I ran back onto the battle field, I had to find someone in charge, so that I would be taken prisoner and brought to the Volturi. It didn't take long, about two hours later and a few injuries later I was staring a three ugly faces that I had only seen in the IM that Athena had me watch when we declared war.

"Ah," one of them said, "If it isn't the little girl that started all of this."

"Come now," the middle one said. "She's going to help us. The lease we can do is treat her kindly."

I started to try to get out of the grip of the two vampires that were holding me, but this didn't work, instead I think I sprained my wrist. I just stared at the three and thrashed some more, only making my wrist hurt more.

"I would stop if I were you," the one who defended me said, "it'll only hurt."

"Like I'll take orders from you," I responded with acid dripping from every word. "Who are you anyway?"

"We are the Volturi," the last one spoke. "Don't you know our names?"

"Sorry, I said trying once more to wiggle my way out of the vampire's grip, "there isn't a vampire history class at the camp."

"Well then," the middle one said happily, "I'm Aro, and these are my brothers, Marcus," he motioned to the one with white hair, "and Caius," he motioned o the one with darker hair. "We make up the Volturi along with our wives who aren't here at the moment."

"I'm sure that it would be nice to meet you under any other circumstances," I said seemingly pleasant. "What do you want with me? You haven't taken any other prisoners; you only turn them into vampires."

"You are the daughter of two gods," he replied. "You are the youngest of the gods and we want you to help us."

"Why would I ever help you? From what I know you only want to take over Mount Olympus. Why would I help you over throw my family?"

Cauis answered my question without missing a beat, "Because they sent you here. They sent you to Earth instead of keeping you up on Olympus."

"We've talked, and they sent me here because of all of you!" I started to thrash once more, only to have the grip on me tighten.

"Why wouldn't they keep you there to protect you," the one named Marcus asked, "why did they send you here if they didn't want you?"

I stopped; no one had ever told me about this, why did they send me here instead of keeping me up there? Then I remembered what Edward told me, when they gave me up they were so afraid, so heartbroken, whatever these people told me I couldn't believe. "They did it because it's harder to find someone who's hiding somewhere on earth rather than someone who's a baby on Olympus."

They all just stood there, questioning whether I truly believed what I was talking about. The middle one was the first to speak after a long silence, "take her to a room and keep her there. She isn't to leave her room unless she is asked for by one of us. Otherwise she isn't allowed out under any circumstances. There are two ways to do this Isabella, the hard way and the easy way. You choose how we do this."

I was pulled out of the room thinking about what Aro had said and I came up with my decision, if they thought I was ever going to be doing this easily they were in for a surprise.

The room that I was brought to was pretty nice. There was a Queen sized bed with black and white bedding, a white couch, a big screen TV, a closet with cloths in it, and a mini fridge that had a few snacks in it. It was nicer than I thought it would be, but when we got there I was pushed into the room and the door was locked behind we with about three deadbolts. There was a window that went from the floor to about a foot from the ceiling, but they were bolted down every inch up the wall, which didn't surprise me at all. The glass was also shatter proof and when I tried I couldn't get the glass to budge or break.

I remembered the dream I had had a long time ago about the Cullens and everyone else talking about their last chance. When we that going to happen? I started to think through my plan, and unfortunately it required me to be their prisoner for about three days so that a lot of the newborns would be killed so they wouldn't have many defenses. The more newborns that are killed means the more guards they had to send out which meant the less protected the big three and their wives were, which meant the less I had to kill before I set this place on fire after killing the five of them. The only bad thing is that by the time everyone caught on they would be locking all the doors so that I wouldn't get out and then I would be trapped in a locked burning building. And within that time I was pry going to get bitten so I would be killed in both the actual flames and then the 'fire' that burned during the transformation. Both ways I was stuck here and I had no way of getting out at the moment.

I decided that I should pry see what the world was thinking about all of this, so I sat down on the couch and turned on the news.

"Many are wondering about the evacuation of half of the state of New York," the announcer said. "Unfortunately the president has said that it will be a little while before there will be any answers to these questions." The TV turned into a picture of the president, which meant they had talked to him on the phone, and there were sub titles which were convenient because you couldn't tell what he was saying.

"I'm sorry, but some things have been brought to my attention and it was important that we do this evacuation to protect the people of New York."

The TV then was at a picture of a male reporter that was in a helicopter flying over New York City. "Well, we are flying over New York right now and what we can see within the city is a battle that seems to be between what seems like children and people with crimson red eyes. Somehow this reminds of us all of a battle of Ancient Greek and Modern times. We aren't exactly sure what is going on, but we can tell that this is the reason New York was evacuated."

I turned off the TV, and found a radio on the nightstand next to the bed. I turned that on instead and listened to some music for about an hour. After that some time I ended up falling asleep even though I wasn't tired.

