Chapter seven: Honor and Glory: Final Chapter of BOOK 1
"Questa cagna sta per ottenere la sua testa mozzata dalla mia lancia!" I cried out in pure ravenous anger. I'm guessing Collin knew this was not the best time to be around me seeing as he ran. "I don't want to know what it means!" Collin cried out. Oh; neither do you, my dear reader. You do not. "Quella cagna moriranno!" I shouted out. I pulled on my nearest pair of jeans and then my boots before heading out. I hoped Alice didn't mind the time; hell, she didn't sleep! Why the fuck would she mind the time? I rushed out. And I ran to the Cullen house.
Alice answered the door before I even knocked and ushered me up the stairs. "Do you want me to come with you?" Alice asked energetically. Some of the family was gathering. "No, no, no; I am so going alone." I growled as I sat down willingly into Alice's chair of death. This is when you know it's bad. "I understand and we'll be behind you the whole way." Alice said, nodding encouragingly. I was fuming and some people knew to back off. Like Edward. "You don't want to enter that room." I heard him say to a blond guy. "Oh, that's Jasper; he's my husband." Alice said but she wasn't really paying attention to that. Instead she was curling my hair. "I hope this doesn't get ruined on the plane." She squeaked nervously.
"Quella cagna moriranno," I growled. Edward flinched along with every other bilingual Cullen, which is every Cullen.
I had rerouted the spear to the hotel and I picked it up first thing when I got there. "Lei è vestita," Ramon said when I arrived (you're all dressed up). "Ho intenzione di uccidere un vampiro." I growled angrily (I'm going to kill a vampire). "Buona fortuna," Ramon said before I left (good luck). I was going to need it. But man; I had anger on my side. I was fuming and boiling over the top. The Cullens were already at the Volterra castle, warning the Volturi to stay away. I clutched my spear tight to me as I approached the castle. I didn't take the vampire's passageway that I'd been told about. No, I just barged right in through their front doors.
The large double-doors slammed behind me as I stood in front of the crowd of vampires. "Lontano da qui!" I hissed at the crowd (away from here). What else was I going to say to split a crowd? I'm not Noah and this wasn't the Red Sea! "Now!" I shouted in English. Now you know I'm pissed when I speak in English. I stomped through the crowd (that had thankfully parted). I don't know what led me to it but somehow I ended up in front of the very double doors that had appeared in my dream. And the same room was behind it, no doubt. I kicked open the doors, not wanting to let go of my spear in my fury. But instead of Heidi being the only one, there were others. There were three red-eyed vampires in the thrones staring back at me. Two of them looked bored while the one in the middle looked amused. My head and my eyes both shot to where Heidi had come out of the shadows in my dream. "You dead, Heidi," I growled.
There was a sickly sweet giggle as Heidi stepped out of the shadows. I heard the very muffled sounds of… "Claire," I breathed. Heidi was in front of me in an instant. "Did you blindfold her?" I growled. "Of course; she's too young to watch or hear her own death." Heidi said, feigning horror. I smirked. "You only made it easier," I snarled at her. And just like in my dream, I took the first swipe. But this time; I didn't wake up. I swung my spear at Heidi but she quickly dodged. Didn't matter; diamond was the toughest material in the world. No vampire can withstand it no matter how marble hard they are. Much less marble can.
I stabbed my spear into the ground and used the momentum to swing myself and kick her in the face. Sure; my foot hurt a bit afterwards but that quick momentum had allowed me minimum damage due to the element of surprise. And they say you don't learn from ninja movies. I chuckled to myself as I heard the deafening crash of her marble skin against the wall of the throne room. I ripped my spear from the marble of the floor, leaving a healthy sized hole in the marble.
"Marvelous," I heard the vampire in the center throne breathe. "Simply," I agreed as I stood tall. I knew where she was; she wasn't in front of me, nor was in back of me nor either of the sides. I brought my spear back and swung it overhead right on time to catch her own little ninja stunt. I glared at Heidi. "Ooh, she's winning!" I heard Alice's voice cry out. That distracted me. "Alice," I heard Edward hiss as Heidi got a swipe. I went flying through the air and sure enough my spine nearly snapped in two against the wall that was crushed behind me. I climbed out of my own human-sized ditch and ran straight at her. Again she dodged but I couldn't help myself. I kicked off the throne nearest of me regardless of the vampire and jumped right over her.
