Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bella's POV
The prophecy book was one of the most accurate book of prophecies. Everything in it has happened to the exact detail. It is kind of creepy that I was going to see what is going to happen in the war. Maybe it would tell us who lives and who dies. I knew that someone would die. I knew because life is full of tragedy and we don't always have a happy ending.
I opened the book and began to read. Some of it was reference to the past.
'A vampire shall bury a potato and shall be cursed to speak only in riddles-1920' I read.
Who the hell writes this stuff? Remind me never to bury a potato I told myself.
I skimmed through it. I got to my time period and that's when I got to reading.
It mentioned a war with the Volturi.
A time will come when we face vampire against vampire.
In the darkened sky the flame will fall
When day becomes night
Upon the unwilling victim
The chosen leader
The Vampiress Isabella
The one to lead the victory
Under the blue flame she will…die
To save those dear to her she will perish under the flame
Those who oppose her will also perish in the fire
The vampire race will be safe
I closed the book. So that was my fate. I was to die.
It hurt to know this but I knew that it would save the vampire race. It was my duty. I could not think about myself. Everyone depended on me.
With that I began to write. I began to write the letters to all those I cared about. I sealed them a placed them on my desk. They would find them.
After I was done, I walked downstairs. Everyone was there.
Reese noticed me first.
"Well what did it say? Did you find out who wins?" She asked.
"The battle will be on the next eclipse." I told her.
"That's not far. It's only a week away. We don't have time. We have to prepare and train the other idiots," Reese said slightly hysterically. The Cullens raised protest when they were called idiots. I laughed.
"Well we have to get some weapons. They have all the weapons and we are going to have to steal them," I told her. The Cullens looked confused.
"You need to talk to someone about the fact that you're a kleptomaniac," She said chuckling.
"What do you mean weapons? Vampires aren't affected by weapons that humans invented," Edward asked with a confused look.
"Well that would be a problem if humans invented them. Vampires in the Volturi invented weapons that can pierce vampire skin," I replied lazily.
"Who were the vampires," He kept on questioning.
I smiled.
"The Vampiress."
They all looked at us in shock. Why was everyone doing that? Were they questioning my cleverness?
"Why would you invent weapons against vampires?" Alice asked.
I sighed. "Alice," I said in a testy voice. "I am an assassin. Don't you think that that stuff would come in handy?" Realization hit her face.
"Well Reese and Everyone in the Vampiress we are going to go steal stuff. I want Reese, Kira, and Alicia will come with me. The rest of you will stay here and make sure nothing happens," I order. The Cullens roared in protest. I sighed. I didn't have time to bother with that whining bunch.
"We want to fight. We want to help," Alice yelled.
"You could get hurt," Edward yelled.
"Silence," I said in a deadly calm voice. "You are not trained enough yet to go on a mission like this. You will stay here like the good vampires you are and leave the hard stuff to me. You will not leave this house. Do you hear me?" I said menacingly. No one answered.
"I said do you hear me?" There were replies of yes.
I walked out and Reese, Kira, and Alicia followed.
"Listen when we get there we need to make sure that no guards spot us and we need to get ALL of the weapons. Leave none of them behind. We don't want them to have any weapons. O.K. ladies lets go," My voice rang with authority.
We ran instead of driving. We didn't want them to hear us. We approached slowly.
There was a guard. One guard in the armory. They never learn. I motioned for them to knock him unconscious. I didn't want any deaths. They quickly knocked him unconscious. We snuck in with stealth. There were weapons on the west wall. We quickly collected all the weapons. I knew this wasn't all of them.
"Search. This isn't all of them!" I hissed.
"I found them," Reese stage whispered.
She went to pick up the sword. I pushed her out of the way and grabbed the sword. Pain shot through me. I was paralyzed. The sword had some sort of magic put on it. Dammit!
"What happening," Reese was frightened. They all tried to help me escape the prison of the sword. I forced all my magic forward. I let energy flow through me. Soon the magic let go of its hold.
"What have I taught you? Never pick up pointy foreign objects. Also there is the fact that it was hidden. That was a big no-no," I scolded like she was a child.
"Sorry."
"Fine let's get out of here! I don't want to get caught. I mean seriously we are stealing the weapons. Do you think they are just going to happy about that? I feel like I am talking to second graders. (No offence to second graders)"
They quickly snuck out of the armory. I heard footsteps. I motioned for them to stop.
"I found him here. He was unconscious. Only certain people could have done that," It was Felix. Shit he lived. Shit he knows that we are here. SHIT!!!!
