Backstabbed
As I approached the door to Aro's chambers I heard Caius and him in a heated argument, as usual. I wasn't really paying attention (since I had long ago learned how boring their arguments could be to those involved) until I heard Caius say my name.
"I am so tired of that depressed fool Marcus! For over 2,000 years he has done nothing but mope! He doesn't speak unless absolutely necessary so his council is beyond minimal. And what little council he does give is too pacifistic! It's almost like he is turning into that idiot Carlisle! The only thing he is good for is his gift and since he rarely fights his gift is hardly used anyways! "
I heard Aro respond in a persuading and appeasing voice, "but his gift is still valuable. That is why I chose to keep him not her."
Her? Who is he talking about? I wondered although I had a small flickering suspicion. I concentrated harder on the conversation.
"She was your sister," Caius began and I actually felt slightly nauseous "it's too bad her gift was pointless. After all it's hard to instill fear while making someone happy." He spat the last word in disgust.
"Too true" Aro agreed solemnly. "That's why I killed her not him." My body felt as cold as it actually was at those words and I quickly turned around and headed toward my chambers as silently as I could.
The last thing I heard before I got out of earshot was Caius say "I can't believe how dense he is to have not figured in over 2,000 years!"
I knew what I needed to do and I needed to do it quickly: escape.
Yes I know this is a short chapter too I am really sorry!
