PLEASE READ: Hiya readers. Okay, this time I'm giving you TWO chapters:) (Even though this one isn't that long, it's still a chapter.) By the way, I don't know if they'll let you listen to iPods on a plane, I've never been on one. I need to get out more often...anyways, please R)

I do not own Twilight or Maximum Ride, or Breaking Benjamin, or any of his songs.

Chapter 21-Diary of Jane

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

I was not one to enjoy a plane trip. For one thing, having above average hearing I could hear almost any conversation on the plane. And if someone was listening to music, I could hear that too. I wasn't going to lie, I was thinking about Nikkie. (I know! Shocker!) She hadn't really done anything wrong as far as the Volturi could see at the moment, but I knew she was going to be right beside the Cullens' and the bird kids. I didn't see why she cared about killing them, I mean she had killed almost dozens of people when we fed in Volterra. So..why would kids be any different? Why would the Cullens' be any different?

I was also thinking about all the times I had caught Jane torturing her. Yes, I had talked to Jane about it, and she said that it was nothing but simple fun, and that she needed something to practice on. I remembered the last time I had caught her, and Nikkie told me quote on quote, 'I am not going to alter myself for your sister. I tried to find a place in her dead heart, but there is no room. Power and hate is all that's inside it. I'm not going to try and find a place anymore.' I glanced at a girl on the other side of the plane. She looked about fourteen, and was listening to a green iPod. I hadn't really been paying attention to what was playing, but one word caught my attention.

Jane.

I listened harder.

Somethings getting in the way,

Somethings just about to break,

I will try to find my place,

In the diary of Jane.

The song made me think of Nikkie's words. Everyone seemed to try to please Jane, just because...well she can pretty much kill them on the spot, but still. I didn't try to please her though. Her powers didn't work on me for some reason. But then again, mine didn't work on her. I wondered how Nikkie's powers might do on her. Jane wouldn't see it coming, none of the Volturi would. I was surprised we were able to keep her powers secret all this time. Nikkie could turn into mist and a shadow, didn't really seem that threating. But when she was mist she could hide someone in it, in plain sight. And when she was a shadow she could sneak up on someone and hit them pretty hard. Yeah, she practiced her powers on me once. I had to get curious.

"Alec," I jumped a little as I came back to my senses. Chelsea, who was sitting by me was looking at me with confounded eyes. "Are you alright?" I nodded slowly. "What were you thinking about?" I just shrugged and shook my head. "Nothing." I muttered. Chelsea glanced at each of the members, who were all in there own conversations. She looked back at me. "I know your thinking about her." She said softly. I tried to protest, but I wasn't really in the mood for arguing. I just sighed and nodded once.

"Well you don't really think she'll...protect them of anything. Do you?" I watched her for a long second. "Chelsea," I said softly. She leaned in to listen. "She's friends with them. All of them. The Cullen's, those kids." She blinked. "Are you sure she just wasn't faking it?" She asked. I shook my head. "She wasn't faking it. She did it to well. When Jane told her to go tell them, I saw it on her face. She didn't want to tell them." I paused. "But do you really think those vegetarians would kill her?" She shook her head. "So she must be on their side." She muttered. I glanced at Aro. He was talking to Jane. "You think they'll kill her?" I muttered. She followed my gaze, then looked back at me. "I don't know," She said softly. "If we voted then it would be you, me, Afton, Corin, Renata, and Santiago against the leaders, Jane, Felix, Demetri, and Heidi. Not very fair."

I nodded. "Couldn't they just lock her up?" Chelsea asked. I shook my head. "To much trouble, and she'd escape anyways. If they don't take her back to Volterra to kill her, they'll just hand her over to Jane in front of everyone." I thought about her being able to block thoughts. Maybe if she tried to block Jane, then she could live. Chelsea looked at everyone again. "I know that girl has a power," She whispered. I jerked my head to her this time. She chuckled. "She's half wolf and half vampire, Alec. She's stronger than us all, she just has never fought back. She can have Jane's body ripped into a million pieces as a wolf in minuets." She pated my hand. "They won't kill her. Once they see her fight back, they'll see a use for her." I half smiled. "Or they can see her as a threat." She chuckled again. "The Volturi doesn't see anyone as a threat, you know that." I nodded again.
