Important AN: Bella can sleep if she wants to but doesn't need to. And she can hide her wings. They can sprout out of her body or go in to hide it Her tops are usually backless to let the wings sprout out from her upper back , then they fold out and go down to mid-thigh. I will be posting a pic of the wings in a while
Bella POV
Oh great! (Sarcasm). Dad said I have been sulking way too much! I have not… or maybe I have. Anyways now I have to meet him in the family room.
As I entered the room I saw Charlie on the dark red couch. I sat on the couch on the opposite side of him.
"Hello Bella, how do you do?" I sighed as he said this. I knew he was going to beat around the bush before telling me whatever it is.
"Just tell whatever bad news it is now."
"Wait
for Renee to arrive first" Oh no. If mother is coming, then the
news is bad!
Just a second later, I saw the door open and entered
Renee.
"Bella" she said acknowledging me in her cheerful voice.
I sighed again. "Really, you all just cut to the chase and tell what it is."
"Well…" Charlie began, "Renee and I have been noticing your despondent attitude for a while now-"he was about to say more but impatient mom just cut him off.
"You are going to Earth!" Mom squealed
"Do I have a choice in this?" I asked dryly
"Nope" Renee said popping the 'p'
"You are basically being exiled there till you stop sulking so much and it will be a learning experience."
"Learning experience?" I questioned
"Yes, we believe that you should learn how life is on Earth. How to survive on your own and all. Also I want you to observe Vampires on Earth; see if the Volturi are handling everything properly. Plus it has been a while since you hunted" Charlie said with a slight smile in his voice.
Great, now the Devil's telling me what to do.
"So you mean that I am on my own?"
"No, you are sort of staying with the Volturi." mother stated keeping the happy façade.
Later that night
I was sitting on my bed. It was silky black with a very dark transparent red canopy.
I just stared up at the ceiling with a dazed expression, thinking of everything I know so far.
One, I was exiled to Earth. I am going to stay at Volterra. I will join the Volturi without them knowing who I am. I will say that I am Half Vampire and Half Human so that they aren't suspicious because after all I have blood in my body. My name will be Isabella Marie Swan. Pure joy! (More sarcasm)
The second thing I knew was that Leah was permitted to stay/live with Seth and still continue her duties as Grim Reaper still. She was ecstatic to say the least.
I on the other hand was not.
I decided to sing to calm my nerves.
I
linger in the doorway
Of alarm clock screaming
Monsters calling
my name
Let me stay
Where the wind will whisper to me
Where
the raindrops
As they're falling tell a story
In my field
of paper flowers
And candy clouds of lullaby
I lie inside
myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me
Don't
say I'm out of touch
With this rampant chaos your reality
I
know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge
The nightmare I
built my own world to escape
In my field of paper flowers
And
candy clouds of lullaby
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch
my purple sky fly over me
Swallowed up in the sound of my
screaming
Cannot cease for the fear of silent nights
Oh how I
long for the deep sleep dreaming
The goddess of imaginary
light
In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds of
lullaby
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky
fly over me
I leave in a week. So I packed everything I needed and decided some sleep would comfort me.
The Day (September 19 Saturday.)
I
was saying my last goodbyes to Mother and Father before I transported
outside of Volterra.
"Bye Mother. Goodbye Father."
Renee had tears flowing down her face "I'll miss you Bells"
"Bye" My father said with and emotionless face.
The
next thing I knew, I was squished into a hug by Leah, Vera, Jillian,
Amy, and Drew.
"We'll miss you Angel" Drew was like a
brother to me.
"You better bring me a whole years worth of clothing from Earth, Missy" Vera said through her tears.
"Bye Bella." Jillian said timidly.
"Have fun Izzy." Amy was the only one who called me that. As always she was enthusiastic.
I first had to Teleport Leah to La Push Before taking off to Volterra.
"Ready?" I asked Leah after I hide my wings inside me.
She gave a curt nod. I frowned noticing something was wrong.
I teleported me and Leah to First Beach, La Push. There I asked her "What's wrong Leah?"
"Bella what if no one wants me to be back at La Push. What if they hate me? What If-"
I quickly cut her off and said "Relax Leah, everything's going to be fine. And did you even hear how excited Seth was when you told him you were coming back! I mean he was euphoric. So stop being absurd and go"
"Thanks Bella, but I just can't help but feel nervous. Oh my God, I can't do this. I couldn't, wouldn't, shouldn't. –"
I cut her off again "Do you want me to come with you?"
"Yes please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
She practically screamed at me. I had never seen Leah like this before. And it frightened me.
We walked to her house. Once we reached the doorway, Leah took a deep breath. She made herself relax then rang the door bell.
Right away the door was answered by Seth. And shit, he was tall.
"Leah!" I think my eardrums popped. "And Bells!"
