I own nothing I wish!!!!

Aro POV

"Where is Heidi with today's meal?" I am really starting to get impatient. I would hate to kill Heidi over this but if I am not fed soon, she is dead. "Felix go look for her."

"As you wish Aro."

** 10 minutes later **

"Heidi where have you been and where is the feast?" She has 3 seconds then I am going to kill her myself.

"Aro I don't know what happened. I was in the woods, I knew there was a small group camping, I knew I could get a couple young Americans. I walk up like always and started to talk to them. They were licking it up like always. There was a small fire and sum music coming from their truck. We were all talking one minute and I was about to tell them to come with me when…..nothing. I went blank. When I woke up they were gone and It looked like they left in a hurry. The fire was still burning and they left behind all their equipment." She was on her knees staring at me with the most scared look on her face.

"What do you mean you went blank?" She was looking around for help but none came.

"I'm telling the truth I swear!!! I don't think I fell asleep, since I can't, I think I was put in a trance but I'm sure they were human and there was no one else there. I don't know what happened."

"I am done with this. Give me your hand." Heidi happily gave me her hand. She was telling the truth. Nothing. How can this be? She can feel that no one is around and these people are defiantly human. So what is different? Just then, Jane and Alec walk through the door.

"Aro we may have a problem." Alec looked concerned but Jane looked pissed. Alex walked right up to me and held out his hand.

I heard every thought he ever had. He focused on his thoughts from 15 minutes ago. He and Jane were walking down some back streets. There were people around. Then nothing. They both went totally blank, the exact same thing that happened to Heidi. What is this? Was it happening to all vampires outside of here tonight?

"Has this happened to anyone else? Alec, Jane, Felix and Heidi I want you to go out and spread the word. I want every vampire in Volterra here now. Everyone in the city is to report in. I want everyone lined up that was not in this room 15 minutes ago. NOW." I intend on touching hands with everyone to see who else this has happened to and hopefully figure out why.

In 15 minutes there were 20 vampires outside the door. 10 were from my guard and 10 were visiting. I started with the guards. None had a problem. They were just patrolling around the grounds keeping an eye out. I told each one to go back to their patrol when I was done with them. Then I called in the visitors and their companions. The first two I got nothing important, same with the next two. But, the last couple had blank spots in their thoughts. I asked what happened.

"We had just found something to eat in a parking lot of the movies at the outskirts of the city. A couple was making out in their car. They were in the back of the lot and the parking lot lights were out. The windows were open so it was easy for the both us to slip into the car. We were in the middle of driving the car to dump it then nothing. We woke up in the ditch and that was where we decided to stage an accident and get out there." James the male said. That was exactly what I got from his thoughts too. The same for the female, Victoria. They were wise not to lie to me.

"You may leave, Jane show them out. I want all visitors out of Volturi." Jane nodded and showed James and Victoria out. I need to review everything I heard from Heidi, Alec, Jane, James and Victoria.

I went to my chambers and had them send me up a meal. What did they all have in common? I decided I needed a distraction for a moment. Then I could come back to my thoughts and reassess. Just then, there was a knock at my door. "Enter."

"Aro, this is Katie I told her she could have a tour of the castle and I told her this room had a great view of the city." He looked right at me.

"Yes is does, why don't you go get this young lady a drink and I will show her the view." The guard nodded his head and left. The young woman began to get very nerves; I could hear her heart rate pick up as I walk over to her. I wasted no time and stared drinking her dry. While I was drinking, someone must have decided to play music the main hall. When I was done drinking I went to see who was down there, it was Heidi on the harp and out of nowhere it hit me. Everyone that was put in the trance was listening to the radio. Could that really be the reason for this? I ran through everything I learned in my head. Yes, that was defiantly the only thing all three had in common. Now the question is what they were listening too?

I went to the secretary at the front desk since I was in the main hall anyways. "Laura can you please do me a favor."

She stared at me completely afraid. I can understand, I never talk to her she probably thought I was going to kill her. "Sure sir, what can I do for you?"

"I need you to find out what song was playing when Heidi had her problem. She will fill you in. I want it immediately. Do you understand?"

"Yes sir." Laura ran off after that. One hour later Jane came walking in to the main room looking more pissed then before.

"What troubles you Jane?"

"We found out the girl on the radio at that time is named Marie Trainer but that was all we could find. I'm sure that is her stage name, celebrities never used their real name. We have been looking into it and I have someone trying to track her down by money transactions but it proving to be difficult."

"How hard can it be to find one little human girl?" This girl is starting to become bothersome.

"She has only just released this one song to the radio. She has no cd's out or anything. But the song has been playing nonstop on a lot of stations. I'm sure with a little bit more time we will be able to track her down easily."

"If this is happening to vampires everywhere we may be exposed. This cannot continue. Time is something we do not have much of. I expect this taken care of quickly."

"We will track her down and kill her. I will see to it personally if you allow me sir. I think it might require me to go the states."

"Jane I would greatly appreciate it if you would take care of this. Take a few of the guard with you. I want regular reports."

** One year later** night of the concert

This is the night, finally. I cannot believe we have not been able to track down one little girl. I am curious to know who is protecting this girl. Was it just a human with money and brains or was it something else.

We did a lot of tests this past year. We found out that when a vampire was listening to her sing they went into a trance. I have not found a vampire yet, including myself, who can block her out and that includes my personal shield. You can be brought out of the trace only by touching but if she is still singing then they would go right into the trance unless you kept touching them, kept eye contact and talking to them. If all three are not happening simultaneously them the vampire would go back into the trance.

This was one powerful human if she even is human. I would love to see her as a vampire but I do not think I can risk it. If my shield cannot deflect her now what would happen when that power is enhanced. What I would not give, or who I would not sacrifice, to have her be a part of my guard. Oh well, what is done is done. My guard is on their way to the concert with a plan to take care of this problem.

I sent just about everyone, minus Alec. Alec is able to take out multiple opponents at once with his ability and therefore I thought we would be most valuable here just in case but everyone else went. They have my full consent to take her out permanently. There was no way to block her out so I told them to stay low until she is off stage then kill her.
