The Volturi
Bella POV
I started to regain conciseness and I could hear my angles voice. He sounded so afraid, so sad, so hurt. An angle should not feel such things, I wanted to reach out and comfort it.
"I love you daddy." I heard a little voice say, a little muffled from being up against the angle and from having something in its mouth.
"I love you too." My angle answered. I couldn't hold off any longer. I was overjoyed that Omri, me and Jake's son, thinks of Edward as his dad. I opened my eyes to see Omri curled up in Edwards lap and Edward rocking back and forth. Edward glanced up at me and his eyes grew as he processed that I was awake.
"Oh my god." He said as Omri looked up. He let out a little squeal and jumped up onto the bed with me.
"Mommy!" he screamed as he hugged me tightly.
"Hi, sweetheart." I said wrapping him in a hug of my own.
"I missed you mommy. I thought you were going to sleep forever." He said kissing my cheek. I sat up and pulled him into my lap.
"I will always wake up." I said trying to comfort him while trying to hide how I felt from what he had just said. It hurt me to think that one day he might lose me. It also hurt to know that he thought he had lost me already. Edward caught on to this and picked up Omri from my lap.
"Hey Omri, why don't you see if uncle Emmett will play with you while I get mommy ready to see everyone?" he asked spinning him in the air. He put him back on the ground where he looked up at the two of us with joy in his eyes.
"Ok daddy, bye mummy!" he said while running out of the room. "Hey uncle Emmett! Time to play hide and seek!" he screamed with joy as he ran down the hall. I couldn't help but giggle.
Edward POVI knew something was bothering Bella so I got Omri to go play with Emmett so that we could talk. I got up onto our bed and pulled her into my arms like I had done with Omri.
"What's the matter Bella?" I asked holding her tight to me.
"Nothing, what he said just got to me a little, that's all." She said looking up into my eyes. Way back when it used to be me that could dazzle anyone just by looking at them but now, Bella had that one. Her eyes were like magic the way they would make you forget about all your problems.
"What bothered you?" I asked knowing that if we talked about it she would feel better. She always did.
"He thought I wouldn't wake up. I'm afraid of that most of all. I don't want him to think that I won't wake up, I want him to know that I will always be here for him, forever." She said looking at her hands now. I could see her fiddling with her fingers as she spoke. I put my index finger under her chin and held her face so that I could see her beautiful eyes. I put my face so close so that our lips almost touched.
"Bella." I breathed. " You know that I would never let anything happen to you. And Omri is only two; it's his job to think like a two year old. Please don't take it to heart, just be happy so that he knows that you are all right. He missed you a lot you know." I stated as pulled away. I had left her in a daze. So I guess I can still dazzle her too. Just then a look of horror crossed her face.
"He's not two he's one." She said trying to correct me, but by the look in her eyes she knew what I was about to say next.
"Love, today is august first." I said holding her even tighter to me.
"No, no, no," she was starting to sob. She had been looking forward to his birthday for the past month. His birthday was a bid deal to her.
"Shhh, Bella, shhh" I cooed as she cried into my shirt. I held her head to my chest and rocked her back and forth.
"I don't think this day could get worse." He whined as I wiped away her tears.
"What are you talking about, your alright, how is this day bad at all?" I asked in disbelief.
"Yah by the looks of it you missed me a lot too." She giggled and wrapped her arms around me.
"What makes you say that?" I asked hoping that there was nothing too obvious that I haven't left her side the whole time.
"Try your eyes, it looks like you haven't fed since I was out. And your hair is a mess which you would never let happen unless you haven't seen it, and the fact that you are wearing the same thing from dinner, when ever that was." She said pointing out everything.
"Yah well," I tried to come up with an excuse but I couldn't. " I love you too much to leave your side when you need me." I said kissing her forehead. I could see her eyes light up as I spoke. Just then a smirk tugged at her lips.
"You missed you know." She stated looking up into my eyes.
"What are you talking about?" I asked confused.
"This." she said as she put her hands around my neck and pulled my face down so that it was level with hers.
