Chapter two: Is that her?
Edward's POV
I walked down the stairs with my luggage to go to Volterra for a stupid ball. Apparently they had a new leader who had the most power in our supernatural world. Pff, like that was true. Everyone looked up to me, Jasper feeling my boredom.
C'mon Edward, I know you want to go. The new leader is very cute, you can talk to her. Or have some sort of fun?
Leave it to Alice to make me feel guilty about not wanting to go. Just the thought of me falling in love with the new leader was heartbreaking; I never for one second stop thinking of Bella. My angel. When I heard the news that she fell in the forest that night I left her and it her temple on a rock and died made me feel so bad for leaving her there. I was stupid. I should have brought her back to her house instead of leaving her in the middle of the forest. She had promised me she was going to be okay, she had lied. I can't blame her; I lied to her for her own good. But I still can't grasp that my Bella is gone. For 200 years I've wanted to kill myself, maybe go to the Volturi or set myself on fire. But Alice and Esme kept me from doing anything. I stayed in my room for a couple years, didn't hunt, didn't speak. Carlisle came up often to try and get me out.
''Everyone ready? Let's head to the airport, we're going to be late'' Emmett pulled me out of my trance.
We headed to the airport in my Volvo and the Mercedes. Our plan boarded once we got to the terminal. In 7 short hours we'll be stepping into Volterra.
I feel so bad for him, not once has he stopped thinking of her. I know you can hear me Edward. Just please be happy during our visit and don't think of anything stupid. I'll have Jasper keep an eye on you.
Great even Esme was worried about me and Jasper was watching me already.
''I'm not going to do anything stupid, alright?''
''I'm sure you are. Edward we know you love her but you have to move on, she was a human. Nothing.'' Rosalie did it. I hated it when she spoke about Bella that way.
''SHUT THE HELL UP ROSE! You have no idea what she meant to me. Just because you wanted to be human doesn't me you can hate her.'' Suddenly half the passengers were looking at me. Great, all I needed right now was an audience. And I had made Rose upset. Soon or later Emmett was holding her in his arms, comforting her. I just wanted to hold Bella in my arms when I saw couples like this. But she was gone.
I turned towards Alice who was having a vision.
She looked beautiful, black hair reaching the middle of her back and was wearing a red dress showing off a lot of cleavage and uncovering all of her back.
'' This is one of our knew leaders, may I introduce Isabella!'' Aro shouted
Everyone automatically bowed down to her; I could see that she didn't like this since she didn't acknowledged it. Aro turned to her, and spoke into her ear.
''Behave my princess. I know you're hurting but please enjoy yourself. You've been in the dumps for two hundred years. Smile.'' She nodded, and then turned around.
''Welcome my friends; I hope you will enjoy yourself tonight. If not you will suffer the consequences.'' Her voice was harsh and cold but at the same time a beautiful music.
She then looked towards Alice and I gasped once I saw her blue eyes.
I looked back to Alice who was in shock. Blue eyes?
''That's the weirdest thing, how can she have blue eyes? All vampires have either red or gold?'' She spoke like it was a riddle.
''I guess we'll found out tonight.''
Our plane landed, we all walked out into the parking lot. By now, everyone was puzzled over the blue-eyed beauty. We found the car that Carlisle had rented for the couple of days we were staying. It was 6 and the ball started at 8. We didn't have much time so we rushed to the Volturi Castle to be greeted by Demetri, he opened the doors to let us in. Soon we were standing among five hundred other vampires.
''Since you're all staying a couple days I will lead you to your rooms'' He spoke leading us up the stairs while giving us a tour of the castle. We reached a long black staircase at the end of one of the halls; the doors at the top were a blood red color.
''This is her room''. He spoke like she was royalty.
''Who's her?'' Alice asked.
''She is the princess of the Volturi and is very important. No one must ever threaten her or else they die. Trust me she can kick the breath out of everyone.''
''Is she more important than Aro?'' Jasper asked this time, confused with the man emotion. Scared.
''Yes, she is the most powerful vampire to live yet.'' He said then mouthed too bad she hadn't found a mate in her 200 years.
''What are her powers if she's so powerful'' Carlisle was always interested in new information.
''She can shield herself, teleport, telekinesis, she has a strength that no one has ever seen, she can control the weather, read minds and the most mind blowing thing is she has three types of fire.'' We all stared in shock, that she had many gifts.
''What are the types of fire?'' This time Emmett asked to know something.
''The red flames are to burn, the blue flames are to cause an electric circuit bolt through you, it's approximately 5 000 W and the black flames are to take your power and kill you without burning you. It's very impressive.'' He seemed like this was a shock to him.
'' May we meet her?'' Esme asked intrigued by the mystery.
''No one that hasn't met her yet must speak to her before her coronation''.
''Coronation?'' I asked in wonder.
''Yes, she is being crowned princess this evening''. He said with joy in his voice.
We started down the hall but just before the staircase was out of view Rosalie spoke up.
''What is her name?'' She asked with malice in her voice.
''Her name is Isabella''. He said like it was gold.
I stumbled at her name. Isabella? Bella. My Bella? No, I can't get caught up; her name could be just a coincidence. I looked at everyone else who was as shocked as I was. We continued walking until we saw a women walk towards us. Demetri pushed us all aside.
'' Don't move''. He whispered. She kept walking towards us. She had the same looks as in Alice's vision. Demetri looked at her.
''Good evening your majesty.'' He spoke with dignity as if he didn't she would kill him. She walked towards him.
''Now, now Demetri. I asked you not to call me that, you know how I feel about being served. But thank-you. Have a lovely time at the ball''. Her voice a smooth melody.
''Yes, Isabella. I hope I get a dance with you?'' She glared at him. Her eyes slowly turning black, and then turned back to the soft baby blue.
''Maybe, if I feel like it''. She spoke harshly and walked towards her staircase. I quickly sucked in a breath. It smelled like strawberries, it smelled like Bella!
''Mmm, feisty.'' Demetri whispered. I heard a gasp coming from her and her guards.
''I HEARD THAT DEMETRI'' She shrieked. Anger rising.
He laughed and started walking towards the other end of the hall and stopped in front of four doors and held his hands out towards them.
''Here are your rooms, you may choose who gets whatever. You have an hour until you are needed downstairs on the ball room.''
I could see the eyes of Alice and Rosalie widen. Here we go again, I could picture it in my mind.
''Only an hour? This barely gives us anytime to get ready, this sucks.'' Alice always got mad at the time to prepare.
''I know. I don't even know what dress I'm going to wear! This sucks. We better get ready soon.'' Rosalie, what a drama queen.
''See you guys in an hour!'' Then they rushed into one room to get ready,
As usual I would get a room to myself. I quickly got into a tux, and made a face once I saw myself in the mirror. Why did I have to wear this stupid suit? Just to impress the new princess, she was powerful. So it was true that she had many powers. I walked into the hall and followed my family down to the ballroom floor, which was flooded with more vampires than before.
