New Moon: Chapter 10- As You Wish My Queen
As sped down the streets of Italy in a bright yellow Porsche, Alice was admiring the car and the speeds as she said, "I want one of these."
"I'll buy you one for Christmas," I said and drove quickly around a tractor. Bella held on to the handle and said, "I'm guessing you didn't rent this car?"
I smirked as I said, "I figured you wouldn't be opposed to Grand Theft Auto."
"Not today," Bella said simply. As Alice went into a vision, I looked back at her and Bella noticed too saying, "What? What do you see?"
"They refused him," Alice said. I nodded and shifted gears as I said, "So?"
"He's gonna make a scene- show himself to the humans," Alice said. I growled and shifted again and drifted around a corner and shifted once more, driving even faster.
"No! When?" Bella asked as I drifted around another corner. Alice grabbed her softly before she hit the door as she said, "He's going to wait until noon. When the sun's at its highest."
"God, Cory, you gotta hurry up," Bella said as she shut her eyes tightly. I looked up through the windshield and said, "There's Volterra."
I honked the horn repeatedly as I drove quickly through the streets but as I turned a corner I saw lots of people in red cloaks. I didn't have time to ponder why as I was trying not to hit anyone. Bella on the other hand, was freaking out as she said, "Why are they all wearing red?"
"San Marco's day festival," Alice said. I rolled my eyes at the mention of the holiday's name.
"They're commemorating the expulsion of vampires from the city," Alice said, "It's the perfect setting. The Volturi will never let him get far enough to reveal himself."
"We have five minutes," Bella panted. I turned another corner and yelled in Italian, "Movimento!" (Move)
"I know, Bella, just breathe," Alice said, "You too Cory." I glared at her through the rearview mirror.
I had to stop though as the police made me. I had to roll down my window and Alice talked to Bella quickly saying, "Bella you're the only one he can't see coming. If I go, he'll read my thoughts. He'll think I'm lying. He'll rush into it."
"Where do I go?" Bella asked. I slowly started to roll down my window as Alice said, "He'll be under the clock tower, GO!"
At that, Bella shut the door and I smiled at the man widely as I took off my sunglasses. He blushed under my gaze, "You can't drive anymore because of the parade…" He told me in Italian. I smiled at him and said back, "I was pretty sure I could, right?"
I stared him in the eyes as I compelled him and he nodded dumbly. I slid my sunglasses on as he moved the barrier for me, and I continued honking my horn as I went through all the people. Alice jumped into the seat beside me and I parked in a shaded area that was away from the parade as she put on a long coat, a scarf, a hat, and gloves. I simply stepped out of the car.
We sped through till we got to the crowd and I quickly took a red cloak off a rack that the owner didn't notice and I put it on to blend it. Someone in solid black, in a sea of red would stand out. Alice and I walked quickly through the humans and made it to the clock tower. As we walked up to the door Alice tried opening it and said, "It's locked."
I grabbed the handle and pulled it all the way out. I opened the door and said, "Ladies first."
Alice walked in and said, "Come on, guys. It's a festival-" I interrupted her as I walked in behind her saying, "You wouldn't want to make a scene…"
Felix and Demetri both stiffened at the sight of me and I smirked and held up the broken door knob saying, "Sorry about that." I wasn't really sorry as I threw it aimlessly behind me. I took of the red cloak and dropped it on the floor, kicking it to the side. I then heard the sound of heels and I caught a little girl walking towards us, and she said, "Enough."
"Jane," Edward said quietly. I walked up on the other side of Bella, and I saw Jane smile at the sight of me. Jane and Alec were the only Volturi members who I liked. They never intentionally tried to hurt us when we came, even when they were ordered, like the rest of the guard members. Klaus tolerated them and I thought of them as my own kids at times.
"Aro sent me to see what was taking so long," Jane said not showing any emotion though I knew she was glad to see me. As she turned around, we started following her and as we started walking, I bumped shoulders with Edward- more like I shoved his arm and with the silence you could hear the sickening crack.
Bella looked at me with wide eyes and I simply grinned as Alice sighed and the Volturi members snickered. As we walked down lots of tunnels and loops, Jane sped ahead and I simply walked in front of Bella, Alice, Felix, and Demetri.
After the third snide comment from Felix I said, "Felix, if you make one more snide comment about how slow we're walking, I will shove my heel in your face so hard that your eyeballs will pop out and you won't be able to breathe through your mouth and nose for weeks."
I heard Felix gulp.
As we got to the little hole in the wall thingy, I slid down it quickly, and Alice followed. I heard Edward give Bella a pep talk, and then I heard her say, "Cory? Alice?"
I cleared my throat and said, "Here."
