I do not own the Twilight Saga only this plot


Down the Rabbit's hole

Chapter Two: Pawn on a Chessboard

It was the Volturi.

Technically it was only a guard from the Volturi, Demetri to be exact, the best vampire tracker there is. Frozen, my eyes continued to stare at him, his red eyes; a sharp shade of red violet, as if those contacts did any good. In fact, they did worse for him, making him seem more ominous, dangerous; a killer.

My throat was dry, and not a word escaped my mouth, not even a scream. I looked back at Jake, who was enjoying his time, trying to beat the carnival game totally oblivious to what was happening to me. "Renesmee, we must be going, being around this many people is making me quite thirsty."

I froze at the word.

The way it was said, sounded so cruel, dark, so inhumane even for a vampire. When my family said the word, it was said with a much lighter tone, as if they were human. Though my family and the Volturi were the same, they were so different in many ways, as if they were one word with two different connotations.

As he began to drag me with him, a word finally escaped my lips. "Jake…" the word was barely a whisper, hoarse and weak, helpless and afraid. Suddenly my voice became much stronger, "Jake!"

Demetri glared at me slightly, "Well I really hoped it didn't have to come to this…" his grasp on me became tighter, as Jake drew closer to us. "Renesmee…" Jacob's panicked cry became deaf to my ears, as Demetri ran in human speed dragging me along with him.

"Demetri," Dad's voice was cold as ice, harsh and demanding. "Let go if my daughter." Mom's voice was even worse, and it seems as if she was trembling even worse than Dad. As the moments past by, I saw my family one by one, appear surrounding Demetri.

He wasn't afraid; no even flinching when he saw Jacob trembling with eyes more dangerous than fire. Aunt Rosalie was glowering at him darkly, and even Uncle Emmet's smiling face was serious. Grandpa Carlisle and Grandma Esme eyes were both filled with worry and anger. Aunt Alice's fists were clenched, while Uncle Jasper was glare was intensified from the emotions from my family.

"This really isn't the proper place to talk…with all these humans about." Demetri said with a grin plastered on his face, as he turned his around facing Jacob, Mom and Dad. "One move and Renesmee here…" he trailed off, there was no need to finish the sentence, and everyone knew the end of that sentence.

"Fine," The moment I heard my Grandpa Carlisle say those words, I started to wonder why no one else even dared to speak. After a brief moment of pondering this, I realized none of them even have the self control to even speak to a Volturi guard at the moment. Dad, Mom, Jake, and Aunt Rosalie would be more aggressive than Grandma Esme, Aunt Alice, and Uncle Jasper, but either way anger would explode from all of them.

"Follow me."

My family followed Demetri out of the amusement park, oblivious to the laughter around them, and even more oblivious to the stares. They just followed blankly, arm in arm with their significant other, except for Jake who glowered at Demetri from behind.

I watched as Demetri grabbed the car keys from his pocket, before he pushed me into the passenger seat. "Bowring Park, near that Peter Pan statue, you'll find us there." Demetri said, before sliding in his car. "I am telling the truth, ask your little mind reader," he smirked at my Dad, who glared in response. We waited for my family to go in their respectable cars, before driving off, only to arrive there, in less than half the time it normally took.

During the car I was silent, just listening to the radio play in the car, before he spoke up, "Were you going to come?"

"What?" I questioned him, I was truly puzzled now. Sensing this he elaborated this a bit more, "You know that note that said, Bowring Park at one a.m-"

"The note that was hidden in my book of fairytales?"

"I really don't know where it was hidden; I just had to track you when you didn't appear. Alec probably hidden it there…"

"Alec?"

"The second in command to this whole kidnapping plan."

"Who's the first in command?"

"Aro, Marcus, and Caius obviously…" Demetri rolled his eyes as if he couldn't believe that I couldn't even see the most obvious thing, before going back to the question, "Well were you going to come here?"

I didn't answer being afraid of both betraying my family by meeting the Volturi and by Demetri's anger if I told him I simply showed no interest in that note. Instead of choosing my family side, I told him, "I actually was going to go. I just was having too much, fun I lost track of time. Besides, when I did realize it, you showed up…"

"You were too late, when it came to realizing. I honestly wished you went quietly; it would have saved me the trouble of tracking you. First I had to get your scent, then I just followed, the smell of a dog," he crinkled his nose in disgust think of the smell, yet amusement twinkled his eyes.

I was about to say something in Jake's defense, but we were already reached the park. I held my breath as he led me out the car, towards my family. Mom, Dad, Jacob….all of them just stood there, their eyes only showed a bit of relief upon looking at me.

"What took you so long?" Jake questioned harshly.

"We had a little interrogation in the car, and I am pleased to announce that Renesmee passed the test!" Demetri replied mocking enthusiasm. I had a sudden urge to say "yay me!" mimicking his fervent tone, but thought better of it, and kept my mouth shut. "Anyways, follow me; it seems that you all were waiting for us, instead of going straight on ahead. I feel touched."

