Chapter 25: Danger Everywhere
Nessie's POV
The reunion was a tense one. We didn't have much time to be happy that we were all together again as we had to start planning our next move. According to aunt Alice we had a littles less than a day before the Volturi's plane landed. The flight from Italy to Hawaii was a long one. Around twenty hours. Yet I knew those hours would go by super fast.
"The problem is that the truth is already out," grandpa said. "The law was not only broken. It was completely shattered,"
Completely shattered. I repeated those two words over and over in my head. I didn't just break what was apparently the most sacred of all vampire laws. I had completely shattered it. I would go down in history, both human and vampire history, in a very infamous way. This was not exactly what I had planned out for my life.
I started to go crazy just sitting here and listening to how we were pretty much doomed. So I decided to sneak away. Yeah I knew my family would probably be pretty pissed when they noticed that I was gone but at this point I didn't really care. I was going to die tomorrow anyway so what was the point?
My stomach growled loudly. Reminding me once again that I hadn't eaten in over a day. My first stop was to get some breakfast at McDonald's. As soon as the employees and other customers saw me they all left the restaurant in a hurry. I went into the kitchen and heated up a frozen Mcgriddle. I sat in there alone in the restaurant but it felt nice to be by myself honestly.
I didn't really have a plan for what I was going to do next. As soon as I finished my meal I left. The sun was shining brightly today. A stark contrast to what the weather has been like for the last few weeks. Maybe this would stop my family from looking for me for at least a few hours. Then again maybe not. I guess it didn't matter anymore if vampires walked out in the sunlight.
There was danger in the air. I could sense it. It sent a shiver down my spine. There was danger everywhere nowadays. Then I heard the sound of an animal growling behind me. It was large reddish brown wolf. Like my brothers but only bigger. The animal sprang toward me. I ran as fast as my feet would allow.
The creature was able to keep up with me easily though. I was going to die today. Forget dying tomorrow my time was up right now. Leaving my family was a really bad idea. I wouldn't be able to fight this animal unless I turned into one myself. Like a tiger or a lion. The wolf tried to bite me several times but I managed to jump out of the way.
Suddenly the animal levitated and flew backwards. Hitting a wall and leaving a huge whole in the process. The animal got up, dazed, and tried to go after me again. I instinctively concentrated on the animal and the same thing happened again. At first I didn't know what was happening. But then when I looked at a rock and concentrated really hard I realized it was me that was doing this.
Dad said that some vampires have gifts. Maybe I had one too. Maybe I had some kind of psychic powers thay were just barely coming in. Like the rest of my vampire powers. I took advantage of the wolf's confusion and made a run for it.
I kept running and running until I ran into something ice cold and as hard as a rock. The force of the collision knocked me over. It was my dad. Staring at me coldly with his arms across his chest. His skin glittered like a thousand diamonds in the sun.
"Renesmee Carlie Cullen I told you not to disappear on us like this. Why do you keep sneaking away?"
"I'm sorry dad but I just-"
"But nothing Renesmee when I tell you to do something you need to listen. Do you understand?"
"Yes," I whispered in defeat. "Dad there's something I should tell you. I was being chased by a wolf right now,"
"A wolf?"
"Yes. I think it was one of them shapeshifters mom told me about,"
"Jacob," dad was angry. His eyes were pitch black now. "I swear to God I am going to kill that mutt for everything he's done to my family," he said. "I can hear his thoughts. His pack is here but that won't stop me,"
"Dad what are you-"
"It doesn't matter Renesmee we need to get you out of here. This time you better stay with the family. I am dead serious Renesmee. If you sneak off one more time..."
Although dad didn't finish his sentence I could hear the seriousness in his voice.
"So I guess walking around in the sunlight isn't a big deal anymore is it?" I asked, hoping to lighten the mood a bit.
"No. Why bother now? The secret is out. But we do need to get back,"
Dad held onto my arm as if I were a little kid he thought might run away. I guess I deserve it after disappearing on him again when he specifically told me not to. When we got back everyone was waiting for me. I got a huge lecture about safety. After that they started keeping an eye on me at all times so I wouldn't leave again.
Honestly I had no desire to leave the safety of my family after the incident with the wolf. Soon enough night came again. If it were not for uncle Jasper using his gift on me I wouldn't have gotten any sleep that night. When I opened my eyes again it was daylight.
"I can't believe that it's already morning and we still don't have a plan," dad said.
"They're here," I heard aunt Alice say. "Their plane just touched down at the airport. I see all of them Aro, Caius, Marcus, the entire guard. They're all here,"
