And guess what? AJ edits two chapters in one day. Huzzah. Maybe it'll be three; it really depends on how long I take to finish this up. Enjoy:)
[Jacob's POV]
I stiffened. That was definitely the scent of bloodsucker.
I quickly followed the scent to the border. I saw Bella, now a vampire, the Cullens, and a human. I noticed her weird eyes, but I ignored her stare. After all, vamps were weird. Bella was weird. Naturally, she would be extremely weird as a bloodsucker.
I noticed the human, a pretty girl with mahogany hair. She looks kinda like Bella, I thought absentmindedly.
She turned around and looked at me, and when our eyes met, nothing mattered anymore except her.
I had imprinted.
Aw, damn. Love totally sucks.
[End Jacob's POV]
I saw Jacob looking at her in a way that clearly said that she was his whole world. "Imprint," I breathed.
Immediately, Jacob said, "Hey, uh...Katelyn, I have to talk to you." I listened subconsciously as Jacob told her the whole story.
"So you're saying that you've...imprinted...on me?" she asked, her eyes still fixed on Jake. He nodded.
Instinctively, she turned around. "Bella," she began. I waited.
"I choose to forget."
"As you wish," I said. Edward looked at her, clearly shaken by her decision.
"But Katelyn-" he said.
"No buts, Edward," she cut him off. "I choose to forget," she repeated. I nodded once.
"And so you speak, and so you intend, and so let it be done," I pronounced, and I waved my hand. A kind of blue, glowing halo appeared above her head, and she started shrieking in obvious agony.
I closed my eyes and made small complicated movements with my hands over her heart.
I felt a shock of unbearable pain, but I gritted my teeth. Screaming or crying was a blatant disgrace to the Volturi's reputation.
After five minutes of the extreme agony, her eyes clouded over.
Her eyes shut for a while, and then she opened them, looking confused.
"Oh hi, Jake," she said, catching sight of him. "Who are you?" she asked, turning around and facing the Cullens.
Mission Accomplished. I turned and faced Edward. "Give me your hand," I told him. He held his hand out.
I quickly allowed the power to flow through me. "Thanks," I said stiffly.
"I have to go now, Katelyn," I said. "How do you know my name?" she questioned.
"Not important. Farewell, Katelyn, Cullens," I said. Then I quickly walked away to teleport.
As soon as I was out of sight, I took out my cell phone, flipped it open and dialed Aro's number.
"Hello?" he asked.
"Hey Aro. It's Bella."
"Oh! How did it go?" he asked.
"Perfectly fine. She can't remember a thing."
"Good. Now, when are you coming back?"
"Now. I need to discuss something important with you."
"And what is that?"
I hesitated.
"Me leaving,"
"But-"
"We'll discuss this when I get back. See ya later." I snapped the phone shut.
Oh, now I was in for it. I quickly teleported to Volterra. I strolled towards Aro, Marcus and Caius.
"Hi Aro," I greeted. He looked really, really mad.
"Isabella, what do you mean by 'me leaving'?" he asked, quoting me with distaste.
"I want a break from being Volturi Princess, so I'm going to travel around as a nomad, then I'll see if the Denalis will let me join," I told him cheerfully.
"No," he said.
I raised my eyebrows. "Do you really want to fight with me, Aro?" I questioned.
He looked resigned now. "Fine, Isabella," he relented.
I smirked. "Alright. I'm going to pack up now." And I walked away without a backward glance.
[Tanya's POV]
I heard that the mutt imprinted on Katelyn. Oh well – he was bound to do it someday.
Suddenly, I sensed someone else coming, and tensed up. I saw a figure appear in front of me.
It was Isabella Swan. The Volturi Princess. Oh my god.
"Hello, Tanya," she greeted me coolly in her melodious voice.
"Hello, Isabella. What do the Volturi want now?" I inquired.
"I left, and it's Bella," she said darkly.
I gaped openly at her. "You...you left?" I gasped.
She chuckled without humor, and her striking golden eyes met mine.
"Yes. I was wondering if I could..." she hesitated.
"Could what?" I asked curiously.
"Join your coven," she said.
I thought about that. "I'll have to ask my coven," I said at last.
She smiled. "Okay," she agreed.
I ran back to our mansion/house. Irina, Kate, Carmen and Eleazar caught sight of Bella and stared.
"Volturi Princess?" Eleazar gasped.
"Yep, Eleazar," she smirked. "I prefer Bella though," she added.
"What do the Volturi want?" Carmen asked.
Her eyes darkened. "I am no longer part of the Volturi. They want nothing to do with you," she said.
"Then?" Kate asked, skeptical.
"I simply want to join your coven," she said.
"Why?" Irina gasped.
"You are the only other coven that shares my diet except the Olympic coven," she told her.
Carmen smiled gently. "Of course, Bella," she said kindly.
Bella hugged Carmen. "Thank you, Carmen!" she squealed happily.
Carmen laughed. "No problem, Bells," she said. "Now, let's get you registered in Serenade High."
"Sure, Carmen," Bella agreed.
"Uh, HELLO? We are still here, you know?" Kate yelled, grinning.
"Sorry Kate, Tanya, Eleazar, Irina," she apologized.
"It's okay," we chorused, and burst into laughter.
Suddenly, my phone rang.
"Hello? Oh, hi. Visiting? When? Tomorrow? Oh-uh...we have a new coven member, though...No! She's not a newborn! Oh -- okay then...right. Fine. Bye." I shut the phone and looked around grimly. "We're going to have visitors," I said, sending Bella an apologetic look. She smiled weakly, obviously having read my mind.
"Who?" Carmen wondered aloud.
"The Cullens."