"I see." I said giving her my crooked smile. I bent down and started to kiss her. I could feel a spark of energy flow through us. I picked her up and lie her down on the bed while we kissed. I used my elbows to support my weight, so that I didn't squish her. I could feel her tongue against my bottom lip. It sent a surge of energy through me. I opened my mouth and as out tongues touched even more energy passed through us. The kiss got deeper and deeper as time went on. He had her hands wondering my chest now and I had mine trailing from her ears to her hips. As my finder tips glided across her stomach a shiver escaped her body. As this happed her kisses became more urgent and she started to unbutton my shirt. Once she had gotten the last button undone and through the shirt on the floor the door opened slightly and I heard a pair snickers. Only they were too low, and too loud to have come from a human let alone a baby. I pulled my bottom lip up ending the kiss. As I did so Bella glared at me. I whispered everything in her ear so low that no one else would hear. Just then I jumped up and was at the door before any of them could blink. I opened in quickly making the people on the other side jump. Jasper, Emmett and little Omri looked at me like a deer in headlights.
"He made me do it!" Omri screamed as he pointed at Emmett. Jasper broke out into a laughing fit and Emmett glared at him.
"Tattle tale." Emmett whined to Omri. He then turned to me with a puzzled look.
"Daddy. I thought you were getting mommy ready, how come you are the one not dressed?" he asked truly confused. Jasper started to laugh again and Emmett fell to the floor booming with laughter.
"Shut up Emmit!" I said annoyed as I tried to think of a way out of this.
"C'mon Omri lets let mommy and daddy have some privacy." Jasper said winking at me and laughing again.
"No!" Omri yelled as Jasper picked him up. Jasper tried to hold him but it didn't work well. Then it all happened so fast after that. I saw Omri's teeth turn into fangs and I watched him bite down on jaspers arm making him yelp and drop him. Omri dashed into our room and Jasper let out a snarl and was about to chase him. I couldn't figure out why jasper would be ravenous all of the sodden. No one was bleeding or hurt anywhere near us. Then I thought of something, when Omri's fangs grew he might had bit his tongue. I sniffed the air and sure enough it was filled with the smell of Omri's blood.
"Emmett! Get you and Jasper out of here!" I yelled as I tried to hole Jasper away from my face. He jaw snapped right in front of my face as I tried to hold him off. Emmett covered his nose and picked him up. I watched them run down the stairs and out of the house to get fresh air. Omri's smell was even better than Bella's and not just to me but to the whole family. I ran in to see how Bella was holding up. Omri was on the bed with her in tears. I sat there with him in her arms and rocked him back and forth.
"Omri, you can't do that any more ok. You have to keep your teeth normal. No letting them grow." Bella said as she rubbed his back. I walked over to them.
"Omri, can you let me see your mouth please." I asked, as I got closer.
"No." he said stubbornly.
"Omri! Don't talk like that." Bella scolded. "Now open your mouth." She commanded.
"No." he said once more. I could see anger starting to rise in her eyes. I went over to his mouth and opened it with no problem. I could see a gash in his tongue where his fang and gone right through his tongue. Just then I heard Carlisle run through the door panic written all over his face.
"What is it?" Bella asked once she saw his face. I tried to read his thoughts but he blocked me out.
"Then volturi, they are here." He said now pain showing on his face. We all knew exactly what they wanted.
"No!" I screamed and just then Alic and Demitri both showed up at my door.
"Now, now. Don't you miss us?" Demitri asked in a very seductive tone. I could hear a growl starting in Edward's chest. He must have been reading their minds. I just remembered that I could do that too.
Wow she's a sexy vampire. I wonder if I could get her away for a while if you know what I mean. I could tell that was Alic, god did I hate that guy. He was much younger when he was changed but he was definitely older than me in vampire years. I was only about a little over two years old now. Just then I watched Edward's head snap in Demitri's direction.
"Have you forgotten I can read minds?" he growled. Alic looked shocked and embarrassed, but Demitri looked smug.
"Not at all." He said with a glint of entertainment. Demitri had been picturing me in a black lace corset with matching underwear. It was quite a disturbing picture at that.
