I just wanted to let Jayleen-Cullen-Whitlock-Hale that i might take you up on your idea ;)
Chapter 15: Truth
Bella's POV
I was going crazy; I kept seeing myself die in my head. I couldn't die; I don't burn like normal vampires. I couldn't think properly, it kept coming and coming in my head, a man's voice in my head.
You're dying Isabella.
What was happening to me? I was going crazy and I was in pain, no one could make me even feel pain! I was frustrated and all I needed right now was to get away. I knew I wasn't acting properly and hurt Edward, I didn't mean to hurt him. I couldn't pull myself away when his lips crushed down onto mine, all the pain went away until I pushed him off. I couldn't fall for him easily, I needed to get away and speak to Aro. I teleported back to Volterra and went running into the castle.
''HELP ME! STOP THE PAIN'' The voice started again and was louder than ever, I couldn't move, I was frozen and felt nothing but an electric circuit going through my body. I could see everyone rushing to me and grabbing me up to my room. I couldn't stop screaming at the pain. The last thing I heard was Aro's voice.
'' Everything is going to be okay Isabella, you're fine.'' I could feel myself become weaker, slipping into nothingness. I felt like I was dying and all I could think of was Edward. I never got to tell him how I still felt about him, I was too busy with getting him back. I whispered faintly that I loved him and hoped that he would get the message. Alex carried me upstairs; he was one of the new trainees. He set me down on my bed and everything went black. The pain was hard, I could sense everyone around me was worried. I could hear their faint voices and wish that I could tell them not to worry about me, if I were to die I would want to hear Edwards voice one last time. I pictured his god like features when the pain spiked, his wonderful bronze hair and gold orbs that dazzled me so much. I didn't scream when the pain was unbearable, I wouldn't give whoever or whatever that was doing this to me the satisfaction. I was dying and full aware about it. I silently told everyone that I loved to find someone who would fill their hearts and made them the happiest person. I didn't want my family to mope around in loneliness like I had for last two hundred years, no one deserved that fate. I guess it was my fate that I would die, like they say, the more powerful they are the bigger they fall or something along the lines of that. I was too powerful for my own good. The voice grew louder and soon overwhelmed me, this time it didn't say the same thing over again.
You're dying and nothing will stop me from killing you. Any last words?
I screamed to him that I wanted to see Edward one more time that I could tell him that I loved him but the voice never answered. I was going crazy and every single good thing in my life was being ripped away. I wanted to cry, I just couldn't help it. I wanted his arms to wrap themselves around me and protect me. But I was aware that it wouldn't happen, I was going to suffer alone.
It slowly got harder to breathe; even if we didn't need it was difficult. My body was going limp and I couldn't move anymore, any feeling and every feeling was gone from my body. I was dead, I could feel my existence come to an end and let it happen. I couldn't fight back, I couldn't speak to the voice to compromise.
Edward's POV
The others arrived slowly after I returned to the mansion, they seemed content with themselves but that suddenly left their faces when they saw the mess in the piano room and in the bedroom hallway. Alice had seen it happen so she didn't question me but the others did.
''What the hell happened while we were gone?'' Caius was first to speak to my surprise.
''What did you do to her?'' Demetri spat in my face as he came up to me.
''I did nothing, it was all her.'' I put my hands up in the air.
''Explain now, peasant.'' I didn't think Felix was one for name-calling.
''Well, I went to speak to her upstairs and she got upset when I grabbed her arm. She threw me into the wall and almost burnt me, and then she disappeared. I came down here to see what was the cause of a noise I heard, I found that her room was thrashed and followed the track she made.'' I took in a breath and looked up at their smiling faces. ''I found her in a clearing and she was going crazy, she kicked me into a tree and started choking me with her stiletto heel. She fell back and started shaking on the ground saying get out of my head. She calmed down and I kissed her.'' Their smiles soon fell off their faces but my family was silently rejoicing. ''Then she transported somewhere.'' I finished and turned to Marcus who looked in pain.
Everyone settled back into the mansion and went to their usual business, only Caius and Marcus as well as myself we're still wondering where Bella had gone.
We were playing around in the games room when Marcus' cell phone went off. He picked it up and answered, I could hear a rushed voice and someone screaming in the back as well has people rushing around.
''Hello?'' Marcus answered.
''Marcus, you must all pack your things including the Cullen family and head back to Volterra immediately. I have already sent the private jet to the island.'' His voice sounded worried.
''Will do Aro but can I ask why?'' He waited before answering.
''Isabella is in trouble; she appeared earlier today and came in shouting for help and to stop the pain. She's been unconscious and keeps screaming and shaking in pain.'' I gasped as I heard this, I wasn't the only one. Everyone else went to their rooms and started packing.
''What do you mean unconscious?'' Marcus asked feverishly.
''Well I'm not sure, her eyes are open and keep switching in between blue and green but we keep waving our hands in front of them and she doesn't move at all. The screaming has stopped for now but she keeps muttering that she doesn't want to die, she keeps telling some voice to let her say something to someone.'' Felix returned to listen and went stiff when he heard what Aro said.
Everyone came down in this moment with his or her luggage and headed directly for the door, Alice motioned me that she had packed all my stuff and that everyone was ready to leave. I still couldn't believe that my Bella was in pain, it tormented me. Marcus hung up the phone and was out waiting on the beach immediately, he looked up and there landed a jet. We rushed forward and took a seat inside, Felix and Demetri greeted the pilot and took their seats with their mates. Here I was all alone while everyone else was cuddling with his or her lovers, I wanted Bella in my arms so badly. I loved her and needed her, I couldn't live without her. If she died, I would beg someone to kill me. We landed in Volterra a couple short hours later and I rushed towards a car. I got stuck with Victoria and Demetri, I couldn't wrap my head around them dating. I sighed and closed my eyes trying to block everyone's mind from mine, the thoughts I was getting from Demetri was disgusting. How could Bella last 200 years of this, I couldn't last a couple minutes. Our car arrived first, I took out my luggage and went straight upstairs to my room to set it down and go see Bella. I wanted to see her quickly, I asked the first person I ran into and asked her where she was. She nodded towards Bella's room and I ran up quickly. I opened the door to see Bella withering in pain on her bed while Aro and an unknown vampire sat beside her. I didn't like this sight, my Bella in pain. It killed me to see her like this, I wished I could take her pain away but I couldn't.
