I sat on my bed Running all the events of the past few months over and over again in my head. It didn't seem plausable that Tanya had died. And I was sure that while sitting here, locked away in the solitude of my room, that someone else had been killed by this mysterious assasin. I'd cried for weeks after losing my second sister. I was the last of the Denali sisters. And it pained me to think that I could be next. I thought all hope was lost.
Until a particular day in late June bought my attention to a key aspect of what was happening.
As I stared out the window. There was a feeble knock at the front door. I smelt. It was Peter.
"Hello?" Garrett answered the door.
"Hello Garrett...they found Jasper" Peter swallowed
"I'm sorry..." Garrett paused "Any news on the killer?"
"No...Alice said she saw a mysterious force in the vision...trying to get at Jasper.."
A mysterious force. I frowned slightly thinking back to the day of my attack.
I screamed as he shot a giant fist towards my chest. Then out of know where a second tree began to fall
Out of no where I thought. A tree just doesn't fall out of no where. I then thought back to what Peter rambled on everyday after Charlotte death.
Peter was convinced she had survived. He kept remind everyone before the memorial that she wasn't dead.
I then remembered what Garrett said at the memorial.
"Come on, think about it. Charlotte just so happens to die when the volturi leave..."
There were some mutters from the crowd.
"But why would they kill Charlotte?" Edward asked
Garrett turned to him "Because...Charlotte was a threat.."
"A threat to who!" Carmen gasped
Garrett Paused "themselves"
"What are you saying" Peter slowly rose
"that they're the creators..."
I then thought even further back. To last year, in December when we discovered Charlotte's secret.
"I...I don't know what your talking bout..." she said not making eye contact with Eleazar who had walked to face her
"Your power Charlotte... the power of invisibility..."
I then remembered the day they came to visit after Peter was attacked.
"Now, we all know recent events have been troublsome...but no fear we have a plan to rid us of the problems" Aro said calmly
"And that is?" Mary asked frowning
"We simply kill them and their creator"
Charlottes head suddenly snapped up looking at Aro. I expected her to burst out into tears and run off, for some reason; but to my surprise she was fuming.
"What." She asked sourly
"We plan to kill the Newborns" Alec said in a monotone, looking at her
"...that won't stop them" she hissed
"Excuse me..." Jane replied looking up
"Killing them will only make things. A whole. Lot. Worse. You, don't know the severity of this situation. We're not talking about 40 or 60 newborns..." Charlotte paused "we're talking about 1000's..."
Jane exchanged looks with Alec, something questioning in their look made me worry a bit. Suddenly, Jane turned to Charlotte shooting her with pain. Charlotte suddenly screamed and fell off the couch. I immeaditly ran to her spazzing body since everyone else seemed dettered by her horrific screams.
"STOP!" She cried "PLEASE!"
"How do you know so much?" Jane asked coldly
Charlotte tried to reply but only screams erupted from her throat.
"Jane..thats enough" Aro glared at her
Jane obliged and Charlotte stopped screaming; she just lay beside my knees shaking.
"Is this information you tell us true?" Alec asked Charlotte as I helped her to her feet
"Yes" she wimpered
"Do you know whos doing it" Jane asked
"Yes! Yes" Charlotte cried
"Who then Char?" Jasper asked frowning
"..." she shook her head
"Tell us..." Jane said slyly
"I ...swore..I wouldn't..."
"Char...I think you should tell them" Jasper placed a hand on her shoulder
She shrugged it away "Its..."
"Is it Maria" Jasper asked frowning harder
Charlotte shook her head,,,,
The way Jane had reacted so violently to Charlotte knowing so much.
Suddenly, Jane turned to Charlotte shooting her with pain. Charlotte suddenly screamed and fell off the couch. I immeaditly ran to her spazzing body since everyone else seemed dettered by her horrific screams.
"STOP!" She cried "PLEASE!"
"How do you know so much?" Jane asked coldly
The way Charlotte was reluctant to tell.
"Do you know whos doing it" Jane asked
"Yes! Yes" Charlotte cried
"Who then Char?" Jasper asked frowning
"..." she shook her head
"Tell us..." Jane said slyly
"I ...swore..I wouldn't..."
And I remembered the way Aro looked at her. As if he was reminding her of something.
Something
something
something
I stood suddenly. I knew who the killer was. I ran, bursting through the door and bolting down the stairs. Garrett and Peter gave me a odd look as I ran past them.
"Kate?" Garrett said shocked that I had left my room
"I KNOW WHO'S CREATING THE NEWBORNS I KNOW WHOS THEIR CREATOR!" I screamed running towards the cullens.
I knew who was creating the newborns. I knew who'd ordered them to kill my friends and sister. I know why Charlotte disappeared. They had motive. We were bigger and stronger than them. They were the kings over us and they were about to be over thrown.
Once and for all.