"I'm right here, Bella," Alice said. Bella then slid down and we caught her quickly. I set her on the ground and then Edward, Felix, and Demetri were there I walked behind Edward and Bella this time. We came to an elevator that Jane was standing by and she pushed it open, and we all got in. I stood in the back in-between Felix and Demetri and I said, "I remember what happened here when it was still stairs… Good times, good times…"
I smirked as I felt every vampire in the elevator except Alice and Jane tense. Bella didn't because she didn't know what I meant.
Klaus, Elijah, Kol, Rebekah, and I were finishing the rest of the vampires off. I looked back at Aro, Caius, and Marcus and Felix and Demetri ran for me. The rest of the boys and Rebekah were temporarily sustained momentarily by five other guards. I grabbed Demetri's neck and flipped him over me into the stairwell. Since I was wearing heels I simply stepped on his neck and his head came rolling down the steps.
I smiled at Jane when I realized she was using her power on Felix while I dealt with Demetri. Alec was using his power on the other four guards, but I didn't pay my husband and brother-in-laws/sister-in-law any mind as I jumped up, placing my legs around Felix's neck, and ripped his head off with my thighs. I quickly jumped off him and landed on my feet.
Kol wrapped an arm around my waist and we all turned to Aro, Caius, and Marcus. They simply stared at us and Klaus said, "That wasn't very hard."
Rebekah brushed her hands on her dress and Elijah said, "Don't cross us again or we will burn them next time. Including you."
We all turned and headed out with all of the Volturi guards' bodies- minus Jane and Alec's- surrounding us at our feet.
I smiled at the memory.
We got to the correct floor, and we all walked out. I was behind Demetri and Felix because I wouldn't let them look at my ass.
As we passed the receptionist she stood up saying something in Italian (I didn't really care to translate at the moment) but her eyes widened as she saw me. Just because I was feeling mean, I quickly changed my face to scare her and she sat down quickly, cowering. Bella snapped me out of my mean state of mind as she said, "Is she human?"
"Yes," Edward answered.
"Does she know?" Bella asked again. Edward simply said, "Yes."
"Then why would…" Bella started but then she realized as she completed her own sentence saying, "She wants to be."
"And so she will be," Demetri said, and Jane said, "Or dessert."
I scoffed and said, "Knowing you guys, probably dessert."
Felix chuckled at that and Demetri rolled his eyes. Then we headed into the head room that held the three "kings." I knew Klaus always hated calling them that. He loved being king and having three other vampires that were called "Master" while he was alive, didn't really settle well with him. Especially since we're much older than them.
"Sister, they send you out to get one and you bring back-" He stopped as he saw me and I smirked saying, "Seven."
Alec smirked at that. Jane went to take her brother's place and I saw the "Kings" tense up at seeing me, but I simply stood beside Bella. I wasn't in the mood to fight and I'd only do it if absolutely necessary.
"What a happy surprise," Aro said excitedly as he stood up from his throne. He headed towards us, and I felt someone grab my arm nervously. I looked down at Bella and I could tell she was trying not to panic. I looked up at Aro as he said, "Bella is alive after all, and Cora has decided to pay us a visit. Isn't that wonderful?"
I forced a smile though it probably looked like a scowl.
"I love a happy ending," Aro said with a grin. Bella looked alarmed and scared as Edward's hand was ripped from her's by Aro. Aro turned to me with a smile as he said, "They are so rare."
I glared at him harshly and he gulped. He then gasped and said, "Her blood appeals to you so much. It makes me thirty." I growled in warning at him and he immediately looked back at Edward saying, "How can you stand to be so close to her?"
"It's not without difficulty," Edward said. Aro nodded and said, "Yes, I can see that."
"Aro can read every thought I've ever had with one touch," Edward told Bella. She held onto my wrist tighter. I then said, "And now you know everything. So get on with it."
Aro gulped as he looked at me and he turned to Edward saying, "You're quite a soul reader yourself, Edward. Though you can't read Bella thoughts. Fascinating."
"I would love to see if you are an exception to my gifts, as well," Aro said to Bella as he stepped back a bit. Bella slowly hid behind me and I said, "I don't think that'll be happening, Aro. Why don't we try Jane's gift?"
I saw Jane smirk as Aro said, "As you wish my Queen," I resisted the urge to roll my eyes and Aro said, "Jane."
Edward growled saying, "No!"
Jane then said, "Pain," And Edward collapsed in pain on the floor. I held Bella in place as she tried going to Edward and she gripped my arm tightly saying to Aro, "Stop! Please! Stop! Just stop hurting him! Please! Please!"
I could really give a flying flip if Edward was in pain or not. He left Bella in a cationic state for months on end. I was good on letting him get beat up a bit.
