Aida's POV
Garrett and I arrived at the castle and I looked to him. He could tell something was up.
"What? Is something wrong?" I asked him curious to know what he knew.
"It's too silent here." Garrett tells me as we make out way into the castle and see it is empty.
That was odd, there was usually someone around somewhere. We start to search room after room. I knew I had to find Marcus I had to stop what I knew was coming. I then get to the throne room where I hear a loud scream. I burst the doors open with my powes and walk inside with Garrett to see Winifred (water), Alena (Air), and Fred (Fire).
"Ah dear sister just in time to see us finish them off." Winnie says with a smile on her face.
I look and see Alena has Aro in her grasp, Fred has Caius and Winnie has Marcus. A part of me just begins to boil with anger but then stops as I see Aro and Caius try to go forward and bite my fellow elements. My powers then come into play and I throw Marcus, Caius and Aro onto the walls and hold them there.
"Sister you want to take care of them yourself?" Fred asks me confused.
"No, I can't kill them. At least one of them that is." I tell him as I still keep the three held against the wall.
"What are you talking about Aida?" Alena says as she walks to me. "We don't have to worry about them if we kill them."
"Alena! I am the leader of the elements am I not?!" I yell at her.
"You are sister but one of them have treated you ever so bad and the others well to be honest I really see no need for them." Winnie says as she looks at Aro and Caius.
"If Marcus dies then something horrible will happen to me. I had to drink his blood to restore my own." I tell them as they look at me in shock.
"So he's the prince that came to save you?" Fred says pointing to Marcus. "Really sister you could have found someone much better looking, age well anything at this point."
"Fred, really now is not the time. Let's just make a peace agreement and then leave shall we?" I ask them as I drop Marcus, Aro and Caius.
"Aida you know we can't do that. We have to make an example at the very least." Alena says telling me one of our rules passed on from element to element.
Alena was right, if something like this ever happened we had to make an example and use our powers to prove our strength. I just sighed as the perfect target walked inside. Aro's wife, hey revenge is bitter sweet.
"Fine, her then." I say as I point to Aro's wife.
Fred, Winnie and Alena turn and look at her then look back to me with a smile of their faces. I guess they agree with whom I have chosen.
"Sister do give us our orders." Winnie said with a smile.
"Winnie, hold down Aro. Fred hold down Caius. Alena hold down Marcus they want to see our powers then they shall." I tell her as I can feel my power building up inside of me.
Winnie smiles at me as she goes to Aro and puts him forcibly in his throne.
"You see vampires you had no idea what you were dealing with. Thinking you could make her your weapon? Ha you are just toys to us." Winnie said as she stands next to his throne.
"Marcus would have left with her. He is needed here more." Aro says looking at her.
"Tell it to someone who cares." Winnie said as she looked back to me.
Fred then went forward and grabbed Caius and threw him into his throne. Caius looked back at him with anger in his eyes.
"Go ahead I dare ya pal!" Fred says as a ball of fire appears in his hand. "You don't scare me little bat."
"You have no idea who you are dealing with." Caius tells him.
"Some stupid vampire who sucks the blood of living people in order to survive a much longer lifetime then needed?" Fred says staring at him. "I wouldn't move unless you want to truly see what hell is like."
"Fred, just make sure he stays still." I tell him as Fred nods at me and stands beside Caius throne.
Lastly Alena goes to Marcus but knowing how I feel about him she offers him her hand. Marcus looks up at her confused.
"I will not harm you Marcus, I know you truly love my sister." Alena says as she offers her hand again and Marcus takes it.
Alena leads Marcus over to his throne where he sits down and looks back up at her.
"I wouldn't try and stop her though if I were you. Aida is the strongest of all of us. Her powers would make yours look like a parlor trick." Alena says as she stands beside his throne.
"Why must she do this?" Marcus asks her.
"It's a tradition we have had to do for centuries. Consider it a warning of sorts." Alena says as she crosses her arms.
I then walk to Aro's wife and grab her arm and lead her to the center of the room. There using my powers I summon the earth around her feet to harden therefore keeping her in place.
"Winnie you may start." I tell her as she looks at me.