We have to get out of here. I mouthed. I knew that we all wouldn't escape. They looked at me. They knew what I was planning to do. NO they all mouthed.
Go I mouthed back. They wouldn't refuse because I ordered it. I walked out into the light.
"Hello boys." The other guy with him was Alec. "Did I miss the party," I mocked.
They grabbed from behind.
"Are we going for a walk?" I asked.
I was brought into the training room. Aro, Marcus, and Caius were waiting for us.
"Bella dear, you have returned," Aro said happily.
"Please. They are bringing me against my will. Do you think I would be here otherwise," I snarled.
"Well. You have been stealing from the armory. You have to be punished traitor," Marcus snarled back.
He grabbed the sword. I was turned around. My back was facing Marcus and his brothers. Marcus started to carve into my back. It felt like he was carving words. I would not show any sign of pain. I kept my mouth shut. I knew that if I escaped too soon then the girls wouldn't have time to escape. I had to escape and try not to lead them back to the safe house.
When Marcus was done he stepped back to admire his work. I couldn't sense the girls anywhere so I knew that I could escape now. I kicked Marcus. He lat go of the sword. I caught it. I looked at Felix, who still had a hold on my arm. I yanked out of his grasp. I grabbed him and tossed him into the wall. I ran outside. How the hell was I going to get out of here?
Someone tackled me from the side. I looked and saw Jane. She was holding onto my ankle.
"Get off of me bitch," I yelled at her. I kicked her in the face.
I got up. I surrounded by the Volturi guard.
Shit!
I just wanted to be at the safe house. I suddenly felt like I was spinning. I looked around and saw that I was at the safe house. Looks like I have a new power.
Reese's POV
We walked into the safe house. Everyone was waiting there. All three of us were worried. She was probably being tortured right now. It was all because of my mistake. How could I not have enough common sense to not touch that sword?
"Where is Bella," Edward asked.
"She was captured," I replied.
"WHAT," Everyone roared.
"Don't worry she can take care of herself," Kira told them.
"Why didn't you rescue her?" Edward asked outraged.
"She ordered us to go. If you knew Bella at all you would know that you never disobey a direct order from her," I yelled.
"We have to go find her," Alice said.
Bella's POV
We have to go find her," I heard Alice say.
"You mean me," I said as I stepped into the house.
"Bella," Edward yelled. He ran over and hugged me. I pried him off of me.
"Cullen how many times do I have to tell you that I am not the hugging type," I said.
He looked hurt.
"I have a new power. I can teleport to different places when I want," I told them.
"It will prove to be useful," Reese said.
I nodded and walked toward the stairs to change clothes.
"Bella what happened to your back," Edward asked.
"Its none of your concern," I replied.
He grabbed my arm. The others had gathered to look at my back. They all looked murderous.
I sighed.
"What does it say Reese?" I asked her.
"Traitor," She replied.
"Well it will heal eventually," I said. I was about to head upstairs when Edward grabbed my arm again.
"Can I help you?" I asked in a cold voice.
He just shook his head and let go.
"I was just worried about you," Edward said. I rolled my eyes.
"You have no right to care," I replied before I walked upstairs.
I changed and started sharpening the weapons.
Parker entered the room.
"What do you want?" I asked going back to my sharpening.
"I have a proposition for you. You become my mate and I don't tell them about your past. You have a very dark past and I don't think that the Cullens would be so keen to help someone with your past," He said smirking.
"You can't threaten me. The Vampiress know of my past and if you tell anyone else about that past I will kill you on the spot," I snarled. There was a deadly look in my eye.
He looked scared and backed up. I walked past him and walked out the back door. I needed to walk. I needed to ponder my death. I was walking for about 15 minutes when I heard footsteps. I whipped around to see Reese.
"Hey I need to talk to you," she sounded serious.
"Well."
"Um I'm in love with Ben from the other coven. I want you to approve," She stuttered.
I looked at her. I looked her straight in the eye.
"I approve. I don't want you to be lonely. I don't want anyone to," I said. I knew that I would never get a chance to be with someone like that. I looked down. She came and hugged me.
"You don't have to be lonely either. You know that Edward loves you a lot. The Vampiress wouldn't mind to see their leader happy," She said.
"Reese, I'm going to be okay. Don't worry about me. I want to say that whatever happens in the war, I want you and the others to be happy," I told her.
"Do you know something I don't?" Reese asked.
"You'll know soon," that was all I said.
I walked into the house where everyone was.
"Now that we have weapons and we have to get to training," I told them and they nodded.
"Well let's get to work."
