Theft From the Volturi
Part 3
Volterra, Italy
8:16 PM
Ferdinand and Lorelei strode out of the smoke filled reception area and down the corridor leading to the main hall.
"You were right Ferdy this is much more fun than breaking into boring old museums!" Lorelei quipped.
"Isn't it?" Ferdinand agreed, "According to the floor plans, the vault is through a door on the left side of the main hall."
"Right then." Lorelei announced as they opened the door to the main hall and walked in.
Upon entering they were met with the startled and quizzical expressions of Aro, Marcus, Caius, and Jane; which they studiously ignored as they calmly walked to the door on the left side of the hall.
"Can I help you?" Aro asked the two.
They turned towards the group of puzzled vampires as if just noticing their presence.
"Oh hello there!" Ferdinand answered jovially, "We were just on our way to your vaults, just need a bit of info from the files there, won't be a minute, we know the way."
Aro gaped as they once again headed towards the door and motioned for Jane to intervene.
"I can't allow you to do that!" Jane snapped.
The pair turned to face her and saw that she was very intently staring at them as if trying to cause bodily harm through eye contact.
"Is she okay Ferdy?" Lorelei asked. Ferdinand offered a shrug as Lorelei turned to Aro. "We'll just go about our business and be out of your way, you may want to check on her though," she said motioning to a furious Jane, "she seems a bit…off."
Jane exploded and charged towards Lorelei murderously, with a speed that amazed even the ever unimpressed Marcus, Lorelei sidestepped as Jane went flying past and into the stone wall. The wall cracked from the impact and Jane fell dazed and mumbling to the floor.
"You're right Lore, that one does seem to be a bit off." Ferdinand agreed.
Aro, Marcus, and Caius stood stunned and realized they would have to handle the situation themselves.
"Rip them apart!" Aro growled as they descended upon the intruders.
Two minutes later Lorelei rifled through the vault which held antiquities that would have made historians jaws drop, as Ferdinand flipped through a huge wall of filing cabinets.
"Look at this Ferdy!" Lorelei squealed as she shoved a blood red gemstone the size of a fist under his nose.
"We're only here for the information Lore, we aren't supposed to take anything else." Ferdinand said as he continued to flip through the files.
Lorelei sighed and put down the gem.
"Aha!," Ferdinand exclaimed. "Got what we needed let's get out of here."
Lorelei sat on a moonlit rooftop of Volterra fifteen minutes later gazing at the stars, as Ferdinand talked excitedly on his mobile. A few seconds later he came and sat beside her.
"Well we leave from Rome tomorrow." he informed her. She nodded and continued to look at the stars. He stared at her moonlit face, she was beautiful, and his heart swelled with love. "Oh I nicked something for you on our way out." he added as he passed her the gem from the vault.
"Ferdy I thought we weren't supposed to take anything!" Lorelei scolded.
"I won't tell, if you wont." He said smiling impishly.
"Thank you." she said as she rested her head on his shoulder and purred softly. "Where are we off to by the way?"
"A small town called Forks in Washington state." he answered.
