Prompt: Devastation
"The pain cut through me and I could do nothing to stop it. Though my memories were blurry, that pain was the one thing I remember from my human life. When he left, the giant sinking hole in my chest was all I could feel and now it was back, worse than my memories could ever conjure up. My vampire brain processed it on higher levels and it was mind numbing.
How is it possible? After one-hundred and fifty years of being together, he left. Again. The years were beautiful. We never left one another's side. Until that day. Even I, who abhored human blood almost killed her. Edward, did. In a classroom of students, he lost control. My perfect, sel-controlled, Edward turned the classroom into a bloodbath. He killed the entire class but her in a matter of seconds. I couldn't stop him. I sat there in horror as he fed from her. My phone flashed with Alice's number, but it was too late. The rest of the Cullens were gone that day. Emmett and Rosalie had been gone from the family living on their own for quite some time. Alice and Jasper were in the remote jungles of South America visiting Zephrina and her family. Nessie and Jake had returned to La Push after being gone for seventy-five years.
After he fed he took off. I was left there t clean up and cover his tracks. It was not easy let me tell you. I had to fake a school shooting. It was the only way.
I thought he needed time. He was gone for over a month when I started to worry. I asked around, talking to every vampire in the world that I knew, except you. I figured it would be the last place he would go. Apparently I was wrong."
"I'm sorry, dear child." Aro answered in lilting Italian accent. I curled into a ball right there on the granite floor. Dry sobs wracked my body. "We had no choice. He came into Voterra and began killing like a newborn. He refused to stop until we killed him."
My body was numb. My mind was numb, but my vampiric hearing and brain wouldn't allow me to not process what Aro was telling me. Minute passed until I forced my body to move and look at Aro.
He looked at me with sympathy and shook his head. "You are going to force our hand," he stated without a doubt in his mind. "Ah, well. What a pity to lose both of you. You would have been my crowning jewels in my guard."
I moved to kneel in front of him and pictured Edward in my head. Standing in front of me dressed in white, I closed my eyes as I felt Aro's hands on either side of my head. I looked at Edward and whispered, "I told you so."
Whew! I need uppers or something. Geez that was depressing. I know now why I don't write the shit.
That was by far the most scared I've ever been to post something. It's not my style so I'm really nervous to here y'all's reaction. *bites nails *
