Rescue Me From The Dark

CHAPTER - 2

Alec stood in the doorway with a grin on his face, his hand holding a cup of blood. He looked at his sister's closed eyes and Rennesme was sheltered near her. He knew it was only about time before his sister would take pity on Rennesme and start liking her. Contrary to popular belief, his sister did have a heart but she was just too much stubborn to accept.

Jane opened her eyes after awhile and looked at her brother standing in the doorway with a cheeky grin on his face. She sat up abruptly and Rennesme was awake in an instant. "What are you smiling at?" Jane asked with a look of irritation in her musical voice.

"Nothing" Alec said as he sauntered forward holding out the cup for Jane to take. She got up and off the bed and rushed to take the bottle out of Alec's hand a little forcefully and looked towards the bed where little Rennesme sat looking at the two of them with curious eyes.

Alec as usual went forward and Rennesme held out her hands for him to pick her up, which he did with grace. Rennesme's giggles erupted in the room and she smiled and said "Hello Alec"

"Good Morning Rennesme, was Jane being a bad girl to you?" Alec asked knowing it would irritate his sister. Jane glared at his brother and Rennesme, how dare he?

"No, she gave me Sleeping Beauty to read yesterday" Rennesme said touching Alec's cheek showing him flashes of the previous day with Jane. Alec was as always filled with wonder as he saw Rennesme daring to ask his sister anything at all. She sure was a brave one and she was only three months old.

"You wouldn't mind feeding her, would you?" Jane asked as she held out the bottle for Alec to take. Alec shook his head, he wasn't allowed to do that for God knows what reason by Aro.

"You know Aro's orders" he remined Jane and she sighed and came forward. She stretched her hands and Alec was surprised because she would usually just give Rennesme the cup and make her sit on the bed. Alec easily slid Rennesme into Jane's arms and she slowly went to her couch at a human pace and sat down with Rennesme in her lap. She held the cup to her lips and Rennesme tilted her head to lean against Jane's chest and started drinking from the cup. She saw Alec's look of surprise and glared at him but he didn't drop it so she decided she might as well explain.

"Well, I've decided that even though her mother was a pain" Jane said and Rennesme sturred a little but kept drinking anyway "she is not responsible for her mother's gifts and neither did she choose to be a half-breed, so I think I can take pity on her for awhile" she finished looking firm and stubborn.

But Alec who knew Jane better than anyone started laughing. Jane glared at Alec and Alec quieted down chuckling a little while he said "Whatever you say Jane, whatever you say"

"Why would he be so kind to her?" Edward asked seeing Alice's vision of his daughter, Jane and Alec in the Volturi high tower. As far as he knew Alec was a monster at heart so why did he behave well to his daughter. It wasn't Aro's orders to make his daughters stay in the castle enjoyable. He merely wanted Jane to feed Rennesme so that he could learn her. Rennesme was a little toy who had sparked Aro's curiosity, that was all.

"Because he is not as bad as we assumed he would be" Alice suggested, even she was quite confused with Alec's behaviour and even more so by Jane's when she decided to take Rennesme into her arms to feed her. Poor Rennesme was always alone in her bed when Jane would thrust the cup into her little hands. However, she had to congratulate her neice for being so brave to ask Jane anything at all.

Edward snorted at her suggestion as he started to pace his room. For once in his life, he felt absolutely helpless. Not even when he was away from Bella did he feel such fear and dread. Fear for Rennesme's life, her happiness and her freedom. She had already lost her mother and Jacob, the two most important people in her life. He was quite glad that Alec was being so kind to her. He was devasted to see his little Rennesme all alone, crying to herself at the loss of her mother and Jacob when she was initially taken into the castle and neither Alec nor Jane attempted to comfort her. As he remembered it was by accident that Alec came to pity Rennesme, when she touched his cheek once letting him know God knows what and then he was always talking or playing with her after that. After days, it only got better because he would see Alice's vision of them playing together and Jane looking murderous, but with Alec around, she couldn't really do anything.

