Silence fell over the room, as everyone looks at me like I have gone insane. This just made me feel worse.
"Are you sure, it's you?" Edward managed to enquire.
"Yes, I do." I said, still scared out of my wits.
"But why?" Carlisle asked, clearly worried for me.
"Cus when I was trying to get my teacher to not turn me. She said that she was going to turn so we could be a family." I regretfully said.
"So Aro turned her to get to you." Edward said. "Now he is probably on his way to get you and take you back to their home."
"But I don't want to be evil." I said, getting more scared by the second.
"Then you'll have to hide." Rosalie finally stepped in.
"But what about my family, my friends and you guys?" I replied. "How will I know you won't rat me out and tell them were I am, due to your fear of them?"
"Then don't tell us where you are going." Rosalie said.
"But you can sense where I am." I replied. "They can."
"Then you can't stay in one place for too long." Carlisle said. "You'll have to run."
"So I have to run from them for all eternity." I said. "What about all the humans? What will happen to them?"
"They won't hurt them." Carlisle replied. "They only want you and knowing Aro. He'll want you to be happy to see him. You'll be too precious, and he will probably think a line of corpses will displease you."
"What will he do, if he finds me?" I asked.
"He'll make you his perfect daughter." Carlisle answered.
"How do you know all this, by the way?"
"I used to be one of them. I was Aro's second."
"Oh. That makes sense."
"You better get going." Said Edward pushing me out the door. He was definitely in a hurry for me to go. They must be close.
"Can I at least say goodbye to my parents?"
"We'll tell them." Carlisle replied. "Don't worry."
"Ok." I said, as I left the Cullen's house.
I finished packing and decided to go to a little town called Mystic Falls. I go there when I want to get away from the safe walls of Camelot. It is a place full of supernatural beings, mostly vamps.
"You decided where you wanna go?" Edward asked.
"Yeah." I replied.
"Just keep your head down and don't make it clear that you are in that area, as that will cause the Volturi to come straight to you. Finally, don't ever give up."
"K. Thanks for the advice."
Then I dashed to the citadel, where it was busy well with people rushing this way and that, from stool to stool, buying various amounts of herbs and spices. Then, it was like the whole world stood still, but I could feel an immense power enter the walls of Camelot. They were here. Through the bustle of human life, I could see Leah with a scared look on her face. She was with people wearing black cloaks. It was the Volturi. I had to fight their presence and got past. This is going to be tough, I put my hood over my head and began to briskly walk through the crowds of people, my head down, towards the exit of Camelot.
Near the exit, I accidently bumped into the shoulder of someone.
"Sorry." I said roughly, my head down. I tried to step forward, but my arm was caught in someone's hand. I tilted my head to see who had my arm in a tight grip. I saw the black cloak and tensed up, not moving a muscle. I was caught by the Volturi already and haven't even started my run from them.
"Alec." A man said with a soothing voice, but pure evil.
"This girl bumped into me. I suggest we deal with her." Alec replied. I could assume he meant kill me or turn me.
"Did she say sorry?"
"Yes, but…"
"But. Nothing. We don't want to cause a scene. Plus, we want Bella to join us willingly. That won't happen if we leave a trail of bodies."
When he said my name a chill went through my spine. How could he know my name?
"Okay." Alec said, loosening his grip. "But we can, at least ask her for directions or see if she knows your daughter."
"Fair enough." The man replied. "Leah, do you want to do the honours?"
"Yes." Leah answered, with reluctance in her voice. She made her way towards the front of me and put her hand on my chin, so it could be raised. As our eyes met, she looked at me with pure fear. Was she going to tell them?
"Don't worry." Leah told me, telepathically. "I won't tell Aro that you are here."
"But why?" I managed to say telepathically, not knowing how I am doing it, even though it seemed so natural.
"Cus I don't want them to get you."
"Now do you know a person called Bella Pendragon?" Leah asked. The mind tricks were clearly gone.
"Yes, she is the king's daughter." I replied confidently, hoping that Aro wouldn't jump in to speed things up. "Why do you ask?"
"Just wondering where she is. She has requested my help on an English assignment."
"I am sorry. I don't know where she is at this present time. I would suggest the training grounds."
"Thank you for your help."
Leah left to be next to the man, who instructed her to question me.
"I'm sorry, Aro. She doesn't know where your daughter is."
"You mean our daughter, Leah." Aro replied, sending another shiver down my spine. "Alec, you can let her go now."
And with that Alec let me go and I ran away as fast as I could.
"Thank you." I managed to send to Leah, before leaving Camelot.