"As a punishment and warning for harming, and threatening the element of earth a deminstartion of our powers shall be carried out of this vampire. You may tell us who she is and who she belongs to or else we shall avert punishment on you." Winnie says turning to Aro.
Aro says nothing and stays silent, Fred then looks at Caius who does the same thing. Alena then looks at Marcus who doesn't know what to do.
"Fine no name not a problem to me but obviously she is one of your wives, let me guess you?" Winnie asked Aro. "She looks like your type you know crazy. Now either tell me yes or no or else you join her buddy."
"She's my wife." Aro says through his teeth.
"Finally an answer!" Winnie says.
"Winnie come on, enough." I tell her with a sigh.
"Right, Aro's wife since you have no name apparently. We know you have done horrible things against our sister I being the element of water am to cleanse you before my brother and sister use their powers on you." Winnie says as she uses her powers and a waterfall pours down on Aro's wife.
I just shake my head at Winnie, everything has to be a drama with her. Next was Alena. She barely walked forward as Winnie stopped the water.
"I as the element of air do take the air from your lungs no longer granting your permission to breathe." Alena says using her powers and taking the air out of Aro's wife's lungs.
Using my powers I do steady the body as she gasps for air. Next was my turn and I knew this wasn't going to be good.
"I being the element of earth no longer grant you permission to use my element to keep youself alive so I heardby crush your bones and make them dust." I tell her.
Since my powers are holding her up it doesn't really effect her as Fred comes forward with a big smile on his face.
"I being the element of fire no longer need you on this earth. You have harmed an element and tried to even kill her. So now I shall burn your body and return you to earth so she may do with you what she wishes." Fred says as he thrusts his powers forward making the vampire go up into flames.
I turn away releasing my powers from the vampire and when Fred is done. I look back to see the vampire is nothing but a pile of ashes. Alena knows I don't know what to do as she walks forward and uses her element to scatter the ashes away.
"Consider this your one and only warning." Winnie says as she walks to my side.
"You are not the most powerful beings as you think you are." Fred says as he walks to my side.
"Now you know to fear of even though one of you do love one of us." Alena says as she walks to me side as well all four elements together.
I keep my mouth close even though I know I have to say something. I look at Aro, Caius and Marcus. I can tell Caius doesn't really care he thinks he will always be better than us. Aro just stares at where his wife once was as Marcus stands from his throne and walks forward to us.
"Aida, you tried to warn me this would happen didn't you?" Marcus asks me.
"I did." I tell him quickly.
"So, it's true the vampire mated with Aida. Well he should no better than to mess with us now. Come sisters, brother." Winnie says as she starts walking to the door.
"Your leaving?" Marcus asks me.
"She's not safe here Marcus. Your brothers well when you left her you made your decision. She may love you but she doesn't belong with you." Alena tells him.
I turn to her as I see Garrett come up to us. Winnie just smiles at Garrett as Fred pats his back and walks past him.
"I'm sorry Marcus. I tried to tell you but you wouldn't listen." I tell him as Alena puts her hand on my arm.
"You can't, I can't live without you." Marcus tells me as he takes my hand.
"You have before and you'll do it again. Aida come on we have to go." Alena says as she walks away.
"I'm so sorry Marcus." I tell him as I quickly kiss him then turn back to walk out with my other siblings.
"Aida! Wait!" I hear Marcus call out for me but I keep walking I can't stand this.
Fred stops Marcus from running after me.
"It's too late man. You made your choice now be a good vampire and stay here would ya?" Fred says as he walks up to me with Garrett. "You'll find another after all light and dark we just don't go together pal."
Marcus POV
They took her. The other elements just took her from me! How could they do such a thing?! The air element knew how much I loved Aida. I turn back to see Caius go to Aro who won't move at all.
"This is all because of you!" I yell at Aro and I run to him and grab him by his throat and hold him against the wall. "I lost her because of you and your dumb wife!"
"Marcus let him go. He just lost his wife." Caius says as he runs over but I grab him by his throat.
"And I lost my mate. Aro can get another wife but I refuse to look for another mate! Even if there was one out there!" I tell him as anger pulses through my body.
I want to leave here. I want nothing more to do with this place nor my so called brothers. I only want to be with Aida.
