So...this chapter is basically the shit hitting the fan and splattering all over the walls! I don't own Twilight or it's characters! I can't remember if I said that already or not, so here it is now! Feel free to leave a review! I just love predictions!
Renesmee
I've been back on my feet for about three weeks now. Healing was hell though. There was the itching from the wounds and then the bad dreams I had in the final stages of healing, which grandpa says are the side effects of having their bacteria in my system. I'm okay now though, and I've been making some changes. First I managed to convince Emmett to come with me to Forks and show me where he and Jasper put the bodies of the dead werewolves. They didn't go back to mortal form afterwards, must have something to do with their evolution. They were also burnt. But I was able to get what I needed, teeth and claws. I figured that these would be strong enough to penetrate the skin of other children of the moon. Of course while I was there I visited the pack and my grandpa Charlie and Sue. Everyone was doing well and Jacob jr is walking now. Though, barely. I'd like to say he's stumbling.
When I got back to Ithaca I was able to split the teeth and claws... I dipped them in cyanide and elephant tranquilizers. I had to get those ingredients from some extremely shady characters. I think I might have ventured into the black market, but it doesn't matter. It's not like I'm officially in the system anyway. Anyway, after coating the teeth and claws in that mixture, which I handled with care, I wrapped them around exploding arrowheads with cloth soaked in gasoline. Over a thousand of these things and a bow and arrow. I've gotten good. I practice. In fact when I was testing one of my creations it not only penetrated a tree that was at least two hundred years old, it blew it all to pieces. My family thought lightning struck it at first, but my father knew better, and that was when I got caught. He fussed on me, everyone fussed on me, even Alec. They all still expect me to hide when there is another attack, but I won't. I'll fight again, and this time I won't end up with the short end of the stick.
Alec was outside patrolling. I decided to sneak up on him. At least I tried to. I went to pounce on him and he slammed me onto the ground, making dust fly up around me.
"How'd you know I was coming," I asked.
"How would I not know, with your loud footsteps, beating heart, and unique scent. You'd be a trackers wet dream."
"Well...it's not fair. You sneak on me all the time and I never notice you."
"It's not my fault you're inattentive," he said with a smirk.
"Inattentive! You know what Volturi, I'm sick of you," I said as I socked him in the arm. He just stared at me with a smile.
"Was that supposed to hurt, or something," he asked.
"Yes, it was... it didn't?"
"It had all the impact of you trying to bludgeon me with a marshmallow."
"You know what Alec, you think you're so tough! I could kick your ass anytime, anyday. Just name it!"
"Okay... when I'm done patrolling."
"You've got it...bub."
I stepped closer to him and he pulled me into a kiss that made me forget about the competitive attitude I picked up from my uncles, it made me forget we could be attacked at any moment and it made me forget about the fact that we were living in this new, strange house and that I desperately missed Forks. It especially made me forget about the fact that in about five months, Alec will be gone to who knows where!
"Go back inside," he said. "You're distracting me and I need to be fully alert."
After stealing one more kiss I went inside, saddened by our kiss and my thoughts. I decided to go to my room. Everyone seemed to be paired off. All of the couples... having couple time. Well, all except Dot and Betty who were having mother daughter time. They are staying with us, which I love. I like learning about them and talking to them. Dot and I have become friends. Joe, on the other hand was taken by Betty's father. She was crying when he departed and she bid him farewell, so I can only guess that he's going to be killed for betraying his race.
When I got to my room I lay in the darkness and i found myself drifting off to sleep. For tonight, at least, I hope there's no attack. My bed is too comfortable to get up and whoop ass.
Alec
The darkness surrounds me like a blanket. It has been my blanket for a thousand years. I bath in it, I breath it. I see and hear in it. Darkness is my oxygen. I stood there listening for any signs of impending attack. There were none, like the last few weeks, however I know this is just the calm before the storm.
While I didn't hear paws padding along the ground, I did hear fast, heavy footsteps and I smelled a familiar scent. So I intercepted it. Jumping onto the traveler and getting him in a headlock. It was Demetri, probably still on that mission to track down and report on the locations of Children of the Moon.
"Alec..."
"Hello Demetri."
"Funny seeing you here... hey, I didn't get to chat with you the other week. Tell me about your new squeeze? What'd she grow up to look like?"
"She's beautiful and I love her and that's all you need to know."
"And she's the reason you were talking back to Aro?"
"No... I was talking back to Aro for other reasons. He simply thinks Renesmee is the main factor."
"You speak like a man going AWOL."
"Alec, don't be stupid."
"Demetri I'm tired or being in the Volturi. I need a change of pace."
