Chapter 11 Bad Dog
It had been months and months since Naru had first come to the Volturi castle. Every other day she killed humans and vampires alike each time getting better and better gifts from Aro. Soon Naru was in a huge room silk pillows and blankets, furs and much more. She started to change too her eyes were blood red her fur now black as night the only white she had was on her muzzle, legs, tips of her ears and tail. She never even phased to human form anymore it was to coax the pain from her human life. She even got enough power from Aro where she could sit with him in the grand hall when he had meeting. She even wore the Volturi seal around her neck not the shock collar anymore. Things were completely different for the young wolf the only affection she ever got was from Aro and her care taker who was a young man, a human. Ehno which meant protector which he was hers. He cleaned her fur and wounds after fights, feed her and made sure she didn't go crazy from isolation. What made her wonder was why they would let a human into the castle without killing them but she didn't mind she liked his company.
Naru was lying in her room which still had a cage door to keep people safe. She was like a rabid dog, vicious. She heard Ehno coming down the hallway he wasn't every good at sneaking around but she was a wolf. Ehno came in and greeted Naru though she couldn't speak to him.
"Aro has some special visitors today so he wants you to stay here. You have a fight tomorrow so he said you should rest up." Ehno said sitting next to the giant wolf. She made him nervous he saw how she ripped apart people limb from limb. But he knew she'd never go after him, not once did she ever try. Naru looked at him and sensed his fear and walked away to the door. She liked when it was open she would look out the cage bars and watch the people walk by, she made them all nervous. An hour later Naru woke up from a nap she looked and Ehno was sleeping at well. Naru sniffed the hair something was coming towards her, it was something familiar. She saw three pale skinned figures coming towards her all had golden eyes they were almost beautiful. Naru got up as they got closer and she started to growl which woke Ehno up.
"Naru!" he said her fur was standing up she was in attack mode. She ignored his words she wanted to attack. They finally got close to the caged room and Naru went crazy her growls echoed through the stone walled hall ways. Ehno tried to pull Naru back in which she almost bit him. He was scared for his life now but was relieved to see Aro rushing to the cage.
"GET AWAY FROM HER!" his strong voice yelled as he reached them. "She obviously doesn't like you so please step away." He said motioning the away from the door. He looked at Naru who was walking towards the back for the room in which Ehno rushed out fast his heart beating a mile a minute.
"Aro, why are you keeping a were-wolf?" Edward asked peaking into the cage again.
"For sport why else would I be keeping one?" Aro laughed and motioned the three vampires to follow.
"What do you mean?" Bella spoke her voice soft.
"She kills unwanted guest and bad bad vampires." He looked down at the new little vampire Bella.
That night Edward, Alice, and Bella thought of a plan to get Naru got. Edward kept flashing on how she looked. She wasn't the same anymore when he read her mind it was like she wasn't there. All she could think about was the fight not Jacob, not trying to escape. Though Edward didn't like Naru he was worried that she would never be the same again. She wasn't going to be what Jacob loved. Alice sat there trying to paint a future but it was hard Naru was part of the pack so she really couldn't see anything but she knew the perfect person to help them. Because they were staying in the Volturi castle Edward and Alice headed down to Naru's cage looking for Ehno. They dared not open the door to Naru's cage incase she tried to attack them again. They searched the many rooms around her but to no avail found no Ehno. Once they were going to leave he stepped out of her room and was face to face with Edward.
"You need to help us." Alice said from behind her brother.
"With?" Ehno asked he was scared.
"Naru… we need to get her out of here. Her pack misses her, and we know you want to help her." Edward said softly looking around making sure no one heard.
"How?" Ehno said he wasn't much for words.
"Is there any time she is in her human form?" Alice asked.
"Yeah after a fight I have to sedate her to clean her up and tend to her wounds." Ehno said catching on to their plan quickly.
"Okay once she's out two of us will come get her but you have to make it like she escaped." Edward said but turned when he heard footsteps coming toward them.
"Come this way…" Ehno motioned them to follow he unlocked a door and stepped inside with the two vampires. They walked into a small room with a small bed a window and book shelf filled with hundreds of books.
"Aro come to check on her every once in awhile during the night. She is his pride and joy since she "won" her first fight she learned quickly to obey him which she was soon brainwashed. I've been keeping this for her when she would be her normal human self but every time I give it to her it's thrown away." Ehno walked over to his book shelf and grabbed the bracelet Jacob made for her.
"This use to be her everything in till about a month ago, I honestly think she lost all hope." He placed the bracelet into Alice's open hand and she examined it.
"What time is the fight?" Edward asked his sister was still looking at the charms. It almost reminded her of the one Bella got but this one had much more detail.
"It should be at noon. Tomorrow she's going up against Vampires that have gone against Aro. So she will have a tuff fight in the morning." Ehno sat on the floor his back against the book shelf. "Will you take me with you please." He said his mind lost in the years he's been here.
"Why?" Alice asked looking down at him.
"I've been in this castle since I was 10 and now I'm 16 years old. I've been counting down the day in till they either bleed me dry or feed me to Naru and I don't want to die." Ehno said letting out a huge sigh. Edward nodded and agreed to take Ehno with them. Alice and Edward started to leave the room.
"Have whoever you want to take her already in her room before we get there." Ehno said opened the door for them.
"It will be Bella and I while Alice talks to Aro." Edward said and with that they left and Ehno went to check on Naru. As he walked in he noticed her sleeping and he got nervous. He didn't want to wake her afraid she wouldn't recognize him and attack. He slowly closed the door behind him and looked to his left. There was a metal box with a huge lock on it. He searched his pockets and finally pulled out a very old looking metal key and had a wolf head at the end. He up the key into the lock and with a loud click the latch opened. Sitting inside the box was Naru's shock collar; Ehno was going to need it to keep the Cullen's safe. He locked the box again and headed out the door. He was scared that things weren't going to work that Naru would break from her collar and kill everyone. He went back into his room and locked the door but knew it wasn't going to stop a vampire.
Jacob was lying on Naru's bed at Sam's with Kimi, he was thinking about when she was going to come home. Things were different and weird due to the fact Bella was now a mother to Renesmee who he was oddly attracted to. Not romantically but there was something about her. He knew she had feelings for him but no one told her about Naru and he needed too soon because he wasn't sure what Naru or Renesmee was going to do. He let out a sigh his head was clouded and his heart was confused. Naru was going to be coming home in two day if the Cullen's were successful. He rolled over and looked at Naru's cell phone and called Bella, but there was no answer. He wanted to know how Naru was doing if they saw her or not. He called on last time and was happy when he heard Bella answer.
"Hello" Bella said her voice low.
"Bella its Jacob." He said looking at Kimi and petting her head.
"You're calling about Naru?" she asked but knew what the answer was.
"Have you seen her?" he asked but heard the phone being passed.
"Jacob Naru's… She's fine" Edward said he was lying he couldn't tell him the truth.
"Don't like to me please what's wrong with her?" Jacob said he knew he was lying something in his voice told him. Plus his connection with Naru felt broken.
"Jacob… she isn't the same person anymore… well she isn't even a person she's been in her wolf form for so long now I can't even reach her real thoughts." Edward tried to say it in a way that wouldn't completely crush Jake. There was a pause between the two.
"She doesn't even look like the same wolf, but we are still bringing her back. I'm not sure how she will react but tell the pack to be on guard." With that Edward said nothing more and there was more of a long pause. Jacob said thanks and hung up his fears came true they changed his Naru.