"I am warning you two. I want nothing more to do with either of you! I am leaving for good. Don't look for me or Aida if you do then I swear to you I will kill you both!" I say as I release them and start to walk out of the room.
"What makes you think she will accept you back? After all you chose us over her." Aro says finally speaking as he holds his throat.
"Because I love her and I won't abandoned her. I should have never listened to you Aro. I never will again either." I tell him as I walk out of the castle this time for the very last time.
Garrett's POV
I couldn't believe what the elements could do. Especailly seeing them together. It was odd Aida was the oldest and strongest, Winnie the water element was the more serious one. Alena the air element was mostly kind and compassionate and Fred well he was just crazy really. I was surprised they let me follow them.
All the sudden I hear something to my left. I look over and see Aida has wondered off. I can only imagine what is going on in not only her head but her heart as well.I decide just to give her some time.
Aida's POV
I can't do this. I can feel our bond calling out to eachother. We need one another so badly but he can't leave his brothers. He actually chose them over me. I kneel down on the earth and begin to weep. I hated being without Marcus with out him holding me, kissing me just being with him. Then I sense something very familiar I feel a pair of cold arms go around me. I look up and am surprised to see Marcus. Without even thinking I grab him and kiss him holding him as close to me as I can.
"Marcus oh god I thought I would never see you again." I tell him as I look into his red eyes.
"No, I told them I would never help them again. I am here with you now and forever my love." Marcus says as he grabs me and kisses me again.
"Oh good he came. Winnie you owe me ten bucks!" I hear Fred call out.
I barely look up at see Winnie, Alena and Fred looking down at us.
"What do you know, he actually had the balls to come after you. I must say I underestimated you vampire." Winnie says with a laugh.
"I knew you'd come for her. Hey we knew we had to test you after all she is our oldest sister." Alena says smiling at Marcus.
"Yeah now we know that you love her good for you two. How did the other vampires take this bit of news?" Fred asks Marcus.
"I told them I wanted nothing to do with them and not to look for me or else I would kill them." Marcus tells them as he holds me close.
"Short, sweet and to the point. I like it." Fred says with a laugh.
"You think they will listen or should we have killed them too?" Winnie asks.
"If they know what's good for them they will listen." Marcus says.
"Don't worry we won't take Aida away we actually have to seperate as well. All four elements together not a good idea. We heard you had a friend in Washington. We suggest you go there and don't worry the elements will be there when you need us." Alena says as she smiles and disappears into the air.
"Show off." Winnie says with a smile as she walks to a stream. "It was lovely to meet you Marcus but you hurt her and I will drown you."
"I would die before I hurt her." Marcus tells her.
Winnie smilles before disappearing into the water. I look up to Fred and raise an eye brow at him.
"What? I gotta take a bus my element isn't as discrete as theirs." Fred says as he rolls his eyes. "I agree with Winnie though. You hurt her and we will know it. We got the other vampire keeping an eye on your two."
We walk with Fred and Garrett to the bus station where Fred is about to board.
"Well sis always good to see you but next time lets try under better circumstances shall we?" Fred asks as he gets on the bus and it drives off.
"Well where do we go to now?" I ask Marcus already having a pretty good idea.
"Alena suggested Washington so why not follow her advice?" Marcus asks.
"Yeah, just in case anything does happen at least we would have the Cullens on our side." I tell him as I see Garrett walking off into the distance.
"Where is he going?" Marcus asks me.
"I have no idea." I tell Marcus with a laugh. "Wherever he wants to I guess."
Marcus POV
7 months later
I never thought I would be able to leave Italy every again but I did with Aida at my side. We went to Washington per Alena's suggestion. Once there we arrived at the Cullens door much to Carlisles surprise.
"Marucs? Aida? Is something wrong?" Carlisle asks us.
"May we come in for a moment Carlisle?" I ask him as he nods and lets us enter.
"We have come together to join your coven though we will not be Cullens I made it quite clear to my once brothers I was no longer interested in their deeds especailly when trying to kill my mate." I explain to Carlisle as Esme walks up and looks at Aida in a funny way.
"Something wrong Esme?" Aida asks her.