My back was going to kill me for days after this seeing as I somersaulted away from Heidi. I swiped back but she grabbed my spear. Didn't matter. I pulled the spear over my head so I was in between her and my spear. I knew what was to happen. I brought both my feet up and kicked her away right as I pulled the spear apart. Alice let out a happy clap and I finally found out she was at the wall opposite of where I'd landed. "Alice, please don't distract me," I said as I clasped the two parts back together and let them slightly expand. I loved my spear.
"Can I try it out sometime?" Alice asked eagerly. "Maybe when you're older," I joked as I rushed forward. Heidi and I collided together. "Quil!" A familiar little voice cried out. I turned to find the whole Pack standing at the door. "Wolves? This might add a twist," The vampire in the center throne chuckled excitedly. "That's Aro," Edward said. Heidi gripped onto my wrists as I was thrown over her head. I used this to my advantage and pulled her over my body as well. "Thanks for the introduction, Eddie boy," I snarled at Edward as Heidi crashed into the marble tiles.
Heidi made it up quickly before me but I made it up soon enough. I dodged her blow only because I knew it was coming. I blinked at her and gave a small little yawn. "Quil, get Claire out of here," I growled as Heidi and I collided yet again. She pulled me over her shoulder and threw me to the ground, her hand holding me down. "Rule number one, Heidi," I snarled at her. She smirked and raised an eyebrow. "Don't offer a limb on a silver platter," I hissed as I brought my spear down. It went straight through her hand and just barely nicked me. I winced and pulled it out, taking her hand along with it. Heidi screamed out in agony as I held her severed hand on my spear. "Need a hand?" I said and tilted my head to the side. "You don't get one," I said, waggling my finger at her. "And you want to know rule number two?" I asked rhetorically as I began to circle her. "Get her out of here, Quil," I growled. I heard some footsteps but only those two pairs. "They're gone," Edward said. "Thank you," I said as I unclipped my spear into the two separate parts.
"Rule number two is you don't…take…little girls." I hissed into Heidi's ear. She was still moaning over her lost hand. "Oh, come on, Heidi," I cried out in disappointment. I at least thought she'd get a whiff of me. "Fresh blood right here!" I cried out, holding my arms out to gesture me. Heidi let out a feral snarl and I heard a growl behind me then the ripping of clothes. When I looked back, the Pack had phased and was ready to pounce. They were just crouching when I threw half of my spear at the wall behind them. It landed inches from Sam's head.
"I don't think that's a very good idea," I said to them as I passed them and pulled the half out of the wall. It'd gone pretty deep; just how strong was I? I ground my teeth together and just barely let out a growl between my clenched teeth at Heidi. I stepped back calmly. She was crying over her hand still. "You want your hand back, Heidi?" I offered. My voice was no longer angry but instead controlled. It might've scared me had I not passed the line between rage and insane. Heidi looked up hopefully.
"You…" I said, looking up at the dome ceiling. "…came to my house," I said, looking back down at Heidi. "Get out, boys," I said. "She wants to do this alone." Edward said to the entire room. Aro let out a huff of disappointment. "You should set up cameras, Aro; it's a way of security," I said and smiled back at him. "…and its entertainment." I whispered. Aro smiled at me. "Now everyone get out," I said. Edward shot me a glance as the last one out. "Please," He said and glanced at Heidi. "Get carried away," He said. I rolled my eyes as he closed the door behind him. Now everything was silent. It was a peaceful silent until she decided to ruin it.
"Please…" Heidi begged. I blinked down at her. "You attacked me in my own home twice," I whispered to her and took her only hand as if to hold it. "And you gave me a scar." I said. "And you stole one of my best friends' life." I whispered to her. I leaned in so close I could smell her sweet vampire breath. The breath quickly turned to the rusty smell of blood. "That's unforgiveable," I said as I brought half of my spear down on her other hand. She let out a scream of agony that I have to admit pierced my eardrums. I'd be paying Hell after this was over. "Claire is four years old, Heidi," I said. "She has her whole life in front of her." I whispered into Heidi's ear. Heidi snapped at me but I quickly clasped my spear together and stabbed it forward in the same motion. She was mere milliseconds from biting me when the spear went all the way through and she froze. I pulled the spear up over my head, splitting her apart from the core up.
"I didn't want to do this, Heidi," I whispered as I stood up. She was mere shreds by now. I pulled out the Zippo lighter that Alice had lent me. It was silver with a small blue flame on it. It was meant for this occasion. "You made me do this." I said. I guess I really was insane. It wasn't because I believed in vampires. It wasn't because I believed in werewolves. It wasn't because I was in love with a werewolf who might never look at me the same way because of this. It was because...
I leaned against the wall of the throne room where Heidi had first been thrown. I watched as the room filled up with purple smoke. Then I cried.
