"I think it's time for you to make your dramatic exit." The whisper echoed across the room.
I hissed at the figure, wanting to attack it. But my practical side told me he could beat me in a fight out of pure skills. I considered calling for help, but Felix would be here soon enough and help me take this guy down.
The guy took down the hood, revealing shaggy brown hair and red eyes that almost had a tint of gold in them. I took a step back, trying to figure out where I knew him from. His expression turned amused as he watched my internal struggle.
"What are you doing here?" I finally managed to growl. Not my fiercest growl ever, but I had a feeling nothing could intimidate this guy.
He took a step forward. "Don't you listen? I'm gonna help you make a dramatic escape." He smiled, a very cute smile, I had to admit.
I glared at him. "What makes you think that I would want to go with you? What's stopping me from attacking you or calling the guards. I'm sure Alec would love to fight with you."
He narrowed his eyes. "You haven't called the guards or attacked me yet, even when you didn't know me…or do you know me?" He challenged. "Besides, you don't belong here. You know you don't. There's always something deep inside of you whispering that you belong to a different life, one that doesn't rely on brutal killings."
I started shaking my head before he was done speaking. "I do belong here. This has been my whole life." I argued, although there was a small part inside of me screaming at me to listen to him.
He stared at me, waiting for me to comprehend something. When I didn't, he sighed and moved towards the door again. "Okay, so you say you belong here. Then why do you feel like Felix isn't the one you should be holding and that you sometimes think that the Volturi are too harsh and unbending?" He was challenging the smallest part of me to come out and I didn't like it. "Beside, this wasn't your entire life. You've only been a vampire for five years. What about your life before you became a vampire? You think that you simply were born eighteen years old?"
"I…I…ugh!" I stuttered, frustrated. He grinned smugly.
"So you want to find out about your life before you were a vampire? The only way to figure out everything is to follow me. Will you do it?" He held out his hand, offering me a chance to escape and find out my past.
I hesitated. The Volturi was all I had ever known, but I hadn't really fit in. This could all just be a trap. But I wanted to know everything that was kept secret from me. I wanted to find out who I was.
I timidly put my hand in his and let him lead me outside. He quickly pulled up our hoods with a single stroke of his hand and we walked through the hallways with little notice from anyone.
That was before Felix saw me holding hands with the strange vampire.
"Bella?" He asked, angry. "What are you doing?"
The man stopped and looked at me. When I didn't say or do anything, he hit Felix, sending him sprawling across the room. Felix hit the wall with a loud thump and the man glanced back at me. "I think we should hurry up our exit a little bit. Hop onto my back, it'll be faster that way." I scurried onto his back and he ran. I glanced back and noticed that a group of vampires were after us, with Felix in the lead.
"Um, we have a little problem. They're kinda chasing after us."
The man laughed, a rich deep laugh that was amazing. "Did you expect anything less? You're a favorite of Aro, they're bound to want you back. But don't worry; we have back up to make them lose the trail."
I trusted him, for some strange reason. So I let him carry me further and further away from the Volturi, into the place that I had never been to.
I prolly cudve gone farther, but I wasn't sure wat to have happen nxt. So itll b in the nxt chapter. & amazingly 'nuf this is all I have 2 say. –le gasp- I no it's a major shocker. Let me no wat u think. :)