"Well you can work with Heidi to gather food or something, surely, just don't sign your own death certificate."
"You don't understand Demetri... I want freedom."
"Keep thinking like this and freedom you shall attain. You ashes will be freed along the ocean."
"If death stalks me because of my decision, then let it come. What did you find out about the children of the moon?"
"They are cognizant as you thought, and they aren't close to here. The possibility of attack on the Cullens shouldn't be an issue tonight, at least.
Brother are you sure your decision is made?"
"Yes. I know you'll have to show Aro your thoughts and I think it's best that he know."
"You're my best friend Alec..."
"And you're mine Demetri, but I have to do this. Even if I die I cannot go back and be his slave."
Demetri nodded, patted me on the shoulder and then disappeared into the night. Things were quiet for only a second before I heard a howl in the distance. The Cullens, along with Betty and Dot, stood at my side. Renesmee included in the bunch, with her weapons.
"Renesmee, leave...now," said Edward, "Get as far away as you can."
"Dad..."
"Renesmee... go," yelled Bella.
Everyone hugged her, including me as the smell of wolf started to invade my senses. Renesmee got out of sight, the car started up and the sound faded away as she left to go to safety.
"There are hundreds," said Edward.
"We can take them," said Emmett. I like his attitude, always prepared for a fight to the death. Even when it was thought that we would fight them,
Emmett stood fearless. I wouldn't be surprised if his human life ended as a result of being mauled by some huge animal he had no business provoking.
They came suddenly after another howl in the distance. I was ripping, tearing, biting into their skin to rip their throats apart. It was battle. One that I haven't had in at least a century. The Volturi usually invade and destroy, there isn't much of a fight, but there is today. The multitude of them kept coming. I was fighting four at once, there was no time to use my power. Strength would have to do. Though the bites hurt the pain was temporary compared to the overwhelming euphoria I felt every time I killed one and ended up with it's blood on my hands.
Renesmee
They thought I left but I couldn't. I could smell the werewolves through the car. Hundreds of them, maybe even close to a thousand. I have to help my family! So,at the risk of being killed I parked the car and I climbed a tree that the children of the moon wouldn't be able to push down, climb, or jump into, and I started my attack from afar. There was one about to attack Alice from behind. I shot it, right in the chest and it exploded into a million pieces. For a second the battle halted as everyone looked around. I saw my father's lips mutter my name with a tiny smirk as it started up again. My family was kicking ass, and I was able to too, killing any children of the moon coming to the battle. Pop pop pop and the wet sound of organs and body parts falling from the air, onto the forest floor. The vultures, ants and other creatures would have a feast for days. A good meal indeed. Blood from their exploding bodies ended up splattering on me, like a red mist. I was blowing them sky high, after all so that shouldn't surprise me.
It seemed like hours that I was in that tree, shooting and watching until it was finally over. Rosalie killed the last one and all others would have retreated if I hadn't shot them already. I hopped from the tree, preparing to run to my family when I was caught by the neck, and my mouth covered. I kicked and screamed, able to free myself briefly enough to run a few paces and scream like a banshee. I happened to look back to see that the vampire trying to capture me was Demetri. I could feel myself getting close. I just knew my family was running towards me, but neither of us were fast enough. Demetri punched me and everything went black.
Alec
We arrived to where Renesmee had been. From where she screamed out. Her bow and arrows were still there and so was her scent, along with Demetri's. I should have known. We followed after the scent until it led to a dead end, a river. He was gone back to Volterra with Renesmee.
"Fuck!"
"You didn't think he was up to anything," asked Edward.
"No! He's my best friend Edward, why would I suspect him! I thought he was tracking the werewolves!"
"What are you saying," asked Bella, Alice holding onto her waist to support her.
"I'm saying that... I'll have to go retrieve her, if I can."
"If you can," said Edward. "What the hell does that mean, and why are you wasting time?"
In the middle of the very unbelievable conversation a random child of the moon appeared. Dot handled it, ripping the animal's arm off and Betty paralyzed it, that was the least of my worries until it started to turn back to human.
"Don't kill me, please!," said the man beneath the fur.
"Why shouldn't we kill you," asked Betty.
"It's not my fault... the..."
"Are you fucking kidding me," yelled Edward. "Are they out of their motherfucking minds?"
"What," I asked.
"Aro's been busy. He knew about the children of the moon... now that they are cognizant he's controlling them! They aren't just here but he sent packs of them to attack all covens that were there that day in the meadow."
"Of course, he was embarrassed...we all were but as the leader of the Volturi it was a blow to him, more than the rest of us."
