Chapter 2
And now, I'm 16 in vamp years. Just had it yesterday good thing I won't have another party for another 4 years. Nessie, the child's name, is I'm guessing she's 5? But she develops fast. So she's like 16 or 17 right now.
Training's gotten harder, in battle and power, school's gotten harder through the years too. My battle combat was strictly NO powers. Marcus has gotten tougher, Marcus has like…..4 assistants helping me [by help I mean battling me] in combat. There's Demetri who's supposedly good, Chelsea's here, she's awesome! The only girl there! Amadeus, big guy, and stronger than me. Shaun, he's really fast, put a stick in his hand and you cant even see it or him if that's the matter.
I'm in battle training at the dungeons with Marcus watching as always. I am suppose to defeat these 4 fighters, they are amazing. And I'm like, this. So this is the floor plan. Marcus is up there in the chair. While the other four are hiding, a surprise attack, I can sense them in the room.
"Kali. Come here." Marcus ordered. I obediently go there. He had a cloth piece in his hand. Oh darn, I know this. I've seen it in Karate Kid. He tied it around my eyes.
"How am gonna do this?" I asked nervously. I mean, I know I can rely on my senses but I've never really done this, yeah I know through my 14 years of training [ I didn't have training for 5 years after I was transformed….but I did have it when I wasn't transformed for about…since 13.] through my 14 years of training I haven't done this…ok I have…but that went horribly wrong.
"concentrate." He said waking me from my flash back. "Don't use your power." He reminded. I wish I can do that, when I'm under stress, I don't know when my powers can suddenly pop.
"I hope so too, great shin master" I joked, I chuckled a bit. I was in the middle. I tried to feel the surroundings. I took a breather; I tried to sense where they were. I sensed someone coming to me, Chels, I quickly blocked her attack sending her crashing to the ground, she quickly got up, and we started to fight. Damn. I hate this. I can't see a thing. I can feel her movements I block them. I get hit a couple of times. Until I use my feet for something and she falls, "your good kid." She muttered I smiled. Then I could feel someone moving towards me. Shaun. He's fast, he hits me first, I nearly fall but I quickly stand up, we fight for a while until I pull an unexpected move on him I slid my feet unto his knee's and he falls, after three counts he's out. That's the game. Demetri was next. I've seen him fight. He's good but he's not that good around me. He went my way I hit right in the gut as hard as I can. "C'mon De, hit me with your best shot" I told him. I kind of sang the last words ;)) I was taunting him, I've been trying to get the best out of him these past few weeks.
"With you singing like that?" he said….from the floor.
"Oh c'mon De!!!—" just as I said that a big thug hit me, and sent me right on the floor, right on top of something.
"Don't get distracted." Marcus called. I removed my blindfold.
"If you just wanted to do that, why just have to ask." Demetri said.A smug smile on his face, In his obnoxious ways. Uhgg!
"Jerk!" I yelled at him and stood up. I looked at Amadeus, a big grin in his face, he shrugged. :P!
"Kali, time is up, time to go to Aro. He's out the forest. Jane will take you." Marcus said. I walked miserably off to my room to change. And get some stuff. I went down and there. Jane. Smiling at me, she took my stuff and we went to the garage.
"How was class?" Jane asked, as we walked to the hummer, the white hummer.
"I was a knock down!" I exclaimed as I got in the front seat of the hummer. Jane got in the driver seat.
"You mean knock out?" she said as she started the engine and off we went.
"Nope, Knock Down." I told her. She laughed as she got my point.
"I see" She had a smug smile on. It would only take us about a few minutes to get to the forest. Jane's pretty fast.
"What are we gonna do?" I asked.
"What we usually do." Jane said, she was Aro's assistant every time I had power training, sometimes Renata was there. "Then maybe we could get a bite to eat." She winked at me. She wouldn't drink the blood but go with the chase.
"Jane. You're the best." I said to her. She was the only one who would put up with me and my vegetarian ways.
"Well, you're the only one I could actually talk to without the fear of being carried away and using my abilities. Not even Alec." Jane said. She was serious.
"Aaawwwwwwww!!!!!" I said. On the way we were laughing and saying stories and all that. Until we reached the forest, she lead me to where we were supposed to go, it wasn't that far…for vamps. It was nearly sunset too. Just the right time to practice. And hunt.
Aro was right there alone, meditating. Eyes closed, crossed legs. "Hello Kalista" He greeted.