"We did it for Renesmee, not for you bloodsucking leech," Jake's growled, his eyes never leaving mine.

"Watch your temper, mutt you'll never know what will happen to little Renesmee, here and besides if I am a bloodsucking leech doesn't that mean Renesmee is too," Demetri taunted, before continuing to lead the way. Not even bothering to listen to Jacob mutter some intelligible response under his breath, I studied the surroundings around me and began to find this park much more frightening than ever. Even the duck pond that we passed, seemed like it was holding black swans, and the water seemed to be eerily black. As for the roses and the other flowers we passed, seemed to be a very deep shade of red appearing to be black.

I was in such deep thought during this walk, that I jumped startled from the abrupt halt. I lifted my head up, and watched silently as one by one Volturi guards started to appear. First Felix appeared, then Heidi, after her came Corin. Demetri walked over to them, dragging me along, as if I was one of those roller backpacks.

Even though my family outnumbered them, they were still nervous, I quickly understood why as the final hooded figure came from the shadows. Though being the shortest of them all, he seemed to be the most powerful, mentally and probably even physically.

And when he took of his hood, he let his gaze fall on my family, and then on his guard before his eyes looked into mine. His eyes…they were even more frightening than Demetri's. His eyes were a perfect red, the color of rose, the color of blood, yet they held so much darkness causing an eerie beauty from his ominous gaze.

Alec.

That's who he was, I may not have been given such a gaze by someone before, but still I know a Volturi guard when I see one. I should especially know the most ruthless one. He was worse than Jane, more powerful and more deadly than her mere illusion of pain. Pain was a feeling, but he made you cease to feel anything, and I felt that way right now as if I was under his spell. There was a portentous aura from him, as if he knows how important he really is.

And when his hand reached towards me, reaching out to caress my check as if I was sort of animal, a healthy shade of red seemed to appear on my face. When I looked passed Alec, I could see Jacob glowering at him, the intensity of the glare worse than the one he gave Demetri. My father had a look of angry confusion, leading me to believe that Alec's mind was blank. He had cleared his mind, in such a way that it makes me thinks he had completely masked out his thoughts. It must have been much easier for him, if my theory is right, he must be much older than my father in terms of immortality.

"Renesmee, do you remember me? Do you remember any of us?" He whispered to me, his voice was just like his eyes. Beautiful with a sense of darkness, making it seem that his beautiful voice was just masking his true emotions. His actions towards me seemed like a façade, just to taunt my family, to feel the anger illuminate them.

I extended my hand, and waited for him to touch it, I couldn't even find my voice, being so choked up in fear, and I couldn't even touch him. I was too afraid.

He glanced at me for a second and accepted; I showed him what I remember of that day the images of the Volturi guards, including himself and his sister. I also showed him Aro, Marcus, and Caius, and the rest that I could remember, before I let my hand be pulled away from his grip.

"Intriguing power as always, Renesmee," he murmured before turning back to face the rest of them, while I just stood there, shackled by Demetri's grip once again. "It seems that she remembers all of us, Aro will be very pleased."

I noted how he didn't mention the other two, but realized though they were equal in power, Aro was more eccentric when it came to being vampire monarchy. I glanced back at my family helplessly, surprised at their dark silence. But as I let my gaze fall on each and every one of their gazes, I realized Jake wasn't here.

It seems that Felix also realized this as well, which seemed quite obvious when he said, "Where is the mutt?"

At that instant Jake sprang out, leaping out towards the guards momentarily distracting them. Demetri let go of me and to join the fight, while my family started to join in along with Jake. A strong pair of arms grabbed me, which turned out to be Alec's. He silently started dragging me away from the fight, as if using Jacob's plan against him, therefore making him a winner, and making me feel like a pawn in a game of chess.

I kept following him, until he pushed me roughly into the passenger seat of a car just like Demetri and made for a quick getaway. While I just sat there, my mind and body blank and empty, unable to process what had just happened, before I fell into oblivion, much darker than the night.


Well hello to all my readers, much thanks goes to my reviewers, i would love to list you all out, but it is getting late and my parents are nagging at me to go to sleep. This happens every time i upload a chapter. So in the beginning how many of you thought it was Alec? I seriously did, until i realized it shouldn't be Alec, Demetri is the most suitable one because he is the BEST tracker ever. I checked Twilight Wiki for reference. This is much longer than it needs to be cause i couldn't find a way to make it stop. I was going to stop with Alec's apperance, but then it didn't sound right. I'm sorry if this ending is crappy.

One thing i probably forgot to mention is that St. Johns, Canada is a real place so Bowring Park is real, and so is that Peter Pan statue.

I really hope you are reading this AN...i feel loved.

Artist/Band of this chapter-Scouting for Girls-Heartbeat and James Bond...(had not inspired me at all)

Last thing to say-Review.

Seriously Review.

And thank you.
