As I sit on my bed I wonder, 'Why am I apart of this, why does Demi want me? I am nothing, I am not good for anything.' I pause in my thoughts, 'I'm worthless.'
I get up and wonder out of my room and through the endless maze of hallways in the castle, lost in my thoughts. I wind up in Didyme's wondrous library. I find a
very comfortable chair in a lost corner and just sit to think out my situation.
'I love Demi already, but I'm so lost in my own heartbreak that I have no idea what to do with that love.' I sigh, I know I need help with this and I know I can talk to
anyone in my new family, but Marcus especially comes to mind. 'I hope Marcus isn't busy, or maybe I can just train and avoid the whole situation.' As that sounds like
a better idea I head to the training grounds to see if anyone is there to help. Unfortunately the training ground is deserted so I sit in the middle of the enormous field
and concentrate on trying to expand my shield.
I search around in my mind until I feel something I've never felt before, It's like an elastic band, I go to push it out, but it was a very hard thing to do. I keep at it
though and what seemed like a very short time later I open my eyes and see a red translucent bubble around me.
I hear people clapping in the background and it causes my shield to snap back into place as I turn around to see everyone in the castle watching me. I turn my head
away shyly, "That was simply wonderful Isabella" Aro said
"You stretched your shield to expand at least 5 feet away from you, I wonder how far you could stretch it with more training."
I smile at him and then one of the stupid vampires that I hate and decided to speak up, "Great job love." I growl heatedly at him, "I have already told you stupid, I
am not your love, I am not your anything. Demetri is my mate. I do not want you, I do not love you, in fact, you deserve a fate worse than death." My shield snapped
out as if to protect me and sent Edward flying straight into the Castle wall, almost destroying it completely. "Edward, looks like you have a wall to fix, if you'll excuse
me Aro, I'd like to go back to my rooms now."
"Certainly Isabella, also, Demetri should be back home shortly, in case you need to talk to him about anything." He chuckled and I smiled at him and nodded, heading
back into the castle's labyrinth of halls back to my rooms.
"Izzy, you're blushing!" Jane says and my eyes grow wide.
I wonder what else I can do, I think of myself as human and out of nowhere I hear and feel my heart start beating again and I gasp and open my eyes which causes
everyone else to gasp as well.
"Izzy, your eyes are brown again." Jane states.
Hmm seems I can return to my human form.

My mate has got to be the most beautiful person, human or vampire, in existence. I just wish she would open herself to me as her mate. I understand that she's
having a hard time dealing with everything, I just wish she would let me help her.
'Right, well, I need to focus on this mission.' I think as I continue to track this rogue vampire for Aro. 'This is obnoxious. I am newly mated, but because my mate
hasn't excepted me yet I'm being sent on this stupid pointless mission.'
I chase the vampire for maybe 5 more miles before I grab his ankles and trip him onto the ground. I decapitate him and tear him apart before bagging him up in
duffle bags and running back to my truck.
(15 minutes later)
Now that I have this fuck-head loaded up and ready to go I get into the drivers seat and head back to the Volturi's private jet to head home. To get back to my
Isabella.
(5 hours later)
I finally land the plane at the airport. I grab the bags and take it to the SUV that was waiting for me on the strip where I landed, I loaded the bags then head home,
the pull in my chest easing slowly the closer I get to the castle, the closer I get to my home, my mate, Isabella.
As I start my long endless journey home, I receive a phone call from Aro.
Demetri: Demetri speaking.
Aro: Yes Demetri, I've called to give you some wonderful news about your mate.
Demetri: What news Aro?
Aro: Your mate has already begun to expand her gifts, and yes I mean gifts as in more than one. I want to have Eleazar come here to see what gifts she possesses,
if that's okay with you of course?
Demetri: Of course it's okay with me Aro, but don't you think you should check with Izzy to see if she's okay with it? Not that she won't be, but she won't like us
making choices for her either, it's always safer just to ask her yourself.
Aro: Of course you're right Demetri, I will check with her as well before I make the call. I've got to tell you Demetri, she has got to be the most powerful vampire I've
ever seen.
Demetri: There was never a doubt in my mind Aro, have a nice day, I'll be there in a few hours.
Aro: Goodbye.
Demetri: Bye.

I stand in my quarters on the ornate balcony that over looks the training field, watching our newest member just sitting on the field. 'I wonder why she's meditating?'
I ask myself when I notice a red glow emanating from her body. As I watch this shield thing slowly expand from her body until there was a bubble around her. I jump
from my perch and slowly walk toward her to get a better view.
Standing there for a minute just watching this bubble expand even further still, I began to notice all of guard, really everyone in the castle come to watch, all of them
standing behind me and creating a crescent around her.
Everyone started cheering loudly it causes the shield to retract into her body She turned her head and finally noticed the rest of us cheering her on. She looked away
as if embarrassed, "That was simply wonderful Isabella" I praised
I began to compliment Isabella "You stretched your shield to expand at least 5 feet away from you, I wonder how far you could stretch it with more training."
She smiled at me and then Carlisle's insufferable offspring decided to speak up, "Great job love." She growled indignantly at him, "I have already told you stupid, I
am not your love, I am not your anything. Demetri is my mate. I do not want you, I do not love you, in fact, you deserve a fate worse than death." Her shield blows
out and sent Edward soaring directly into the Castle wall, almost wrecking it completely. "Edward, looks like you have a wall to fix, if you'll excuse me Aro, I'd like to
go back to my rooms now."
I stand there astounded for a second before I answered her.
"Certainly Isabella, also, Demetri should be back home shortly, in case you need to talk to him about anything."
She ran out of the training field back into the castle leaving the Cullen's once again stuck on stupid, "Boy, I believe Isabella told you to do something and I suggest
you do it before you end up getting punished by Isabella once again. Carlisle, Keep your son in check before he loses his head or ends up ash. I could really care
less." I glare at them before running back to the castle and jumping back onto my Balcony to make a phone call to the girls mate.
I pick up the phone and dial out Demetri's number.
Demetri: Demetri speaking.
Aro: Yes Demetri, I've called to give you some wonderful news about your mate.
Demetri: What news Aro?
Aro: Your mate has already begun to expand her gifts, and yes I mean gifts as in more than one. I want to have Eleazar come here to see what gifts she possesses,
if that's okay with you of course?
Demetri: Of course it's okay with me Aro, but don't you think you should check with Izzy to see if she's okay with it? Not that she won't be, but she won't like us
making choices for her either, it's always safer just to ask her yourself.
Aro: Of course you're right Demetri, I will check with her as well before I make the call. I've got to tell you Demetri, she has got to be the most powerful vampire I've
ever seen.
Demetri: There was never a doubt in my mind Aro, have a nice day, I'll be there in a few hours.
Aro: Goodbye.
Demetri: Bye.
I hang up the phone, 'Volterra has certainly grown far more entertaining since Isabella arrived here.' I pause my thoughts, 'Even Marcus seems more lively.'
