Hey, I'm really, really sorry I haven't added a second chapter to this story like I said I would. Don't hate, my computers been out for weeks. But, now or never here's the chapter I promised you all, so please read and enjoy:)
I walked inside the center of the circle, obeying Aro's command. "Yes, Master?" I asked, proudly, giving a small bow.
The man standing in front of me, tall and superior with white, silvery hair fallen below his shoulders smiled proudly before me. "Our beloved daughter," he said silkily. "You have done us all proud of your success!"
I tried hard not to blush. "Yes, I am very pleased with myself, as well, Father."
"Which is why we have chosen you to take on another task." he mentioned solidly. "Would you be interested?"
My eyes lit up. "Yes! I mean-uh, why yes. I would like that very much, Father."
A fierce, growling noise pierced through my ears. "Shh," I hissed, "Stop it, Abby!" I ordered her, sharply. Immediately, the gray-haired Siberian-Husky hushed. "Sit." Obediently, she sat back down on her hind legs.
"Good girl," I told her sincerely, giving her a short rub on the neck, then turned back to Aro. "When do I take on the task?" There was a hint of sparked eagerness in my voice.
"But, my dear," he said, fallen into a low tone. "You don't even know what it is. Are you sure you want to take on this responsible task? Its quite dangerous, and very difficult."
"I don't care," I persisted, without thinking. "Just tell me what I have to do."This job was important to me, and I didn't care how far I would have to go to earn an honorable name for my work. If it ever comes to be, I would even die doing what I love, and what I do best in; serving the Volturi.
He grinned, pleasantly. "Loyal to your decision; I like that in my guards and employees. Your doing great, my daughter!" His tone became smooth. "So for you task, you will go far from here, and enter the new world in America. You will search for a coven-a very large one in particular-and seek out one who is not what it seems. You will know what I mean when when your senses see it for themselves."
I nodded, stiffly. It was difficult to show that I understood what he meant by in the meaning of my task, but I felt he would look down upon me if I asked him to explain it more basically.
Basically. No, I was more intelligent than that, I would just have to simplify it a little. But I would most certainly not make him regret all that he has said about me.
"You understand?" he asked, kindly to me.
I nodded. "Yes, Master. I will explore America and search for the coven who carries an unusual member." Wow, I did know what I was supposed to do.
He nodded in agreement. "Precisely, and when you find her you will do what I have authorized you to do. . .Annihilate her."
"I will do whatever you request, Master." I bowed.
He grinned. "That you are right, my darling." He drew near, not minding my dogs snarling dangerously back at him. "So it is official." he stated, then taking my hand. "You leave tonight. Caius and Alec will accompany you and make sure you arrive safely at the airport. There they were give you your tickets, but after that you are own your own." He stared at me. "You are one of my most loyal members, Dakota Herring. I wish you well, and hope for what has done all of Volterra good that you return with success once again." He lifted my hand up, kissing it with his cold lips.
I'll try and update as soon as possible. Promise. Don't hate me if its not that great, this is only my first fanfic. Be nice:)