Alice discovered that she was not able to see Rennesme only because Jacob had imprinted on her. Now that Jacob was dead it wasn't hard to look at Rennesme even though it was a little blurry.

"I've booked the tickets to Italy for me, Edward, Alice and Esme" said Carlisle walking into the house from his work. And of course since they were all vampires everyone heard him clearly.

"Alice, have you got anything?" Carlisle asked looking at her. Everyone turned to look at her and she shook her head. She had her suspicions about what Aro would want but she didn't want to give her family false hope.

As usual the vampires retreated to do what they did everyday. Rosalie sulking on the couch thinking about her neice, Emmett back to playing video games, Jasper accompanying Emmett, Carlisle entering his study, Esme decorating the household and Alice heading out to shop. Everyone was back to normal, except Edward because he was the one who had lost too much. He couldn't go back to being normal, not now, not ever.

Jane was yet again assaulted by a flash of memory as little Rennesme touched her cheeks. This was of her father and Jane had to grudgingly agree that he was a very beautiful vampire. He was angry as she saw the exchange between him and another tall and well built male. She didn't need someone to tell her to know what the other man was, a shapeshifter. The girls father shouted "How dare you Jacob, I swear if I don't kill you now, Bella will"

"It's not my fault, I can't help it" Jacob said looking frightened of Edward for the first time.

"You imprinted on my baby, my little daughter and you expect me to accept it's not your fault" Edward roared, coming closer to Jacob with each step and it ended right there as Jane looked down at Rennesme sitting in her lap, shocked.

"The werewofl imprinted on her" Jane said looking up to see Alec's not so surprised face.

"I know" he said frowning. "This little one" he said pointing a finger at Rennesme "has been trying to ask me what imprinting was and I have been keeping her at bay for so long singing her a lullaby everytime she attempts to ask it"

That was it, Jane couldn't take it, she started laughing loudly thinking about her brother, Alec of the mighty Volturi, possessor of one of the best offensive power in the vampire world, feared by everyone of their kind as a heartless bastard singing lullaby to a little child and to keep from telling her what imprinting was no less. Suddenly she seemed to like Rennesme more. Oh, she would hold this against Alec for a very,very,very long time.

"Shut up Jane, she really likes the lullaby, you know......."

This only made Jane laugh harder and she chuckled looking at Rennesme sitting on the floor looking between her and Alec with a confused look. "Now, Rennesme, show me what else you make my brother do...." she said picking her up and Rennesme smiled brightly and reached for her cheek.

"You little traitor, don't you do that to me" Alec said and Jane just about pushed him out of the door before Rennesme started to show her what she and Alec did when Jane was out of the high tower feeding.

After an hour Jane was laughing with mirth, Rennesme had just shown her enough to haunt Alec forever. "Oh, I like you now, it is a pity I didn't get to watch you manipulating my brother to do things for you, and he never seems to have a heart to refuse, even when you asked him to take you out of the high tower and asked him to eat human food" Jane wrinkled her nose at the tought of human food and little Rennesme clapped her hands and giggled. "Although, I would ask you to not persuade him to be out of the high tower, Aro would be dissapointed" she said with a firm look and a serious voice to Rennesme who looked panicked.

Rennesme instantly reached for Jane's cheek asking her if Alec was in trouble and Jane shook her head indicating 'no'. It was a mystery to her as to how this girl could care for her brother so much in such a short span of time they got to know each other. Just then Rennesme yawned taking her little hand to her mouth to stifle her yawn and Jane couldn't help but be fascinated by the sight.

"Are you sleepy?"

"Yes, will you carry me to my bed" she asked with huge eyes and her arms outstretched. She stuck out her bottom lip making finishing the look she was hoping to acheive. Jane chuckled at Rennesme before picking her up with ease from the floor.

"I am right, you are a manipulating little vixen"

Rennesme giggled and rolled over the bed before finally closing her eyes to sleep. Jane sighed and sat on the bed before taking a boof from the shelf and leafing through it. Alec ate human food for the little girl sleeping next to her. She couldn't believe it.

So, how was it?
