A/N sorry for the long wait, real life's getting in the way.
"What makes you think that the death of Chelsea would end our position in the Volturi. Chelsea is a wonderful vampire, but I don't see your point."
"Chelsea can manipulate the bonds between people. I have seen her do it and it makes her the key to your position amongst your clan."
Seeing that not only Aro, but everyone else was confused, I explained the whole plan, careful not to loosen my grip on the red-eyed vampire's neck.
"I can shield myself and other people. I use my powers on them during such moments. Should I die, everyone I'm shielding will suddenly be vulnerable, you know that. Chelsea's powers work even when she's not there, they're permanent. That stops when she dies."
His eyes widened long enough for me to notice.
"That's right. Every bond she weakened or strengthened will return to its old status. Once I do this, your own coven will attack each other, giving me all the time in the world to kill you, unless, of course, Marcus kills you first."
I wanted to explain the other things I'd done, when I felt a sharp pain in my stomach and doubled over as Chelsea suddenly escaped from my grasp.
Before I'd straightened I heard the now familiar sound of a head being ripped off its body. I looked to see Edward standing there with a head in his right hand and a lighter in his left. The body was on fire before anyone else thought to move.
All of them froze, they stood as statues and I felt the danger approach in my gut. I grabbed Edwards arm and jumped as far and high as I could. We landed messily in a tree and I immediately let go of his arm and avoided his questioning gaze.
There was no movement in the meadow. No one was breathing as the bonds that Chelsea had formed had suddenly disappeared. The Cullens, who apparently realized that unpredictable vampires were the most dangerous, followed our example and were soon up a tree.
The sight beneath us was one that I would never forget. A coven that had been close nit for all those years, for centuries, moved as one. Fights broke out and one by one vampires went down. The red-eyed women and man turned against those who'd been their friend and family. I saw the coven destroy itself.
Caius stood with Marcus against Aro, who was trying to talk them out of killing him. I jumped trees and stepped down. I stood next to Marcus and listened. Aro begged, he pleaded, he asked for mercy. I never saw someone as pathetic as he was.
"You killed you sister, you friend's wife, and you want us to show mercy? Want him to show mercy?" I nodded to Marcus and he glanced at me with gratitude.
That moment was all Aro needed to run. Before I registered what had happened I saw Edward jump down the same tree I had and tackle the fallen vampire. He forced Aro's hands behind his back and gave a nod to Marcus who grabbed Aro's head and twisted of his body. I gave Caius my lighter and he nodded, flipping it open and looking at the small flame. He threw it on the body and they watched for a second as the body turned into ash. Edward let it go and we turned to watch the battlefield.
Jane and Alec obviously had the upper hand as they were the only ones working together. With their powers combined they paralyzed and crucified a group of coven members at the same time. There was nothing we could do to stop the fight, but I definitely didn't want them to be last two standing. I concentrated and felt my shield expand to cover most of the meadow.
The twin's powers suddenly stopped working and within seconds they were torn to shreds, having no fighting abilities besides there powers.
The group of a dozen red-eyed vampires, having fought with their enemies and ready to think of self-preservation, fled the scene and I watched as the most powerful clan in the world be reduced to its last remaining two leaders.
A/N anyone an idea for the epilogue, because I don't want to twist and turn this story even further as the updates would take months. thank you for reading, reviewing, favoriting and alerting this story and if you have a one-shot challenge, don't be afraid to challenge me, I can spare some time if I'm not having amateur writer's block.
