A/N: ok so I'm a horrible person. I think it's been over a year since I last updated this and the other day I actually got a review for it. I figured most people who read this forgot about it already so I wasn't in any hurry to finish it but for a new person to like it enough to review….u.u I'm gonna try and bang the rest of this out and I already have the next chapter written so we'll see how this goes. So basically this exists because of godschild4ever. Hope you like it ^.^
A/N2: On another note this story won't be beta'd by icedemonrose anymore because she just had a baby and I won't bother her with this. The next few chapters won't be beta'd at all actually because my other beta is in the wrong state and doesn't reply to my emails promptly if at all. My grammar has improved a bit so I hope it won't be too glaringly bad but please bear with me for a while.
I heard the clock tower chime three o'clock as I wandered around the castle. Bee had left to go be alone, meditate or curse her husband; I don't know which. I didn't have to see doc until four so I still had some time to kill. I was thinking about Edward, and the Volturi and how weird my life has gotten in general when a girly shriek of terror flooded the hall. I ran toward the source and came to a stop outside bee's room. Which wasn't good. That meant zeb had to be back which would mean that I would have to talk to him. I knew I was going to have to talk to him eventually, after all I promised, but I didn't think he would be back this soon. I didn't have to go see doc for at least an hour so there wasn't any good excuse to avoid him. I guess the sooner I get this over with the better. I knocked on the door lightly and it was jerked open almost instantly.
"call the police, we've been robbed." I felt a small smile tugging at my lips and fought desperately against it. This wasn't funny, their relationship was hanging by a thread and I had to try and fix it, but he was just being so dramatic.
"Zeb you haven't been robbed. It's jus-"
"yes we have. look!" he flung the door to the room open so I could see its contents, or lack thereof, "at least half of our stuff is gone!"
"zeb the stuff gone because Bee moved out." He stared at me blankly, obviously not comprehending what I said.
"what?"
"Bee found the letter and so she moved out."
"…what letter?"
"what do you mean? I haven't had an affair in over ten years? What letter would there be for her to find?" I just stared at him wondering if he was seriously reacting this way, I don't care if he hadn't had an affair recently; having an affair at all was completely unacceptable. He sighed and leaned against the wall. "what's with the face? I said I didn't cheat so shouldn't you be running off to tell Bee that it was all a misunderstanding or whatever."
"how can you be so nonchalant about this! Your marriage is on the line here!"
"cool your jets Isabella, my marriage is always on the line. Look there are many different types of people in the world. Some people are penguins, they have one mate for their entire lives and are perfectly happy. Other people are lions and like to keep their options open."
"and you're not a penguin."
"I am not. I have tried to become one for Bee but it's not easy."
"make it easy. Talk to Bee and fix this." He rubbed his head, obviously frustrated.
"you don't know my life Bella, don't tell me how to run it."
"but if you-"
"enough! I don't want to talk about this anymore. I love Bee very much but I can't deal with this again, not right now. I will talk to my wife and I will fix this, just stop meddling." He slammed the door in my face and left me standing in the hallway.
"well, well you seem to be in a pickle." I whipped around to find Yami standing behind me. She just stood there smiling like she hadn't gotten me into this situation, like this entire thing wasn't her fault.
"what the hell do you think you're doing here!"
"talking to you."
"look I don't have time to deal with your insanity so unless you're going to help me find my family or help me fix this mess then get out of my way."
"but I am fixing. More than my brother would like anyway. It's not my fault that you are an insufferable moron."
"excuse me?"
"oh don't give me that crap. I may look like a child but I have been alive longer than your entire family line and I do not have time to deal with this bull crap. Now I realize that you think that you are the center of the universe but I have seen the center of the universe and am here to tell you that it looks nothing like you. So it's about time you grew up. Some things need your attention, some things do not. Some things can be saved and others cannot and as much as it pains me to say it quite a bit of this dimension's fate is resting on your inadequate shoulders so how about you shut the fuck up and focus. Bee is important, her relationship is not."
The…very scary child disappeared as she was apt to do, leaving me standing in the middle of the hallway with my mouth hanging open. It wasn't every day that I got cussed out by a six year old or, as the case seemed, someone who looked like they were six. And just what was all that talk about the fate of the dimension or something like that? That's just…messed up. And confusing. You know what, screw it. I don't know what she's talking about but I think I got the message pretty clear. Leave the Volturi to sort out their own problems and focus on trying to save the Cullens.
I ran back to my room and left Bee a note telling what happened and telling her that I wasn't going to be their go-between any more. Once that was done I ran down to Markus' office, having to stop for directions a couple of times since the last time the volturi head was in aro's office for some…inexplicable reason. But once I finally found it I almost barged right in without even knocking. Almost. But I still had some value for this rather twisted life I had I paused and knocked sharply. Entering quickly after I heard permission.
"alright markus, let's get on with this training montage."
The pale girl shifted through time space, letting her pretty doll disintegrate back into what it once was, big brother hated it when she made herself things. but he hated most things anyway. She let herself drift in her human form, enjoying the way her hair curled and twisted around her face, until she bumped into a large dark dragon. She turned around, eyes wide with surprise and the dragon cracked one of its glossy eyes open. They both knew she wasn't really supprised, but then again, they both knew the dragon wasn't really sleeping.
Yang.
"why hello jack. Fancy meeting you here."
Don't call me that Yang…you've been meddling again.
"oh don't start off scolding me." She huffed and floated down her brother's snake-like body to the tip of his tail. "And it took me a long time to come up with your nickname. You should appreciate it."
Jack Sparrow is hardly a creative nickname. And I will not encourage this obsession with earth by allowing you to call me it…hey- STOP THAT!
The girl had grabbed hold of the end of the flicking tail and was in the process of pulling out the strands of hair at the very end. "I will not, how am I supposed to check on your heath if I don't take samples? You should be used to this by now."
You would not have to check if you were where you were supposed to be! Chronos, this obsession is unhealthy!
"I am merely helping others along the path. I am doing nothing wrong."
All things come to an end. It is not our place to interfere, we must simply watch as things happen as they always have.
"that's where you're wrong brother. There are many paths and many things happen along all the different turns. If I do not help then this world will never reach The Glorious End because there is no way for her to get to where she needs to be in time." her brother glared at her before sighing and closing his eye again. "are you tired?"
Always tired
"then sleep. There is time enough for our never ending dance another day."