When I woke up I felt like someone was watching me, and I also found that I had fallen asleep on the couch with my hand around my necklace charm. I sat up and looked around, it was dark outside, and I knew that this was the time that we would have trouble fighting because vampires are so much better in the dark. Luckily the Pack, the other coven, and the Cullens would help all the campers out, but we would still have trouble none the less.

"Why isn't it working," I heard someone say behind me.

I instantly got up and spun around while taking a few steps back. "Who's there?"

A girl stepped out of the shadows, she looked young. "Me," she sighed unhappily, "but I think that I'm leaving." She started to head to the door and I just walked over to her.

"I'm sorry, you just scared me. What won't work?"

"My power doesn't work on you."

"What's your power," she looked familiar, but where would I have seen her before?

"I'm Jane," she said pulling her hood down.

I had fought her in that battle! The one that got away out of the worst five, and now she was standing here in front of me, but something was different from her now and when we had been fighting. "I'm Bella," I said extending my hand. "It's nice to meet you when we aren't fighting."

"Yeah," she said seeming off in her own world.

"Are you okay," I asked as she was walking off. "You seem a little bit, um, thoughtful?" She looked at me strangely, "I'm sorry if that's not the right word, but it's all I can think of."

"No," she said putting out her hand to tell me to stop talking, "I am just thinking."

I had gotten really good at reading people's faces, which was a helpful thing. "You seem almost, um, undecided."

"How do you know all this," she asked confused. "I don't think any human should know this much about someone they've never met."

"I'm the daughter of Zeus and Hera. I just understand things easier than others. What are you trying to decide on?"

"Nothing, it's just that I'm not sure what I want to do."

"Well, what are you thinking about, maybe I can help."

"I don't think you can," she said coldly.

"Let me try, your aura is tense, so this is important to you right?"

"You really want me to talk don't you?"

"Yes, because I like to talk to people and help out. Promise I won't tell anyone, and I know that this room is sound proof."

"Fine," she said unhappily. "I'm trying to decide if I agree with what the masters are doing."

"You don't want to rule the world," I said uncertain.

"No matter what people think I'm not that heartless. I know what the masters are going to do and I'm not sure if what they will do to all the humans is the right thing. I may be heartless at moments, but I'm not totally heartless all the time."

"So you're saying that you aren't completely sure if you agree with their ideas?"

"Yeah, but I'm not supposed to disagree with them."

"So, you're still and individual and you have your own mind."

"I wish I hadn't chosen this path," she said almost in tears. "I'm not totally heartless, and I wish I was just some nomad."

I couldn't tell if she was being truthful or not, but she wanted to cry by then. Who I was told was a soulless vampire didn't want her life at all. I walked up to her and took her hands, "if your feelings are true you will know when to fight back and show what you can do."

"How," she basically sobbed leaning onto me for support.

"Just trust me, you'll know. Do you want to just hang out with me for a little while until you feel a little better?" She seemed so- well- broken that I didn't understand it. She nodded her head and I lead her to sit on the couch.

We just hung out until daybreak, and then she said people were most likely getting suspicious so she had to go, but promised she would be back. I fell asleep after that, but only slept for about an hour. I turned on the TV again and surprisingly found a channel that had an aerial view of what was going on in New York City. I was surprisingly able to pick out Percy making out with Annabeth in an alleyway. I was also able to pick out Edward fighting with Victoria. I was surprised, but not really. They were just beating the heck out of each other. Luckily they kept the camera on this fight for about five minutes so I was able to watch it for a little bit. Then they went to a shot of dad and Thalia, dad was throwing lightning bolts like it didn't matter and Thalia was shooting flaming arrows two at a time, but she looked exhausted. I was happy to see that there were more demigods and gods rather than vampires, which was good, but I still had two more days to wait out in this prison. I watched about two dozen more vampires come into the battle and just then everything seemed crazy.

I heard the door open and close and looked over to see Aro enter the room. "Exciting to watch, isn't it," he asked coming to join me on the couch.

As he sat down I got up and stood behind the couch just running my fingers along the seams. "Is that what you think? I just watched five or eight of my friends be bitten and start withering in pain."

"Yes, but isn't that part of war?"

"For you it is, but for me it's just watching family die. For you the fifteen vampires I just watched go up in flames is nothing."

"Only a small price to pay to take over the gods," he mused happily as we both watched one of the wolves take down two newborns. "Is that a werewolf?"

"Yes, it would be," I said smiling. "You would be surprised what we are able to dig up."

"Yes, I guess you're right." He got up and turned to me, he was serious but somewhat happy at the same time, "I believe that there is a black and red outfit in your closet, put it on and knock three times on the door." With that he walked out and left me so confused.

