21. Aftermath - Roxanne's POV

The aftermath of the ceremony was very confusing. Carlisle started to tell the guest what had happened over the past few days. Whilst Rebecca put Marcus back to his original self: he seem happy that Aro and Caius finally got their just dessert. Although, I could tell he was still upset about something. I asked him.

'Marcus, why are you always so upset?' When I said this I lifted my shield to see what he was thinking. All he was thinking about was a beautiful woman; a vampire: and from his memories I could see that he loved her. I smiled at him. 'This woman in your thoughts: was she your wife?' He nodded as I said this, before looking at the floor.

I could see it upset him to take about her. So, I thought I'd try something I'd never tried before. I looked a few minutes into the future, and then imagined that Marcus' wife would walk through the door. As I did this I continued to talk to him: I had no idea if my plan would work. 'What was her name Marcus?' He looked up at this point, before sighing.

'Didyme... Her name was Didyme; she made everyone around her so happy. She never stopped smiling.' As he said this I smiled.

'She was a very lucky woman to have you.' When I said this Marcus smiled for the first time, although as he did I noticed that everyone had started to smile.

It was weird, and for some reason I was smiling too. Jasper looked on the verge of bursting into tears of happiness. Still this meant I looked towards the door, and as I did in walked Didyme. Marcus' face fell at this point, still Didyme walked over to him.

'Marcus... What's happening? I went to your room and you weren't there.' As she said this Marcus took hold of her hand and he looked at me.

'Roxanne, thank you... I'll never be able to repay you.' When he said this Aaron, who was back to himself, wrapped his arm around my waist.

'You can actually. Eric, Carlisle and I were talking... James has fixed up the guards so they don't remember Aro or Caius. As long as you run the Volturi, you have repaid us enough.'

When Aaron said this Marcus looked at Didyme. She was smiling.

'Marcus, what has happened?' As she said this Marcus grinned widely.

'Our world has been saved by an angel, love.' Didyme continued to smile at this point, and as she did Marcus looked back to me and Aaron.

'I'm still eternally grateful: but you have my word. I will continue to keep the laws in place.' Once Marcus had said this he walked up to the front: still holding Didyme's hand, before speaking. 'Let it been know today, that nothing has changed. You may all go back to your existence, and know that the Volturi will for once be doing our world some good.' As Marcus said this everyone clapped. I guess sometimes happiness can come from something bad. I guess being The Volturi Princess was never a bad thing. It turned out that in the end everyone was happy.

2 years later...

'Em will you shut up?' Edward had cracked after 4 hours of Emmett singing Barbie Girl. Actually, it was getting on everyone's nerves: and we still have 9 hours of sitting on this plane. Anyway, as Edward snapped at Emmett; Emmett stuck his tongue out. I sighed at this and went back talking with Alice.

'What is it with Em and cheesy pop songs?' As I said this Alice shrugged her shoulders.

'If we knew that we wouldn't have to put up with it.' I rolled my eyes at this point, before looking out the window: Alice zoned out. When Alice zoned out I lifted my shield to read her mind. She was having a vision. I hate it when she has a vision and I don't.

We were all in Volterra: which happens to be where we're heading. Anyway, we all standing in the Volturi meeting room. Marcus enters to the left, hold Didyme's hand. He smiles as he see us.

'It's good to see you all again.' As they enter Didyme's power wound its way through our group. We all start to smile: Carlisle was the only one to talk.

'We came to see how you were doing.' When Carlisle said this Marcus looked at his wife, before replying.

'Not bad... We've had a few problems with the guard, but things seem to be holding.'

As Marcus says this, two guards entered behind us. They were wrapped up in their cloaks; so you didn't know who they were until they spoke. The smaller of the two spoke first.

'I didn't know we were having guests Marcus.' When the guard spoke it wasn't a voice I recognised, and as Marcus looked at his guard he grinned.

'Yes... This is the Cullen and the Goodwin clans. You remember them, don't you Jan? They're old friends of mine.' As Marcus said this the guard dropped her hood. It was Jane: although she looked completely different. The anger had gone from her eyes and she was smiling a happy, innocent smile...

At this point Alice's vision faded. I brought my shield back around me; and as I did Alice looked at me: I smirked.

'Well, this is going to be interesting.' She agreed with me at this point, before glancing over to James.

'What on Earth did he do to Jane?' As she said this I shrugged my shoulders.

'Maybe she'll let you dress her now.' When I said this Alice snapped out of thought. She grinned widely, before starting to talk about the makeover she was going to give Jane.

I was half listing to Alice, although Emmett continued to sing. Edward was now sat with his fingers in his ears; and Bella sat giggling at her silly husband. Plus, Aaron was now trying to get my attention. Right now, it seemed like my experience in Volterra 2 years ago never happened. So much for being the Volturi Princess.

Well that's the end of my story... Please Review and tell me what you think. I'm thinking about doing some sort of sequeal; but I'm not to sure what that'll be yet. Disclaimer: I own all the unrecognisable characters and plot. Stephanie Meyer owns the Cullens and Volturi.
