Chapter 9

"Edward! Tell me what to do?! How are you bleeding?" I asked nervously on the verge of crying. I started ripping up parts from my blouse to cover up his hands. "Bella! Bella! Don't worry. Relax. Breathe. There's no need to wrap my hands." He said flicking me away. "I need to help you! What if you bleed to dea-" I said but stopped short. His face held a smirk. "I'm already dead. This is okay to happen Bella. Just close your eyes and count to five." He told me. I hesitated and began to close them. My long eyelashes gave the impression that my eyes were shut…but they weren't. I was slightly peeking through. Edwards deep cuts began to disappear and as soon as I reached to the number five…they were no longer there. I widened my eyes… and Edward still had that stupid adorable smirk on his face. He grabbed my neck and kissed me long till my lips began to part open… "No time for that now, my love." He said, chuckling. I pouted my bottom lip which was then kissed. I was brought back to the moment from staring into his eyes, when the colossal beasts' paw twitched at my foot. I jumped back and into Edward's arms. "What is the Volturi doing with werewolves? They aren't the best choice for a pet…" I stated.

"They never did become extinct. They've had them here as their guards this whole time… and they want more. Improved ones… shape shifters… and Lestat is more than that." He replied. My mind was filled with more questions than that: where had those stupid brats, Alyssa and Aiden, vanished off to… and where the hell my grandson was. "Should we go through this door?" I asked staring through it. Inside seemed to be pitch black and I wondered if more werewolves lingered inside. "I'm not to sure.." Edward told me. He gulped for the second time… something about werewolves must be more dangerous than what I had in mind.

Groaning and cries interrupted our immobile stance. Edward and I's heads whipped back…and the person I worried I would never see again was walking unsteadily towards me… "Lestat!" I shrieked. With vampire speed I dashed up to him and picked him up into my arms. "Oh, my poor baby! Oh god…" I kept repeating. Tears of joy escaped from my eyes. I kissed my grandson's injured face over and over again. I looked at his broken body up and down. "What do we do now, Edward? We have what we came for…" I said, and I smiled after have said the last part. "We must run. It won't be too late till they realize he's gone…"

"Wait..gran-, grandpa.." Lestat stuttered trying to get his grandfathers attention. "Sssh, baby, sssh, your safe now. Don't worry about anything. I've got you." I said. Ugh. I felt so old. Vampire or not, no one should intend on not feeling old… even if their appearance doesn't look that way. "What is it, Lestat?" Edward questioned him in the gentlest tone. "There- there's no time to run… I've been running from them. There coming for us no- now…" Lestat struggled to say. My eyes widened and I began to hear Lestat's heart accelerate. "If we go through the door… we die… we walk that way…" I pointed to the direction behind us. "We might die too…is there any other way out?!"

"No guys. We have to confront them. Start expanding your shield now though Bella. That's the best protection we have at the moment…" Edward replied back sadly.

"Oh no, it isn't." A beautiful tone commented but who it came from was no where to be seen. "Who are you? Where are you?" I questioned the air surrounding me. Alyssa and Aiden then popped into sight in front of us. "We're here." Alyssa said, with her pearly white teeth shining as she smiled. I gawked at their sudden appearance. "How did you know we were down here? We thought you abandoned us.. Where did you go? Why did you g-"Aiden cut me off and said "We had to get what we wanted before we battled alongside you guys. Excuse our unmentioned disappearance." And he smiled an even greater smile than his partner.

"Well that's inexcusable! You should have told us you wanted to free load off of us! Why couldn't you guys just use your unique powers and get here on your own, huh?!" I screamed at them, the emotions from the past month had been slightly expressed.

"What's this entire ruckus down here? We could almost hear you from the tip-top of our castle." A deep and creepily sincere voice said. Lestat's hairs stood up and he jumped out of my arms to stand bravely next to me. Only Aro, Jane, and Demetri cared to come along and catch Lestat. It probably took all Aro's guts to not turn back. My shield was already expanded. I was ready for them.

"I see you've come back for precious Lestat." Aro said.

"Yes we have. And if you would excuse us. We have places to be. Sorry for not being able to hang around and chat…" Alyssa said, making a lead to go through the wooden door. Edward nodded his head at Alyssa, in an obvious "no" sign.

"What a charming young vampire… much to learn doesn't she?" Aro commented, staring at her. She just gave him a "bring it on" on look. Aro seemed flabbergasted, to not be treated with complete respect.

"Yes Aro, she's a companion of Alice…" Edward started saying "Excuse us for being in any form..Rude…"

"Yes… what is this? Sneaking around our castle? I know you and Bella have the decency to come say hello along with my escorts."

"Yes sir, pardon us… we- w" Edward began to say more but Aro, came an inch in front of the two of us, and grabbed our necks tightly.

"Pardon me, for this…" he pushed his nails in harder into our necks "but what you have come back for is not what you Americans would say 'a piece of cake'. You are not getting your grandson back."
