Playing With Thunder

"Magnifico!" Aro whispered as he saw everything Ren had ever seen or heard through her touch.

Wait a minute.

If I touch him then he'll know all about my plans to escape.

Will he tell them? Why would he?

But if he did all of my time carefully planning and plotting would've gone to waste!

They would know every single detail and would stop me!

"And you, young Leona?" I suppressed a shiver of excitement as he said my name.

I saw a pale hand in front of my eyes.

Please don't tell them. That was my last thought before reaching up and grasping the pale cold hand into my own.

I gasped in shock as I felt a spark travel up my arm directly to my heart.

I looked up into Aro's blood red eyes for the first time and my fate was sealed.

His skin was translucently white, like onionskin, and it looked just as delicate—it stood in shocking contrast to the long black hair that framed his face.

I felt a strange, compelling urge to touch his cheek, to see of it was as soft as it looked or if it was powdery, like chalk.

His eyes were red, the same as the others around him, but the color was clouded, milky; I wondered if his vision was affected by the haze.

But by the way he was staring right at me I assumed his vision was still just as perfect when he woke up to his immortal life.

He had an average build and seemed to be 5'10 and his very long jet black hair was slightly wavy as it tumbled down to his shoulders.

He was so handsome it made my knees tremble slightly.

I was wrong. I was so wrong. There is such thing as perfection.

Aro is perfection.

Aro is my perfection.

His soft eyes gazed into mine as he read every thought I had ever had with just one touch to his skin.

I didn't feel violated like I did when Edward invaded my thoughts, instead it was like someone had dumped a bucket of calm over me.

It felt lovely.

He blinked and I was snapped out of my trance. I gave a squeeze to his hand before letting it fall to my side.

I immediately felt empty without his touch.

My hand twitched and I desperately fought the urge to reach up and caress his old, but so handsome, face.

"Μπορείτε καημένη. Αίσθημα τόσο παραμελημένο. Με τη δική σας σάρκα και το αίμα." he said something in a language I was unfamiliar in before Bella reached up and tugged me back to her.

I gave her a glare, which she missed, before I turned my gaze back to Aro.

"Half mortal, half immortal. Conceived and carried by this newborn while she was still human." Aro called to his own witnesses.

"Impossible!" the blond haired man to Aro's right called.

"Do you think they fooled me, brother?" I gave a quiet snort at his dry voice.

His gaze snapped to me. The corners of his mouth twitched, fighting off a smile.

Bella and Edward began pulling me and Ren back to the other side of the of the snowy clearing.

I looked back at Aro, feeling a tugging in my chest, pulling me to him.

He gave me the slightest of nods, encouraging me to go with them for now.

I walked back with them, resuming my original spot, on the ground playing in the snow.

But every so often I would glance up to Aro.

I smirked to myself when an idea suddenly came to me.

I looked up at the sky, using my gift on mother nature.

The dark angry clouds rolled in and it started to thunder. Lightening cracked down where Ren and Jacob were standing.

He jumped back in fright with a little yip.

I slapped a hand over my mouth to contain my giggles. Aro looked at the clouds in wonder before realization struck him and he looked at me in awe of my power.

I smirked over at him and made it rain, but only on top of my side of the clearing.

Everyone was so confused. I was silently laughing to myself as they got soaked to the bone.

The expression on their face was so priceless.

They were so lost and confused.

It was bloody fantastic.

I looked back at Aro. He gave me a smile and a small shake of his head in amusement at my childish tactics. He turned his head and something to his guard. They all smirked as well and looked at me. Marcus and Caius were looking at me curiously as they witnessed my power.

He must've told them about my power and my under fondness for the Cullen 'family'.

I just shrugged my shoulders at them.

What are you gonna do about it? I'm a kid and I'm childish.

Now that I think about it, I was probably not the best person for this gift.

As soon as I thought that another bout of lightening struck them.

I buried my face in my hands as my shoulders shook with laughter.

I should've done this ages ago!

God this is hilarious!

Aro subtly raised a hand in my direction giving me a look.

Enough.

I playfully pouted at him but made the clouds go away.

I furrowed my brow concentrated before a lily randomly showed up at Aro's feet.

I heard his gleeful laughter from here as he bent down and picked it up.

He gave me a smile and put it in his pocket.

I smirked at him before going back to playing the snow.

By now everyone had calmed down from the lightening incident and was back to the matter at hand.

Do they kill me and Ren or not?

I hoped they killed Ren.

I saw Caius wave Irina forward.

He pointed to Ren and said something.

Irina shook her head.
