To those people to have favourited, alerted and authored, THANK YOU LOOOOOOADS!
Honestly, I could kiss you I'm that happy.
By the way, I can't take full credit for this story. My amazing big brother and I just threw some idea's together although I'm the one who wrote it, the idea was mainly his. Let's give a review thanking Chris!
Also a huge thank you to my baby sister Becky for picking some epic-fied vampire names.
PLEASE READ! THIS IS IMPORTANT!
I can't use the internet from Monday to Friday next week.
Its part of my punishment, I'm severely sorry. I will make up for it though by uploading at least two chapters next weekend.
Anyway, ON WITH THE SHOW!
"Here? Already? I thought we had more time!" Aro panicked. It was odd seeing Aro panic; he's always a very calm, tranquil but chirpy person.
"Yes, master. They're in the city. We have minutes left." Jane matched Aro's tone. I had never seen Jane scared before. If I wasn't so terrified myself I would had probably enjoyed it.
"Should we leave?" I heard Stefan whisper to Vladimir.
"No. We are not cowards." Vladimir said firmly although fear was clear in his eyes.
I sprinted over to Jasper and held his hand tightly. Why did we have to come here? This could have been resolved without us being here. What if they were bluffing about their numbers and they are just one or two?
"But we didn't know. It could have been thousands for all we knew. It's better to be safe than sorry." Edward said. His face was tight and I knew he was thinking if he was ever going to see Bella again.
"Prevention is better than cure." Esme guessed what I was thinking and smiled at me. It didn't reach her eyes. Her topaz liquid marbles scanned the room. Once they settled on Carlisle she was at his side in a flash.
I took the time to memorize all of my families and friends faces. Just in case we lost some.
Emmett was arguing with Rose and had an irritated look on his face. Rose was pleading with him. After a moment I got the gist of it. She was begging him to leave with her but he wanted to stay and 'get a piece of the sweet action cake'.
Edward was standing away from everyone, looking like a complete outcast and I could see that he felt like one too. I know part of him wished that Bella was here so he could tell her once again how much he loves her and how much he wanted her to be safe and happy. But he was also relieved that she wasn't here to be in such danger.
Esme and Carlisle were having a silent conversation. Both had a hand on each other's face and were just gazing into each other's eyes; reading each other's soul.
Vladimir and Stefan were having a very awkward conversation. They were telling each other thank you for being there for all of this time and it was a pleasure knowing you ect. However they didn't seem very comfortable discussing the subject. They were looking at the floor, fidgeting, rubbing the back of their necks and clearing their throats a lot.
Aro was talking his brothers through what they were going to do if certain circumstances arose. Marcus looked relived and Caius looked... well... pissed actually. It was the first time I'd ever seen any kind of emotion on Marcus's face ever.
Jane and Alec were assuring each other that they are better than any number of vampires alone and could defeat an army if they wanted to. They both seemed sceptical.
I looked up to my favourite face last. Making sure this memory would be the most vivid. Even though I had photographic memory, every time I looked at his face it was as if it was for the first time. He was so beautiful. His blonde curls falling into his eyes. He lifted one white sparkling hand and tucked them behind his ear. The sun coming beaming through the glass roofing was brilliantly bouncing off of his skin, emphasizing how painfully beautiful he was. His caramel eyes were melting into mine, like two seas of lava crashing into each other, and then flowing together as one. He released my hand and brought both of his up to cradle my face tightly. His eyebrows pulled together in stress and if he were able to cry, I know for definite he could have done.
"I love you." He said in an agonized but sure stern voice, like it was an order.
"I thought you thought that this wasn't a big deal." I tried teasing but my voice was hoarse and it didn't come out right, I didn't care.
"I have a very bad feeling. I feel like something terrible is going to happen." His voice cracked.
"Don't be silly. Everything will be fine." I think I was trying to assure myself more than I was trying to assure him.
"I love you." He repeated again, the same stern voice as before.
"I love you too." I whispered and he crushed his lips to mine fiercely. It was hard and furious and full of passion. It felt too intimate to be doing in front of people but I didn't care. I didn't care that I was about to die. I didn't care that it was the end of the world as we know it. I didn't care that god knows how many vampires were only seconds away from us, their bloodlust in overdrive. All I cared about was the man whose lips were crushing mine.
At that moment the heavy wooden doors swung open and crashed against the marble walls. Jasper let go of me to pull me behind him. He kept a firm grip on my arm to remind himself that I was still there. I wriggled free and wrapped my arms around his; kissing his bicep lightly.
"I do believe that that was the longest journey I have every taken." A deep man's voice said. It had a very strong accent in it too that sent a chill down my side.
"I agree. Next time we should get them to come to us." Another man said. He too had a strong ancient. I shuddered.
Laughter boomed around the room like a ball bouncing off of the walls. I couldn't place how many people were laughing. It could have been 20 or it could have been 200.
"Right you are my friend! Right you are!"
"Good morning, my friends!" Aro said clapping his hands together once and stepping towards the vampires.
I peak around to see how many there are. THERE ARE 29!
There are just 24 of us in the room including Aro, Marcus and Caius's guards!
I might as well start praying now!
The leader of the clan - who must have been this mysterious Victor Scar – looked exactly like the man in my vision of Jasper bowing. I head Edward growl as he too saw the truth in my thoughts.He had a stubbly beard and shoulder length curly black hair. He wore an 18th century black suit with a crimson waistcoat and matching handkerchief in his pocked shaped into two triangles.
"Ah now, Aro. I would not be calling us friends exactly." A vicious grin spread across his face like a deadly virus. "Please, let me introduce myself. I must still maintain my manners." He put his right hand on his chest "My name is Victor Scar," - gesturing to a tall man with ginger short cropped hair with alarmingly pale skin dressed in similar clothes to Victor but all plain black – "This is one of my personal body guards, Draven Rain." The ginger vampire, Draven Rain, nodded. And then Victor gestured to a man on his right. He was bald and had many scars all over his face and head just like Jasper. He was very muscular, even more than Emmett. He wore the same clothes as Draven Rain. "This is my other personal body guard, Kyrian Wailcurse." He too nodded. Both his and Kyrian Wailcurse's faces wore solemn. "And these," He said, speaking a lot louder and raising his hands up in the air pointing two crimson painted thumbnails back behind him to the 26 vampires dressed in identical grey 18th century suits. "These are a handful of my followers, my friends, my allies." He dropped his arms down to his sides and smiled smugly.
Aro smiled nervously. "It's nice to meet you." He said hoarsely.
The entire army of vampires remained emotionless, their piercing red eyes shooting into specific individuals like bullets. Victor was smiling a grin so intimidating it made me want to run and hide. Run at vampire speed and hide.
Sorry about the cliff hanger, I thought this chapter was getting too long and it was only going to double in size. DON'T HATE ME! If I can I will upload another one tomorrow, if not, I will make sure I have two chapters at least uploaded next weekend for you. I am really sorry about not being able to upload the rest of the week.