"Hey. What are we gonna do now?" I asked. He opened his eyes.
"Come and meditate with me. Concentrate." He said as he gestured us to sit with him. We sat. I tried to concentrate. The forest was beautiful. And the spot where we stood was WOW. Tree's surround it. I concentrated. I felt something, sensed. Moving. I felt it getting closer……closer….then I opened my eyes. It was a BIG, scary, hairy, horrifying……monster…..right at my face. I screamed. And with it I sent the monster into the woods. It was terrifying. Jane suddenly was at my side. Aro was horror stricken.
"Are you ok?" Jane asked. She shook me to wake me up.
"What was that?" I managed to spit it out. I stood up, and went to the monster. Jane and Aro was behind me. Aro then touched him. He was more horrified than before.
"Kali, Jane. Get in the car and get out of here." Aro said. He was….ordering me.
"Papa. I need to hunt." I shyly said. He was….scared.
"I'll send a team to hunt for you. Go." He ordered, I stood there "LETS GO!!!"
He yelled. He was angry. I was scared. Jane's instinct, she got me and carried me to the car. Aro was behind us. We got to the hummer. Jane got me at the back. Aro at the front seat and Jane in the driver's seat. I was in shock. The thing kept playing back in my head. Jane was fast, she was really fast with the car. And in about of minutes we were back to the vulturi, the sun was already down, but it wasn't that dark yet. We were swift, I could move again. We reached the dungeons.
"Jane. The group" he said to Jane, by that he meant, the leaders .Jane left eyeing me, apologetic. I looked at Aro, he too had an apologetic look in his eyes. "I'm sorry for yelling at you." He said.
"I'm used to it…..but….but…wh-what was that?!?!" I said, But before I could answer Marcus[can sense relationships], Caius[He can know the history of something with a touch], Sulpicia, Athenadora, Dydime[all three of them can make you happy], Demetri[tracker, good fighter], Amadeus[he can shatter objects without touching them], Shaun[he teleports], Renata[shield], Alec[he can cut the senses off others], Jane[inflict pain through the mind], Racheal[she can heal, others and herself], Chelsea[can change emotional bondings], Winter[she can freeze things], Flame [he can start fire, pyrokenisis] ,Norna [precog(physic) can see everything],Brock[lightning boy, produces lightning], Thyra[ thunder, can produce deafening thunder], Kane[can maniplate animals.] and offcourse Aro[ who can know every single thought in your head with a single touch], , me and my three mothers were just there…I was there because I was a witness…first time there actually.
They reached down, they all surrounded me and Aro. With their "are you ok's?" and "are you hurt?" and……"what happened?". Aro rise his hand and everyone was quiet. They went to the side and a table stood up. A round table with 20 chairs, the other 4 chairs were extra I guess. It felt like the knights of the round table.
"Alec, Jane, Demetri your with Kali." Aro instantly said as everyone settled.
"Why? I don't need gaurds, I'm your secret right? Your secret weapon? Right?!?! Then why don't I guard like you guys." I reasoned. That was what I was? right?
"Your our secret, not our secret weapon." Aro simply corrected, "You guys know what to do?" he turned to Alec, Jane and Demetri.
"What's that suppose to mean? A secret?!? What's the diff!" I asked. I was enraged….why would they keep this from me!
"We should tell her already, it's time." Marcus told Aro, he was approving…to what?!? "we should" Caius said agreeing with Marcus.
"You guys wanna tell me what in the world are you talking about?!?!?!" I was enraged, impatient.
"Calm down. We're gonna tell you ok? Don't be overwhelmed. You are the daughter of one of the kings and queens of the 5 elements" Aro said. No one was surprised. I was the only one who didn't know.
"What?! Are you kidding me?!?! You took me when I was 7. My parents are no king and queen, their all normal." I said. I just told him what I knew, "I mean. That's what I remember…which I didn't tell you…..you didn't tell me whatever it is your hiding." I told him, them.
"We are not kidding. Your parents aren't normal. They are immortal, they are the king and queen, they were the king and queen of the 5th element, sprit." Aro said. I still couldn't believe it.
"Stop lying to me. I need the truth." I told them as sincere as I could say.
"order me" Aro said. I knew what that meant. That was still the time of my training.
"TELL. ME. THE. TRUTH" I said, I've done the truth thing before, it was part of my training along time ago.
