Sookie
"Victoria?" Bill questioned, he turned to Eric. "Isn't she…" Victoria interrupted again, "Yes, I am. That is why I'm here. You, you're going to help me." She addressed towards me. I didn't like where this was going, not in anyway.
"What do you want?" I asked trying to keep direct contact with the red haired woman; she brings fear into me like I've never felt before. "Revenge." She whispered. She curled her lips, and bit down. "A few years ago, Edward killed my lover, my mate and now it's time to return the favor." Bella! No, I wouldn't help with hurting her; I need to get out of here. "I want you to find out every weakness they have from that little priss Bella Swan." I stood up, trying to keep my guard up. "Why should I help you? I won't help you!"
Victoria was quickly to her feet, we were face to face. "You will help, or you'll end up like your weak grandmother!" I froze. She killed her, she killed the only family who was like a mother to me. "You BITCH! You killed my grandmother!" I stepped to punch her but Victoria grabbed my throat and smacked me down to the table. Bill and Eric both stood up, I could see Eric shaking his head "no" to Bill. "Now listen to me you dirty little blond, I didn't kill her but I would've liked to. One of my pets ended up killing her thinking it was Bella, and by the look of it she died quickly so you should be thankful, now behave. OK?" I nodded my head as best as I could.
She released me, and I coughed. "Bill, I want you to send Sookie to Italy, to see the Volturi. Victoria has called upon them already and is expecting Sookie and you." Bill came to my side. What's the Volturi? Victoria was on Eric, smiling towards me. I hate her, and I want to stake her through the heart. After a long moment of silence and nothing but the metal music in the background, Bill nodded his head. "Sookie, we need to depart." What was going on?
"Eric, wait, when I was in Bella's head I saw the image of Edward but it wasn't him I know that, but who was it then?" Eric took a quick glance to Victoria than back towards me. "An old friend. That's all."
Bill and I left Fangtasia, driving off into the night, on our way to the airport, and off to see the Volturi.
Bella
Our plane had taken flight about an hour ago, and so far it's been a smooth ride. Esme told what was happening, how there was going to be a battle very soon with the different breeds of vampires. At first I didn't understand, but she explained everything to me.
"I don't get it though, why go to battle? Can't they settle this in some vampire court, and why do we have to be involved?" I questioned Esme as best I could, hoping to get a least one answer out of her.
"I'm sorry to say this but this is how they settle things in the vampire court, and I don't know why are being called into this. I wish I knew." Just a few more hours, and we were out of the airport into yet another fast vehicle. We drove our way to what I assume would be our final doom. It was there in Italy, where I saw their palace. The Volturi were waiting for me, for us, and this was not going to be pleasant.
Esme lead me through the corridors that feel all too familiar to me, and they will forever haunt me. "Your late" A woman greeted us leading us to the royalty of the vampires. Those big doors give me the creeps, even now that I know I'll probably won't walk out of them alive. When the two of us arrived inside it was room full of faces I knew. Carlisle, Rosalie, Alice, Emmett, Jasper, and of course Edward were all there to see me enter the room with my head down. I ran over to Edward, giving him a big hug and I never wanted to let go.
"Enough of these idiotic emotions!" Marcus roar, I fear him less out of all the Volturi members. The Three of them and walked towards us. "You should know why you are all here. Betrayal has fallen upon the vampires and this must be settled." Marcus spoke again, this time a bit colder.
"What happened to the vampires revealing themselves isn't our fault! The Cullens have done nothing." I was making sure to try and stand strong. Aro came down towards me, slipping his hands under my chin so our eyes would meet. "Oh, we were not talking of that betrayal. We were talking about the betrayal of your lover killing another vampire. To protect his little pet." I moved my head away from his hands. "I'm no one's pet!" He just grinned at me. "It does matter what you are."
"Leave her alone!" Jasper spoke up. Aro turned to look at him. "You are usually the quiet one, keep it that way." He turned back to me. "That vampire your lover had killed was just anybody you know, he happened to be my son. Now a choice has to be made." He gave that grin again. "You choose, will you and Edward die tonight, or will it be them?" He signaled one of the guards to open a door. Two guards threw in front of the tied up Sookie Stackhouse and the silver bound Bill Compton.
