Angelica's POV
I ran through the woods towards Forks.
When I finally got back to Charlie's I was relieved to see his police cruiser in the drive way, the vampires would definitely not attack if I was with Bella's father.
I stumbled through the door way, my energy was fading fast as my body tried to fight the pain. I heard Charlie in the living room but before could make it any further I fell to the floor crying out in pain.
"Angelica? Is that you?" I heard Charlie shout.
I could only whimper.
I heard his footsteps as he ran towards me. "Angelica, oh my god. What happened? I thought you were with the Cullens. I'll call Carlisle right away"
"No!" I screamed. "Please, keep those vampires away from me" I started to sob uncontrollably.
"Angelica, honey. You have stitches in your arm and you look like you just got out of surgery. We need to get you to a doctor" he said and started to help me up.
"I can't, no" I shouted and I could feel my body trembling. My whole body heated up until I exploded into a huge mass of fur.
Charlie was shuffling back on the floor as he stared at me in horror,
The stitches in my arms had fallen out and my arm was bleeding incredibly fast my arm felt as if it was on fire, and I was struggling to breathe.
I roared out in pain.
The door crashed open and I saw Embry and the teacher vampire standing before me.
I shifted back and when I looked at me arm the gruesome look of the injury almost made me gag.
"How many times do I have to ask you to leave me alone" I cried as the pain in my arm became numb.
The vampire came up to me and knelt beside me.
"We are not going to hurt you; we just want to make sure you're okay. Everyone is upset now about what you did to my granddaughter but we are willing to overlook it, if you will just calm yourself and trust us" she said.
I nodded.
The small vampire, noticing I was being reasonable, picked me up and carried me out the house.
I looked towards Charlie, who was getting over the shock of seeing me transform. "I'm sorry Charlie" I whispered.
And then I passed out from blood loss.
When I woke up again I was back in a hospital bed.
The vampire doctor was sitting on a leather seat in the corner reading a book, but when he heard me stir he stood up.
And then I noticed I was tied down.
Leather straps held my wrists and ankles to the bed, and I began to panic.
No! I can't be chained up again. I can't have my freedom taken away from me, not again please not again.
"Please remain calm, we are not holding you prison" said the red head. "This is just a precaution as some people in this house are afraid of what you might do"
"Please I don't like being tied up, I…I can't stand being chained up like an animal"
Memories flashed before my eyes about being strapped down and whipped, all the time they chain me up, but even when I transformed I couldn't break free. Not until the guards forgot to tighten them.
Sadness registered on his face, and I knew he had read my mind.
"Edward what's wrong?"
Edward, so that was his name, now I remember.
"She's remembering all the times the Volturi tied her up and tortured her, the sadness and pain she felt is overwhelming"
The doctor also turned sad after hearing my misfortune.
"Please, I won't do anything. Just let me out…please" I said while sobbing.
They looked at each other, and were about to undo the straps when a model like blonde walked into the room with an angry snarl on her face.
"Don't, have you seen what she did to Nessie. She shouldn't be allowed out, she could hurt someone" she said.
The doctor turned to the model vampire "Rosalie, I know you're worried about Nessie, but if we keep treating her like the Volturi did then she'll never trust us".
I was still sobbing but was able to hear her last words as she left the room. "Okay, but I'll be watching her"
When they released me I sat up.
I moved no further, I just sat there with tears streaming down my face.
"I'm sorry about what I did. I was just scared" I whispered through my tears.
They nodded in acknowledgment and helped lift me up off the bed.
I looked at them confused.
"We are going downstairs for a family meeting… about you" Edward answered my unspoken question.
They held onto my arms as we walked down the stairs, still worried that I might run again. I let out a sigh and just let them lead me to the living room.
There were lots of vampires there… and werewolves. They all stared at me when we entered the room, most glared at me whilst some looked at me with pity in their eyes. I wanted to scream out that I didn't need their pity, that they had no right to feel like that towards me they were monsters.
Edward growled beside me and I let my mind go blank.
"Okay everyone, Angelica here has promised to behave herself. She apologises for what she did and swears that she only acted out of fear, she meant us no intentional harm" said Doctor Cullen.
The two vampires lead me to a seat that was in an isolated corner of the room, but could be seen from where everyone was sat, when I sat down I let a small cry of pain. Two powerful looking vampires, including the one that came with the pixie girl stood guard next to the chair. I curled my legs up onto the chair with me and wrapped my uninjured arm around my knees, my face was still stained with tears and I'm pretty sure I looked like a complete mess.
I was in a hospital gown and I was still in a lot of pain, but they all continued to glare at me.
"So… what do you want?" I asked.
"We want to know if you can control yourself" the werewolf called Sam blurted.
I suddenly became angry "oh you want to know if I can control myself…well I was doing a pretty good job at it until you all started to interfere in my life." I snarled. "I went to school; I had a normal life that I have always dreamed of having for a while, until you all ruined it".
"We only wanted to keep an eye on you, we are trying to protect people here in Forks" said the pixie vampire.
"Well I want to be left alone, why couldn't you do that? If you had I wouldn't have even been here and I wouldn't have touched the girl. I wouldn't have ran off and gotten attacked by a wolf" I looked up and saw the only female werewolf in the room and glared at her, she had a look of shame and remorse on her face.
"Leah is very sorry about what she did, and we are to about scaring you like that" said the nice vampire who had followed me to Charlie's.
I looked down and remained silent.
"Look, it's not that we are worried about the safety of the humans we are also worried about you, you have been through so much and we want to make sure you're okay" said Bella.
"Don't feel sorry for me. I hate it how you show emotions towards me, how you act like you care when all your kind has ever done to me is caused me pain" I glared at her.
"We are not like the Volturi; in fact they hate us too. We have become too powerful and they are worried about us trying to over throw them, we have stood against them and hate what they have done to you" Bella stood up and moved towards me "we want you to trust us, we can help you. If the Volturi ever try coming here they can't touch us" she said and was now kneeling in front of me.
"But they have those witch twins, they're too powerful to stand against" I whispered.
"Their powers won't work on me, I have a shield and can protect everyone from them" she said proudly.
I noticed her husband Edward was nervous about how close she was to me, and I was wary as I sat up.
The vamps next to me stiffened and were prepared to defend Bella if I went after her, "I have one question, why did you stand up to the Volturi?"
She smiled "They thought we had created an immortal child" I nodded I had heard Aro talk about them before. "When really we had a hybrid of a human and vampire…my daughter Renesmee".
To say I was shocked would have been a huge understatement "she's your daughter?" I whispered.
I looked towards the girl realising how remarkable of a resemblance she had to both Bella and Edward.
"I'm sorry" I said to the girl and Bella.
And then I curled up into a ball and began crying.