I went to the closet and quickly found the outfit that Aro had been talking about. It was a strange top, it was basically a red halter top that started about two inches from the waist line. There were shorts that were really short and black with black flip-flops. I quickly put it on and decided immediately that I didn't like it. I wondered what they were going to do, most likely try to get information out of me, but I had prepared myself for this so that I wouldn't say anything. I knocked three times on the door and it was opened to reveal the two vampires that had kept me in place earlier. One pulled me out of the room, putting me between the two, and started to walk. The other pushed me forward to follow and I obediently did so. They lead me to the large room for earlier, the two pushed me to the ground and I landed silently on the ground.

"Looks like out new friend is here," Caius said completely uninterested. "Let's just start this."

The first thing I heard was a whip, and the next thing that happened was me crying out in pain. I was right, they wanted information and they weren't going to play around. They asked the questions, and I would just bite my tongue aside from the gasps from pain. It only was about an hour of this, they asked what the final attack plan was, I wouldn't answer, I would be whipped, and everything would start over again. Needed to think of something to help me, so I thought of Edward, his face, his smell, his cool kisses, how I wished he was here holding my hand. He always made things better, but he was safe-ish right now, and this is where I need to be. Finally they ended it, or I passed out from the pain, and I just sat in numbness. It all seemed so, peaceful? Okay, I passed out, maybe they would just stop. I was happy to just float in the blackness, it was peaceful, nice, and I was just happy that I couldn't hear the whip, that I couldn't feel the pain, but I wished I could feel Edward's embrace again, just one last time. If I were dead, then there wouldn't be any way for the Volturi to take over Olympus, and this would all be done.

I don't know how long I sat there, but I never thought that I would have wished for death before.

When I woke up I was back in the room I was earlier, there were bandages on my back, they were just like the pads on the band aid that were taped to me with medical tape, barely covering the injuries. I sat up and looked down at myself and found that there wasn't a shirt, or a bra. I instantly pulled the covers up over me and looked around the room to find no one there. I sighed in relief and using a pillow to cover myself up I was able to get to the closet and grab the first outfit I could find then I ran to the bathroom.

Unfortunately the outfit I picked was black short shorts, a midnight blue button up blouse that was rolled out to the shoulder, a black vest with a silver zipper, black knee high socks and black gloves with small silver zippers decorating them. I sighed and walked out into the bedroom to find that Aro was once again sitting on the couch waiting for me.

I still had the pillow with me, so I threw it at him, "what do you want?"

He easily caught the pillow and threw it back on the bed, "you didn't answer any of our questions." He looked at me like he was a little kid who had asked someone to play with him but they had said no. That in its self was creepy, but you could almost easily see the little child in him.

I went and sat down at the foot of the bed and crossed my legs, "wasn't that predictable? I mean, did you really believe that anyone would answer those questions if they were under these circumstances? No prisoner would answer to you. Anyone at the camp would rather die than tell you what you want to know."

"Yes," he said as if in thought looking back at the TV screen.

I looked up and saw that the TV was once again on the station that showed all of the fighting, and to my surprise all of the fighting was gone, the last vampire had been killed and you could see that everyone was just trying to sleep for two seconds. I felt so horrible for all of them, they were all fighting out there to save the world and I was here, trapped like a caged bird; I barely even finished the thought and I was up just pacing around. I started to do some easy kicks and punches that were just basics, but it didn't help at all I was restless, even though my back hurt I just needed to run.

"Are you okay," Aro asked uncertain. I think that he was more so testing my sanity and not my well being. If you're only prisoner is mentally insane then you are going to be in trouble down the road.

I couldn't answer; I just kept pacing for a few more minutes and walked over to him, "I really need to run. I just really need to do something."

"You aren't leaving this room," he said still watching the TV.

"If I don't I swear that I will kill someone." I walked over to him and looked him dead in the eye, "I don't joke Aro; it's something that I don't do."

"No one here is afraid of you Isabella, no one. You can't threaten us."

"I may not be able to threaten you, but I will never give you the information you want."

Then something seemed to dawn on him, "it won't matter soon, will it? Soon this will all be over because this will end tomorrow. As you can see on the TV it's sunset and within the hour we are going to finish this."

That's when I understood, he was going to send out the guard tonight which meant that his will all be over in 24 hours. Aro got up and left, while all I could do was shut off the TV and get ready.

Hey! Okay, so there is a poll up on my profile for the next story I will write. It'll be up until Sunday and I would really like it if everyone who read this story voted and told me what they wanted me to write next. If you would prefer anything else than please PM me with what you would like me to write, although what is on the poll I have either read or watched on TV. I promise that this story will end soon, but please stay with me for a little longer!
Love