"Your mother and your father are the king and queen of the 5th element, spirit. Your uncle went off and killed your parents, he was supposed to kill you but since your father was a good friend of mine, I took you. And your uncle has been ruling the land ever since. The vampires were very close to your mother and father and since your uncle ruled, we have abandoned the land because your uncle is not a very nice man. The thing you saw is one of his. You're a secret to all people. And now that that thing saw you, they shall be seeking your death." Aro said, he was serious.
"Why turn me into vampire then?" I asked. Nicely.
"We tried to see, if we really needed to, you were human for 9 years. We tried, but you were……weak. So we turned you into one of us. Indestructible. At least, more stronger." Marcus said.
"So….what'll happen now?" I asked. I was curious.
"We need to protect you." Aro said.
"Will I like master the four elements or something...I mean 5. How?" I said. I started to think, "I'm like the avatar." I joked. I needed to at least joke because I don't like serious stuff and talking about my death.
"This is not a joke." Caius said, "I'm going to have to educate you on the history of your family, your history, the 5 elements." Great more stuff to study….uhg.
"Ok ok ok... But. Do I have to?" I asked. Addressing Aro. He simply nodded. I hate this. Uhg.
"It's gonna take all of us." Marcus said. "were gonna have to ask trainers from the other side from all 5 elements." He added.
"I'm going to the gym?" I joked again. "Why am I gonna need to know all 4? Don't tell I'm like this prophecy that sheds light to the darkness and all that crappy stuff." I joked again.
"Actually, you're the one who will unite everyone. All the 5 elements. Since the spirit element has gone isolated, everyone is in conflict. The spirit element is supposedly the element was to unite, but since their isolation to the other 4 made the worlds in a bad condition. You need to harness all five elements." Aro said, he was rubbing his temples.
"How come I haven't really seen these abilities? Transform" I asked.
"Well, with these abilities it needs time and training. You need to truly concentrate. And you can, your abilities with these elements, it can be perceived as your abilities now as a vampire." Aro said. Well, it can. Since I'm telekinetic and mind manipulation/control. I could control everything and people. Wow. I never really looked at it that way.
"Aro. Someone's on the phone for you." Penny, one of the door guards said, "some Carlisle." Penny continued.
"Put him on." Aro then said, "Carlisle, I don't want to be rude but why are you calling?" Aro asked. Seemingly there was a speaker somewhere. I started to look around.
"The speaker's that box there." Alec pointed out. Maybe I looked funny. He had a smug smile on his face. He was right across me in the BIG table.
"We need your help" a voice said, it was…I guess Carlisle's.
"Why? What is it?" Aro asked.
"There has been this thing following Nessie around, it seems to be uhmmm….I don't know attracted, not like lover attracted, more like food." Carlisle explained.
"Would you want to describe this thing?" Aro continued. I know this is important but as he described the thing it was as if I already saw it…it was the monster. I looked at Jane who also got what I was getting.
"I know what it is." Aro said, so he went off about the whole kingdom blah blah blah blah …soooo boring…… There was a candle in front of me. Wonder why? I started blowing as if I could reach the flame.
And surprisingly I did. The candle was off. And flame also being bored lit the fire. I blew it off, Flame lit it, I blew it off, he lit it. And the third time I was about to blow it, too hard….it reached across the table to Alec and he blew right to the wall.
"Oh My Gosh, Alec! I am SOOOOO sorry…I didn't mean too." I said, he stood up.
"KALI! You are SO dead." Was the words he said and we started chasing each other like little kids.
"ALEC! I didn't mean it! I SWEAR! Dude! Chill! How are you gonna kill me anyways? You cant, " I asked.
"I have my ways." Alec said. I started to scream, AHHHHHHHHH!!!
"Alec! Kali! Calm Down! SIT!" Marcus ordered. We sat down.
"I have discovered air. 4 more to go!" I said, I was smiling, "maybe flame can teach me fire." I smiled.
"Kali, we still need to get the 5 masters of the 5 elements and teach you." Caius said.
"OH GREAT! When's Aslan coming?!?! Oh!!!!Is the Order of the Phoenix coming too?!?! Or wait…Obi-one? Or-or-or!!! FRODO! Yes he can help us." I sarcastically said. "you know what I have one thing….the W.I.T.C.H. …" I said more sarcastically
"Very funny Kali, but we have to take this seriously." Aro said right after laughing. I could hear Carlisle laughing…and the others? I don't really know the others but then…
"I am the sunshine of your livezzzzz!!!" I started to sing in that tune. Then I laughed, "wait …am I still a secret? Because I don't think I'm much of a secret, to the Olympic coven." I said, I wasn't scared, I don't know why, I was scared but then I don't like showing it, "wait, why are they called Olympic Coven? Are they like Olympic winners or sports dudes. Or something. They're from Olympia?" I honestly asked, I was curious. I heard laughter from all around.
