Sorry I didn't actually make this clear!

Claire's power is two-parted: she can turn a vampire's power against itself and she can penetrate mind-shields

Claire's POV

I awoke to a familiar face; Demetri. The main thing I was sure of was that he was my birth brother; from the same family as me. I know that Aro isn't really my father, but he did create me, so I just called him dad or father, or anything like that.

"Hey, you okay?" Demetri said softly.

I nodded, "What happened?"

He sighed, "There was a little...incident last night."

Renesmee's POV

Everyone was in the living room, discussing something when Jake suddenly came back with his friends.

"You don't have to worry about that little vampire problem anymore," he said as he relaxed, "we took care of it."

"Who exactly did you hunt, Jacob?" my adoptive-grandfather, Carlisle said.

Jake shrugged, "Don't know. We just followed her scent to some far away place. Like, really far away place. Then we, you know-"

"Killed her?"

He nodded as his friend Embry sighed contently, "What happened to Embry?" my mom asked.

Jake turned to look at him, "Don't know. He's been like this since we left."

I looked at him and saw his eyes were different this time. I walked over to him silently while all of the vampires watched, even Alistair.

I placed my hand on his cheek and looked at his memory from the past hour and saw Claire. My eyes widened, "Renesmee?" my adoptive-grandmother, Esme called my name.

I gave him the visions of Claire from last night, and when she was in the tree the day before. He smiled, "How do you know her?" he asked.

"She visits me," I said softly, "she's my friend."

"Who's your friend?" Mom asked.

I looked at her, "Claire."

"Who's Claire?" Jake asked. He looked Embry in the eyes, "Dude, did you imprint on someone?"

"I think so," Embry said as he stood up, "I have to see her-"

"Wait," Carlisle said sternly, "you imprinted while trying to find a vampire?"

"Yeah? So?"

Esme and Carlisle looked at each other, "Where did you go exactly?"

Embry shrugged, "I don't know."

"What was she wearing?"

Embry started thinking, "Black dress, black belt with chains, black choker, black and red cape-"

"Can you describe her?" Dad asked. Embry smiled.

"Gorgeous brown locks, around Bella's height, maybe a little taller. Beautiful dark eyes that just make you lose focus. And her skin, it was pale and fragile like china."

Mom looked at him, "Embry, I think you imprinted on a vampire."

"The question is, Bella," Carlisle said seriously, "Who is she?"

Demetri escorted me down the staircase to the main room, greeted by my "father", Marcus, and Caius.

"Have a pleasant rest, Claire?" he asked as he sipped his blood from a golden cup.

I nodded as one of the human slaves held out a silver platter with another cup on it. I took it gracefully, "You're excused." She nodded eagerly and scurried to the exit.

I sipped it as I sat down in my place, in between Caius and my father, "Wait!" She froze in place, "Come here."

She approached me, obviously scared, "Yes, your Majesty?"

I smirked at the nickname, "What is this?" I pointed to the contents of the cup.

"B-Blood."

I nodded, "But all of the service knows that I like it fresh. Please, be a dear and get me a new one." I placed the cup on her tray with distaste and she left immediately.

"Felix," he looked up at me, "help her." He nodded in understanding as he followed her the same way out.

"You seem to be doing well," Marcus said as he looked at me with a glance, "Quite a wake-up call." I know he was referring to the servant.

There was a loud scream that echoed through the building and I smirked.

"Yes," the new cup-bearer came in with fright, a new cup in hand, Felix behind her, "quite the wake-up call indeed."

Jane came through the doors with someone behind her, "Irina, what a lovely surprise," my father said as I shooed the servant away with my hand.

Felix came back in and took his place by the door with Demetri while Alec stood on the other side of Caius and Jane stayed on the other side of Marcus.

"I only came by for a brief moment to discuss the Cullens," she said quietly.

"Please speak up," Caius said exaggeratedly, "I can't understand your mumbling."

"The Cullens," Irina said, stronger, "they are gathering other clans as witnesses."

My father sighed as I offered my cup to Caius, he seemed to be distraught over something. He shook his head and frowned. I narrowed my eyes and pushed my cup further. Caius finally gave in and took the cup.

I let him drink it as Father spoke, "Well, that's quite shocking."

"What is, father?" I asked him suspiciously.

He waved his hand dismissively, "I shall tell you soon, my child."

Irina and my father continued to speak, but I payed my attention to only Caius. He's acting strange, more than usual.

I think it has something to do with the werewolf attack, "You are dismissed," Irina left with Jane and Demetri behind her to see her out.

My father and Marcus went else where while Caius just sat in his chair, still nothing but an empty void in his eyes. "Can you all leave the room for a moment?"

Everyone cleared the room as I stood up and faced him, "Caius?"

He looked up at me sadly, "Yes?"

"Are you feeling okay?"

He sighed, "Peachy."

"Liar," I took his hand and pulled him up, "we're going outside. You need fresher air than this."

I dragged him to the door and wrapped a cloak around his shoulders, securing it, "Aren't you grounded?"

"He said I could go out if I had someone with me," I put on my own Volturi cloak, "you're someone."

Carlisle went into his study and brought back an old looking book. I looked at him confusedly, "What's that?" Mom asked.

"It's a book of covens. Embry, Renesmee, I need you two to show me which one of these vampires you saw," he said as he placed the book on the table.

Embry picked it up and I sat next to him on the couch. We flipped throughout the book until we got close to the end, "This is impossible," Dad said in frustration.

"It's like she's a ghost or something," Mom said.

We went to a section labeled 'Volturi' and Carlisle took the book back, "No, she can't be," he said, "there is no one in Volturi that matches your description."

"What if it was someone new?" Dad said as he stood up. "The Volturi always make new recruits."

Carlisle thought about it for a moment before handing it back to me, "Did she tell you anything about herself, Renesmee?"

I nodded as I moved all of the pages to the left, revealing the pictures and names I needed, "She said Aro and Sulpicia were her parents."

I could feel everyone stop moving except for the werewolves, "A-Aro?" Dad stuttered, "Are you sure?"

I nodded as I showed them the line going to the picture of Claire, "She's their daughter."

Carlisle swallowed as he turned to Jacob, "You attacked the Volturi?"

He shrugged, "What's the Volturi?"

"An elite group of 32 vampires that keeps the order of our kind," Aunt Rosalie said spitefully, "If you don't follow their rules, you get executed. Aro is the main leader."

I looked at Jacob, "She was the one that you smelled. Remember? She said 'Be careful with every act you do, for it may be your last'."

Jake's eyes widened, "You mean...she's alive?"

I nodded, "Embry imprinted her."

I noticed Jake swallow, "Jake?" Mom asked, "Who did you kill?"

"Some woman, I thought it was her-"

Carlisle took the book back as all of the vampires in the room looked at him, "You killed a member of the Volturi. Now, they have all the more reason to come after us."

Dad stood up, "That's true Carlisle, but who did they kill?"