Yeah, Seth and the rest of the Pack knew me. That was because Leah brought me once to La Push. They weren't experts on keeping secrets so they might be responsible for many rumors of my existence. Another person who knew about me was James. I felt my whole body tense up. He was Sage's friend. A living Vampire. I used to teleport me and Sage to James without father knowing. Another way I got used. Back then I never understood why they were friends. I mean James was an arrogant and sadistic vampire. Whenever we snuck out to see James I always felt this rush of adrenaline for doing something risky. It was risky because if we were caught, we were in for hell.
Seth led us to the dark living room. He turned the lights on and out jumped many people yelling "Surprise!"
There was the whole pack and Leah's mother. Leah smiled a genuine smile this time.
There was a cake. I couldn't eat cake, well actually I could and did but I have no digestive system so I would have to throw it up later. Human food does smell pretty good I have to say.
"Eating Cake?" I heard a familiar voice say behind me.
I spun around and screamed "JAKE! Oh my god! I can't believe you are here!"
He snorted and said "Really how blond are you Bella. I mean seriously, the whole pack is here, and I am part of the pack so I would be here too."
"Sorry, sorry, my mistake."
"You mean misconception. If you were surprised to find me at a party with the pack then that means at some level your mind was under the notion that I wasn't part of the pack" I looked at him confused.
"Seriously, Jake, why do you always find a way to put down a person" A feminine voice said behind me.
I turned around again. "Nessie!"
"It's actually Nez now because she thinks Nessie doesn't sound cool" Jake said as he put his arm around Renesme's waist.
"Nessie reminds me of The Loch Ness Monster"
"Like Nez makes it sound any better"
I silently left the couple as they were bickering. I walked to Leah
"Leah, I said quietly"
"She looked up at me from the settee "Yeah"
"I have to go now"
She frowned. Leah got up off the coach "Good luck" she whispered before letting me go.
I exited the house silently. I transported myself out side of Volterra. I ran to the nearest solitary woods and threw up the cake so I wouldn't have to do it later. And I put on red contacts. Even though being half-human half-vampire means my eyes could be any color, I still had to have red contacts so that it wouldn't be suspicious as to how my brown eyes turn red when I'm angry. I had boots on so I changed my rose to a dagger and placed in my boot.
I ran to Volterra. Once gaining entrance to the city, I weaved my way to the Volturi castle.
I walked to the reception area. I saw a human. So they keep humans here. I shook my head in disapproval. Father will not like this.
"Excuse me Miss, I would like to see Aro."
"State your business"
"I am here for a job, as part of the guard. I have an appointment scheduled under Isabella Marie Swan"
She studied me before picking up the phone. She pressed nine. I could hear what was being said next.
"What!" said a male voice. He didn't sound at all pleased to be interrupted.
"S-S-Sir, Miss Swan is here"
"I'll send Alec to fetch her so tell her to wait"
"Yes sir."
Before the lady even put the phone down I seated myself at one of the chairs provided.
Less than a minute later, someone came up to me. He had brown hair and red eyes.
"Alec." I stated
He just nodded his head and said "Follow me"
We ran to the throne room. A girl with the same shade of brown hair as Alec opened the door. They must be the twins Alec and Jane. Yeah, I did my research before coming.
I soon stood in front of Three Thrones. Aro in the middle, Caius on his right, and Markus on his left. The only thing separating us were five steps
"Enlighten me about yourself child." Aro said
Father told me what to say next.
I dream in darkness
I sleep to die
Erase the silence
Erase my life
Our burning ashes
Blacked the day
A world of nothingness
Blow me away
I don't know the meaning of the poem, but what I do know is that Aro looks impressed, Caius was a little shocked, and Marcus had a small smile on his face.
"So I hear you are a shield?" Aro asks.
"Yes, a mental shield."
"Jane." Aro stated while still looking at me. I held eye contact with Aro, and from the corner of my eye, I saw her grin. After a couple moments her grin faltered and she glared and me with deep concentration.
"That will be enough Jane. Alec, your turn"
Alec had and emotionless face. I could see this small mist coming towards me. It came as close as a centimeter away from me, but it couldn't go further. I smiled.
"Dose this prove how strong my mental shield is sir?" I said to Aro.
"Come
here first child."
I walked up the five steps to him.
"Give me your hand"
I did so.
He looked like he was concentrating but not hard like Jane.
"Hmmm" was all he said. Then I had to do more tests.
Jane and Alec had to try to penetrate my shield while Aro tried to read me. The same thing was done again with me putting a couple people under my shield. All of this was done repeatedly until Jane and Alec were mentally tired. I wasn't tired at all.
"Very strong for a Half-Vampire. Child, I will come to a decision by tomorrow"
Sorry for the wait and thank you for the Reviews