"Well, did you know I can read minds?" I asked pissed off now. This caught both their attention. Alic looked out the window and Demitri just pushed it aside.
"Good then you know what I have waiting for you at voltera." He said with a chuckle. That was something he shouldn't have said. I watched as Edward let out a defining roar and got ready to fight. Just then Omri started to cry and Demitri licked his attention to my arms.
"It would have been quite a shame if I had forgotten about the reason I was here in the first place now. Isn't that right Alic?" he said with a crooked smile. Not as appealing as Edward's in the least. They took one step and that's when we heard it. There was a huge lion like roar that filled the whole house making it shake. Everyone was looking at each other to try and figure out where it was coming from. But the only explanation was that it came from me.
"Now, now Bella. Don't make this harder than it has to be." Alic warned as he took a step at me. My roar was more of a lioness; Edward on the other hand was more the lion. Carlisle chose now to speak up.
"Actually boys, we are on our way to see Aro anyways. So no need to get all riled up." He said in a smug tone.
"We would be happy to escort you in that case." Demitri said smug as well.
"That will be quite alright, I know how to get there." Carlisle replied now getting a little annoyed but not showing it in the least.
"Yes well I'm afraid there is no way around it so come this way please." They said turning and walking out the room.
"Can this be qualified as the worst day ever yet?" Bella asked in a very pissed off tone.
Bella POVWe had just entered Voltera and Omri was asleep in Edward's arms. We walked into the "dining" room where I had hoped never to be again. Once we got through the door Aro stood as well as Marcus and Cios.
"Welcome friends" he chortled as we entered the hall. "And look! I take it this is your whole family?" he asked as Carlisle walked in.
"Yes it is. This is Rosalie and Emmett, Jasper and Alice, my wife Esme, and of coarse you know Edward and Bella." He said as he finished introducing the family.
"Bella!" he said happily. " Its nice to see you again" he said in his unnaturally happy tone.
"Like wise." I said bowing my head. I could tell Edward was surprised I hadn't blown up at them yet.
"And who mite this be Edward?" he asked referring to the boy in his arms.
"This is Bella's son Omri," he said making sure to be clear that he is my son. As in ill kick anyone's ass that tries to hurt him.
"I see, so who would be the father then?" he asked curiously. I looked over to Carlisle and he nodded giving me permission to say.
"This is Omri Black for now. He is the son of Jacob back." I said not liking to talk about it.
"Hmm. I recognize then name." Aro replied. Oh crap, he was going to find out he was part werewolf.
"Billy black was his grandfather. Also the head of the Quileute pack." I said giving in.
"I see." he said looking perplexed. "So he is a wolf I would assume." He said now looking unsure.
"For now yes. He has been changing rapidly and is quite the puzzle." Carlisle said trying to lighten the mood slightly. Aro jumped down from his throne and landed just in front of Carlisle holding out his hand. Carlisle took it without complaint and I watched as Aro retrieved the memories.
"I see. This is quite remarkable. So he is turning the two of you human?" Aro asked obviously entertained by this fact. Marcos and Cios both looked at us wide eyed.
"Not necessarily, he is balancing out the three of us. We are as human as he is and he is as much vampire as we are now." I said clearing that up a little.
"Well then Bella might I ask what your power is?" he said looking over at me with expecting eyes.
"My power is what ever I want. I can have what ever power I want and make it come and go as I please." I said smug. I watched as Jane gave me a death glair from the back corner. "Might I give an example?" I asked itching to get at Jane. I hadn't liked her since she hurt Edward.
" Joyous! This should be quite amusing!" he chortled yet again. He jumped up into his throne one more time awaiting my show. I turned to face the Cullen's.
"Line up on the wall so that I don't get any of you by mistake." I said as I looked back to Aro. They all did as I said and soon I was in the middle of the room alone. "May I have Demitri, Alic, and Jane face me please Aro?" I asked utterly pleased with myself.
"Are you sure that be wise my girl? After all you are only two years old, and these vampires are best of the best." He warned. I just let out a chuckle.
"Don't worry about me Aro. Now must I leave them all in one piece or shall I try the extent of my power?" I asked awaiting his answer. I hoped he said I could go all out; I would enjoy that.
