri finished. Felix nodded, deeply intrigued by this Sophie De Leon.
"Well when Aro mentioned her, Marcus seemed to get upset that she was mentioned. I have never seen him act like that." Felix added. Demetri sighed and got up from his chair.
"That is because Marcus was in love with Sophie. Well I suppose I should say "still" in love with her. He was the one that told me to stop trying to track her. He knew that she hated it here and so he let her go." Demetri explained.
Felix was even more interested with every word he heard. He wanted to find this vampire, this Sophie De Leon, although it would not be easy. Then he had an idea.
"Demetri one more question. Where did Sophie De Leon live in her human life?" Demetri thought a second before answering.
"In France. Paris, France."
Felix smiled; now he knew exactly where to look.