"Oh Aida, come with me for a moment." Esme says as she takes Aida away for a moment.
I sit and explain things to Carlsile including the death of Aro's wife when all the sudden we hear what seems to be Esme cry out in joy. Carlisle and I run to her and Aida and see Bella there as well. I am confused by Bella's state it appears that she is pregnant as well.
"What? What happened?" Carlisle asks Esme.
"Can't you tell? They have the same glow!" Esme says with excitement.
"Same glow?" I ask Carlisle confused.
"This is going to be a very personal question Marcus but have you and Aida been together in a sexual sense?" Carlisle asks me.
"Carlisle what are you getting at?" I ask him confused.
"I think she's pregnant!" Esme says with a big smile.
"How is that possible?" I ask her.
"Well since she is has a mortal body it is possible just like it was with Bella and Edward and she is pregnant as you can tell." Carlisle tries to explain to me.
"Oh my god, I have never heard of something like this." Aida says looking to Bella then herself.
"Well to be honest no one has ever mated with an element or vampire before. We are in unknown territory now. Well I'm glad you came Marcus now I can watch both Bella and Aida." Carlisle said as he went over to Aida and looked her over.
"Aida? Do you feel any different?" I ask her.
"Well now that you mention it back at the castle I did feel a lot more powerful, like my powers grew somehow." she tells me as she watches Carlisle.
"If I could Marcus I would like to examine Aida." Carlisle asks.
"If it's alright with her then you may." I tell him.
Aida just nods as Carlisle puts her on a medical beds and begins to listen to her.
"Do you feel sick or anything along those lines?" Carlisle asks Aida.
"No, I feel fine really besides being tired from the trip." she says with a yawn.
"We do not wish to intrude so we will have to find other lodgings on build one." I tell her and Carlisle.
"Ask Esme she could help design something for you. I'm sure Alice would like to help as well." Carlisle says looking up from Aida.
"I'll do that. How is she?" I ask him.
"Well I can say she has a clean bill of health but she would have to take a test to see if she is pregnant. It's too early to tell by the eye." Carlisle tells us.
Two days later.
Bella and Aida have grown somewhat closer talking about children and her possible pregnancy. Bella was married to Edward after all though. How would Aida feel if she were with child but un married? I love Aida with all of my heart and I would love to make her my wife but would she have me? After all I had done to her would she accept me as her husband?
The next thing I notice there is a knock at the door. Esme opens it and there stands Alena with a big smile on her face.
"Oh hello, sorry I know that you don't know me but I'm Alena. Element of air and Aida's sister. Could I see her please?" she asks very giddy.
"Oh of course." Emse says letting her in.
Aida turns around and stands as Alena smiles and hugs her.
"Oh sister I am so happy about your news. I got it first, Winnie would come but her and Fred have something going on somewhere else so here I am." Alena says with a smile.
"News? I didn't send any news." Aida tells her confused.
"Oh sis come on. It's been forever since we had a little child we are so excited to see another element will be here soon!" Alena says as she looks at Aida.
"So this has happened before?" Aida asks her.
"Well we usually mate mortals or one of the other elements but never a vampire so this will be very interesting." Alena says as she looks to me. "Hope you plan on marrying her since you knocked her up."
Aida just stares at her in shock. Obviously this was not something Aida had though about, if she did she didn't think that Alena would say anything about it.
"I think that Marcus was going to take Aida somewhere tonight he might do it then." Bella says as she stands from the couch.
The mortal may have a good idea. For once in her life that is. I quickly excuse myself to go find Carlsile.
Aida's POV
"Really Alena did you have to do that?" I ask her.
"Hey it was worth seeing the look on his face. Oh by the way the other two vampires I think they may be planning something and we want in on it. We will come together and defeat them if we have to." Alena tells me with a serious look on her face.
"What would they plan? They know we could take them down." I tell her.
"Well I think they want revenge you know for us killing that one vampire and then you know Marcus going after you to be happily in love forever. Yeah don't think that went over well with them." Alena says with a roll of her eyes.
Hope you guys are all enjoying the story. Sorry If I got the time line a little off with Bella being prego (Seriously be happy she is still alive) Anyway any Questions or Comments please let me know!