"I think just a taste would be enough my dear." He said folding his hands out in front of him. "One thing I must see first. Jane please see if your power works now?" he asked waving Jane over.
"No!" Edward yelled from the side.
"Its fine." I said looking at him trying to sooth his worry.
Jane stood in front of me and within seconds I was on the ground. The pain was unbearable but I took it in silence and Edward once had. Just then I looked up at Jane and saw her smile even wider as more pain rushed through my body. A scream escaped my lips as he let out her full power on me. Seconds after my scream I was up and behind her. I decided with her I would use mind control as well. The catch with my mind control was that I had to say the commands out loud. "Left" I commanded as I moved my arm in the same direction. As I said this she ran straight into the wall. "Right" I commanded again so she turned and did it again. Then I decided to use her own power against her. She was on the ground and screaming and thrashing in seconds. I used her power full force and watched her scream louder. I could see the pain in her eyes but something caught my eye. Jasper was on the ground too. I stopped immediately.
"What's the matter?" Aro asked obviously disappointed.
"Jasper and Alice leave." I commanded.
"Its ok Bella I'm fine." Jasper said getting up.
"No jasper its one thing hurting them I wont do it to you. Now get out so I can beat these three for completely ruining my life." I said now anger boiling over. The left without another word.
"What would you like to see Aro?" I asked not knowing what I should want next. He thought for a moment then smiled.
"Search his thoughts and tell us all one." He said pleased with himself. I looked over to Alic and concentrated hard.
"He once saw Cios waltzing with Marcus in the court yard." I said happy with what I had found. Cios jumped from his throne in front of me. His eyes dark with hate.
"You will regret that." He threatened.
" You want to bet? I'm holding in a lot of anger against you guy I wouldn't test how strong my will power is." I threatened back.
"Cios sit down, we are just having a little fun." Aro said enjoying my show. "Bella please show us the worst you could passably do." Aro said waiting for me to start. I had to think a moment. Vampires were afraid of fire. I closed my eyes and raised my arms up to about my shoulders. I concentrated really hard on what I wanted done. Next thing I knew everyone was gasping. I opened my eyes to see that I was covered from head to tow in flames.
"Bella!" Edward yelled thinking that I was in danger. I smirked and turned to wink at him. I then turned to look at Demitri whose eyes were filled with fear.
"Sorry Demitri but I didn't much like that picture." I said as I through fire at his feet. I watched him jump up and down trying to avoid the fire. I could hear Aro laughing as I did so. I finished up and the fire on my slowly died. The family was back with me in a matter of seconds.
"Bella, I would love to have you join us here in Voltera" Aro said as he laughed.
"I'm sorry but I will have to deny that offer thanks" I said taking the now awake Omri into my arms. Omri giggled as he looked up at Aro.
"Hello!" he yelled waving feverously. Aro came down a little slower this time to land by Omri.
"Well hello there, my name is Aro." He said in response.
"Ha ha. That's a silly name." Omri giggled.
"Omri. Behave." I scolded.
"Its quite alright Bella, it is after all a silly name." He said laughing. I looked over to see Jane glairing at Omri. Just then he started to scream. I took him into my arms and while the thrashed and screamed.
"Jane stop!" I screamed as I tried to hold Omri still.
" Hey, don't look at me. I didn't do it." She said throwing her hands in the air. I looked over to Carlisle.
"He's changing." He said simply.
"How no one bit him and he's not mature." I said fear drawn all over my face.
"Someone did bite him." Edward said as we all looked at each other. Everyone looked at him guessing the same thing, that he did it. "Whoa, whoa, whoa, I didn't! He bit himself." He said also putting his hands in the air.
"Shit!" I cursed just thinking about all the pain he would have to go through, that's when it hit me. I closed my eyes and touched Omri's temples. He was quiet in an instant.
"What did you do?" Edward asked the question that was burning in all their minds. Just then Jasper and Alice both ran in.
" He's unconscious, and will be until he's done the change." I said handing him over to Esme. From there we were excused and went home.
