Here are my recommendations anyway
Music: Fall Out Boy's new album. They have a song with Brendan from Panic At The Disco! And listen to the end of What A Catch, Donnie
Book: the Artemis Fowl series by Eoin Colfer
Well, here's the next chapter!!!!
Oh ya. I forgot this in the other chapters but I have to put in a disclaimer. I don't own twilight. I wish I did because then I might manage to get my hands on Edward's DNA!!!! Hehehe! Well, that great privilege belongs to Stephenie Meyer.
APOV
Emmett finding a bear that he really enjoyed, Carlisle saving a patient, Esme buying new curtains. Nothing that interesting is about to happen this week. It's at times like these that I really hoped that something a bit more interesting would happen. I froze. Bella.
Bella was stepping out onto the road. She was heading somewhere with a purpose. The van coming. Hitting her. People in long, dark cloaks getting out. Dragging her into the back of the van. Another stepping out. Turning to the crowd. Speaking. "You saw none of this." Getting back into the van. Everything on the street normal. No Bella.
The Voltouri.
I have to call Edward.
EPOV
She's gone. Bella is gone. She's thousands of miles away, and not by my side. She was taken by people who plan to harm her. I have to get her back.
Within an hour of her being taken, I had a plane booked for Italy. It was to leave at seven in the evening, and it would be dark by then. I would be safe from prying eyes. I will get her back, at any cost.
I was on my way to the airport in a newly acquired silver Volvo. It was safer to have this in the day light than to run. Tinted windows are a god-send. I was about half-way there when my phone started ringing. I answered it without looking at the caller id.
"Yes?" I said in a pained voice.
"Edward! Something really bad is going to happen to…" Alice. She must have had a vision.
"To late Alice. It already happened. I don't know the specifics, but I know the Voltouri have her. Jane stopped by to stop me from stopping them and deliver a message."
"Oh. Edward I'm so sorry. I'll be there as soon as possible. We'll get her back don't worry."
"I'm going tonight. I will go on my own I can't risk putting any of you in danger."
"But I want to help! Bella is my friend!"
"Well, if you want to help, tell me exactly what you saw. It's not as if I can hear what you're thinking over the phone."
"She was crossing the road when a van hit her. It seemed to be intentional, it didn't slow down before. It just kept going until it hit her." I could barely stand to hear all of this, but I knew that I had to get as much information as possible. "When she was on the ground, people in long dark cloaks came out of the back. They were completely covered up so my guess is that it was the guard. They took her into the van. Then another came out and said "You saw none of this," and everything was normal again. It was as if none of it had ever happened."
They definitely had her, and I would get her back.
"Thanks Alice. You can tell Carlisle and the rest what happened."
"Bye Edward. I hope you come back with her."
"So do I Alice, so do I."
***********************************************************************************
On the plane, I pretended to be asleep as I formed a plan in my head. Not only because I needed to, but also to distract me from the gapping hole where my heart should be.
I would get some car when I arrived there. It will be the middle of the night by the time the plan has landed so I should be safe on that account. I would drive to Volterra which should take about an hour or two and get to the Voltouri. Plan A is to just ask what they have done with Bella. If they refuse to tell me, then I will use brute force. If they have killed her, I will ask them to deliver the same fate to me. That is my only wish.
It is not as hard as I would have thought to be cooped up in this flying metal tube with sweating humans surrounding me. They are oblivious to the killer that lurks among them, namely, me. I wondered what they would have done if they found out that a vampire was on board. Whip out crosses and holy water? Cry in a corner? Beg to be spared? Plead to become a monster? I could only imagine.
The thoughts of some of them! It really goes to show how manners have changed over the last century. There was a couple planning to have sex in the bathroom even though we were only five minutes from landing. Mainly it was sex, money, holidays, and food. Completely mundane things. Could they not sense the pain that I know that I must be omitting right now? It really was beyond me how ignorant some humans could be. Going about their lives as if there was nothing wrong with the world when so many were suffering.
Then we touched down. I was in the same country as Bella again. So close, but I still had some obstacles to overcome. Like obtaining a fast car for instance. I went through customs fairly quickly as I had no luggage of any sort. When I stepped outside, it was pitch black. Perfect. I needn't find a car with tinted windows. It would be at least another few hours until sunrise.
I scanned the car park for a suitable transport and it didn't take long until I found it. Silver Porsche Boxer. Fast, sleet, tinted windows for later. I would have called it perfect, but nothing could be perfect while Bella was in danger. I walked over as quickly as I could without looking conspicuous. Just keep looking confident. That was all it took.
When I got to the door, I stuck a piece of wire that I had brought with me at Alice's request down the inside of the door and unlocked it faster than the human eye could detect. I opened the door and sat into the driver seat. Again, faster than human's would be able to see, I hotwired the car. This might have been an obstacle to some people, but with my vampire senses, it was nothing.
I speed off out of the car park as quickly as I could, ignoring the dirty looks and thoughts that I could see and hear from all around me and the speed limits, not that I paid that much attention to them back home. Back home when Bella would have been scolding me for driving this fast. I nearly started to slow down, reflexes, but then I thought of where Bella was and under which circumstances.
It didn't take that long for me to reach the outskirts of Volterra. It was still dark, about three in the morning. I drove as far in as I could, but keeping up their medieval image, the police don't let anyone drive in past one. I parked in the visitors' cark park, checked if there was anyone nearby. When I was sure that I was safe, I began to run as only one of my kind can, maybe even faster. I reached the wall in a tenth of a second, scaled it in less and was in the middle of the city in ten seconds.
When I was there, I cast my mind out to touch the minds of others. The Voltouri have kept the same quarters for over a thousand years, but they change the location of the entrance quite often. When I found the guards of the door, I headed straight there. I thanked whatever Gods there might be for my kind that there was a friendly face at the gate.
"We've been expecting you Edward." Came the voice of Felix when I reached my destination. "I just want to let you know that I was completely against taking your mate, even though she was human."
"I know that you wouldn't do that Felix. You don't have a thing to worry about. I have a bone to pick with Aro, to put it mildly."
"I won't delay you any longer. Straight ahead. He's waiting for you."
After that, I ran again. If I weren't for the reason that I was here, I would have loved to catch up with Felix. He has been a great friend over the years. Telling me that I had the right to make my own decision over my diet. Supporting me in either one. I would have dwelled on the subject longer, but then, something slightly more important required my full attention.
I had reached the main chamber.