"It doesn't make sense though... why would Renesmee be kidnapped," asked Rosalie.
"He wants revenge, but he also still wants Edward, and Alice, and Bella... he often expressed how great their powers would be, if only they would become permanent members. I thought nothing of it. He mentioned nothing of this, then again my thoughts before I left might have deemed me untrustworthy of knowledge of his plan."
"Well? What do we do," asked Esme.
"I'll go..." said Edward. "Trade myself for Renesmee's return."
"Son, you can't. Remember what you stand for," said Carlisle.
"I know, but I have to get my daughter back."
"We'll go too," said Alice as she and Bella stepped forward.
"We'll all go," said Carlisle.
"I wonder if our old friends will be willing to assist this time," asked Esme.
"There's only one way to find out," said Emmett.
"Three days and then we'll meet at Rome with whoever will fight with us. It's time this is settled, once and for all. It's not just about Renesmee... it's about freedom," said Carlisle.
I sat in the darkness, thinking of a plan while everybody started making preparations for where they would go, when all of the sudden the Denali coven showed up. Their clothes tattered, they were all covered in blood, and ash, but intact. Edward and Carlisle came out.
"We were attacked by children of the moon, they even set fire to our house," said Eleazar.
"We killed them all though, not one escaped, we see you've had a similar struggle," she said as she looked back to Jasper, who was burning the dead bodies.
"We know, you were attacked" said Carlisle. "Aro has been busy. We got a lone wolf to tell us his plan before he bled to death. We were about to pay you a visit. We're going to Volterra, attack them on their own turf."
"Then you are going to Italy to die," said Eleazar.
"No, they aren't," I said. "Not with me."
Kate hissed, "So it's true."
"What an interesting discovery," said Eleazar
"Alec is a friend," said Edward. "He's leaving the Volturi and he helped up against the children of the moon tonight."
"Well... how are we staging the revolution," asked Garrett.
Renesmee
I woke up in an airplane. It was a private plane, and I was chained down. The chains weren't regular sized ones, I could break free from those without much effort, but these were hard to even move around in. It felt like I was being squeezed to death!
"Moving won't make it better," said Demetri from a seat facing me.
"Let me go!"
"I'm afraid I can't do that, sweetheart. My, how you struggled and you ran though, huh? Wouldn't have done you any good. I always find what I'm looking for."
"Why are you doing this," I asked.
"I'm not doing this, but an answer to your question lies within mommy, daddy, auntie, and your newfound mate. Never took Alec for the stupid type, but you never can tell. Can't say I blame him for taking a poke though, you are a pretty little thing."
He caressed my face and I bit his index finger, taking off the tip and spitting it into his face, right between his eyes.
"You fucking bitch!"
There was a loud THWACK and a wave of immense pain... and I was on the floor of the plane with blood coming from a busted lip and my nose. Being in the chains didn't make it any better. I watched as he reapplied his finger, letting the venom heal it and he came over to me, pulling my hair and sitting me up. I didn't want to yell, it'd be what he wants. He grabbed me by the hair to tilt my head up as he placed his other hand on my cheeks, squeezing my face so hard I thought my skull would crack in half. He kissed me, sucking the blood from my busted lip.
"Oh god... the fear is rolling off you, it smells so sweet and your blood tastes sweeter. Count yourself lucky that Aro wants you alive, Renesmee..." Then a smile spread across his face. "Alive, but he didn't say untouched."
He made a mistake by only binding my arms. My legs were free so I kneed him in the balls, I kicked him in the head too, until he caught my foot, biting my leg until my blood flowed out like I was a faucet.
"Make it hurt you say? Okay... I'll make it hurt," he said
"Demetri," said a woman with blue contacts and a red dress, from the cockpit.
"Yes Heidi," answered Demetri.
"Leave the girl alone. At the rate you're going she'll die before we reach home. She's got fight, so surely you know she won't succumb to your terrible advances."
"Okay, no more advances."
He sat me back in the seat and he caressed my face again, this time a safe distance from my mouth. He placed disgusting kisses on my neck while he hands cupped my core.
"Your time is short anyway whore, I'm doing you a service by providing you one last moment of pleasure."
"Demetri... come, I have something to show you," said Heidi. I don't know her and I don't know if she really has something to show him or not, but I'm glad she's here to get him away from me, to get his hands off of me. I feel dirty and nasty. He touched me and I couldn't do anything about it. I'm scared... I'm going to die, Demetri's said it. I'm going to die and I didn't get to say goodbye properly to anyone. How could a moment go from victorious and relieved to utterly horrible and damning?