"Jane," Aro said. She stopped and looked over at Aro saying, "Master."
"Go ahead, my dear," Aro said and Bella gulped and looked over at Jane and I looked at Jane knowing she was going to get upset. If I couldn't compel Bella, and Edward couldn't read her mind- that meant that she was a shield and even Jane couldn't hurt her.
"This may hurt just a little," Jane said with a smirk towards Bella. Bella gripped my arm tightly and I looked down at her telling her with my eyes, "You'll be fine."
Jane stared at her and I knew her power was working as she accidentally turned it on me instead. I fisted my hand and despite the agony of Jane's power, I stood tall and forced out, "Jane."
She stopped immediately saying, "Sorry."
Bella looked at me worriedly and I relaxed when the effects of the power left me. Jane did it again towards Bella, and nothing happened. Aro clapped excitedly and said, "Remarkable. She confounds us all. So… what do we do with you now?"
"You already know what you're going to do, Aro," Marcus said as I narrowed my eyes. Caius continued the sentence by saying, "She knows too much. She's a liability."
"Hmm," Aro sighed, "That's true," Aro didn't even look at me as he said, "Felix."
I pulled Bella behind me safely as Felix walked towards us. No one was touching Bella. Apparently Edward had the same idea as he growled and got up quickly saying, "No!"
Looks like I wouldn't be doing anything. For now anyways.
Edward tackled Felix to the ground and Alice tried helping, but she was grabbed by Demetri. No one dared even getting close to me.
Felix knocked Edward into the air and I watched with amusement. I couldn't help but feel good that Edward was getting beat up. But I did not expect Felix to grab Edward from mid-air, and slam him into the ground, cracking his skull. He stalked towards us and I pushed Bella slightly back. She backed away as I walked a little forward and shocking everyone in the room, I kicked Felix back so hard he flew through Aro's throne. I smirked, but Felix then stood up. But then Edward stood up and charged at Felix.
I stepped back as I watched the two men fight. Bella held onto the back of my leather jacket as Felix spun Edward into the wall. He ended up under a bench, so when Felix broke the bench to get to him, it hit Edward in the face and I couldn't help the snicker. Felix picked him up by the neck and they flashed around the room too fast for human eyes to see. Then Felix slammed him into the ground. I was holding back applause by now.
He then picked him up, and Edward grabbed his elbow but they spun around until Felix grabbed Edward by the neck and flipped him over his head and into the stairs right below Marcus' feet. It was wonderful. All until Felix got Edward into the execution position.
I knew I was going to have to cut in. Especially when Bella said, "Please, please! No! Kill me, kill me! Not him."
I quickly ran over and before anyone had noticed I moved, I had punched Felix in the neck, very hard, causing his head to fall straight off. Edward stood up slowly and he nodded at me in thanks. We both walked over to Bella, and Aro stood nervously in front of me as I had just decapitated one of his best guards. Again.
"How extraordinary," Aro said, "You would give up your life for someone like us. A vampire. A soulless monster," Aro looked at me when he said that and I growled at him, daring him. He stepped back. But I guess Bella had a "Cory moment" as she gained a backbone and stood tall saying, "You don't know a thing about their souls."
"This is a sadness," Aro sighed, "If it were only your intention to give her immortality."
Just as he was about to have a go at Bella (Edward was detained by a new guard) I grabbed his arm and said, "Don't even think about it."
Everyone vampire in the room growled, and I smirked and said to Aro, "Want me to call Klaus?"
Aro's eyes widened even more and I said, "Thought so," I gripped his wrist tightly, "He didn't plan on changing her because I was. She will be changed. We even have a date set."
Aro didn't dare think I was lying because I was telling the truth. Bella and I had talked about it before. She had said that if Edward hadn't changed her by the time she hit nineteen, I was supposed to change her. We made a plan and everything. I didn't want her to change, but it was her choice. Not mine.
Aro simply nodded and all the vampires moved out of the way as Edward and Alice were released.
"Let us be done with this," Marcus said. I always held the most sympathy for Marcus. I felt we had something in common though my Kol wasn't dead and Didyme was. But we had both lost our mates and I knew how he felt.
"Heidi will arrive any moment," Marcus continued, "Thank you, for your visit."
"We will return the favor," Caius then started, "I will advise that you follow through on your promise soon. We do not offer second changes," I rolled my eyes.
"Goodbye, my friends," Aro said to us. As we were leaving the room, I looked back at Felix's discarded head and said, "Might want to put that back on him."
I then turned around and grinned. I forgot how much fun it was to mess with them.
AN: A very long chapter for you all before I head to school (ugh)
P.S. I keep forgetting to tell you all- Cory is played by Samantha Barks. I changed actresses/singers.
