Song: Sweet Sour - Band of Skulls

"You have to move!" I snarled at the pathetic excuse of a vampire standing before me.

"Bella?" He blinked, trying to focus on me. "You're here" he gasped I'm relief and I fought the urge to roll my eyes as he grew all touchy feely. "You're alive"

Actually I was dead...

"Move Edward" I repeated and

"I know you're angry but I just couldn't live in a world where you didn't exist" he exclaimed, holding my hands to his nonexistent heart.

That wasn't romantic - that was downright stupid.

"But...everything you said"

"I lied" he squeezed his eyes shut tight. "I had to lie and you believe me so easily" he stared at me with adoration as he claimed. "Bella, you're everything to me" he stated, pulling me closer. "Everything" he repeated in a broken whisper.

"Aw Edward" I reached up to cup his cheek and smiled when his lips quirked up. Before he knew it, my palm had hit his cheek so hard that his head snapped to the side.

His eyes were no wide with shock, surprise and fear.

Excellent.

He was about to question me but we were interrupted with whispered footsteps approaching us.

We turned to look at the two Cold Ones approaching us.

Felix and Demetri.

The two I knew too well.

"Aro wants to speak with you" Felix announced, dropping his cloak and locking his hands behind his back.

Edward had the nerve to push me behind his form and glare at them. "Bella, why don't you go enjoy the rest of the festival?" he hissed.

"Isabella comes with us" Demetri insisted.

"Come on, guys" Alice decided to join us with her usual grin, "It's a festival" she pouted and opened the door widely. "We wouldn't want to make a scene"

"No" Demetri clenched his jaw, "We wouldn't

"Enough!" Jane called out and the two Cullen siblings lost whatever confidence they had. Her red eyes flittered towards mine and a faint smile appeared but she quickly erased it. "Come" she ordered and whirled around.

Edward wrapped his arm around my waist but I dodged his touch. He frowned but I ignored him and Alice.

I was perfectly capable of keeping up with a bunch of Cold Ones.

We approached one of the hollow entrances that led down to an ne'er ground passage towards the main castle entrance.

Edward moved towards me, "I'll go down and catch you" he murmured.

I mentally grinned at Jane, Felix and Demetri knowing smirks. I then plastered on a falsified smile at Edward before jumping down the hole and landing with ease.

"BELLA?!" he and Alice screamed before both jumping down after me. When he found me by the wall with my legs still working. "H-Wh-How?" he spluttered.

"How did you-"

"Hurry" Jane ordered, disrupting Alice's question.

Instead of indulging on the shock splayed on their features, I followed after Jane and happily skipped down the dark hallway and towards the opening where the reception was.

"Good afterno-"

"It's all good Gianna" I cut her off and she smiled, falling back onto her seat. "It's been two years" I murmured to Jane.

She paused and craned her head towards me, "Mmmhmm?"

"She's still alive?" I hitched an eyebrow.

Jane shrugged but still smirked, "She's efficient" she replied with a gleam in her blood-hungry eyes.

"No mistakes?"

"Yet"

We both smiled at that but before I could say something else, a cold hand gripped my arm and yanked me away from her. "Bella" he hissed, "What is wrong with you?"

I ripped it away from him and walked towards the large doors that were now parting to reveal the throne room.

"Isabella..." Aro's Italian voice seeped into his welcome. "il mio piccolo..." (My little one) he droned and I mentally winced. I hated that nickname that he had for me because it was demeaning and I just hated it. "How nice it is to see you again" he smiled widely.

"Hey Aro" I gave a half-assed wave and a passive nod to the other 'kings' behind him.

"Bella, what is going on?" Edward grew more desperate and confused and I found it almost amusing.

Aro stepped forwards and placed a hand to my shoulder, "You are acquainted with the Cullen boy?" he gestured between the two of us.

"You could say that" I shrugged.

"Bella, what is wrong with you?" He repeated and all I could think off was throwing him through the pretty stain glass windows.

The human act was probably my dumbest idea ever. Regardless it had been fun for a while and Edward was cool at times but now - now I see him for the controlling and self-absorbed jackass that he was.

Furthermore, I missed the hunt.

Anyway, good things come to those who wait.

"Aro, I came here because I want someone found" I smiled inwardly.

Without hesitation, he inclined his head towards me and asked, "Who?"

"Woman. Red head. Goes by the name Victoria" I informed him off the woman that had really pissed me off. "She's a cold one" I added, wanting him to know that I already knew it was a conflict of interest.

This only made him hesitant, "Reason?"

"Are you questioning me?" I hitched an eyebrow and tried not to smile at his annoyance.

He shook his head with a small smile, "Consider it done"

"Better" I smiled and then spun around, only to see that Edward and Alice were standing dumbstruck and in awe.

As boring as the human experiment was, it did help in teaching me one thing and that was that I, Isabella was not a human, not did I want to be - well not really. Anyway, there was no use in dwelling in what I had lost but it was time to go back - reclaim my title.

With a smirk in their direction, I began to walk toward the exit only to have myself yanked back one again.

Several hisses and gasps were sounded across the room, before it was overtaken with a deadened silence.

"You're not leaving me without a real explanation"

"That's very hypocritical of you" I mused and gritted my teeth, mentally counting down from ten but lost it when I felt his grip tighten. "I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and give you three seconds to remove your hand" I gave him a clear warning, in front of witnesses.

"Bella" he began, obviously not getting it through his thick skull that I was not interested.

"One"

"I deserve an explanati-"

"Two"

"You won't hurt me"

I laughed manically before reaching down and twisting his arm before throwing him to the far wall. The marbles shook and the pillars cracked as his body collided with the hard surface.

I turned to Aro and sent an apologetic smile, "I will send a cheque to compensate the damage"

I was about to turn and leave but froze when I heard him.

"Didn't think I would be disturbing" an all too familiar voice grew louder as slow casual footsteps began to approach us but suddenly stopped, "Isabella?" he called out.

I groaned.

"Oh fuck"

A/N: love for the Bad side of bella? Who could that be? Just remember I'm always full of surprises.