"They're from the Olympic Peninsula." Caius corrected.
"That name reminds of the Bermuda Triangle. So what are they called? Olympiads? Or just Cullens?" I said. But then Olympiads sounded SOOOO much cooler.
"It's really nice that Kali can find laughter in all of this." Carlisle said.
"Yes. Your right. This is a serious manner. You should take it seriously." Aro said, eyeing me. I smiled at him. He was trying to get through me.
"So we go to your house and get rid of the danger." Aro said.
"By we? You mean? All of us including me?" I asked out of the blue. I haven't actually gone out of Europe before, not even Italy.
"You need to train. Don't worry, Jane, Alec and Demetri won't go. Your mothers won't go either. Caius won't come; he'll be teaching you a lot of stuff. Everyone else will be coming." He said, "Some of Cullen's will be coming over, for safety"
"More company! Yay!" I said. "When are they coming?" I asked.
"We're still planning." Aro said. I slouched down to my seat.
"Have you guys seen the new underworld trailer?" I randomly asked.
"Is that the one where the vampire falls in love with the slave were wolf?" Jane asked, trying to enhance the convo.
"and the werewolf's in the cage…going on about how he envied the vampires and being a slave blah blah blah…he goes about revenge, and all war break loose and some triple x scenes." Demetri adds.
"But here, it's all swords and arrows, I mean that's all cool. But in the other episodes there were guns. Marcus, why haven't I handled guns before, I've done swords,chains,sticks and all that stuff….why not guns, it'll look SOOOO cool…be like Celene, battle evil." I said, as I pointed my hand like a gun and said "bang"
"Guns?" Marcus said, more of to himself.
"You wanna be like her???I'm down with that. Jane can buy you tight leather clothes, zipper." Demetri said, he had a smug face on.
"Perv!EW! PAPA! Your sticking me with him! Are you kidding me!?!?!?!" I said to Aro, who was still talking to Carlisle via speaker.
"Kali. Demetri is a great fighter so just stick with it." He said. His voice had a little annoyance to it. I kept quiet. Until.
"I guess you're stuck with me." Demetri said. A big arrogant way of his. I took a big heap of air. Breathed in and out.
"Calm collected, calm collected, calm collected, calm collected" I kept on whispering. I was REALLY annoyed.
"Calm? For what?" Demetri teased, why cant he just be a friend, Gawd! Annoying!
"Calm….collected….oh this is all crap!!!AHHHHHHHH!!!! " I sent him flying off the ground, he falls.
"Strong." Demetri said once more.
"Why don't you just piss off!" I flew to the wall, there he stayed floating. "BACK OFF!!!! This whole thing is stressing me out!" I managed to calm down, I smiled, but he was still pinned to the wall "Please Demetri, if were meant to be….we are…if we're not…were not…ok? Please try to understand. " I said and I let him slide down. The wall.
As I walked to back to the table, I smiled. Everyone was looking, even the phone went quiet. I sat down and said, "That ,my friends is why you don't mess with Clari Kalista Athena Calypso. Go on with your convo." I said.
"Your child is…." Carlisle said.
"Spunky." Aro finished.
"I'm right here. I can hear you; I can bet a human can hear you." I said, "who are these masters of elements you speak of Caius?" I asked Caius changing the topic while Aro and Carlisle continued their conversation.
"They will be training you in the 5 elements—"
"wait wait wait. How are you gonna get the 5th kingdom? I thought that that part's evil…" I said, mocking an evil smile at evil.
"Not all of them are evil. In every evil there is always good." Caius replied. Yoda. Hahaha.
"And in every darkness there is light, you didn't have to throw the last! You know, I never got why in movies we always burn in the sun and….turn to stone? Slash ashes? What did you guys do to set the people the wrong impression?" I turned to the older vampires.
"It is better. That they don't know these stuff." Marcus said.
So we were just like that the whole night while Aro talked to Carlisle. It actually ended in the morning where Jane took me shopping to Milan with Chelsea and Alec and Demetri, who managed to back off, well with the flirting and stuff, he was just my friend. Aro and the others started to look for mentors, for things to learn, they started to learn and all that.
